EXHIBIT 99.2
STOCK PURCHASE AGREEMENT
This Stock Purchase Agreement is made as of this 28th day of
February, 2001, between Motorcar Parts & Accessories, Inc., a New York
corporation (the "Company"), and Xxx Xxxxx ("Purchaser"), a resident of the
State of Florida.
RECITALS
Purchaser, a stockholder of the Company, desires to purchase additional
shares of common stock of the Company;
On November 30, 2000, the Company informed Purchaser that it required
an immediate commitment of $1,500,000 to fund settlement of a pending securities
class action lawsuit against the Company, and Purchaser committed to providing
these funds.
The Company has authorized 20,000,000 shares of its Common Stock par
value $.01 per share;
NOW, THEREFORE, for and in consideration of the premises and the mutual
covenants hereinafter set forth, the parties hereto agree as follows:
1. SUBSCRIPTION AND REPRESENTATIONS BY PURCHASER
1.1 Subject to the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth,
Purchaser hereby subscribes for and agrees to purchase from the Company, and the
Company hereby agrees to sell to Purchaser, shares of Common Stock (the
"Shares") of the Company. The total purchase price for the Shares shall be $1.5
million, payable by certified or bank check made payable to "Motorcar Parts &
Accessories, Inc.," or by wire transfer to an account designated by the Company
in writing. The Company shall deposit and maintain such funds in an interest
bearing account and shall not use any portion of such funds for any reason other
than to effect the settlement of the class action litigation referred to in
Paragraphs 2.1(e) and 2.2(d) of this Agreement. The Company will issue up to
1,500,000 shares of Common Stock to Purchaser, at a per share price of $1.00.
This price is subject to the fairness opinion set forth in Paragraph 2.1(d)
hereof. If such fairness opinion concludes that the price of the Common Stock
should be greater than $1.00 per share, then the purchase price shall be the
amount determined to be "fair," as set forth in the fairness opinion provided
for in Section 2.1(d) of this Agreement, but in no event shall the maximum
aggregate purchase price exceed $1.5 Million. The certificates representing the
Shares, duly executed by the Company, will be delivered in accordance with
Paragraph 4 of this Agreement.
1.2 Purchaser recognizes that (i) the purchase of the Shares involves a
high degree of risk, (ii) an investment in the Company is highly speculative;
(iii) he may not be able to liquidate his investment; (iv) transferability of
the Shares is extremely limited; and (v) in the event of a disposition of the
Shares, Purchaser could sustain the loss of his entire investment.
1
1.3 Purchaser represents that he is an "accredited investor" as such
term is defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act
of 1933, as amended (the "Act"), and that he is able to bear the economic risk
of this investment.
1.4 Purchaser hereby acknowledges that, as a director of the Company,
he has access to all material information regarding the Company.
1.5 Purchaser hereby acknowledges that this offering of the Shares has
not been reviewed by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission
("SEC"). Purchaser represents that the Shares are being purchased for his own
account, and not with a view to or for resale in connection with any
distribution or public offering in a manner which would violate the Act.
Purchaser agrees that he will not sell or otherwise transfer the Shares unless
they are registered under the Act or unless an exemption from such registration
is available.
1.6 The certificates evidencing the Shares shall bear the following
legend:
"THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN
REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, AND MAY NOT BE
SOLD, TRANSFERRED OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF IN THE ABSENCE OF SUCH
REGISTRATION OR AN EXEMPTION THEREFROM UNDER SAID ACT THE RULES AND
REGULATIONS THEREUNDER."
