6. ISSI royalty stream transferred to Lenders. As payments are
received, monies are applied to Note A (and then to Note C, if
outstanding) in reverse order of maturity, (i.e., balloon first).
Thereafter, Note B is reduced.
7. Mandatory prepayment of all asset sale proceeds to Note A (and then
to Note C, if outstanding) in reverse order of maturity (i.e.,

approved in writing by the Lenders.
8. Xxxxxxxx is authorized to settle the obligations to earnout
creditors on terms substantially the same as are set forth in a
letter of intent with Marbury Manor LLC, a Settlement Agreement with
Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxx and a Settlement Agreement with the FCC/Hartland
Group, respectively, in the form attached to this Term Sheet, and
shall not settle the earnout obligations on any other terms without
prior bank consent.
9. Ownership Restructure (in exchange for reduction of $11.5mm of debt,
plus accrued but unpaid interest prior to April 1, 2001).
- Condor will take the following recapitalization steps, subject to
approval of Condor stockholders, described below:
A. First, a reverse stock split of all outstanding shares of the
Company in a ratio to be determined by the Company.
B. Second, the issuance to a trust established by the Lender
Group (the "Trust"), of that number of Common shares that will
represent 55% of
all outstanding shares of the Company, following the
actions described below (including contemplated future
issuances in C below).
C. Third, the issuance or reservation for future issuance of
additional shares of Common Stock to provide for (a)
settlement of all earnout obligations of the Company; and (b)
issuances under certain Board-approved stock-based management
incentive plans of the Company (including outstanding stock
options of the Company). These shares, together with "old
equity" shares, shall aggregate not less than 45% of all
shares outstanding (including contemplated future issuances).
The foregoing proposed stock issuances and stock reserves will be
submitted for approval to Stockholders of the Company at the Annual
Meeting of Stockholders to be held on May 3, 2001 (record date March
9, 2001), as part of a proposal for the recapitalization of the
Company.
The Trust shall issue to the members of the Lender Group, Note D, in
the amount of $11.5mm that shall be secured by the Common Stock. Any
amounts remaining in the Trust following the disposition of the
stock shall be distributed to the participants in the Trust in
accordance with their interests.
All interests in the Trust and all of the Notes shall be freely
assignable by each of the Lenders in any combination (subject to the
consent of the Agent, which consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld).
10. The Borrowers shall continue to engage as part of the management
team a professional manager acceptable to the Lenders and the
Company and shall utilize such professional manager at all times
until the above-referenced notes are paid in full (unless consented
to by all the Lenders). The professional manager, in conjunction
with other members of management, will report to and act on behalf
of the Board of Directors to implement and carry out the business
plan.
11. The business plan that has been provided to the Lenders should be
expanded to include the financial detail and assumptions that
support and upon which the plan is based. The completed business
plan with the supporting detail should be delivered to the lenders
by a mutually agreeable date. The business plan must be acceptable
to all members of the Borrowers' management team, including, without
limitation, the professional manager. The events that would trigger
an event of default would be the failure of the Company to deliver a
revised business plan.
