The Company is offering for sale, to the Purchaser and to certain
other parties (the "Other Purchasers"), and the Purchaser and the Other
Purchasers have agreed to purchase, on substantially the same price terms as
contained herein, in the aggregate, not more than (1,600,000) shares of the
Company's common stock, no par value per share (the "Common Stock"). The Company
has offered for sale, and the Purchaser has agreed to purchase _________ shares
(the "Shares") of fully registered Common Stock on the terms and conditions
herein provided. In connection herewith, the Company and the Purchaser hereby
agree as follows:
1. Purchase and Sale of Shares. Upon the basis of the representations
and warranties and subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the
Company agrees to issue and sell the Shares to the Purchaser on the Closing Date
(as herein defined) at a per share purchase price equal to $____ (the "Per Share
Purchase Price," and the aggregate purchase price of all of the Shares being
referred to herein as the "Purchase Price") and, upon the basis of
representations and warranties and subject to the terms and conditions set forth
herein, the Purchaser agrees to purchase the Shares from the Company on the
Closing Date at the Purchase Price.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the Company sells any
shares (or securities that may be converted into or exchanged for shares) of
Common Stock in an original issuance (not shares traded on the Nasdaq National
Market in the aftermarket) for less per share than the Per Share Purchase Price
at any time during the sixty day period commencing on the Closing Date (except
for shares issued pursuant to stock options), the Company shall have the
obligation to promptly notify and pay the Purchaser: (x) the aggregate
difference between (i) the Per Share Price of the Shares and (ii) the per share
price of such additional shares of the Company's Common Stock (or securities
that may be converted into or exchanged for shares of Common Stock) so sold,
multiplied by (y) the number of Shares purchased hereunder, payable, at the
Company's option, in either cash or additional shares of the Company's Common
Stock. If the Company elects to pay in Common Stock, the Common Stock shall be
valued at the price at which the Company sells any such shares (or securities
that may be converted into or exchanged for shares) of Common Stock and will be
payable within five (5) days of such other sale.
2. Closing. The closing of the purchase and sale of the Shares (the
"Offering") shall take place, on the first business day following the
satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Paragraph 6 below, as coordinated by
the parties, or on such other date or at such other time and place as the
Company and the Purchaser may agree upon (such time and date of the closing
being referred to herein as the "Closing Date"). Upon payment of the Purchase
Price in full in immediately available funds by or on behalf of the Purchaser to
the Company by wire transfer to
an account specified by the Company to the Purchaser prior to the Closing Date,
the Company will promptly cause its transfer agent to deliver to the Purchaser
certificates representing the shares of Common Stock in such denominations and
registered in such names as the Purchaser shall have requested prior to the
Closing Date. The Company shall provide facsimile copies of the certificates to
the Purchaser on the Closing Date.
