RECITALS
WHEREAS, the Company desires to sell to the Purchasers, and the
Purchasers desire to purchase from the Company, up to an
aggregate of 10,503,862 units (each a
“Unit”), each Unit consisting of one
share of common stock, par value $.01 per share, of the
Company (“Common Stock”) and a five year
warrant (a “Warrant”) to purchase
one-third of one share of Common Stock, on the terms and
conditions set forth in this Agreement; and
WHEREAS, the Company and each Purchaser are executing and
delivering this Agreement in reliance upon an exemption from
securities registration afforded by Regulation D
(“Regulation D”) as promulgated by
the Securities and Exchange Commission (the
“SEC”) under the Securities Act of 1933,
as amended (the “Securities Act”).
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing, the mutual
promises hereinafter set forth, and other good and valuable
consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby
acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:
1. AGREEMENT TO PURCHASE AND SELL STOCK.
(a) Company Authorization. The Company’s
Board of Directors has authorized the issuance and sale,
pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, of up to
10,503,862 shares of Common Stock (the
“Purchased Shares”) and up to 3,466,274
Warrants, substantially in the form attached hereto as
Exhibit A. Each Warrant shall be exercisable to
purchase the number of shares of Common Stock set forth thereon
at a price of $3.04 per share of Common Stock (the
“Purchased Warrants” and together with
the Purchased Shares, the “Purchased
Securities”). Subject to their terms and
conditions, the Purchased Warrants shall be exercisable at any
time and from time to time from and after the six-month
anniversary of the Closing Date through and including
August 9, 2010.
(b) Agreement to Purchase and Sell Securities.
(i) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, each Purchaser, severally and not jointly, agrees to purchase, and the Company agrees to sell to each Purchaser, at the Closing (as defined below), that number of Units (including the Firm Units and Excess Units, each as defined below) set forth opposite such Purchaser’s name on Schedule A attached hereto. The purchase price of each Unit shall be $2.50 (the “Per Unit Price”), except in the case of each Unit purchased by a director or officer of the Company which shall be $2.99 (the “Insider Per Unit Price”) and each shall be payable as hereafter set forth. | |
(ii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, on the Closing Date, no more than 6,302,318 Units representing 6,302,318 shares of Common Stock (the “Firm Shares”) and associated Warrants (the “Firm Warrants”, and together with the Firm Shares, the “Firm Units”) shall be issued to the Purchasers prior to the Company obtaining shareholder approval to issue to the Purchasers the shares of Common Stock in excess of the Firm Units in accordance with the requirements of NASDAQ Rule 4350(i) and Section 5(d) hereto (the “Shareholder Approval”). Prior to obtaining the Shareholder Approval, the Units to be purchased by the Purchasers (including the Warrants thereto) representing Purchased Shares in excess of the Firm Units (the “Excess Units”) shall not be issued to the Purchasers and instead the proceeds in respect of such Excess Units (the “Excess Funds”) shall be deposited into |
A-1
escrow, in accordance with the terms of an escrow agreement, substantially in the form of Exhibit D hereto (the “Escrow Agreement”). The Excess Funds shall accrue interest from and including the day following the Closing Date to and excluding the date of release in accordance with the terms of the Escrow Agreement at a rate of 7.0% per annum (computed on the basis of a 365-day year). If the Company obtains the Shareholder Approval prior to the Shareholder Approval Date (as defined below), the Excess Funds shall be released to the Company in accordance with the Escrow Agreement, and the Excess Units shall be issued to each of the Purchasers in the amounts set forth on Schedule A hereto, along with such Purchaser’s pro rata share of accrued interest on the Excess Funds to such date, which shall be payable in cash. If the Company does not obtain the Shareholder Approval prior to the Shareholder Approval Date (as defined below), the Excess Funds shall be returned to each of the Purchasers in accordance with the terms of the Escrow Agreement, along with such Purchaser’s pro rata share of accrued interest on the Excess Funds to such date. If the Excess Funds accrue earnings or interest in escrow at a rate less than the rate required by this Section 1(b)(ii), the Company shall promptly pay to the Purchasers any shortfall amount. |
(c) Use of Proceeds. The Company intends to
use the net proceeds from the sale of the Purchased Securities
for working capital and general corporate purposes as determined
by the Company from time to time.
(d) Obligations Several, Not Joint. The
obligations of each Purchaser under this Agreement are several
and not joint with respect to the obligations of any other
Purchaser, and no Purchaser shall be responsible in any way for
the performance of the obligations of any other Purchaser under
this Agreement. The decision of each of the Purchasers to
purchase the Purchased Securities pursuant to this Agreement has
been made by such Purchaser independently of any other
Purchaser. Nothing contained herein, and no action taken by any
Purchaser pursuant hereto, shall be deemed to constitute the
Purchasers as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or
any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the
Purchasers are in any way acting in concert or as a group with
respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by
this Agreement. Each Purchaser shall be entitled to
independently protect and enforce such Purchaser’s rights,
including, without limitation, the rights arising out of this
Agreement, and it shall not be necessary for any other Purchaser
to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such
purpose.
2. CLOSING. The purchase and sale of the
Purchased Securities shall take place at the offices of Xxxxx
Xxxxx L.L.P., 0000 Xxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxxx, Xxxxx 00000, at
2:00 p.m. Dallas, Texas time, on August 9, 2005, or at
such other time and place as the Company and Purchasers
representing a majority of the Purchased Securities to be
purchased, mutually agree upon (which time and place are
referred to in this Agreement as the
“Closing”). At the Closing, against
delivery of full payment for the Purchased Securities sold
hereunder by wire transfer of immediately available funds in
accordance with the Company’s instructions; the Company
shall issue and deliver to each Purchaser (i) one or more
stock certificates registered in the name of each Purchaser (or
in such nominee name(s) as designated by such Purchaser in the
Stock Certificate and Warrant Questionnaire, attached hereto as
Appendix I (the “Stock Certificate
Questionnaire”), representing the number of Firm
Shares set forth opposite the appropriate Purchaser’s name
on Schedule A hereto, and bearing the legend set
forth in Section 4(k)(i) herein and (ii) the
number of Firm Warrants set forth opposite the appropriate
Purchaser’s name on Schedule A hereto, and
bearing the legend set forth in Section 4(k)(ii);
provided, however, that the Company may furnish to each
Purchaser a facsimile copy of the warrant representing the Firm
Warrant and of the stock certificate(s) representing the Firm
Shares purchased by such Purchaser no later than the next
Business Day following the Closing Date, with the original
warrant and original stock certificate(s) to be delivered to
such Purchaser by overnight courier no later than the third
(3rd) Business Day following the Closing Date. Closing
documents, other than the warrants representing the Firm
Warrants and the stock certificates representing the Firm
Shares, may be delivered by facsimile on the Closing Date, with
original signature pages subsequently sent by overnight courier.

Saturday, Sunday and any day which shall be a federal legal
holiday or a day on which
A-2
banking institutions in the State of New York are authorized or
required by law or other governmental action to close.

with the articles of incorporation, as amended (the
“Articles of Incorporation”), or bylaws,
as amended (the “Bylaws”), of the
Company or of any Subsidiary; (ii) constitute a violation
of any provision of any federal, state, local or foreign
A-4
law, rule, regulation, order or decree applicable to the Company
or any Subsidiary; or (iii) constitute a default (with or
without the passage of time or giving of notice or both) or
require any consent under, give rise to any right of
termination, cancellation or acceleration of, or result in the
creation or imposition of any lien, claim or encumbrance on any
asset of the Company or the Subsidiaries under, any material
contract to which the Company or the Subsidiaries is a party or
any permit, license or similar right relating to the Company or
the Subsidiaries or by which the Company or the Subsidiaries may
be bound or affected, except in the case of clauses (ii)
and (iii), for such violations, breaches or defaults as would
not be reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect.
(i) Litigation. Except as set forth in the
SEC Documents, there is no action, suit, proceeding, claim,
arbitration or investigation (“Action”)
pending or, to the Company’s knowledge, threatened:
(i) against the Company or any Subsidiary, their properties
or assets, or any officer, director or employee of the Company
or any Subsidiary in connection with such officer’s,
director’s or employee’s relationship with, or actions

the Company’s business or properties, except for any
instance of non-compliance that has not had, and would not
reasonably be expected to have, a Material Adverse Effect.
Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary is in default (and there
exists no condition which, with or without the passage of time
or giving of notice or both, would constitute a default) in any
material respect in the performance of any bond, debenture, note
or any other evidence of indebtedness in any indenture,
mortgage, deed of trust or any other material agreement or
instrument to which the Company or any Subsidiary is a party or
by which the Company or any Subsidiary is bound or by which the
properties of the Company or any Subsidiary is bound, which
default would be reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse
Effect or which would be reasonably likely to have a Material
Adverse Effect on the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement.
(k) Material Non-Public Information. The
Company has not provided, and will not provide, to the
Purchasers any material non-public information other than
information related to the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement, all of which information shall be disclosed by the

A-5
necessary in order to make the statements made therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading and (2) complied in all material respects with the requirements of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations of the SEC promulgated thereunder applicable to such SEC Document. | |

since the filing of the Company’s most recent
Form 10-K with the SEC, the business and operations of the
Company and the Subsidiaries have been conducted in the ordinary
course consistent with past practice, and there has not been:

(ii) any damage, destruction or loss to the Company’s or any Subsidiary’s business or assets, whether or not covered by insurance, except for such occurrences, individually and collectively, that have not had, and would not reasonably be expected to have, a Material Adverse Effect; | |
(iii) any waiver by the Company or any Subsidiary of a valuable right or of a material debt owed to it, except for such waivers, individually and collectively, that have not had, and would not reasonably be expected to have, a Material Adverse Effect; | |

A-6
(n) Intellectual Property. The Company and
its Subsidiaries own or possess sufficient rights to use all
patents, patent rights, inventions, trade secrets, know-how,
trademarks, service marks, trade names, licenses, copyrights or
other information (collectively, “Intellectual
Property”) which are used to conduct their
businesses as currently conducted, except where the failure to
own or possess such sufficient rights would not reasonably be
expected to result, either individually or in the aggregate, in
a Material Adverse Effect. Neither the Company nor any
Subsidiary has received any written notice of, and has no actual
knowledge of, any infringement of or conflict with asserted
rights of others with respect to any Intellectual Property
which, either individually or in the aggregate, if the subject
of an unfavorable decision, ruling or finding, would reasonably
be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, and to the
Company’s and each of the Subsidiaries’ knowledge,
none of the patent rights owned or licensed by the Company or
the Subsidiaries are unenforceable or invalid.
(o) Registration Rights. Except as provided
in Section 5 herein, effective upon the Closing, the
Company is not currently subject to any agreement providing any
person or entity any rights (including piggyback registration
rights) to have any securities of the Company registered with
the SEC or registered or qualified with any other governmental
authority that have not previously been satisfied.
(p) Title to Property and Assets. The
properties and assets of the Company and the Subsidiaries are
owned by the Company or the Subsidiaries free and clear of all
mortgages, deeds of trust, liens, charges, encumbrances and
security interests, except for (i) statutory liens for the
payment of current taxes that are not yet delinquent and
(ii) liens, encumbrances and security interests that arise
in the ordinary course of business and do not in any material
respect affect the business of the Company and the Subsidiaries
as currently conducted. With respect to the property and assets
it leases, each of the Company and the Subsidiaries is in
compliance with such leases in all material respects.
(q) Taxes. The Company and the Subsidiaries
have filed or have valid extensions of the time to file all
necessary federal, state, and foreign income and franchise tax
returns due prior to the date hereof or have requested
extensions thereof (except in any case in which the failure to
so file would not reasonably be expected to have a Material
Adverse Effect) and has paid or accrued all taxes due.

and each of the Subsidiaries maintain a system of internal
accounting controls sufficient to provide reasonable assurance
that (i) transactions are executed in accordance with
management’s general or specific authorizations,
(ii) transactions are recorded as necessary to permit
preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP and
to maintain asset accountability, (iii) access to assets is
permitted only in accordance with management’s general or
specific authorization, and (iv) the recorded
accountability for assets is compared with the existing assets
at reasonable intervals and appropriate action is taken with
respect to any differences.
(s) Market. The Company has not taken and
will not take, directly or indirectly, any action designed to,
or that might reasonably be expected to cause or result in,
stabilization or manipulation of the price of the Common Stock

Securities.
(t) Investment Company. The Company is not an
“investment company” within the meaning of such term
under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.
(u) Application of Anti-Takeover Provisions.
There is no control share acquisition, business combination,

Company’s Articles of Incorporation (or similar charter
documents) that would become applicable to the Purchasers as a
result of the issuance of the Company Shares and Warrant Shares.
(v) General Solicitation. Neither the Company
nor any other Person (as defined below) authorized by the
Company to act on its behalf has engaged in a general
solicitation or general advertising (within the meaning of
Regulation D) of investors with respect to offers or sales
of the Purchased Securities. For purposes of this Agreement,
“Person” means an individual or
corporation, trust, incorporated or unincorporated association,
joint venture, limited liability company, joint stock company,

of any kind.
A-7
(w) Registration Statement Matters. The
Company currently meets the eligibility requirements for use of
a Form S-3 Registration Statement for the resale of the
Registrable Shares (as defined below) by the Purchasers.
Assuming the completion and timely delivery of the Registration
Statement/ Suitability Questionnaire, attached hereto as
Appendix II (the “Registration Statement
Questionnaire”), by each Purchaser to the Company,
the Company is not aware of any facts or circumstances that
would prohibit or delay the preparation and filing of a
registration statement with respect to the Registrable Shares.
(x) No Integrated Offering. Neither the
Company, nor any Affiliate (as hereafter defined) of the
Company, nor any person acting on its behalf has, directly or
indirectly, made any offers or sales of any security or
solicited any offers to buy any security, under circumstances
that would cause this offering of the Purchased Securities to be
integrated with prior offerings by the Company for purposes of
the Securities Act, any applicable state securities laws or any
applicable stockholder approval provisions, nor will the Company
take any action or steps that would cause the offering of the
Purchased Securities to be integrated with other offerings.
For purposes of this Agreement, an
“Affiliate” of any specified Person
means any other Person directly or indirectly controlling,
controlled by or under direct or indirect common control with
such specified Person. For purposes of this definition,
“control” means the power to direct the
management and policies of such person or firm, directly or

to have the effect of terminating, the listing of the Common
Stock on the NASDAQ National Market.

(ii) Prior to any proposed transfer pursuant to clause (B), (C), (D), (E) or (F) in Section 4(j)(i) above, such Purchaser shall give written notice to the Company of such Purchaser’s intention to effect such transfer. Each such notice shall describe the manner and circumstances of the proposed transfer in sufficient detail, and shall be accompanied by the applicable legal opinion, “no action” letter or seller and broker representation letters. | |
(iii) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 4(j), no registration statement, legal opinion or “no action” letter shall be necessary for a transfer of the Purchased Securities or the Warrant Shares (A) by a Purchaser that is a partnership to a partner of such partnership or a retired partner of such partnership who retires after the date of this Agreement, (B) by a Purchaser that is a limited liability company to a member of such limited liability company, (C) by a Purchaser that is a partnership or limited liability company to the estate of any partner, retired partner, or member thereof or (D) by any partner or member of a Purchaser that is a partnership or limited liability company by gift, will or intestate succession to such partner or member’s spouse or to the siblings, lineal descendants, ancestors of such partner or member or his or her spouse. |
(k) Legends.
(i) Such Purchaser agrees that, to the extent necessary, the certificates for the Purchased Shares and the Warrant Shares shall bear the following legend: |
“THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”) OR ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS, AND MAY NOT BE SOLD OR TRANSFERRED UNLESS (I) A REGISTRATION STATEMENT COVERING SUCH SECURITIES IS EFFECTIVE UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR (II) THE TRANSACTION IS EXEMPT FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT AND, IF THE COMPANY REQUESTS, AN OPINION SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY TO SUCH EFFECT HAS BEEN RENDERED BY COUNSEL.” |
Certificates evidencing the Purchased Shares and the Warrant
Shares shall not contain any legend, (i) while a
registration statement (including the Registration Statement)
covering the resale of such security is effective under the
Securities Act, (ii) following any sale of such Purchased
Shares or the Warrant Shares pursuant to Rule 144,
(iii) if such Purchased Shares or the Warrant Shares are
eligible for sale under Rule 144(k) or (iv) if such
legend is not required under applicable requirements of the
Securities Act (including judicial interpretations and
pronouncements issued by the Staff of the SEC). The Company
shall cause its counsel to issue a legal opinion to the
Company’s transfer agent promptly after the date on which
the Registration Statement is declared effective (the
“Effective Date”) if such legal opinion
is required by the Company’s transfer agent to effect the
removal of the legend hereunder. If all or any portion of a
Purchased Warrant is exercised at a time when there is an
effective registration statement to cover the resale of the
Warrant Shares, such Warrant Shares shall be issued free of all
legends. The Company agrees that following the Effective Date or
at such time as such legend is no longer required under this
Section 4(k), it will, no later than five
(5) Business Days following the delivery by a Purchaser to
the Company or to the Company’s transfer agent of a
certificate representing Purchased Shares or the Warrant Shares,
as the case may be, issued with a restrictive legend, deliver or
cause to be delivered to such Purchaser a certificate
representing such Purchased Shares or the Warrant Shares, as the
case may be, that is free from all restrictive and other
legends. The Company may not make any notation on its records or
give instructions to any transfer agent of the Company that
enlarge the restrictions on transfer set forth in
Section 4(j) or this Section 4(k).
Each Purchaser, severally and not jointly with the other
Purchasers, agrees that the removal of the restrictive legend
from certificates representing the Purchased Shares or the
Warrant Shares as set forth in this Section 4(k) is
predicated upon such Purchaser’s covenant that such
Purchaser only will sell any Purchased Shares or Warrant Shares
pursuant to either the registration requirements of the
Securities Act, including any applicable prospectus delivery
requirements, or an exemption therefrom.
A-10
In addition, such Purchaser agrees that the Company may place
stop transfer orders with its transfer agent with respect to
such certificates in order to implement the restrictions on
transfer set forth in this Agreement. The appropriate portion of
the legend and the stop transfer orders will be removed promptly
upon delivery to the Company of such satisfactory evidence as
reasonably may be required by the Company that such legend or
stop transfer orders are not required to ensure compliance with
the Securities Act.
(ii) Such Purchaser agrees that the Purchased Warrants shall bear the following legend: |
“THIS WARRANT AND THE SECURITIES ISSUABLE UPON EXERCISE HEREOF HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”) OR ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS, AND MAY NOT BE SOLD OR TRANSFERRED UNLESS (I) A REGISTRATION STATEMENT COVERING SUCH SECURITIES IS EFFECTIVE UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR (II) THE TRANSACTION IS EXEMPT FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT AND, IF THE COMPANY REQUESTS, AN OPINION SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY TO SUCH EFFECT HAS BEEN RENDERED BY COUNSEL.” |
(l) Questionnaires. Such Purchaser has
completed or caused to be completed the Stock Certificate
Questionnaire and the Registration Statement Questionnaire for
use in preparation of the Registration Statement (as defined in
Section 5(a) below), and the answers to such
questionnaires are true and correct as of the date of this
Agreement; provided, that such Purchaser shall be
entitled to update such information by providing written notice
thereof to the Company before the effective date of the
Registration Statement.

Purchaser nor any Affiliate of such Purchaser which (i) had
knowledge of the transactions contemplated hereby, (ii) has
or shares discretion relating to such Purchaser’s

maintaining a “put equivalent position” (within the
meaning of Rule 16a-1(h) under the Exchange Act) with
respect to, entering into any swap, derivative transaction or
other arrangement (whether any such transaction is to be settled
by delivery of Common Stock, other securities, cash or other
consideration) that transfers to another, in whole or in part,
any economic consequences or ownership, or otherwise dispose of,
any of the Purchased Securities or the Warrant Shares by such
Purchaser or (2) any hedging transaction which establishes

such Purchaser or Affiliate of such Purchaser is acting in the
capacity of a broker-dealer executing unsolicited third-party

has not agreed to act with any other Purchaser for the purpose
of acquiring, holding or disposing of any of the Purchased
Securities or the Warrant Shares for purposes of
Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act, and such Purchaser is
acting independently with respect to its investment in the
Purchased Securities.
(o) Confidentiality. Such Purchaser agrees to
use any information it receives in the course of and in
connection with the transactions contemplated under this
Agreement for the sole purpose of evaluating a
A-11

Company with reasonably prompt notice of any such request or

(c) Transfer of Registrable Shares After
Registration; Suspension.
(i) The Purchasers agree that they will not offer to sell or make any sale, assignment, pledge, hypothecation or other transfer with respect to the Registrable Shares that would constitute a sale within the meaning of the Securities Act except pursuant to either (1) the Registration Statement in the manner described in the “Plan of Distribution” therein, (2) Rule 144 of the Securities Act or (3) any other exemption from registration under the Securities Act, and that they will promptly notify the Company of any changes in the information set forth in the Registration Statement after it is prepared regarding the Purchaser or its plan of distribution to the extent required by applicable law. | |
(ii) In addition to any suspension rights under paragraph (iii) below, upon the happening of any pending corporate development, public filing with the SEC or similar event that, in the good faith judgment of the Board of Directors, renders it advisable to suspend the use of the Prospectus or upon the reasonable request by an underwriter in connection with an underwritten public offering of the Company’s securities, the Company may suspend use of the Prospectus on written notice to each Purchaser (which notice will not disclose the content of any material non-public information and will indicate the date of the beginning and end of the intended period of suspension, if known), in which case each Purchaser shall discontinue any disposition of Registrable Shares covered by the Registration Statement or Prospectus until copies of a supplemented or amended Prospectus are distributed to the Purchasers or until the Purchasers are advised in writing by the Company that sales of Registrable Shares under the applicable Prospectus may be resumed and have received copies of any additional or supplemental filings that are incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference in any such Prospectus. Any such suspension under this paragraph (ii) shall not exceed sixty (60) days in any one hundred-eighty (180) day period or ninety (90) days in any twelve-month period. The suspension and notice thereof described in this Section 5(c)(ii) shall be held by each Purchaser in strictest confidence and shall not be disclosed by such Purchaser. | |

A-14
therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and that in the case of the Prospectus, it will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or any omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, then the Company shall deliver a certificate in writing to the Purchasers (the “Suspension Notice”) to the effect of the foregoing (which notice will not disclose the content of any material non-public information and will indicate the date of the beginning and end of the intended period of suspension, if known), and, upon receipt of such Suspension Notice, the Purchasers will discontinue disposition of Registrable Shares covered by to the Registration Statement or Prospectus (a “Suspension”) until the Purchasers’ receipt of copies of a supplemented or amended Prospectus prepared and filed by the Company, or until the Purchasers are advised in writing by the Company that the current Prospectus may be used and have received copies of any additional or supplemental filings that are incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference in any such prospectus. In the event of any Suspension, the Company will use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the use of the Prospectus so suspended to be resumed as soon as possible after delivery of a Suspension Notice to the Purchasers. The Suspension and Suspension Notice described in this Section 5(c)(iii) shall be held in strictest confidence by each Purchaser and shall not be disclosed by such Purchaser. | |
(iv) Provided that a Suspension is not then in effect, the Purchasers may sell Registrable Shares under the Registration Statement, provided that the selling Purchaser arranges for delivery of a current Prospectus to the transferee of such Registrable Shares to the extent such delivery is required by applicable law. | |
(v) In the event of a sale of Registrable Shares by a Purchaser, such Purchaser must also deliver to the Company’s transfer agent, with a copy to the Company, a certificate of subsequent sale reasonably satisfactory to the Company, so that ownership of the Registrable Shares may be properly transferred. The Company will cooperate to facilitate the timely preparation and delivery of certificates (unless otherwise required by applicable law) representing Registrable Shares sold. |

(ii) Indemnification by each Purchaser. Each Purchaser agrees, severally and not jointly, to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each of the Company’s directors, officers, agents and employees, and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act, against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses to which the Company, the Company’s directors, officers, agents or employees, or any controlling persons may become subject, under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, or any other federal or state statutory law or regulation, or at common law or otherwise (including in settlement of any litigation, if such settlement is effected with the written consent of such Purchaser, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld) insofar as such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses (or actions in respect thereof as contemplated below) arise out of or are based upon any untrue or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by or on behalf of such Purchaser expressly for use therein, and such Purchaser will reimburse the Company, each of its directors, officers, agents and employees, and any controlling persons for any reasonable legal and other expenses incurred by the Company, its directors, officers, agents or employees, or any controlling persons in connection with investigating, defending, settling, compromising or paying any such loss, claim, damage, liability, expense or action; provided, however, that such Purchaser shall not be liable for any such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission with respect to which such Purchaser has delivered to the Company in writing a correction of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission, before the occurrence of the event from which such loss, claim, damage, liability or expense was incurred. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 5(e), such Purchaser shall not be liable for any indemnification obligation under this Agreement in excess of the aggregate amount of net proceeds received by such Purchaser from the sale of the Registrable Shares pursuant to the Registration Statement. |
A-16
(iii) Indemnification Procedure. |
(1) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 5(e) of notice of the threat or commencement of any action, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against an indemnifying party under this Section 5(e), promptly notify the indemnifying party in writing of the claim and provide to the indemnifying party copies of all written documents relating to such threatened or commenced action; but the omission so to notify the indemnifying party will not relieve it from any liability which it may have to any indemnified party for contribution or otherwise under the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 5(e) or otherwise, to the extent it is not prejudiced as a result of such failure. | |
(2) In case any such action is brought against any indemnified party and such indemnified party seeks or intends to seek indemnity from an indemnifying party, the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate in, and, to the extent that it may wish, jointly with all other indemnifying parties similarly notified, to assume the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party; provided, however, that if the defendants in any such action include both the indemnified party and the indemnifying party and counsel to the indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded that there may be a conflict between the positions of the indemnifying party and the indemnified party in conducting the defense of any such action or that there may be legal defenses available to it or other indemnified parties that are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party, the indemnified party or parties shall have the right to select separate counsel to assume such legal defenses and to otherwise participate in the defense of such action on behalf of such indemnified party or parties. Upon receipt of notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to assume the defense of such action and approval by the indemnified party of counsel, the indemnifying party will not be liable to such indemnified party under this Section 5(e) for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof unless: |
a) the indemnified party shall have employed such counsel in connection with the assumption of legal defenses in accordance with the proviso to the preceding sentence (it being understood, however, that the indemnifying party shall not be liable for the expenses of more than one separate counsel, reasonably approved by such indemnifying party, representing all of the indemnified parties who are parties to such action); or | |
b) the indemnifying party shall not have employed counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party to represent the indemnified party within a reasonable time after notice of commencement of the action against the indemnified party, |
in each of which cases the reasonable out-of-pocket fees and expenses of counsel for the indemnified party shall be at the expense of the indemnifying party. |
(iv) Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in this Section 5(e) is required by its terms but is for any reason held to be unavailable to, or is otherwise insufficient to hold harmless, an indemnified party under this Section 5(e) with respect to any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses referred to in this Agreement, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses referred to in this Agreement: |
(1) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative faults of the Company and the Purchasers in connection with the statements or omissions or inaccuracies in the representations and warranties in this Agreement that resulted in such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations, or | |
(2) if the allocation provided by clause (1) above is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative faults referred to in clause (1) above but also the relative benefits received by the Company and the Purchasers from the sale of the Purchased Securities. |
A-17
The respective relative benefits received by the Company on the
one hand and each Purchaser on the other shall be deemed to be
in the same proportion as the amount to which the consideration
paid by such Purchaser to the Company pursuant to this Agreement
for the Registrable Shares purchased by such Purchaser that were
sold pursuant to the Registration Statement bears to the
difference (the “Difference”) between
the amount such Purchaser paid for the Registrable Shares that
were sold pursuant to the Registration Statement and the amount
received by such Purchaser from such sale. The relative fault of
the Company and each Purchaser shall be determined by reference
to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue
statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission
to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the
Company or by such Purchaser and the parties’ relative
intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to
correct or prevent such statement or omission. The amount paid
or payable by a party as a result of the losses, claims,
damages, liabilities and expenses referred to above shall be
deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth in
Section 5(e)(iii), any reasonable legal or other
fees or expenses incurred by such party in connection with
investigating or defending any such action or claim. The
provisions set forth in Section 5(e)(iii) with
respect to the notice of the threat or commencement of any
threat or action shall apply if a claim for contribution is to
be made under this Section 5(e)(iv); provided,
however, that no additional notice shall be required with
respect to any threat or action for which notice has been given
under Section 5(e)(iii) for purposes of
indemnification. The Company and each Purchaser agree that it
would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this
Section 5(e)(iv) were determined solely by pro rata
allocation (even if the Purchasers were treated as one entity
for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation which
does not take account of the equitable considerations referred
to in this paragraph. Notwithstanding the provisions of this
Section 5(e)(iv), no Purchaser shall be required to
contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the
Difference exceeds the amount of any damages that such Purchaser
has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or
alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No
person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the
meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be
entitled to contribution from any person who is not guilty of
such fraudulent misrepresentation. The Purchasers’
obligations to contribute pursuant to this
Section 5(e)(iv) are several and not joint.
(f) Rule 144 Information. For two years
after the date of this Agreement, the Company shall file in a
timely manner all reports required to be filed by it under the
Securities Act and the Exchange Act and the rules and
regulations promulgated thereunder and shall take such further
action to the extent required to enable the Purchasers to sell
the Purchased Securities pursuant to Rule 144 under the
Securities Act (as such rule may be amended from time to time).
(g) Substitution of Escrow Agent. If the
Company (i) gives notice of removal to the Escrow Agent (as
defined in the Escrow Agreement) or (ii) receives a notice
of resignation from the Escrow Agent, the Company will promptly
provide notice of such removal or resignation to the Purchasers.
If the Escrow Agent is removed or resigns as Escrow Agent under
the Escrow Agreement, the Company agrees to appoint a nationally
recognized banking or financial institution, having a trust
office in Houston, Texas or New York, New York, as the successor
escrow agent under the Escrow Agreement.
6. ADVISORY FEE. The Purchasers acknowledge
that the Company intends to pay to X.X. Xxxxxxxxx, Towbin, as
financial advisor, a fee in respect of the sale of the Purchased
Securities. Each of the parties to this Agreement hereby
represents that, on the basis of any actions and agreements by
it, there are no other brokers or finders entitled to
compensation in connection with the sale of the Purchased
Securities to the Purchasers. The Company shall indemnify and
hold harmless the Purchasers from and against all fees,
commission or other payments owing by the Company to X.X.
Xxxxxxxxx, Towbin or any other Person acting on behalf of the
Company hereunder. Each Purchaser shall, severally and not
jointly, indemnify and hold harmless the Company from and
against all fees, commission or other payments owing by such
Purchasers to any Person, other than X.X. Xxxxxxxxx, Towbin,
acting on behalf of the Purchasers hereunder.

(g) Amendments and Waivers. This Agreement
may be amended and the observance of any term of this Agreement
may be waived only with the written consent of the Company and
the Purchasers holding at least a majority of the total
aggregate number of the Purchased Shares and Warrant Shares then
outstanding (excluding any shares then already sold to the
public pursuant to Rule 144 or otherwise); provided,
however, that if the amendment or waiver would materially

Purchaser under this Agreement, the written consent of the
Company and each Purchaser holding Purchased Shares and Warrant
Shares (excluding any Purchased Shares or Warrant Shares sold to

required to effect such amendment or waiver. Any amendment
effected in accordance with this Section 9(g) will

together with all exhibits and schedules hereto, constitute the

Purchasers, the Company and the Purchasers will execute and
deliver such instruments, documents or other writings, and take
such other actions, as may be reasonably necessary or desirable
to confirm and carry out and to effectuate fully the intent and
purposes of this Agreement.
(k) Meaning of Include and Including.
Whenever in this Agreement the word “include” or
“including” is used, it shall be deemed to mean
“include, without limitation” or “including,
without limitation,” as the case may be, and the language
following “include” or “including” shall not
be deemed to set forth an exhaustive list.
(l) Fees, Costs and Expenses. Except as
otherwise provided for in this Agreement, all fees, costs and
expenses (including attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred
by any party hereto in connection with the preparation,
negotiation and execution of this Agreement and the exhibits and
schedules hereto and the consummation of the transactions
contemplated hereby and thereby (including the costs associated
with any filings with, or compliance with any of the
requirements of any governmental authorities), shall be the sole
and exclusive responsibility of such party.
(m) 8-K Filing and Publicity. As soon as
practicable following the execution of this Agreement, but in no
event later than 8:30 a.m., eastern time, on the day
following the Execution Date, the Company shall file a Current
Report on Form 8-K with the SEC describing the terms of the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement and attaching this
Agreement and the press release referred to below as exhibits to
such filing (the “8-K Filing” including
all attachments). Neither the Company nor any Purchaser shall
issue any press releases or any other public statements (other
than any filings required pursuant to applicable securities
laws) with respect to the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement; provided, however, that the Company shall be
entitled, without the prior approval of any Purchaser, to issue
any press release or make any other public disclosure (including
a press release (concerning the offering of the Purchased
Securities) pursuant to Rule 135(c) under the Securities
Act) with respect to such transactions (i) in substantial
conformity with the 8-K Filing and (ii) as is required
by applicable laws and regulations; and, provided further, that
no such release may identify a Purchaser unless such Purchaser
has consented thereto in writing, or as required by law.
(n) Waivers. No waiver by any party to this
Agreement of any default with respect to any provision,
condition or requirement of this Agreement shall be deemed to be
a continuing waiver in the future or a waiver of any other
provision, condition or requirement hereof, nor shall any delay
or omission of any party to exercise any right hereunder in any
manner impair the exercise of any such right accruing to it
thereafter.
(o) Stock Splits, Dividends and other Similar
Events. The provisions of this Agreement shall be
appropriately adjusted to reflect any stock split, stock
dividend, reorganization or other similar event that may occur
with respect to the Company after the date hereof.
(p) Remedies. In addition to being entitled
to exercise all rights provided herein or granted by law,
including recovery of damages, each Purchaser and the Company
will be entitled to specific performance under this Agreement.
The parties agree that monetary damages may not be adequate
compensation for any loss incurred by reason of any breach of
obligations described in the foregoing sentence and hereby
agrees to waive in any action for specific performance of any
such obligation the defense that a remedy at law would be
adequate.
