EXECUTION COPY
PURCHASE AGREEMENT AMENDMENT
This Purchase Agreement Amendment (this "Amendment") is made
and entered into as of the 25th day of July, 2001 by and among ADVANCEPCS, a
Delaware Corporation ("Buyer"), and the persons listed on Schedule I (herein
referred to individually as a "Seller" and collectively, as the "Sellers").
WHEREAS, Buyer and certain of the Sellers listed on Schedule I
to this Amendment (the "Initial Sellers") entered into that certain Stock
Purchase Agreement dated as of June 18, 2001 ( the "Purchase Agreement");
WHEREAS, Section 3.3(b) of the Purchase Agreement provides
that prior to the Closing the Possible Optionees may exercise options to acquire
their respective Option Shares;
WHEREAS, Section 3.3(b) of the Purchase Agreement further
provides that a Possible Optionee shall not be permitted to exercise such option
or to acquire any Option Shares unless and until such Possible Optionee executes
and delivers to Buyer and the Initial Sellers a Purchase Agreement Amendment in
form and substance acceptable to Buyer and the Initial Sellers in their sole
discretion and which otherwise meets the requirements of Section 3.3(b) of the
Purchase Agreement;
WHEREAS, the Possible Optionees desire to exercise their
respective options and to acquire the Option Shares, and desire to enter into
this Amendment in order to do so;
WHEREAS, this Amendment is the Purchase Agreement Amendment
referenced in Section 3.3(b) of the Agreement; and
WHEREAS, capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall
have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Purchase Agreement;
NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the
receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties intending
to be legally bound, hereby agree as follows:
1. Amendment to Recitals
The Purchase Agreement is hereby amended by deleting
the first WHEREAS clause thereof in its entirety and inserting the following new
WHEREAS clause in lieu thereof:
"WHEREAS, the Sellers own, in the aggregate,
two hundred eighty three and 334/1000
(283.334) shares (the "SHARES" ) of the no
par value Common Stock and Class B Common
Stock (the "COMPANY STOCK") of
Xxxxxxx-Xxxxxxx, Inc., an Ohio corporation
(the "COMPANY"), being all the issued
outstanding shares of capital stock of the
Company;"
2
2. Replacement of Schedule I
The Purchase Agreement is hereby amended by deleting
Schedule I thereto in its entirety and inserting Schedule I to this Amendment in
lieu thereof.
3. Possible Optionees As Sellers
A. The Purchase Agreement is hereby amended by
redefining the term "Sellers" as used therein to mean and include, in addition
to the Initial Sellers, each of the Possible Optionees identified in Schedule
3.3(b) of the Purchase Agreement who are as follows (hereinafter individually an
"Additional Seller" and collectively the "Additional Sellers"):
o Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxxx
o Xxxxx Xxxxxxx
o Xxxxxx Xxxxxx
o Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxx
o Xxxxxx Xxxxxx
o Xxxx Xxx Xxxxxx
o Xxxx Xxxxxx
o Xxxxxxx X. Xxxxxx 1993 Irrevocable
Trust (00-0000000)
B. Each Additional Seller, by such Additional
Seller's execution and delivery of this Amendment, hereby agrees to be subject
to, and fully bound by, all of the terms and conditions of the Purchase
Agreement (including but not limited to all representations, warranties,
conditions, covenants, indemnification rights and obligations, and all other
terms and conditions therein) to the same force and effect as though each such
Additional Seller executed and delivered such Purchase Agreement as a Seller
thereunder at and as of June 18, 2001.
C. Each Additional Seller, by such Additional
Seller's execution and delivery of this Amendment, hereby forever relinquishes,
forfeits and disclaims any and all rights, options and entitlements whatsoever
(other than the Option Shares) (i) that such Additional Seller has or may have
to purchase or otherwise acquire any shares of the Company Stock or the TheraCom
Stock or any equity securities or other securities of any Acquired Company and
(ii) that arose or were in effect prior to the date of this Amendment.
4. No Increase in Purchase Price
The total Purchase Price payable by Buyer under the
Purchase Agreement shall not be increased as a result of Buyer's purchase of any
Option Shares or Purchase Shares from an Additional Seller, but rather such
Purchase Price will only be reallocated as specified on Schedule I to this
Amendment to reflect the inclusion of the Additional Sellers as Sellers under
the Purchase Agreement.

5, Sellers' Representatives
A. Each of Xxxxxx X. Xxxxxxx and Xxxx X. Xxxxxx
hereby is designated as the representative (each, a "Sellers' Representative"
and, collectively, the "Sellers' Representatives") to act for and represent all
the Sellers with respect to all matters arising out of the Purchase Agreement,
the Escrow Agreement and the Additional Payment Escrow Agreement and in those
other matters which require notice to be given to the Sellers under the Purchase
Agreement, the Escrow Agreement and the Additional Payment Escrow Agreement.
Each Seller hereby unconditionally and irrevocably appoints each of the Sellers'
Representatives as such Seller's agent, proxy and attorney-in-fact, with full
power of substitution, for all purposes set forth in this Amendment, including
the full power and authority on such Seller's behalf to (i) consummate the
transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement, (ii) execute and deliver
the Escrow Agreement and Additional Payment Escrow Agreement on behalf of the
Sellers and such other documents and certificates that are required to be
delivered by Sellers at Closing pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, (iii)
disburse any AdvancePCS Stock delivered pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the
Escrow Agreement or the Additional Payment Escrow Agreement to the Sellers, (iv)
act for and represent all the Sellers with respect to all matters arising out of
the Purchase Agreement, the Escrow Agreement and the Additional Payment Escrow
Agreement and agree to any resolution of any and all claims thereunder, and (v)
do each and every act and exercise any and all rights which such Seller or
Sellers are permitted or required to do or exercise under this Amendment, the
Purchase Agreement, the Escrow Agreement, the Additional Payment Escrow
Agreement and the other agreements, documents and certificates relating hereto
or thereto; provided, however, that the joint approval of both of the Sellers'
Representatives shall be required for each of the foregoing matters. Either of
the Sellers' Representatives may resign at any time. In the event of the death
or resignation of a Sellers' Representative, a new Sellers' Representative shall
be appointed by the Sellers by a written consent signed by the Sellers, or their
legal representatives, who collectively own more than 50% of the shares of
Company Stock held by all the Sellers (the "Majority Holders"), such appointment
to become effective upon the written acceptance thereof by the new Sellers'
Representative. Any failure by the Majority Holders to appoint a new Sellers'
Representative upon the death or resignation of any Sellers' Representative
shall not have the effect of releasing the Sellers from any liability under the
Purchase Agreement or otherwise.
B. The Sellers' Representatives shall have such
powers and authority as are necessary to carry out the functions assigned to the
Sellers' Representatives under this Amendment; provided, however, that the
Sellers' Representatives shall have no obligation to act on behalf of the
Sellers, except as expressly provided herein. The Sellers' Representatives will
at all times be entitled to rely on any directions received from the Sellers.
The Sellers' Representatives shall, at the expense of the Sellers shared pro
rata based on their percentage ownership interest in the Purchase Shares as set
forth on Schedule I, be entitled to engage such counsel, experts and other
agents and consultants as they shall deem necessary in connection with
exercising their powers and performing their functions hereunder and (in the
absence of bad faith on the part of the Sellers' Representatives) shall be
entitled to conclusively rely on the opinions and advice of such Persons.
C. The Sellers' Representatives shall not be entitled
to any fee, commission or other compensation for the performance of their
services hereunder, but shall be entitled to be reimbursed by the Sellers for
all of their expenses incurred as the Sellers' Representatives. In connection
with the Purchase Agreement, the Escrow Agreement, the Additional Payment Escrow
Agreement and any instrument, agreement or document relating hereto or thereto,
and in exercising or failing to exercise all or any of the powers conferred upon
the Sellers' Representatives in this Amendment, a Sellers' Representative shall
incur no responsibility whatsoever to any Seller by reason of any error in
judgment or other act or omission performed or omitted in connection with the
Purchase Agreement, the Escrow
-3-
4
Agreement, the Additional Payment Escrow Agreement or any such other agreement,
instrument or document, except for any act or failure to act which constitutes
gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of such Sellers'
Representative. Each Seller shall indemnify, pro rata based upon such Seller's
percentage interest in the Purchase Shares as set forth on Schedule I, the
Sellers' Representatives against all losses, damages, liabilities, claims,
obligations, costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys', accountants'
and other experts' or consultant's fees and the amount of any judgment against
the Sellers' Representatives, of any nature whatsoever (including any and all
expense whatsoever reasonably incurred in investigating, preparing or defending
against any litigation, commenced or threatened or any claims whatsoever),
arising out of or in connection with any claim, investigation, challenge, action
or proceeding or in connection with any appeal thereof, relating to the acts or
omissions of the Sellers' Representatives. The foregoing indemnification shall
not apply in the event of any action or proceeding which finally adjudicates the
liability of a Sellers' Representative hereunder for his gross negligence or
willful misconduct. In the event of any indemnification hereunder, upon written
notice from the Sellers' Representatives to the Sellers as to the existence of a
deficiency toward the payment of any such indemnification amount, each such
Seller shall promptly deliver to the Sellers' Representatives full payment of
such Seller's ratable share of the amount of such deficiency, in accordance with
such Seller's percentage interest in the Purchase Shares as set forth on
Schedule I.
D. All of the indemnities, immunities and powers
granted to the Sellers' Representatives under this Amendment shall survive the
Closing and/or any termination of this Amendment, the Purchase Agreement, the
Escrow Agreement and/or the Additional Payment Escrow Agreement.
E. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary,
each Seller (including the Sellers' Representatives) hereby acknowledges that
the Buyer shall not have any responsibility or obligation whatsoever to any such
Seller, to the Sellers' Representatives or to any other party with respect to or
arising out of any actions taken or any inaction by any Sellers' Representative.
The Buyer shall have the right to rely conclusively upon all actions taken or
omitted to be taken by the Sellers' Representatives pursuant to this Amendment,
the Purchase Agreement, the Escrow Agreement and the Additional Payment Escrow
Agreement and any of the other agreements, documents, and certificates relating
hereto or thereto, all of which actions or omissions shall be legally binding
upon all the Sellers.
F. It is hereby acknowledged and agreed that the
appointment of the Sellers' Representatives to act for and represent all the
Sellers (including but not limited to the appointment of the Sellers'
Representatives as each Seller's agent, proxy and attorney-in-fact) as provided
in this Section 5 is an accommodation to the Sellers and, as a result, Sellers,
jointly and severally, will indemnify and hold harmless the Buyer Indemnified
Persons for, and will pay to the Buyer Indemnified Persons the amount of, any
Damages incurred, arising, directly or indirectly, from or in connection with
the appointment of the Sellers' Representatives to act for and represent all the
Sellers (and as each Seller's agent, proxy and attorney-in-fact) as provided in
this Section 5.
6. Amendment to Notice Provision
The Purchase Agreement is hereby amended by deleting Section
12.4 thereof in its entirety and inserting the following new Section 12.4 in
lieu thereof:
