SELECTED DEALER AGREEMENT
Dear Sirs: ____________, 1997
We, as the Underwriter named in the below referred to Prospectus (the
"Underwriter") have agreed, subject to the terms and conditions of the
Underwriting Agreement dated this date (the "Underwriting Agreement") to
purchase from Worldwide Wireless Systems, Inc. (the "Company") at the price
set forth on the cover of such Prospectus, 1,500,000 Units and up to an
additional 225,000 Units from the Company being called the "Units"). The Units
and certain of the terms on which they are being purchased and offered are
more fully described in the enclosed Prospectus (the "Prospectus"). Additional
copies of the Prospectus will be supplied to you, in reasonable quantities
upon request.
We, as the Underwriter, are offering to certain dealers ("Selected
Dealers"), among whom we are pleased to include you, part of the Units, at the
public offering price less a concession of $___ per Unit. The offering to
Selected Dealers is made subject to the issuance and delivery of the Units to
us and their acceptance by us, to the approval of legal matters by our
counsel, and to the terms and conditions hereof, and may be made by us on the
basis of the reservation of Units or an allotment against subscription, or
otherwise in our discretion.
The initial public offering price of the Units is set forth in the
Prospectus. With our consent, Selected Dealers may allow a discount of not in
excess of $___ per Unit in selling the Units to other dealers meeting the
requirements of the specifications set forth in the affirmation of dealers
contained in the attached Acceptance and Order. Upon our request, you will
notify us of the identity of any dealer to whom you allow such a discount and
any Selected Dealer from whom you receive such a discount.
All orders will be strictly subject to confirmation and we reserve
the right in our uncontrolled discretion to reject any order in whole or in
part, to accept or reject orders in the order of their receipt or otherwise,
and to allot. You are not authorized to give any information or make any
representation other than as set forth in the Prospectus in connection with
the sale of any of the Units. No dealer is authorized to act as agent for the
Underwriter or for the Company, when offering any of the Units. Nothing
contained herein shall constitute the Selected Dealers partners with us or
with one another.
1
Upon release by us, you may offer the Units at the public offering
price, subject to the terms and conditions hereof. We may, and the Selected
Dealers may, with our consent, purchase Units from and sell Units to each
other at the public offering price less a concession not in excess of the
concession to Selected Dealers.
Payment for Units purchased by you is to be made at our office (or at
such other place as instructed) at the public offering price, on such date as
we may advise, on one day's notice to you, by certified or official bank check
in New York Clearing House funds payable to our order. Delivery to you of
certificates for Units will be made as soon as is practicable thereafter.
Unless specifically authorized by us, payment by you may not be deferred until
delivery of certificates to you. The concession payable to you will be paid as
soon as practicable after the closing.
This Agreement shall terminate at the close of business on the 45th
day after the effective date of the Registration Statement. We may terminate
this Agreement at any time prior thereto by notice to you. Notwithstanding the
termination of this Agreement, you shall remain liable for your proportionate
share of any transfer tax or any liability which may be asserted or assessed
against us or Selected Dealers based upon the claim that the Underwriter and
the Selected Dealers, or any of them, constitute a partnership, association,
unincorporated business or other entity, including in each case your
proportionate share of expenses incurred in defending against any such claim
or liability.
In the event that, prior to the termination of this Agreement we
purchase in the open market or otherwise any Units delivered to you, you agree
to repay to us for the account of the Underwriter the amount of the above
concession to Selected Dealers plus brokerage commissions and any transfer
taxes paid in connection with such purchase; which amounts can be withheld
from the concession otherwise payable to you hereunder. Certificates for Units
delivered on any such purchase need not be the identical certificates
originally issued to you.
At any time prior to the termination of this Agreement, you will,
upon our request, report to us the number of Units purchased by you under this
Agreement which then remain unsold and will, upon our request, sell to us for
the account of the Underwriter the number of such unsold Units that we may
designate, at the public offering price less an amount to be determined by us
not in excess of the concession allowed you.
We shall have full authority to take such action as we may deem
advisable in respect of all matters pertaining to the offering, including,
without limitation, stabilization and over-allotment. We shall be under no
liability to you except for our lack of good faith and for obligations assumed
by us in this Agreement, except that you do not waive any rights that you may
have under the Securities Act of 1933 (the "1933 Act") or the rules and
regulations thereunder.
Upon application to us, we will inform you of the states and other
jurisdictions of the United States in which it is believed that the Units are
qualified for sale under, or are exempt from the requirements of, their
respective securities laws, but we assume no
2
responsibility with respect to your right to sell Units in any jurisdiction.
We have filed a Further State Notice with respect to the Units with the
Department of State of the State of New York.
You confirm that you are familiar with Rule 15c2-8 under the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "1934 Act"), relating to the distribution
of preliminary and final prospectuses, and confirm that you have complied and
will comply therewith (whether or not the Company is subject to the reporting
requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the 1934 Act). We will make available
to you, to the extent made available to us by the Company such number of
copies of the Prospectus as you may reasonably request for purposes
contemplated by the 1933 Act, the 1934 Act, and the rules and regulations
thereunder.
Your attention is directed to Rule 10b-6 under the 1934 Act, which
contains certain prohibitions against trading by a person interested in a
distribution until such person has completed its participation in the
distribution. You confirm that you will at all times comply with the
provisions of such Rule in connection with this offering.
Any notice from us shall be deemed to have been duly given if
telephoned, and subsequently mailed or transmitted by any standard form of
written tele-communication to you at the address to which this Agreement is
mailed, or if so mailed or transmitted in the first instance.
Please advise us promptly by telephone or any standard form of
written telecommunication of the principal amount of Units ordered by you and
confirm your agreement hereto by signing the Acceptance and Order on the
enclosed duplicate hereof and returning promptly such signed duplicate copy to
Dupont Securities Group, Inc., 00 Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxxx Xxx, XX 00000. Upon
receipt thereof, this instrument and such signed duplicate copy will evidence
the agreement between us.
Very truly yours,
DUPONT SECURITIES GROUP, INC.
