SELECTED DEALERS AGREEMENT
, 1998
Dear Sirs:
1. Xxxxxxxxx Securities, Inc. named as the Underwriter ("Underwriter") in
the enclosed preliminary Prospectus, proposes to offer on a firm commitment
basis, subject to the terms and conditions and execution of the Underwriting
Agreement, 1,000,000 Shares of Common Stock at $ per share and 1,000,000
Redeemable Warrants at $0.10 per Warrant ("Securities") of the above Company.
The Securities are more particularly described in the enclosed preliminary
Prospectus, additional copies of which will be supplied in reasonable quantities
upon request. Copies of the definitive Prospectus will be supplied after the
effective date of the Registration Statement.
2. The Underwriter is soliciting offers to buy, upon the terms and
conditions hereof, a part of the Securities from Selected Dealers, including you
who are to act as principal and who are (i) registered with the Securities and
Exchange Commission ("Commission") as broker-dealers under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended ("1934 Act"), and members in good standing with
the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. ("NASD"), or (ii) dealers
or institutions with their principal place of business located outside the
United States, its territories and possessions who are not eligible for
membership in the NASD and who agree to make no sales within the United States,
its territories or possessions or to persons who are nationals thereof or
residents therein and, in making sales, to comply with the NASD's Interpretation
with Respect to FreeRiding and Withholding and with Sections 2730, 2740 and
2420, to the extent applicable to foreign nonmember brokers or dealers, and
Section 2750 of the NASD's Rules of Fair Practice. The Securities are to be
offered at a public price of $ per share of Common Stock and $0.10 per
Redeemable Warrant. Selected Dealers will be allowed a concession of not less
than $ per share and $.005 per Redeemable Warrant, except as provided below.
You will be notified of the precise amount of such concession prior to the
effective date of the Registration Statement. You may reallow not in excess of
$ per share and $.0025 per Redeemable Warrant to dealers who meet the
requirements set forth in this Section 2. This offer is solicited subject to the
issuance and delivery of the Securities and their acceptance by the Underwriter,
to the approval of legal matters by counsel and to the terms and conditions as
herein set forth.
3. Your offer to purchase may be revoked in whole or in part without
obligation or commitment of any kind by you and any time prior to acceptance and
no offer may be accepted by us and no sale can be made until after the
registration statement covering the Securities has become effective with the
Commission. Subject to the foregoing, upon execution by you of the Offer to
Purchase below and the return of same to us, you shall be deemed to have offered
to purchase the number of Securities set forth in your offer on the basis set
forth in paragraph 2 above. Any
2
oral notice by us of acceptance of your offer shall be immediately followed by
written or telegraphic confirmation preceded or accompanied by a copy of the
Prospectus. If a contractual commitment arises hereunder, all the terms of this
Selected Dealers Agreement shall be applicable. We may also make available to
you an allotment to purchase Securities, but such allotment shall be subject to
modification or termination upon notice from us any time prior to an exchange of
confirmations reflecting completed transactions. All references hereafter in
this Agreement to the purchase and sale of Securities assume and are applicable
only if contractual commitments to purchase are completed in accordance with the
foregoing.
4. You agree that in reoffering said Securities, if your offer is accepted
after the effective date, you will make a bona fide public distribution of same.
You will advise us upon request of Securities purchased by you remaining unsold
and we shall have the right to repurchase such Securities upon demand at the
public offering price without paying the concession with respect to any
Securities so repurchased. Any of the Securities purchased by you pursuant to
this Agreement are to be subject to the terms hereof. Securities shall not be
offered or sold by you below the public offering price before the termination of
this Agreement.
5. Payment for Securities which you purchase hereunder shall be made by you
on or before five (5) business days after the date of each confirmation by
certified or bank cashier's check payable to the Underwriter. Certificates for
the Securities shall be delivered as soon as practicable after delivery
instructions are received by the Underwriter.
6. A registration statement covering the offering has been filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission in respect to the Securities. You will be
promptly advised when the registration statement becomes effective. Each
Selected Dealer in selling Securities pursuant hereto agrees (which agreement
shall also be for the benefit of the Company) that it will comply with the
applicable requirements of the Securities Act of 1933 and of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 and any applicable rules and regulations issued under said
Acts. No person is authorized by the Company or by the Underwriter to give any
information or to make any representations other than those contained in the
Prospectus in connection with the sale of the Securities. Nothing contained
herein shall render the Selected Dealers a member of the Underwriting Group or
partners with the Underwriter or with one another.
7. You will be informed by us as to the states in which we have been advised
by counsel the Securities have been qualified for sale or are exempt under the
respective securities or blue sky laws of such states, but we have not assumed
and will not assume any obligation or responsibility as to the right of any
Selected Dealer to sell Securities in any state. You agree not to sell
Securities in any other state or jurisdiction and to not sell Securities in any
state or jurisdiction unless you are qualified or licensed to sell securities in
such state or jurisdiction.
8. The Underwriter shall have full authority to take such action as it may
deem advisable in respect of all matters pertaining to the offering or arising
thereunder. The Underwriter shall not be under any liability to you, except such
as may be incurred under the Securities Act of 1933 and the rules and
regulations thereunder, except for lack of good faith and except for obligations
assumed by us in this Agreement, and no obligation on our part shall be implied
or inferred herefrom.
9. Selected Dealers will be governed by the conditions herein set forth
until this Agreement is terminated. This Agreement will terminate when the
offering is completed. Nothing herein contained shall be deemed a commitment on
our part to sell you any Securities; such contractual commitment can only be
made in accordance with the provisions of paragraph 3 hereof.
10. You represent that you are a member in good standing of the NASD and
registered as a broker-dealer with the Commission, or that you are a foreign
broker-dealer not eligible for membership under Section 1 of the Bylaws of the
NASD who agrees to make no sales within the United States, its territories or
possessions or to persons who are nationals thereof or residents therein and, in
making sales, to comply with the NASD's interpretation with Respect to
FreeRiding and Withholding and with Sections 2730, 2740 and 2420 to the extent
applicable to foreign nonmember brokers and dealers, and Section 2750 of the
NASD's Rules of Fair Practice. Your attention is called to and you agree to
comply with the following: (a) Article III, Section 1 of the Rules of Fair
Practice of the NASD and the interpretations of said Section promulgated by the
Board of Governors of the NASD including Section 2740 and the
2
3
interpretation with respect to "Free-Riding and Withholding;" (b) Section 10(b)
of the 1934 Act, Rule 10b-10 and Regulation M of the general rules and
regulations promulgated under the 1934 Act; and (c) Rule 15c2-8 of the general
rules and regulations promulgated under the 1934 Act requiring the distribution
of a preliminary Prospectus to all persons reasonably expected to be purchasers
of the Securities from you at least 48 hours prior to the time you expect to
mail confirmations. You, as a member of the NASD, by signing this Agreement,
acknowledge that you are familiar with the cited laws and rules and agree that
you will not directly and/or indirectly violate any provisions of applicable law
in connection with your participation in the distribution of the Securities.
11. In addition to compliance with the provisions of paragraph 10 hereof,
you will not, until advised by us in writing or by wire that the entire offering
has been distributed and closed, bid for or purchase Securities in the open
market or otherwise make a market in the Securities or otherwise attempt to
induce others to purchase the Securities in the open market. Nothing contained
in this paragraph 11 shall, however, preclude you from acting as agent in the
execution of unsolicited orders of customers in transactions effectuated for
them through a market maker.
12. You understand that the Underwriter may in connection with the offering
engage in stabilizing transactions. If the Underwriter contracts for or
purchases in the open market in connection with such stabilization any
Securities sold to you hereunder and not effectively placed by you, the
Underwriter may charge you the Selected Dealer's concession originally allowed
you on the Securities so purchased and you agree to pay such amount to us on
demand.
13. By submitting an Offer to Purchase you confirm that you may, in
accordance with Rule 15c-1 adopted under the 1934 Act, agree to purchase the
number of Securities you may become obligated to purchase under the provisions
of this Agreement.
14. All communications from you should be directed to us at Xxxxxxxxx
Securities, Inc., 0 Xxxxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxx, X.X. Attn: Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxxxx,
Vice President (0 000-000-0000) and fax (000-000-0000). All communications from
