or any Charitable Trust; and no consent, approval or authorization of
any governmental body is required for the performance by Glenmede or
any Charitable Trust of this Agreement;
(iv) Upon delivery of the certificates for the Shares to be sold
by each Charitable Trust pursuant to this Agreement, together with the
executed stock powers attached thereto, and payment therefor by the
Underwriters pursuant to this Agreement, the Underwriters will acquire
such Shares free and clear of any adverse claim (as defined in Article
8 of the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect in the Commonwealth of
Pennsylvania, assuming that the Underwriters acquire the Shares in
good faith and without notice of any such adverse claim; and
(v) Glenmede is a trust company (without banking powers) duly
organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the
Commonwealth of Pennsylvania; Glenmede is duly qualified to
Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx & Co.
Incorporated -17- April __, 1996
transact business and is in good standing as a foreign corporation in
each jurisdiction in which the conduct of its business or its
ownership or leasing of property requires such qualification, except
to the extent that the failure to be so qualified or be in good
standing would not have a material adverse effect on Glenmede and its
subsidiaries, taken as a whole.
In rendering such opinion, such counsel may rely as to matters of
fact upon certificates of officers of the Company and its subsidiaries
and public officials and include such limitations and assumptions as
are customarily contained in opinions given by counsel for issuers in
securities transactions.
With respect to certain matters relating to the laws of the State of
New York, counsel for Glenmede, the Trustee and the Charitable Trusts may rely
on the opinion of counsel for the Underwriters.
(g) You shall have received on the Closing Date an opinion of Xxxxx
Xxxx & Xxxxxxxx, counsel for the Underwriters, dated the Closing Date, as
to certain matters.
With respect to certain matters relating to the laws of the
Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, Xxxxx Xxxx & Xxxxxxxx may rely on the opinions of
counsel for the Company and counsel for Glenmede, the Trustee and the Charitable
Trusts.
(h) You shall have received on the date hereof and the Closing Date a
letter dated the date hereof or the Closing Date, as the case may be, in
each case in form and substance satisfactory to you, from independent
public accountants, containing statements and information of the type
ordinarily included in accountants' "comfort letters" to underwriters with
respect to the financial statements and certain financial information
contained in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus; provided that
the letter delivered on the Closing Date shall use a "cut-off date" not
earlier than the date hereof.

(b) Before amending or supplementing the Registration Statement or
the Prospectus, to furnish you a copy of each such proposed amendment or

(c) If, during such period after the first date of the public
offering of the Shares as in the opinion of counsel for the Underwriters
the Prospectus is required by law to be delivered in connection with sales
by an Underwriter or dealer, any event shall occur or condition exist as a
result of which it is necessary to amend or supplement the Prospectus in
order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances
when the Prospectus is delivered to a purchaser, not misleading, or if, in
the opinion of counsel for the Underwriters, it is necessary to amend or
supplement the Prospectus to comply with applicable law or any agreement
between the Company and the Trustee, Glenmede or the Charitable Trusts,
forthwith to prepare, file with the Commission (but only to the extent
required by the Commission's rules and regulations) and furnish, at its own
expense, to the Underwriters and to the dealers (whose names and addresses
you will furnish to the Company) to which Shares may have been sold by you
on behalf of the Underwriters and to any other dealers upon request, either
amendments or supplements to the Prospectus so that the statements in the
Prospectus as so amended or supplemented will not, in the light of the
circumstances when the Prospectus is delivered to a purchaser, be
misleading or so that the Prospectus, as amended or supplemented will
comply with applicable law;

Incorporated -20- April __, 1996
(d) To endeavor to qualify the Shares for offer and sale under the
securities or Blue Sky laws of such jurisdictions as you shall reasonably

Paragraph shall require the Company to qualify as a foreign corporation in
any jurisdiction where the operations and business of the Company would not
otherwise require such qualification; and
(e) To make generally available to the Company's security holders as
soon as practicable an earnings statement covering the twelve-month period
ending December 31, 1996, that satisfies the provisions of Section 11(a) of
the Securities Act and the Rules and Regulations (including, at the option
of the Company, Rule 158).
XI.
The Company and the Trustee, severally and not jointly, agree to pay
or cause to be paid, in such proportion as they shall have agreed in the
Registration Rights Agreement dated February 1, 1996, between the Company and
The Glenmede Trust Company in its corporate capacity and as trustee or co-
trustee of the Charitable Trusts, all taxes, if any, on the transfer and sale of

incident to the performance of the obligations of the Company and the Charitable
Trusts under this Agreement, including, but not limited to, all expenses
incident to the delivery of the Shares, the fees and expenses of counsel and
accountants for the Trustee, the Charitable Trusts and the Company, the costs

exchange and the cost of furnishing to the Underwriters the required copies of
the Registration Statement and Prospectus and any amendments or supplements
thereto.
XII.
The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Underwriter,
Glenmede and each Charitable Trust and each person, if any, who
Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx & Co.
Incorporated -21- April __, 1996
controls any Underwriter, Glenmede or such Charitable Trust within the meaning
of either Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act
from and against any and all losses, claims, damages and liabilities (including
without limitation, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in
connection with defending or investigating any such claim) caused by any untrue
statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the
Registration Statement or any amendment thereof, or the Prospectus (as amended
or supplemented if the Company shall have furnished any amendments or
supplements thereto) or any preliminary prospectus, or caused by any omission or
alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein
or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, except (i) with
respect to the Charitable Trusts or Glenmede insofar as such losses, claims,
damages or liabilities are caused by any such untrue statement or omission or
alleged untrue statement or omission based upon information relating to the
Charitable Trusts or Glenmede furnished to the Company in writing by or on
behalf of any Charitable Trust or Glenmede expressly for use in the Registration
Statement or any amendment thereof, the Prospectus (as amended or supplemented
if the Company shall have furnished any amendments or supplements thereto), or
any preliminary prospectus; and (ii) with respect to the Underwriters insofar as
such losses, claims, damages or liabilities are caused by any such untrue
statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission based upon
information relating to the Underwriters furnished to the Company in writing by
or on behalf of any Underwriter expressly for use in the Registration Statement
or any amendment thereof, the Prospectus (as amended or supplemented if the
Company shall have furnished any amendments or supplements thereto), or any
preliminary prospectus.
Glenmede, in its individual capacity, agrees to indemnify and hold
harmless each Underwriter and each person, if any, who controls any Underwriter
within the meaning of either Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of
the Exchange Act and the Company, its directors, its officers who sign the
Registration Statement and each person, if any, who controls the Company within
the meaning of either such Section, from and against any and all losses, claims,
damages and liabilities (including, without limitation, any legal or other
expenses reasonably incurred in connection with defending or investigating any
such claim) caused by any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a
material fact contained in the Registration Statement or any amendment thereof,
or the Prospectus (as amended or supplemented if the Company shall have
furnished any amendments or supplements thereto) or any preliminary prospectus,
or caused by any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact
required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not
misleading, but only with reference to information relating to
Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx & Co.
Incorporated -22- April __, 1996
the Sellers furnished in writing by or on behalf of the Sellers expressly for
use in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus, any preliminary prospectus or
any amendment or supplement thereto. The statements set forth under the caption
"Selling Shareholders" in the Registration Statement or any amendments or
supplements thereto or in any preliminary prospectus or any amendments or
supplements thereto constitute the only written information furnished by or on
behalf of any of the Charitable Trusts, the Trustee or Glenmede referred to in
Articles IV(b) and XII.
Each Underwriter agrees, severally and not jointly, to indemnify and
hold harmless Glenmede, the Charitable Trusts, the Company, the directors of the
Company, the officers of the Company who sign the Registration Statement and
each person, if any, who controls the Company, Glenmede or any Charitable Trust
within the meaning of either Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of
the Exchange Act from and against any and all losses, claims, damages and
liabilities (including, without limitation, any legal or other expenses,
reasonably incurred in connection with defending or investigating any such
claim) caused by any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material
fact contained in the Registration Statement or any amendment thereof or the
Prospectus (as amended or supplemented if the Company shall have furnished any
amendments or supplements thereto) or any preliminary prospectus, or caused by
any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be
stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, but
only with reference to information relating to such Underwriter furnished to the
Company in writing by such Underwriter through you expressly for use in the
Registration Statement, the Prospectus, any preliminary prospectus or any
amendment or supplement thereto.
In case any proceeding (including any governmental investigation)
shall be instituted involving any person in respect of which indemnity may be
sought pursuant to any of the three preceding paragraphs, such person
(hereinafter called the indemnified party) shall promptly notify the person
against whom such indemnity may be sought (hereinafter called the indemnifying
party) in writing and the indemnifying party, upon request of the indemnified
party, shall retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party to
represent the indemnified party and any others the indemnifying party may
designate in such proceeding and shall pay the fees and disbursements of such
counsel related to such proceeding. In any such proceeding, any indemnified
party shall have the right to retain its own counsel, but the fees and expenses
of such counsel shall be at the expense of such indemnified party unless (i) the
indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have mutually agreed to the
retention of such counsel or (ii) the named parties to any such proceeding
(including
Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx & Co.
Incorporated -23- April __, 1996
any impleaded parties) include both the indemnifying party and the indemnified
party and representation of both parties by the same counsel would be
inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between them. It
is understood that the indemnifying party shall not, in connection with any
proceeding or related proceedings in the same jurisdiction, be liable for (a)
the fees and expenses of more than one separate firm (in addition to any local
counsel) for all Underwriters and all persons, if any, who control any
Underwriter within the meaning of either Section 15 of the Securities Act or
Section 20 of the Exchange Act, (b) the fees and expenses of more than one
separate firm (in addition to any local counsel) for the Company, its directors,
its officers who sign the Registration Statement and each person, if any, who
controls the Company within the meaning of either such Section and (c) the fees
and expenses of more than one separate firm (in addition to any local counsel)
for all Charitable Trusts and Glenmede and all persons, if any, who control any
Charitable Trust or Glenmede within the meaning of either such Section, and that
all such fees and expenses shall be reimbursed as they are incurred. In the
case of any such separate firm for the Underwriters and such control persons of
Underwriters, such firm shall be designated in writing by Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx. In
the case of any such separate firm for the Company and such directors, officers
and control persons of the Company, such firm shall be designated in writing by
the Company. In the case of any such separate firm for the Charitable Trusts
and Glenmede and such controlling persons of the Charitable Trusts and Glenmede,
such firm shall be designated in writing by the Trustee, or its appointed
successor. The indemnifying party shall not be liable for any settlement of any
proceeding effected without its written consent, but if settled with such
consent or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff, the indemnifying
party agrees to indemnify the indemnified party from and against any loss or
liability by reason of such settlement or judgment. Notwithstanding the
foregoing sentence, if at any time an indemnified party shall have requested an
indemnifying party to reimburse the indemnified party for fees and expenses of
counsel as contemplated by the second and third sentences of this paragraph, the
indemnifying party agrees that it shall be liable for any settlement of any
proceeding effected without its written consent if (i) such settlement is
entered into more than 30 days after receipt by such indemnifying party of the
aforesaid request and (ii) such indemnifying party shall not have reimbursed the
indemnified party in accordance with such request prior to the date of such
settlement. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of
the indemnified party, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened
proceeding in respect of which any indemnified party is or could have been a
party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such indemnified party,
unless such settlement includes an unconditional release of such indemnified
party from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such
Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx & Co.
Incorporated -24- April __, 1996
proceeding.
If the indemnification provided for in the first, second or third paragraph
of this Article XII is unavailable to an indemnified party or insufficient in
respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to therein, then
each indemnifying party under such paragraphs, in lieu of indemnifying such
indemnified party thereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by
such indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages or
liabilities (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative
benefits received by the indemnifying party or parties on the one hand and the
indemnified party or parties on the other hand from the offering of the Shares
or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) is not permitted by applicable
law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative
benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of the
indemnifying party or parties on the one hand and of the indemnified party or
parties on the other hand in connection with the statements or omissions that
resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities, as well as any other
relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by Glenmede
on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other hand in connection with the
offering shall be deemed to be in the same respective proportions as the net
proceeds from the offering (before deducting expenses) received by the
Charitable Trusts and the total underwriting discounts and commissions received
by the Underwriters, in each case as set forth in the table on the cover of the
Prospectus, bear to the aggregate Public Offering Price of the Shares.
Notwithstanding the immediately preceding sentence, if the losses, claims,
damages or liabilities in respect of which contribution is being sought are
caused by any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or
any omission or alleged omission to state a material fact other than any such
statements or omissions based upon information (i) relating to Underwriters
furnished to the Company in writing by or on behalf of any Underwriter or (ii)
relating to Glenmede or the Charitable Trusts furnished to the Company in
writing by or on behalf of Glenmede or the Charitable Trusts, then the relative
benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Underwriters on the
other hand in connection with the offering of the Shares shall be deemed to be
in the same respective proportions as the net proceeds from the offering of the
Shares (before deducting expenses) received by the Charitable Trusts
(notwithstanding that the Company receives none of such proceeds) and the total
underwriting discounts and commissions received by the Underwriters, in each
case as set forth in the table on the cover of the Prospectus, bear to the
aggregate Public Offering Price of the Shares; and, in such case, the parties
hereto agree that for purposes of this sentence only, the Charitable Trusts and
Glenmede would be deemed to receive no benefits from the offering of the Shares.
The relative fault of Glenmede
Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx & Co.
Incorporated -25- April __, 1996
on the one hand and the Company on the one hand and the Underwriters on the
other hand shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the
untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged
omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by Glenmede or
the Charitable Trusts, the Company or the Underwriters and the parties' relative
intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent
such statement or omission.
Glenmede and the Charitable Trusts, the Company and the Underwriters
agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this
Article XII were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Underwriters
were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of
allocation that does not take account of the equitable considerations referred
to in the immediately preceding paragraph. The amount paid or payable by an
indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages and liabilities
referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph shall be deemed to include,
subject to the limitations set forth above, any legal or other expenses
reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating
or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this
Article XII, no Underwriter shall be required to contribute any amount in excess
of the amount by which the total price at which the Shares underwritten by it
and distributed to the public were offered to the public exceeds the amount of
any damages that such Underwriter has otherwise been required to pay by reason
of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No
person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section
11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person
who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The Underwriters'
obligations to contribute pursuant to this Article XII are several in proportion
to the respective number of Shares they have agreed to purchase hereunder, and
not joint. The remedies provided for in this Article XII are not exclusive and
shall not limit any rights or remedies which may otherwise be available to any
indemnified party at law or in equity.
The indemnity and contribution agreements contained in this Article
XII and the representations and warranties of the Company, Glenmede and the
Charitable Trusts contained in this Agreement shall remain operative and in full
force and effect regardless of (i) any termination of this Agreement, (ii) any
investigation made by or on behalf of any Underwriter or any person controlling
any Underwriter, Glenmede or any Charitable Trust or any person controlling
Glenmede or any Charitable Trust or the Company, its officers or directors or
any other person controlling the Company and (iii) acceptance of and payment for
any of the Shares.
Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx & Co.
Incorporated -26- April __, 1996
XIII.
This Agreement shall be subject to termination in your absolute
discretion, by notice given to the Company, if (a) after the execution and
delivery of this Agreement and prior to the Closing Date (i) trading generally
shall have been suspended or materially limited on or by, as the case may be,
any of the New York Stock Exchange, the American Stock Exchange, the
Philadelphia Stock Exchange, the National Association of Securities Dealers,
Inc., the Chicago Board Options Exchange, the Chicago Mercantile Exchange or the
Chicago Board of Trade, (ii) trading of any securities of the Company shall have
been suspended on any exchange or in any over-the-counter market, (iii) a
general moratorium on commercial banking activities in New York shall have been
declared by New York State or Federal authorities, or (iv) there shall have
occurred any outbreak or escalation of hostilities or any change in financial
markets or any calamity or crisis that, in your judgment, is material and
adverse and (b) in the case of any of the events specified in clauses (a)(i)
through (iv), such event singly or together with any other such event makes it,
in your judgment, impracticable to market the Shares on the terms and in the
manner contemplated in the Prospectus.
XIV.
This Agreement shall become effective upon the execution and delivery
hereof by the parties hereto.
If, on the Closing Date, any one or more of the Underwriters shall
fail or refuse to purchase Shares that it or they have agreed to purchase
hereunder on such date, and the aggregate number of Shares which such defaulting
Underwriter or Underwriters agreed but failed or refused to purchase is not more
than one-tenth of the aggregate number of the Shares to be purchased on such
date, the other Underwriters shall be obligated severally in the proportions
that the number of Shares set forth opposite their respective names in Schedule
II bears to the aggregate number of Shares set forth opposite the names of all
such non-defaulting Underwriters, or in such other proportions as you may
specify, to purchase the Shares which such defaulting Underwriter or
Underwriters agreed but failed or refused to purchase on such date; provided
that in no event shall the number of Shares that any Underwriter has agreed to
purchase pursuant to this Agreement be increased pursuant to this Article XIV by
an amount in excess of one-ninth of such number of Shares without
Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx & Co.
Incorporated -27- April __, 1996
the written consent of such Underwriter. If, on the Closing Date, any
Underwriter or Underwriters shall fail or refuse to purchase Shares and the
aggregate number of Shares with respect to which such default occurs is more
than one-tenth of the aggregate number of Shares to be purchased on such date,
and arrangements satisfactory to you, the Company and the Charitable Trusts for
the purchase of such Shares are not made within 36 hours after such default,
this Agreement shall terminate without liability on the part of any non-
defaulting Underwriter, the Company, Glenmede or the Charitable Trusts. In any
such case either you, the Company, Glenmede or the Charitable Trusts shall have
the right to postpone the Closing Date, but in no event for longer than seven
days, in order that required changes, if any, in the Registration Statement and
in the Prospectus or in any other documents or arrangements may be effected.
Any action taken under this paragraph shall not relieve any defaulting
Underwriter from liability in respect of any default of such Underwriter under
this Agreement.
If this Agreement shall be terminated by the Underwriters, or any of
them, because of any failure or refusal on the part of either the Company or the
Sellers to comply with the terms or to fulfill any of the conditions of this
Agreement, or if for any reason either the Company or the Sellers shall be
unable to perform their obligations under this Agreement, the Company or the
Sellers, as the case may be, will reimburse the Underwriters or such
Underwriters as have so terminated this Agreement with respect to themselves,
severally, for all out-of-pocket expenses (including the fees and disbursements
of their counsel) reasonably incurred by such Underwriters in connection with
this Agreement or the offering contemplated hereunder.
This Agreement may be signed in two or more counterparts, each of
which shall be an original, with the same effect as if the signatures thereto
and hereto were upon the same instrument.
Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx & Co.
