with all other such required information, and, except to the extent the
Representatives shall agree in writing to a modification, shall be in all
substantive respects in the form furnished to you prior to the Execution
Time or, to the extent not completed at the Execution Time, shall contain
only such specific additional information and other changes (beyond that
contained in the Basic Prospectus and any Preliminary Final Prospectus) as
the Company has advised you, prior to the Execution Time, will be included
or made therein. The Registration Statement, at the Execution Time, meets
the requirements set forth in Rule 415(a)(1)(x).
(b) On the Effective Date, the Registration Statement did or will,
and when the Final Prospectus is first filed (if required) in accordance
with Rule 424(b) and on the Closing Date (as defined herein) and on any

applicable requirements of the Act and the Exchange Act and the respective
rules thereunder; on the Effective Date and at the Execution Time, the
Registration Statement did not or will not contain any untrue statement of
a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated
therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein not
misleading; and, on the Effective Date, the Final Prospectus, if not filed

necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the
circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; provided,
--------
however, that the Company makes no representations or warranties as to the
-------
information contained in or omitted from the Registration Statement or the
Final Prospectus (or any supplement thereto) in reliance upon and in
conformity with information furnished in writing to the Company by or on
behalf of any Underwriter through the Representatives specifically for
inclusion in the Registration Statement or the Final Prospectus (or any
supplement thereto).
Any certificate signed by any officer of the Company and delivered to the
Representatives or counsel for the Underwriters in connection with the offering
of the

Securities shall be deemed a representation and warranty by the Company, as to
matters covered thereby, to each Underwriter.

------------------
reliance upon the representations and warranties herein set forth, the Company
agrees to sell to each Underwriter, and each Underwriter agrees, severally and
not jointly, to purchase from the Company, at the Proceeds to Company per share

(b) Subject to the terms and conditions and in reliance upon the
representations and warranties herein set forth, the Company hereby grants an
option to the several Underwriters to purchase, severally and not jointly, up to
the number of Option Securities set forth in Schedule I hereto at the same
purchase price per share as the Underwriters shall pay for the Underwritten
Securities. Said option may be exercised only to cover over-allotments in the
sale of the Underwritten Securities by the Underwriters. Said option may be
exercised in whole or in part at any time (but not more than once) on or before
the 30th day after the date of the Final Prospectus upon written or telegraphic
notice by the Representatives to the Company setting forth the number of shares
of the Option Securities as to which the several Underwriters are exercising the
option and the settlement date. The number of shares of the Option Securities
to be purchased by each Underwriter shall be the same percentage of the total
number of shares of the Option Securities to be purchased by the several
Underwriters as such Underwriter is purchasing of the Underwritten Securities,
subject to such adjustments as you in your absolute discretion shall make to
eliminate any fractional shares.
3. Delivery and Payment. Delivery of and payment for the

price thereof to or upon the order of the Company by wire transfer payable in
same-day funds to an account specified by the Company. If settlement for the
Option Securities occurs after the Closing Date, the Company will deliver to the
Representatives on the settlement date for the Option Securities, and the
obligation of the Underwriters to

supplemental opinions, certificates and letters confirming as of such date the

-------------------------
Underwriters propose to offer the Securities for sale to the public as set forth
in the Final Prospectus.
5. Agreements. The Company agrees with the several Underwriters

that:
(a) The Company will use its best efforts to cause the Registration
Statement, if not effective at the Execution Time, and any amendment
thereof, to become effective. Prior to the termination of the offering of
the Securities, the Company will not file any amendment of the Registration
Statement or supplement (including the Final Prospectus or any Preliminary
Final Prospectus) to the Basic Prospectus or any Rule 462(b) Registration
Statement unless the Company has furnished you a copy for your review prior
to filing and will not file any such proposed amendment or supplement to
which you reasonably object. Subject to the foregoing sentence, if the
Registration Statement has become or becomes effective pursuant to Rule
430A, or filing of the Final Prospectus is otherwise required under Rule
424(b), the Company will cause the Final Prospectus, properly completed,
and any supplement thereto to be filed with the Commission pursuant to the
applicable paragraph of Rule 424(b) within the time period prescribed and
will provide evidence satisfactory to the Representatives of such timely
filing. The Company will promptly advise the Repre sentatives (1) when
the Registration Statement, if not effective at the Execution Time, shall
have become effective, (2) when the Final Prospectus, and any supplement
thereto, shall have been filed (if required) with the Commission pursuant
to Rule 424(b) or when any Rule 462(b) Registration Statement shall have
been filed with the Commission, (3) when, prior to termination of the
offering of the Securities, any amendment to the Registration Statement
shall have been filed or become effective, (4) of any request by the
Commission or its staff for any amendment of the Registration Statement, or
any Rule 462(b) Registration Statement, or for any supple ment to the
Final Prospectus or for any additional information, (5) of the issuance by
the Commission of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the
Registration Statement or the institution or threatening of any proceeding
for that purpose and (6) of the receipt by the Company of any notification
with respect to the suspension of the qualification of the Securities for
sale in any jurisdiction or the institution or threatening of any
proceeding for such purpose. The Company will use its best efforts to
prevent the issuance of any such stop order or the suspension of any such
qualification and, if issued, to obtain as soon as possible the withdrawal
thereof.
(b) If, at any time when a prospectus relating to the Securities is
required to be delivered under the Act, any event occurs as a result of
which the Final Prospectus as then supplemented would include any 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 shall be necessary to amend
the Registration Statement or supplement the Final Prospectus to comply
with the Act or the Exchange Act or the respective rules thereunder, the
Company promptly will (1) notify the Representatives of such event, (2)
prepare and file with the Commission, subject to the second sentence of
paragraph (a) of this Section 5, an amendment or supplement which will
correct such statement or omission or effect
5
such compliance and (3) supply any supplemented Final Prospectus to you in
such quantities as you may reasonably request.
(c) As soon as practicable, the Company will make generally available
to its security holders and to the Representatives an earnings statement or
statements of the Company and its subsidiaries which will satisfy the
provisions of Section 11(a) of the Act and Rule 158 under the Act.
(d) The Company will furnish to the Representatives and counsel for
the Underwriters, without charge, signed copies of the Registration
Statement (including exhibits thereto) and to each other Underwriter a copy
of the Registration Statement (without exhibits thereto) and, so long as
delivery of a prospectus by an Underwriter or dealer may be required by the
Act, as many copies of each Preliminary Final Prospectus and the Final
Prospectus and any supplement thereto as the Representatives may reasonably
request. The Company will pay the expenses of printing or other production
of all documents relating to the offering.
(e) The Company will arrange, if necessary, for the qualification of
the Securities for sale under the laws of such jurisdictions as the
Representatives may designate, will maintain such qualifications in effect
so long as required for the distribution of the Securities and will pay any
fee of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc., in connection
with its review of the offering; provided that in no event shall the
Company be obligated to qualify to do business in any jurisdiction where it
is not now so qualified or to take any action that would subject it to
service of process in suits, other than those arising out of the offering
or sale of the Securities, in any jurisdiction where it is not now so
subject.
(f) The Company will not, without the prior written consent of [name
of the lead Representative], offer, sell, contract to sell, pledge, or
otherwise dispose of, (or enter into any transaction which is designed to,
or might reasonably be expected to, result in the disposition (whether by
actual disposition or effective economic disposition due to cash settlement
or otherwise) by the Company or any affiliate of the Company or any person
in privity with the Company or any affiliate of the Company) directly or
indirectly, including the filing (or participation in the filing) of a
registration statement with the Commission in respect of, or establish or
increase a put equivalent position or liquidate or decrease a call
equivalent position within the meaning of Section 16 of the Exchange Act,
any other shares of [ ] Stock or any securities convertible into, or
exercisable, or exchangeable for, shares of [ ] Stock; or publicly
announce an intention to effect any such transaction, until the Business
Day set forth on Schedule I hereto, provided, however, that the Company may
-------- -------
(i) register the Securities and sell the shares of the Securities offered
in the offering, (ii) register, issue and sell Common Stock pursuant to any
employee or director stock option plan, stock ownership plan or dividend
reinvestment plan of the Company and (iii) the Company may issue Common
Stock issuable upon the conversion of securities or the exercise of
warrants outstanding at the Execution Time.
(g) The Company will not take, directly or indirectly, any action
designed to or which has constituted or which might reasonably be expected
to cause or result, under the Exchange Act or otherwise, in stabilization
or manipulation of the price of any security of the Company to facilitate
the sale or resale of the Securities.

the meaning of the Act and the Exchange Act and the respective applicable
rules and regulations adopted by the Commission thereunder and that they
have performed a review of the most recent unaudited financial statements
included or incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement and
Final Prospectus, if any, in accordance with Statement on Auditing
Standards No. 71, and stating in effect, except as provided in Schedule I
hereto, that:
(i) in their opinion the audited financial statements and
financial statement schedules and any pro forma financial statements
included or incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement
and the Final Prospectus and reported on by them comply as to form in
all material respects with the applicable accounting requirements of
the Act and the Exchange Act and the related rules and regulations
adopted by the Commission;

Statement on Auditing Standards No. 71, of the most recent unaudited
financial statements included or incorporated by reference in the
Registration Statement and the Final Prospectus, as indicated in their
report, if any, incorporated by reference in the Registration
Statement and the Final Prospectus; carrying out certain specified
procedures (but not an examination in accordance with generally
accepted auditing standards) which would not necessarily reveal
matters of significance with respect to the comments set forth in such
letter; a reading of the minutes of the meetings of the stockholders,
directors and certain committees of the Company and the Subsidiaries;
and inquiries of certain officials of the Company who have
responsibility for financial and accounting matters of the Company and
its subsidiaries as to transactions and events subsequent to the date
of the most recent audited financial statements included or
incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement and Final
Prospectus, nothing came to their attention which caused them to
believe that:
(1) any unaudited financial statements included or
incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement and the
Final Prospectus do not comply as to form in all material
respects with applicable accounting requirements of the Act and
with the related rules and regulations adopted by the Commission
with respect to financial statements included or incorporated by
reference in quarterly reports on Form 10-Q under the Exchange
Act; and said unaudited financial statements are not in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles applied
on a basis substantially consistent with that of the audited
financial statements included or incorporated by reference in the
Registration Statement and the Final Prospectus;
(2) with respect to the period subsequent to the date of the
most recent financial statements (other than any capsule
information), audited or unaudited, included or incorporated by
reference in the Registration Statement and the Final Prospectus,
there were any changes, at a specified date not more than five
days prior to the date of the letter, in the long-term debt of
the Company and its subsidiaries or capital stock of the Company
or decreases in the stockholders' equity of the Company as
compared with the amounts shown on the date of the most recent
financial statements (other than any capsule information),
audited or unaudited, included or incorporated by reference in
the Registration Statement and the Final Prospectus, or for the
period from the date of the most recent financial statements
(other than any capsule information), audited or unaudited,
included or incorporated by reference in the Registration
Statement and the Final Prospectus, to such specified date there
were any decreases, as compared with the corresponding period in
the preceding year, in revenues or income before provision for
income taxes or in total or per share amounts of net income of
the
11
Company and its subsidiaries, except in all instances for changes
or decreases set forth in such letter, in which case the letter
shall be accompanied by an explanation by the Company as to the
significance thereof unless said explanation is not deemed
necessary by the Representatives;
(3) the information included or incorporated by reference in
the Registration Statement and Final Prospectus in response to
Regulation S-K, Item 301 (Selected Financial Data), Item 302
(Supplementary Financial Information), Item 402 (Executive
Compensation) and Item 503(d) (Ratio of Earnings to Fixed
Charges) is not in conformity with the applicable disclosure
requirements of Regulation S-K; or
(4) the unaudited amounts of any capsule information
included or incorporated by reference in the Registration
Statement and the Final Prospectus do not agree with the amounts
set forth in the unaudited financial statements for the same
periods or were not determined on a basis substantially
consistent with that of the corresponding amounts in the audited
financial statements included or incorporated by reference in the
Registration Statement and the Final Prospectus; and
(iii) they have performed certain other specified procedures as a
result of which they determined that certain information of an
accounting, financial or statistical nature (which is limited to
accounting, financial or statistical information derived from the
general accounting records of the Company and its subsidiaries) set
forth in the Registration Statement and the Final Prospectus and in
Exhibit 12 to the Registration Statement, the information included or
incorporated by reference in Items 1, 2, 6, and 7 of the Company's
most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, incorporated by reference in
the Registration Statement and the Final Prospectus, the information
included in the "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations" included or incorporated by
reference in each of the Company's Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q,
incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement and the Final
Prospectus, and any information of an accounting or financial nature
appearing in a Current Report on Form 8-K incorporated by reference in
the Registration Statement and the Final Prospectus, agrees with the
accounting records of the Company and its subsidiaries, excluding any
questions of legal interpretation.
References to the Final Prospectus in this paragraph (e) include any
supplement thereto at the date of the letter.
(f) Subsequent to the Execution Time or, if earlier, the dates as of
which information is given in the Registration Statement (exclusive of any
amendment thereof) and the Final Prospectus (exclusive of any supplement
thereto), there shall not have been (i) any change or decrease specified in
the letter or letters referred to in paragraph (e) of this Section 6 (other
than any change or decrease specified in such letter or letters delivered
at the Execution Time) or (ii) any change, or any
12
development involving a prospective change, in or affecting the condition
(financial or otherwise), earnings, business or properties of the Company
and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole, whether or not arising from
transactions in the ordinary course of business, except as set forth in or
contemplated in the Final Prospectus (exclusive of any supplement thereto)
the effect of which, in any case referred to in clause (i) or (ii) above,
is, in the sole judgment of the Representatives, so material and adverse as
to make it impractical or inadvisable to proceed with the offering or
delivery of the Securities as contemplated by the Registration Statement
(exclusive of any amendment thereof) and the Final Prospectus (exclusive of
any supplement thereto).
(g) Prior to the Closing Date, the Company shall have furnished to
the Representatives such further information, certificates and documents as
the Repre sentatives may reasonably request.
(h) Subsequent to the Execution Time, there shall not have been any
decrease in the rating of any of the Company's debt securities by any
"nationally recognized statistical rating organization" (as defined for
purposes of Rule 436(g) under the Act) or any notice given of any intended
or potential decrease in any such rating or of a possible change in any
such rating that does not indicate the direction of the possible change.
(i) The Securities shall have been listed and admitted and authorized
for trading on the Stock Exchange specified in Schedule I hereto, and
satisfactory evidence of such actions shall have been provided to the
Representatives.
(j) At the Execution Time, the Company shall have furnished to the
Representatives a letter substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto from
each person listed in Schedule I hereto.
If any of the conditions specified in this Section 6 shall not have
been fulfilled in all material respects when and as provided in this Agreement,
or if any of the opinions and certificates mentioned above or elsewhere in this
Agreement shall not be in all material respects reasonably satisfactory in form
and substance to the Representatives and counsel for the Underwriters, this
Agreement and all obligations of the Underwriters hereunder may be canceled at,
or at any time prior to, the Closing Date by the Representatives . Notice of
such cancellation shall be given to the Company in writing or by telephone or
facsimile confirmed in writing.
The documents required to be delivered by this Section 6 shall be
delivered at the office of Cravath, Swaine & Xxxxx, counsel for the
Underwriters, at 000 Xxxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxx Xxxx, Xxx Xxxx 00000, on the Closing
Date.
7. Reimbursement of Underwriters' Expenses. If the sale of the
----------------------------------------
Securities provided for herein is not consummated because any condition to the
obligations of the Underwriters set forth in Section 6 hereof is not satisfied,
because of any termination pursuant to Section 10 hereof or because of any
refusal, inability or failure on the part of the Company to perform any
agreement herein or comply with any provision hereof other than by reason of a
default by any of the Underwriters, the Company will reimburse the Underwriters
severally through the Representatives on demand for all reasonable out-of-pocket
expenses (including reasonable fees and disbursements of one Underwriters'
counsel)
13
approved by the Representatives that shall have been incurred by them in
connection with the proposed purchase and sale of the Securities.
8. Indemnification and Contribution. (a) The Company agrees to
---------------------------------
indemnify and hold harmless each Underwriter, the directors, officers, employees
and agents of each Underwriter and each person who controls any Underwriter
within the meaning of either the Act or the Exchange Act against any and all
losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which they or any
of them may become subject under the Act, the Exchange Act or other Federal or
state statutory law or regulation, at common law 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 a
material fact contained in the registration statement for the registration of
the Securities as originally filed or in any amendment thereof, or in the Basic
Prospectus, any Preliminary Final Prospectus or the Final Prospectus, or in any
amendment thereof or supplement thereto, 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 not misleading, and
agrees to reimburse each such indemnified party, as incurred, for any legal or
other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or
defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action; provided, however,
-------- -------
that (i) the Company will not be liable in any such case to the extent that any
such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon any such
untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission
made therein in reliance upon and in conformity with written information
furnished to the Company by or on behalf of any Underwriter through the
Representatives specifically for inclusion therein and (ii) with respect to any
untrue statement or omission of a material fact made in any Preliminary Final
Prospectus, the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 8(a) shall not
inure to the benefit of any Underwriter (or any of the directors, officers,
employees and agents of such Underwriter or any controlling person or such
Underwriter) from whom the person asserting any such loss, claim, damage or
liability purchased the Securities concerned, to the extent that any such loss,
claim, damage or liability of such Underwriter occurs under the circumstances
where (x) the Company had previously furnished copies of the Final Prospectus to
the Representatives, (y) the untrue statement or omission of a material fact
contained in the Preliminary Final Prospectus was corrected in the Final
Prospectus and (z) there was not sent or given to such person, at or prior to
the written confirmation of the sale of such Securities to such person, a copy
of the Final Prospectus. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any
liability which the Company may otherwise have.
(b) Each Underwriter severally and not jointly agrees to indemnify
and hold harmless the Company, each of its directors, each of its officers who
signs the Registration Statement, and each person who controls the Company
within the meaning of either the Act or the Exchange Act, to the same extent as
the foregoing indemnity from the Company to each Underwriter, but only with
reference to written information relating to such Underwriter furnished to the
Company by or on behalf of such Underwriter through the Representatives
specifically for inclusion in the documents referred to in the foregoing
indemnity, and will reimburse the Company and such other persons for any legal
or other expenses reasonably incurred by the Company or such other persons in
connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim as such
expenses are incurred. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any
liability which any Underwriter may otherwise have. The Company acknowledges
that the statements described in Schedule I hereto in any Preliminary Final
Prospectus and the Final Prospectus constitute the only information furnished in
writing by or on behalf of the several Underwriters for inclusion in any
Preliminary Final Prospectus or the Final Prospectus.
14
(c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section
8 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 this
Section 8, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the commencement thereof;
but the failure so to notify the indemnifying party (i) will not relieve it from
liability under paragraph (a) or (b) above unless and to the extent it did not
otherwise learn of such action and such failure results in the forfeiture by the
indemnifying party of substantial rights and defenses and (ii) will not, in any
event, relieve the indemnifying party from any obligations to any indemnified
party other than the indemnification obligation provided in paragraph (a) or (b)
above. The indemnifying party shall be entitled to appoint counsel of the
indemnifying party's choice at the indemnifying party's expense to represent the
indemnified party in any action for which indemnification is sought (in which
case the indemnifying party shall not thereafter be responsible for the fees and
expenses of any separate counsel retained by the indemnified party or parties
except as set forth below); provided, however, that such counsel shall be
-------- --------
satisfactory to the indemnified party. Notwithstanding the indemnifying party's
election to appoint counsel to represent the indemnified party in an action, the
indemnified party shall have the right to employ separate counsel (including
local counsel), and the indemnifying party shall bear the reasonable fees, costs
and expenses of such separate counsel if (i) the use of counsel chosen by the
indemnifying party to represent the indemnified party would present such counsel
with a conflict of interest, (ii) the actual or potential defendants in, or
targets of, any such action include both the indemnified party and the
indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded
that there may be legal defenses available to it and/or other indemnified
parties which are different from or additional to those available to the
indemnifying party, (iii) the indemnifying party shall not have employed counsel
satisfactory to the indemnified party to represent the indemnified party within
a reasonable time after notice of the institution of such action or (iv) the
indemnifying party shall authorize the indemnified party to employ separate
counsel at the expense of the indemnifying party. An indemnifying party will
not, without the prior written consent of the indemnified parties, settle or
compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to any pending
or threatened claim, action, suit or proceeding in respect of which
indemnification or contribution may be sought hereunder (whether or not the
indemnified parties are actual or potential parties to such claim or action)
unless such settlement, compromise or consent includes an unconditional release
of each indemnified party from all liability arising out of such claim, action,
suit or proceeding. An indemnifying party shall not be liable under this
Section 8 to any indemnified party regarding any settlement or compromise or
consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to any pending or threatened
claim, action, suit or proceeding in respect of which indemnification or
contribution may be sought hereunder (whether or not the indemnified parties are
actual or potential parties to such claim or action) unless such settlement,
compromise or consent is consented to by such indemnifying party, which consent
shall not be unreasonably withheld.
(d) In the event that the indemnity provided in paragraph (a) or (b)
of this Section 8 is unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless an
indemnified party for any reason, the Company and the Underwriters severally
agree to contribute to the aggregate losses, claims, damages and liabilities
(including legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with
investigating or defending same) (collectively "Losses") to which the Company
and one or more of the Underwriters may be subject in such proportion as is
appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company on the one
hand and by the Underwriters on the other from the offering of the Securities;
provided, however, that in no case shall any Underwriter (except as may be
-------- -------
provided in any agreement among underwriters relating to the offering of the
Securities) be responsible for any amount in
15
excess of the underwriting discount or commission applicable to the Securities
purchased by such Underwriter hereunder. If the allocation provided by the
immediately preceding sentence is unavailable for any reason, the Company and
the Underwriters severally shall contribute in such proportion as is appropriate
to reflect not only such relative benefits but also the relative fault of the
Company on the one hand and of the Underwriters on the other in connection with
the statements or omissions which resulted in such Losses as well as any other
relevant equitable considerations. Benefits received by the Company shall be
deemed to be equal to the total net proceeds from the offering (before deducting
expenses) received by it, and benefits received by the Underwriters shall be
deemed to be equal to the total underwriting discounts and commissions, in each
case as set forth on the cover page of the Final Prospectus. Relative fault
shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any untrue or
any alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged
omission to state a material fact relates to information provided by the Company
on the one hand or the Underwriters on the other, the intent of the parties and
their relative knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or
prevent such untrue statement or omission. The Company and the Underwriters
agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution were determined by
pro rata allocation or any other method of allocation which does not take
account of the equitable considerations referred to above. Notwithstanding the
provisions of this paragraph (d), 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. For purposes of this Section 8, each person who controls an
Underwriter within the meaning of either the Act or the Exchange Act and each
director, officer, employee and agent of an Underwriter shall have the same
rights to contribution as such Underwriter, and each person who controls the
Company within the meaning of either the Act or the Exchange Act, each officer
of the Company who shall have signed the Registration Statement and each
director of the Company shall have the same rights to contribution as the
Company, subject in each case to the applicable terms and conditions of this
paragraph (d).
9. Default by an Underwriter. If any one or more Underwriters shall
--------------------------
fail to purchase and pay for any of the Securities agreed to be purchased by
such Underwriter or Underwriters hereunder and such failure to purchase shall
constitute a default in the performance of its or their obligations under this
Agreement, the remaining Underwriters shall be obligated severally to take up
and pay for (in the respective proportions which the amount of Securities set
forth opposite their names in Schedule II hereto bears to the aggregate amount
of Securities set forth opposite the names of all the remaining Underwriters)
the Securities which the defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed but
failed to purchase; provided, however, that in the event that the aggregate
-------- -------
amount of Securities which the defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed but
failed to purchase shall exceed 10% of the aggregate amount of Securities set
forth in Schedule II hereto, the remaining Underwriters shall have the right to
purchase all, but shall not be under any obligation to purchase any, of the
Securities, and if such nondefaulting Underwriters do not purchase all the
Securities, this Agreement will terminate without liability to any nondefaulting
Underwriter or the Company. In the event of a default by any Underwriter as set
forth in this Section 9, the Closing Date shall be postponed for such period,
not exceeding five Business Days, as the Representatives shall determine in
order that the required changes in the Registration Statement and the Final
Prospectus or in any other documents or arrangements may be effected. Nothing
contained in this Agreement shall relieve any defaulting Underwriter of its
liability, if any, to the Company and any nondefaulting Underwriter for damages
occasioned by its default hereunder.
16
10. Termination. This Agreement shall be subject to termination in
------------
the absolute discretion of the Representatives, by notice given to the Company
prior to delivery of and payment for the Securities, if at any time prior to
such time (i) trading in the Company's Common Stock shall have been suspended by
the Commission or the New York Stock Exchange or trading in securities
generally on the New York Stock Exchange shall have been suspended or limited or
minimum prices shall have been established on such Exchange, (ii) a banking
moratorium shall have been declared either by Federal or New York State
authorities or (iii) there shall have occurred any outbreak or escalation of
hostilities, declaration by the United States of a national emergency or war, or
other calamity or crisis the effect of which on financial markets is such as to
make it, in the sole judgment of the Representatives, impractical or inadvisable
to proceed with the offering or delivery of the Securities as contemplated by
the Final Prospectus (exclusive of any supplement thereto).
11. Representations and Indemnities to Survive. The respective
-------------------------------------------
agreements, representations, warranties, indemnities and other statements of the
Company or its officers and of the Underwriters set forth in or made pursuant to
this Agreement will remain in full force and effect, regardless of any
investigation made by or on behalf of any Underwriter or the Company or any of
the officers, directors, employees, agents or controlling persons referred to in
Section 8 hereof, and will survive delivery of and payment for the Securities.
The provisions of Sections 7 and 8 hereof shall survive the termination or
cancelation of this Agreement.

--------
effective only on receipt, and, if sent to the Representatives, will be mailed,
delivered or telefaxed as set forth in Schedule I; or, if sent to the Company,

-----------
binding upon the parties hereto and their respective successors and the
officers, directors, employees, agents and controlling persons referred to in
Section 8 hereof, and no other person will have any right or obligation
hereunder.
14. Applicable Law. This Agreement will be governed by and construed
---------------
in accordance with the laws of the State of New York applicable to contracts
made and to be performed within the State of New York.
15. Counterparts. This Agreement may be signed in one or more
------------
counterparts, each of which shall constitute an original and all of which
together shall constitute one and the same agreement.

[Representatives]
As Representative[s] of the several Underwriters,
[c/o ]
[Address]
Ladies and Gentlemen:
This letter is being delivered to you in connection with the proposed
Underwriting Agreement (the "Underwriting Agreement"), between Vintage
Petroleum, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), and [each of] you as
representative[s] of a group of Underwriters named therein, relating to an

] Stock"), of the Company.
In order to induce you and the other Underwriters to enter into the
Underwriting Agreement, the undersigned will not, without the prior written
consent of [ ], offer, sell, contract to sell, or otherwise
dispose of, directly or indirectly, any shares of capital stock of the Company
or any securities convertible into, or exercisable or exchangeable for such
capital stock, for a period of days after the date of this
Agreement; provided, however, that (i) the undersigned shall be entitled to
-------- -------
pledge, hypothecate or otherwise encumber shares of Common Stock, subject to the
foregoing restriction being agreed to by the pledgee of such shares and (ii) the
officers of the Company may, without such consent, sell or otherwise dispose of
up to shares of Common Stock in the aggregate.
If for any reason the Underwriting Agreement shall be terminated prior
to the Closing Date (as defined in the Underwriting Agreement), the agreement
set forth above shall likewise be terminated.
Yours very truly,
