S-1, SEC File No. 333-__________ as the same has been and may be amended from
time to time hereafter (the "Registration Statement") and filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission").
NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises contained in this
Agreement and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency
of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties to this Agreement hereby agree as
follows:
Section 1. Authorization, Purchase and Sale; Terms of the Founding Director
Warrants.
A. Authorization of the Founding Director Warrants. The Company has
authorized, and hereby ratifies such authorization by execution hereof, the
issuance and sale to the Purchasers of an aggregate of 1,800,000 Founding
Director Warrants. Each Founding Director Warrant shall upon exercise and
payment of the exercise price specified therein entitle the holder to
purchase one share of the Company's common stock, par value $0.0001 per
share (the "Common Stock").
B. Purchase and Sale of the Founding Director Warrants. The Company
shall sell to the Purchasers, and subject to the terms and conditions set
forth herein, the Purchasers shall severally purchase from the Company,
prior to the effectiveness of the Registration Statement, an aggregate of
1,800,000 Founding Director Warrants. Each Purchaser shall purchase that
number of the Founding Director Warrants as is set forth opposite his name
in the table contained in Exhibit A hereto. The purchase price of each
Founding Director Warrant shall be $1.00 per warrant (the "Purchase
Price"), which shall be paid in immediately available funds through wire
transfers to the trust account (the "Trust Account") to be established
pursuant to that certain Investment Management Trust Agreement by and
between the Company and American Stock Transfer & Trust Company
("American"). The Purchase Price shall be wired to the Trust Account by the
Purchasers so as to be on deposit in the Trust Account not less than 24
hours prior to the effectiveness of the Registration Statement. Amounts so
received in the Trust Account shall be credited against the respective
purchase obligations of the Purchasers as described on Exhibit A hereto.
C. Terms of the Founding Director Warrants. The Founding Director
Warrants shall carry rights and terms identical to those possessed by the
Unit Warrants described in the Registration Statement, subject to the
following exceptions: the Founding Director Warrants (i) will not be
transferable or salable by the Purchasers until such time as the Company
has completed a Business Combination, (ii) will be non-redeemable so long
as the Purchasers hold such warrants following their issuance by the
Company to such Purchasers, and (iii) together with the shares of Common
Stock underlying the Founding Director Warrants, are and will be entitled
to registration rights under the registration rights agreement (the
"Registration Rights Agreement") to be signed contemporaneously herewith
between the Purchasers, the Initial Stockholders (as such term is defined
in the Registration Statement) and the Company. The transfer restriction
set forth in (i) above shall not apply to (a) transfers resulting from the
death of any of the Purchasers, (b) transfers by operation of law, (c) any
transfer for estate planning purposes to persons immediately related to the
transferor by blood, marriage or adoption, or (d) any trust solely for the
benefit of such transferor and/or the persons described in the preceding
clause; provided, however, that with respect to each of the transfers
described in clauses (a), (b), (c) and (d) of this sentence, that prior to
such transfer, each permitted transferee or the trustee or legal guardian
for each permitted transferee (hereinafter collectively, "Permitted
Transferees" or a "Permitted Transferee") agrees in writing to be bound by
the terms of this Agreement. Should any of the Purchasers transfer or sell
Founding Director Warrants to persons other than Permitted Transferees
after the Company has completed a Business Combination, then such Founding
Director Warrants shall on the date of such transfer immediately become
redeemable under the same terms as the Unit Warrants. Except as
specifically provided in this Agreement, the terms of the Founding Director
Warrants shall in all other respects be as set forth in the Warrant
Agreement relating to the Unit Warrants by and between the Company and
American. In the event of any conflict between this Agreement and the
Warrant Agreement, the terms and provisions of which are incorporated
herein by reference, this Agreement shall control.

Founding Director Warrants to the Purchasers (the "Closing") shall take place at
the offices of Xxxxxx Xxxxxx & Co., Inc. prior to the effectiveness of the
Registration Statement. At the Closing, the Company shall deliver warrant

Section 4. Representations, Warranties and Covenants of Purchasers. As a
material inducement to the Company to enter into this Agreement and issue and
sell the Founding Director Warrants to the Purchasers, the Purchasers hereby
severally represent, warrant and covenant to the Company (which representations,
warranties and covenants shall survive the Closing) that:
A. Capacity and State Law Compliance. Each Purchaser is an individual
over the age of 21 years with the legal capacity to execute and perform the
obligations imposed on each of the Purchasers hereunder. Each Purchaser has
engaged in the transactions contemplated by this Agreement within a state
in which the offer and sale of the Founding Director Warrants is permitted
under applicable securities laws. The Purchaser understands and
acknowledges that the purchase of Common Stock on exercise of the Founding
Director Warrants may require the registration of such Common Stock under
Federal and/or state securities laws or the availability of an exemption
from such registration requirements.
B. Authorization; No Breach.
(i) This Agreement constitutes a valid and binding obligation of
each Purchaser, enforceable in accordance with its terms.
(ii) The execution and delivery by Purchasers of this Agreement
and the fulfillment of and compliance with the respective terms hereof
by Purchasers do not and shall not as of the
Closing conflict with or result in a breach of the terms, conditions
or provisions of any other agreement, instrument, order, judgment or
decree to which Purchaser is subject.
C. Investment Representations.
(i) Each of the Purchasers is acquiring the Founding Director
Warrants and, upon exercise thereof, the Common Stock issuable upon
such exercise (collectively, the "Securities") for his own account,
for investment only and not with a view towards, or for resale in
connection with, any public sale or distribution thereof.
(ii) Each Purchaser is an "accredited investor" as defined in
Rule 501(a)(3) of Regulation D.
(iii) Each Purchaser understands that the Securities are being
offered and sold to him in reliance on specific exemptions from the
registration requirements of United States federal and state
securities laws and that the Company is relying in part upon the truth
and accuracy of, and Purchaser's compliance with, the representations,
warranties and agreements of Purchaser set forth herein in order to
determine the availability of such exemptions and the eligibility of
Purchaser to acquire such securities.
(iv) Each Purchaser initiated discussions with the Company
relating to the purchase and sale of the Securities contemplated by
this Agreement on an unsolicited basis prior to the date of this
Agreement. The Purchasers did not initiate such discussions, nor did
Purchasers decide to enter into this Agreement, as a result of any
general solicitation or general advertising within the meaning of Rule
502(c) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities
Act"), including the filing of the Registration Statement.
(v) Each Purchaser has been furnished with all materials relating
to the business, finances and operations of the Company and materials
relating to the offer and sale of the Securities which have been
requested by Purchaser. Each Purchaser has been afforded the
opportunity to ask questions of the other executive officers and
directors of the Company. Each Purchaser understands that his
investment in the Securities involves a high degree of risk. Each
Purchaser has sought such accounting, legal and tax advice as he has
considered necessary to make an informed investment decision with
respect to his acquisition of the Securities. Each Purchaser has
received and reviewed a copy of the Registration Statement, including
without limitation, the language therein under the caption "Risk
Factors," and signed the Registration Statement signature page in his
capacity as an officer or director (or both) of the Company, as the
case may be.
(vi) Each Purchaser understands that no United States federal or
state agency or any other government or governmental agency has passed
on or made any recommendation or endorsement of the Securities or the
fairness or suitability of the investment in the Securities nor have
such authorities passed upon or endorsed the merits of the offering of
the Securities.
(vii) Each Purchaser understands that: (a) the Securities have
not been and are not being registered under the Securities Act or any
state securities laws, and may not be offered for sale, sold, assigned
or transferred unless (A) subsequently registered thereunder or (B)
sold in reliance on an exemption therefrom; and (b) except as
specifically set forth in the Registration Rights Agreement, neither
the Company nor any other person is under any obligation to register
such securities under the Securities Act or any state securities laws
or to comply with the terms and conditions of any exemption
thereunder. In this regard, each Purchaser represents that he is
familiar with Rule 144 adopted pursuant to the Securities Act, and
understands the resale limitations imposed thereby and by the
Securities Act. Each Purchaser is able to bear the economic risk of
its investment in the Securities for an indefinite period of time.
(viii) Each Purchaser is an investor in securities of companies
in the development stage and acknowledges that he is able to fend for
himself, has knowledge and experience in financial and business
matters, knows of the high degree of risk associated with investments
generally and particularly investments in the securities of companies
in the development stage such as the Company, is capable of evaluating
the merits and risks of an investment in the Securities and is able to
bear the economic risk of an investment in the Securities in the
amount contemplated hereunder. Each Purchaser has adequate means of
providing for his current financial needs and contingencies and will
have no current or anticipated future needs for liquidity which would
be jeopardized by the investment in the Securities. Each Purchaser can
afford a complete loss of his investment in the Securities.
(ix) Without in any way limiting the representations set forth
above, the Purchasers agree not to make any disposition of all or any
portion of the Securities unless and until:
(1) There is then in effect a registration statement under
the Securities Act covering such proposed disposition and such
disposition is made in accordance with such registration
statement; or
(2)(i) The Purchaser shall have notified the Company of the
proposed disposition and shall have furnished the Company with a
detailed statement of the circumstances surrounding the proposed
disposition, and (ii) if reasonably requested by the Company, the
Purchaser shall have furnished the Company with an opinion of
counsel, reasonably satisfactory to the Company, that such
disposition will not require registration of such Securities
under the Securities Act. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each
Purchaser also understands and acknowledges that the transfer or
exercise of the Founding Director Warrants is subject to the
specific conditions to such transfer or exercise as outlined
herein, as to which each Purchaser specifically assents by his
execution hereof.
F. No Group. By virtue of the Purchasers purchasing the Founding
Director Warrants under this Agreement, such participation shall not be
construed so as to make any of the Purchasers part of, or a participant in,
a "group" as defined in Rule 13d-5 of the Exchange Act with respect to any
securities of the Company.
G. Rescission Right Waiver and Indemnification.
(i) Each of the Purchasers understands and acknowledges that an
exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act
requires that there be no general solicitation of purchasers of the
Founding Director Warrants. In this regard, if the Offering of the
Units were deemed to be a general solicitation with respect to the
Founding Director Warrants, the offer and sale of such Founding
Director Warrants may not be exempt from registration and, if not, the
Purchasers may have a right to rescind their purchases of the Founding
Director Warrants. In order to facilitate the completion of the
Offering and in order to protect the Company, its stockholders and the
Trust Account from claims that may adversely affect the Company or the
interests of its stockholders, each of the Purchasers hereby agrees to
waive, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, any claims,
right to xxx or rights in law or arbitration, as the case may be, to
seek rescission of his purchase of the Founding Director Warrants.
Each of the Purchasers acknowledges and agrees that this waiver is
being made in order to induce the Company to sell the Founding
Director Warrants to the Purchasers. Each Purchaser agrees that the
foregoing waiver of rescission rights shall apply to any and all known
or unknown actions, causes of action, suits, claims, or proceedings
(collectively, "Claims") and related losses, costs, penalties, fees,
liabilities and damages, whether compensatory, consequential or
exemplary, and expenses in connection therewith (collectively, "Losses
and Expenses") including reasonable attorneys' and expert witness fees
and disbursements and all other expenses reasonably incurred in
investigating, preparing or defending against any Claims, whether
pending or threatened, in connection with any present or future actual
or asserted right to rescind the purchase of the Founding Director
Warrants hereunder or relating to the purchase of the Founding
Director Warrants and the transactions contemplated hereby.
(ii) Each Purchaser agrees not to seek recourse against the Trust
Account for any reason whatsoever in connection with his purchase of
the Founding Director Warrants or any Claim that may arise now or in
the future.
(iii) Each of the Purchasers agree to severally indemnify and
hold harmless the Company, the Representative and the Trust Account
against any and all Losses and Expenses whatsoever to which the
Company, the Representative and the Trust Account may become subject
as a result of the purchase of the Founding Director Warrants by the
Purchasers or a Purchaser, including but not limited to any Claim by
any Purchaser of the Founding Director Warrants, but only to the
extent necessary to ensure that such Losses and Expenses do not reduce
the amount in the Trust Account. To the extent that the foregoing
several indemnification by the Purchasers may be unenforceable for any
reason, each of the Purchasers agree to make the maximum contribution
permissible by applicable law to the payment and satisfaction of any
Losses and Expenses relating to Claims that may or will otherwise
reduce the amount in the Trust Account. Any Losses and Expenses
indemnified hereunder by the Purchasers will be paid based on the
number of Founding Director Warrants purchased by such Purchaser
relative to the total number of Founding Director Warrants purchased
by all Purchasers hereunder, except to the extent that such Claims are
brought by any of the Purchasers, in which case the foregoing
indemnity obligation shall only be that of the Purchaser making the
Claim, it being the understanding and agreement of the Purchasers that
each of them shall be held harmless by the other as to any Claims,
Losses and Expenses.
(iv) The Purchasers acknowledge and agree that the stockholders
of the Company, including those who purchase the Units in the
Offering, are and shall be third-party beneficiaries of the foregoing
provisions of Section 5G of this Agreement.
(v) Each Purchaser agrees that to the extent any waiver of rights
under this Section 5G is ineffective as a matter of law, each
Purchaser has offered such waiver for the benefit of the Company as an
equitable right that shall survive any statutory disqualification or
bar that applies to a legal right. Each Purchaser acknowledges the
receipt and sufficiency of consideration received from the Company
hereunder in this regard.
