SHARE EXCHANGE AGREEMENT
This Share Exchange Agreement (this "Agreement") is made and entered
into as of the 30th day of June, 1998, by and between American Physicians
Service Group, Inc., a Texas corporation ("APS") and ▇▇▇▇ ▇. ▇▇▇▇▇, M.D.
(the "Shareholder").
R E C I T A L S:
WHEREAS, pursuant to that certain Agreement and Plan of Reorganization
(the "Merger Agreement") entered into by Shareholder of even date herewith and
the other contracts and agreements to which Shareholder was, or was to be, a
party as contemplated in the Merger Agreement (the Merger Agreement and all such
other contracts and agreements are hereinafter referred to collectively as the
"Acquisition Documents"), Shareholder has acquired or will acquire 33,934 shares
(the "PM Shares") of the $0.001 par value per share common stock of Syntera
HealthCare Corporation, a Texas corporation ("Syntera") for a consideration of
$5 per PM Share (in aggregate, the "Exchange Value"); and
WHEREAS, APS has agreed, on the terms and subject to the conditions
hereof, to exchange certain shares of its $0.10 par value per share common stock
("APS Common") for the PM Shares.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and other good and
valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby
acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:
1. CONDITIONS TO EXCHANGE RIGHT. In addition to the other terms and
conditions contained in this Agreement, Shareholder shall only be entitled to
exchange the PM Shares for shares of APS Common if each of the following
conditions has been satisfied:
(a) There shall not have been, on or before July 1, 2000 (the
"Determination Date"), any registered public offering of the common stock of
Syntera, or any other transaction or event pursuant to which shares of Syntera
of the same class as the PM Shares shall have become publicly traded at a per
share price of greater than $5; and
(b) Shareholder shall not be, or have been, at any time on or
prior to the date of the closing of any exchange of stock pursuant to this
Agreement (the "Closing Date"), materially in breach of, or default under, this
Agreement, any of the Acquisition Documents or any other contract or agreement
to which Shareholder and Syntera and/or APS are parties, and Shareholder shall
not have threatened to materially breach or default under this Agreement, any of
the Acquisition Documents or any such other contract or agreement; and
(c) At the Closing Date, Shareholder has all requisite legal
capacity and authority to engage in the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement, is the owner of all the PM Shares, and the PM Shares are free of any
and all liens, claims or encumbrances of any kind whatsoever; and
2
(d) At or before the Closing Date, Syntera shall not be, or
have been, a party to any merger, consolidation or similar transaction, or
agreement with respect thereto, pursuant to
3
which Syntera was not or would not be, the named surviving entity after such
merger, consolidation or other transaction.
2. EXCHANGE NOTICE. In the event all of the conditions described in
Section 1 are satisfied as of the Determination Date and Shareholder elects to
exercise his right to exchange his PM Shares for shares of APS Common,
Shareholder shall provide written notice thereof (the "Exchange Notice") to APS,
which Exchange Notice must be received by APS not later than the date (the
"Expiration Date") which is ninety (90) calendar days after the Determination
Date. In the event (i) any of the conditions required for an exchange to be
permissible, as described in Section 1 above, fail to be satisfied on or prior
to the Determination Date, or (ii) any of the conditions specified in
subsections (b), (c) and (d) of Section 1 fail to be satisfied on or prior to
the Closing Date, or (iii) APS fails to receive an Exchange Notice from
Shareholder on or prior to the Expiration Date; then, in any such case, all of
Shareholder's rights under this Agreement shall automatically terminate and be
of no further force or effect whatsoever.
3. SHARE CONVERSION. Shareholder's right to exchange his PM Shares
hereunder shall apply as to all, but not less than all, of the PM Shares. In the
event Shareholder has complied with all of the conditions allowing for an
exchange pursuant to this Agreement, the closing of any such exchange (the
"Closing") shall occur at the offices of APS in Austin, Texas, on such day and
at such time as the parties hereto may mutually agree upon, or in the failure to
so agree, at 10:00 a.m. Austin, Texas time on the first business day that falls
thirty (30) days after the later of (i) the Expiration Date, or (ii) in the
event a Lock-Up Period (as hereinafter defined) is imposed pursuant to Section 4
hereof, the day on which such Lock-Up Period ends.. For purposes hereof, any
additional shares of Syntera stock of any class which Shareholder obtains
4
pursuant to stock dividends, stock splits, reverse stock splits or
recapitalizations to which Syntera or the PM Shares are subject after the date
this Agreement was
5
originally entered into as first written above shall also be considered to be
included in the PM Shares; however, no adjustment or modification will be made
to the Exchange Value as a result of any such transaction. At the Closing,
Shareholder shall be entitled to receive such shares of APS Common as is
determined by dividing the Exchange Value by the average of the "bid" and "ask"
prices for APS Common as quoted by the National Association of Securities
Dealers Automated Quotation System at the close of trading on each of the last
five (5) business days immediately preceding the Closing Date.
At the Closing, Shareholder shall tender his share certificate(s) for
all of the PM Shares, duly endorsed in blank, to APS, and shall also provide APS
with an executed blank stock power, in form and substance reasonably acceptable
to APS, wherein Shareholder represents and warrants to APS (i) that Shareholder
has all necessary legal capacity, power and authority to engage in the
transactions contemplated hereby, and (ii) that Shareholder owns all interests
in and to the PM Shares and that the PM Shares are being transferred to APS free
and clear of all liens, claims or encumbrances of any kind whatsoever.
The shares of APS Common that Shareholder receives in the exchange are
hereinafter referred to as the "New APS Shares." The parties acknowledge and
agree that Shareholder shall receive a whole number of shares of APS Common
only, and that any fractional share amounts resulting from the foregoing
conversion calculation shall be rounded up or down, as the case may be, to the
next whole number of shares. APS shall be under no obligation to pay any cash or
other amounts with respect to any fractional share amounts, or to issue any
fractional share amounts to Shareholder. At the Closing, Shareholder shall
either receive a share certificate for all
6
its New APS Shares or, if APS'
transfer agent is unable to produce such certificate by the Closing Date, will
receive a copy of a registered letter sent from APS to the transfer agent
instructing the transfer agent to deliver such certificate in the name of
Shareholder directly to Shareholder or Shareholder's designee.
4. NEW APS SHARES TRANSFERABILITY. APS will have registered the New APS
Shares with the Securities and Exchange Commission, and made such other filings
and taken such other steps as necessary, so that Shareholder may immediately
sell, or otherwise convey, the New APS Shares without restriction (except as
otherwise provided below). Shareholder agrees to cooperate fully and in all
respects with APS in connection with any such registration, whether such
cooperation is requested before or after the Determination Date. Failure of
Shareholder to cooperate fully, including without limitation, promptly providing
complete and accurate information to APS, in connection with the registration of
any APS Common shares, whether such cooperation and/or information is requested
before or after the Determination Date or before or after Shareholder delivers
any Exchange Notice, shall automatically terminate Shareholder's rights under
this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, in
the event that APS is in the process, either at the Closing Date or at the
Determination Date, of registering and/or selling any of its capital stock in or
pursuant to any underwritten public offering, upon the written request of the
lead underwriter involved therein, Shareholder agrees, and shall then agree in
writing in form and substance reasonably acceptable to APS, to not sell, attempt
to sell, or solicit or accept any offers to sell or otherwise convey, any of the
New APS Shares for such period of time (not to exceed one hundred eighty (180)
days) as may be requested by such lead underwriter (the "Lock-Up Period").
