Xxxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxx 00000
Attn: Xxx Xxxx
SUBJECT: Asset Purchase
Dear Xxx:
The purpose of this letter is to serve as a proposal by which TEAM Mucho, Inc.
("TEAM"), will negotiate in good faith with RisComp Industries, Inc. ("RCI"),
regarding an acquisition by TEAM of certain assets of RCI. The principal terms
of this proposed asset purchase would be as follows:
1. ASSETS TO BE PURCHASED. TEAM will acquire certain agreed upon PEO assets
of RCI ("Purchased Assets"), subject to the conditions set forth herein.
2. PURCHASE PRICE. The total consideration to be paid by TEAM to RCI, Xxx
Xxxx and Xxxx Xxxx (the "Purchase Price") will be in cash and paid as follows:
The Purchase Price will be equal to the actual gross profit generated by
TEAM from the Purchased Assets (the "Gross Profit"--as determined consistent
with the manner in which Team calculates its Gross Profit and as reviewed by
TEAM's outside auditors) during the 24 months following the Closing (as
hereinafter defined) times a multiplier. The multiplier for the first 12 month's
Gross Profit will be 0.575 (57 1/2%) and the multiplier for the second 12
month's Gross Profit will be 0.30 (30%).
3. PAYMENT OF THE PURCHASE PRICE. At Closing, RCI will be paid $1,300,000
(the "RCI Down Payment") and each of Xxxxxx Xxxx and Xxxx Xxxx will receive
$100,000 (the "Wood Down Payment") as a down payment (the RCI Down Payment and
the Wood Down Payment, collectively, the "Down Payment") against the actual
purchase price. Within 45 days of the end of the first 12 months following
Closing, the actual Gross Profit for such period will be calculated. The balance
of the Purchase Price will be paid in two installments: the first, to be paid
within 14 months of Closing, will be an amount which when added to the Down
Payment equals 57 1/2% of the first 12 month's actual Gross Profit ("First Year
Payment"); and the second, to be paid within 26 months of the Closing, will
equal 30% of the second 12 month's Gross Profit ("Second Year Payment"). Xxxxxx
and Xxxx Xxxx shall receive, to be shared in equal portions, the first $150,000
from each of the First Year Payment and the Second Year Payment.
4. ALLOCATION OF PURCHASE PRICE. The Purchase Price shall be allocated as
follows:
a) $250,000 of the Purchase Price in consideration of a non-compete
agreement with Xxx Xxxx;
b) $250,000 of the Purchase Price in consideration of a non-compete
agreement with Xxxx Xxxx;
c) The balance of the Purchase Price in consideration of the
Purchased Assets.
5. REPLACEMENT OR ADDED ASSETS. The Gross Profit calculation as described
above shall include the Gross Profit from Assets added to TEAM's portfolio
through the efforts of Xxx Xxxx pursuant to his consulting agreement with TEAM
as provided for below which assets shall serve to replace any lost assets or
shall constitute a
net addition to the assets acquired during the 24 months following closing.
6. USE OF DOWN PAYMENT. Proceeds from the RCI Down Payment will be used to
pay existing bank obligations of RCI which currently encumber the Purchased
Assets (approximately $700,000 at the signing of this Letter). $350,000 is to be
deposited into the Health Trust to be established pursuant to section 17 below.
The remaining portion of the RCI Down Payment will be paid to RCI .
7. NO ASSUMPTION OF LIABILITIES.. TEAM will not assume any of RCI's
liabilities unless by further negotiation additional assets and certain
liabilities become part of the transaction. Assuming no change in the terms, RCI
will be responsible and make adequate provision for its liabilities.
8. STRUCTURE. The exact form and structure of the transaction will be
subject to the execution of a definitive agreement and approval by the Boards of
each company.
9. EMPLOYMENT CONTRACTS. In all events the proposed purchase and sale will
be contingent upon the execution of mutually satisfactory employment agreements
whereby TEAM will employ Xxx Xxxx as a consultant for a minimum of twenty-four
months and Xxxx Xxxx pursuant to a one year renewable contract, which contract
will be automatically renewed except for cause. The employment agreements shall
provide for a salary of not less than $100,000 per annum, plus all benefits
normally provided to executives of TEAM for Xxxx Xxxx, and $75,000 per annum
plus incentive payments and benefits for Xxxxxx Xxxx. The agreements shall
permit Xxxx Xxxx to provide up to 10 hours per week service to RCI for its
continued operations. TEAM acknowledges Xxx Xxxxx duties with RCI will require
approximately 20 hours per week.
10. FEES AND EXPENSES. Each Party will be solely responsible for fees or
commissions due any broker or finder retained by either of them. Except as
otherwise provided, each party will be responsible for its own expenses.
11. PUBLIC ANNOUNCEMENTS. All press releases and public announcements
relating to the transaction will be agreed and prepared jointly by TEAM and RCI.
12. STANDSTILL. In consideration of the substantial expenditure of time,
effort and expense being undertaken by the parties in connection with this
transaction, the parties agree that for a period ending on November 15, 2001,
RCI and its representatives will not enter into any agreement, discussion, or
negotiation with, or provide information to, or solicit, encourage, entertain or
consider any inquiries or proposals from any other firm or person with respect
to the sale of assets, a sale of stock, a merger, consolidation or similar
transaction. If Closing has not occurred by November 15, 2001, neither party
will have any further obligation to the other hereunder unless the standstill
period has been extended.

cooperate fully with TEAM in the due diligence process in order to consummate
the transaction contemplated hereby as expeditiously as possible.
14. DEFINITIVE AGREEMENT. Following the parties agreement on this Letter of
Intent, the parties will use their best efforts to negotiate and enter into a
definitive purchase agreement (the "Definitive Agreement"), which agreement
would contain the terms and conditions of this Restated Letter of Intent and
such other representations, warranties, indemnities, and other terms and
conditions as are ordinary and customary for transactions in the nature of a
transaction of this type.
15. CONFIDENTIALITY. Each of the parties hereto agrees that all information
obtained by them in the course of negotiating the transactions described in this

transactions will be held in strictest confidence by each of the parties hereto
and will be divulged only to those employees and agents of the parties hereto,
including legal counsel, accountants, and financial advisors, who have a need to

Despite the foregoing, such obligations of confidentiality shall not apply
as to information which (i) the disclosing party can show to have been in its
possession prior to its receipt from the other party hereto, (ii) is now or
later becomes generally available to the public through no fault of the
disclosing party, (iii) is available to the public at the time of its receipt by

written materials provided by the other.
16. PARTIALLY BINDING EFFECT OF THIS LETTER OF INTENT. The foregoing is not
intended to be exhaustive, but merely an outline of the basic terms of a
proposal. Other than the provisions of paragraphs 10, 11, 12, 15, 16 and the
cooperation requirement of paragraph 13 which are binding, this Letter of Intent
is not intended to and does not create a binding obligation on the part of any
party, but is merely for the purpose of setting forth our intentions and
providing the basis for the preparation of the necessary definitive agreement.
Legally binding obligations beyond those described in this paragraph will
be established only when, as and if TEAM has completed the due diligence process
to its satisfaction, TEAM has secured the approval of its lenders and the
parties have executed and delivered the definitive agreement.
17. CREATION OF HEALTH TRUST. In order to provide additional collateral to
ensure payment of certain self-funded health care and dental insurance
liabilities ("Health Liabilities") that it will continue to owe, RCI will in
addition to the deposit of $350,000 at closing, assign and place into a trust
(the "Health Trust") accounts receivable and proceeds thereof due to RisComp
Aviation in the amount of at least $1,000,000. Customer payment for the heath
care charges for the period ending November 15, 2000, (approximately $125,000)
will be deposited in the Health Trust. The trustee of the Health Trust will pay
the Health Liabilities as and when due from available funds. If there are
insufficient funds in the Health Trust to pay the Health Liabilities, RCI will
be liable for the payment of the remaining Health Liabilities. If, for whatever
reason, TEAM elects to pay any amount of the Health Liabilities, TEAM will have
the right to offset such payments against either the First Year Payment or
Second Year Payment.
18. CLOSING. Closing will occur on or before November 15, 2001, unless a
different time period is agreed to. Any such extension will automatically extend
the standstill period under paragraph 12 hereof.
19. PREVIOUS AGREEMENTS. This Restated Letter of Intent supercedes all of
the previous agreements in place between TEAM and RCI, including, but not
limited to that letter of intent executed as of August 13, 2001, as amended on
October 17, 2001.
20. WITHDRAWAL. This Restated Letter of Intent shall be deemed withdrawn if
not signed by both parties before the close of business on October 26, 2001.
