RECITALS
WHEREAS, the Company and the Stockholders entered into that certain Exercise Agreement dated as of January 26, 2007 (the “Agreement”). Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Agreement;
WHEREAS, the Company and the Stockholders desire to amend the Agreement in order to eliminate the Stockholder put rights contained in Article IV thereof; and
WHEREAS, in exchange for the elimination of the put rights, the Company agrees that, on the closing date of the mergers of SunFuels, Inc. and Blue Sun Biodiesel LLC into Ocean Merger Sub, Inc., (the “Closing Date”), the Company will use all of its remaining cash after paying all accrued liabilities of the Company as of the Closing Date to pay to the Stockholders all accrued but unpaid dividends on their shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock and Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, including any such dividends that have been waived.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual agreements and covenants contained herein and other good and valuable consideration, the parties hereto agree as follows:
1. Amendment to Article IV. Article IV of the Agreement is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following.
“ARTICLE IV
PAYMENT OF ACCRUED DIVIDENDS ON SERIES B SHARES; MANDATORY REDEMPTION OF SERIES A SHARES
Section 4.1 Payment of Dividends on Series B Shares. On the closing date under the Merger Agreement, (the “Closing Date”) the Company will use its remaining cash and cash equivalents after paying all accrued liabilities of the Company as of the Closing Date (the “Remaining Cash”) to pay to the Stockholders the accrued but unpaid dividends on their shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock as of the Closing Date (“Accrued Dividends”). Dividends shall be paid to the Stockholders pro rata based on the number of shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock owned by each of them. For purposes of this Agreement, the Remaining Cash does not include any cash that is paid to the Company by SunFuels, Inc. pursuant to Section 13.1 of the Merger Agreement, as amended by the Second Amendment thereto (the “Reimbursed Cash”). For the avoidance of doubt, the Reimbursed Cash shall be retained by the Company and not paid to the Stockholders.
Section 4.2 Mandatory Redemption of Series A Shares. If the Company has any Remaining Cash after making the dividend payment required by Section 4.1 (such additional cash, “Excess Cash”), then the Company shall use such Excess Cash to redeem shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock of the Company from the Stockholders. The redemption price per share of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock shall be $3.92 per share (the “Redemption Price”). Shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock shall be redeemed from the Stockholders pro rata based on the number of shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock owned by each of them.
Section 4.3 Adjustment Upon Changes in Capitalization. In the event of any change in the Common Stock, by reason of any stock dividends, splits, mergers, recapitalizations or other changes in the corporate or capital structure of the Company, the number and kind of Shares subject to this Article IV and the Redemption Price shall be appropriately adjusted.
Section 4.4 Waiver of Accrued Dividends. If the Accrued Dividends exceed the Remaining Cash on the Closing Date (such excess, “Excess Dividends”), then the Stockholders hereby permanently waive and release the Company from any liability for such Excess Dividends, effective as of the closing of the mergers under the Merger Agreement.”
