(a) The Shares are owned solely by Sellers and are held by Sellers free
and clear of all liens or encumbrances. None of the Shares is subject to any

(b) Each Seller has the capacity to enter into this Agreement and has
the full right, power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement and to
consummate the Transactions. This Agreement has been duly and validly executed
and delivered by Sellers and constitutes a valid and binding agreement of each
Seller enforceable against each Seller in accordance with its terms, except as
the same may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other laws
relating to or affecting the enforceability of creditors' rights generally, and
except that the remedy of specific performance or similar equitable relief may
be subject to equitable defenses and to the discretion of the court before which
enforcement is sought.
(c) Except as set forth on the Company Disclosure Schedule (as defined
in the Securities Purchase Agreement) or to the actual knowledge of Sellers,
neither the execution and delivery of this Agreement nor the sale by Sellers of
the Shares pursuant to this Agreement will (i) conflict with or result in any
breach of any provision of the Company's certificate of incorporation or by-laws
or (ii) result in a default (or give rise to any right to termination,
cancellation or acceleration) under any of the terms, conditions or provisions
of any note, bond, mortgage, indenture, agreement, lease or other instrument or
obligation to which Sellers or the Company is a party or by which Sellers' or
the Company's assets may be bound or (iii) violate any order, writ, injunction
or decree applicable to Sellers or the Company or any of their respective
assets.
9.2 Purchaser represents and warrants to Sellers as follows:
(a) Purchaser has full power and authority to execute and deliver this
Agreement and to consummate the transaction contemplated hereby.
(b) This Agreement has been duly and validly executed and delivered by
Purchaser and constitutes a valid and binding agreement of Purchaser enforceable
against Purchaser in accordance with its terms, except as the same may be
limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other laws relating to or
affecting the enforceability of creditors' rights generally, and except that the
remedy of specific performance or similar equitable relief may be subject to
equitable defenses and to the discretion of the court before which enforcement
is sought.
(c) Neither the execution and delivery of this Agreement nor the
purchase by Purchaser of the Shares pursuant to this Agreement will (i) result
in a default (or give rise to any right to termination, cancellation or
acceleration) under any of the terms, conditions or provisions of any note,
bond, mortgage, indenture, agreement, lease or other instrument or obligation to
which Purchaser is a party or by which Purchaser or any of Purchaser's assets
may be bound or (ii) violate any order, writ, injunction or decree applicable to
Purchaser or any of its respective assets.
(d) Purchaser is an "accredited investor" as defined under Regulation D
("Regulation D") promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
------------
"Securities Act"). Purchaser can bear the economic risks of an investment in the
--------------
Shares for an indefinite period of time.
36
Purchaser has adequate means of providing for Purchaser's current needs and
possible personal contingencies and has no present or contemplated need for
liquidity of Purchaser's investment in the Shares to satisfy any existing or
contemplated undertaking, need or indebtedness.
(e) Purchaser has been represented by such advisors, each of whom has
been personally selected by Purchaser, as Purchaser has found necessary to
consult concerning the Transactions, and such representation has included an
examination of applicable documents and an analysis of all financial, corporate
and securities law aspects of the Agreement and the transaction contemplated
hereby.
(f) Purchaser is familiar with the Company and its business and
financial condition. Purchaser and its advisors, prior to the date hereof, have
had the opportunity to ask questions of, and to receive answers from, the
officers and directors of the Company or their authorized representatives and
access to obtain any information, documents, financial statements, records and
books, (i) relative to the Company, its business and an investment in the
Shares, and (ii) necessary to verify the accuracy of any information, documents,
financial statements, records and books furnished. All materials and information
requested by Purchaser, if any, including any information requested to verify
any information furnished have been made available and examined.
(g) Purchaser understands that some, if not all, of the Shares have
not been registered under the Securities Act, nor pursuant to the provisions of
the securities laws or other laws if any other applicable jurisdictions, in
reliance on exemptions set forth in Sections 3 and/or 4 of the Securities Act,
Regulation D and the laws and regulations of such jurisdictions. Purchaser is
fully aware that, to the extent any Shares have not already been registered
under the Securities Act, the Shares are to be sold to Purchaser by Sellers in
reliance upon such exemptions based upon Purchaser's representations,
warranties, and agreements set forth herein. Purchaser is fully aware of, to the
extent any Shares have not already been registered under the Securities Act, the
restrictions on sale, transferability and assignment of such unregistered
Shares, and that Purchaser must bear the economic risk of Purchaser's investment
in such Shares for an indefinite period of time because such Shares have not yet
been registered under the Securities Act or the securities laws of any state. To
the extent any Shares have not already been registered under the Securities Act,
Purchaser, therefore, agrees that it will not offer or sell any such
unregistered Shares unless and until they are subsequently registered under the
Securities Act and applicable state securities laws, or unless exemptions from
such registration requirements are available. Purchaser acknowledges that the
certificates representing any unregistered Shares will contain a legend
substantially as follows:
"THE SECURITIES WHICH ARE REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE
HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933,
AS AMENDED, AND MAY NOT BE SOLD, TRANSFERRED, HYPOTHECATED
OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF UNTIL A REGISTRATION STATEMENT WITH
RESPECT THERETO IS DECLARED EFFECTIVE UNDER SUCH ACT, OR THE
COMPANY RECEIVES AN OPINION OF COUNSEL FOR THE COMPANY THAT
AN EXEMPTION FROM THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF SUCH ACT
IS AVAILABLE."
(h) Purchaser is acquiring the Shares for Purchaser's own
account and not for the account of others. Purchaser is acquiring the Shares for
investment purposes only and not with a view to or for the transfer, assignment,
resale or distribution thereof, in whole or in part, and the Purchaser is not
participating directly or indirectly in a distribution or transfer of the
Shares, or in the underwriting of any
37
such distribution or transfer of the Shares, nor is Purchaser acting in any way
that would constitute Purchaser as an underwriter within the meaning of the
Securities Act, of the Shares. Purchaser has no present plans to enter into such
contract, undertaking, agreement or arrangement.
10. Covenants.
---------
10.1 Further Assurances. Purchaser and each Seller agrees to execute and
------------------
deliver such other documents, certificates, agreements and other writings and to
take such other actions as are reasonably necessary or desirable in order to (i)
cause the conditions to their respective obligations under Section 5 of this
Agreement to be satisfied on or prior to the Closing and (ii) consummate or
expeditiously implement the Transactions. Neither Purchaser nor any Seller shall
take any action, or omit to take any action, which would result in a violation
of any of the representations and warranties set forth in Section 3 hereof.
Purchaser and Sellers shall promptly notify each other in writing of any event
or fact which represents or is likely to cause a breach of any of their
respective representations, warranties, covenants or agreements. From and after
the date hereof Sellers shall execute and deliver to Purchaser such further
instruments and take such action and deliver such other documents as may
reasonably be required to carry out the provisions of this Agreement, including,
but not limited to the provisions of Sections 4.2 and 4.3.
10.2 Proxy. Sellers hereby grant to Purchaser an irrevocable proxy and
-----
right to vote the Additional Shares, as the Purchaser determines in its sole
discretion, on any matter for a period of three (3) years from the Closing. The
right of Purchaser to vote the Additional Shares shall include, but not be
limited to, the right to vote for or against directors, for or against any
proposal of merger or consolidation or for or against any reorganization of the
Company. Sellers acknowledge that, concurrently with the execution of this
Agreement, he has executed and delivered to Purchaser an Irrevocable Proxy, in
the form attached hereto as Exhibit B, granting such right. Such proxy will not
---------
become effective until the Closing and will expire upon the earlier of three (3)
years from the Closing or upon a sale of such Additional Shares to a bona fide
third party buyer in an open market transaction.
10.3 Right of First Refusal.
----------------------
(a) For a period of two years from the Closing, if any Seller (an
"ROFR Seller") proposes to sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of any of the
-----------
Additional Shares owned by him or her, the ROFR Seller shall give written notice
("ROFR Notice") to Purchaser at least two (2) trading days prior to the proposed
-----------
closing date of such sale or transfer. The ROFR Notice shall describe in
reasonable detail the proposed sale or transfer including, without limitation,
the number of Additional Shares to be sold or transferred by the ROFR Seller
("Offered Securities"), the nature of such sale or transfer, the consideration
------------------
to be paid and the name and address of each prospective purchaser or transferee
(except the name and address shall not be required in the case of a bona fide

the rights set forth in paragraph (b) below.
(b) The Purchaser shall have the right, exercisable no later than two
(2) trading days after receipt of the ROFR Notice, to purchase all of the
Offered Securities of the ROFR Seller on the same terms and conditions as set

within the aforesaid two (2) trading day period (such purchase to be consummated
on the second business day after delivery of such notice).
(c) If Purchaser has not exercised its right to purchase all of the
Offered Securities within the period specified in paragraph (b) above, the ROFR
Seller may, not later than ten (10) business days following delivery to
Purchaser of the ROFR Notice, conclude a transfer of any or all of the Offered
Securities on terms and conditions not less favorable to it from those described
in the ROFR Notice. Any
38
proposed transfer on terms and conditions less favorable to it from those
described in the ROFR Notice, as well as any subsequent proposed transfer of any
other Additional Shares by the ROFR Seller, shall again be subject to the
purchase rights of Purchaser and shall require compliance by the ROFR Seller
with the procedures described in this Section 4.3.
-----------
(d) Purchaser's exercise or non-exercise of its right to purchase
Offered Securities shall not adversely affect its rights under this Section 4.3
-----------
as to subsequent sales of Additional Shares.
(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section
-------
4.3, Sellers collectively shall have the right to sell, without compliance with
---
the right of first refusal restrictions otherwise contained in this Section 4.3,

-----------
term to any bona fide third party buyer in an open market transaction. Upon
consummation of such Deminimis Share Transaction, Seller shall provide Purchaser
notice of such sale and the number of shares sold thereunder.
(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section
-------
4.3, in any given month during the right of first refusal term, the number of
---

by the ninety-day volume restrictions provided in Rule 144 of the Securities
Act, such volume limitation being divided by a factor of three (3); provided,
--------
however, that if on any given day during the right of first refusal term, the
-------
aggregate trading volume of common stock, par value $.02 per share, of the
Company exceeds twenty-five thousand (25,000) shares, Seller may sell up to ten
