4. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES BY THE COMPANY.
The Company represents and warrants that:
4.1 Organization and Existence, Authority, etc. The Company is
a corporation duly organized and validly existing and in good standing under the
laws of the State of New Jersey, and has all requisite corporate power and
authority to carry on its business as now conducted and proposed to be
conducted; the Company has all requisite corporate power and authority to enter
into this Agreement, to issue the Shares and the Warrants as contemplated herein
and to carry out the provisions and conditions of this Agreement and of the
Warrants. This Agreement and the Warrants have been duly executed and delivered
by, and constitute the valid and binding obligations of, the Company,
enforceable in accordance with their respective terms, subject to the effect of
any applicable bankruptcy, moratorium, insolvency, reorganization or other
similar law affecting the enforceability of creditors' rights generally and to
the effect of general principals of equity which may limit the availability of
remedies (whether in a proceeding at law or in equity). The Company is duly
qualified and is authorized to do business and is in good standing as a foreign
corporation in each jurisdiction in which the conduct of its business or
ownership of its properties would so require, except where the failure to be so
qualified would not have a material adverse effect on its business and financial
condition, taken as a whole.
4.2 Litigation. Except as disclosed in the Company Commission
Filings (as hereinafter defined), to the knowledge of the Company, there is no
action, suit or proceeding pending, or threatened, against the Company before
any court, administrative agency or arbitrator which could reasonably be
expected to result in any material adverse change in the business, properties,
condition (financial or otherwise) of the Company taken as a whole, or which
challenges the validity of any action taken or to be taken pursuant to or in
connection with this Agreement.
4.3 Charter Documents. Neither the execution nor the delivery
of this Agreement, the Shares or the Warrants, nor the consummation of the
transactions contemplated hereby, nor compliance with the terms and provisions
hereof, will conflict with, or result in a breach of or creation of a lien
under, the terms, conditions or provisions of, or constitute a default under,
the charter or by-laws of the Company, as amended, copies of which have been
provided to the Purchaser.
4.4 Authorized and Outstanding Capital Stock. At September 25,
1998, the Company had authorized (i) 40,000,000 shares of Class A Common Stock,
par value $1.00 per share, of which 10,477,221 shares were issued and
outstanding, and (ii) 2,000,000 shares of Class B Common Stock, par value $1.00
per share, of which 77,236 shares were issued and outstanding, and (iii)
997,800.9375, shares of preferred stock. Of the preferred stock, 18,177.734375
shares have been designated as Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, par value
$1.00 per share, all of which were issued and outstanding. All of such
outstanding shares of Common Stock and preferred stock have been validly issued
and are fully paid and non-assessable. The Company has authorized (i) the
issuance and sale to the Purchaser of up to an aggregate of 6,666,666 shares of
Common Stock, (ii) the issuance and sale to the Purchaser of up to 1,000,000
Warrants, and (iii) upon conversion of the Warrants, the Warrant Shares. The
Shares and the Warrant Shares, when issued in accordance with the terms of this
Agreement and the Warrants, will be validly issued, fully paid and
non-assessable.
4.5 Broker's and Finder's Fees. The Company will pay all
broker's and finder's fees incurred by the Company in connection with the sale
of the Shares and the Warrants, as described on Schedule 4.5.
4.6 Commission Filings and Financial Statements. The Company
has heretofore made available to the Purchaser true and complete copies of all
reports, registration statements, definitive proxy statements and other
documents (in each case together with all amendments and supplements thereto)
filed by the Company with the Commission since June 30, 1998 (such reports,
registration statements, definitive proxy statements and other documents,
together with any amendments and supplements thereto, are sometimes collectively
referred to as the "Company Commission Filings"). The Company Commission Filings
constitute all of the documents (other than preliminary materials) that the
Company was required to file with the Commission since such date. As of their
respective dates, each of the Company Commission Filings complied in all
material respects with the applicable requirements of the Securities Act and the
Exchange Act, as applicable, and the rules and regulations under each such Act,
and none of the Company Commission Filings contained as of such date and untrue
statement of a material fact or omitted 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 were made, not misleading. When filed with the
Commission the financial statements included in the Company Commission Filings
complied as to form in all material respects with the applicable rules and
regulations of the Commission and were prepared in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles (as in effect from time to time) applied on a
consistent basis (except as may be indicated therein or in the notes or
schedules thereto), and such financial statements fairly present in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles in all material respects the
financial position of the Company as at the dates thereof and the results of its
operations and its cash flows for the periods then ended, subject, in the case
of the unaudited interim financial statements, to normal, recurring year-end
audit adjustments and the absence of footnotes. Since June 30, 1998, except as
disclosed in the Company Commission Filings filed with the Commission prior to
the date hereof, the Company has not incurred any liability or obligation of any
kind outside of the ordinary course of business, and no other event has
occurred, which in the ordinary course of business, and no other event has
occurred, which in any case or in the aggregate, would have a material adverse
effect on the business, assets, results of operations or financial condition of
the Company.
4.7 Tax Returns and Payments. The Company has filed all tax
returns required by law to be filed by it and has paid all material taxes,
assessments and other governmental charges levied upon the Company and any of
its properties, assets, income or franchises which are due and payable, other
than those presently payable without penalty or interest or those that are being
contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings promptly instituted and
diligently conducted and for which adequate reserves have been established on
the books of the Company in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles. The charges, accruals and reserves on the books of the Company in
respect of Federal, state and foreign income taxes for all fiscal periods are
adequate in the opinion of the Company, and the Company has not been notified of
any material unpaid assessment for additional Federal, state or foreign income
taxes for any period or any basis for any such assessment for which adequate
provision has not been made in its accounts in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles.
4.8 Indebtedness. The Company Commission Filings correctly
describe all material secured and unsecured Indebtedness of the Company
outstanding, or for which the Company has commitments, on the date of this
Agreement, and identify in all material respects the collateral securing any
such secured Indebtedness. The Company is not in material default with respect
to the payment of any material Indebtedness or with respect to any instrument or
agreement relating thereto.
4.9 Title to Properties. The Company has good and sufficient
title to its material properties and assets, including the properties and assets
reflected in the financial statements as of and for the period ended June 30,
1998 (except properties and assets disposed of since such date in the ordinary
course of business and properties and assets held under Capital Leases). The
Company enjoys peaceful and undisturbed possession under all material leases
necessary in any material respect for the operation of its material properties
and assets, and all such leases are valid and subsisting and are in full force
and effect.
4.10 Compliance with Other Instruments. The Company is not in
violation of any term of its certificate or articles of incorporation or
by-laws, and the Company is not in material violation of any material term of
any material agreement or instrument to which it is a party or by which it is
bound or any material term of any applicable law, ordinance, rule or regulation
of any governmental authority or any material term of any applicable order,
judgment or decree of any court, arbitrator or governmental authority, the
consequences of which violation might have a materially adverse effect on the
business, condition (financial or other), operations, assets or properties of
the Company; the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the
Warrants, will not result in any material violation of or be in material
conflict with or constitute a material default under any such term; and there is
no such term which materially adversely affects the business, condition
(financial or other), operations, assets, or properties of the Company, taken as
a whole.
4.11 Governmental Consent. No material consent, approval or
authorization of, or declaration or filing with, any governmental authority on
the part of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is required for the valid
execution and delivery of this Agreement or the valid offer, issue, sale and
delivery of the Shares and the Warrants pursuant to this Agreement, except where
the failure to obtain such consent or make such filing would not have a material
adverse effect on the business, operations or assets of the Company, and except
for appropriate filings (i) with the NASDAQ National Market System of an
additional listing application for the Shares and the Warrant Shares, and (ii)
with such state securities commissions in respect of "blue sky" laws as may be
appropriate.
4.12 Use of Proceeds. The Company will apply the net proceeds
of the sale of the Shares as follows: (i) up to $5,000,000 will be utilized for
a stock buy-back program of up to 1,000,000 shares of Common Stock, (ii) up to
$2,000,000 will be applied to possible acquisitions, and (iii) the balance of
the net proceeds will be applied to the Company's continued development of
BASE10(TM)MX and BASE10(TM)CS and for general corporate purposes.
4.13 Solvency. On the Closing Date and after giving effect to
the application of the proceeds of the Shares as specified in Section 4.12, the
Company will be Solvent.
4.14 Disclosure. To the best of the Company's knowledge, there
is no fact (other than matters of a general economic or political nature which
does not affect the Company uniquely) known to the Company which materially
adversely affects the business, condition (financial or other), operations,
assets or properties of the Company which has not been set forth either in the
Company Commission Filings or in this Agreement or in the other documents,
certificates and instruments delivered to the Purchaser by or on behalf of the
Company specifically for use in connection with the transactions contemplated by
this Agreement.

8. REGISTRATION RIGHTS.
8.1 Mandatory Registration. As soon as practical after the Closing
Date, the Company will file a Registration Statement on Form S-3 (if such form
is then available for use by the Company, or if such form is not then available
for use by the Company, another form that is available to the Company)
permitting the registration of the Shares and the Warrant Shares for resale by
the Purchaser in the manner or manners reasonably designated by the Purchaser
(including, without limitation, one or more underwritten offerings). The Company
shall use its best efforts to cause such registration statement to be declared
effective pursuant to the Securities Act as promptly as possible following the
filing thereof, and subject to applicable rules and orders, to keep such
registration statement continuously effective under the Securities Act until the
earlier of (i) the date on which all of the Shares and Warrant Shares have been
sold, or (ii) the date on which the Shares and Warrant Shares (in the opinion of
the Purchaser's counsel) may be immediately sold without registration pursuant
to Rule 144 under the Securities Act (the "Registration Period").
8.2 "Piggyback Registration Rights." At any time prior to expiration of
the Registration Period in the event a Registration Statement permitting the
registration of the Shares and the Warrant Shares for resale by the Purchaser is
not in effect, the Company shall, at least thirty (30) days prior to the filing
of any registration statement under the Securities Act (other than a
registration statement on Form S-8 or Form S-4 or any successor forms) relating
to the public offering of its Common Stock by the Company or any of its security
holders, give written notice of such proposed filing and of the proposed date
thereof to the Purchaser, and if, on or before the twentieth (20th) day
following the date on which such notice is given, the Company shall receive a
written request from the Purchaser requesting that the Company include among the
securities covered by such registration statement some or all of the Shares or
the Warrant Shares held by or to be held after conversion by the Purchaser, the
Company shall include such Shares or Warrant Shares in such registration
statement, if filed, so as to permit such Shares or Warrant Shares to be sold or
disposed of in the manner and on the terms of the offering thereof set forth in
such request.
8.3 Terms and Conditions of Registration. Except as otherwise provided
herein, in connection with any registration statement filed pursuant to Sections
8.1 or 8.2 herein, the following provisions shall apply:
(i) If such registration statement shall be filed
pursuant to Section 8.2 hereof and if the managing underwriter advises the
Company in writing that the inclusion in such registration of some or all of the
Shares or Warrant Shares sought to be registered by the Purchaser creates a
substantial risk that the proceeds or price per share that will be derived from
such registration will be reduced or that the number of shares to be registered
at the insistence of the Purchaser, plus the number of shares of Common Stock
sought to be registered by the Company and any other stockholders of the Company
is too large a number to be reasonably sold, then, in such event, the number of
shares sought to be registered for the stockholders of the Company shall be
reduced, pro rata in proportion to the number of shares sought to be registered
to the number of shares recommended be sold by the managing underwriter.
(ii) If requested by the Purchaser in connection with
a registration statement filed pursuant to Section 8.1, the Company will enter
into an underwriting agreement with the underwriters for such offering, such
agreement to be reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Company,
the Purchaser and the underwriters, and to contain such representations,
warranties and covenants by the Company and such other terms as are customarily
contained in such agreements used by the managing underwriter, including,
without limitation, restrictions of sales of Common Stock or other securities by
the Company as may be reasonably agreed to between the Company and such
underwriters, and indemnities and rights to contributions to the effect and to
the extent provided in Sections 9.1 and 9.2 hereof. The Purchaser shall be a
party to any underwriting agreement relating to an underwritten sale of the
Shares or Warrant Shares and may, at the Purchaser's option, require that any or
all of the representations, warranties and covenants of the Company to or for
the benefit of such underwriters, shall also be made to and for the benefit of
the Purchaser. All representations and warranties of the Purchaser shall be made
to or for the benefit of the Company.
(iii) The Company shall provide a transfer agent and
registrar (which may be the same entity) for the Shares and the Warrant Shares,
not later than the effective date of such registration.
(iv) All expenses in connection with the preparation
and filing of a registration statement filed pursuant to Sections 8.1 or 8.2
shall be borne solely by the Company, except for any transfer taxes payable with
respect to the disposition of such Shares and Warrant Shares, and any
underwriting discounts and selling commissions applicable solely to such sales
of Shares and Warrant Shares, which shall be paid by the Purchaser.
(v) The Company shall use its best efforts to cause
all of the Shares and Warrant Shares covered by such registration statement to
be quoted on the NASDAQ National Market System if the quoting or listing of such
registered shares is permitted by such exchange.
(vi) Following the effective date of such
registration statement, the Company shall, upon the request of the Purchaser,
forthwith supply such number of prospectuses (including exhibits thereof and
preliminary prospectuses and amendments and supplements thereto) meeting the
requirements of the Securities Act and such other documents as are referred to
in the prospectus as shall be reasonably requested by the Purchaser to permit
the Purchaser to make a public distribution of the Shares and Warrant Shares.
(vii) The Company shall prepare, if necessary, and
file such amendments and supplements to such registration statement filed
pursuant to Sections 8.1 and 8.2 hereof, as may be necessary to keep such
registration statement effective, subject to applicable laws, rules and orders,
during the Registration Period.
(viii) The Purchaser may select the underwriter or
underwriters (which shall be of nationally recognized standing), if any, who are
to undertake any offering and distribution of the Shares and Warrant Shares to
be included in a registration statement filed under the provisions of Subsection
8.2 hereof, subject to the Company's prior approval of the underwriter, which
approval shall not be unreasonably withheld.
(ix) The Company shall use its best efforts to
register the Shares and the Warrant Shares covered by any such registration
statements filed pursuant to Section 8.2 under such securities or Blue Sky laws
in addition to those in which the Company would otherwise sell shares, as the
Purchaser reasonably request, except that neither the Company nor the Purchaser
shall for any such purpose be required to execute a general consent to service
of process or to qualify to do business as a foreign corporation in any
jurisdiction where it is not so qualified. The fees and expenses incurred in
connection with such registration shall be borne by the Company.
(x) The Purchaser shall cooperate fully with the
Company and provide the Company with all information reasonably requested by the
Company for inclusion in the registration statement or as necessary to comply
with the Securities Act. The Company shall cooperate fully with any underwriters
selected by the Purchaser and counsel to such underwriters, and shall provide
reasonable and customary access to the Company's books and records (upon receipt
from such underwriters of customary confidentiality agreements) in order to
facilitate such underwriters' review and examination of the Company in
connection with such underwriting.
(xi) The Company shall notify the Purchaser, at any
time after effectiveness when a prospectus relating thereto is required to be
delivered under the Securities Act within the period mentioned in subdivision
(vii) of this Section 8.3, of the happening of any event as a result of which
the prospectus included in such registration statement, as then in effect,
includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state any material
fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein
not misleading in light of circumstances then existing (and upon receipt of such
notice and until a supplemented or amended prospectus as set forth below is
available, the Purchaser shall not offer or sell any securities covered by such
registration statement and shall return all copies of such prospectus to the
Company if requested to do so by it), and at the request of the Purchaser
prepare and furnish the Purchaser promptly a reasonable number of copies of a
supplement to or an amendment of such prospectus as may be necessary so that, as
thereafter delivered to the purchasers of such shares, such prospectus shall not
include 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 not
misleading in light of the circumstances than existing.
(xii) The Company shall furnish to the Purchaser at
the time of the disposition of the Shares and the Warrant Shares, a signed copy
of an opinion of the Company's regular in-house or outside general counsel, or
other counsel of the Company's selection reasonably acceptable to, and which
opinion shall be reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to, the Purchaser
to the effect that: (a) a registration statement covering such Shares and
Warrant Shares has been filed with the Commission under the Securities Act and
has been made effective by order of the Commission, (b) said registration
statement and prospectus contained therein comply as to form in all material
respects with the requirements of the Securities Act, and nothing has come to
such counsel's attention (after due inquiry) which would cause such counsel to
believe that either said registration statement or such prospectus contains any
untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact required
to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of
such prospectus, in light of the circumstances under which they were made) not
misleading, (c) after due inquiry such counsel knows of no legal or governmental
proceedings required to be described in such registration statement or
prospectus which are not described as required, or of any contracts or documents
of a character required to be described in such registration statement or such
prospectus to be filed as an exhibit to such registration statement or to be
incorporated by reference therein which are not described and filed as required
and (d) to such counsel's knowledge, no stop order has been issued by the
Commission suspending the effectiveness of such registration statement; it being
understood that such opinion may contain such qualifications and assumptions as
are customary in the rendering of similar opinions, and that such counsel may
rely, as to all factual matters treated therein, on certificates of the Company
(copies of which shall be delivered to the Holders).
(xiii) The Company will use its best efforts to
comply with the reporting requirements of Sections 13 and 15(d) of the Exchange
Act, to the extent it shall be required to do so pursuant to such sections, and
at all times while so required shall use its best efforts to comply with all
other public information reporting requirements of the Commission of Rule 144
promulgated by the Commission under the Securities Act) from time to time in
effect and relating to the availability of an exemption from the Securities Act
for the sale of any of the Company's Common Stock held by the Purchaser. The
Company will also cooperate with the Purchaser in supplying such information and
documentation as may be necessary for the Purchaser to complete and file any
information reporting forms presently or hereafter required by the Commission as
a condition to the availability of an exemption from the Securities Act for the
sale of any Company Common Stock held by the Purchaser.
9. INDEMNIFICATION AND CONTRIBUTION; SURVIVAL.
9.1 Indemnification.
(i) In the event of the registration of any shares or
Warrant Shares under the Securities Act pursuant to the provisions of Sections
8.1 or 8.2, the Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Purchaser,
each underwriter, broker or dealer, if any, and their directors, officers and
employees, of such Shares or Warrant Shares, and each other person, if any, who
controls Purchaser, such underwriter, broker or dealer within the meaning of the
Securities Act, from and against any and all losses, claims, damages for
liabilities (or actions in respect thereof), joint or several, to which the
Purchaser (and as applicable) its directors, officers or employees, or such
underwriter, broker or dealer or controlling person may become subject under the
Securities Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or
liabilities for actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any
untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in
any registration statement under which such shares were registered under the
Securities Act, any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus relating to such
Shares or Warrant Shares, or any amendment or supplement thereof, or arise out
of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a

therein not misleading, or any violation by the Company of any rule or
regulation under the Securities Act applicable to the Company or relating to any
action or inaction required by the Company in connection with any such
registration and will reimburse the Purchaser, each such underwriter, broker or
dealer and controlling person, and their directors, officers or employees, for
any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by the Purchaser or such
underwriter, broker or dealer or controlling person in connection with
investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action;
provided, however, that the Company will not be liable in any such case to the
extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based
upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged
omission made in such registration statement, such preliminary prospectus, such
final prospectus or such amendment or supplement thereto in reliance upon and in
conformity with written information furnished to the Company by the Purchaser
and as applicable, such Purchaser's directors, officers or employees, or such
underwriter, broker, dealer or controlling person for use in the preparation
thereof. Such indemnity shall remain in full effect irrespective of any
investigation by any person indemnified above.
(ii) In the event of the registration of any Shares
or Warrant Shares of the Purchaser under the Securities Act for sale pursuant to
the provisions of this Agreement, the Purchaser agrees to indemnify and hold
harmless the Company, its directors, officers and employees, from and against
any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which the
Company, its directors, officers or employees, may become subject under the
Securities Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or
liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any
untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in
any registration statement under which such Shares or Warrant Shares were
registered under the Securities Act, any preliminary prospectus or final
prospectus relating to such Shares or Warrant Shares, or any amendment or
supplement thereof, or arise out of or are based upon omission or alleged
omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or
necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, which untrue statement
or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made therein in
reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the
Company by the Purchaser for use in the preparation thereof. Such indemnity
shall remain in full effect irrespective of any investigation by any person
indemnified above.
(iii) Promptly after receipt by a person entitled to
indemnification under this Section 9.1 (for purposes of this Section 9.1, an
"Indemnified Party") of notice of the commencement of any action or claim
relating to any registration statement filed under Sections 8.1 or 8.2 or as to
which indemnity may be sought hereunder, such Indemnified Party will, if a claim
for indemnification hereunder in respect thereof is to be made against any other
party hereto (for purposes of this Section 9.1, an "Indemnifying Party"), give
written notice to such Indemnifying Party of the commencement of such action or
claim, but the failure to so notify the Indemnifying Party will not relieve it
from any liability which it may have to any Indemnified Party otherwise than
pursuant to the provisions of this Section 9.1 and shall also not relieve the
Indemnifying Party of its obligations under this Section 9.1, except to the
extent that the Indemnified Party is damaged solely as a result of the failure
to give timely notice. In case any such action is brought against an Indemnified
Party, and it notifies an Indemnifying Party of the commencement thereof, the
Indemnifying Party will be entitled (at its own expense) to participate in and,
to the extent that it may wish, jointly with any other Indemnifying Party
similarly notified, to assume the defense with counsel satisfactory to such
Indemnified Party, of such action and/or to settle such action and, after notice
from the Indemnifying Party to such Indemnified Party of its election so to
assume the defense thereof, the Indemnifying Party will not be liable to such
Indemnified Party for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by such
Indemnified Party in connection with the defense thereof, other than the
reasonable cost of investigation; provided, however, that no Indemnifying Party
and no Indemnified Party shall enter into any settlement agreement which would
impose any liability on such other party or parties without the prior written
consent of such other party or parties.
9.2 Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in
Section 9.1 hereof is unavailable to the Indemnified Party in respect of any
losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to herein, then each such
Indemnifying Party, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Party, shall
contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result
of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (i) as between the Company and
the Purchaser on the one hand and the underwriters on the other, in such
proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the
Company and the Purchaser on the one hand and the underwriters on the other from
the offering of the Shares and the Warrant Shares, or if such allocation is not
permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not
only such relative benefits but also the relative fault of the Company and the
Purchaser on the one hand and of the underwriters on the other in connection
with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages
or liabilities, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations and (ii)
as between the Company on the one hand and each Purchaser on the other, in such
proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Company and of
each Purchaser in connection with such statements or omissions, as well as any
other relevant equitable considerations.
In no event shall the obligation of any Indemnifying Party to
contribute under this Section 9.2 exceed the amount that such Indemnifying Party
would have been obligated to pay by way of indemnification if the
indemnification provided for under Section 9.1 hereof had been available under
the circumstances.
The amount paid or payable by an Indemnified Party as a result
of the losses, claims, damages and liabilities referred to in the next preceding
paragraph shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth
above, any legal or other expenses incurred by such Indemnified Party in
connection with investigating or defending any such Indemnified Party in
connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim.
Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 9.2, neither the Purchaser nor
the underwriter shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the
amount by which (i) in the case of a Purchaser, the net proceeds received by the
Purchaser from the sale of Shares or the Warrant Shares or (ii) in the case of
an underwriter, the total price at which the Shares purchased by it and
distributed to the public were offered to the public exceeds, in any case, the
amount of any damages that the Purchaser or underwriter has otherwise been
required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission
or alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within
the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to
contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent
misrepresentation.
9.3 Survival. The indemnity and contribution agreements
contained in this Section 9 shall remain operative and in full force and effect
regardless of (i) any termination of this Agreement or any underwriting
agreement, (ii) any investigation made by or on behalf of any Indemnified Party
or by or on behalf of the Company and (iii) the consummation of the sale or
successive resales of the Shares and the Warrant Shares.
10. AMENDMENT AND WAIVER.
No waiver, amendment, modification or supplement of this
Agreement will be binding upon the Company or the Purchaser unless such waiver,
amendment, modification or supplement is set forth in writing and is executed by
such party.
11. NOTICES.
All notices, requests, consents and other communications
hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been made when
delivered by courier or mailed express mail or transmitted by telex, facsimile,

combination of shares), the consolidation or merger of the Company with or into
another corporation or of the sale of all or substantially all the properties
and assets of the Company as an entirety to any other corporation or person, the

reclassification, consolidation, merger or sale, be exercisable for the kind and
number of shares of stock or other securities or property of the Company, or of
the corporation resulting from such consolidation or surviving such merger, to
which the Holder would have been entitled if the Holder had held shares of
Common Stock issuable upon the exercise hereof immediately prior to such
reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger or sale. The provisions
of this Paragraph 7 shall similarly apply to successive reorganizations,
reclassifications, consolidations, mergers and sales.
8. The Exercise Price and Exercise Period in effect at any
time and the number and kind of securities purchasable upon the exercise of this
Warrant shall be subject to adjustment from time to time upon the happening of
certain events as follows:

Period, the Company shall (i) declare a dividend or make a distribution on its
outstanding shares of Common Stock in shares of Common Stock, (ii) subdivide or
reclassify its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number of
shares, or (iii) combine or reclassify its outstanding shares of Common Stock
into a smaller number of shares, the Exercise Price in effect at the time of the
effective date or record date, as the case may be, for such sale, dividend or
distribution or of the effective date of such subdivision, combination or
reclassification shall be appropriately adjusted by the Company.

exercise of this Warrant is adjusted pursuant to Paragraph 8(a) above, the
number of Warrant Shares shall be appropriately and equally adjusted by the
Company at the same time.
c. Notwithstanding any adjustment in the
Exercise Price or the number or kind of shares of Common Stock purchasable upon
the exercise of this Warrant, certificates for Warrants issued prior or
subsequent to such adjustment may continue to express the same price and number
and kind of shares of Common Stock as are initially issuable pursuant to this
Warrant.
d. The Company may, but under no
circumstances is obligated to, modify the terms of this Warrant to extend the
Exercise Period, or to lower the Exercise Price, at any time prior to the
