3. Representations of the Company. The Company hereby represents and
warrants to, and covenants with, the Purchaser as follows:
(a) The Company and each of its Significant Subsidiaries (as
defined in Regulation S-X under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended) is a corporation duly
incorporated, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the
jurisdiction of its incorporation, and has all requisite power to own its
respective property and to carry on its respective business as now conducted.
The Company and each of its Significant Subsidiaries is duly qualified to do
business and is in good standing in each jurisdiction in which the character
or location of the properties owned or leased by the Company or such
Significant Subsidiary, as the case may be, or the nature of the business
conducted by the Company or such Significant Subsidiary, as the case may be,
makes such qualification necessary, except where the failure to be so
qualified would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a material adverse
effect on the business, financial condition or results of operations of the
Company and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole (a "Material Adverse Effect").
(b) The Company has all requisite power and authority, corporate
and otherwise, to executive, deliver and to perform its obligations under this
Agreement and under the Registration Rights Agreement, to be dated as of the
Date hereof, between the Company and the Purchaser (the "Registration
Agreement"), including the consummation of the transactions contemplated
hereby and by the Registration Agreement (collectively, the "Transactions").
The execution and delivery of this Agreement and the Registration Agreement
(collectively, the "'Agreements") and the consummation of the Transactions
have been duly and validly authorized and approved by the Company's board of
directors and by all other required corporate action of the Company. The
Agreements have been duly and validly executed and delivered by the Company
and constitute the Company's valid and binding obligation, enforceable in
accordance with their terms, except as the enforceability thereof may be
limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, or similar laws affecting the
enforcement of creditors' rights generally.
(c) The Company's execution and delivery of the Agreements does
not, and the Company's performance of the Agreements shall not, require any
consent, approval, authorization or permit, or filing with or notification to,
any governmental or regulatory authority, domestic or foreign, except (i) for
applicable requirements, if any, of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended (the "Exchange Act"), (ii) the listing of the Shares on the Nasdaq
SmallCap Market (the "SmallCap"), (iii) filings and notices with, and
approvals from, the Federal Communication Commission and certain state public
utility commissions and (iv) where failure to obtain such consents, approvals,
authorizations or permits, or to make such filings or notifications, would not
have a Material Adverse Effect or a material adverse effect on the ability of
the Company to perform its obligations hereunder and under the Registration
Agreement.
(d) (i) The Company has furnished the Purchaser with a correct
and complete copy of each report, schedule and definitive proxy statement
heretofore filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission
(the "SEC") under the Exchange Act since December 31, 1997 (the "SEC
Documents"), which are all the documents (other than preliminary material)
that the Company was required by rules and regulations of the SEC to file with
the SEC under the Exchange Act since December 31, 1997. As of their respective
dates, none of the SEC Documents (including all exhibits and schedules thereto
and documents incorporated by reference therein) contained any untrue
statements of a material fact or omissions of a material fact necessary so as
not to render the statements therein misleading in light of the circumstances
under which they were made, and the SEC Documents complied when filed in all
material respects with the then applicable requirements of the Exchange Act.
The Company's financial statements included in the SEC Documents complied in
all material respects with the then applicable accounting requirements and the
published SEC rules and regulations with respect thereto, were prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles during the periods
involved (except as may have been indicated in the notes thereto or, in the
case of the unaudited statements, as permitted by Form I O-Q promulgated by
the SEC) and fairly present (subject, in the case of the unaudited statements,
to normal, recurring audit adjustments) the consolidated financial position of
the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries as at the dates thereof and the
consolidated results of their operations and cash flows for the periods then
ended. The consolidated balance sheet of the Company and its consolidated
subsidiaries as of September 30, 1998 (the "Balance Sheet Date") is referred
to herein as the "Balance Sheet."
(ii) Except as disclosed in the SEC Filings, since the
Balance Sheet Date, no event has occurred which has had or is reasonably
likely to have a Material Adverse Effect.
(iii) Other than through Mr. Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxx, in his
capacity as the Chairman and a director of the Company, the Company has not
provided the Purchaser with any material nonpublic information regarding the
Company.
(e) On the date hereof, the Company has an authorized
capitalization consisting of 30,000,000 shares of Common Stock, and 1,000,000
shares of preferred stock, par value $.01 per share ("Preferred Stock"), of
which 18,959,894 shares of Common Stock (not including 1, 119,000 treasury
shares, 900,000 of which are being reissued to the Purchaser hereunder) and
30,000 shares of Preferred Stock are issued and outstanding. All of such
shares have been duly authorized and validly issued and are fully paid and
nonassessable, and are not subject to any preemptive rights of other
stockholders. The Shares to be issued to the Purchaser pursuant to this
Agreement, when issued and delivered and paid for in accordance with the terms
hereof, will be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and not subject
to any preemptive rights of other stockholders, and the Purchaser will not be
subject to personal liability by reason of being a holder of such shares. All
other capital stock of the Company to be outstanding on the date hereof shall
have been duly authorized and validly issued and shall be fully paid and
nonassessable, and shall not have been subject to any preemptive rights of
other stockholders. The Common Stock is currently traded on the SmallCap.
(f) Neither the execution and delivery by the Company of the
Agreements nor the performance by the Company of the Transactions will (i)
violate or contravene any provision of the Certificate of Incorporation or
By-Laws of the Company or any of its subsidiaries, (ii) violate or contravene
any statute, rule, regulation, order or decree of any public body or authority
by which the Company or any of its subsidiaries or any of their respective
properties may be bound, (iii) result in a violation or breach of, conflict
with, constitute (with or without due notice or lapse of time or both) a
default (or give rise to any right of termination, cancellation, payment or
acceleration) under, or result in the creation of, any liens, pledges,
encumbrances, mortgages, charges, rights of others, claims, options, puts,
calls, transfer, restrictions, or security interests or other restrictions of
any kind or character (collectively, "Liens") upon any of the assets of the
Company or any of its subsidiaries pursuant to the terms of any note, bond,
mortgage, indenture, license, franchise, permit, agreement or any other
instrument or obligation to which the Company or any of its subsidiaries is a
party or by which it or any of their respective properties may be bound.
(g) Neither the Company nor any of its subsidiaries is (i) in
violation or noncompliance with any statute, law, ordinance, regulation, rule
or order of any foreign, federal, state or local government or any other
governmental department or agency, or any judgment, decree or other decision
of any court, applicable to its respective business or operations or (ii) in
violation, breach or default (with or without due notice or lapse of time or
both) under any of the terms, conditions or provisions of any agreement to
which it is a party, or by which any of its respective properties are bound,
except where any such violations or failures to comply or breaches or defaults
would not be reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect or a material
adverse effect on the ability of the Company to perform its obligations under
the Agreements or on the consummation of the Transactions. The Company and its
subsidiaries have all permits, licenses and franchises from governmental
agencies required to conduct their respective businesses as now being
conducted, except for such permits, licenses and franchises the absence of
which would not be reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect.
(h) The Company and each of its Significant Subsidiaries has valid
title and right to use all its material properties and assets (real and
personal, tangible and intangible), including all properties and assets
reflected on the Balance Sheet.
(i) Except as disclosed in the SEC Documents, there is no action,
suit or proceeding at law or in equity by any person or entity or any
arbitration or any administrative or other proceeding by or before any
governmental or other instrumentality or agency pending or, to the knowledge
of the Company, threatened against the Company or any of its subsidiaries
which would be reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect or a
material adverse effect on the ability of the Company to perform its
obligations under the Agreements or the consummation of the Transactions
contemplated hereby.
(j) No agent, broker, person or firm acting on behalf of the
Company is or will be entitled to any commission or broker's or finder's fees
from any of the parties hereto, or from any person or entity controlling,
controlled by or under common control with any of the parties hereto, in
connection with any of the Transactions.
(k) Neither the Company nor any of its affiliates have engaged in
any form of general solicitation or general advertising in connection with the
purchase and sale of Company securities hereunder, nor made any other sales or
solicited any other entities or persons to buy Company securities that would
require registration under the Securities Act of the Shares contemplated to be
sold and purchased hereunder.
(l) Upon consummation of the Closing, the Purchaser shall have
received from the Company good and marketable title to all of the Shares, free
and clear of all Liens.
4. Restrictive Legend.
(a) The Shares issued to the Purchaser pursuant hereto shall bear
the following legend:
"THE SECURITIES EVIDENCED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER
THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR UNDER ANY APPLICABLE STATE
SECURITIES LAW AND MAY NOT BE TRANSFERRED EXCEPT UPON DELIVERY TO THE COMPANY
OF AN OPINION OF COUNSEL SATISFACTORY IN FORM AND SUBSTANCE TO IT THAT SUCH
TRANSFER WILL NOT VIOLATE THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR ANY
APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAW."
(b) Upon receipt of an opinion of legal counsel to the Company
that either (i) the shares no longer constitute "restricted securities" under
Rule 144 of the Securities Act, (ii) the above-provided legend is no longer
required under applicable securities laws or (iii) the Shares are otherwise
freely tradable without registration under the Securities Act, the Company
shall, upon the request of the holder of the Shares and the submission of the
certificate evidencing such Shares, issue a substitute certificate without any
restrictive legend thereon.
5. Covenants.
(a) Until the second anniversary of the date hereof, the Company
shall use reasonable efforts to continue the listing for trading of the Common
Stock on the SmallCap or, in the Company's discretion, on such other national
securities market or exchange, and to comply with all applicable rules of the
SmallCap or, as the case may be, of such other national securities market or
exchange.
(b) Until the second anniversary of the date hereof, the Company
covenants (a) to file timely (or obtain valid extensions in respect thereof)
all reports required to be filed by the Company after the date hereof pursuant
to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act and (b) if the Company is not at
the time required to file reports pursuant to such sections, to prepare and
furnish to each such Purchaser annual and quarterly financial statements,
together with a discussion and analysis of such financial statements in form
and substance substantially similar to those that would otherwise be required
to be included in reports required by Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange
Act in the time period that such filings would have been required to have been
made under the Exchange Act.
(c) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, unless
required by applicable law or as a result of a change in the status of the
Purchaser, the Company will not instruct its transfer agent to place a
restrictive legend on the certificate (or certificates) representing the
Shares sold and purchased hereunder indicating that the Purchaser is a
"control person" or "affiliate" of the Company.
(d) The Company and the Purchaser shall pay all costs and
expenses incurred by it or on its behalf, respectively, in connection with
this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, including fees and
expenses of its own financial consultants, accounts and counsel.
6. Indemnification.
(a) The Company agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless the
Purchaser (collectively, including the Company as provided in Section 6(b)
hereof, the "Indemnified Parties") from and against any and all losses,
claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof), including
costs of defense other than costs of counsel referred to in Section 6(c)
hereof (collectively, "Liabilities") of the Indemnified Parties (as incurred)
as a result of (i) any breach or nonperformance of any of the representations,
warranties, covenants or agreements made by the Company in this Agreement, or
(ii) any pending or threatened action brought by the Company's stockholders or
creditors other than the Indemnified Parties or their officers, employees,
agents, advisors, directors, affiliates and creditors, arising out of or in
connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; provided,
however, that the Company shall not be obligated to indemnify, defend or hold
harmless hereunder any of the Indemnified Parties for any claims based on
actions taken by any of the Indemnified Parties or their officers, employees,
agents, advisors, directors or affiliates, other than the performance of the
covenants and agreements to be undertaken by Purchasers pursuant to this
Agreement and any other action authorized in writing by the Company, provided,
further, that, if and to the extent such indemnification is unenforceable for
any reason, the Company shall make the maximum contribution to the payment and
satisfaction of such indemnified liability that shall be permissible under
applicable laws. In connection with the obligation of the Company to
indemnify for Liabilities as set forth above, the Company further agrees to
reimburse each Purchaser for all such expenses (including reasonable fees,
disbursements and other charges of counsel) as they are incurred by the
Purchaser.
(b) The Purchaser agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless
the Company from and against any and all Liabilities as a result of any breach
or nonperformance of any of the representations, warranties, covenants or
agreements made by such Purchaser in this Agreement; provided, however, that
each Purchaser shall not be liable under this Section 6(b) to the extent that
it is finally judicially determined that such Liabilities resulted primarily
from a breach by the Company of any representation, warranty, covenant or
agreement of the Company contained in this Agreement; provided, further, that,
if and to the extent that such indemnification is unenforceable for any
reason, the Purchaser shall make the maximum contribution to the payment and
satisfaction of such indemnified liability that shall be permissible under
applicable laws. In connection with the obligation of the Purchaser to
indemnify for Liabilities as set forth above, the Purchaser further agrees to
reimburse the Company for all such expenses (including reasonable fees,
disbursements and other charges of counsel) as they are incurred by the
Company.
(c) If any claim, demand or liability is asserted by any third
party against any Indemnified Party, the indemnifying party ("Indemnifying
Party") shall have the right, unless otherwise precluded by applicable law, to
conduct and control the defense, compromise or settlement of any action or
threatened action brought against the Indemnified Party in respect of matters
embraced by the indemnity set forth in this Section 6 using counsel subject to
the approval of the Indemnified Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld or delayed. The Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ
counsel separate from counsel employed by the indemnifying party hereunder
("Indemnifying Party") in connection with any such action or threatened action
and to participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such
counsel employed by the Indemnified Party shall be at the sole expense of such
Indemnified Party unless (i) the Indemnifying Party shall have elected not,
or, after reasonable written notice of any such action or threatened action,
shall have failed, to assume or participate in the defense thereof, (ii) the
employment thereof has been specifically authorized by the Indemnifying Party
in writing, or (iii) the parties to any such action or threatened action
(including any impleaded parties) include both the Indemnifying Party and the
Indemnified Party and the Indemnified Party shall in good faith determine that
there may be one or more defenses available to the Indemnified Party that are
not available to the Indemnifying Party or legal conflicts of interest
pursuant to applicable rules of professional conduct between the Indemnifying
Party and the Indemnified Party (in any which case, the Indemnified Party
shall not have the right to assume the defense of such action on behalf of the
Indemnified Party), in either of which events referred to in clauses (i), (ii)
and (iii) the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel employed by the
Indemnified Party shall be at the expense of the Indemnifying Party (as
incurred). The Indemnifying Party shall not, without the written consent of
the Indemnified Party, settle or compromise any such action or threatened
action or consent to the entry of any judgment which does not include as an
unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or the plaintiff to the
Indemnified Party a release from all liability in respect of such action or
threatened action. Unless the Indemnifying Party shall have elected not, or
shall have after reasonable written notice of any such action or threatened
action failed, to assume or participate in the defense thereof, the
Indemnified Party may not settle or compromise any action or threatened action
without the written consent of the Indemnifying Party, which shall not be
unreasonably withheld or delayed. If, after reasonable written notice of any
such action or threatened action, the Indemnifying Party neglects to defend
the Indemnified Party, a recovery against the latter suffered by it in good
faith, is conclusive in its favor against the Indemnifying Party; provided,
however, that no such conclusive presumption shall be made if the Indemnified
Party has not received reasonable written notice of the action against the
Indemnified Party. All of any Indemnifying Party's obligations and all of the
rights and benefits of the Indemnified Parties set forth in this Section 6
shall survive the Closing and termination of this Agreement and, but for then
pending claims, shall terminate and cease to be of further force and effect as
of the second anniversary of the date hereof.
