REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE PURCHASERS
------------------------------------------------
Each Purchaser, severally and not jointly, hereby represents and
warrants to the Company, as of the date of this Agreement and as of the Closing
Date, as follows:
SECTION 3.01. AUTHORITY; EXECUTION AND DELIVERY; AND ENFORCEABILITY.
Such Purchaser has full power and authority to execute this Agreement and to

SECTION 3.03. RESTRICTED SHARES. (a) Such Purchaser (other than ATI) is
not a "U.S. Person" as that term is defined in Regulation S promulgated under
the Securities Act of 1933 (as amended, the "SECURITIES ACT") and is not
acquiring the Shares for the account or benefit of a U.S. Person. Under
Regulation S, with certain exceptions, "U.S. Person" means: (i) any natural
4
person resident in the U.S.; (ii) any partnership or corporation organized or
incorporated under the laws of the U.S.; (iii) any estate of which any executor
or administrator is a U.S. person; (iv) any trust of which any trustee is a U.S.
person; (v) any agency or branch of a foreign entity located in the U.S.; (vi)
any non-discretionary account or similar account (other than an estate or trust)
held by a dealer or other fiduciary for the benefit or account of a U.S. person;
(vii) any discretionary account or similar account (other than an estate or
trust) held by a dealer or other fiduciary organized, incorporated, or (if an
individual) resident in the U.S.; and (viii) any partnership or corporation if:
(A) organized or incorporated under the laws of any foreign jurisdiction; and
(B) formed by a U.S. person principally for the purpose of investing in
securities not registered under the Securities Act, unless it is organized or
incorporated and owned by accredited investors (as defined in Rule 501(a) under
the Securities Act) who are not natural persons, estates or trusts.
(b) Such Purchaser acknowledges and understands that the Shares
constitute a "restricted security" under the Securities Act and have not been
registered under the Securities Act in reliance upon specific exemption
therefrom, which exemption depends upon, among other things, the bona fide
nature of such Purchaser's representations as expressed herein. Such Purchaser
further understands that the Shares must be held indefinitely unless they are
subsequently registered under the Securities Act or an exemption from such
registration is available. In addition, such Purchaser is acquiring the Shares
for investment for its own account and not with the view to, or for resale in
connection with, any distribution thereof. Moreover, such Purchaser understands
that the Company is under no obligation to register the Shares. Such Purchaser
understands that the certificate evidencing the Shares will be imprinted with a
legend as described in Section 1.03(b) which prohibits the transfer of the
Shares unless they are registered or such registration is not required.
ARTICLE IV.
COVENANTS
---------
SECTION 4.01. RESTRICTIONS UNDER THE MERGER AGREEMENT. From the Closing
until the earlier of (a) the termination of the Merger Agreement and (b) the
Effective Time (as defined in the Merger Agreement), each Purchaser (either as a
shareholder, director or officer of the Company) shall not permit the Company to
take any actions that would be prohibited under the terms of the Merger
Agreement.
SECTION 4.02. COVENANT OF XXXXXXXXX AND XXXXXX. From and after the
Closing, neither Xxxxxxxxx nor Xxxxxx shall sell, transfer, assign, pledge,
grant a security interest in or otherwise dispose of or encumber any Shares or
other equity interests of the Company held by such Purchaser without (a) the
written consent of ATI (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld) and (b)
until the earlier of (i) the termination of the Merger Agreement and (ii) the
Effective Time (as defined in the Merger Agreement), the written consent of LTDN
(such consent not to be unreasonably withheld).
5
SECTION 4.03. REASONABLE EFFORTS. (a) On the terms and subject to the
conditions of this Agreement, each Purchaser and the Company shall use its
reasonable efforts to cause the Closing to occur, including taking all
reasonable actions necessary to comply promptly with all legal requirements that
may be imposed on it with respect to the Closing.
(b) Each Purchaser and the Company shall use its reasonable efforts to
obtain, and to cooperate in obtaining, all consents from third parties necessary
or appropriate to permit the transfer of the ATI Assets and the ATI Nuklear
Assets to the Company. Each Purchaser and the Company shall use its reasonable
efforts to negotiate with creditors relating to the ATI Assumed Liabilities and
ATI Nuklear Assumed Liabilities to (i) convert such obligations to common stock
of ATI prior to the Closing, (ii) cancel or permanently reduce such obligations
prior to the Closing and/or (iii) consent to the assumption of such obligations
by the Company and the release of ATI or ATI Nuklear, as the case may be, of
such obligations.
SECTION 4.04. EXPENSES. Whether or not the Closing takes place all
costs and expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement, the Ancillary
Agreements, the ATI Xxxx of Sale and the ATI Nuklear Xxxx of Sale and the
transactions contemplated hereby and thereby shall be paid by the party
incurring such expense.
SECTION 4.05. FURTHER ASSURANCES. From time to time, as and when
requested by ATI or ATI Nuklear, the Company shall execute and deliver, or cause
to be executed and delivered, all such documents and instruments and shall take,
or cause to be taken, all such further actions, as ATI or ATI Nuklear may
reasonably deem necessary or desirable to consummate the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement, including, executing and delivering to ATI or
ATI Nuklear such assignments, consents and other instruments as ATI or ATI
Nuklear may reasonably request as necessary or desirable for such purpose.
SECTION 4.06. GERMAN INCORPORATION. The parties hereto will in good
faith discuss the possibility of reincorporating the Company under the laws of
Germany within 90 days after the date hereof. The parties are aware that this
U.S. company cannot be incorporated in Germany under the laws of Germany. German
corporate law has no statutes that would allow this. It will be mandatory to
form a new German entity, which might preferably be a "Gesellschaft mit
beschraenkter Haftung", abbreviated "GmbH", that can be compared with a Limited
Liability Company according to U.S. law. This company must either receive the
assets of this U.S. Company, including but not limited to the customer contracts
and all tangible and intangible assets. The parties will also discuss
alternative ways of reaching the economic result that is under German law
comparable with reincorporating the U.S. company within the U.S. In case the
parties will decide to form a new German company that might most likely be a
GmbH, they hereby already agree that Xxxxxx and Xxxxxxxxx will become managing
directors (Geschaeftsfuehrer) of such a new German Company.
