the Warrant or Shares:
4
(a) SEC Reports. The Company shall promptly mail copies of all
quarterly and annual reports and of the information, documents and other
reports which the Company is required to file with the Securities and
Exchange Commission (the "Commission"), exclusive of any exhibits to such
reports and exclusive of registration statements on Form S-8.
(b) Other Reports. If at any time after the date hereof the Company
is not subject to the requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act"), the Company shall
provide or cause to be provided to the holder all of the following, in
form and detail satisfactory to the holder:
(i) not later than 90 days after and as of the end of each
fiscal year, an audited financial statement of the Company, prepared
by a recognized independent accounting firm acceptable to the holder,
to include consolidated balance sheets and consolidated statements of
income, retained earnings and cash flow, in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles, together with an unqualified opinion;
(ii) not later than 45 days after and as of the end of each
calendar quarter, a financial statement of the Company, prepared by
the Company, to include consolidated balance sheets and consolidated
statements of income, retained earnings and cash flow, in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles, certified by a senior
financial officer; and
(iii) from time to time such other information as the holder may
reasonably request.
Section 5.2. Transactions with Affiliates. The Company will not, and will
not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, (i) enter into any transaction, including
without limitation, any purchase, sale, lease or exchange of property or the
rendering of any service, with any Affiliate of the Company unless such
transactions are in the ordinary course of its business and are upon fair and
reasonable terms no less favorable to it than the Company would obtain in a
comparable arm's-length transaction with a person not an Affiliate, or (ii)
issue, or agree to issue, any shares of capital stock (including rights or
warrants with respect thereto) or stock appreciation rights, stock benefit
plans, phantom stock rights or plans or any similar plans or rights or other
rights measured by earnings, profits, or revenues of the Company or its

their respective Affiliates, unless such transaction is fair to the Company and
is not materially adverse to the rights to the holder of the Warrant. If a
transaction referred to in subsection (i) or (ii) hereof is approved by a
majority of Independent Directors (for example, if the Company has four
directors - two of which are Independent Directors and two of which are not -
and a transaction is approved by a majority of the directors including both
Independent Directors, that approval constitutes a majority of Independent
Directors), such approval shall be presumptive evidence that such transaction
complies with the provisions of this Section. As used herein, an Independent
Director shall mean any director who is not an officer or employee of the
Company and who does not beneficially own more than 5% of any outstanding class
or series of capital stock of the Company and who is not related by blood or
marriage to any of the foregoing. As used herein, "Affiliate" has the meaning
set forth in Article VII of the Warrant, except that as long as any of the
5
Shareholders are stockholders of the Company, such Shareholders and each of
their respective Affiliates shall be deemed Affiliates of the Company, and
Purchaser and its direct and indirect wholly-owned subsidiaries and the Persons
that directly or indirectly own Purchaser shall not be deemed Affiliates of the
Company.
Section 5.3. Restrictions on Dividend Payments.
(a) Restriction. For so long as the Warrant is outstanding and except
as provided in 5.3(b), the Company shall not pay any dividends with
respect to its Common Stock (other than dividends payable in shares of its
Common Stock) out of its surplus or otherwise or return any capital to its
stockholders as such or authorize or make any other distribution, payment
or delivery of property or cash to its holders of Common Stock as such, or
redeem, retire, purchase or otherwise acquire, directly or indirectly, for
a consideration (otherwise than in exchange for, or from the proceeds of
the substantially concurrent sale of, other shares of capital stock of the
Company), any shares of any class of its Common Stock now or hereafter
outstanding.
(b) Permitted Dividends. The Company may pay dividends to the holders
of its Common Stock, provided that (i) contemporaneously with the
declaration of any such dividend, the Company will set aside for payment
to the holder of the Warrant an amount equal to the total Dividend Amount
(as hereinafter defined) payable to the holder of the Warrant and (ii) on
the date of payment of such dividend, will pay to the holder of the
Warrant the Dividend Amount. Such payment shall be made by Company check
to the holder of the Warrant at the address of the holder as reflected on
the Warrant holders' List. As used herein, the Dividend Amount shall equal
the dividend declared or paid (as the case may be) with respect to one
share of Common Stock multiplied times the Dilution Factor (as defined in
the Warrant) on the date of declaration or payment.
Section 5.4. Access. The Company will allow, and will cause its
subsidiaries to allow, any holder of the Warrant or proposed Permitted
Transferee (as defined in the Warrant), and their respective representatives,
upon two Business Days prior telephonic notice, to visit and inspect any of its
property, to examine its books of record and account, and to discuss its
affairs, finances and accounts with its officers, provided, (i) such person
signs a customary confidentiality agreement if requested by the Company and (ii)
the examination will not unreasonably disrupt, in any material manner, the
operations of the Company.
Section 5.5. Rule 144 Reporting. The Company agrees that from and after
the date it registers any class of its securities under Section 12(b) or 12(g)
of the Exchange Act, it shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to:
(a) Make and keep "adequate public information" available, as those
terms are understood and defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act, at
all times from and after the date hereof, and
