Ladies
and Gentlemen:
This
letter agreement is to memorialize our agreement concerning the conversion
of
all amounts outstanding under the Notes into shares of the common stock
(“Nesco Common
Stock”)
of
Nesco Industries, Inc., the indirect parent of the Company (“Nesco”).
The
Lender acknowledges that Nesco has a strong need to raise capital that will
enable it to restructure its balance sheet and provide working capital for
the
recent asset acquisitions by the Company. The Lender further acknowledges that
Nesco is currently negotiating a financing arrangement that will provide it
with
the needed capital (the “Financing”).
In
order to induce the proposed lender to provide the Financing and to reorganize
the outstanding indebtedness of Nesco and the Company, Nesco and the Company
are
proposing the conversion to Nesco Common Stock of the amounts under the Notes.
The Lender acknowledges that it is in the best interest of Lender, as well
as
the best interest of Nesco and the Company, that the Company close the
Financing. In consideration of the foregoing and the covenants and agreements
of
the parties contained in this letter agreement, Nesco, the Company and the
Lender are hereby entering into the following agreements.
Subject
to and contingent on the closing of the Financing (the “Closing”),
the
parties agree as follows:
1. The
Notes
shall cease accruing interest as of January 31, 2007 and, simultaneously with
the Closing, the Company shall pay to Agent for distribution to the Lender
and
the Investors an amount equal to $78,723.84 representing all amounts of interest
accrued on the Notes but unpaid to the date of Closing, which payment shall
be
made by check or by wire transfer of immediately available funds (the
“Cash
Payment”).
2. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained in the Purchase Agreement, the Notes or
the
Security Agreement, including without limitation, the provisions of Section
2 of
the Purchase Agreement, upon the Closing [$Insert Amount], representing the
full
amount of the principal outstanding under the Notes, shall be automatically
be
converted into the right to receive [Insert Number] shares of Nesco Common
Stock, at $0.0022 per share, and warrants to purchase [Insert Number] shares
of
Nesco Common Stock (the “Warrants”),
which
shares of Nesco Common Stock (the “Conversion
Shares”)
and
Warrants shall be issuable as follows: (a) the Warrants and [Insert Number]
shares of Nesco Common Stock shall be issued to the Lender promptly following
the Initial Common Stock Increase and (b) [Insert Number] shares of Nesco Common
Stock shall be issued to the Lender promptly following the Second Common Stock
Increase. For purposes of this letter agreement, the “Initial Common
Stock Increase”
shall
mean such time as Nesco has filed with the Secretary of State of Nevada an
amendment to Nesco’s Articles of Incorporation to increase Nesco’s authorized
common stock to 400 million shares and the “Second
Common Stock Increase”
shall
mean such time as Nesco has obtained the approval of its shareholders at a
special meeting or annual meeting to increase Nesco’s shares of common stock in
accordance with the Financing and has filed with the Secretary of State of
Nevada an amendment to Nesco’s Articles of Incorporation to so increase Nesco’s
authorized common stock. The provisions of Section 2 of the Purchase Agreement
are hereby waived by the Lender in connection with the Financing.
3. In
connection with the issuance of the Conversion Shares and the Warrants, the
Lender hereby makes the representations and warranties set forth on Schedule
B
attached
hereto. The Lender understands that Nesco and the Company are relying on such
representations and warranties in connection with the issuance of the Conversion
Shares.
4. Upon
receipt by the Agent of the Cash Payment, the security interest granted to
the
Lender pursuant to the Security Agreement shall automatically expire and be
deemed released, and the Company shall be permitted to file UCC termination
statements with respect thereto.
5. Upon
receipt by Lender of all of the Conversion Shares and the Warrant,
the
Notes
shall be cancelled and Lender shall, automatically and without further action
of
the parties, release Nesco, the Company and their respective officers,
directors, employees and agents, and each of its successors and assigns from
all
causes of action, debts, contracts, demands and claims of every kind and nature,
whether known or unknown and whether in law or in equity, that the Lender had,
now have, or hereafter can, shall or may have with respect to the Notes, the
Security Agreement or the Purchase Agreement.
Each
of
the foregoing agreements set forth in paragraphs 1 through 5, inclusive, of
this
letter agreement are expressly made subject to the Closing, and none of such
agreements shall be effective unless and until such time as the Closing occurs.
If the Closing has not occurred on or prior to February 28, 2007, this letter
agreement shall automatically terminate and shall be of no further force and
effect, and neither the Company nor the Lender shall have any obligations to
the
other hereunder.
2
Nothing
in this letter
agreement shall be construed as an admission of any liability by any of the
parties or as a release of any claim or obligation other than as specifically
set forth above.
This
letter agreement is binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties
hereto and their respective heirs, successors and assigns. No persons other
than
Nesco, the Company and the Lender are intended to be benefited by this letter
agreement or to have rights hereunder as third-party beneficiaries or
otherwise.
This
letter agreement shall be deemed to be a contract made under, and to be
construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York, without giving
effect to conflicts of law.
If
any
provision of this letter agreement is held to be invalid, illegal or
unenforceable, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not
invalidate this letter agreement as a whole, but rather this letter agreement
shall be construed as though it did not contain the particular provision held
to
be invalid, illegal or unenforceable and the rights and obligations of the
parties hereto shall be construed and enforced only to such extent as may be
permitted by applicable law.
This
letter agreement may be executed by the parties in one or more counterparts,
each of which will be deemed an original but all of which will constitute one
and the same instrument.
If
the
foregoing accurately memorializes our agreement to settle the matters described
above, please sign below.
Very
truly yours,
Nesco
Industries, Inc.
