Date as the U.S. Firm Securities bear to all the Firm Securities. The Company
agrees to sell to the Managers such International Optional Securities specified
in such notice and the Managers agree, severally and not jointly, to purchase
such International Optional Securities. The International Optional Securities
shall be purchased for the account of each Manager in the same proportion as the
number of shares of International Firm Securities set forth opposite such
Manager's name bears to the total number of shares of International Firm
Securities (subject to adjustment by CSFBC to eliminate fractions). The Optional
Securities may be purchased by the U.S. Underwriters and the Managers only for
the purpose of covering over-allotments made in connection with the sale of the
Firm Securities. No Optional Securities shall be sold or delivered unless the
related Firm Securities previously have been, or simultaneously are, sold and
delivered. The right to purchase the Optional Securities or any portion thereof
may be exercised from time to time and to the extent not previously exercised
may be surrendered and terminated at any time upon notice by CSFBC on behalf of
the U.S. Underwriters and the Managers to the Company.
Each time for the delivery of and payment for the
International Optional Securities, being herein referred to as an "Optional
Closing Date", which may be the First Closing Date (the First Closing Date and
each Optional Closing Date, if any, being sometimes referred to as a "Closing
Date"), shall be determined by CSFBC but shall be not later than seven full
business days after written notice of election to purchase Optional Securities
is given. The Company will deliver the International Optional Securities being
purchased on each Optional Closing Date to CSFBL for the accounts of the several
Managers, against payment of the purchase price therefor in Federal (same day)
funds by official bank check or checks or wire transfer to an account at a bank
acceptable to CSFBL drawn to the order of CalEnergy Company, Inc., at the above
office of Skadden, Arps, Slate, Xxxxxxx & Xxxx LLP. The certificates for the
International Optional Securities will be in definitive form, in such
denominations and registered in such names as CSFBL requests upon reasonable
notice prior to such Optional Closing Date and will be made available for
checking and packaging at the above office of CSFBC, at a reasonable time in
advance of such Optional Closing Date.
The Company will pay to the Managers as aggregate compensation
for their commitments hereunder and for their services in connection with the
purchase of the International Securities and the management of the offering
thereof, if the sale and delivery of the International Securities to the
Managers provided herein is consummated, an amount equal to U.S. $1.23 per
International
15
Security purchased, which may be divided among the Managers in such proportions
as they may determine. Such payment will be made on the First Closing Date in
the case of the International Firm Securities and on each Optional Closing Date
in the case of the International Optional Securities sold to the Manager on such
Closing Date, in each case by way of deduction by the Managers of said amount
from the purchase price for the International Securities referred to above.
4. Offering by Underwriters. It is understood that the several
Managers propose to offer the International Securities for sale to the public
as, and upon the terms and conditions, set forth in the International
Prospectus.
5. Certain Agreements of the Company. The Company agrees with
the several Managers that:
(a) The Company will file each of the Prospectuses with the
Commission pursuant to and in accordance with subparagraph (2) (or, if
applicable and if consented to by CSFBL, subparagraph (5)) of Rule
424(b) not later than the second business day following the execution
and delivery of this Agreement. The Company will advise CSFBL promptly
of any such filing pursuant to Rule 424(b).
(b) The Company will advise CSFBL promptly of any proposal to
amend or supplement the Registration Statement or either of the
Prospectuses and will not effect such amendment or supplementation
without CSFBL's prior consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld; and the Company will also advise CSFBL promptly of the
effectiveness of any amendment or supplementation of the Registration
Statement or either of the Prospectuses and of the institution by the
Commission of any stop order proceedings in respect of the Registration
Statement and will use its reasonable best efforts to prevent the
issuance of any such stop order and to obtain as soon as possible its
lifting, if issued.
(c) If, at any time when a prospectus relating to the Offered
Securities is required, in the opinion of counsel for the U.S.
Underwriters and Managers, to be delivered under the Act in connection
with sales by any U.S. Underwriter, Manager or dealer, any event occurs
as a result of which either or both of the Prospectuses as then amended
or supplemented would include an untrue statement of a material fact or
omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements
therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made,
not misleading, or if it is
16
necessary at any such time to amend either or both Prospectuses to
comply with the Act, the Company will promptly notify CSFBL of such
event and will promptly prepare and file with the Commission, at its
own expense, an amendment or supplement which will correct such
statement or omission or an amendment which will effect such
compliance. Neither CSFBL's consent to, nor the Managers' delivery of,
any such amendment or supplement shall constitute a waiver of any of
the conditions set forth in Section 6.
(d) As soon as practicable, but not later than 16 months after
the date of this Agreement, the Company will make generally available
to its securityholders an earnings statement (which need not be
audited) covering a period of at least 12 months beginning after the
later of (i) the effective date of the most recent post-effective
amendment to the Registration Statement to become effective prior to
the date of this Agreement and (ii) the date of the Company's most
recent Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Commission prior to
the date of this Agreement, which will satisfy the provisions of
Section 11(a) of the Act.
(e) The Company will furnish to the Managers copies of the
Registration Statement (six of which will be signed and will include
all exhibits), each preliminary prospectus and preliminary prospectus
supplement relating to the International Securities, and, until
completion of the distribution of the International Securities as
determined by CSFBL, the International Prospectus and all amendments
and supplements to such documents, in each case as soon as available
and in such quantities as CSFBL requests. The Company will pay the
expenses of printing and distributing to the Managers all such
documents.
(f) The Company will arrange for the qualifications of the
Offered Securities for sale under the laws of such jurisdictions in the
United States as CSFBC designates and will continue such qualifications
in effect so long as required for the distribution, provided that, in
connection therewith the Company shall not, with respect to any such
jurisdiction, be required to qualify as a foreign corporation, to file
a general consent to service of process or to take any other action
that would subject it to service of process in suits other than those
arising out of the offering of the Offered Securities or to taxation in
respect of doing business in any jurisdiction in which it is not
otherwise subject.
17
(g) During the period of three years hereafter, the Company
will furnish to CSFBL and, upon request, to each of the other Managers,
as soon as practicable, after the end of each fiscal year, a copy of
its annual report to stockholders for such year; and the Company will
furnish to CSFBL as soon as available, a copy of each report and any
definitive proxy statement of the Company filed with the Commission
under the Exchange Act or mailed to stockholders.
(h) The Company will pay all expenses incident to the
performance of its obligations under this Agreement and will reimburse
the Managers (if and to the extent incurred by them) for any travel
expenses of the Company's officers and employees and any other expenses
of the Company in connection with attending or hosting meetings with
prospective purchasers of the Offered Securities and for expenses
incurred in distributing preliminary prospectuses, preliminary
prospectus supplements and the Prospectuses (including any amendments
and supplements thereto) to the Managers.
(i) The Company will indemnify and hold harmless the Managers
against any documentary, stamp or similar issuance tax, including any
interest and penalties, on the creation, issuance and sale of the
Offered Securities and on the execution and delivery of this Agreement.
All payments to be made by the Company hereunder shall be made without
withholding or deduction for or on account of any present or future
taxes, duties or governmental charges whatsoever unless the Company is
compelled by law to deduct or withhold such taxes, duties or charges.
In that event, the Company shall pay such additional amounts as may be
necessary in order that the net amounts received after such withholding
or deduction shall equal the amounts that would have been received if
no withholding or deduction had been made.
(j) For a period of 90 days after the date of the initial
public offering of the Offered Securities, neither the Company nor any
of its directors or officers will offer, sell, contract to sell, pledge
or otherwise dispose of, directly or indirectly, or file with the
Commission a registration statement under the Act relating to, any
shares of the Securities, or any securities that are convertible into
or exercisable or exchangeable for, or that represent the right to
receive, shares of the Securities or publicly disclose the intention to
make any such offer, sale, pledge, disposal or filing, without the
prior written consent of CSFBC, except (i) issuances of
18
Securities pursuant to the conversion or exchange of convertible or
exchangeable securities or the exercise of warrants or options, in each
case outstanding on the date hereof, (ii) grants of employee stock
options pursuant to the terms of a plan in effect on the date hereof,
or issuances of Securities pursuant to the exercise of such options;
(iii) sales of Securities pursuant to employee stock benefit plans in
effect on the date hereof, and (iv) filing with the Commission a
registration statement relating to the Securities described in the
preceding clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) . The Company shall, concurrently
with the execution of this Agreement, deliver to CSFBC an agreement
executed by each of the directors and officers of the Company pursuant
to which each such person agrees, not to offer, sell, contract to sell,
pledge, grant any option to purchase, or otherwise dispose of any of
the Company's Securities or any securities convertible into or
exercisable or exchangeable for such Securities for a period of 90 days
after the date of the initial public offering of the Offered
Securities.
(k) The Company shall apply the net proceeds from the sale of
the Offered Securities as set forth in the Prospectuses.
(l) No action has been or, prior to the completion of the
distribution of the Offered Securities, will be taken by the Company in
any jurisdiction outside the United States that would permit a public
offering of the Offered Securities, or possession or distribution of
the International Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto,
or any related preliminary prospectus or preliminary prospectus
supplement issued in connection with the offering of the Offered
Securities, or any other offering material, in any country or
jurisdiction where action for that purpose is required.

International Optional Securities to be purchased on each Optional
Closing Date will be subject to the accuracy of the representations and

development or event involving a prospective change the financial
condition, business or results of operations of the Company, the

judgment of CSFBL, is material and adverse and makes it impractical or
inadvisable to proceed with completion of the public offering or the
sale of and payment for the International Securities; (ii) any
downgrading in the rating of any debt securities or preferred stock of
the Company by any "nationally recognized statistical rating
organization" (as defined for purposes of Rule 436(g) under the Act),

surveillance or review its rating of any debt securities or preferred
stock of the Company (other than an announcement with positive

downgrading, of such rating); (iii) any suspension or limitation of

as amended and supple-
27
mented as of the date of this Agreement or the Closing Date, contain
any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material
fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the

made, not misleading or (II), in the case of the General Counsel of the
Company, any document incorporated by reference in the Prospectuses or
any further amendment or supplement to such incorporated document made
by the Company prior to the Closing Date when they became effective or
were filed with the Commission, as the case may be, contained, in the
case of a registration statement that became effective under the Act,
any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material

related matters as the CSFBL may require, and the Company shall have
furnished to such counsel such documents as they request for the
purpose of enabling them to pass upon such matters.
(h) The Managers shall have received a certificate, dated such
Closing Date, of the President or any Vice-President and a principal

investigation, the representations and warranties of the Company in
this Agreement and the Underwriting Agreement are true and correct in
all material respects, that the Company has complied with all
agreements and satisfied all conditions on its part to be performed or
satisfied hereunder at or prior to such Closing Date, that no stop
order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement has
been issued and no proceedings for that purpose have been instituted or
are contemplated by the Commission and that, subsequent to the date of
the most recent financial statements included or incorporated by
reference in the Prospectuses, there has been no material
28
adverse change, nor any development or event involving a prospective
material adverse change, in the financial condition, business or
results of operations of the Company, the Subsidiaries and the Joint
Ventures taken as a whole except as set forth in or contemplated by the
Prospectuses or as described in such certificate.
(i) The Managers shall have received letters, dated such
Closing Date, of Deloitte & Touche LLP and such other independent

than three days prior to such Closing Date for the purposes of this

subject only to notice of issuance thereof.

adverse change, or a development which is reasonably likely to lead to
a material adverse change, in the financial condition, business or
results of operations of the Company, the Subsidiaries and the Joint
Ventures taken as a whole and (ii) except as disclosed in the
Prospectuses, there shall not have been any transactions entered into
by the Company, the Subsidiaries or any Joint Venture, other than those
in the ordinary course of business, which are material and adverse to
the Company, the Subsidiaries and the Joint Ventures taken as a whole,
and which, in the judgment of CSFBL, make it impracticable or
inadvisable to proceed with the public offering or the delivery of the
Offered Securities on the terms and in the manner contemplated in the
Prospectuses.
The Company will furnish the Managers with such conformed copies of such
opinions, certificates, letters and documents as the Managers reasonably
request. CSFBL may in its sole discretion waive on behalf of the Managers
compliance with any conditions to the obligations of the Managers hereunder,
whether in respect of an Optional Closing Date or otherwise.
29
7. Indemnification and Contribution. (a) The Company will
indemnify and hold harmless each Manager against any losses, claims, damages or
liabilities, joint or several, to which such Manager may become subject, under
the Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or
actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement
or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in the Registration
Statement, either of the Prospectuses, or any amendment or supplement thereto,
or any related preliminary prospectus or preliminary prospectus supplement, or
arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein
a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the
statements therein (with respect to the Prospectuses, in light of the
circumstances under which they were made) not misleading, and will reimburse
each Manager for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such Manager
in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage,
liability or action as such expenses are incurred; provided, however, that the
Company will not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss,
claim, damage or liability or action arises out of or is based upon an untrue
statement or alleged untrue statement in or omission or alleged omission from
any of such documents in reliance upon and in conformity with written
information furnished to the Company by or on behalf of any Manager through
CSFBL specifically for use therein, it being understood and agreed that the only
information furnished by any Manager consists of the information described as
such in subsection (b) below; and provided, further, that, with respect to any
untrue statement or omission in the Preliminary Prospectus dated September 22,
1997, as supplemented by the International Preliminary Prospectus Supplement and
the U.S. Preliminary Prospectus Supplement both dated September 24, 1997 (as
supplemented, collectively the "Preliminary Prospectuses"), this indemnity
agreement shall not inure to the benefit of any Manager on account of any loss,
claim, damage, liability or action arising from the sale of any Offered
Securities to any person by that Manager if that Manager failed to send or give
a copy of the Prospectuses, as the same may be amended or supplemented, to that
person within the time required by the Act, and the untrue statement or alleged
untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a
material fact in such Preliminary Prospectuses was corrected in the Prospectuses
and the Prospectuses were made available to the Managers prior to the sale of
the Offered Securities. For purposes of the last proviso to the immediately
preceding sentence, the term "Prospectuses" shall not be deemed to include the
documents incorporated by reference therein, and no Manager shall be obligated
to send or give any supplement or amendment to any document incorporated by
reference in the Preliminary Prospectuses or Prospectus any person other than a
person to
30
whom such Manager had delivered such incorporated document or documents in
response to a written request therefor.
(b) Each Manager will severally and not jointly indemnify and
hold harmless the Company against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities to
which the Company may become subject, under the Act or otherwise, insofar as
such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof)
arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement
of any material fact contained in the Registration Statement, either of the
Prospectuses, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or any related preliminary
prospectus or preliminary prospectus supplement, or arise out of or are based
upon the omission or the alleged omission to state therein a material fact
required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (with
respect to the Prospectuses, in the light of the circumstances under which they
were made) not misleading, in each case to the extent, but only to the extent,
that such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged
omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information
furnished to the Company by or on behalf of such Manager through CSFBL
specifically for use therein, and will reimburse the Company for any legal or
other expenses reasonably incurred by the Company in connection with
investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action as
such expenses are incurred, it being understood and agreed that the only such
information furnished by any Manager consists of the following information in
the International Prospectus furnished on behalf of each Manager: the last
paragraph at the bottom of the cover page concerning the terms of the offering
by the Managers, the legend concerning over-allotments and stabilizing on the
inside cover page, the concession and reallowance figures appearing in the fifth
paragraph in the section "Subscription and Sale," the information relating to
the Intersyndicate Agreement in paragraphs 6 and 7 in the section "Subscription
and Sale", the information relating to over-allotments and stabilizing in the
11th paragraph in the section "Subscription and Sale" and the information in the
8th and 12th paragraphs in the section "Subscription and Sale".
(c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this
Section of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party
will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party
under subsection (a) or (b) above, notify the indemnifying party of the
commencement thereof; but the omission so to notify the indemnifying party will
not relieve it from any liability which it may have to any indemnified party
otherwise than under subsection (a) or (b) above, except to the extent it has
been materially prejudiced by such failure; and provided, further, that such
omission will not
31
relieve it from any liability which it may otherwise have to an indemnified
party. In case any such action is brought against any indemnified party and it
notifies the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying
party will be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it may
wish, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, to assume
the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified
party and after notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of
its election so to assume the defense thereof, the indemnifying party will not
be liable to such indemnified party under this Section for any legal or other
expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the
defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation; provided, however,
that the indemnified party shall have the right to employ counsel to represent
the indemnified party and its controlling persons who may be subject to
liability arising out of any claim in respect of which indemnity may be sought
by the indemnified party against the indemnifying party under this Section 7 if
the employment of such counsel shall have been authorized in writing by the
indemnifying party in connection with the defense of such action or, if in the
written opinion of counsel to either the indemnifying party or the indemnified
party, representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate
due to actual or likely conflicts of interest between them, and in that event
the fees and expenses of one firm of separate counsel (in addition to the fees
and expenses of local counsel) shall be paid by the indemnifying party. No
indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified
party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, effect any settlement
of any pending or threatened action in respect of which any indemnified party is
or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by
such indemnified party unless such settlement includes an unconditional release
of such indemnified party from all liability on any claims that are the subject
matter of such action. The indemnifying party shall not be liable for any
settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent.
(d) If the indemnification provided for in this Section is
unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party under
subsection (a) or (b) above, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to
the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of the losses,
claims, damages or liabilities referred to in subsection (a) or (b) above (i) in
such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by
the Company on the one hand and the Managers on the other from the offering of
the International Securities or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i)
above is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate
to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but
also the relative fault of the Company
32
on the one hand and the Managers on the other in connection with the statements
or omissions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities as
well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits
received by the Company on the one hand and the Managers on the other shall be
deemed to be in the same proportion as the total net proceeds from the offering
of the International Securities (before deducting expenses) received by the
Company bear to the total underwriting discounts and commissions received by the
Managers. The relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other
things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the
omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information
supplied by the Company or the Managers and the parties' relative intent,
knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such
untrue statement or omission. The amount paid by an indemnified party as a
result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to in the first
sentence of this subsection (d) shall be deemed to include any legal or other
expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with
investigating or defending any action or claim which is the subject of this
subsection (d). Notwithstanding the provisions of this subsection (d), no
Manager shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by
which the total price at which the International Securities underwritten by it
and distributed to the public were offered to the public exceeds the amount of
any damages which such Manager has otherwise been required to pay by reason of
such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No
person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section
11(f) of the Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not
guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The Managers' obligations in this
subsection (d) to contribute are several in proportion to their respective
underwriting obligations and not joint.
(e) The obligations of the Company under this Section shall be
in addition to any liability which the Company may otherwise have and shall
extend, upon the same terms and conditions, to each director, officer, employee
and agent of the Managers and to each person, if any, who controls any Manager
within the meaning of the Act; and the obligations of the Managers under this
Section shall be in addition to any liability which the respective Managers may
otherwise have and shall extend, upon the same terms and conditions, to each
director of the Company, to each officer of the Company who has signed the
Registration Statement and to each person, if any, who controls the Company
within the meaning of the Act.
33
8. Default of Managers. If any Manager or Managers default in
their obligations to purchase International Securities hereunder on either the
First or any Optional Closing Date and the aggregate number of shares of
International Securities that such defaulting Manager or Managers agreed but
failed to purchase does not exceed 10% of the total number of shares of
International Securities that the Managers are obligated to purchase on such
Closing Date, CSFBL may make arrangements satisfactory to the Company for the
purchase of such International Securities by other persons, including any of the
Managers, but if no such arrangements are made by such Closing Date, the
non-defaulting Managers shall be obligated severally, in proportion to their
respective commitments hereunder, to purchase the International Securities that
such defaulting Managers agreed but failed to purchase on such Closing Date. If
any Manager or Managers so default and the aggregate number of shares of
International Securities with respect to which such default or defaults occur
exceeds 10% of the total number of shares of International Securities that the
Managers are obligated to purchase on such Closing Date and arrangements
satisfactory to CSFBL and the Company for the purchase of such International
Securities by other persons are not made within 36 hours after such default,
this Agreement will terminate without liability on the part of any
non-defaulting Manager or the Company, except as provided in Section 9 (provided
that if such default occurs with respect to International Optional Securities
after the First Closing Date, this Agreement will not terminate as to the
International Firm Securities or any International Optional Securities purchased
prior to such termination). As used in this Agreement, the term "Manager"
includes any person substituted for a Manager under this Section. Nothing herein
will relieve a defaulting Manager from liability for its default.
9. Survival of Certain Representations and Obligations. The
respective indemnities, agreements, representations, warranties and other
statements of the Company or its officers and of the several Managers set forth
in or made pursuant to this Agreement will remain in full force and effect,
regardless of any investigation, or statement as to the results thereof, made by
or on behalf of any Manager, the Company or any of their respective
representatives, officers or directors or any controlling person, and will
survive delivery of and payment for the International Securities. If this
Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 8 or if for any reason the purchase
of the International Securities by the Managers is not consummated, the Company
shall remain responsible for the expenses to be paid or reimbursed by it
pursuant to Section 5 and the respective obligations of the Company and the
Managers pursuant to Section 7 shall remain in effect and if any International
Securities have been purchased hereunder the representations and warranties in
Section 7 and all obligations under Section 5 shall also remain in
34
effect. If the purchase of the International Securities by the Managers is not
consummated for any reason other than solely because of the termination of this
Agreement pursuant to Section 8 or the occurrence of any event specified in
clause (iii), (iv), or (v) of Section 6(c), the Company will reimburse the
Managers for all out-of-pocket expenses (including fees and disbursements of
counsel) reasonably incurred by them in connection with the offering of the
International Securities; provided that the Company shall not be obligated under
this Section 9 to reimburse the U.S. Underwriters or the Managers for any
expenses (including fees and disbursements of counsel) reasonably incurred by
them in connection with the offering of the Offered Securities in excess of
$250,000.
10. Notices. All communications hereunder will be in writing
and, if sent to the Managers, will be mailed, delivered or telegraphed and
confirmed to CSFBL at Xxx Xxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxxx X00 0XX, Xxxxxxx, Attention:
Company Secretary, or, if sent to the Company, will be mailed, delivered or
telegraphed and confirmed to it at 000 Xxxxx 00xx Xxxxxx, Xxxxx 000, Xxxxx,
Xxxxxxxx 00000, Attention: General Counsel; provided, however, that any notice
to a Manager pursuant to Section 7 will be mailed, delivered or telegraphed and
confirmed to such Manager.
11. Successors. This Agreement will inure to the benefit of
and be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective successors and the
officers and directors and controlling persons referred to in Section 7, and no
other person will have any right or obligation hereunder.
12. Representation of Managers. CSFBL will act for the several
Managers in connection with this financing, and any action under this Agreement
taken by CSFBL will be binding upon all the Managers.
13. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number
of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but all such
counterparts shall together constitute one and the same Agreement.
35
14. Applicable Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, and
construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York, without regard
to principles of conflicts of laws.
The Company hereby submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction
of the Federal and state courts in the Borough of Manhattan in The City of New
York in any suit or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or
the transactions contemplated hereby.
36
If the foregoing is in accordance with the Managers'
understanding of our agreement, kindly sign and return to us the counterparts
hereof, whereupon it will become a binding agreement between the Company and the
several Managers in accordance with its terms.
Very truly yours,
