ARTICLE II
REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES
Section 2.1 REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF CIC. CIC hereby makes the
following representations and warranties to each of the Investors as of the date
hereof and on the Closing Date:
(a) ORGANIZATION AND QUALIFICATION. CIC is a corporation duly
incorporated and existing in good standing under the laws of the State of
Delaware and has the requisite corporate power to own its properties and to
carry on its business as now being conducted. CIC does not have any direct or
indirect subsidiaries other than the subsidiaries listed on Schedule 2.1(a)
attached hereto. CIC is duly qualified as a foreign corporation to do business
and is in good standing in every jurisdiction in which the nature of the
business conducted or property owned by it makes such qualification necessary
other than those in which the failure so to qualify would not have a Material
Adverse Effect. "Material Adverse Effect" means any adverse effect on the
business, operations, properties, prospects, or financial condition of the
entity with respect to which such term is used and which is material to such
entity and other entities controlling or controlled by such entity taken as a
whole, and any material adverse effect on the transactions contemplated under
this Agreement, the Registration Rights Agreement or any other agreement or
document contemplated hereby or thereby.
(b) AUTHORIZATION; ENFORCEMENT. (i) CIC has the requisite corporate power
and authority to enter into and perform this Agreement and the Registration
Rights Agreement and to issue the Preferred Shares in accordance with the terms
hereof, (ii) the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the Registration
Rights Agreement by CIC and the consummation by it of the transactions
contemplated hereby and thereby, including the issuance of the Preferred Shares,
and the resolutions contained in the Designation, have been duly authorized by
all necessary corporate action, and no further consent or authorization of CIC
or its Board of Directors or stockholders is required, (iii) this Agreement and
the Registration Rights Agreement have been duly executed and delivered by CIC,
and (iv) this Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement constitute valid
and binding obligations of CIC enforceable against CIC in accordance with their
terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy,
insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, liquidation or similar laws relating to,
or affecting generally the enforcement of creditors' rights and remedies or by
other equitable principles of general application.
(c) CAPITALIZATION. The authorized capital stock of CIC consists of
80,000,000 shares of common stock and 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock;
there are 42,095,375 shares of common stock and no shares of preferred stock
issued and outstanding. All of the outstanding shares of CIC's common stock
have been validly issued and are fully paid and nonassessable. No Common Shares
are entitled to preemptive rights; 12,917,857 Common Shares are entitled to
registration rights; and there are outstanding options for 6,111,838 Common
Shares and outstanding warrants for 3,830,000 Common Shares. There are no other
scrip, rights to subscribe to, calls or commitments of any character whatsoever
relating to, or securities or rights exchangeable or convertible into, any
shares of capital stock of CIC, or contracts, commitments, understandings, or
arrangements by which CIC is or may become bound to issue additional shares of
capital stock of CIC or options, warrants, scrip, rights to subscribe to, or
commitments
-3-
to purchase or acquire, any shares, or securities or rights convertible into
shares, of capital stock of CIC (except as contemplated by this Agreement or
disclosed in the SEC Documents (as defined below)). Attached hereto as Exhibit
2.1(c) are true and correct copies of CIC's Certificate of Incorporation (the
"Charter") and the Designation, each as in effect on the date hereof, and CIC
has furnished or made available to the Investors true and correct copies of
CIC's By-Laws, as in effect on the date hereof (the "By-Laws"). The Designation
has been duly filed in the State of Delaware.
(d) ISSUANCE OF COMMON SHARES. The Common Shares issuable upon conversion
of the Preferred Shares pursuant to the Designation (the "Underlying Shares")
are duly authorized and reserved for issuance and, upon such conversion in
accordance with the Designation, such Underlying Shares will be validly issued,
fully paid and non-assessable, free and clear of any and all liens, claims and
encumbrances, and entitled to be traded on the NASDAQ Small Capitalization
Market, and the holders of such Underlying Shares shall be entitled to all
rights and preferences accorded to a holder of Common Shares. The outstanding
Common Shares are currently listed on the NASDAQ Small Capitalization Market.
(e) NO CONFLICTS. The execution, delivery and performance of this
Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement by CIC and the consummation by
CIC of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby and the filing of the
Designation do not and will not (i) result in a violation of CIC's Charter or
By-Laws or (ii) conflict with, or constitute a default (or an event which with
notice or lapse of time or both would become a default) under, or give to others
any rights of termination, amendment, acceleration or cancellation of, any
agreement, indenture, patent, patent license or instrument to which CIC or any
of its subsidiaries is a party, or result in a violation of any federal, state,
local or foreign law, rule, regulation, order, judgment or decree (including
Federal and state securities laws and regulations) applicable to CIC or any of
its subsidiaries or by which any property or asset of CIC or any of its
subsidiaries is bound or affected (except for such conflicts, defaults,
terminations, amendments, accelerations, cancellations and violations as would
not, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect); provided
that, for purposes of such representation as to Federal, state, local or foreign
law, rule or regulation, no representation is made herein with respect to any of
the same applicable solely to the Investors and not to CIC. The business of CIC
and its direct and indirect subsidiaries is not being conducted in violation of
any law, ordinance or regulations of any governmental entity, except for
violations which either singly or in the aggregate do not and will not have a
Material Adverse Effect. CIC is not required under Federal, state or local law,
rule or regulation in the United States to obtain any consent, authorization or
order of, or make any filing or registration with, any court or governmental
agency in order for it to execute, deliver or perform any of its obligations
under this Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement and the Designation
or issue and sell the Preferred Shares in accordance with the terms hereof and
issue the Underlying Shares upon conversion thereof, except for the registration
provisions provided in the Registration Rights Agreement, provided that, for
purposes of the representation made in this sentence, CIC is assuming and
relying upon the accuracy of the relevant representations and agreements of the
Investors herein.
(f) SEC DOCUMENTS; FINANCIAL STATEMENTS. The Common Stock of CIC is
registered pursuant to Section 12(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended (the "Exchange Act") and CIC has filed all reports, schedules, forms,
statements and other documents required to be filed by it with the Securities
and Exchange Commission ("SEC")
-4-
pursuant to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, including material
filed pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d), in addition to one or more
registration statements and amendments thereto heretofore filed by CIC with the
SEC (all of the foregoing including filings incorporated by reference therein
being referred to herein as the "SEC Documents"). CIC has delivered or made
available to the Investors true and complete copies of all SEC Documents
(including, without limitation, proxy information and solicitation materials and
registration statements) filed with the SEC since December 31, 1995 and all
annual SEC Documents filed with the SEC since December 31, 1994. CIC has not
provided to the Investor any information which, according to applicable law,
rule or regulation, should have been disclosed publicly by CIC but which has not
been so disclosed. As of their respective dates, the SEC Documents complied in
all material respects with the requirements of the Exchange Act and the rules
and regulations of the SEC promulgated thereunder and other federal, state and
local laws, rules and regulations applicable to such SEC Documents, and none of
the SEC Documents contained any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted
to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to
make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were
made, not misleading. The SEC Documents contain all material information
concerning CIC, and no event or circumstance has occurred which would require
CIC to disclose such event or circumstance in order to make the statements in
the SEC Documents not misleading on the date hereof or on the Closing Date but
which has not been so disclosed. The financial statements of CIC included in
the SEC Documents comply as to form in all material respects with applicable
accounting requirements and the published rules and regulations of the SEC or
other applicable rules and regulations with respect thereto. Such financial
statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles applied on a consistent basis during the periods involved (except (i)
as may be otherwise indicated in such financial statements or the notes thereto
or (ii) in the case of unaudited interim statements, to the extent they may not
include footnotes or may be condensed or summary statements) and fairly present
in all material respects the financial position of CIC as of the dates thereof
and the results of operations and cash flows for the periods then ended
(subject, in the case of unaudited statements, to normal year-end audit
adjustments).
(g) PRINCIPAL EXCHANGE/MARKET. The principal market on which the Common
Shares are currently traded is the NASDAQ Small Capitalization Market.
(h) NO MATERIAL ADVERSE CHANGE. Since September 30, 1996, the date
through which the most recent quarterly report of CIC on Form 10-Q has been
prepared and filed with the SEC, a copy of which is included in the SEC
Documents, no Material Adverse Effect has occurred or exists with respect to CIC
or its subsidiaries, except as otherwise disclosed or reflected in other SEC
Documents prepared through or as of a date subsequent to September 30, 1996 and
except that since September 30, 1996 there has been a continuation of the losses
reflected therein in an amount not exceeding $1,500,000 and if additional equity
is not received or if revenues generated from sales do not increase, this would,
among other things, affect CIC's ability to maintain its listing on the NASDAQ
Small Capitalization Market.
(i) NO UNDISCLOSED LIABILITIES. CIC and its direct and indirect
subsidiaries have no liabilities or obligations not disclosed in the SEC
Documents, other than those liabilities incurred in the ordinary course of CIC's
or its subsidiaries' respective businesses since September 30, 1996, which
liabilities, individually or in the aggregate, do not or would not have a
Material Adverse Effect on CIC or its direct or indirect subsidiaries.
-5-
(j) NO UNDISCLOSED EVENTS OR CIRCUMSTANCES. No event or circumstance has
occurred or exists with respect to CIC or its direct or indirect subsidiaries or
their respective businesses, properties, prospects, operations or financial
condition, which, under applicable law, rule or regulation, requires public
disclosure or announcement by CIC but which has not been so publicly announced
or disclosed.
(k) NO GENERAL SOLICITATION. Neither CIC, nor any of its affiliates, or,
to its knowledge, any person acting on its or their behalf (including Libra
Investments, Inc. ("Placement Agent")), has engaged in any form of general
solicitation or general advertising (within the meaning of Regulation D under
the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act")) in connection with the offer
or sale of the Preferred Shares or Common Shares.
(l) NO INTEGRATED OFFERING. Neither CIC, nor any of its affiliates, nor to
its knowledge any person acting on its or their 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 require registration of the
Preferred Shares under the Act.
(m) FORM S-3. CIC is eligible to file the Registration Statement (as
defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) on Form S-3 under the Act and
rules promulgated thereunder, and Form S-3 is permitted to be used for the
transactions contemplated hereby under the Act and rules promulgated thereunder.
(n) INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY. CIC (and/or its wholly-owned subsidiaries)
owns or has licenses to use certain patents, copyrights and trademarks
("intellectual property") associated with its business. To its knowledge CIC
and its subsidiaries have all intellectual property rights which are needed to
conduct the business of CIC and its subsidiaries as it is now being conducted or
as proposed to be conducted as disclosed in the SEC Documents. CIC and its
subsidiaries have no reason to believe that the intellectual property rights
which it owns are invalid or unenforceable or that the use of such intellectual
property by CIC or its subsidiaries infringes upon or conflicts with any right
of any third party, and neither CIC nor any of its subsidiaries has received
notice of any such infringement or conflict. CIC and its subsidiaries have no
knowledge of any infringement of its intellectual property by any third party.
(o) STANDOFF COMMITMENTS. CIC has received binding assurances from Xxxxx
Xxx, Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxx and CIC Standby Ventures, L.P., and CIC shall use its best
efforts to promptly cause all of the other executive officers and directors of
CIC to agree, that none of them will sell any Common Shares until the
Restrictive Covenant Termination Date (as defined below), except that with the
approval of the Chairman of the Board of CIC, such executive officers and
directors may sell individually up to ten percent (10%) of their present
holdings of Common Shares (including Common Shares to be received in the future
upon the exercise of any presently held options, warrants, stock appreciation
rights or the like), and may sell amounts in excess of 10% with the approval of
a majority in interest of the holders of the outstanding Preferred Shares. CIC
represents and warrants that such amount of present holdings of Common Shares is
as set forth on Schedule 2.1(o) attached hereto.
(p) NO LITIGATION. No litigation or claim (including those for unpaid
taxes) against CIC or any of its subsidiaries is pending or, to CIC's knowledge,
threatened, and no
-6-
other event has occurred, which if determined adversely would have a Material
Adverse Effect on CIC or would materially adversely affect the transactions
contemplated hereby.
(q) BROKERS. CIC has taken no action which would give rise to any claim
by any person for brokerage commissions, finder's fees or similar payments by
any Investor relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby,
except for amounts owing to the Placement Agent, which amounts shall be paid by
CIC.
Section 2.2 REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE INVESTORS. Each of
the Investors, severally and not jointly, hereby makes the following
representations and warranties to CIC as of the date hereof and on the Closing
Date:
(a) AUTHORIZATION; ENFORCEMENT. (i) Such Investor has the requisite power
and authority to enter into and perform this Agreement and the Registration
Rights Agreement and to purchase the Preferred Shares being sold hereunder, (ii)
the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the Registration Rights
Agreement by such Investor and the consummation by it of the transactions
contemplated hereby and thereby have been duly authorized by all necessary
corporate or partnership action, and (iii) this Agreement and the Registration
Rights Agreement constitute valid and binding obligations of such Investor
enforceable against such Investor in accordance with their terms, except as such
enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization, moratorium, liquidation or similar laws relating to, or
affecting generally the enforcement of creditors' rights and remedies or by
other equitable principles of general application.
(b) NO CONFLICTS. The execution, delivery and performance of this
Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement and the consummation by such
Investor of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby do not and will not
(i) result in a violation of such Investor's organizational documents, or (ii)
conflict with any agreement, indenture or instrument to which such Investor is a
party, or (iii) result in a violation of any law, rule, or regulation, or any
order, judgment or decree of any court or governmental agency applicable to such
Investor. Such Investor is not required to obtain any consent or authorization
of any governmental agency in order for it to perform its obligations under this
Agreement or the Registration Rights Agreement.
(c) INVESTMENT REPRESENTATION. Such Investor is purchasing the Preferred
Shares for its own account and not with a view to distribution in violation of
any securities laws. Such Investor has no present intention to sell the
Preferred Shares and such Investor has no present arrangement (whether or not
legally binding) to sell the Preferred Shares to or through any person or
entity; provided, however, that by making the representations herein, such
Investor does not agree to hold the Preferred Shares for any minimum or other
specific term and reserves the right to dispose of the Preferred Shares at any
time in accordance with Federal and state securities laws applicable to such
disposition.
(d) ACCREDITED INVESTOR. Such Investor is an "accredited investor" as
defined in Rule 501 promulgated under the Act. The Investor has such knowledge
and experience in financial and business matters in general and investments in
particular, so that such Investor is able to evaluate the merits and risks of an
investment in the Preferred Shares and to protect its own interests in
connection with such investment. In addition (but without limiting the effect
-7-
of CIC's representations and warranties contained herein), such Investor has
received such information as it considers necessary or appropriate for deciding
whether to purchase the Preferred Shares pursuant hereto. Such Investor
acknowledges that no representation or warranty is made by the Placement Agent
or any persons representing the Placement Agent with respect to CIC or the sale
of the Preferred Shares.
(e) RULE 144. Such Investor understands that there is no public trading
market for the Preferred Shares, that none is expected to develop, and that the
Preferred Shares must be held indefinitely unless such Preferred Shares are
converted or registered under the Act or an exemption from registration is
available. Such Investor has been advised or is aware of the provisions of Rule
144 promulgated under the Act.
(f) BROKERS. Such Investor has taken no action which would give rise to
any claim by any person for brokerage commissions, finder's fees or similar
payments by CIC relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated
hereby, except for amounts owing to the Placement Agent, which amounts shall be
paid by CIC.
(g) RELIANCE BY CIC. Such Investor understands that the Preferred Shares
are being offered and sold in reliance on a transactional exemption from the
registration requirements of Federal and state securities laws and that CIC is
relying upon the truth and accuracy of the representations, warranties,
agreements, acknowledgments and understandings of such Investor set forth herein
in order to determine the applicability of such exemptions and the suitability
of such Investor to acquire the Preferred Shares.
ARTICLE III
COVENANTS
Section 3.1 REGISTRATION AND LISTING. Until such time as no Preferred
Shares are outstanding or, if earlier, until the Forced Conversion Date (as
defined in the Designation), CIC will cause the Common Shares to continue to be
registered under Sections 12(b) or 12(g) of the Exchange Act, will comply in all
respects with its reporting and filing obligations under the Exchange Act, and
will not take any action or file any document (whether or not permitted by the
Exchange Act or the rules thereunder) to terminate or suspend such reporting and
filing obligations. Until such time as no Preferred Shares are outstanding or,
if earlier, until the Forced Conversion Date, CIC shall, to the extent permitted
by the rules of NASDAQ, continue the listing or trading of the Common Shares on
the NASDAQ Small Capitalization Market or National Market and comply in all
respects with CIC's reporting, filing and other obligations under the bylaws or
rules of the NASD and NASDAQ and any exchange or market where the Common Shares
are then traded. CIC shall cause the Underlying Shares to be listed on the
NASDAQ Small Capitalization Market or National Market or such other market on
which the Common Shares are then trading if traded on the New York Stock
Exchange or American Stock Exchange, prior to the Conversion Commencement Date.
As used herein and in the Registration Rights Agreement and the Designation, the
term "Effective Registration" shall mean that all registration obligations of
CIC pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement have been satisfied, such
registration is not subject to any suspension or stop order, the prospectus for
the Common Shares issuable upon conversion of the Preferred Shares is current
and such Common
-8-
Shares are listed for trading on the NASDAQ Small Capitalization or National
Market, or such other market on which the Common Shares are then trading if
traded on the New York Stock Exchange or American Stock Exchange, and such
trading has not been suspended for any reason, and none of CIC or any direct or
indirect subsidiary of CIC is subject to any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar
proceeding.
Section 3.2 CERTIFICATES ON CONVERSION. Upon any conversion by an
Investor (or then holder of Preferred Shares) of the Preferred Shares pursuant
to the Designation, CIC shall issue and deliver to such Investor (or holder)
within three (3) days of the Conversion Date (as defined in the Designation) a
new certificate or certificates for the number of Preferred Shares which such
Investor (or holder) has not yet elected to convert but which are evidenced in
part by the certificate(s) submitted to CIC in connection with such conversion
(with the number of and denomination of such new certificate(s) designated by
such Investor or holder).
Section 3.3 REPLACEMENT CERTIFICATES. The certificate(s) representing
the Preferred Shares held by any Investor (or then holder) may be exchanged by
such Investor (or such holder) at any time and from time to time for
certificates with different denominations representing an equal aggregate number
of Preferred Shares, as reasonably requested by such Investor (or such holder)
upon surrendering the same. No service charge will be made for such
registration or transfer or exchange.
Section 3.4 EXPENSES. CIC shall pay, at the Closing and promptly upon
receipt of any further invoices relating to same, all reasonable due diligence
fees and expenses and reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses of Kleinberg,

Investors in connection with the preparation, negotiation, execution and
delivery of this Agreement, the Registration Rights Agreement, the Designation
and the related agreements and documents and the transactions contemplated
hereunder and thereunder. At Closing CIC shall pay the amount due for such fees
and expenses (which may include fees and expenses estimated to be incurred for
completion of the transaction including post-closing matters). In the event
such amount is ultimately less than the actual fees and expenses, CIC shall
promptly pay such deficiency upon receipt of an invoice regarding same. CIC
shall pay all fees and/or commissions payable to the Placement Agent in
connection with the transactions contemplated hereby and the agreements and
documents related hereto. The Placement Agent's compensation shall be (i) a
cash payment of 6% of the aggregate gross proceeds received by CIC from the sale
of the Preferred Shares hereunder and (ii) the issuance to the Placement Agent
by CIC of warrants to purchase 30,000 shares of CIC's Common Stock for each
$1,000,000 of aggregate gross proceeds received by CIC from the sale of the
Preferred Shares hereunder (with an exercise price equal to the lesser of $2.50
per share or the closing price of CIC's Common Stock as reported on the NASDAQ
Small Capitalization Market on the Closing Date).
Section 3.5 SECURITIES COMPLIANCE. CIC shall notify the SEC and NASD, in
accordance with their requirements, of the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement, the Designation and the Registration Rights Agreement, and shall take
all other necessary action and proceedings as may be required and permitted by

have been so performed, and provided further that the Maximum Restrictive
Covenant Termination Date shall be deferred one day for each day that there is
no Effective Registration after the date which is six (6) months following the

(a) OTHER OFFERING. Notwithstanding anything contained herein, in
the event that CIC issues or sells, or proposes to issue or sell, any Common
Shares or any of its securities which are directly or indirectly convertible
into or exchangeable for Common Shares, or any warrants or other rights to
subscribe for or to purchase or any options for the purchase of Common Shares
(other than shares or options issued or which may be issued pursuant to CIC's
employee or director option plans or shares issued upon exercise of options,
warrants or rights outstanding on the Closing Date listed in the SEC Documents),
then such Common Shares so issued or sold and such Common Shares so issuable
upon conversion or exchange of other securities shall be subject to a "lock-up"
provision in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Investors pursuant
to which such Common Shares may not be sold by any holder thereof until the date
("Lock-Up Date") which is three (3) months following the Conversion Commencement
Date (as defined in the Designation), provided that the Lock-Up Date shall be
deferred by 1.5 days for each day that there is no Effective Registration or
there is not a sufficient amount of Common Shares available for conversion of
all outstanding Preferred Shares at any time on and after the Conversion
Commencement Date, and provided further that such Common Shares may be sold in a
private transaction so long as each successive transferee of such Common Shares
is subject to such lock-up provision.
(b) RIGHT OF FIRST OFFER. Until the Restrictive Covenant Termination
Date, CIC shall not (i) offer, sell, contract to sell or otherwise issue or
deliver or dispose of any debt or any Common Shares or other equity securities
or any securities which are convertible into or exchangeable for its Common
Shares or other equity securities or any convertible security, or any warrants
or other rights to subscribe for or to purchase or any options for the purchase
of Common Shares or other equity securities (other than in a bona-fide
underwritten primary public offering and other than shares or options issued or
which may be issued pursuant to CIC's employee or director option plans or
shares issued upon exercise of options, warrants or rights outstanding on the
Closing Date listed in the SEC Documents), or (ii) obtain any financing from any
third party (excluding trade payables incurred in the ordinary course of
business consistent with past practices), unless such offer, sale, issuance or
financing ("Financing Transaction") is first offered to the Investors. CIC
shall make such offer by providing each Investor with written notice of CIC's
intention to enter into the Financing Transaction together with a term sheet
containing the economic terms and significant provisions of the Financing
Transaction and any other information reasonably requested by the Investors (the
"Offer"). Such Offer shall be given with respect to each Financing Transaction
contemplated by CIC. The Investors shall have ten (10) business days from
receipt of the Offer to deliver a written notice to CIC that the Investors wish
to accept the Offer (subject to satisfactory due diligence and reasonably
acceptable definitive documentation) for the Financing Transaction. If the
Investors reject the Offer or fail to respond within such ten (10) business day
period, then CIC shall be permitted to complete such Financing Transaction
without the Investors on terms and conditions substantially the same as those
contained in the Offer. If any
-11-
Financing Transaction is contemplated on terms and conditions not substantially
the same as those contained in the Offer or with proposed definitive
documentation not substantially the same as that proposed by CIC with respect
the Offer, then such Financing Transaction shall be deemed a new Financing
Transaction and the Investors shall again be entitled to receive an Offer for
such Financing Transaction on such new terms and conditions (and/or with such
new definitive documentation if applicable). If the Investors accept the Offer
but fail to close the Financing Transaction within twenty (20) business days of
acceptance of the Offer for any reason other than any breach by CIC of its
obligations hereunder, any delay by CIC or reasonable delay in connection with
execution of definitive documentation, failure of the parties to reasonably
agree on definitive documentation or reasonable dissatisfaction by the Investors
with their due diligence examination, the Offer to the Investors shall terminate
and the Investors shall not be entitled to receive any Offer in any future
Financing Transaction, this being in addition to any other rights or remedies
CIC may have against the Investors for their failure to close such Financing
Transaction. As among the Investors, each Investor shall have the right to
participate in the Offer to the full extent of the Offer, provided that if such
Offer is oversubscribed by the Investors, each Investor shall only be entitled
to participate in the Offer up to its pro rata share.
Section 3.12 RESERVATION OF STOCK ISSUABLE UPON CONVERSION. CIC shall at
all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued Common
Shares, solely for the purpose of effecting the conversion of the Preferred
Shares, such number of its Common Shares as shall from time to time be
sufficient to effect the conversion of all outstanding Preferred Shares, and if
at any time the number of authorized but unissued Common Shares shall not be
sufficient to effect the conversion of all the then outstanding Preferred
Shares, CIC will take such corporate action as may, in the opinion of its
counsel, be necessary to increase its authorized but unissued Common Shares to
such number of shares as shall be sufficient for such purpose, including without
limitation engaging in best efforts to obtain the requisite shareholder
approval. Without in any way limiting the foregoing, CIC agrees to reserve and
at all times keep available solely for purposes of conversion of Preferred
Shares such number of authorized but unissued Common Shares that is the greater
of (A) 20,000,000 or (B) 1.5 times the number as shall from time to time be
sufficient to effect conversion of all outstanding Preferred Shares at the
Conversion Price as provided in Section 4(b) of the Designation, which
20,000,000 figure may be reduced by the number of Common Shares actually
delivered pursuant to conversion of Preferred Shares under the Designation and
shall be appropriately and equitably adjusted for any stock split, reverse
split, stock dividend or reclassification of the Common Stock. If at any time
the number of authorized but unissued Common Shares is not sufficient to effect
the conversion of all the then outstanding Preferred Shares, the Investors shall
be entitled to the redemption rights provided in the Registration Rights
Agreement.
Section 3.13 BOARD POSITIONS. So long as any Preferred Shares are
outstanding, if the Registration Statement (as defined in the Registration
Rights Agreement) is not declared effective within 180 days of the Closing Date,
CIC shall use its best efforts to nominate and cause the election of a person
designated by the holders of a majority of the Preferred Stock then outstanding
to serve on the Board of Directors of CIC until the Restrictive Covenant
Termination Date. CIC represents, warrants and covenants that it has the
authority and ability to, and shall, increase the size of the Board of Directors
of CIC if necessary to comply with the provisions of this paragraph.
-12-
Section 3.14 INVESTOR COMMON STOCK SALES. Each Investor covenants and
agrees that if such Investor gives a Conversion Notice (as defined in the
Designation) pursuant to Section 4(b)(i)(y) under the Designation, then such
Investor, during the three (3) trading days prior to such Conversion Notice,
shall not have sold long any shares of Common Stock which were not acquired by
any conversion of any Preferred Shares.

THESE SECURITIES HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES
ACT OF 1933 OR ANY STATE SECURITIES LAWS. THEY MAY NOT BE SOLD OR
OFFERED FOR SALE EXCEPT PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION
STATEMENT UNDER SAID ACT AND ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAW OR AN

Section 7.2 SPECIFIC ENFORCEMENT; CONSENT TO JURISDICTION.
(a) CIC and the Investors acknowledge and agree that irreparable damage
would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not
performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached.

injunctions to prevent or cure breaches of the provisions of this Agreement and
to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof, this being in addition
to any other remedy to which any of them may be entitled by law or equity.
(b) CIC and each of the Investors (i) hereby irrevocably submits to the

proceeding is improper. CIC and each of the Investors consents to process being
served in any such suit, action or proceeding by mailing a copy thereof to such
party at the address in effect for notices to it under this Agreement and agrees
that such service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and

representation, warranty, covenant or undertaking with respect to such matters.

to time in whole or in part by the affirmative vote of a seventy-five percent
(75%) majority-in-interest of the holders of Preferred Shares, provided,
