Re: Amendment of Put Option Agreement Dated June 15, 2000
Dear Xxxxxxx,
Following the meetings we had on Friday, August 9, 2001 and Tuesday, August 22,
2001, we reached an understanding regarding the Seventh and Eighth Option
Instalments pursuant to Sections 4.2.7, 4.4 and 4.5 of that certain Put Option
Agreement dated as of June 15, 2000 (the "Put Option Agreement") between the
Shareholders of InterCard (as such terms are defined in the Put Option
Agreement) and On Track Innovations Ltd. ("OTI") that will enable us to conclude
the transactions contemplated by that certain agreement date June 15, 2000
between the Shareholders and OTI regarding the purchase of 51% of the
InterCard's nominal capital (the "Purchase Agreement"), the Put Option Agreement
referred to above regarding the purchase of the remaining 49% of InterCard's
nominal capital and ancillary documentation thereto, including, but not limited
to, the Share Pledge Agreement as of June 15, 2000 (the "Share Pledge
Agreement"). All capitalized terms used but not specifically defined in this
letter shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Put Option Agreement. I
would like to set forth our agreement for conclusion of such transaction as
follows:
1. The Shareholders accept the 59,376 OTI Shares received form the Escrow
Account on August 2, 2001 as partial payment of the Seventh Option
Instalment.
2. In fulfilment of (i) the remaining balance of the Seventh Instalment
pursuant to Section 4,2.7, (ii) Section 4.4 and (iii) Section 4.5 of the
Put Option Agreement, OTI will pay to you on behalf of the Shareholders an
aggregate amount of Euro 864,465.00 (the "Final Payment").
3. The Final Payment of Euro 864,465.00 shall be paid as follows:
3.1 Euro 216,105 shall be paid in cash, no later then October 4, 2001.
3.2 Euro 648,360 shall be paid as stipulated hereunder and immediately
granted to OTI as a loan ("Loan I") (for the avoidance of doubt, no
money shall be transferred between the parties when the loan is
granted). OTI will repay Loan I over three years, in 36 monthly
instalments as set forth on Schedule A attached to this letter
commencing on November 1, 2001. Loan I shall bear interest at a rate
of 6% per annum payable in accordance with Schedule A. OTI shall have
the option, in its discretion, at any time to prepay the remaining
principal amount of Loan I.
3.3 In the event OTI fails to pay a monthly instalment within 30 days
from the receipt of a written notice regarding such failure, the
remaining principal amount of Loan I shall become due immediately
following the above period.
4. OTI shall grant a loan ("Loan II") to InterCard K in an amount of Euro
432,230 on the same terms as Loan I.
5. The Final Payment of 864,465.00 shall be the full and final payment of the
total consideration according to the Put Option Agreement, including all
payments due to you, Xx. Xxxxxx Xxxxxx Xxxxx, Xx. Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxx Xxxxx and
Civil Partnership. In addition, the Final Payment shall be deemed a full
and final fulfilment of all OTI's obligations under the Purchase Agreement,
