PURCHASE OF SECURITIES; REPURCHASE
SECTION 1.1. PURCHASE AND SALE OF THE COMMON STOCK. At the Closing,
subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, the Company
shall sell to the Investors, and the Investors shall purchase from the Company,
an aggregate of 1,475,410 shares of common stock of the Company, par value $.01

(the "Purchase Price"). The number of shares of Common Stock to be purchased by
each Investor shall be specified in writing to the Company not fewer than five
business days prior to the Closing Date (as herein defined).
SECTION 1.2. REPURCHASE. (a) At the Closing, subject to the terms
and conditions set forth in this Agreement, (i) the Company shall purchase from
each Selling Securityholder whose name appears on Schedule I hereto, and such
Selling Securityholder shall sell to the Company, the number of outstanding
shares of Common Stock owned by such Selling Securityholder set forth opposite
such Selling Securityholder's name on Schedule I hereto for a purchase price of
$91.50 per share in cash (the "Repurchase Price"), and (ii) such Selling
Securityholder shall surrender to the Company for cancellation the Options held
by such Selling Securityholder listed opposite such Selling Securityholder's
name on Schedule II hereto for consideration payable in cash in an amount equal
to the product of (x) the excess of the Repurchase Price over the exercise price
per share with respect to each such Option (for each share of Common Stock
subject to such Option, the "Option Consideration") and (y) the number of shares
of Common Stock for which such Option is exercisable. The surrender of an Option
for cancellation in exchange for the Option Consideration shall constitute a
release of any and all rights the holder had or may have had in the Option.
(b) At the Closing, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in
this Agreement, the Company shall repurchase from Odyssey Partners, L.P.

Stock, or such lesser number of shares of Common Stock (which in no event shall

Securityholders and Non-Original Stockholders (as defined in Section 1.2(c)
hereof) after giving effect to the purchases and sales of shares of Common Stock
pursuant to Section 1.2(a), the Additional Offers (as defined in Section 1.2(c)
3
hereof) and the foregoing provisions of this Section 1.2(b), for a purchase
price per share in cash equal to the Repurchase Price; PROVIDED that the Company
shall provide Odyssey written notice prior to the Closing Date if Odyssey is
required to sell less than 2,907,234 shares of Common Stock.
(c) (i) Promptly following the date of this Agreement, the Company
shall prepare and deliver a notice (an "Offer Notice") to each stockholder of
the Company who is not an original party to this Agreement (a "Non-Original
Stockholder") informing such Non-Original Stockholder of the transactions
contemplated hereby and of the Company's offer (collectively, the "Additional
Offers") to repurchase any or all of such Non-Original Stockholder's shares of
Common Stock, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement
and the Offer Notice, for a purchase price per share in cash equal to the
Repurchase Price and, to the extent applicable, to cancel such Non-Original
Stockholder's Options on the same terms as those provided in clause (ii) of
Section 1.2(a) hereof, and containing such additional financial and other
information as the Company shall determine to be appropriate so that such Offer
Notice, as of its date, shall not contain an untrue statement of a material fact
or omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements
therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not
misleading. Prior to delivering the Offer Notice to any Non-Original
Stockholder, the Company shall furnish a copy thereof to the Investors, shall
provide the Investors a reasonable opportunity to review such Offer Notice and
shall give reasonable consideration to any comments the Investors may make with
respect thereto.
(ii) Each Non-Original Stockholder who elects in accordance with the
Offer Notice to have the Company repurchase such Non-Original Stockholder's
shares of Common Stock or cancel such Non-Original Stockholder's Options shall,
as a condition to such election, agree to be bound by all the provisions of this
Agreement applicable to a Selling Securityholder, and the provisions of Section
1.2(a) shall be deemed to be amended to include such electing Non-Original
Stockholder as a Selling Securityholder with respect to the shares and Options
specified by such Non-Original Stockholder in accordance with such Non-Original
Stockholder's election under the Offer Notice.
(d) The shares of Common Stock to be purchased from the Selling
Securityholders pursuant to this Section 1.2 are hereinafter referred to as the
"Repurchase Shares". The Options to be surrendered to the Company for
cancellation by the Selling Securityholders pursuant to this
4
Section 1.2 are hereinafter referred to as the "Surrendered Options".
(e) (i) Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Selling Securityholder may,
by delivery of written notice to the Investors at the addresses provided in
Section 7.5 no later than 5 business days prior to the Closing Date, elect, in
accordance with the procedure set forth in Section 1.2(e)(ii) or (iii) below, to
receive, in lieu of cash, all or a portion of the Repurchase Price for the
Common Stock to be sold by such Selling Securityholder pursuant to this Section
1.2 in the form of the promissory note from the Company attached hereto as
Exhibit A (the "Repurchase Note"); PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that a Selling
Securityholder shall be entitled to elect to receive a Repurchase Note pursuant
to this Section 1.2(e) only if such Selling Securityholder is an "accredited
investor" (as defined in Regulation D under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended (the "Securities Act")) and such Selling Securityholder has provided the
Company with a certification to such effect, in form and substance satisfactory
to the Company; PROVIDED FURTHER, HOWEVER, that the aggregate principal amount
of Repurchase Notes may not exceed $112.8 million except in accordance with this
Section 1.2(e). Each Repurchase Note shall (A) bear interest at the Applicable
Rate (as defined below), (B) mature on January 15, 1998, and (C) entitle the
holder thereof to the benefits of the Letter of Credit (as defined below).
Concurrently with the issuance of a Repurchase Note to a Selling Securityholder,
the Investors shall cause the Lender (or another financial institution, which
other financial institution shall be acceptable to Selling Securityholders
holding a majority of the outstanding Common Stock who or which elect to receive
a Repurchase Note in lieu of cash), to issue and deliver to such Selling
Securityholder an irrevocable standby letter of credit in the form attached
hereto as Exhibit B with a face amount equal to (x) the aggregate principal
amount of such Repurchase Note, PLUS (y) the amount of all interest to accrue
thereon from the Closing Date to the maturity date (the "Letter of Credit"). The
Selling Securityholder shall be entitled to draw on the Letter of Credit in the
event that any payment under the Repurchase Note is not paid when due. The
"Applicable Rate" shall mean a fixed rate provided by Lender based on forward
LIBOR and the time period from the Closing Date to January 15, 1998.
(ii) The Selling Securityholders (other than the Non-Original
Stockholders) shall provide written notification (a "Request Notice") to the
Company and the Investors no later than five business days after the date hereof
indicating whether the maximum aggregate principal amount of the Repurchase
Notes such Selling Securityholders
5
desire to receive is greater or less than $112.8 million. If the maximum
aggregate principal amount of Repurchase Notes set forth in the Request Notice
exceeds $112.8 million, then the Investors shall notify such Selling
Securityholders in writing (the "Response Notice") within 10 business days
following the date hereof whether the aggregate principal amount of Repurchase
Notes to be issued to Odyssey and Xxxxx Xxxxxxx may exceed $112.8 million (it
being agreed that the Investors shall use commercially reasonable efforts (but
neither the Investors nor the Company shall be obligated to expend funds other
than legal and documentation expenses in connection therewith) to be able to
issue Repurchase Notes in excess of $112.8 million, if so requested by the
Selling Securityholders (and to obtain the requisite Letters of Credit without
reducing the Company's available commitments under the credit facilities
contemplated by the Commitment Letter)). If the Investors notify the Selling
Securityholders that the aggregate principal amount of Repurchase Notes may
exceed $112.8 million, then the maximum aggregate principal amount of the
Repurchase Notes shall be increased to such larger amount as the Investors are
able to obtain.
(iii) A Non-Original Stockholder shall include in its election in
accordance with the Offer Notice whether it desires to receive a Repurchase Note
for all or a portion of the Repurchase Price payable to such Non-Original
Stockholder; PROVIDED that such Non-Original Stockholder shall satisfy the
condition contained in the first proviso to Section 1.2(e)(i).
SECTION 1.3. CLOSING. (a) Unless this Agreement shall have been
terminated and the transactions herein contemplated shall have been abandoned
pursuant to Section 6.1, and subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the
conditions set forth in Article V, the closing of the purchase by and sale to

qualified or licensed to do business and is in good standing in each
jurisdiction in which the nature of its business or the ownership or leasing of

such jurisdictions where the failure to be so qualified or licensed would not
have, and is not reasonably likely to have, individually or in the aggregate, a
material adverse effect on the assets, business, financial condition or results
of operations of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries taken as a whole
("Material Adverse Effect"). The Company has delivered to the Investors complete
and correct copies of its Certificate of Incorporation and By-laws, as amended

Agreement, such shares will be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and
not subject to preemptive rights. All outstanding shares of capital stock of the

otherwise acquire or vote any shares of the capital stock of the Company or any
Company Subsidiary, (ii) obligates the Company or any Company Subsidiary to

or vote any shares of the capital stock of the Company or any Company
Subsidiary, or (iii) restricts the transfer of Common Stock.
(c) AUTHORITY; NONCONTRAVENTION. The Company has all requisite
corporate power and authority to enter into this Agreement and to consummate the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement. The execution and delivery of this
Agreement by the Company and the consummation by the Company of the transactions
contemplated hereby have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action
on the part of the Company. This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered
by the Company and, assuming this Agreement constitutes the valid and binding
agreement of each of the Investors, constitutes a valid and binding obligation
of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms,
except to the extent enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency,
moratorium or other similar laws relating to or affecting creditors' rights and
remedies generally. The execution and delivery of this Agreement do not, and the
consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and compliance
with the provisions hereof will not, (i) conflict with any of the provisions of
the Certificate of Incorporation or By-laws of the Company or the comparable
documents of any Company Subsidiary, (ii) except as set forth in Section 2.1(c)

acceleration of any obligation or loss of a material benefit under, require the
consent of any Person under, or result in the creation of a lien or other
encumbrance on any property or asset of the Company or any Company Subsidiary
pursuant to, any indenture or other agreement, permit, concession, franchise,
license or similar instrument or undertaking to which the Company or any of the
Company Subsidiaries is a party or by which the Company or any of the Company
Subsidiaries or any of their assets is bound or affected, or (iii) subject to
the governmental filings and other matters referred to in the following
sentence, contravene any law, rule or regulation of any state or of the United
States or any political subdivision thereof or therein, or any order, writ,
judgment, injunction, decree, determination or award currently in effect, the
conflict, breach, default or contravention of which, in the case of clauses (ii)
and (iii) above, individually or in the aggregate, would have, or is reasonably
likely to have, a Material Adverse Effect. No consent, approval or authorization
of, or declaration or filing with, or notice to, any governmental agency or regu
latory authority (a "Governmental Entity"), which has not been received or made
as of the date hereof, is required by or with respect to the Company or any of
the Company Subsidiaries in connection with the execution and delivery of this
Agreement by the Company or the consummation by the Company of the transactions
contemplated hereby, except for (A) the filing of premerger notification and
report forms under the Xxxx-Xxxxx-Xxxxxx Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as
amended (the "HSR Act"), (B) the filing with the Securities and Exchange
Commission (the "SEC") of such reports under the Securities Exchange Act of

Disclosure Schedule and (E) any applicable filings under state anti-takeover
laws, or filings, authorizations, consents or approvals the failure to make or
obtain which, individually or in the aggregate, would not have, and is not
reasonably likely to have, a Material Adverse Effect.
(d) SEC DOCUMENTS. (i) Each of the Company and Xxxxxxxx
Scotsman, Inc. has filed with the SEC all reports, schedules, forms, statements

(ii) as of their respective dates, (A) the SEC Documents complied in all
material respects with the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended (the "Securities Act"), or the Exchange Act, as the case may be, and the
rules and regulations of the SEC promulgated thereunder applicable to such SEC
Documents and (B) none of the SEC Documents contained any untrue statement of a
material fact or omitted to state any material fact required to be stated
therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the
circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. None of the SEC
Documents as revised or superseded by a later Filed SEC Document (as defined in
Section 2.1(f)) contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to
state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to
make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were
made, not misleading.
