The foregoing persons shall be collectively referred to as the "Parties." 146,
-------
Don, Loy, OMO and River Port are sometimes collectively referred to as the "OMO
---
Group." NAG, Ed and ▇▇▇▇▇ are sometimes collectively referred to as the "NAG
----- ---
Group."
-----
BACKGROUND
A. Pursuant to the Release and Settlement Agreement by and among NAG,
Ed, OMO, Don, Loy, River Port, and others dated effective February 2, 1999, and
the Settlement Agreement by and among ▇▇▇, NAG and others dated February 2,
1999, but not effective until March 31, 1999, (these two Settlement Agreements
may sometimes hereinafter be referred to as the "Prior Settlement Agreements"),
---------------------------
the parties thereto agreed to settle their differences which resulted, inter
alia, in the restructuring of the ownership of OMO, River Port, and Ozdon as
follows:
OMO
---
Membership Interests
Member and Sharing Ratios
------ ------------------
Don 51%
NAG 24.5%
146, as assignee 24.5%
River Port
----------
Membership Interests
Member and Sharing Ratios
------ ------------------
Don 50%
NAG 25%
146 25%
Ozdon
-----
Shareholders Stock Interests
------------ ---------------
146 50%
NAG 50%
B. The Prior Settlement Agreements were duly executed and enforceable by
all of the parties appearing therein.
C. A number of the transactions contemplated by the Prior Settlement
Agreements were never completed (the "Incomplete Transactions").
-----------------------
D. Although the Incomplete Transactions were never finalized in writing,
the undersigned acknowledge and agree that they have been duly bound by the
rights and obligations contemplated by the Incomplete Transactions since the
effective dates of the Prior Settlement Agreements and are
3
desirous of finalizing the documentation associated with the Incomplete
Transactions as part of this Settlement Agreement and that completion of the
Incomplete Transactions is a condition precedent to the completion of this
Agreement.
E. On February 4, 2000, 146 and the North Louisiana Group instituted a
lawsuit against NAG styled, "Arlington Farms, et al v. NAG, et al," Case No.
00-106-C-M2, United States District Court, Middle District (the "Arlington Farms
---------------
Litigation") which sought, inter alia, the memorialization and judicial
----------
recognition of the Incomplete Transactions specific to the North Louisiana Group
resulting from the prior Settlement Agreements and lost profits associated with
their ownership in Ozdon resulting from the Prior Settlement Agreements.
F. On August 15, 2000, 146 instituted an action against Ozdon in the
matter styled "The 146, L.L.C. v. Ozdon Investments, Inc.", Docket No. 34,928,
Div. "A", Parish of Pointe Coupee, ▇▇/▇▇/ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇ of
Louisiana (the "Opelousas Litigation").
--------------------
G. A notice of a meeting of the members of River Port and OMO was duly
called and convened on March 27, 2000, to address potential mergers whereby OMO
would be merged into DonLoy, L.L.C., with OMO as the surviving company and River
Port would be merged into LoyDon, L.L.C. with River Port being the surviving
company after such merger (the "Disputed Mergers").
----------------
H. The Disputed Mergers were approved by Don and 146 representing 75.5%
and 75% of the membership of OMO and River Port, respectively, on March 27,
2000, over the objection of NAG which claimed that the Disputed Mergers were
invalid because the Disputed Mergers allegedly required the unanimous consent of
the members of OMO and River Port pursuant to their organizational documents.
I. As a result of the Disputed Mergers, NAG's membership interest in
OMO and River Port was allegedly terminated in return for a cash offer of
$375,000.00 for its membership interest in OMO and $50,000.00 for its membership
interest in River Port. NAG never accepted these cash offers.
J. The Disputed Mergers were filed with the Louisiana Secretary of State
on March 28, 2000, and on April 18, 2000, respectively.
K. In light of NAG's disagreement with respect to the approval of the
Disputed Mergers, NAG instituted an action for preliminary injunction and
request for temporary restraining order in the matter styled, "NAG, et al v. Don
-----------------
et al," Civil Action ▇▇. ▇▇-▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇,
-----
on March 24, 2000 (the "Injunction Litigation").
---------------------
L. On March 24, 2000, the court in the Injunction Litigation denied NAG's
request for temporary restraining order and NAG subsequently filed a motion for
injunctive relief which was set for hearing on May 11, 2000.
4
M. The defendants in the Injunction Litigation, including Don, Loy,
146, OMO, and River Port, filed a motion to dismiss the injunction on grounds,
including but not limited to, the failure of the plaintiffs in the Injunction
Litigation to take advantage of mediation provisions contained in the Operating
Agreement of both OM and River Port. The plaintiffs in the Injunction Litigation
opposed such motion to dismiss. Nevertheless, the court ultimately granted the
motion to dismiss on October 17, 2000 and stayed the Injunction Litigation for a
period of ninety (90) days to provide the parties the opportunity to mediate
their disputes as required by the relevant Operating Agreements. Prior to the
court's order in this regard the plaintiffs and defendants in the Injunction
Litigation filed cross motions for summary judgment on the propriety of the
preliminary injunction which remain before the court.
N. In conjunction with the court's order described above, the parties
entered into settlement negotiations to attempt the complete resolution of their
disputes in the Injunction Litigation as well as the additional lawsuits
described herein which was memorialized in the Term Sheet dated January 5, 2001
(the "Term Sheet"), and of which this Agreement is designed to incorporate so
----------
that all disputes between the parties may be resolved.
O. The undersigned are desirous of settling all disputes between them
arising out of the lawsuits described herein and other matters described above
or related to such matters, except as provided in this Agreement and in
connection with the other Agreements to be executed herewith and the Incomplete
Transactions, and are desirous of releasing any and all claims that each may
have against the other.
P. Arlington Farms, Inc., ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇.
▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇, O. P. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇,
Marry ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇ and ▇▇▇▇▇▇ (collectively, the
"North Louisiana Group") assigned its rights under the Prior Settlement
---------------------
Agreements to 146.

on-the-ground survey of the Land (the "Survey") prepared by a professional land

------------
its objections (together with the basis for such objections), if any, to any
valid exceptions, claims, or defects revealed by the Title Commitment, Title
Documents and/or Survey, which would render Ozdon's title to the Land

unable to cure any of the Title Objections prior to Closing, OMO may, at its
option, either (i) accept title and all survey matters subject to the Title
Objections which remain uncured, without an adjustment in the Purchase Price
because of such Title Objections, in which event said Title Objections shall be
deemed to be waived for all purposes, or (ii) terminate this Agreement, giving
written notice thereof to NAG at or prior to the expiration of five (5) days
after NAG has given OMO written notice that it refuses or is unable
24
to cure the Title Objection, in which event this Agreement shall be of no
further force or effect and the parties shall have no further rights or
obligations one to the other hereunder, and NAG shall return to OMO the deposit
NAG received under the Term Sheet. If the notice described in item (ii) is not
timely given, then OMO shall be deemed to have waived its right to object to all
uncured Title Objections and they shall be deemed Permitted Exceptions. Any
exceptions to title or survey matters that are either accepted or waived by
Purchaser as aforesaid shall all be deemed "Permitted Exceptions." The "Intended
-------------------- --------
Purposes" shall be the operation of a duly qualified video poker truck stop
--------
facility. NAG shall cause the following to be canceled prior to the Effective
Date: Notice of Tax Assessment and Lien filed by the Louisiana Department of
