and the Subscribers identified on the signature pages hereto ("Subscriber" or
"Subscribers").
W I T N E S S E T H:
WHEREAS, the Company and Subscribers have entered into the Subscription
Agreements described on the signature pages hereto and in Exhibit A
("Agreements") providing for the sale by the Company to the Subscribers of Class
A Common Stock, Series A Preferred Stock convertible into Class A Common Stock
and secured and unsecured convertible debentures and notes of the Company
convertible into Class A Common Stock in the aggregate principal amounts and in
the denominations set forth on the signature pages of the Agreements and
Schedules thereto;
WHEREAS, the Company obtained new management effective January 8, 2002,
and a Form 8-K was filed on January 23, 2002, for the disclosure of this event;
WHEREAS, the Company's new management implemented a new acquisition
strategy for the Company, and this new strategy has resulted in a use of
proceeds which differs from that contemplated in certain of the Agreements;
WHEREAS, in accordance with the Company's new acquisition strategy the
Company acquired the lien of Congress Financial Corporation (Southwest)
("Congress") on the assets of Xxxxxx Aircraft Corporation ("Xxxxxx") effective
January 30, 2002, and a Form 8-K was filed on February 14, 2002, for the
disclosure of this event;
WHEREAS, the acquisition of the Congress lien required additional
funding for the Company and certain of the Subscribers provided such funding in
a transaction closing on February 27, 2002, and a Form 8-K was filed on March
14, 2002, for the disclosure of this event;
WHEREAS, the Company required additional working capital and certain of
the Subscribers provided such funding in transactions closing on February 27,
2002, and March 26, 2002, and Form 8-Ks were filed on March 14, 2002, April 10,
2002, and May 16, 2002, respectively, for the disclosure of these events;
WHEREAS, in accordance with the Company's new acquisition strategy the
Company has acquired Xxxxxx, and a Form 8-K was filed within 15 calendar days of
the date of the completion of this transaction;
WHEREAS, the Form 8-K filing for the Xxxxxx acquisition requires the
filing of pro forma financial statements within 60 calendar days of the filing
date of the Form 8-K;
WHEREAS, a registration statement will not be permitted to be declared
effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") until the pro forma
financials required for the Xxxxxx Form 8-K filing have been filed;
WHEREAS, the Company complied with the applicable registration filing
obligations under the Agreements in part by filing a Form SB-2 Registration
Statement on December 12, 2001 (which may be reviewed with other Company filings
at the Company's website and through the XXXXX system of the SEC), but was
obligated to withdraw the filing on January 24, 2002, due to the pendency of
transactions and financings described above;
WHEREAS, the Company intends to comply with its obligation to register
on a Form SB-2 Registration Statement the resale of all Class A Common Stock
currently issuable under the Agreements pursuant to the registration rights
obligations under the Agreements (the "Omnibus SB-2");
WHEREAS, the Company was delisted from Nasdaq on March 23, 2001, and is
currently trading on the Over the Counter Bulletin Board and may be in default
under certain of the Agreements due to the delisting;
WHEREAS, the Company is currently in default in the quarterly or
semi-annual payment of interest under certain of the debentures and notes as
described in the applicable Agreements;
WHEREAS, the Company is currently in default under the registration
rights obligations under certain of the debentures and notes as described in the
applicable Agreements;
WHEREAS, the SEC has changed its position regarding the transfer of an
obligation to invest under the Agreements or the assignment of securities issued
under the Agreements so that such transfers or assignments may now considered by
the SEC, under certain circumstances, to cause the entire issuance of securities
under a particular Agreement to fail to qualify for the exemption from
registration under Section 4(2) and Regulation D of the Securities Act of 1933
and the Company may therefore incur rescission liability associated with such
transactions;
WHEREAS, based upon the Company's default, the Subscribers currently
have the option of making all sums of principal and interest remaining unpaid
under the debentures and notes and all other amounts payable under the
debentures and notes immediately due and payable, all without demand,
presentment or notice, or grace period;
WHEREAS, the Company has previously disclosed under the Agreements that
it has issued 1,322,000 options under its stock option plans and has reserved
1,500,000 options for future issuances; and
WHEREAS, the Company would like to revise the structure of the options
granted and to be granted under its stock option plans.
NOW THEREFORE, the parties agree as follows to the extent each
undersigned Subscriber has an interest:
1. WAIVER OF DEFAULT. The Subscriber acknowledges that the Company is currently
in default as described above. The Subscriber hereby waives (i) its option to
make immediately due and payable all sums of principal and interest remaining
unpaid under the debentures and notes and all other amounts payable under the
debentures and notes based upon the current default, and (ii) its right, if any,
to receive interest at a default or penalty rate with regard to the Agreements
entered into in March and July of 2001. The Subscriber waives none of its other
rights or the Company's obligations to the Subscriber, including without
limitation (i) its right to receive monetary or other penalties as consequence
of a failure to file, or prosecute to effectiveness, any registration statement
by a date certain or (ii) any rights and obligations arising under any security
2
agreement, except as described in this Waiver Agreement. The Subscriber waives
its rights to receive in the form of cash, any accrued penalties as a result of
a failure to file, or prosecute to effectiveness, any registration statement by
a date certain and instead elects to receive the aforementioned accrued
penalties in the form of Class A "restricted" Common Stock of the Company. For
the period only of May 20, 2002 through August 31, 2002, the Subscriber waives
its right to accrue damages as consequence of the Company's failure to file, or
prosecute to effectiveness any registration statement by a date certain.
2. AMENDMENT TO RESERVE REGISTRATION RIGHTS OBLIGATIONS.
The Subscriber acknowledges that reservation and registration
rights requirements under certain of the Agreements which require the Company to
reserve for issuance and maintain registration of the resale of up to 200% of
the Class A Common Shares necessary for conversion of all outstanding securities
issued under the Agreements at all times is unduly burdensome to the Company. To
the extent the Subscriber has reservation and registration rights pursuant to
the Agreements, the Subscriber hereby agrees to reduce the Company's reservation
and registration requirement obligation to 150% of the Class A Common Shares
necessary for conversion at all times with the resale of such shares to be
registered by the Company in the Omnibus SB-2.
3. AMENDMENT OF INTEREST PAYMENTS ON NOTES AND DEBENTURES. To the
extent interest payments are or have been due quarterly or semi-annually, as the
case may be, under the Agreements, the Subscriber agrees that the Agreements are
hereby amended retroactively to provide for the deferral of all interest
payments until maturity or conversion of the relevant debenture or note.
4. AMENDMENT OF TRANSFER AND ASSIGNMENT RIGHTS. To the extent the
Subscriber has transfer or assignment rights under the Agreements, the
Subscriber agrees that, in light of the change in the SEC position on transfers
or assignments, that the Agreements are hereby amended to preclude future
transfers or assignments which would be contrary to then-current SEC policy.
5. AMENDMENT OF PROHIBITION OF THE COMPANY'S ISSUANCE OF EQUITIES. To
the extent the secured Agreements prohibit the Company's issuance of securities
for up to 180 days after the applicable registration statement becomes effective
or the relevant closing date, the Subscriber agrees that the Agreements are
hereby amended to eliminate this provision.
6. AMENDMENT OF DISCLOSURE RE STOCK OPTION ISSUANCES. To the extent
applicable, the Company's prior disclosure is hereby amended to provide for the
granting of options under a new stock option plan with grants not to exceed
20,000,000 options, including 1,500,000 shares previously reserved for issuance
as described above. This number does not include 1,322,000 options previously
issued as described above which will remain outstanding.
7. SELLING SHAREHOLDER INFORMATION. The Subscriber agrees to provide
selling shareholder information required for the Omnibus SB-2 filing immediately
upon the request of the Company for the provision of such information so as not
to delay the Company's filing.
9. COUNTERPARTS/EXECUTION. This Waiver Agreement may be executed in any
number of counterparts and by different signatories hereto on separate
counterparts, each of which, when so executed, shall be deemed an original, but
all such counterparts shall constitute but one and the same instrument. This
Waiver Agreement may be executed by facsimile transmission.
3
10. AGREEMENT. Each of the undersigned states that the undersigned has
read the foregoing Waiver Agreement and understands and agrees to it. The
undersigned acknowledges he understands that, in connection with the secured
convertible notes dated March 23, 2001, October 26, 2001, November 12, 2001, and
January 30, 2002, waiver by the holders of not less than 60% of the outstanding
principal amount of the secured convertible notes as of the date of this
Agreement will be sufficient to constitute a waiver on behalf of all of the
holders of such notes.
