Re: Registration Rights Agreement/Founding Director Warrant Purchase Agreement
Ladies and Gentlemen:
Reference is made to the Registration Rights Agreement dated June 7, 2006 by and among HD Partners Acquisition Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and the initial stockholders of the Company (the “Registration Rights Agreement”) and the Founding Director Warrant Purchase Agreement dated May 9, 2006 by and among the Company and the purchasers listed as signatories thereto (the “Founding Director WPA” and together with the Registration Rights Agreement, the “Agreements”). The Company, the initial stockholders under the Registration Rights Agreement and the purchasers under the Founding Warrant WPA are collectively referred to as the “Parties”. Except as otherwise indicated herein, capitalized terms not otherwise defined in this letter have the meanings given to such terms in the Agreements.
For purposes of clarification of the Agreements, the Parties wish to acknowledge that notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Agreements: (i) if a registration statement covering the securities issuable upon the exercise of the Founding Director Warrants was not effective at the time a holder desired to exercise the instruments, then such Founding Director Warrants could expire unexercised, and (ii) in no event would the Company be obligated to pay cash or other consideration to the holders of such Founding Director Warrants or “net-cash settle” the obligations of the Company under either of the Agreements.
