SECTION 2. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE COMPANY.
The Company represents and warrants as follows:
2.1 Organization and Qualification. Each of the Company and its
Subsidiaries is a corporation duly organized and existing in good standing
under the laws of the jurisdiction in which it is incorporated and has the
power to own its respective property and to carry on its respective
business as now being conducted. Each of the Company and its Subsidiaries
is duly qualified as a foreign corporation to do business and in good
standing in every jurisdiction in which the nature of the respective
business conducted or property owned by it makes such qualification
necessary and where the failure so to qualify would be material to the
Company or such Subsidiary, as the case may be.
2.2 Due Authorization. The execution and delivery of this Agreement,
the Stockholders Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement, and the
issuance and sale of the Series A Preferred Stock by the Company and
compliance by the Company with all the provisions of this Agreement, the
Stockholders Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement (i) are within
the corporate power and authority of the Company; (ii) do not and will not
require any approval or consent of the stockholders of the Company or any
other Person, other than approvals and consents which have been duly
obtained or which will be obtained pursuant to Section 4.14; and (iii) have
been authorized by all requisite corporate proceedings on the part of the
Company. This Agreement, the Stockholders Agreement and the Registration
Rights Agreement have been duly executed and delivered by the Company and
constitute valid and binding agreements of the Company, enforceable in
accordance with their respective terms, except that (i) such enforcement
may be subject to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or
other similar laws now or hereafter in effect relating to creditors'
rights, and (ii) the remedy of specific performance and injunctive and
other forms of equitable relief may be subject to equitable defenses and to
the discretion of the court before which any proceeding therefor may be
brought. The Company has furnished to the Purchasers true and correct
copies of the Company's Certificate of Incorporation and By-laws as in
effect on the date of this Agreement.
2.3 Subsidiaries. The Subsidiaries of the Company, all of which are
wholly owned by the Company, together with their jurisdiction of
incorporation, are as set forth on Schedule 2.3 hereto.
2.4 SEC Reports. The Company and its predecessor have filed all proxy
statements, reports and other documents required to be filed by it under
the Exchange Act, since December 31, 1996; and the Company has furnished
the Purchasers copies of its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year
ended January 31, 1999, and all proxy statements and reports under the
Exchange Act filed by the Company after such date, each as filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") (collectively, the
"SEC Reports"). Each SEC Report was in compliance in all material respects
with the requirements of its respective report form and did not on the date
of filing contain any 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 the light of the circumstances under which they were
made, not misleading. As of the date hereof there is no fact not disclosed
in the SEC Reports which is material to the Company.
2.5 Financial Statements. The financial statements (including any
related schedules and/or notes) included in the SEC Reports have been
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
consistently followed (except as indicated in the notes thereto) throughout
the periods involved and fairly present the consolidated financial
condition, results of operations, changes in stockholders' equity and cash
flows of the Company and its Subsidiaries as of the dates thereof and for
the periods ended on such dates (in each case subject, as to interim
statements, to changes resulting from year-end adjustments, which in the
aggregate will not be material in amount or effect). The Company and its
Subsidiaries have no material liabilities, contingent or otherwise, not
reflected in the Company's balance sheet as of January 31, 1999 that is
included in the SEC Reports or otherwise referred to in the SEC Reports or
otherwise disclosed to the Purchasers in writing prior to the date of this
Agreement, other than any such liabilities incurred in the ordinary course
of business, consistent with past practice, since January 31, 1999. Since
January 31, 1999, the Company and its Subsidiaries have operated their
respective businesses only in the ordinary course, consistent with past
practice, and no event has occurred that has or is reasonably likely to
have a material adverse effect on the business, financial condition,
operations, results of operations, assets, liabilities or prospects of the
Company or any of its Subsidiaries (a "Material Adverse Effect"), other
than changes disclosed or referred to in the SEC Reports or otherwise
disclosed to the Purchasers in writing prior to the date of this Agreement.
2.6 Actions Pending; Compliance with Laws. There is no action, suit,
investigation or proceeding pending or, to the knowledge of the Company,
threatened by any public official or governmental authority, against the
Company or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective properties or
assets by or before any court, arbitrator or governmental body, department,
commission, board, bureau, agency or instrumentality, which questions the
validity or enforceability of, or seeks to enjoin or invalidate this
Agreement, the Stockholders Agreement, the Registration Rights Agreement or
the Series A Preferred Stock or any action taken or to be taken pursuant
hereto or thereto, or, except as set forth in the SEC Reports or as
otherwise disclosed to the Purchasers in writing, which is reasonably
likely to be material to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, and
neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries is in default in any
material respect with respect to any judgment, order, writ, injunction,
decree or award.
2.7 Title to Properties; Insurance. The Company and each of its
Subsidiaries have good and valid title to, or, in the case of property
leased by any of them as lessee, a valid and subsisting leasehold interest
in, their respective properties and assets, free of all liens and
encumbrances other than those referred to in the financial statements of
the Company (or the notes thereto) for the fiscal year ended January 31,
1999, included in the SEC Reports, except in each case for such defects in
title and such other liens and encumbrances which are disclosed in the SEC
Reports or which do not in the aggregate materially detract from the value
to the Company and its Subsidiaries of their respective properties and
assets. The Company and its Subsidiaries maintain insurance in such amounts
(to the extent available in the public market), including self-insurance,
retainage and deductible arrangements, and of such a character as is
reasonable for companies engaged in the same or similar business. All
insurance policies of the Company and its Subsidiaries are disclosed on
Schedule 2.7.
2.8 Governmental Consents, etc. The Company is not required to obtain
any consent, approval or authorization of, or to make any declaration or
filing with, any governmental authority or other Person as a condition to
or in connection with the valid execution, delivery and performance of this
Agreement, the Stockholders Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement
and the valid offer, issue, sale or delivery of the Series A Preferred
Stock, or the performance by the Company of its obligations in respect
thereof, except for any filings required to effect any registration
pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement and any filings required
pursuant to state and federal securities laws which will be timely made
after the applicable Closing hereunder.
2.9 Holding Company Act and Investment Company Act. Neither the
Company nor any Subsidiary is: (i) a "public utility company" or a "holding
company," or an "affiliate" or a "subsidiary company" of a "holding
company," or an "affiliate" of such a "subsidiary company," as such terms
are defined in the Public Utility Holding Company Act of 1935, as amended,
or (ii) a "public utility," as defined in the Federal Power Act, as
amended, or (iii) an "investment company" or an "affiliated person" thereof
or an "affiliated person" of any such "affiliated person," as such terms
are defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.
2.10 Taxes. (a)The Company and each of its Subsidiaries have filed or
caused to be filed all tax returns which are required to be filed by them,
and all such tax returns are true, complete and correct in all material
respects. The Company and each of its Subsidiaries have paid or caused to
be paid all taxes that have become due, except taxes the validity or amount
of which is being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and
with respect to which adequate reserves have been set aside in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles. The federal income tax
returns of the Company and its Subsidiaries have been examined and reported
on by the Internal Revenue Service (or closed by applicable statutes) and
all tax liabilities including additional assessments have been satisfied
for all fiscal years prior to and including the fiscal year ended December
31, 1993 for the Company and its Subsidiaries. The Company and its
Subsidiaries have paid or caused to be paid, or have established reserves
in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles that the
Company reasonably believes are adequate, for all federal income tax
liabilities and state income tax liabilities applicable to the Company or
any of its Subsidiaries for all fiscal years which have not been examined
and reported on by the taxing authorities (or closed by applicable
statutes).
(b) As of January 31, 1999, the Company did not have any
accumulated "earnings and profits" as determined under section 312 of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). To the best
knowledge and belief of the Company, the Company does not anticipate having
any material current earnings and profits, as determined under section 312
of the Code, for its current taxable year. As of the date hereof, the
Company is not a "United States real property holding corporation" within
the meaning of section 897(c)(2) of the Code. The Company shall not become
a United States real property holding corporation.
2.11 Conflicting Agreements and Charter Provisions. Neither the
Company nor any of its Subsidiaries is a party to any contract or agreement
or subject to any charter or bylaw provision or judgment or decree which
has or is reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect. None of (i)
the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Shareholders Agreement
and the Registration Rights Agreement and the issuance of the Series A
Preferred Stock and (ii) the fulfillment of and compliance with the terms
and provisions hereof and thereof and of the Series A Preferred Stock will
conflict with or result in a breach of the terms, conditions or provisions
of, or give rise to a right of termination under, or constitute a default
under, or result in any violation of, the Certificate of Incorporation or
By-laws of the Company or any Subsidiary or any mortgage, agreement,
instrument, order, judgment, decree, statute, law, rule or regulation to
which the Company or any Subsidiary or any of their respective properties
is subject. Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries (i) is in
default under any outstanding indenture or other debt instrument or with
respect to the payment of principal of or interest on any outstanding
obligation for borrowed money, or (ii) is in default under any of their
respective contracts or agreements, or under any instrument by which the
Company or any of its Subsidiaries is bound which default, in the case of
this clause (ii), individually or in the aggregate with all other such
defaults, would be material to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries.
2.12 Capitalization. As of the date hereof, the authorized capital
stock of the Company consists of: (a) 35,000,000 shares of Common Stock,
par value $0.001 per share (the "Common Stock" and, together with the
Series A Preferred Stock, the "Stock"), of which 22,050,328 shares are
validly issued and outstanding, fully paid and nonassessable; (b) warrants
to purchase 2,712,045 shares of Common Stock which are validly issued and
outstanding, fully paid and nonassessable; (c) options to purchase
2,823,458 shares of Common Stock and deferred stock units representing the
right to receive 85,225 shares of Common Stock, all of which are validly
issued and outstanding, fully paid and nonassessable; and (d) 666,667
shares of Preferred Stock, par value $.001 per share, of which no shares
are outstanding, as of the date hereof, and 380,000 shares designated as
Series A Convertible Preferred Stock will be issued and outstanding on the
Second Closing Date after consummation of the transactions contemplated
hereby. All of the outstanding shares of Common Stock have been validly
issued and are fully paid and nonassessable. Except as set forth in the
Stockholders Agreement, no class of capital stock of the Company is
entitled to preemptive rights. Except for the options and warrants listed
above, there are no outstanding options, warrants, scrip, rights to
subscribe to, calls or commitments of any character whatsoever relating to,
securities or rights convertible into, shares of any class of capital stock
of the Company, or contracts, commitments, understandings, or arrangements
by which the Company is or may become bound to issue additional shares of
its capital stock or options, warrants or rights to purchase or acquire any
shares of its capital stock. Since August 1, 1996, the Company has not
changed the amount of its authorized capital stock or subdivided or
otherwise changed any shares of any class of its capital stock, whether by
way of reclassification, recapitalization, stock split or otherwise, or
issued or reissued, or agreed to issue or reissue, any of its capital
stock.
2.13 Issuance, Sale and Delivery of the Series A Preferred Stock. The
shares of Series A Preferred Stock being issued to the Initial Purchasers
at the First Closing and the shares of Series A Preferred Stock being
issued to the Individual Purchasers at the Second Closing are duly
authorized and when issued and delivered in accordance herewith will be,
validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable. The 17,272,727 shares of
Common Stock to be issued upon conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock,
when issued and delivered upon such conversion in accordance with the terms
of the Certificate of Designation, will be validly issued, fully paid and
nonassessable. The Company will take all action necessary to increase its
authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock to such number of shares as
shall be sufficient to reserve shares of Common Stock for issuance upon
conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock, including, without limitation,
obtaining the requisite stockholder approval of any necessary amendment to
the Company's Certificate of Incorporation.
2.14 Registration Under Exchange Act. The Company has not registered
the Series A Preferred Stock as a class pursuant to Section 12 of the
Exchange Act.
2.15 ERISA. No accumulated funding deficiency (as defined in Section
302 of ERISA and Section 412 of the Code), whether or not waived, exists
with respect to any Pension Plan (as defined in Section 11) (other than a
Multiemployer Plan (as defined below)). No liability to the PBGC has been,
or is reasonably likely to be, incurred with respect to any Pension Plan
(other than a Multiemployer Plan) by the Company, any of its Subsidiaries
or any ERISA Affiliate (as defined below) which is or would be materially
adverse to the Company, its Subsidiaries and any ERISA Affiliate. Neither
the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries and any ERISA Affiliate has
incurred, or is reasonably likely to incur, any withdrawal liability under
Title IV of ERISA with respect to any Multiemployer Plan which is or would
be materially adverse to the Company, its Subsidiaries and its ERISA
Affiliates and if the Company, its Subsidiaries and ERISA Affiliates, were
to completely withdraw as of the date hereof from each Multiemployer Plan
in which they participate, the Company, its Subsidiaries and its ERISA
Affiliates would not incur any material withdrawal liability under Title IV
of ERISA. Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries has any
obligation to provide post-retirement health benefits to any employee or
former employee. No fiduciary of any employee benefit plan (as defined in
Section 3(3) of ERISA) maintained or contributed to by the Company or any
of its subsidiaries, for the benefit of their respective employees (each an
"Employee Plan") has engaged or caused any Employee Plan to engage in any
transaction prohibited by Section 4975 of the Code or Section 406 of ERISA
which is reasonably likely to subject the Company or any Subsidiary or any
entity the Company or any Subsidiary has an obligation to indemnify to any
tax or penalty imposed under Section 4975 of the Code or Section 502 of
ERISA. Each Employee Plan has been maintained and administered in
compliance with all applicable law including ERISA and the Code in all
material respects. An "ERISA Affiliate" for purposes of this Section is any
trade or business, whether or not incorporated, which, together with the
Company, is under common control, as described in Section 414(b) or (c) of
the Code, and the term "Multiemployer Plan" shall mean any Pension Plan
which is a "multiemployer plan" (as such term is defined in Section
4001(a)(3) of ERISA).
2.16 Possession of Franchises, Licenses, Etc. The Company and its
Subsidiaries possess all franchises, certificates, licenses, permits and
other authorizations from governmental or political subdivisions or
regulatory authorities and all patents, trademarks, service marks, trade
names, copyrights, licenses and other rights, free from burdensome
restrictions, that are necessary in any material respect to the Company or
any of its Subsidiaries for the ownership, maintenance and operation of
their respective properties and assets, and neither the Company nor any of
its Subsidiaries is in violation of any thereof in any material respect.
2.17 Environmental and Other Regulations. The Company and its
Subsidiaries are in compliance with all applicable laws and regulations
relating to protection of the environment and human health, and are in
compliance in all material respects with all other applicable laws and
regulations, including, without limitation, those relating to equal
employment opportunity and employment safety. There are no claims, notices,
civil, criminal or administrative actions, suits, hearings, investigations,
inquiries or proceedings pending or, to the best knowledge of the Company,
threatened against the Company or any Subsidiary that are based on or
related to any environmental matters, including any disposal of hazardous
substances at any place, or the failure to have any required environmental
permits, and there are no past or present conditions that are likely to
give rise to any liability or other obligations of the Company or any
Subsidiary under any environmental laws.
2.18 Patents and Trademarks. Set forth on Schedule 2.18 is a true and
complete list of all patents, patent applications, trademarks, service
marks, trademark and service ▇▇▇▇ applications, trade names, copyrights and
licenses presently used by the Company or any Subsidiary or necessary for
the conduct of the business of the Company and its Subsidiaries as
conducted and as proposed to be conducted (the "Intellectual Property
Rights"). The Company owns, or has the right to use under the agreements or
upon the terms described on Schedule 2.18, all of the Intellectual Property
Rights. To the best of the Company's knowledge, the business conducted or
proposed to be conducted by the Company and its Subsidiaries does not
infringe or violate any of the patents, trademarks, service marks, trade
names, copyrights, licenses, trade secrets or other proprietary rights of
any other Person. Except as set forth on Schedule 2.18, to the Company's
knowledge, no other Person has any right to or interest in any inventions,
improvements, discoveries or other confidential information utilized by the
Company or any Subsidiary in its business.
2.19 Material Contracts and Obligations. Schedule 2.19 sets forth a
list of the following agreements or commitments of any nature to which the
Company or any Subsidiary is a party or by which it is bound: (a) any
agreement relating to material Intellectual Property Rights, (b) all
employment and consulting agreements, and all employee benefit, bonus,
pension, profit-sharing, stock option, stock purchase and similar plans and
arrangements (other than plans or arrangements providing for less than
$10,000 per employee), (c) all manufacturing, distributor and sales
representative agreements and all agreements with suppliers or vendors if
the value of the payments thereunder is in excess of $100,000, (d) all
agreements or commitments that materially restrict the ability of the
Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate to engage in any business or line of
business in any location, (e) all agreements or commitments relating to
indebtedness or guarantees of the Company or any Subsidiary if the value of
the payments thereunder is in excess of $100,000 and (f) any other
agreement or commitment which requires future payments by or to the Company
or any Subsidiary in excess of $100,000 or which is otherwise material to
the Company or any of its Subsidiaries. The Company has delivered or made
available to the Purchasers copies of all of the foregoing agreements and
commitments. To the best knowledge of the Company, all of such agreements
and commitments are valid, binding and in full force and effect.
2.20 Books and Records. All the books, records and accounts of the
Company and its Subsidiaries are in all material respects true and
complete, are maintained in accordance with good business practice and all
laws applicable to its business, and accurately present and reflect in all
material respects all of the transactions therein described. The Company
has previously delivered to the Purchasers true and complete texts of all
of the minutes relating to meetings of the stockholders, boards of
directors and committees of the Company and each Subsidiary for the past
five years.
2.21 Transactions with Related Parties. Schedule 2.21 sets forth a
true and complete list of the amounts and other essential terms of any

corporate existences, rights and franchises in full force and effect;

Subsidiary from discontinuing its operations in any particular state or at
any particular location or locations within the state, or prevent the
corporate existence, rights and franchises of any Subsidiary from being
terminated if, in the opinion of the Board of Directors, the preservation

Permitted Proceeds Uses; provided that, in the case of Retail Proceeds, the
Company may, pending any Retail Proceeds Uses, use Retail Proceeds to pay

responsible such insurance, in such amounts and of such types as are
customarily carried under similar circumstances by companies engaged in the
same or a similar business or having similar properties similarly situated.
4.6 Payment of Taxes and Other Charges. The Company will pay or
discharge, and will cause each of the Subsidiaries to pay or discharge,
before the same shall become delinquent, (i) all taxes, assessments and
other governmental charges or levies imposed upon it or any of its

under Sections 4062, 4063, or 4064 of ERISA or any similar provision of
law), and (ii) all claims or demands of materialmen, mechanics, carriers,
warehousemen, landlords and other like Persons which, in the case of either

Stockholders Agreement, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and
notification by THLi prior to the two-year anniversary of the First Closing
Date of its desire to add directors in accordance with Section 6.2, then
the Board of Directors shall take all necessary action to increase or
decrease the size of the Board of Directors and to appoint to the Board of
Directors a number of additional members (the "Additional Members")
designated by THLi that, when added to any directors then in office
designated solely by THLi, will result in directors designated by THLi
constituting a majority of the entire Board of Directors. THLi shall be
entitled to designate the Additional Members and, for so long as such Event
of Default continues, at each subsequent annual meeting, THLi shall be
entitled to propose (and the Board of Directors shall nominate and
recommend) Persons reasonably acceptable to the Board of Directors as the
Additional Members of the Board of Directors. In the event of any vacancy
arising by reason of the resignation, death, removal or inability to serve
of any Additional Member, THLi shall be entitled to designate a successor
to fill such vacancy for the remaining term of such director. At such times
as such Event of Default shall have been cured or waived, the rights of

Additional Directors to resign from the Board of Directors), subject to
revesting in the event of each and every subsequent Event of Default.

requirements. With respect to any plan maintained by or contributed to by
the Company or any Subsidiary, neither the Company nor any Subsidiary will
fail to make any contribution due from it under the terms of such plan or
as required by law. Neither the Company nor any ERISA Affiliate will permit
a Pension Plan to incur an accumulated funding deficiency (as such term is
defined in Section 302 of ERISA or Section 412 of the Code), whether or not
waived, cause a lien or a security interest to attach to any asset of the
Company or any Subsidiary for the benefit of any Plan, or incur any
liability which would be material to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries
under Title IV of ERISA, including withdrawal liability (other than the
payment of premiums, none of which are overdue). Neither the Company nor
any Subsidiary, nor any other Person including any fiduciary, will engage
in any transaction prohibited by Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of
the Code which is reasonably likely to subject the Company, any Subsidiary
or any entity that the Company or any Subsidiary has an obligation to
indemnify to any tax or penalty imposed under Section 4975 of the Code or
Section 502 of ERISA.

9.6 Amendments. This Agreement may be amended as to the Purchasers and
their successors and assigns, and the Company may take any action herein
prohibited, or omit to perform any act required to be performed by it, if
the Company shall obtain (i) the written consent of the Purchasers and/or
such successors and assigns who are the registered holders of not less than
a majority of the outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock then held
by the Purchasers and their successors or assigns and (ii) the written
consent of THLi; provided, however, that without the consent of each holder
affected, however, no amendment or waiver may (with respect to any shares
of Series A Preferred Stock held by a nonconsenting holder of shares of
Series A Preferred Stock):
(a) reduce the aggregate number of shares of Series A Preferred
Stock whose holders must consent to an amendment or waiver of any
provision of this Agreement; or
(b) make any change in the foregoing amendment and waiver
provisions.
This Agreement may not be waived, changed, modified, or discharged

against whom enforcement of any waiver, change, modification or discharge
is sought or by parties with the right to consent to such waiver, change,
modification or discharge on behalf of such party.
9.7 Cooperation. Each Purchaser and the Company agree to take, or

necessary to make effective and consummate the transactions contemplated by

9.8 Successors and Assigns. All covenants and agreements contained

respective successors and assigns. Any Purchaser may (but shall not be
required to) assign any or all of its rights under this Agreement to any
transferee of any Series A Preferred Stock; provided that THLi may only
assign its rights under Section 4 to a transferee of at least 30% of the
Stock held by THLi as of the date of this Agreement (calculated as if all
shares of Series A Preferred Stock had been converted into shares of Common
Stock as of the date of such calculation). If THLi assigns any or all of
its rights under Section 4, such rights shall only be exercised by holders
of more than 50% of the Stock held by THLi as of the date of this Agreement
(calculated as if all shares of Series A Preferred Stock had been converted
into shares of Common Stock as of the date of such calculation). This
Agreement may not be assigned by the Company.
9.9 Expenses and Remedies.
---------------------
(a) The Company agrees to pay THLi for all reasonable outside
legal and consulting fees of THLi in connection with this Agreement
and the consummation of all transactions contemplated hereby, which
costs shall not exceed $50,000, and all costs and expenses relating to
any future amendment or supplement to this Agreement or the Series A
Preferred Stock (or any proposal by the Company for such amendment or
supplement) whether or not consummated or any waiver or consent with
respect thereto (or any proposal for such waiver or consent) whether
or not consummated, and all costs and expenses of THLi relating to the
enforcement of this Agreement, the Registration Rights Agreement or
the Series A Preferred Stock.
(b) The Company further agrees to indemnify and save harmless
each Purchaser and each Purchaser's officers, directors, partners,
employees, trustees and agents, each Person who controls such
Purchaser within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange
Act, from and against any and all costs, expenses, damages or other
liabilities resulting from any breach of this Agreement by the Company
or any legal, administrative or other proceedings arising out of the
transactions contemplated hereby (other than such costs, expenses,
damages or other liabilities resulting, directly or indirectly, (i)
from the breach by such Purchaser of any of its representations,
warranties or other agreements contained herein, (ii) from the gross
negligence or willful misconduct of such Purchaser or any of its
officers, directors, partners, employees or agents, or any Person who
controls such Purchaser within the meaning of the Securities Act or
the Exchange Act or (iii) from an ERISA violation resulting from any
action or inaction by such Purchaser, other than an ERISA violation
resulting from a breach by the Company of this Agreement); provided,
however, that, if and to the extent that such indemnification is
unenforceable for any reason, the Company shall make the maximum
contribution to the payment and satisfaction of such indemnified
liability which shall be permissible under applicable laws.
(c) The indemnified party under this Section 9.9 will, promptly
after the receipt of notice of the commencement of any action against
such indemnified party in respect of which indemnity may be sought
from the Company on account of an indemnity agreement contained in
this Section 9.9 notify the Company in writing of the commencement
thereof. The omission of any indemnified party so to notify the
Company of any such action shall not relieve the Company from any
liability which it may have to such indemnified party except to the
extent the Company shall have been prejudiced by the omission of such
indemnified party so to notify the Company, pursuant to this Section
9.9. In case any such action shall be brought against any indemnified
party and it shall notify the Company of the commencement thereof, the
Company shall be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent
that it may wish, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel
reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party, and after notice
from the Company to such indemnified party of its election so to
assume the defense thereof, the Company will not be liable to such
indemnified party under this Section 9.9 for any legal or other
expense subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection
with the defense thereof nor for any settlement thereof entered into
without the consent of the Company; provided, however, that (i) if the
Company shall elect not to assume the defense of such claim or action
or (ii) if the indemnified party reasonably determines (x) that there
may be a conflict between the positions of the Company and of the
indemnified party in defending such claim or action or (y) that there
may be legal defenses available to such indemnified party different
from or in addition to those available to the Company, then separate
counsel for the indemnified party shall be entitled to participate in
and conduct the defense, in the case of (i) and (ii) (x), or such
different defenses, in the case of (ii)(y), and the Company shall be
liable for any reasonable legal or other expenses incurred by the
indemnified party in connection with the defense. The obligations of
the Company to each indemnified party hereunder shall be separate
obligations, and the Company's liability to any such indemnified party
hereunder shall not be extinguished solely because any other
indemnified party is not entitled to indemnity hereunder. The
obligations of the Company under this Section 9.9 shall survive the
redemption or purchase by the Company of the shares of Series A
Preferred Stock purchased by any Purchaser, any transfer of the Series
A Preferred Stock by any Purchaser and the termination of this
Agreement, the Series A Preferred Stock, the Stockholders Agreement
and any of the other documents executed in connection herewith.
9.10 Survival of Representations and Warranties. All representations
and warranties contained herein or made in writing by any party in
connection herewith shall survive the execution and delivery of this
Agreement and the issuance and delivery of the Series A Preferred Stock,
regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of any party.
9.11 Transfer of Series A Preferred Stock. (a) Each Purchaser
understands and agrees that the Series A Preferred Stock has not been
registered under the Securities Act or the securities laws of any state and
that they may be sold or otherwise disposed of only in one or more
transactions registered under the Securities Act and, where applicable,
such laws or transactions as to which an exemption from the registration
requirements of the Securities Act and, where applicable, such laws are
available. Each Purchaser acknowledges that, except as provided in the
Registration Rights Agreement, such Purchaser has no right to require the
Company to register the Series A Preferred Stock. Each Purchaser
understands and agrees that each certificate representing the Series A
Preferred Stock shall bear legends substantially in the form as follows:
"THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE
NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS
AMENDED (THE "ACT") OR THE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE AND
MAY NOT BE SOLD OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF EXCEPT PURSUANT TO

APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS OR AN APPLICABLE EXEMPTION
TO THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF SUCH ACT OR SUCH LAWS."
"THE TRANSFER OF THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS
CERTIFICATE IS RESTRICTED BY A STOCKHOLDERS AGREEMENT BY AND
AMONG ▇▇▇▇▇▇'▇ FURNITURE, INC. (THE "COMPANY") AND THE
STOCKHOLDERS PARTIES THERETO (THE "STOCKHOLDERS AGREEMENT"),

"IN ADDITION TO THE RESTRICTIONS SET FORTH IN THE
STOCKHOLDERS AGREEMENT, THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS
CERTIFICATE ARE SUBJECT TO THE RESTRICTIONS SET FORTH IN A
SECURITIES PURCHASE AGREEMENT BY AND AMONG THE COMPANY AND
THE PURCHASERS LISTED ON THE SIGNATURE PAGES THERETO, A COPY
OF EACH OF WHICH IS ON FILE AT THE OFFICES OF THE COMPANY."

governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New
York, including, without limitation, Sections 5-1401 and 5-1402 of the New
York General Obligations Law and New York Civil Practice Laws and Rules

hereby further irrevocably and unconditionally waives and agrees not to
plead or claim in any such court that any such litigation brought in any
such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum. Each of the parties
irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent permitted by
applicable law, any and all rights to trial by jury in connection with any
litigation arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions
contemplated hereby.
9.13 Publicity. Each of the parties hereto agrees that it will make no
statement regarding the transactions contemplated hereby which is
inconsistent with the press release agreed to by the parties hereto.
