6. Indemnities. A.) AMLH hereby agrees to indemnify Shadmore from any and all
loss, cost or expense associated with the transfer of the Common Stock and the
Preferred Stock of AWT relative to any rights that AMLH may have under the state
and federal laws and regulations of the state and federal regulatory bodies
relating to the private sale of exempt, non-registered securities. AMLH is an
accredited investor as defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D of the Securities Act
of 1933, as amended (the "Act").
B.) Shadmore hereby avers that their acquisition of the Series E Preferred Stock
is for their own account, for investment purposes only and not for re-sale or
distribution. Shadmore acknowledges that this acquisition is not being done in
conjunction with a public offering as defined in the Act and that Shadmore, and
its Trustees, are accredited investors as defined in the Act. Therefore,
Shadmore hereby indemnifies AMLH against all loss, cost or expense associated
with the transfer to them of the Series E Preferred Stock of and by AMLH
relative to any rights that Shadmore may have under the state and federal laws
and regulations of the state and federal regulatory bodies relating to the
private sale of these securities.
C) AMLH hereby promises and agrees that it shall hold the individuals known as
Xxxxxx X. Xxxxxxxxx and Xxxxx X. Xxxxxxxx financially harmless from actions
undertaken by the Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") on account of federal
withholding tax, PUT A, FICA and the resulting penalties and interest and fines
associated with an assessment by the IRS of the liability owed by AWT for
non-payment and late payment of employer and trust fund taxes that were to be
paid over to the IRS while Livermore and Xxxxxxxx were titular but
non-operational officers of AWT. The only conditions of this indemnity are: a)
that it shall be void and of no effect as to either of them in the event that
the IRS or AWT presents incontrovertible evidence that such individual did
actively engage in the conduct that has given rise to the assessment; and b)
AMLH shall afford to Livermore and Xxxxxxxx the same protection and insulation
from personal liability that it will afford to other officers similarly
situated. The purpose of this second condition is that AMLH will propose a
payment plan to extinguish the agreed liability and it shall faithfully perform
said agreement. AMLH shall also cause AWT to inform the IRS that Livermore and
Xxxxxxxx are not responsible for the assessment. However, AMLH can not and does
not guarantee that the IRS will not take independent action against Livermore
and Xxxxxxxx despite the representations and the payments.
7. Timing and Closing. The Parties agree that the documents and securities
recited herein shall be exchanged within 15 days of the execution of this
Agreement time being of the essence.
8. Disclosures. AMLH has disclosed and by these presents re-affirms their
disclosure to Shadmore that it currently intends to seek an agreement with AWT
to purchase the entire asset array of AWT (the "Assets"). In such pursuit, AMLH
is making this Agreement, as it intends to do with most, if not all, of the
other shareholders of AWT, so as to structure the acquisition of the Assets in
such a way as to provide a fair and amicable transition of the ownership of and
the business operations of AWT in and to AMLH. Attached hereto as Exhibit G is a
spreadsheet entitled "AWT Minority Shareholders Offer Sheet" that depicts the
AMLH offer to Shadmore and other shareholders similarly situated. Also attached
hereto as Exhibit F is a full synopsis of the offer that has been accepted by
the members of ATWH to convey their entire ownership interests in ATWH to AMLH
as it is the majority common shareholder of AWT. Further, AMLH has made an
agreement with GCD Acquisition Corp. to acquire the ownership and rights of the
senior secured debt (formerly owed to Galileo International, LLC) owed by AWT.
In addition, AMLH intends to make appropriate use of the staff and management of
AWT in the ongoing operations of the AMLH Travel Division.
9. Releases. In light of the Disclosures, AMLH requires and Shadmore agrees to
look solely to AMLH for the performance of the obligations contained herein and,
as such, said obligations shall replace and supercede all obligations of AWT,
ATWH and the officers, members and directors of said entities. AWT joins in this
Agreement for the express and specific purpose of demonstrating its consent to
the transaction described as well as to agree to exchange with Shadmore and its
Trustees general, mutual and reciprocal releases upon the execution of this
Agreement.
10. Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the Exhibits attached hereto contain
all aspects of the agreements between the Parties. This Agreement supercedes all
prior written and oral communications pertaining to the transaction described
herein. Any element deemed unenforceable will not vitiate the remaining
provisions or this Agreement. This Agreement is not assignable without the
written consent of the other Party except that AMLH may assign this Agreement to
a subsidiary controlled by AMLH but no such assignment shall relieve AMLH from
the responsibilities incurred herein.
11. Working Relationship. Notwithstanding anything in Exhibit G to the contrary,
AMLH agrees that Shadmore (or by extension Messrs. Livermore and Xxxxxxxx) may
reserve the right to propose an involvement in the upper level management of
AMLH regarding matters pertaining to the AMLH Travel Division.
