ATTACHMENT B
Representations and Warranties
A. Representations and Warranties of the Trade Creditor. In connection
----------------------------------------------------
with the transfer of the Securities, the Trade Creditor represents to the
Company the following:
1. Experience. The Trade Creditor is an "accredited investor" as
----------
defined in Regulation D under the Securities Act. The Trade Creditor is also
knowledgeable, sophisticated and experienced in making, and is qualified to make
decisions with respect to investments in securities such as this one, including
investments in securities issued by the Company and investments in comparable
companies, and has the ability to bear the economic risks of the investment.
2. Investment. The Trade Creditor is acquiring the Securities for
----------
investment for such Trade Creditor's own account and not with the view to, or
for resale in connection with, any distribution thereof. The Trade Creditor
understands that the Securities have not been registered under the Securities
Act of 1933 by reason of a specific exemption from the registration provisions
of the Securities Act which depends upon, among other things, the bona fide
nature of the investment intent as expressed herein. The Trade Creditor further
represents that he, she or it does not have any contract, undertaking, agreement
or arrangement with any person to sell, transfer or grant participation to any
third person with respect to any of the Securities. The Trade Creditor
understands and acknowledges that the sale of the Securities by the Company to
the Trade Creditor will not be registered under the Securities Act on the ground
that this sale and the issuance of securities hereunder is exempt from the
registration requirements of the Securities Act.
3. Rule 144. The Trade Creditor acknowledges that the Securities
--------
must be held indefinitely unless subsequently registered under the Securities
Act or an exemption from such registration is available. The Trade Creditor is
aware of the provisions of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act which
permit limited resale of securities purchased in a private placement subject to
the satisfaction of certain conditions, including, in case the Trade Creditor
has held the securities for less than two years or is an affiliate of the
Company, among other things: the availability of certain current public
information about the Company, the resale occurring not less than one year after
a party has purchased and paid for the securities to be sold, the sale being
through a "broker's transaction" or in transactions directly with a "market
maker," and the number of shares being sold during any three-month period not
exceeding specified limitations. The Trade Creditor covenants that, in the
absence of an effective registration statement covering the securities in
question, the Trade Creditor will sell, transfer, or otherwise dispose of the
Securities only in a manner consistent with such Trade Creditor's
representations and covenants set forth herein.
4. Access to Information. The Trade Creditor has received and
---------------------
reviewed the Company's Confidential Private Placement Memorandum, dated as of
July 12, 2000, as
B-1
supplemented by the Cumulative Supplement, dated as of August 16, 2000
(including, without limitation, the section captioned "Risk Factors"), and has
had an opportunity to discuss the Company's business, management and financial
affairs with its management. The Trade Creditor understands that any such
discussions, as well as any written information issued by the Company, were
intended to describe the aspects of the Company's business and prospects which
the Company believes to be material, but were not necessarily a thorough or
exhaustive description.
B. Representations and Warranties of the Company.
---------------------------------------------
1. Organization. The Company is duly organized and validly existing
------------
in good standing under the laws of the state of Texas. The Company has full
corporate power and corporate authority to own, operate and occupy its
properties and to conduct its business as presently conducted. The Company is
registered or qualified to do business and in good standing in each jurisdiction
in which it owns or leases property or transacts business and where the failure
to be so qualified would have a material adverse effect upon the financial
condition of the Company.
2. Due Authorization; Legal, Valid and Binding Agreement. The
------------------------------------------------------
Company has all requisite legal and corporate power and authority to execute,
deliver and perform its obligations under this agreement. To the extent any
shares of common stock are being issued to the Trade Creditor, such shares shall
be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable. This agreement
has been duly authorized and validly executed and delivered by the Company and
constitutes a legal, valid and binding agreement of the Company enforceable
against the Company in accordance with its terms, except as enforceability may
be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or
similar laws affecting creditors' and contracting parties' rights generally and
except as enforceability may be subject to general principles of equity
(regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in
equity or at law).
