STOCK PURCHASE AGREEMENT
STOCK PURCHASE AGREEMENT, dated as of December 29, 1987, by and
among those persons listed on Schedule I hereto which execute this Agreement on
or before January 15, 1988 (such persons are sometimes hereinafter referred to
individually as a "Buyer" and collectively as "Buyers"), Image Entertainment,
Inc., a Colorado corporation ("Seller"), and Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxxx residing at 000
Xxxxx Xxxxxxxx Xxxxx, #000, Xxxxxxx Xxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxx 00000, Xxxxxx X. Xxxxxx
residing at 0000 Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxx Xxxxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxx 00000, and Xxx X.
Xxxxxx residing at 0000 Xxxxxxx, Xxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxx 00000 (Messrs. Xxxxxxxxx,
Xxxxxx and Xxxxxx are hereinafter individually referred to as a "Director" and
collectively referred to as the "Directors").
WHEREAS, upon the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, each
Buyer desires to purchase from Seller and Seller desires to issue and sell to
each Buyer the number of shares of Seller's common stock set forth on Schedule I
hereto opposite the name of such Buyer for a purchase price equal to $.05 per
share (such shares of common stock are hereinafter collectively referred to as
the "Shares"); and
WHEREAS, the parties desire to provide for certain rights and
obligations of the parties hereto with respect to, among other things, the
manner in which the proceeds from the
sale of the Shares may be expended by Seller and certain rights of Buyers in
respect of their ownership of the Shares.
NOW, THEREFORE, for and in consideration of the premises and the
covenants, agreements, representations and warranties herein contained and other
good and valuable consideration, the parties hereto agree as follows:
1. Purchase and Sale of Stock; Payment and Delivery of Shares; Use
of Proceeds.
(a) The Shares. Upon the terms and conditions herein set
forth, Seller hereby issues, sells, and delivers to each Buyer, and each Buyer
hereby purchases from Seller, that number of Shares determined by dividing the
purchase price set forth opposite such Buyer's name on Schedule I hereto, which
purchase price includes interest on the loans referred to in subsection 1(b)
below through the date hereof, by $.05 (the aggregate amount of such purchase
prices is sometimes hereinafter referred to as the "Purchase Price"); provided,
however, that no fractional Shares shall be issued -- the exact number of Shares
to be issued to each Buyer has been rounded to the nearest whole Share and is
listed on Schedule I hereto. Concurrently with the execution of this Agreement,
each Buyer shall deliver to Seller the Purchase Price for the Shares being
purchased by such Buyer, in United States currency (subject to the provisions of
subsection 1(b) below), and Seller shall cause to be delivered to
-2-
each Buyer duly issued stock certificate(s) evidencing such Buyer's Shares.
(b) The Note. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that
the Buyers have collectively loaned to Seller the principal amount of $590,000
(the "Loan Proceeds"), repayment of which is evidenced by a demand promissory
note of Seller a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit A (the "Note").
Seller and each of the Directors jointly and severally represent and warrant to
each Buyer that the Loan Proceeds have at all times been and currently are
deposited in a separate account of Seller and such Loan Proceeds have not been
used for any purposes other than the purposes permitted for the use of the
Proceeds as provided in Sections 4 and 6 of the Memorandum of Understanding,
dated October 15, 1987, by and among certain of the parties hereto (a copy of
which is attached hereto as Exhibit B; the "Memorandum of Understanding").
Seller acknowledges and agrees that the Loan Proceeds and all accrued interest
to date pursuant to the Note shall be applied towards the Purchase Price. Upon
issuance of the Shares to Buyers, the Note will be marked "paid in full" and
returned to Seller.
(c) Use of Proceeds. Until expended as provided herein, Seller
and each of the Directors jointly and severally agree that the proceeds from the
sale of the Shares
-3-
(the "Proceeds") will be held in an interest bearing account of Seller (into
which no other deposits shall be made) separate from other accounts of Seller
and requiring dual signatures, one of which will be that of either of the
Buyers' Representatives (as hereinafter defined). Seller and each of the
Directors jointly and severally agree that Seller shall use the Proceeds only
for the purposes of (i) obtaining the exclusive long-term rights to the
production and distribution of marketable laser disc products, including,
without limitation, motion pictures, instructional videos and interactive
programming, or (ii) payment by Seller of past due royalties owed by Seller to
motion picture distributors up to a maximum payment of $100,000 (provided,
however, that any Loan Proceeds that have been used by Seller to pay such past
due royalties shall be included for the purpose of computing said $100,000
amount). Until the Proceeds have been completely expended as provided herein,
Seller and each of the Directors jointly and severally agree that Seller shall
provide Buyers' Representatives with a copy of each contract it proposes to
enter into with respect to obtaining the above-mentioned exclusive rights, and
Seller shall not execute any such contract without Buyers' Representatives'
prior written approval, which shall not be unreasonably withheld; provided,
however, that Buyers' Representatives shall use reasonable efforts to notify
Seller of their approval or disapproval of
-4-
any such contract within five business days after receipt by Buyers'
Representatives of such contract; provided, further, however, that Buyers'
Representatives shall have no liability whatsoever for any failure to grant such
approval or disapproval within such five (5) business days. Whenever the term
"Buyers' Representatives" is used in this Agreement it shall refer to those two
persons designated by the Buyer pursuant to the Shareholders Agreement referred
to in Section 6 hereof. Unless and until Seller is notified of whom the Buyers'
Representatives are, they shall be Xxxxx X. Xxxxxxxxx and Xxxx Xxxxxx.
2. Representations, Warranties and Covenants of Buyers. In order to
induce Seller to issue and sell the shares to Buyers, each Buyer, severally and
not jointly, hereby represents, warrants and covenants to Seller, for himself,
herself or itself and for no other Buyer, which representations and warranties
shall survive the execution of this Agreement and the consummation of the
transactions contemplated hereby, as follows:
(a) Each Buyer has the financial ability to bear the economic
risk of its investment in the Shares (i.e., each Buyer can afford a complete
loss of its investment).
(b) Each Buyer has adequate means of providing for its current
needs and possible contingencies, and has no
-5-
need for liquidity in the investment in the Shares and has no reason to
anticipate any change in circumstances, financial or otherwise, which may cause
or require any sale or distribution of the Shares.
(c) Each Buyer's overall commitment to investments which are
not readily marketable is not disproportionate to its net worth and its
investment in the Shares will not cause such overall commitment to become
excessive. Each Buyer has determined that the purchase of the Shares is
consistent with its investment objectives and income prospects.
(d) Each Buyer has the requisite knowledge and experience in
financial and business matters to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks
of an investment in the Shares.
(e) Each Buyer understands that the Shares have not been
registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act"), or under
applicable state securities laws.
(f) Each Buyer is acquiring the Shares solely for its own
account, for investment purposes only and not with the intention of, or a view
toward, the subdivision, resale, transfer or further distribution thereof.
-6-
(g) Each Buyer shall not sell or otherwise dispose of the
Shares unless and until a registration statement covering such proposed
disposition shall be in effect under the Act, and under applicable state
securities laws, or Seller shall have received a written opinion of counsel to
such Buyer to the effect that such proposed disposition would be exempt from the
registration requirements of the Act and of applicable state securities laws.
(h) Each Buyer understands that the foregoing representations,
warranties and covenants are being relied upon by Seller in connection with
Seller's entering into this Agreement.
(i) No Buyer has engaged or dealt with any person or entity
who would be entitled to any broker's or finder's fee or commission with respect
to the execution of this Agreement or any of the transactions described herein
and contemplated hereby.
(j) Each Buyer has been given an opportunity to speak to
management of Seller regarding the business and financial condition of Seller.
3. Restrictive Legend. The stock certificates evidencing the Shares
will each bear the following restrictive legend:
-7-
"THE SHARES EVIDENCED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN
REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED. THEY MAY
NOT BE SOLD UNLESS THERE IS A CURRENT REGISTRATION STATEMENT IN
EFFECT COVERING SUCH SHARES OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL TO THE HOLDER
OF THE SHARES IS OBTAINED TO THE EFFECT THAT THE TRANSFER OF THE
SHARES SATISFIES THE CONDITIONS FOR AN EXEMPTION FROM THE SECURITIES
ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED. THE SHARES EVIDENCED BY THIS CERTIFICATE
ARE SUBJECT TO CERTAIN RESTRICTIONS IMPOSED BY A SHAREHOLDERS
AGREEMENT, DATED DECEMBER 29, 1987 WHICH IS ON FILE WITH THE RECORDS
OF THE CORPORATION."
Each Buyer agrees and acknowledges that stop transfer orders will be placed in
Seller's records with respect to the Shares.
4. Representations and Warranties of Seller. Seller and each of the
Directors jointly and severally hereby represent and warrant to each Buyer,
which representations and warranties shall survive the execution of this
Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, as
follows:
(a) Organization. Seller is a corporation, duly organized,
validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Colorado
and is qualified to do business in every jurisdiction where such qualification
is necessary, except where the failure so to qualify would not have a materially
adverse effect on the business or condition, financial or otherwise, of Seller.
-8-
(b) Corporate Power and Authority. Seller has the corporate
power and authority to execute, deliver and perform this Agreement and all of
the transactions described herein and contemplated hereby. The execution,
delivery and performance of this Agreement and all of the transactions described
herein and contemplated hereby have been duly authorized by all requisite action
on the part of Seller, including any requisite approval of the shareholders and
the Board of Directors of Seller.
(c) Capitalization; Shares and Options Issued or Reserved. The
authorized and outstanding capital stock of Seller is set forth on Schedule II
hereto. Each of the outstanding shares of the capital stock of Seller has been
duly authorized and validly issued and is fully paid and non-assessable. There
are currently issued and outstanding, reserved for issuance or subject to
agreements to be issued or reserved for issuance 104,310,541 shares of common
stock of Seller (the "Common Stock") (which number includes, without limitation,
the Shares being sold to Buyers and the Rights being granted to Buyers
hereunder). Such number includes shares which (i) are issued and outstanding,
(ii) have been reserved for issuance pursuant to options granted by Seller, or
(iii) have been reserved for issuance pursuant to options which Seller has
agreed to grant. All such options and agreements to grant options (the
"Options") are separately
-9-
listed on Schedule II hereto. Certain of the Options have been granted to
directors and other members of the management of Seller and those are designated
on Schedule II, and sometimes referred to herein, as the "Management Options".
Seller hereby represents and warrants the accuracy of all information set forth
in such Schedule. At the date hereof there are issued and outstanding, reserved
for issuance or subject to agreements to be issued or reserved for issuance
4,310,541 (plus any shares issuable upon the exercise of Rights, as hereinafter
defined) Shares of Common Stock in excess of the number of authorized Shares of
Common Stock of Seller (collectively the "Excess Shares"). The fact that the
number of shares issued, reserved for issuance or subject to agreements to be
issued or reserved for issuance exceeds the authorized number of Shares of
Seller's Common Stock does not adversely affect in any manner whatsoever the due
and valid issuance of the Shares to Buyers. Seller and each of the Directors
jointly and severally agree to cause to be submitted to the shareholders of
Seller at a meeting to be held not later than March 1, 1988, for approval an
amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation of Seller to increase the number
of authorized shares of Common Stock so that the number of authorized shares
shall exceed the total number of shares issued and outstanding, reserved for
issuance or subject to agreements to be issued or reserved for issuance
(including,
-10-
without limitation, shares to be issued pursuant to Rights, as hereinafter
defined). Each of the Directors jointly and severally agrees to vote his shares
of Common Stock in favor of the adoption of such amendment to Seller's
Certificate of Incorporation. Pending the effective date of such amendment, each
of the Directors jointly and severally agrees that each shall not exercise (and
Seller shall not permit any Director to so exercise) any Management Option (and
each of the agreements pursuant to which such Management Options were granted
have been so amended) held by him, which exercise would cause the number of
shares of Common Stock, which are issued and outstanding, or reserved for
issuance, or subject to agreements to be issued or reserved for issuance
(including, without limitation, shares to be issued pursuant to Rights) to
exceed 100,000,000 shares. Except for the Options, there are no outstanding
subscriptions, rights, options, warrants, calls, commitments, conversion rights,
contracts or agreements of any kind or nature to which Seller is a party or by
which it is bound or with respect to which any Director has any knowledge,
calling for the issuance, transfer, sale, disposition or voting of any shares of
any class of capital stock or securities convertible or exchangeable for any
shares of any class of the capital stock of Seller. Except as reflected on
Schedule II attached hereto, since October 15, 1987, the date of the Memorandum
of Understanding, to and including the date
-11-
hereof, Seller has not issued any shares of Common Stock (other than pursuant to
the Options), subscriptions, rights, options, warrants, calls or conversion
rights, nor entered into any contract, agreement or commitment of any kind or
nature (x) calling for the issuance, transfer, sale, disposition, or voting of
any shares of any class of capital stock or securities convertible or
exchangeable for shares of any class of capital stock of Seller, or (y) with
regard to a sale of all or substantially all of its assets or for any merger,
reorganization, recapitalization, or consolidation of Seller.
(d) Shares Free from Encumbrances. The Shares issuable
hereunder will, when issued, be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and
nonassessable, and will be free and clear of all liens, encumbrances, mortgages,
pledges, claims and restrictions of any kind or nature except for restrictions
on transferability imposed by the Act.
(e) Subsidiaries. Seller has no subsidiaries and does not own,
of record or beneficially, in excess of five percent (5%) of the capital stock
of any corporation, except for those wholly-owned subsidiaries listed on
Schedule III hereto.
(f) No Conflicts, Etc. The execution, delivery and performance
of this Agreement and the consummation of
-12-
the transactions described herein and contemplated hereby do not and will not
(i) violate (A) any law, ordinance or regulation of any governmental authority
or the terms and provisions of the Certificate of Incorporation or the By-laws
of Seller, (B) any applicable order, judgment, decree, rule or regulation of any
court or other governmental agency, or (C) the terms or provisions of any
indenture, any agreement for borrowed money, any bond, note or other similar
instrument or any other material agreement or document to which Seller or any
Director is a party or by which Seller or any Director or any of their
respective property is bound, (ii) be in conflict with, result in a breach of or
constitute (with due notice or lapse of time or both) a default under any such
indenture, agreement, bond, note, instrument or other material agreement or
document to which Seller or any Director is a party or by which Seller or any
Director or any of their respective property is bound, or (iii) result in the
creation of any lien, charge, or encumbrance of any nature whatsoever. This
Agreement and the transactions described herein and contemplated hereby will,
when delivered, constitute legal, valid, and binding obligations of Seller and
each of the Directors, enforceable against Seller and each of the Directors in
accordance with their respective terms.
(g) Taxes and Tax Returns. Seller has accurately prepared, or
caused to be prepared, and has duly and
-13-
timely filed with federal, state, local and foreign authorities, all tax returns
and other reports required by law, regulation or otherwise required to be filed
or reported by Seller on or prior to the date of this Agreement, and Seller has
paid or made adequate provision for the payment of all taxes, penalties or
interest shown to be due thereon including those taxes for which Seller is a
collection agent (e.g., withholding taxes, excise taxes, social security and
similar taxes). All such returns and other reports accurately and properly
report or state all information required to be reported or stated therein. The
charges, accruals and reserves shown in Seller's financial statements in respect
of federal, state, local or foreign taxes for all fiscal periods to date are
adequate, there are no material unpaid assessments or proposals for additional
federal, state, local or foreign taxes for which Seller does not have adequate
reserves, nor does Seller know of any basis therefor for any such year. Seller
has not executed or filed with the Internal Revenue Service or any other taxing
authority any agreement which is still in effect including any agreement
extending the period for assessment or collection of any income taxes or other
taxes for which Seller may be liable. Seller is not a party to any pending
action or proceeding by any governmental authority for assessment or collection
of taxes for which Seller may be liable, and no claim for assessment or
-14-
collection of taxes for which Seller may be liable has been asserted or
threatened against it.
(h) Governmental Approval and Compliance With Applicable Laws.
Seller has all requisite power and authority including all necessary or
appropriate licenses, permits, certificates, approvals and other authorizations
required to carry on and conduct its business in the manner in which the
business has been, is and will be conducted, and to own, lease, use and operate
its assets at the places and in the manner in which its assets have been and are
being owned, leased, used and operated. All assets of Seller are used and
maintained, and the business of Seller is and has been since the Seller's date
of incorporation conducted, in conformity with all applicable laws, ordinances,
regulations, orders, judgments and decrees of all federal, state, local or
foreign authorities. No action, consent or approval of, or registration or
filing with, or any other action or license by any governmental agency, bureau,
commission, court or other authority is required in connection with the
execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement or any of the transactions
described herein or contemplated hereby and all of the actions, consents,
approvals, registrations and filings described in the immediately preceding
sentence have been duly obtained and are in full force and effect. Neither
Seller, any Director nor any officer of Seller has received any notice
-15-
from any person or governmental agency relating to any violation or alleged
violation by Seller of any law, ordinance, regulation, order, judgment or decree
of any court or governmental authority.
(i) Litigation. No litigation or proceeding of any kind
whatsoever (including, without limitation, unfair labor practice complaints or
union representation elections or actions concerning intangible property) is
pending or, to the best knowledge of Seller or any Director, threatened against
Seller, its assets or business, nor does Seller or any Director know of any
basis for same. Neither Seller nor any Director has any knowledge of any action
or of any audit or investigation relative to Seller or any Director, their
respective assets or businesses by any governmental agency or entity, whether
federal, state, local or foreign, which is now pending or has been undertaken at
any time since the date of incorporation of Seller.
(j) No Defaults. Seller is not in default (i) with respect to
any order, judgment, writ, injunction, decree, rule or regulation of any
governmental instrumentality or other agency which could have a materially
adverse effect on its financial condition or (ii) in the performance, observance
or fulfillment of any of the obligations, covenants or conditions contained in
any indenture, any agreement for
-16-
borrowed money, any bond, note or other similar instrument or any other material
agreement or document to which Seller is a party or by which Seller or its
property is otherwise bound.
(k) Contract Rights. Seller has complied with the terms of
every material agreement, contract or instrument (including, without limitation,
license or distribution agreements of any kind) of any nature to which it is a
party. No rights of Seller under any such contract, agreement, lease, license,
commitments, oral commitments or understandings, or distribution agreements have
been assigned or transferred by Seller to any person or, except as disclosed in
Seller's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 1987,
pledged, hypothecated, sublicensed, subleased or otherwise encumbered. All
contracts, agreements, leases, licenses, commitments, oral agreements,
understandings and distribution agreements of Seller have been lawfully entered
into and are in full force and effect in accordance with their respective terms
and there have been no cancellations thereof or threatened disputes thereunder.
Seller hereby advises Buyers that payments to certain licensors and vendors of
Seller are in arrears under the terms of Sellers' agreements with such licensors
and vendors. In each such case, Seller has an oral agreement with such licensor
or vendor with regard to the delinquent payments and has received assurance that
no right as a result of such delinquency will be asserted by such
-17-
licensor or vendor. Seller owns or possesses the right to use all patents,
patent applications, trademarks, service marks, trade names, brands, copyrights
and licenses, and rights with respect to each of the foregoing, necessary or
appropriate for the conduct of its business as presently conducted, without any
conflict with the rights of others.
(l) Financial Statements; Condition of Seller. Attached hereto
as Schedule IV are (i) the audited financial statements (including any notes
thereto) of Seller for the year ended March 31, 1987 and (ii) the unaudited
financial statements (including any notes thereto) of Seller for each of the
first two quarters of fiscal 1988, in each case duly certified by the president
and chief executive officer of Seller. Such financial statements were prepared
in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles consistently applied
and fairly present the financial condition of Seller as of the dates thereof and
the results of operations of Seller for the periods then ended. There has been
no material adverse change in the business, assets, condition (financial or
otherwise) or results of operations of Seller taken as a whole since the date of
the most recent financial statements provided pursuant hereto.
(m) Employee Benefit Plans. Seller is in compliance in all
material respects with the applicable provi-
-18-
sions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as the same may be
amended ("ERISA"), and the regulations and published interpretations thereunder.
No reportable event (as defined in section 4043(b) of ERISA) has occurred with
respect to any employee plan subject to the provisions of ERISA administered by
Seller or any administrator designated by Seller.
(n) Annual Report on Form 10-K; Filings with Securities and
Exchange Commission. Attached hereto as Schedule V are true and correct copies
of Seller's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 1987 (the
"Annual Report") and of its Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the first two
fiscal quarters of fiscal 1988 (the "Quarterly Reports"). All information
contained in the Annual Report and the Quarterly Reports is accurate and the
Annual Report and the Quarterly Reports do not contain any material misstatement
of fact or omit to state any material fact which would make any statement
contained therein misleading. Seller has duly filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission all reports and documents required to be filed by it under
the Act and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. All information
contained in such reports and documents is accurate and no such report or
document contains any material misstatement of fact or omits to state any
material fact which would make any statement contained therein misleading.
-19-
(o) No Material Misstatements. No report, financial statement,
exhibit or schedule furnished by or on behalf of Seller in connection with the
negotiation of this Agreement and the transactions described herein and
contemplated hereby, or to be included herein, nor any other information
required to be furnished hereby, contains any material misstatement of fact or
omitted or omits to state any material fact which would make the statements
contained herein or therein materially misleading.
(p) Brokers. Neither Seller nor any Director has engaged or
dealt with any person or entity who would be entitled to any broker's or
finder's fee or commission with respect to the execution of this Agreement or
any of the transactions described herein and contemplated hereby.
5. Anti-Dilutive Rights.
(a) Each Buyer shall have the following anti-dilutive rights
("Rights") in accordance with the following provisions, terms and conditions of
this Section 5, so long as such Buyer (including any affiliate (as such term is
defined in the Act) or member of the immediate family of such Buyer; hereinafter
an "Affiliate"; for purposes of this Section 5 only, the term Buyer shall
include any such Affiliate) continues to own at least fifty percent (50%) of the
Shares sold to such Buyer pursuant hereto. The loss of Rights by a
-20-
Buyer shall not cause any other Buyer to lose his Rights hereunder, it being
understood that,, except as expressly set forth in subsection (d) below, each
Buyer shall hold his, her or its Rights independently and not as part of a
group. If Seller shall issue any additional shares of Common Stock (including,
without limitation, the issuance of additional shares of Common Stock pursuant
to the exercise of a Management Option, other option or exercise of any
conversion rights) ("Dilutive Shares"), Seller and each of the Directors jointly
and severally agree that Seller shall afford to each Buyer the right to acquire
in whole or in part that number of additional shares of Common Stock which would
result in such Buyer owning after such purchase (assuming such purchase took
place immediately after the issuance of the Dilutive Shares giving rise to the
Right) the same percentage ownership of outstanding shares of Common Stock as
such Buyer owned immediately prior to the issuance of such Dilutive Shares
(taking into account all Dilutive Shares issued and assuming the issuance of all
shares issuable to all Buyers in connection with the exercise of the Rights).
Such Rights shall be afforded to each Buyer by Seller delivering to Buyers'
Representatives a Rights Certificate in accordance with subsection (e) below.
(b) Each time that a Management Option is exercised, each
Buyer then entitled to Rights shall have the
-21-
right to exercise such Rights at any time and from time to time during the
two-year period following receipt by the Buyers' Representatives of the Rights
Certificate relating to the exercise of such Management Option. [The purchase
price to acquire such additional shares of Common Stock shall be equal to the
higher of (A) $.05 per share and (B) the price per share at which such Dilutive
Shares were issued.] Seller and each of the Directors jointly and severally
represent, warrant and covenant that Management Options for 6,973,858 shares
have been exercised on or prior to the date hereof and that Rights with respect
thereto are hereby granted to each of the Buyers in accordance with this Section
5, the number of shares issuable upon the exercise of such Rights being set
forth on Schedule I hereto. The per share exercise price of each such Right is
$.055, which was the exercise price of the Management Option heretofore
exercised.
(c) In all cases of the issuance of Dilutive Shares other than
in connection with the exercise of Management Options, each time that Seller
issues Dilutive Shares each Buyer then entitled to Rights shall have the right
to exercise such Rights at any time within a 90 day period after receipt by the
Buyers' Representatives of the Rights Certificate relating to the issuance of
such Dilutive Shares. The purchase price to acquire such additional shares of
Common Stock shall be the price per share at which such
-22-
Dilutive Shares were issued.
(d) With respect to each issuance by Seller of Dilutive
Shares, if any Buyer then entitled to Rights either (x) does not exercise such
Rights in full in accordance with subsection (b) or subsection (c), as
applicable, or (y) gives earlier written notice to Seller and to the other
Buyers that he will not exercise his Rights with respect to such issuance (it
being understood that any such notice shall be irrevocable), each of the other
Buyers then entitled to Rights shall be permitted on or before the thirtieth day
after the expiration of the period during which the Rights were exercisable by
the non-exercising Buyer thereof, to exercise the non-exercising Buyer's
Rights to the extent not exercised by such Buyer (the number of shares not being
purchased by such non-exercising Buyer being hereinafter referred to as
"Available Shares"). If two (2) or more other Buyers notify the Seller of their
desire to acquire all or portions of the Available Shares which in the aggregate
equal or exceed the number of Available Shares, each exercising Buyer shall
acquire that number of Available Shares determined by multiplying the number of
Available Shares by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of Shares
owned by such exercising Buyer and purchased by him pursuant to this Agreement,
and the denominator of which is the total number of Shares owned by all
exercising Buyers and purchased by them
-23-
pursuant to this Agreement, unless any exercising Buyer desires to purchase less
than its full portion as determined above, in which case, the other exercising
Buyers shall purchase the balance of such Available Shares in proportion to
their ownership of Shares in series as each remaining exercising Buyer refuses
to purchase its proportionate share of the balance of the Available Shares. Any
notice given by a Buyer pursuant to subclause (y) above shall not be construed
as a waiver of such Buyer's Rights with respect to prior or subsequent issuances
of Dilutive Shares.
(e) Within the first fifteen (15) days of each fiscal quarter
of Seller, Seller and each of the Directors jointly and severally agree that
Seller shall deliver to Buyers' Representatives a Rights Certificate ("Rights
Certificate") setting forth the following with respect to all issuances of
Dilutive Shares by Seller during the immediately preceding fiscal quarter: (i)
the manner in which such Dilutive Shares were issued; (ii) the consideration
received by Seller for such Dilutive Shares; (iii) the number of shares of
Common Stock outstanding immediately before and immediately after the issuance
of such Dilutive Shares; (iv) the name and address of the purchaser(s) of such
Dilutive Shares; (v) the date on which such Dilutive Shares were issued to such
purchaser(s); (vi) the number of Dilutive Shares which were issued; (vii)
whether such Dilutive Shares were issued
-24-
pursuant to a Management Option; (viii) the number of shares of Common Stock
each Buyer is entitled to purchase as a result of the issuance of such Dilutive
Shares; (ix) if Dilutive Shares were issued pursuant to a Management Option,
that such Buyer may exercise his Rights, in whole or in part, up to two years
after receipt of the Rights Certificate relating to such Rights by Buyers'
Representatives; (x) if Dilutive Shares were issued other than pursuant to a
Management Option, that such Buyer may exercise his Rights, in whole or in part,
up to 90 days after receipt of the Rights Certificate relating to such Rights by
the Buyers' Representatives; and (xi) the per share consideration to be paid by
Buyer in order to exercise such Rights. The failure by Seller to timely deliver
a Rights Certificate with respect to the issuance of Dilutive Shares shall not
adversely affect or impair any Buyer's Rights, but the Rights shall be
exercisable at any time during the period in which they would have been
exercisable had the Rights Certificate been timely given and such period shall
not terminate until the expiration of the applicable period after a Rights
Certificate relating to such Dilutive Shares is actually delivered by Seller to
Buyers' Representatives.
(f) Any Buyer desiring to exercise all or any portion of its
Rights (or any rights with respect to Available Shares) shall do so by giving
notice of its intention to exercise such Rights (or any rights with respect to
Available
-25-
Shares), or portion thereof, within the applicable time periods heretofore set
forth, to Seller and each of the other Buyers, and setting a closing date within
twenty (20) days of such notice.
(g) In the event that any Dilutive Shares are issued for a
consideration other than cash or notes, or any combination thereof, then in such
event the exercise price to be paid by any Buyer in connection with the exercise
of any such Right shall be the cash equivalent to the fair market value of the
other consideration received by Seller in connection with the issuance of such
Dilutive Shares. The determination of fair market value of such other
consideration shall be determined by the Board of Directors of Seller in the
exercise of good faith; provided, however, that if one or more Buyers object to
the fair market value so determined, such Buyer(s) and Seller will attempt to
agree on such fair market value. If no agreement can be reached within twenty
(20) days after the date on which one or more such Buyers object to the fair
market value determination, such Buyer(s), on the one hand, and Seller, on the
other hand, shall select a third party appraiser (whose fees and expenses will
be paid by Seller), which appraiser will determine the fair market value. The
third party appraiser's decision shall be final and binding and neither party
shall appeal or otherwise contest the same. If such Buyer and Seller cannot
agree on a
-26-
third party appraiser the third party appraiser shall be selected by the then
President of the American Arbitration Association.
(h) Subject to the provisions of paragraph 4(c) hereof, Seller
hereby represents, warrants and covenants that it will, at all times, reserve
for issuance a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock to meet its
obligations with respect to the Rights granted to Buyers hereunder.
(i) In case of any reorganization of Seller (or any other
corporation, the stock or other securities of which are at the time receivable
on the exercise of any Rights) after the date hereof, or in case, after such
date, Seller (or any such other corporation) shall consolidate with or merge
into another corporation or convey all or substantially all of its assets to
another corporation, then and in each such case the holder of any Right, upon
the exercise thereof as provided herein, at any time after the consummation of
such reorganization, consolidation, merger or conveyance, shall be entitled to
receive, in lieu of the stock or other securities and property receivable upon
the exercise of such Right prior to such consummation, the stock or other
securities or property to which such holder would have been entitled upon such
consummation if such holder had exercised such Right immediately prior to such
consummation.
-27-
(j) If in connection with a merger, consolidation,
recapitalization, reorganization or other similar transaction, Seller or any
other person purchases or redeems any options, warrants or conversion rights of
any nature whatsoever with respect to the Common Stock (or the holder of any
such option, warrant or conversion right receives any consideration therefor),
the exercise of which option, warrant or conversion right would have given rise
to Rights to Buyers hereunder, Seller and each of the Directors jointly and
severally agree that as a precondition to any such transaction Seller or such
other person shall be required to acquire from each Buyer at the same per share
price and on the same terms as such option, warrant or conversion right was
purchased, the Right which would have been granted to Buyer had such option,
warrant or conversion right been exercised immediately prior to such
transaction.
6. Shareholder's Agreement. Concurrently herewith, each of the
Buyers and Seller shall enter into the Shareholder's Agreement attached hereto
as Exhibit C.
7. Covenants.
(a) Seller and each of the Directors jointly and severally
agree that Seller shall use its best efforts to ensure that each Buyer's Shares
may be sold pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
In this
-28-
regard Seller and each of the Directors jointly and severally agree that after
the date hereof Seller shall timely file all reports and statements by Seller
required to be filed with or reported to the Securities and Exchange Commission.
(b) So long as the Buyers (including any Affiliates) continue
to own in the aggregate at least fifty (50%) percent of the Shares sold to
Buyers pursuant hereto, Seller and each of the Directors jointly and severally
agree that Seller shall not enter into any transaction with any Director, any
member of a Director's immediate family or any trust, corporation, partnership
or other entity in which Seller, any Director or any member of a Director's
immediate family has a direct or indirect interest without the prior written
consent of the Buyers' Representatives.
(c) Each of the Directors jointly and severally agree that
during the time of his employment with the Seller or while he serves as a
Director of the Seller and for a period of two (2) years thereafter, each
Director will not, directly or indirectly, anywhere in Canada or in the United
States own, manage, operate or control, or participate in the ownership,
management, operation or control of, or be connected with or have any interest
in, as a stockholder, investor, director, officer, employee, agent, consultant,
partner, lender or otherwise, whether as a distributor,
-29-
manufacturer, retailer or otherwise, any business or entity of any nature which
is competitive with the business conducted by Seller; provided, however, that
nothing contained in this Section 7(c) shall prohibit or restrict a Director
from owning, for investment purposes only, less than one (1%) percent of the
outstanding capital stock of any company whose shares are traded on a national
stock exchange or in the national over-the-counter market.
(d) In view of the fact that the Directors have been and will
be brought into close contact with many confidential affairs of Seller not
readily available to the public, each Director jointly and severally agrees
during his affiliation with Seller and thereafter to keep secret and retain in
the strictest confidence all information about business and financial matters
(such as costs, profits and plans for future expansion or development, plans for
marketing additional products, methods of operation and marketing concepts) of
Seller, its employment policies and plans, and any other proprietary information
relating to Seller, its operations, business and financial affairs (collectively
the "confidential matters") and for such time as Seller is operating not to
disclose those confidential matters to anyone outside of Seller, either during
or after the term of this Agreement, except in the course of performing his
duties with Seller or with Buyers' Representatives' express written
-30-
consent.
(e) If any Director commits a breach or threatens to commit a
breach of any of the provisions of Section 7(c) or 7(d), Buyers shall have the
right and remedy to have the provisions of such Section specifically enforced by
any Court having equity jurisdiction, it being acknowledged and agreed that any
such breach or threatened breach will cause irreparable injury to Buyers and
that money damages will not provide an adequate remedy to Buyers. Such right and
remedy shall be in addition to, and not in lieu of, any other rights and
remedies available to Buyers under law or equity.
(f) If any of the covenants contained in Section 7(c) or 7(d)
are hereafter construed to be invalid or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, the
same shall not affect the remainder of the covenant or covenants or the
enforceability in any other jurisdiction, which shall be given full effect,
without regard to the invalid portions or the unenforceability in such other
jurisdiction. If any of the covenants contained in Section 7(c) are held to be
unenforceable because of the scope thereof, the parties agree that the court
making such determination shall have the power to reduce the duration and/or
area of such provision and, in its reduced form, said provision shall be
enforceable; provided, however, that such court's determination shall not affect
the enforceability of Section 7(c) in any other
-31-
jurisdiction.
8. Demand and Piggy-back Rights.
(a) At any time after the second anniversary of the date
hereof, Seller and each of the Directors jointly and severally agree that Seller
shall, subject to all of the provisions of this Section 8, if requested in
writing to do so by one or more Buyers owning an aggregate of at least 2,000,000
Shares, file with the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Act, a
registration statement on an appropriate form covering the Shares then owned by
such Buyer(s) which such Buyer(s) requests to be registered. Seller and each of
the Directors jointly and severally agree that Seller shall keep effective the
registration statement filed pursuant to this subsection 8(a) during the period
commencing on the initial effective date of such registration statement and
ending on the earlier of (i) eighteen (18) months thereafter or (ii) the
completion of the sale of the Shares owned by the Buyer(s) which are covered
thereby.
(b) If at any time or times within a period of three (3) years
from the date hereof, Seller shall propose to file a registration statement
under the Act covering Common Stock being sold by Seller or any stockholder of
Seller, Seller and each of the Directors jointly and severally agree that Seller
shall, each such time, give written notice to
-32-
Buyers' Representatives of such proposal not later than twenty (20) business
days prior to the date such registration statement is proposed to be filed and
such notice shall offer each Buyer the opportunity to register its Shares
therein. Upon the written request of a Buyer, which request must be received by
Seller no fewer than seven (7) business days prior to the date of such proposed
filing and must specify the number of Shares it is requesting to be included in
such registration statement, Seller shall include therein, or shall cause the
managing underwriter or underwriters, if any, of a proposed underwritten
offering to include therein, the Shares on the same terms and conditions as the
other Common Stock included in such registration statement. Seller and each of
the Directors jointly and severally agree that Seller shall keep effective any
registration statement which pursuant to this subsection 8(b) includes any of
the Shares during the period commencing on the initial effective date of such
registration statement and ending on the earlier of (x) eighteen (18) months
thereafter and (y) the completion of the sale of the Shares which are covered
thereby.
(c) If the managing underwriter or underwriters of an
underwritten public offering made pursuant to any registration statement
pursuant to subsection 8(b) above delivers a written opinion to any Buyer(s)
seeking to include its (their) Shares pursuant to subsection 8(b) above
-33-
that the total number or kind of securities which such Buyer(s), Seller, Messrs.
Xxxxxxxxx, Xxxxxx and any other person or entities intend to include in such
offering would materially and adversely affect the success of such offering
(including, without limitation, the marketing of the shares of Common Stock to
be sold thereunder), then the number of shares of Common Stock of each such
Buyer, Seller, Messrs. Xxxxxxxxx, Xxxxxx and such other persons or entities to
be included in such offering may be reduced to the extent necessary to reduce
the total number of shares of Common Stock to be included in such offering to
the number recommended by such managing underwriter. Any such reduction shall be
a proportionate reduction to all such persons based upon the number of shares
proposed to be registered by each such person.
(d) Seller's obligations under this Section 8 with respect to
any Buyer shall be conditioned upon such Buyer's furnishing to Seller such
information and material as may be reasonably requested by Seller or its counsel
in connection with such registration statement and any public offering
thereunder including information and material concerning such Buyer as may be
required to be included in such registration statement under the Act and the
applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, and
upon the further condition that such Buyer shall undertake to take all
reasonable steps to comply with the Act and the applicable
-34-
rules and regulations thereunder and with the securities laws of the states in
which any such public offering is made. Seller agrees to take all reasonable
steps to comply in all respects with the Act and all applicable rules and
regulations thereunder and with the securities laws of the states in which any
such public offering is made.
(e) Seller shall bear all costs and expenses in connection
with the first registration statement demanded by any Buyer(s) pursuant to
Section 8(a) hereof, and of each registration statement filed pursuant to
Section 8(b) hereof, including the fees and expenses for the audited and other
financial statements of Seller included in such registration statements, and the
expenses of printing, filing, legal and Blue Sky and other similar expenses. In
connection with any registration statement pursuant to Section 8 including any
Shares owned by any Buyer(s), Seller agrees to take all reasonable steps to
comply with such Blue Sky or state securities laws as may be reasonably
requested by the Buyer(s) (except that it shall in no event be required to
qualify as a foreign corporation or give a general consent to the service of
process), and to furnish to the Buyer(s) such number of prospectuses or other
documents incident to such registration as they may from time to time reasonably
request.
(f) In connection with any registration statement which
pursuant to this Section 8 includes any of the
-35-
Shares, Seller will indemnify and hold harmless each Buyer whose Shares are
included therein against and in respect of any losses, claims, damages or
liabilities, joint or several (including legal or other expenses reasonably
incurred by each such Buyer in connection with investigating or defending any
such loss, claim, damage, liability or action) to which any such Buyer may
become subject under the Act or otherwise insofar as such losses, claims,
damages or liabilities (or actions with respect thereto) arise out of or are
based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact
contained in such registration statement, or arise out of or are based upon the
omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be
stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading.
(g) In connection with any registration statement which
pursuant to this Section 8 includes any of the Shares, each of the Buyers whose
Shares are included therein will indemnify and hold harmless Seller, its
officers and its directors and any controlling persons of Seller against and in
respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several
(including legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by any of them in
connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage,
liability or action) to which Seller or any such persons may become subject
under the Act or otherwise insofar as such losses, claims, damages or
-36-
liabilities (or actions with respect thereto) arise out of or are based upon any
untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in
such registration statement, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or
alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein
or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, but only to the
extent that any such untrue statement or omission is based upon information
furnished in writing to Seller by any such Buyer or any of its authorized
representatives for inclusion in such registration statement. It is expressly
agreed and understood that no Buyer shall be liable hereunder for the
independent acts or omissions of any other Buyer.
(h) Any party(ies) seeking indemnification (the "Indemnitee")
shall give prompt written notice to the party(ies) from whom it is seeking
indemnification (the "Indemnitor") of any claim by the Indemnitee against the
Indemnitor based on the indemnities contained in Sections 8(f) and 8(g) hereof,
or any claim against the Indemnitee, which might give rise to a claim based on
the aforesaid indemnities, stating the nature and basis of such claim and the
amount there of. Failure by the Indemnitee to give the Indemnitor prompt written
notice of any such claim shall not release the Indemnitor from liability with
respect thereto unless such failure to give notice has a materially adverse
effect on the Indemnitor's ability to defend such claim. Prompt written notice
shall mean within thirty (30) days after the Indemnitee re-
-37-
ceives notice of the claim from the person asserting such claim. The Indemnitee
shall permit the Indemnitor a reasonable opportunity to assume the defense,
settlement or compromise (herein called "defense" or "defend"), of any such
claim. Failure by the Indemnitor to notify the Indemnitee of its election to
defend within thirty (30) days after such notice thereof shall have been given
shall be deemed a waiver by the Indemnitor of its right to defend any such
claim. If the Indemnitor elects to defend such claim, it shall do so at its
expense through counsel or other representatives of its own choosing. Any Buyer
involved in such action, suit or proceeding shall make available to Seller, its
attorneys and accountants all books and records relating to any such action,
suit or proceeding and Seller shall make available to any such Buyer, its
attorneys and accountants, all books and records of Seller relating to any such
action, suit or proceeding, as the case may be. Such Buyer(s) and Seller agree
to render to each other such assistance as may reasonably be required in order
to insure the proper and adequate defense of any such action, suit or
proceeding.
(i) No Buyer shall make any settlement of any claims which
might give rise to liability of Seller under the indemnities contained in
Section 8(f) hereof, without the prior written consent of Seller, which consent
shall not be unreasonably withheld. Seller shall not make any settlement of any
claims which might give rise to liability of any Buyer under the indemnities
contained in Section 8(g) hereof, without the
-38-
prior written consent of the relevant Buyer(s), which consent shall not be
unreasonably witheld.
9. Certificate and Opinion of Counsel for Seller.

all of each Buyer's obligations under this Agreement.

with, the laws of the State of New York, applicable to contracts made and to be

and duties set forth herein shall, except as otherwise set forth herein, bind
and inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors, administrators, legal
representatives, successors and assigns of the parties hereto.
14. Assignability. Seller may not assign any of its rights or
obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the Buyer
or Buyers who would be affected by such assignment and any attempted assignment
without such consent shall be void and without effect.
15. Counterparts. This agreement may be signed in counterpart
copies, each of which shall be deemed an original, but which together shall
constitute one and the same instrument.
16. Notices. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all
notices, requests and demands to or upon the respective parties to this
Agreement shall be deemed to have been given or made when delivered by hand,
