Sale and Purchase Upon the basis of the representations and warranties and subject to the terms and conditions herein set forth, each of the Selling Stockholders agrees to sell, in each case severally and not jointly, to the respective Underwriters, and each of the Underwriters, severally and not jointly, agrees to purchase from each Selling Stockholder, the respective number of Firm Shares (subject to such adjustment as the Managing Underwriters may determine to avoid fractional shares) which bears the same proportion to the total number of Firm Shares to be sold by such Selling Stockholder, as the number of Firm Shares set forth opposite the name of such Underwriter in Schedule A annexed hereto, subject to adjustment in accordance with Section 11 hereof, bears to the total number of Firm Shares, in each case at a purchase price of $[•] per Share. The Company is advised by you that the Underwriters intend (i) to make a public offering of their respective portions of the Firm Shares as soon after the effective date of the Registration Statement as in your judgment is advisable and (ii) initially to offer the Firm Shares upon the terms set forth in the Prospectus. You may from time to time increase or decrease the public offering price after the initial public offering to such extent as you may determine. In addition, the VEBA Trust hereby grants to the several Underwriters the option (the “Over-Allotment Option”) to purchase, and upon the basis of the representations and warranties and subject to the terms and conditions herein set forth, the Underwriters shall have the right to purchase, severally and not jointly, from the VEBA Trust, ratably in accordance with the number of Firm Shares to be purchased by each of them, all or a portion of the Additional Shares as may be necessary to cover over-allotments made in connection with the offering of the Firm Shares, at the same purchase price per share to be paid by the Underwriters to the Selling Stockholders for the Firm Shares. The Over-Allotment Option may be exercised by the Managing Underwriters on behalf of the several Underwriters at any time and from time to time on or before the thirtieth day following the date of the Prospectus, by written notice to the Company and the VEBA Trust. Such notice shall set forth the aggregate number of Additional Shares as to which the Over-Allotment Option is being exercised and the date and time when the Additional Shares are to be delivered (any such date and time being herein referred to as an “additional time of purchase”); provided, however, that no additional time of purchase shall be earlier than the “time of purchase” (as defined below), nor earlier than the second business day after the date on which the Over-Allotment Option shall have been exercised, nor later than the tenth business day after the date on which the Over-Allotment Option shall have been exercised. Upon any exercise of the Over-Allotment Option, and subject to such adjustment as the Managing Underwriters may determine to avoid fractional shares: (i) the number of Additional Shares to be purchased by each Underwriter, severally and not jointly, shall be the number which bears the same proportion to the aggregate number of Additional Shares being purchased (the “Option Purchased Amount”) as the number of Firm Shares set forth opposite the name of such Underwriter in Schedule A annexed hereto bears to the total number of Firm Shares, subject to adjustment in accordance with Section 11 hereof. Pursuant to powers of attorney (the “Powers of Attorney”) granted by each Selling Stockholder other than the VEBA Trust (which Powers of Attorney shall be satisfactory to the Managing Underwriters), Jxxxxx X. Xxxxxxx, Jxxx X. Xxxxxx and Dxxxxx X. Xxxxxxxxxxxx shall act as representatives of each of the Selling Stockholders with the exception of the VEBA Trust. Each of the foregoing representatives (collectively, the “Representatives of the Selling Stockholders”) is authorized, on behalf of each Selling Stockholder (excluding the VEBA Trust), among other things, to execute any documents necessary or desirable in connection with the sale of the Shares to be sold hereunder by such Selling Stockholder, to make delivery of such Shares (whether in certificated or book-entry form), to provide instructions for the delivery of the proceeds of the sale of such Shares, to give receipts for such proceeds, to pay therefrom the expenses (if any) to be borne by such Selling Stockholder in connection with the sale and public offering of the Shares, to distribute the balance of such proceeds to such Selling Stockholder, to receive notices on behalf of such Selling Stockholder and to take such other action as may be necessary or desirable in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.
