--------------
(a) The Issuer and the Guarantors agree to use their reasonable best
efforts to file with the SEC as soon as practicable after the Closing Date, but
in no event later than the Filing Date, an offer to exchange (the "Exchange
Offer") any and all of the Transfer Restricted Securities for a like aggregate
principal amount of debt securities of the Issuer and the Guarantors which are
substantially identical to the Securities, except that the identity of the
Guarantors may be different from those Subsidiary Guarantors that initially
guaranteed the Securities pursuant to the Indenture so long as the Securities
are at all times guaranteed in compliance with the Indenture (the "Exchange
Securities") (and which are entitled to the benefits of the Indenture or a trust
indenture which is identical to the Indenture (other than such changes to the
Indenture or any such identical trust indenture as are necessary to comply with
any requirements of the SEC to effect or maintain the qualification thereof
under the TIA) and which, in either case, has been qualified under the TIA),
except that the Exchange Securities shall have been registered pursuant to an
effective Registration Statement in compliance with the Securities Act. The
Exchange Offer will be registered pursuant to the Securities Act on the
appropriate form (the "Exchange Registration Statement") and will comply with
all applicable tender offer rules and regulations promulgated pursuant to the
Exchange Act and shall be duly registered or qualified pursuant to all
applicable state securities or Blue Sky laws. The Exchange Offer shall not be
subject to any condition, other than that the Exchange Offer does not violate
any applicable law or interpretation of the Staff of the SEC. No securities
shall be included in the Registration Statement covering the Exchange Offer
other than the Transfer Restricted Securities and the Exchange Securities. The
Issuer and the
3
Guarantors agree to use their reasonable best efforts to (x) cause the Exchange
Registration Statement to become effective pursuant to the Securities Act on or
before the Effectiveness Target Date; (y) keep the Exchange Offer open for not
less than 20 business days (or such longer period required by applicable law)
after the date that the notice of the Exchange Offer referred to below is mailed
to Holders; and (z) consummate the Exchange Offer within 190 days after the
Closing Date. Each Holder who participates in the Exchange Offer will be
required to represent that any Exchange Securities received by it will be
acquired in the ordinary course of its business, that at the time of the
consummation of the Exchange Offer such Holder will have no arrangement or
understanding with any person to participate in the distribution of the Exchange
Securities, and that such Holder is not an affiliate of the Issuer within the
meaning of Rule 405 of the Securities Act (or that if it is such an affiliate,
it will comply with the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the
Securities Act to the extent applicable). Each Holder that is not a
Participating Broker-Dealer will be required to represent that it is not engaged
in, and does not intend to engage in, the distribution of the Exchange
Securities. Each Holder that is a Participating Broker-Dealer will be required
to acknowledge that it will deliver a prospectus as required by law in
connection with any resale of such Exchange Securities. Upon consummation of the
Exchange Offer in accordance with this Agreement, the Issuer and the Guarantors
shall have no further obligation to register Transfer Restricted Securities
pursuant to Section 3 of this Agreement.
(b) The Issuer and the Guarantors shall include within the Prospectus
contained in the Exchange Registration Statement a section entitled "Plan of
Distribution, "reasonably acceptable to the Purchasers, which shall contain a
summary statement of the positions taken or policies made by the Staff of the
SEC with respect to the potential "underwriter" status of any broker-dealer that
is the beneficial owner (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act) of
Exchange Securities received by such broker-dealer in the Exchange Offer (a
"Participating Broker-Dealer"). Such "Plan of Distribution" section shall also
allow the use of the Prospectus by all persons subject to the prospectus
delivery requirements of the Securities Act, including all Participating Broker-
Dealers, and include a statement describing the means by which Participating
Broker-Dealers may resell the Exchange Securities.
The Issuer and the Guarantors shall use their reasonable best efforts
to keep the Exchange Registration Statement effective and to amend and
supplement the Prospectus contained therein, in order to pen-nit such Prospectus
to be lawfully delivered by all persons subject to the prospectus delivery
requirements of the Securities Act for such period of time as such persons must
comply with such requirements in order to resell the Exchange Securities;
provided that such period shall not exceed 180 days after consummation of the
--------
Exchange Offer (or such longer period if extended pursuant to the last paragraph
of Section 5) (the "Applicable Period").
In connection with the Exchange Offer, the Issuer shall:
(a) mail as promptly as practicable to each Holder a copy of the
prospectus forming part of the Exchange Offer Registration Statement, together
with an appropriate letter of transmittal and related documents;
(b) utilize the services of a Depositary for the Exchange Offer with
an address in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York; and
(c) permit Holders to withdraw tendered Securities at any time prior
to the close of business, New York time, on the last business day on which the
Exchange Offer shall remain open.
4
As soon as practicable after the close of the Exchange Offer, the
Issuer and the Guarantors shall:
(i) accept for exchange all Securities properly tendered and
not validly withdrawn pursuant to the Exchange Offer;
(ii) deliver to the Trustee for cancellation all Securities so
accepted for exchange; and
(iii) cause the Trustee to authenticate and deliver promptly to
each Holder of Securities, Exchange Securities equal in principal amount to the
Securities of such Holder so accepted for exchange.
(c) If (1) prior to the consummation of the Exchange Offer, applicable
interpretations of the Staff of the SEC do not permit the Issuer and the
Guarantors to effect the Exchange Offer as contemplated herein, or (2) the
Exchange Offer is commenced and not consummated within 190 days of the Closing
Date for any reason, then the Issuer shall promptly deliver to the Holders and
the Trustee written notice thereof (the "Shelf Notice") and the Issuer and the
Guarantors shall file a Registration Statement pursuant to Section 3. Following
the delivery of a Shelf Notice to the Holders of Transfer Restricted Securities,
the Issuer and the Guarantors shall not have any further obligation to conduct
the Exchange Offer pursuant to this Section 2, provided that the Issuers and the
--------
Guarantors shall have the right, nonetheless, to proceed to consummate the
Exchange Offer notwithstanding their obligations pursuant to this Section 2(c)
(and, upon such consummation, their obligation to consummate a Shelf
Registration shall terminate).
3. Shelf Registration
------------------
If a Shelf Notice is delivered as contemplated by Section 2(c), then:
(a) Shelf Registration. The Issuer and the Guarantors shall use
------------------
their reasonable best efforts to prepare and file with the SEC, as promptly as
practicable following the delivery of the Shelf Notice, a Registration Statement
for an offering to be made on a continuous basis pursuant to Rule 415 covering
all of the Transfer Restricted Securities (the "Shelf Registration"). The Shelf
Registration shall be on Form S-1 or another appropriate form permitting
registration of such Transfer Restricted Securities for resale by the Holders in
the manner or manners reasonably designated by them (including, without
limitation, one or more underwritten offerings). The Issuer and the Guarantors
shall not permit any securities other than the Transfer Restricted Securities to
be included in the Shelf Registration. The Issuer and the Guarantors shall use
their reasonable best efforts, as described in Section 5(b), to cause the Shelf
Registration to be declared effective pursuant to the Securities Act as promptly
as practicable following the filing thereof and to keep the Shelf Registration
continuously effective under the Securities Act until the date which is 24
months from the Closing Date, or such shorter period ending when either (1) all
Transfer Restricted Securities covered by the Shelf Registration have been sold
in the manner set forth and as contemplated in the Shelf Registration or (2)
there ceases to be outstanding any Transfer Restricted Securities (the
"Effectiveness Period").
(b) Supplements and Amendments. The Issuer and the Guarantors shall
--------------------------
use their reasonable best efforts to keep the Shelf Registration Statement
continuously effective by supplementing and amending the Shelf Registration if
required by the rules, regulations or instructions applicable to the
5
registration form used for such Shelf Registration, if required by the
Securities Act, or if reasonably requested by the holders of a majority in
aggregate principal amount of the Transfer Restricted Securities covered by such
Registration Statement or by any underwriter of such Transfer Restricted
Securities.
4. Liquidated Damages
------------------
(a) The Issuer, the Guarantors and the Purchasers agree that the
Holders of Transfer Restricted Securities will suffer damages if the Issuer or
the Guarantors fail to fulfill their obligations pursuant to Section 2 or
Section 3 hereof and that it would not be possible to ascertain the extent of
such damages. Accordingly, in the event of such failure by Issuer or the
Guarantors to fulfill such obligations, the Issuer and the Guarantors hereby
agree to pay liquidated damages ("Liquidated Damages") to each Holder of
Transfer Restricted Securities under the circumstances and to the extent set
forth below:
(i) if the Exchange Registration Statement, or in the event a
Shelf Notice is delivered as contemplated by Section 2(c), the Shelf
Registration Statement, has not been filed with the SEC on or prior to the
Filing Date; or
(ii) if the Exchange Registration Statement, or in the event a
Shelf Notice is, delivered as contemplated by Section 2(c), the Shelf
Registration Statement, is not declared effective by the SEC on or prior to the
Effectiveness Target Date; or
(iii) if an Exchange Registration Statement is declared effective
by the SEC, on or prior to 190 days after the Closing Date, but the Issuer and
the Guarantors have not exchanged Exchange Securities for all Securities validly
tendered in accordance with the terms of the Exchange Offer; or
(iv) the Shelf Registration has been declared effective by the
SEC and such Shelf Registration ceases to be effective or usable at any time
during the Effectiveness Period, without being succeeded on the same day
immediately by a post-effective amendment to such Registration Statement that
cures such failure and that is itself immediately declared effective on the same
day; (any of the foregoing, a "Registration Default") then, with respect to the
first 90-day period following such Event Date (as defined below), the Issuer and
the Guarantors shall pay to each Holder of Transfer Restricted Securities
Liquidated Damages in an amount equal to $.05 per week per $1,000 principal
amount of Transfer Restricted Securities held by such Holder for each week or
portion thereof that the Registration Default continues. The amount of such
Liquidated Damages will increase by an additional $.05 per week per $ 1,000
principal amount of Transfer Restricted Securities with respect to each
subsequent 90-day period until all Registration Defaults have been cured;
provided, however, that Liquidated Damages shall not at any time exceed $.30 per
-------- -------
week per $ 1,000 principal amount of Transfer Restricted Securities. Following
the cure of all Registration Defaults relating to any Transfer Restricted
Securities, the accrual of Liquidated Damages with respect to such Transfer
Restricted Securities will cease. A Registration Default under clause (i) above
shall be cured on the date that either the Exchange Registration Statement, or
in the event a Shelf Notice is delivered as contemplated by Section 2(c), the
Shelf Registration Statement, is filed with the SEC; a Registration Default
under clause (ii) above shall be cured on the date that either the Exchange
Registration Statement, or in the event a Shelf Notice is delivered as
contemplated by Section 2(c), the Shelf Registration Statement, is declared
effective by the SEC; a Registration Default under clause (iii) above shall be
cured on the earlier of the date (A) the Exchange Offer is consummated or (B)
the Issuer delivers a Shelf Notice to the Holders of Restricted Securities; and
a Registration Default under clause (iv) above shall be cured on the earlier of
(A) the date the Shelf Registration is declared effective or (B) the
Effectiveness Period expires.
6
(b) The Issuer shall notify the Trustee within one business day after
each and every date on which a Registration Default occurs (an "Event Date").
Liquidated Damages shall be paid by the Issuer and the Guarantors to the Holders
by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the accounts specified by
them or by mailing checks to their registered addresses if no such accounts have
been specified on or before the semi-annual interest payment date provided in
the Indenture (whether or not any interest is then payable on the Securities).
Each obligation to pay Liquidated Damages shall be deemed to commence accruing
on the applicable Event Date and to cease accruing when all Registration
Defaults have been cured. In no event shall the Issuer pay Liquidated Damages
in excess of the applicable maximum weekly amount set forth above, regardless of
whether one or multiple Registration Defaults exist.
(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 4,
neither the issuance by the Issuer of a notice (i) of the type set forth in
Section 5(c)(vii) declaring the Shelf Registration to be unusable during the
pendency of the Material Activity (as defined in Section 5(c)(viii)) nor (ii) of
the type set forth in Section 5(c)(ii), 5(c)(iii), 5(c)(iv), 5(c)(v) and
5(c)(vi), shall be deemed to be a Registration Default and no Liquidated Damages
shall be payable or accrue with respect thereto; provided, that in the event the
aggregate number of days in any consecutive twelve-month period for which all
notices referenced above are issued and effective exceeds 30 days, then
Liquidated Damages shall be payable in accordance with Sections 4(a) and 4(b)
above for the number of such days in excess of 30 days in the aggregate.
5. Registration Procedures
-----------------------
In connection with the registration of any Exchange Securities or
Transfer Restricted Securities pursuant to Sections 2 or 3 hereof, the Issuer
and the Guarantors shall effect such registration to permit the sale of such
Exchange Securities or Transfer Restricted Securities (as applicable) in
accordance with the intended method or methods of disposition thereof, and
pursuant thereto the Issuer and the Guarantors shall:
(a) Prepare and file with the SEC, a Registration Statement or
Registration Statements as prescribed by Section 2 or 3, and to use their
reasonable best efforts to cause such Registration Statement to become effective
and remain effective as provided herein; provided that, if (1) such filing is
--------
pursuant to Section 3, or (2) a Prospectus contained in an Exchange Registration
Statement filed pursuant to Section 2 is required to be delivered under the
Securities Act by any Participating Broker-Dealer who seeks to sell Exchange
Securities during the Applicable Period, before filing any Registration
Statement or Prospectus or any amendments or supplements thereto, the Issuer
shall, if requested, furnish to and afford the Holders of the Transfer
Restricted Securities and each such Participating Broker-Dealer, as the case may
be, covered by such Registration Statement, their counsel and the managing
underwriters, if any, a reasonable opportunity to review copies of all such
documents (including copies of any documents to be incorporated by reference
therein and all exhibits thereto) proposed to be filed (at least 3 business days
prior to such filing, or such later date as is reasonable under the
circumstances). The Issuer and the Guarantors shall not file any Registration
Statement or Prospectus or any amendments or supplements thereto in respect of
which the Holders, pursuant to this Agreement, must be afforded an opportunity
to review prior to the filing of such document, if the Holders of a majority in
aggregate principal amount of the Transfer Restricted Securities covered by such
Registration Statement, or such Participating Broker-Dealer, as the case may be,
their counsel, or the managing underwriters, if any, shall reasonably object.
7
(b) Prepare and file with the SEC such amendments and post-effective
amendments to each Shelf Registration or Exchange Registration Statement, as the
case may be, as may be necessary to keep such Registration Statement
continuously effective for the Effectiveness Period or the Applicable Period, as
the case may be, or such shorter period as will terminate when all Transfer
Restricted Securities covered by such Registration Statement have been sold;
cause the related Prospectus to be supplemented by any required Prospectus
supplement, and as so supplemented to be filed pursuant to Rule 424 (or any
similar provisions then in force) under the Securities Act; and comply with the
provisions of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations
of the SEC promulgated thereunder applicable to it with respect to the
disposition of all securities covered by such Registration Statement as so
amended or in such Prospectus as so supplemented and with respect to the
subsequent resale of any securities being sold by a Participating Broker-Dealer
covered by any such Prospectus; the Issuer and the Guarantors shall be deemed
not to have used their reasonable best efforts to keep a Registration Statement
effective during the Applicable Period if they voluntarily take any action that
would result in selling Holders of the Transfer Restricted Securities covered
thereby or Participating Broker-Dealers seeking to sell Exchange Securities not
being able to sell such Transfer Restricted Securities or such Exchange
Securities during that period, unless (i) such action is required by applicable
law, or (ii) such action is taken by them in good faith and for valid business
reasons (not including avoidance of their obligations hereunder), including the
acquisition or divestiture of assets.
(c) If (1) a Shelf Registration is filed pursuant to Section 3, or
(2) a Prospectus contained in an Exchange Registration Statement filed pursuant
to Section 2 is required to be delivered under the Securities Act by any
Participating Broker-Dealer who seeks to sell Exchange Securities during the
Applicable Period, notify the selling Holders of Transfer Restricted Securities,
or each known Participating Broker-Dealer, as the case may be, their counsel and
the managing underwriters, if any, promptly and confirm such notice in writing,
(i) when a Prospectus or any Prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment
has been filed, and, with respect to a Registration Statement or any post-
effective amendment, when the same has become effective (including in such
notice a written statement that any Holder may, upon request, obtain, without
charge, one conformed copy of such Registration Statement or post-effective
amendment including financial statements and schedules, documents incorporated
or deemed to be incorporated by reference and exhibits), (ii) of the issuance by
the SEC of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of a Registration
Statement or of any order preventing or suspending the use of any preliminary
prospectus or the initiation of any proceedings for that purpose, (iii) if at
any time when a prospectus is required by the Securities Act to be delivered in
connection with sales of the Transfer Restricted Securities the representations
and warranties of the Issuer or any Guarantor contained in any agreement
(including any underwriting agreement) contemplated by Section 5(l) below cease
to be true and correct, (iv) of the receipt by the Issuer or any Guarantor of
any notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification or
exemption from qualification of a Registration Statement or any of the Transfer
Restricted Securities or the Exchange Securities to be sold by any Participating
Broker-Dealer for offer or sale in any jurisdiction, or the initiation of any
proceeding for such purpose, (v) of the happening of any event or any
information becoming known that makes any statement made in such Registration
Statement or related Prospectus or any document incorporated or deemed to be
incorporated therein by reference untrue in any material respect or that
requires the making of any changes in such Registration Statement, Prospectus or
documents so that, in the case of the Registration Statement, it will not
contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material
fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein
not misleading, and that in the case of the Prospectus, it will not contain any
untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required
to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of
the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, (vi) of the
Issuer's and the Guarantors' reasonable determination that a post-effective
amendment to a Registration
8
Statement would be appropriate and (vii) if (A) the Issuer is engaged in or
proposes to engage in discussions or negotiations with respect to, or has
proposed or taken a substantial step to commence, or there is otherwise pending,
any material merger, acquisition, tender offer, financing or other transaction
(any such negotiation, step, event or state of facts being herein called a
"Material Activity"), (B) such Material Activity would, in the reasonable
opinion of counsel of the Issuer, require disclosure in a prospectus to be
delivered in connection with the sale of the Transfer Restricted Securities to
be sold in compliance with law, and (C) such disclosure would, in the reasonable
judgment of the Issuer, be adverse to its interests; provided, that the Issuer
shall have no obligation to include in any notice contemplated in (vii) above
any reference to or description of the facts upon which the Issuer is delivering
such notice.
(d) If (1) a Shelf Registration is filed pursuant to Section 3, or
(2) a Prospectus contained in an Exchange Registration Statement filed pursuant
to Section 2 is required to be delivered under the Securities Act by any
Participating Broker-Dealer who seeks to sell Exchange Securities during the
Applicable Period, use its best efforts to prevent the issuance of any order
suspending the effectiveness of a Registration Statement or of any order
preventing or suspending the use of a Prospectus or suspending the qualification
(or exemption from qualification) of any of the Transfer Restricted Securities
or the Exchange Securities (as applicable) to be sold by any Participating
Broker-Dealer, for sale in any jurisdiction, and, if any such order is issued,
to use their reasonable best efforts to obtain the withdrawal of any such order
at the earliest possible moment.
(e) If a Shelf Registration is filed pursuant to Section 3 and if
requested by the managing underwriters, if any, or the Holders of a majority in
aggregate principal amount of the Transfer Restricted Securities being sold in
connection with an underwritten offering, (i) promptly incorporate in a
prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment such information as the
managing underwriters, if any, or such Holders or counsel reasonably request to
be included therein, (ii) make all required filings of such prospectus
supplement or such post-effective amendment as soon as practicable after the
Issuer has received notification of the matters to be incorporated in such
prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment, and (iii) supplement or make
amendments to such Registration Statement with such information as the managing
underwriter, if any, or such Holders or counsel reasonably request to be
included therein.
(f) If (1) a Shelf Registration is filed pursuant to Section 3, or
(2) a Prospectus contained in an Exchange Registration Statement filed pursuant
to Section 2 is required to be delivered under the Securities Act by any
Participating Broker-Dealer who seeks to sell Exchange Securities during the
Applicable Period, furnish to each selling Holder of Transfer Restricted
Securities and to each such Participating Broker-Dealer who so requests and to
counsel and each managing underwriter, if any, without charge, one conformed
copy of the Registration Statement or Registration Statements and each post-
effective amendment thereto, including financial statements and schedules, and,
if requested, all documents incorporated or deemed to be incorporated therein by
reference and all exhibits.
(g) If (1) a Shelf Registration is filed pursuant to Section 3, or
(2) a Prospectus contained in an Exchange Registration Statement filed pursuant
to Section 2 is required to be delivered under the Securities Act by any
Participating Broker-Dealer who seeks to sell Exchange Securities during the
Applicable Period, deliver to each selling Holder of Transfer Restricted
Securities, or each such Participating Broker-Dealer, as the case may be, their
counsel, and the underwriters, if any, without charge, as many copies of the
Prospectus or Prospectuses (including each form of preliminary prospectus) and
each amendment or supplement thereto and any documents incorporated by reference
therein as such Persons may reasonably request; and, subject to the last
paragraph of this Section 5, the Issuer and the Guarantors hereby consent to the
use of such Prospectus and each amendment or
9
supplement thereto by each of the selling Holders of Transfer Restricted
Securities or each such Participating Broker-Dealer, as the case may be, and the
underwriters or agents, if any, and dealers (if any), in connection with the
offering and sale of the Transfer Restricted Securities covered by or the sale
by Participating Broker-Dealers of the Exchange Securities pursuant to such
Prospectus and any amendment or supplement thereto.
(h) Prior to any public offering of Transfer Restricted Securities or
any delivery of a Prospectus contained in the Exchange Registration Statement by
any Participating Broker-Dealer who seeks to sell Exchange Securities during the
Applicable Period, to use its reasonable best efforts to register or qualify,
and to cooperate with the selling Holders of Transfer Restricted Securities or
each such Participating Broker-Dealer, as the case may be, the underwriters, if
any, and their respective counsel in connection with the registration or
qualification (or exemption from such registration or qualification) of such
Transfer Restricted Securities for offer and sale under the securities or Blue
Sky laws of such jurisdictions as any selling Holder, Participating Broker-
Dealer, or the managing underwriters reasonably request in writing, provided
--------
that where Exchange Securities held by Participating Broker-Dealers or Transfer
Restricted Securities are offered other than through an underwritten offering,
the Issuer and the Guarantors agree to cause their counsel to perform Blue Sky
investigations and file registrations and qualifications required to be filed
pursuant to this Section 5(h); keep each such registration or qualification (or
exemption therefrom) effective during the period such Registration Statement is
required to be kept effective and do any and all other acts or things reasonably
necessary or advisable to enable the disposition in such jurisdictions of the
Exchange Securities held by Participating Broker-Dealers or the Transfer
Restricted Securities covered by the applicable Registration Statement; provided

supplements thereto; provided, that in the case of an event of the kind
described in Section 5(c)(vii), the Issuer may only cause such discontinuing of
dispositions for any number of periods not to exceed 3 0 days in the aggregate
in any consecutive 12-month period.

and other reasonable out-of-pocket expenses of the Holders of Transfer
Restricted Securities reasonably incurred in connection with the registration of
the Transfer Restricted Securities.
7. Indemnification
---------------
The Issuer and the Guarantors agree to indemnify and hold harmless (i)
each of the Purchasers, each Holder of Transfer Restricted Securities, each
Holder of Exchange Securities, each Participating Broker-Dealer, (ii) each
person, if any, who controls (within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act
or Section 20 of the 0000 Xxx) any such Person (any of the persons referred to
in this clause (ii) being hereinafter referred to as a "controlling person"),
and (iii) the respective officers, directors ' partners, employees,
representatives and agents of any of such Person or any controlling person (any
person referred to in clause (i), (ii) or (iii) may hereinafter be referred to
as an "Indemnified Person") to the fullest extent lawful, from and against any
and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, judgments, actions and expenses
(including without limitation, and as incurred, reimbursement of all reasonable
costs of investigating, preparing, pursuing or defending any claim or action, or
any investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or body, commenced or
threatened, including the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel to any
Indemnified Person) directly or indirectly caused by, related to, based upon,
arising out of or in connection with any untrue statement or alleged untrue
statement of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement or
Prospectus (as amended or supplemented if the Issuer shall have furnished any
amendments or supplements thereto) or any preliminary prospectus, or caused by,
arising out of or based upon any omission or alleged omission to state therein a
material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements
therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not
misleading, except insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities are
caused by (i) any untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or
omission made in reliance upon and in conformity with information relating to
any Indemnified Person furnished to the Issuer or any underwriter in writing by
such Indemnified Person expressly for use therein, or (ii) any untrue statement
contained in or omission from a preliminary prospectus if a copy of the
Prospectus (as then amended or supplemented, if the Issuer shall have furnished
to or on behalf of the Holder participating in the distribution relating to the
relevant Registration Statement any amendments or supplements thereto) was not
sent or given by or on behalf of such Holder to the person asserting any such
losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses who purchased Securities, if
such is required by law at or prior to the written confirmation of the sale of
such Securities to such person and the untrue statement contained in or omission
from such preliminary prospectus was corrected in the Prospectus (or the
Prospectus as amended or supplemented). The Issuer and the Guarantors shall
notify the Holders promptly of the institution, threat or assertion of any
claim, proceeding (including any governmental investigation) or litigation of
which it or they shall have become aware in connection with the matters
addressed by this Agreement which involves the Issuer, any Guarantor or an
Indemnified Person.
In connection with any Registration Statement in which an Indemnified
Person is participating, such Indemnified Person agrees, severally and not
jointly, to indemnify and hold harmless the Issuer, each Guarantor and their
directors and officers and each person who controls the Issuer and
14
the Guarantors within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section
20 of the Exchange Act to the same extent as the foregoing indemnity from the
Issuer and the Guarantors to each Indemnified Person, but only with reference to
information relating to such Indemnified Person furnished to the Issuer in
writing by such Indemnified Person expressly for use in any Registration
Statement or Prospectus, any amendment or supplement thereto, or any preliminary
prospectus. The liability of any Indemnified Person pursuant to this paragraph
shall in no event exceed the net proceeds received by such Indemnified Person
from sales of Transfer Restricted Securities giving rise to such obligations.
If any suit, action, proceeding (including any governmental or
regulatory investigation), claim or demand shall be brought or asserted against
any person in respect of which indemnity may be sought pursuant to either of the
two preceding paragraphs, such person (the "indemnified party") shall promptly
notify the person against whom such indemnity may be sought (the "indemnifying
person") in writing, and the indemnifying person, upon request of the
indemnified party, shall retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to the
indemnified party to represent the indemnified party and any others the
indemnifying person may reasonably designate in such proceeding and shall pay
the reasonable fees and expenses actually incurred by such counsel related to
such proceeding. In any such proceeding, any indemnified party shall have the
right to retain its own counsel, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall
be at the expense of such indemnified party, unless (i) the indemnifying person
and the indemnified party shall have mutually agreed in writing to the contrary,
(ii) the indemnifying person failed promptly to assume the defense and employ
counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party or (iii) the named
parties to any such action (including any impleaded parties) include both such
indemnified party and the indemnifying person, or any affiliate of the
indemnifying person and such indemnified party shall have been reasonably
advised by counsel that either (x) there may be one or more legal defenses
available to it which are different from or additional to those available to the
indemnifying person or such affiliate of the indemnifying person or (y) a
conflict may exist between such indemnified party and the indemnifying person or
such affiliate of the indemnifying person (in which case the indemnifying person
shall not have the right to assume the defense of such action on behalf of such
indemnified party), it being understood, however, that the indemnifying person
shall not, in connection with any one such action or separate but substantially
similar or related actions in the same jurisdiction arising out of the same
general allegations or circumstances, be liable for the fees and expenses of
more than one separate firm of attorneys (in addition to any local counsel) for
all such indemnified parties, which firm shall be designated in writing by
indemnified parties who sold a majority in interest of Transfer Restricted
Securities sold by all such indemnified parties and any such separate firm for
the Issuer and the Guarantors, their directors, their officers and such control
persons of the Issuer and the Guarantors shall be designated in writing by the
Issuer. The indemnifying person shall not be liable for any settlement of any
proceeding effected without its written consent, but if settled with such
consent or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff, the indemnifying
person agrees to indemnify any indemnified party from and against any loss or
liability by reason of such settlement or judgment. No indemnifying person
shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified party, effect any
settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding 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 claims
that are the subject matter of such proceeding.
If the indemnification provided for in the first and second paragraphs
of this Section 7 is unavailable to an indemnified party in respect of any
losses, claims, damages, liabilities, or expenses referred to therein (other
than by reason of the exceptions provided therein), then each indemnifying
person under such paragraphs, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party
thereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified
party as a result of such losses, claims,
15
damages, liabilities, or expenses (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to
reflect the relative fault of the indemnified party on the one hand and the
indemnifying person(s) on the other in connection with the statements or
omissions that resulted in such losses, claims, damages, liabilities, or
expenses 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 fault referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative benefits of
the indemnifying person(s) and the indemnified party, as well as any other
relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the Issuer and the
Guarantors on the one hand and any Indemnified Persons on the other 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 Issuer and the Guarantors
or by such Indemnified Persons and the parties relative intent, knowledge,
access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or
omission.
The parties agree that it would not be just and equitable if
contribution pursuant to this Section 7 were determined by pro rata allocation
--------
(even if such indemnified parties were treated as one entity for such purpose)
or by any other method of allocation that does not take account of the equitable
considerations referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph. The amount
paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims,
damages and liabilities referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph shall
be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth above, any reasonable
legal or other expenses actually incurred by such indemnified party in
connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim.
Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 7, in no event shall an
Indemnified Person be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount
by which proceeds received by such Indemnified Person from sales of Transfer
Restricted Securities exceeds the amount of any damages that such Indemnified
Person 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
Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not
guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.
The indemnity and contribution agreements contained in this Section 7
will be in addition to any liability which the indemnifying persons may
otherwise have to the indemnified parties referred to above. The Indemnified
Persons' obligations to contribute pursuant to Section 7 are several in
proportion to the respective principal amount of Securities sold by each of the
Indemnified Persons hereunder and not joint.
8. Rules 144 and 144A
------------------
The Issuer and the Guarantors covenant that they will file the reports
required to be filed by them pursuant to the Securities Act and the Exchange Act
and the rules and regulations adopted by the SEC thereunder in a timely manner
and, if at any time the Issuer and the Guarantors are not required to file such
reports, they will, upon the request of any Holder of Transfer Restricted
Securities, make available information required by Rules 144 and 144A under the
Securities Act in order to permit sales pursuant to Rule 144 and Rule 144A. The
Issuer and the Guarantors further covenant that they will take such further
action as any Holder of Transfer Restricted Securities may reasonably request,
all to the extent required from time to time to enable such Holder to sell
Transfer Restricted Securities without registration under the Securities Act
within the limitation of the exemptions provided by (a) Rule 144 and Rule 144A
under the Act, as such Rules may be amended from time to time, or (b) any
similar rule or regulation hereafter adopted by the SEC.
16
9. Underwritten Registrations
--------------------------
(a) If any of the Transfer Restricted Securities covered by any Shelf
Registration are to be sold in an underwritten offering, the investment banker
or investment bankers and manager or managers that will manage the offering will
be selected by the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of such
Transfer Restricted Securities included in such offering and reasonably
acceptable to the Issuer.
No Holder of Transfer Restricted Securities may participate in any
underwritten registration hereunder, unless such Holder (a) agrees to sell such
Holder's Transfer Restricted Securities on the basis provided in any
underwriting arrangements approved by the Persons entitled hereunder to approve
such arrangements and (b) completes and executes all questionnaires, powers of
attorney, indemnities, underwriting agreements and other documents required
under the terms of such underwriting arrangements.
(b) Each Holder of Transfer Restricted Securities agrees, if requested
(pursuant to a timely written notice) by the managing underwriters in an
underwritten offering or placement agent in a private offering of the Company's
or the Guarantors' debt securities, not to effect any private sale or
distribution (including a sale pursuant to Rule 144(k) and Rule 144A, but
excluding nonpublic sales to any of its affiliates, officers, directors,
employees and controlling persons) of any of the Securities except pursuant to
an Exchange Offer), during the period beginning 10 days prior to, and ending 90
days after, the closing date of the underwritten offering.
The foregoing provisions shall not apply to any holder of Transfer
Restricted Securities if such holder is prevented by applicable statute or
regulation from entering into any such agreement.
The Issuer and the Guarantors agree without the written consent of the
managing underwriters in an underwritten offering of Transfer Restricted
Securities covered by a Registration Statement filed pursuant to Section 3
hereof, not to effect any public or private sale or distribution of its
respective debt securities, including a sale pursuant to Regulation D or Rule
144A under the Securities Act, during the period beginning I 0 days prior to,
and ending 90 days after, the closing date of each underwritten offering made
pursuant to such Registration Statement provided, however, that such period
-------- -------
shall be extended by the number of days from and including the date of the
giving of any notice pursuant to Section 5(c) (v) or (c) (vi) hereof to and
including the date when each seller of Transfer Restricted Securities covered by
such Registration Statement shall have received the copies of the supplemented
or amended Prospectus contemplated by Section 50) hereof).
10. Miscellaneous
-------------
(a) Remedies. In the event of a breach by the Issuer of any of its
--------
obligations under this Agreement, each Holder of Transfer Restricted Securities,
in addition to being entitled to exercise all rights provided herein, in the
Indenture or, in the case of the Purchasers, in the Purchase Agreement, or
granted by law, including recovery of damages, will be entitled to specific
performance of its rights under this Agreement. The Issuer and the Guarantors
agree that monetary damages would not be adequate compensation for any loss
incurred by reason of a breach by them of any of the provisions of this
Agreement and hereby further agree that, in the event of any action for specific
performance in respect of such breach, they shall waive the defense that a
remedy at law would be adequate.
