UNDERWRITING AGREEMENT
----------------------
__________, ____
To the Representatives of the
several Underwriters named in
the respective Terms Agreements
hereinafter described
Dear Sirs:
Motorola, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), proposes to issue
and sell, at up to an aggregate initial public offering price of $2,000,000,000,
or the equivalent thereof in one or more foreign currencies or composite
securities, including the euro, in one or more series, its (i) unsecured debt
securities (the "Debt Securities") which may be senior (the "Senior Securities")
or subordinated (the "Subordinated Securities"), (ii) warrants to purchase the
Debt Securities (the "Debt Warrants"), (iii) shares of its common stock, $3 par
value per share (the "Common Stock"), and (iv) warrants to purchase Common Stock
(the "Common Stock Warrants") in one or more offerings on terms determined at
the time of sale. The Debt Securities, Debt Warrants, Common Stock and Common
Stock Warrants may be offered separately or as a part of units consisting of one
or more such securities (the "Units"; and together with the Debt Securities,
Debt Warrants, Common Stock and Common Stock Warrants, the "Offered
Securities"). The Debt Securities and the Units containing the Debt Securities
(collectively, the "Offered Debt Securities") will be issued under one of
several indentures depending upon the particular issuance. The Senior Securities
will be issued under an indenture dated as of May 1, 1995 between the Company
and Bank One Trust Company, N.A. (as successor trustee to BNY Midwest Trust
Company and ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Trust and Savings Bank), as Trustee (the "Senior Indenture").
The
Subordinated Securities will be issued under an indenture between the Company
and a trustee to be named in the Terms Agreement (as defined below) relating to
any Subordinated Securities (the "Subordinated Indenture"). The Senior Indenture
and Subordinated Indenture are sometimes referred to as the "Indentures." The
Debt Warrants, Common Stock Warrants and Units containing either of the
foregoing (collectively, the "Warrants") will be issued under one or more
warrant agreements (the "Warrant Agreements") between the Company and the
Warrant Agent identified in such Warrant Agreement. Each issue of the Offered
Debt Securities and Warrants may vary, as applicable, as to the aggregate
principal amount, maturity date or dates, interest rate or rates and timing of
payments thereof, redemption provisions, conversion provisions, exercise
provisions and sinking fund requirements, if any, and any other variable terms
which the applicable Indenture or Warrant Agreement, as the case may be,
contemplates may be set forth in the Offered Debt Securities and Warrants as
issued from time to time.
Whenever the Company determines to make an offering of Offered Securities,
it will enter into an agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto
(the "Terms Agreement") providing for the sale of such Offered Securities to,
and the purchase and offering thereof by, the underwriter or underwriters named
therein (the "Underwriters" or "you", which terms shall include the underwriter
or underwriters named therein whether acting alone in the sale of the Offered
Securities or as members of an underwriting syndicate). The Terms Agreement
relating to each offering of the Offered Securities shall specify, where
applicable, the principal amount of the Offered Securities to be issued, the
name or names of the Underwriters participating in such offering (subject to
substitution as provided in Section 9 hereof) and the principal amount of the
Offered Securities which each severally agrees to purchase, the name or names of
the Underwriters acting as manager or co-managers in connection with such
offerings, if any (the "Representatives", which term shall include each
Underwriter in the event that there shall be no manager or co-managers), the
price at which the Offered Securities are to be purchased by the Underwriters
from the Company, the initial public offering price, the date, time and place of
delivery and payment, the number of shares to be issued in the case of the
issuance of the Common Stock, and, to the extent not otherwise specified in the
applicable Indenture or Warrant Agreement in the case of the issuance of the
Offered Debt Securities or Warrants, their terms. Each offering of the Offered
Securities will be governed by this Agreement, as supplemented by the applicable
Terms Agreement, and this Agreement
2
and such Terms Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon each
Underwriter participating in the offering of such Offered Securities.
The Company has filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the
"Commission") a registration statement on Form S-3 (No. 333-_____) relating to
(i) the Offered Securities and (ii) the Common Stock issuable upon conversion or
exercise of the Offered Securities in the case of the issuance of Offered
Securities convertible into or exercisable for Common Stock, and the offering
thereof from time to time in accordance with Rule 415 under the Securities Act
of 1933, as amended (the "1933 Act"), and has filed such amendments thereto as
may have been required to the date hereof. Such registration statement, as
amended, has been declared effective by the Commission, and the Indentures have
been qualified under the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended (the "1939
Act"). Such registration statement, as amended, and the prospectus relating to
the sale of the Offered Securities by the Company constituting a part thereof,
including all documents incorporated therein by reference, as from time to time
amended or supplemented pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended (the "1934 Act"), the 1933 Act or otherwise, are referred to herein as
the "Registration Statement" and the "Prospectus", respectively; provided,
however, that a supplement of the Prospectus contemplated by Section 3(a)(ix)
hereof (a "Prospectus Supplement") shall be deemed to have supplemented the
Prospectus only with respect to the offering of Offered Securities to which such
Prospectus Supplement relates. If the Company elects to rely on Rule 434 under
the rules and regulations of the 1933 Act (the "1933 Act Regulations"), all
references to the Prospectus shall be deemed to include, without limitation, the
form of prospectus and the abbreviated term sheet, taken together, provided to
the Underwriters by the Company in reliance on Rule 434 of the 1933 Act
Regulations (the "Rule 434 Prospectus"). If the Company files a registration
statement to register a portion of the Offered Securities and relies on Rule
462(b) of the 1933 Act Regulations for such registration statement to become
effective upon filing with the Commission (the "Rule 462 Registration
Statement"), then any reference to "Registration Statement" herein shall be
deemed to be to both the registration statement referred to above (No. 333-
_____) and the Rule 462 Registration Statement, as each such registration
statement may be amended pursuant to the 1933 Act.
SECTION 1. Representations and Warranties. (a) The Company represents
------------------------------
and warrants to each Underwriter as of the date hereof
3
and as of the date of the applicable Terms Agreement (such latter date being
hereinafter referred to as the "Representation Date") as follows:
(i) The Registration Statement has become effective under the 1933
Act and no stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration
Statement has been issued under the 1933 Act and no proceedings for that
purpose have been instituted or are pending or, to the knowledge of the
Company, are contemplated by the Commission. The Registration Statement and
the Prospectus, at the time the Registration Statement became effective and
as of the applicable Representation Date, complied in all material respects
with the 1933 Act and the 1933 Act Regulations. The Registration Statement,
at the time the Registration Statement became effective (or, if an
amendment to the Registration Statement or an annual report on Form 10-K
has been filed by the Company with the Commission subsequent to the
effectiveness of the Registration Statement, then at the time of the most
recent such filing) did not contain any untrue statement of a material fact
or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or
necessary to make the statements therein not misleading. The Prospectus, at
the time the Registration Statement became effective and as of the
applicable Representation Date, did not contain an untrue statement of a
material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make
the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they
were made, not misleading; provided, however, that the representations and
warranties in this subsection shall not apply to statements in or omissions
from the Registration Statement or Prospectus made in reliance upon and in
conformity with information furnished to the Company in writing by any
Underwriter, or on behalf of any Underwriter by the Representatives,
expressly for use in the Registration Statement or Prospectus.
(ii) The documents incorporated by reference in the Prospectus, at
the time they were or hereafter are filed with the Commission, complied and
will comply in all material respects with the requirements of the 1934 Act
and the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder (the "1934 Act
Regulations"), and, when read together and with the other information in
the Prospectus, at the time the Registration Statement and any amendments
thereof became or become effective under the 1933 Act and at each
Representation Date,
4
did not and will not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit
to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make
the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they are
made, not misleading.
(iii) The Company and its subsidiaries considered as a whole have not
sustained since the date of the latest financial statements included or
incorporated by reference in the Prospectus any material loss or
interference with its business from fire, explosion, flood or other
calamity, whether or not covered by insurance, or from any labor dispute or
court or governmental action, order or decree, otherwise than as set forth,
incorporated by reference or contemplated in the Prospectus; and, since the
respective dates as of which information is given in the Registration
Statement and the Prospectus, except as otherwise stated or incorporated
therein, there has not been any change in the capital stock (other than
upon exercise of outstanding stock options or upon conversion of
convertible securities outstanding on the date of the most recent balance
sheet included in the Prospectus or pursuant to the Company's employee
stock ownership plan or pursuant to the Company's employee stock purchase
plans or the Company's employee savings and profit sharing plan), any
significant increase in the long-term debt of the Company and its
subsidiaries taken as a whole, or any material adverse change, or any
development which the Company has reasonable cause to believe will involve
a prospective material adverse change, in or affecting the general affairs,
management, consolidated financial position, stockholders' equity or
results of operations of the Company and its subsidiaries considered as a
whole, or, other than the Company's regular quarterly dividend, any
dividend or distribution of any kind declared, paid or made by the Company
on any class of its capital stock.
(iv) The Company has been duly incorporated and is validly existing
as a corporation in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware,
with corporate power and authority to conduct its business as described in
the Prospectus with only such exceptions as are not material to the
business of the Company and its subsidiaries considered as a whole.
5
(v) The authorized capitalization is as set forth or incorporated by
reference in the Prospectus and all of the issued and outstanding shares of
capital stock of the Company have been duly authorized and validly issued
and are fully paid and non-assessable.
(vi) The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement, the
applicable Terms Agreement, the applicable Indenture in the case of the
issuance of the Offered Debt Securities, and the applicable Warrant
Agreement in the case of the issuance of the Warrants, and the consummation
of the transactions contemplated herein and therein have been duly
authorized by all necessary corporate action and will not conflict with or
constitute a breach of, or a default under, any material contract,
indenture, mortgage, loan agreement, note, lease or other agreement or
instrument to which the Company is a party or by which the Company is
bound; nor will such action result in a violation of the provisions of the
Company's Restated Certificate of Incorporation or bylaws of the Company,
as amended, or any applicable law, rule, regulation, judgment, order or
administrative or court decree.
(vii) Other than (a) as set forth, incorporated by reference, or
contemplated in the Prospectus and (b) litigation incident to the kind of
business conducted by the Company and its subsidiaries, which in the case
of those items in (b) individually and in the aggregate is not material to
the Company and its subsidiaries considered as a whole, there are no legal
or governmental proceedings pending to which the Company and its
subsidiaries is a party or of which any property of the Company or any of
its subsidiaries is the subject which, if determined adversely to the
Company or its subsidiaries, the Company has reasonable cause to believe
would individually or in the aggregate have a material adverse effect on
the consolidated financial position, stockholders' equity or results of
operations of the Company and its subsidiaries considered as a whole; and,
to the best of the Company's knowledge, no such proceedings are threatened
or contemplated by governmental authorities or threatened by others.
(viii) No consent, approval or authorization of any court or
governmental authority or agency is necessary in connection with the sale
of the Offered Securities or the consummation of the other transactions
contemplated by this
6
Agreement, the applicable Terms Agreement, the applicable Warrant Agreement
in the case of the issuance of the Warrants, or the applicable Indenture in
the case of the issuance of the Offered Debt Securities, except as may be
required under the 1933 Act or 1933 Act Regulations, the 1934 Act or 1934
Act Regulations, the 1939 Act or state securities laws.

pursuant to this Agreement have been duly authorized, and when issued,

notify the Representatives immediately, and confirm the notice in writing,
(A) of the effectiveness of any amendment to the Registration Statement,

11
(E) of the suspension of the qualification of (i) the Offered Securities,
or (ii) the shares of Common Stock (including the Rights associated
therewith) issuable upon conversion or exercise of the Offered Securities,
in the case of the issuance of Offered Securities convertible into or
exercisable for Common Stock, for offering or sale in any jurisdiction, or
the initiation or threatening of any proceedings for any such purpose, and
(F) of the issuance by the Commission of any stop order suspending the
effectiveness of the Registration Statement or any order preventing or
suspending the use of the Prospectus or any preliminary prospectus
supplement, or the initiation of any proceedings for any such purpose. The
Company will use every reasonable effort to prevent the issuance of any
stop order or any order preventing or suspending the use of the Prospectus
or any preliminary prospectus supplement or suspending such qualification,
and, in the event of the issuance of a stop order or any order preventing
or suspending the use of the Prospectus or any preliminary prospectus
supplement or suspending such qualification, to obtain the lifting thereof
at the earliest possible moment.
(ii) From the date of the applicable Terms Agreement, and for so long
as a Prospectus is required to be delivered in connection with the sale of
the Offered Securities covered by such Terms Agreement, the Company will
give the Representatives notice of its intention to file or prepare any
amendment to the Registration Statement (including any post-effective
amendment) or any amendment or supplement to the Prospectus (including any
revised prospectus which the Company proposes for use by you in connection
with the offering of the Offered Securities which differs from the
prospectus on file with the Commission at the time the Registration
Statement became effective, whether or not such revised prospectus is
required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) of the 1933 Act Regulations,
or any abbreviated term sheet prepared in reliance on Rule 434 of the 1933
Act Regulations) and will furnish them with copies of any such amendment or
supplement or other documents proposed to be filed a reasonable amount of
time prior to such proposed filing or use, as the case may be, and will not
file any such amendment or supplement or use any such prospectus to which
you or your counsel shall reasonably object.
12
(iii) The Company, during the period when the Prospectus is required
to be delivered under the 1933 Act, will file promptly all reports and any
definitive proxy or information statements required to be filed by the
Company with the Commission pursuant to Sections 13(a), 13(c), 14 or 15(d)
of the ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇.
(iv) The Company will deliver to each of the Representatives two
copies of the Registration Statement as originally filed and of each
amendment thereto (including exhibits filed therewith or incorporated by
reference therein and, if applicable, documents incorporated by reference
into the Prospectus pursuant to Item 12 of Form S-3 under the ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇) and
will also deliver to the Representatives, from time to time during the
period when the Prospectus is required to be delivered under the 1933 Act
or the 1934 Act, as many conformed copies of the Registration Statement as
originally filed and of each amendment thereto (without exhibits) as the
Representatives may reasonably request.
(v) Prior to 1:00 p.m., New York City time, on the business day
next succeeding the date of the applicable Terms Agreement and from time to
time during the period when the Prospectus is required to be delivered
under the 1933 Act or the 1934 Act, the Company will furnish to the
Representatives in New York City such number of copies of the Prospectus
(as amended or supplemented) as the Representatives may reasonably request
for the purposes contemplated by the 1933 Act or the 1934 Act or the
respective applicable rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder.
(vi) The Company will comply with the 1933 Act and the 1933 Act
Regulations and the 1934 Act and the 1934 Act Regulations so as to permit
the completion of the distribution of the Offered Securities as
contemplated in the applicable Terms Agreement and in the Registration
Statement and Prospectus. If at any time when the Prospectus is required
by the 1933 Act to be delivered in connection with sales of the Offered
Securities any event shall occur as a result of which it is necessary to
amend or supplement the Prospectus in order to make the Prospectus not
misleading in the light of the circumstances existing at the time it is
delivered to a purchaser, the Company will forthwith amend or supplement
the Prospectus (in form and substance satisfactory to your counsel) so
that, as so amended or supplemented, the
13
Prospectus will not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit
to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein,
in light of the circumstances existing at the time it is delivered to a
purchaser, not misleading, and the Company will furnish to the
Representatives a reasonable number of copies of such amendment or
supplement.
(vii) The Company will endeavor, in cooperation with you, to qualify
the Offered Securities and, in the case of the issuance of Offered
Securities convertible into or exercisable for Common Stock, the shares of
Common Stock (including the Rights associated therewith) issuable upon
conversion or exercise, as the case may be, for offering and sale under the
applicable securities laws of such states and other jurisdictions as the
Representatives may designate; provided, however, that the Company shall
not be obligated to qualify as a foreign corporation in any jurisdiction in
which it is not so qualified or to file a general consent to service of
process in any jurisdiction. In each jurisdiction in which the Offered
Securities, or in the case of the issuance of Offered Securities
convertible into or exercisable for Common Stock, such shares of Common
Stock (including the Rights associated therewith), have been so qualified,
the Company will file such statements and reports as may be required by the
laws of such jurisdiction to continue such qualification in effect for so
long as may be required to complete such distribution of such Offered
Securities.
(viii) With respect to each sale of Offered Securities, the Company
agrees that it will make generally available to its security holders as
soon as practicable, but not later than 90 days after the close of the
period covered thereby, earnings statements (in form complying with the
provisions of Rule 158 under the ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇) covering a twelve-month period
beginning, in each case, not later than the first day of the Company's
fiscal quarter next following the "effective date" (as defined in said Rule
158) of the Registration Statement relating to such Offered Securities.
(ix) If the Company elects not to rely on Rule 434 under the 1933
Act Regulations, immediately following the execution of each Terms
Agreement, the Company will prepare a Prospectus Supplement setting forth,
where applicable, the principal amount or number of shares, as the case may
be, of the Offered
14
Securities covered thereby, the name or names of the Underwriters (subject
to substitution as provided in Section 9 hereof) and the principal amount
or number of shares, as the case may be, of the Offered Securities which
each severally has agreed to purchase, the name or names of the
Representatives, the price at which the Offered Securities are to be
purchased by the Underwriters from the Company, the initial public offering
price, the selling concession and reallowance, if any, the other terms of
the Offered Securities to the extent not otherwise specified in the
applicable Indenture or Warrant Agreement, as the case may be, in the event
the Offered Securities are Offered Debt Securities or Warrants, and such
other information as the Representatives and the Company deem appropriate
in connection with the offering of the Offered Securities. The Company will
promptly transmit copies of the Prospectus Supplement to the Commission for
filing pursuant to Rule 424 of the 1933 Act Regulations and will furnish to
the Underwriters named therein as many copies of the Prospectus and such
Prospectus Supplement as the Representatives shall reasonably request. If
the Company elects to rely on Rule 434 of the 1933 Act Regulations,
immediately following the execution of each Terms Agreement, the Company
will (i) prepare an abbreviated term sheet that complies with the
requirements of Rule 434 of the 1933 Act Regulations, (ii) provide the
Underwriters with copies of the form of the Rule 434 Prospectus in such
number as the Underwriters may reasonably request and (iii) file or
transmit for filing with the Commission the form of Prospectus complying
with Rule 434(c)(2) of the 1933 Act Regulations in accordance with Rule
424(b) of the 1933 Act Regulations by the close of business in New York on
the business day immediately succeeding the date of the Terms Agreement.
(b) In the event the Offered Securities are Offered Debt Securities, Debt
Warrants or Units containing Debt Warrants, the Company additionally covenants
with each Underwriter that the Company will not contract to sell or announce or
make any offering, sale or other disposition of any debt securities of the

any time at or prior to the applicable Closing Time, and such termination shall
be without liability of any party to any other party except as provided in
Section 4 and except that Sections 6 and 7 shall survive any such termination
and remain in full force and effect.
SECTION 6. Indemnification. (a) The Company agrees to indemnify and
---------------
hold harmless each Underwriter and each person, if any, who controls any
Underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act as follows:
(i) against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage and expense
whatsoever, as incurred, arising out of any untrue statement or alleged
untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement
(or any amendment thereto), or the omission or alleged omission therefrom
of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the
statements therein not misleading or arising out of any untrue statement or
alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any preliminary
prospectus or the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement, including any
preliminary prospectus supplement, thereto) or the omission or alleged
omission therefrom of a material fact necessary in order to make the
statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were
made, not misleading;
(ii) against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage and expense
whatsoever, as incurred, to the extent of the aggregate amount paid in
settlement of any litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any
governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, or of any claim
whatsoever based upon any such untrue statement or omission or any such
alleged untrue statement or omission, if such settlement is effected with
the written consent of the Company; and
(iii) against any and all expense whatsoever, as incurred (including,
subject to Section 6(c) hereof, the fees and disbursements of counsel
chosen by you), reasonably incurred in investigating, preparing or
defending against any
31
litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency
or body, commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever based upon any
such untrue statement or omission, or any such alleged untrue statement or
omission, to the extent that any such expense is not paid under (i) or (ii)
above;
provided, however, that this indemnity agreement does not apply to any loss,
liability, claim, damage or expense to the extent arising out of any untrue
statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission made in reliance
upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by any
Underwriter through the Representatives expressly for use in the Registration
Statement (or any amendment thereto) or any preliminary prospectus or the
Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement, including any preliminary prospectus
supplement, thereto); and further provided that this indemnity agreement does
not apply to any loss, liability, claim, damage or expense arising out of any
untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission made in a
preliminary prospectus or preliminary prospectus supplement, as the case may be,
but eliminated or remedied in the Prospectus if a copy of the Prospectus
(excluding documents incorporated therein by reference) was not delivered by you
to the person asserting the claim arising from such untrue statement or omission
or such alleged untrue statement or omission, at or prior to the time required
by the ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇.
(b) Each Underwriter severally agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the
Company, its directors, each of the Company's officers who signed the
Registration Statement, and each person, if any, who controls the Company within
the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act against any and all loss, liability,
claim, damage and expense described in the indemnity contained in subsection (a)
of this Section, as incurred, but only with respect to untrue statements or
omissions, or alleged untrue statements or omissions, made in the Registration
Statement (or any amendment thereto) or any preliminary prospectus or the
Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement, including any preliminary prospectus
supplement, thereto) in reliance upon and in conformity with written information
furnished to the Company by such Underwriter through the Representatives
expressly for use in the Registration Statement (or any amendment thereto) or
such preliminary prospectus or the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement,
including any preliminary prospectus supplement, thereto).
32
(c) Each indemnified party shall give notice as promptly as reasonably
practicable to each indemnifying party of any action commenced against it in
respect of which indemnity may be sought hereunder, but failure to so notify an
indemnifying party shall not relieve such indemnifying party from any liability
which it may have otherwise than on account of this indemnity agreement. In
case any such action shall be brought against any indemnified party and it shall
notify the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying
party shall be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it shall
wish, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, to assume
the defense thereof, with counsel satisfactory to such indemnified party (who
shall not, except with the consent of the indemnified party, be counsel to the
indemnifying party), and, after notice from the indemnifying party to such
indemnified party of its election so to assume the defense thereof, the
indemnifying party shall not be liable to such indemnified party under such
subsection for any legal expenses of other counsel or any other expenses, in
each case subsequently incurred by such indemnified party, in connection with
the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation. In no event
shall the indemnifying parties be liable for fees and expenses of more than one
counsel (in addition to any local counsel) separate from their own counsel for
all indemnified parties in connection with any one action or separate but
similar or related actions in the same jurisdiction arising out of the same
general allegations or circumstances.
SECTION 7. Contribution. In order to provide for just and equitable
------------
contribution in circumstances in which the indemnity agreement provided for in
Section 6 is for any reason held to be unenforceable by the indemnified parties
although applicable in accordance with its terms, the Company and you shall
contribute to the aggregate losses, liabilities, claims, damages and expenses of
the nature contemplated by said indemnity agreement incurred by the Company and
you, as incurred, in such proportions that you are responsible for that portion
represented by the percentage that the underwriting discount appearing on the
cover page of the Prospectus bears to the initial public offering price
appearing thereon and the Company is responsible for the balance; provided,
however, that no person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the
meaning of Section 11(f) of the ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇) shall be entitled to contribution from
any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. For
purposes of this Section, each person, if any, who controls you within the
meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act shall have the same right to contribution
as you, and each
33
director of the Company, each officer of the Company who signed the Registration
Statement, and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning
of Section 15 of the 1933 Act shall have the same rights to contribution as the
Company.
SECTION 8. Representations, Warranties and Agreements to Survive Delivery.
--------------------------------------------------------------
All representations, warranties and agreements contained in this Agreement and
the applicable Terms Agreement, or contained in certificates of officers of the
Company submitted pursuant hereto, shall remain operative and in full force and
effect, regardless of any investigation (or any statement as to the results
thereof) made by or on behalf of any Underwriter or any controlling person, or
by or on behalf of the Company, and shall survive delivery of the Offered
Securities to the Underwriters.
SECTION 9. Default. If one or more of the Underwriters shall fail at the
-------
applicable Closing Time to purchase the Offered Securities which it or they are
obligated to purchase under the applicable Terms Agreement (the "Defaulted
Securities"), then the Representative shall have the right, within 24 hours
thereafter, to make arrangements for one or more of the non-defaulting
Underwriters, or any other underwriters, to purchase all, but not less than all,
of the Defaulted Securities in such amounts as may be agreed upon and upon the
terms herein set forth. If, however, during such 24 hours the Representatives
shall not have completed such arrangements for the purchase of all of the
Defaulted Securities, then:
(a) if the aggregate initial public offering price of the Defaulted
Securities does not exceed 10% of the aggregate initial public offering
price of the Offered Securities to be purchased pursuant to such Terms
Agreement, the non-defaulting Underwriters shall be obligated to purchase
the full amount thereof in the proportions that their respective
underwriting obligations under the applicable Terms Agreement (including
this Agreement as incorporated by reference therein) bear to the
underwriting obligations of all such non-defaulting Underwriters; or
(b) if the aggregate initial public offering price of the Defaulted
Securities exceeds 10% of the aggregate initial public offering price of
the Offered Securities to be purchased pursuant to such Terms Agreement,
such Terms Agreement (including this Agreement as incorporated by
34
reference therein) shall terminate, without any liability on the part of
any non-defaulting Underwriter or the Company.
No action taken pursuant to this Section shall relieve any defaulting
Underwriter from liability in respect of any default of such Underwriter under
the applicable Terms Agreement or this Agreement.
In the event of a default by any Underwriter or Underwriters as set forth
in this Section, either the Representatives or the Company shall have the right
to postpone the applicable Closing Time for a period not exceeding seven days in
order that any required changes in the Registration Statement, Prospectus or
applicable Prospectus Supplement, or in any other documents or arrangements, may
be effected.
SECTION 10. Notices. All notices and other communications hereunder shall
-------
be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given if mailed or
transmitted by any standard form of telecommunication. Notices to the
Underwriters shall be directed to you as provided in the applicable Terms
Agreement; notices to the Company shall be directed to it at ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇
▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇; Attention: Treasurer.
SECTION 11. Parties. This Agreement and the applicable Terms Agreement
-------
shall each inure to the benefit of and be binding upon you, the Company and your
and the Company's respective successors. Nothing expressed or mentioned in this
Agreement or the applicable Terms Agreement is intended or shall be construed to
give any person, firm or corporation, other than you, the Company and your and
the Company's respective successors and the controlling persons and officers and
directors referred to in Sections 6, 7 and 8 and their heirs and legal
representatives, any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or in
respect of this Agreement or the applicable Terms Agreement or any provision
herein or therein contained. This Agreement and the applicable Terms Agreement
and all conditions and provisions hereof and thereof are intended to be for the
sole and exclusive benefit of you, the Company and your and the Company's
respective successors, and said controlling persons and officers and directors
and their heirs and legal representatives, and for the benefit of no other
person, firm or corporation. No purchaser of the Offered Securities from you
shall be deemed to be a successor by reason merely of such purchase.
35

----------------------
Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the
State of New York applicable to agreements made and to be performed in said
State. Specified times of day refer to New York City time.
