REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES
Each of the Pledgors represents and warrants that:
(a) It is a corporation duly organized and existing under the laws of
Mexico, as evidenced by the public deeds, copies of which have been delivered to
the Pledgee prior to the execution date hereof.
(b) It is the legal and beneficial owner of the Shares set forth
opposite such Pledgor's name on Exhibit "A" hereto, which Shares are (i) free
and clear of any lien, security interest or other charge or encumbrance except
for the security interest created under the Mexican Interim Stock Pledge and
this Agreement; and (ii) are fully paid-in and non-assessable and, when taken
together with all the Shares listed on Exhibit "A" hereto, represent 100% of the
capital stock of the Company. There are no options, debentures, warrants or
other rights to any Shares granted to third parties.
(c) It is a condition precedent to the Closing Date, the initial Funding
and the issuance of the Investor Notes under the Common Agreement that this
Agreement shall have been duly executed and that the provisions of this
Agreement shall constitute a valid, direct, continuing Lien on the Shares only
subject to the Lien created pursuant to the Mexican Interim Stock Pledge.
3
(d) Under the Common Agreement, the Pledgee has been appointed as
Onshore Collateral Agent to act on behalf of and for the benefit of the Secured
Parties with respect to the security interest to be created by the Pledgors,
inter alia, in the Pledged Collateral (as defined below).
(e) Considering that the collateral agent under the Mexican Interim
Stock Pledge has waived certain restrictions thereunder, the execution, delivery
and performance of this Agreement by each of the Pledgors and the security
interest created in the Pledged Collateral, do not and will not violate,
conflict with or result in a breach of or default under, its corporate by-laws,
any agreement, license, permit or other instrument to which it is a party or by
which it or its properties may be bound, or any order, rule, regulation,
injunction, decree, judgment, statute, law or ruling of any court,
administrative agency or governmental agency applicable to it or its properties.
The Pledgors do not need the consent or authorization of any person or entity to
enter into this Agreement, create the pledge and perform their respective
obligations hereunder, other than the authorization required under the Interim
Credit Agreement, which has been obtained.
(f) The execution hereof, the endorsement in guaranty of the
certificates evidencing the Shares in favor of the Pledgee, the delivery of such
certificates to the Pledgee and the notation of the pledge created hereunder in
the share registry (libro de registro de acciones) of the Company prior to the
termination of the pledge created under the Mexican Interim Stock Pledge will
constitute, perfect and establish a second priority security interest in the
Pledged Collateral in favor of the Pledgee, acting on behalf and for the benefit
of the Secured Parties, securing the Secured Obligations hereunder. Once the
pledge created under the Mexican Interim Stock Pledge has been terminated
through the cancellation of the relevant endorsement in the certificates
representing the Shares and the appropriate notation in the share registry of
the Company, the security interest created hereunder will constitute a first
priority security interest in the Pledged Collateral. No action other than those
contemplated in this Agreement is necessary or desirable to otherwise perfect or
protect such security interest.
(g) Its representative(s) executing this Agreement on its behalf, are
duly authorized to do so, as evidenced by the public deeds copies of which have
been delivered to the Pledgee prior to the execution date hereof. Such authority
has not been revoked or limited in any manner whatsoever.
