STOCK PURCHASE AGREEMENT
THIS STOCK PURCHASE AGREEMENT is made as of the 21st day of May, 1998, by
and between DVI, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), and the
investors listed on SCHEDULE 1 hereto the ("Investors"), each of which is
herein referred to as an "Investor."
1. SECURITIES. Subject to the terms and conditions herein contained,
the Company proposes to issue and sell to the Investors an aggregate of 340,000
shares (the "Securities") of the Company's Common Stock, par value $0.005 per
share ("Common Stock").
2. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE COMPANY. The Company
represents and warrants to, and agrees with, each of the several Investors
that:
(a) The Company meets the requirements for use of Form S-3 under
the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act"). A registration statement
on such form (File No. 333-50895) with respect to the Securities, including a
prospectus, and pre-effective Amendment No. 1 to the registration statement
have been filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the
"Commission") under the Act, and one or more amendments to such registration
statement may have been so filed. Such registration statement has been
declared effective by the Commission. As provided in Section 5(a), a
prospectus supplement reflecting the terms of the Securities, the terms of the
offering thereof and the other matters set forth therein has been prepared and
will be filed pursuant to Rule 424 under the Act. Such prospectus supplement,
in the form first filed after the date hereof pursuant to Rule 424, is herein
referred to as the "Prospectus Supplement." Such registration statement, as
amended at the date hereof, including the exhibits thereto and the documents
incorporated by reference therein, is herein called the "Registration
Statement," and the basic prospectus included therein relating to all offerings
of securities under the Registration Statement, as supplemented by the
Prospectus Supplement, is herein called the "Prospectus," except that, if such
basic Prospectus is amended or supplemented on or prior to the date on which
the Prospectus Supplement is first filed pursuant to Rule 424, the term
"Prospectus" shall refer to the basic Prospectus as so amended or supplemented
and as supplemented by the Prospectus Supplement, in either case including the
documents filed by the Company with the Commission pursuant to the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), that are incorporated by
reference therein. The term "Preliminary Prospectus" refers to each basic
prospectus or prospectus supplement which is subject to completion. On the
original effective date of the Registration Statement, on the effective date of
the most recent post-effective amendment thereto, if any, and on the date of
the filing by the Company of any annual report on Form 10-K after the original
filing of the Registration Statement, the Registration Statement complied in
all material respects with the requirements of the Act and the rules and
regulations of the Commission thereunder (the "Regulations"), and did not
contain 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. On the date hereof and at the Closing Date (as defined below), (A)
the Registration Statement and any amendments and supplements thereto comply
and will comply in all material respects with the requirements of the Act and
2
the Regulations, (B) neither the Registration Statement nor any amendment or
supplement thereto includes or will include an untrue statement of a material
fact or omits or will omit to state any material fact required to be stated
therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading and (C)
neither any Preliminary Prospectus nor the Prospectus nor any amendment or
supplement thereto includes or will include an untrue statement of a material
fact or omits or will omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make
the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were
made, not misleading; provided, however, that the Company makes no
representations or warranties as to statements or omissions made in reliance
upon and in conformity with information furnished in writing to the Company by
or on behalf of any Investor, directly or through you, expressly for use in the
Registration Statement or the Prospectus. The Commission has not issued any
order preventing or suspending the use of any Preliminary Prospectus.
(b) The documents incorporated by reference in the Prospectus, at
the time they were filed with the Commission, complied in all material respects
with the requirements of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations of the
Commission thereunder, and when read together with the other information in the
Prospectus, do not and will not, on the date hereof and at the Closing Date,
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.
(c) The Company and each of its subsidiaries have been duly
organized and are validly existing as corporations in good standing under the
laws of their respective jurisdictions of incorporation. The Company and each
of DVI Financial Services Inc., DVI Business Credit Corporation (collectively,
the "Principal Operating Subsidiaries") and MSF Holding Ltd. are duly qualified
to transact business as foreign corporations and are in good standing under the
laws of all other jurisdictions where the ownership or leasing of their
respective properties or the conduct of their respective businesses requires
such qualification, except where the failure to be so qualified does not amount
to a material liability or disability to the Company and the Principal
Operating Subsidiaries, taken as a whole. The subsidiaries listed on Schedule
2 hereto constitute all of the active subsidiaries of the Company. All of the
other subsidiaries of the Company do not actively conduct business, have not
entered into any material existing agreements and do not have any material
liabilities of any kind, and the Company does not currently intend for any of
such subsidiaries to conduct business, enter into agreements or incur material
liabilities in the future.
(d) The Company and each of its subsidiaries have full power
(corporate and other) to own or lease their respective properties and conduct
their respective businesses as described in the Registration Statement and the
Prospectus or, if the Prospectus is not in existence, the most recent
Preliminary Prospectus; and the Company has full power (corporate and other) to
enter into this Agreement and to carry out all the terms and provisions hereof
to be carried out by it.
(e) The issued shares of capital stock of each of the Company's
subsidiaries have been duly authorized and validly issued, are fully paid and
nonassessable and, except as set forth on SCHEDULE 2, are, directly or
indirectly, owned of record and beneficially by the Company free and clear of
any security interests, liens, encumbrances, equities or claims.
(f) The Company has an authorized, issued and outstanding
capitalization as set forth in the Prospectus or, if the Prospectus is not in
existence, the most recent Preliminary Prospectus. All of the issued shares of
capital stock of the Company have been duly authorized and validly issued and
are fully paid and nonassessable. No holder of outstanding securities of the
Company or any of its Subsidiaries is entitled as such to any preemptive or
other rights to subscribe for any of the Securities, and no holder of
securities of the Company has any right which has not been fully exercised or
2
3
waived to require the Company to register the offer or sale of any securities
owned by such holder under the Act in connection with the public offering
contemplated by this Agreement. No holder of securities has the right to
require the Company to register such holder's securities under the Act in
connection with this Registration Statement. The Securities have been duly
authorized by the Company for issuance and sale pursuant to this Agreement and
at the Closing Date (as such term is hereinafter defined), after payment
therefor in accordance herewith, will be validly issued, fully paid and
nonassessable and will not be issued in violation of any preemptive or other
similar rights of any security holder of the Company.
(g) The capital stock of the Company conforms in all material
respects to the description thereof contained in the Prospectus or, if the
Prospectus is not in existence, the most recent Preliminary Prospectus.

therein by reference, there are no outstanding (A) securities or obligations of
the Company or any of its subsidiaries convertible into or exchangeable for any
capital stock of the Company or any such subsidiary, (B) warrants, rights or
options to subscribe for or purchase from the Company or any such subsidiary
any such capital stock or any such convertible or exchangeable securities or
obligations or (C) obligations of the Company or any such subsidiary to issue
any shares of capital stock, any such convertible or exchangeable securities or
obligations, or any such warrants, rights or options.
(i) The consolidated financial statements and schedules of the
Company and its consolidated subsidiaries included or incorporated by reference
in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus (or, if the Prospectus is not
in existence, the most recent Preliminary Prospectus) fairly present the
financial position of the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries and the
results of operations and cash flows as of the dates and periods therein
specified. No other financial statements or schedules of the Company and its
subsidiaries are required to be filed by the Company and its subsidiaries
pursuant to the Act or the Exchange Act. Such financial statements and
schedules have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles consistently applied throughout the periods involved (except as
otherwise noted therein). The selected financial data set forth under the
caption "Selected Financial Information and Other Data" in the Prospectus (or,
if the Prospectus is not in existence, the most recent Preliminary Prospectus)

Prospectus), the information included therein and have been compiled on a basis
consistent with the audited consolidated financial statements included or
incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement.

Company or any of its subsidiaries is a party or to which the property of the
Company or any of its subsidiaries is subject, and, to the knowledge of the
3
4
Company, no such proceedings have been threatened against the Company or any of
its subsidiaries or with respect to any of their respective properties that are
required to be described in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus and
are not described therein (or, if the Prospectus is not in existence, the most
recent Preliminary Prospectus); and no contract or other document is required
to be described in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus or to be filed
as an exhibit to the Registration Statement that is not described therein (or,
if the Prospectus is not in existence, the most recent Preliminary Prospectus)
or filed as required.
(m) The issuance, offering and sale of the Securities to the
Investors by the Company pursuant to this Agreement, the compliance by the
Company with the other provisions of this Agreement and the consummation of the
other transactions herein contemplated do not (i) require the consent,
approval, authorization, filing of or with or notice to, registration or
qualification of or with any governmental authority, except such as have been
obtained or such as may be required under state securities or blue sky laws or
(ii) conflict with or result in a breach or violation of any of the terms and

the Prospectus is not in existence, the most recent Preliminary Prospectus).
(o) The Company has not, directly or indirectly, (i) taken any
action designed to cause or to result in, or that has constituted or which

if the Prospectus is not in existence, the most recent Preliminary Prospectus).
(s) Except as described in or contemplated by the Prospectus (or,
if the Prospectus is not in existence, the most recent Preliminary Prospectus),
(i) the Company and each of its subsidiaries have good and marketable title in
fee simple to all material real property and marketable title to all material
personal property owned by each of them, in each case free and clear of any
security interests, liens, encumbrances, equities, claims and other defects,
except such as do not materially and adversely affect the value of such
property and do not interfere with the use made or proposed to be made of such
property by the Company or such subsidiary, and (ii) any real property and
buildings held under lease by the Company or any such subsidiary are held under
valid, subsisting and enforceable leases, with such exceptions as are not

result in a material adverse change in the condition (financial or otherwise),
business prospects, net worth or results of operations of the Company and its
subsidiaries, taken as a whole, except as described in the Prospectus (or, if
the Prospectus is not in existence, the most recent Preliminary Prospectus).
(v) The Company and each of its subsidiaries are insured by
insurers of recognized financial responsibility against such losses and risks

be able to renew its existing insurance coverage as and when such coverage

prospects, net worth or results of operations of the Company or its
subsidiaries, taken as a whole, except as described in the Prospectus (or, if
the Prospectus is not in existence, the most recent Preliminary Prospectus).

registration thereunder.
(z) The Company and each of its subsidiaries have filed all

or results of operations of the Company and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole,
except as described in the Prospectus (or, if the Prospectus is not in

any downgrading in the ratings of any of the Company's debt securities or
preferred stock or any of the debt securities of any of its subsidiaries or
affiliates, including, without limitation, any of the Company's securitized
debt securities or any action threatening such a downgrading or placing the
Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates under special surveillance by
any "nationally recognized rating agency" (as defined in Rule 436(g) under the
Act); nor does the Company have any knowledge of any facts or circumstances
that are likely to cause such downgrading, threatened downgrading or the
placing of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates under such

3. PURCHASE, SALE AND DELIVERY OF THE SECURITIES. (a) On the
basis of the representations, warranties, agreements and covenants herein
contained and subject to the terms and conditions herein set forth, the Company
agrees to issue and sell to each of the Investors, and each of the Investors,
severally and not jointly, agrees to purchase from the Company, at a purchase
price of $20.2575 per share, the number of Securities set forth opposite the
name of such Investor in Schedule 1 hereto. One or more certificates in
definitive form for the Securities that the Investors have agreed to purchase
hereunder, and in such denomination or denominations and registered in such
name or names as the Investors request upon notice to the Company at least 48
hours prior to the Closing Date, shall be delivered by or on behalf of the
Company to the Investors, against payment by or on behalf of the Investors of
the purchase price therefor by wire transfer in same-day funds (the "Wired
Funds") to the account of the Company. Such delivery of and payment for the
Securities shall be made at the offices of Xxxxxx, Xxxx & Xxxxxxxx LLP, 000
Xxxx Xxxxxx, Xxx Xxxx, Xxx Xxxx 00000 at 9:30 A.M., New York time, on May 28,

time and date of delivery against payment being herein referred to as the
"Closing Date."
(b) The Company hereby acknowledges that the wire transfer by or on
behalf of the Investors of the purchase price for any Securities does not
constitute closing of a purchase and sale of the Securities. Only execution
7
8
and delivery of a receipt for Securities by the Investors in the form attached
hereto indicates completion of the closing of a purchase of the Securities from
the Company. Furthermore, in the event that the Investors wire funds to the
Company prior to the completion of the closing of a purchase of Securities, the
Company hereby acknowledges that until the Investors execute and deliver a
receipt for the Securities, by facsimile or otherwise, the Company will not be
entitled to the Wired Funds.
4. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE INVESTORS. Each Investor
hereby severally represents and warrants to the Company that:
(a) This Agreement, when executed and delivered by each Investor,
will constitute the Investor's valid and legally binding obligation,
enforceable in accordance with its terms.
(b) This Agreement is made with each Investor in reliance upon the
Investor's representation to the Company, which by the Investor's execution of
this Agreement the Investor hereby confirms, that the Securities to be received
by the Investor will be acquired for investment for the Investor's own account,
not as a nominee or agent, and not with a view to the resale or distribution of
any part thereof, and that the Investor has no present intention of selling,
granting any participation in, or otherwise distributing the same. By
executing this Agreement, the Investor further represents that the Investor
does not have any contract, undertaking, agreement or arrangement with any
person to sell, transfer or grant participations to such person or to any third
person, with respect to any of the Securities. The Investor represents that it
has the full power and authority to enter into this Agreement.
(c) The Investor represents that it is familiar with Rule 144 as
promulgated under the Act, as presently in effect, and understands the resale
limitations that may be imposed thereby as a result of the Investors'
"affiliate" status (as defined in Rule 144).
(d) No consent, approval or authorization of or designation,
declaration or filing with any state, federal or foreign governmental authority
on the part of the Investor is required in connection with the valid execution
and delivery of this Agreement by the Investor and the consummation by the
Investor of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby other than
securities law filings required to be made by the Company.
5. COVENANTS OF THE COMPANY. The Company covenants and agrees
with each of the Investors that:
(a) Immediately following the execution of this Agreement, the
Company will prepare a Prospectus Supplement that complies with the Act and the
Regulations and that sets forth the number of shares of Common Stock
constituting the Securities, the name of each Investor participating in the
offering and the number of shares of Common Stock that each has agreed to
purchase, the price at which the Securities are to be purchased by the
Investors from the Company and such other information as the Investors and the
Company deem appropriate in connection with the offering of the Securities.
The Company will promptly transmit copies of the Prospectus Supplement to the

the Investors as many copies of any preliminary Prospectus Supplement and the
Prospectus as the Investors shall reasonably request.
(b) The Company will advise the Investors, promptly after receiving
notice or obtaining knowledge thereof, of (i) the issuance by the Commission of
any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement or
any post-effective amendment thereto or any order directed at any document

incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus or
any amendment or supplement thereto or any order preventing or suspending the
use of any Preliminary Prospectus or the Prospectus or any amendment or
supplement thereto, (ii) the suspension of the qualification of the Securities
for offering or sale in any jurisdiction, (iii) the institution, threatening or
contemplation of any proceeding for any such purpose or (iv) any request made
by the Commission for amending the Registration Statement, for amending or
supplementing any Preliminary Prospectus or the Prospectus or for additional
information. The Company will use its best efforts to prevent the issuance of
any such stop order and, if any such stop order is issued, to obtain the
withdrawal thereof as promptly as possible.
(c) If, at any time prior to the final date when a prospectus
relating to the Securities is required to be delivered under the Act any event
occurs as a result of which the Prospectus, as then amended or supplemented,
would include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a
material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light
of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, or if for any
other reason it is necessary at any time to amend or supplement the Prospectus
to comply with the Act, the Exchange Act or the Regulations, the Company will
promptly notify the Investors thereof and will prepare and file with the
Commission, at the Company's expense, an amendment to the Registration
Statement or an amendment or supplement to the Prospectus that corrects such
statement or omission or effects such compliance.
(d) The Company will, without charge, provide to the Investors and
to their counsel a signed copy of the registration statement originally filed
with respect to the Securities and each amendment thereto and complete copies
thereof as filed with the Commission by electronic transmission.
(e) The Company, as soon as practicable, will make generally
available to its security holders and to the Investors a consolidated earnings

Securities as set forth under "Use of Proceeds" in the Prospectus.
6. EXPENSES. The Company will pay all costs and expenses incident
to the performance of its obligations under this Agreement, whether or not the
transactions contemplated herein are consummated or this Agreement is
terminated pursuant to Section 10 hereof, including all costs and expenses
incident to: (i) the printing or other production of documents with respect to
the transactions, including any costs of printing the registration statement
originally filed with respect to the Securities and any amendment thereto, any
Preliminary Prospectus, the Prospectus and any amendment or supplement thereto,
this Agreement and any blue sky memoranda; (ii) all arrangements relating to
the delivery to the Investors of copies of the foregoing documents; (iii) the

filing fees of the Commission relating to the Securities; and (vii) the listing
of the Securities on the NYSE. If the sale of the Securities provided for
herein is not consummated because any condition to the obligations of the
Investors set forth in Section 7 hereof is not satisfied, because this
Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 10 hereof or because of any
failure, refusal or inability on the part of the Company to perform all
obligations and satisfy all conditions on its part to be performed or satisfied
hereunder other than by reason of a default by any of the Investors, the
Company will reimburse the Investors severally upon demand for all out-of-

Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), and based on no-action
letters issued by the staff of the Commission with respect to Sections
3(c)(5)(A) or (B) of the 1940 Act, the Company is not, and the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement will not cause the Company to
become an investment company subject to registrations thereunder.
Such counsel shall also state that they have no reason to believe
that the Registration Statement, as of its effective date, contained any untrue
statement of a material fact or omitted to state any material fact required to
be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading or
that the Prospectus, as of its date or the date of such opinion, included or
includes any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted or omits to state a
material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light
of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. Counsel may
state that this belief is based upon its participation in the preparation of
the Registration Statement and the Prospectus and its review and discussion of
the contents thereof but is without independent investigation or verification.
Such counsel need not assume any responsibility for the accuracy, completeness
or fairness of the statements contained in the Registration Statement or
Prospectus, except to the limited extent stated in paragraph (vi) above. In
addition, such counsel need not express any opinion or belief as to the
financial statements or schedules or any other financial, economic or
statistical data contained in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus.
In rendering any such opinion, such counsel may rely, as to matters
of fact, to the extent such counsel deems proper, on certificates of
responsible officers of the Company and public officials. Such counsel may
state that as to matters on which its opinion is expressed to its "best
knowledge" such counsel is responsible for knowledge of only those facts (i)
set forth in certificates of responsible officers of the Company, (ii)
described in the Registration Statement or (iii) within the actual knowledge of
those attorneys in such counsel's firm that have performed services for the
Company in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.
Such counsel may state that its opinions are limited to matters of
United States federal law, the laws of the state of New York and the Delaware
General Corporation Law and that its references in its opinions to governmental
authorities are to federal and New York authorities only. References to the
Registration Statement and the Prospectus in this paragraph (b) shall include
any amendment or supplement thereto at the date of such opinion.
(c) The Investors shall have received an opinion, dated the Closing
Date, of Xxxxxx X. Xxxxxx, General Counsel of the Company and of DVI Financial
Services Inc., to the effect that:
(i) (A) no legal or governmental proceedings are pending
to which the Company or any of its subsidiaries is a party or to which the
property of the Company or any of its subsidiaries is subject that are
required to be described in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus
and are not described therein, and to such counsel's best knowledge no
11
13
such proceedings have been threatened against the Company or any of its
subsidiaries or with respect to any of their respective properties and (B)
no contract or other document is required to be described in the
Registration Statement or the Prospectus or to be filed as an exhibit to
the Registration Statement that is not described therein or filed as
required;
(ii) the issuance, offering and sale of the Securities to
the Investors by the Company pursuant to this Agreement, the compliance by
the Company with the other provisions of this Agreement and the
consummation of the other transactions herein contemplated do not conflict
with or result in a breach or violation of any of the terms and provisions
of, or constitute a default under, any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust,
lease or other agreement or instrument, known to such counsel, to which
the Company or any of its subsidiaries is a party or by which the Company
or any of its subsidiaries or any of their respective properties are
bound, or the charter documents or by-laws of the Company or any of its
subsidiaries, or any statute or any judgment, decree, order, rule or
regulation of any court or other governmental authority or any arbitrator
and specifically naming the Company or any of its subsidiaries or any rule
or regulation of any governmental authority and applicable to the Company
or any of its subsidiaries;
(iii) (A) no default exists, and (B) no event has occurred
which, with notice or lapse of time or both, would constitute a default,
in the due performance and observance of any term, covenant or condition
of any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, lease or other agreement or
instrument, known to such counsel, to which the Company or any of its
subsidiaries is a party or by which the Company or any of its subsidiaries
or any of their respective properties is bound or may be affected which
would have a material adverse effect upon the property, business, or
operations of the Company and any of its subsidiaries; and
(iv) the statements set forth under the heading
"Business--Government Regulation" in the Prospectus, insofar as such
statements constitute a summary of legal matters, documents or proceedings
referred to therein, provide a fair summary of such legal matters,
documents and proceedings.
In rendering any such opinion, such counsel may rely, as to matters
of fact, to the extent such counsel deems proper, on certificates of
responsible officers of the Company and public officials. Such counsel may also
state that, wherever such counsel's opinion with respect to the existence or
absence of facts is stated to be "to the best of such counsel's knowledge" or
"known to such counsel," such statements are intended to signify that, during
the course of such counsel's representation of the Company, no information has
come to the attention of such counsel following consultation with the executive
officers of the Company which gives such counsel actual knowledge of facts
contrary to the existence or absence of the facts indicated.
Such counsel may state that his opinions are limited to matters of
United States federal law, the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and
Delaware General Corporation Law and that its references in its opinions to
governmental authorities are to federal and Pennsylvania authorities.
References to the Registration Statement and the Prospectus in this paragraph
(c) shall include any amendment or supplement thereto at the date of such
opinion.
(d) The Investors shall have received a certificate, dated the
Closing Date, of the principal executive officer and the principal financial or
accounting officer of the Company to the effect that:
13
14
(i) the representations and warranties of the Company in this
Agreement are true and correct as if made on and as of the Closing Date;
the Registration Statement, as amended as of the Closing Date, does not
include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any
material fact necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and
the Prospectus, as amended or supplemented as of the Closing Date, does
not include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any
material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the
light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; and
the Company has performed all covenants and agreements and satisfied all
conditions on its part to be performed or satisfied at or prior to the
Closing Date;
(ii) no stop order suspending the effectiveness of the
Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment thereto and no
proceedings for that purpose have been instituted or threatened or, to the
best of the Company's knowledge, are contemplated by the Commission; and
(iii) subsequent to the respective dates as of which
information is given in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus,
neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries has sustained any material
loss or interference with their respective businesses or properties from
fire, flood, hurricane, accident or other calamity, whether or not covered
by insurance, or from any labor dispute or any legal or governmental
proceeding, and there has not been any material adverse change, or any
development involving a prospective material adverse change, in the
condition (financial or otherwise), management, business prospects, net
worth or results of operations of the Company or any of its subsidiaries,
except in each case as described in or contemplated by the Prospectus.
(e) On or before the Closing Date, the Investors and their counsel
shall have received such further certificates, documents or other information
as they may have reasonably requested from the Company.
(f) Prior to the commencement of the offering of the Securities,
the Securities shall have been approved for listing on the NYSE, subject to
official notice of issuance.

counsel. The Company shall furnish to the Investors such conformed copies of
such opinions, certificates, letters and documents in such quantities as the
Investors and their counsel shall reasonably request.
8. INDEMNIFICATION AND CONTRIBUTION.
(a) The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Investor
and each person, if any, who controls any Investor within the meaning of
Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act against any losses,
claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which such Investor or
such controlling person may become subject under the Act, the Exchange Act or
otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions
in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon:
(i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement made by
the Company in Section 2 of this Agreement;
14
15
(ii) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any
material fact contained in (A) the Registration Statement or any amendment
thereto, any Preliminary Prospectus or the Prospectus or any amendment or
supplement thereto or (B) any application or other document, or any
amendment or supplement thereto, executed by the Company or based upon
written information furnished by or on behalf of the Company filed in any
jurisdiction in order to qualify the Securities under the securities or
blue sky laws thereof or filed with the Commission or any securities
association or securities exchange (each an "Application"); or
(iii) the omission or alleged omission to state in the
Registration Statement or any amendment thereto, any Preliminary
Prospectus or the Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto, or
any Application a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary
to make the statements therein not misleading.
and will reimburse, as incurred, each Investor and each such controlling person
for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such Investor or such
controlling person in connection with investigating, defending against or
appearing as a third-party witness in connection with 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 any untrue statement or alleged untrue
statement or omission or alleged omission made in such registration statement
or any amendment thereto, any Preliminary Prospectus, the Prospectus or any
amendment or supplement thereto, or any Application in reliance upon and in
conformity with written information furnished to the Company by such Investor
specifically for use therein. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to
any liability which the Company may otherwise have.
(b) Each Investor, severally and not jointly, will indemnify and
hold harmless the Company, each of its directors, each of its officers who
signed the Registration Statement and each person, if any, who controls the
Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the
Exchange Act against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which the
Company or any such director, officer or controlling person may become subject
under the Act, the Exchange Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims,
damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof arise out of or are based
upon (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact
contained in the Registration Statement or any amendment thereto, any
Preliminary Prospectus or the Prospectus or any amendment or supplement
thereto, or any Application or (ii) the omission or the alleged omission to
state therein a material fact required to be stated in the Registration
Statement or any amendment thereto, any Preliminary Prospectus or the
Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto, or any Application or
necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, in each case to the
extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or alleged untrue
statement or omission or alleged omission was made in reliance upon and in
conformity with written information furnished to the Company by such Investor
specifically for use therein; and, subject to the limitation set forth
immediately preceding this clause, will reimburse, as incurred, any legal or
other expenses reasonably incurred by the Company or any such director, officer
or controlling person in connection with investigating or defending any such
loss, claim, damage, liability or any action in respect thereof. This
indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which such Investor
may otherwise have.
(c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this
Section 8 of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party
will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying
party under this Section 8, notify the indemnifying party of the commencement
thereof; but the omission so to notify the indemnifying party will not relieve
it from any liability which it may have to any indemnified party otherwise than
15
16
under this Section 8. In case any such action is brought against any
indemnified party, and it notifies the indemnifying party of the commencement
thereof, the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate therein and, to
the extent that it may wish, jointly with any other indemnifying party
similarly notified, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel satisfactory to
such indemnified party; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that if the defendants in any such
action include both the indemnified party and the indemnifying party and the
indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded that there may be one or more
legal defenses available to it and/or other indemnified parties which are
different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party, the
indemnifying party shall not have the right to direct the defense of such
action on behalf of such indemnified party or parties and such indemnified
party or parties shall have the right to select separate counsel to defend such
action on behalf of such indemnified party or parties. After notice from the
indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to assume the
defense thereof and approval by such indemnified party of counsel appointed to
defend such action, the indemnifying party will not be liable to such
indemnified party under this Section 8 for any legal or other expenses, other
than reasonable costs of investigation, subsequently incurred by such
indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof, unless (i) the
indemnified party shall have employed separate counsel in accordance with the
proviso to the next preceding sentence (it being understood, however, that in
connection with such action the indemnifying party shall not be liable for the
expenses of more than one separate counsel (in addition to local counsel) in
any one action or separate but substantially similar actions in the same
jurisdiction arising out of the same general allegations or circumstances,
designated by the Investors in the case of paragraph (a) of this Section 8,
representing the indemnified parties under such paragraph (a) who are parties
to such action or actions), (ii) the indemnifying party does not promptly
retain counsel satisfactory to the indemnified party or (iii) the indemnifying
party has authorized the employment of counsel for the indemnified party at the
expense of the indemnifying party. After such notice from the indemnifying
party to such indemnified party, the indemnifying party will not be liable for
the costs and expenses of any settlement of such action effected by such
indemnified party without the consent of the indemnifying party.
(d) In circumstances in which the indemnity agreement provided for
in the preceding paragraphs of this Section 8 is unavailable or insufficient,
for any reason, to hold harmless an indemnified party in respect of any losses,
claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof, each
indemnifying party, in order to provide for just and equitable contribution,
shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a
result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect
thereof) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect (i) the relative
benefits received by the indemnifying party or parties on the one hand and the
indemnified party on the other from the offering of the Securities or (ii) if
the allocation provided by the foregoing clause (i) is not permitted by
applicable law, not only such relative benefits but also the relative fault of
the indemnifying party or parties on the one hand and the indemnified party on
the other in connection with the statements or omissions or alleged statements
or omissions that resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or
actions in respect thereof), as well as any other relevant equitable
considerations. The relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand
and the Investors on the other shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as
the total proceeds from the offering (before deducting expenses) received by
the Company bear to the total purchase price paid by the Investors. The
relative fault of the parties shall be determined by reference to, among other
things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or
the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to
information supplied by the Company or the Investors, the parties' relative
intents, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent
such statement or omission, and any other equitable considerations appropriate
in the circumstances. The Company and the Investors agree that it would not be
equitable if the amount of such contribution were determined by pro rata or per
capita allocation (even if the Investors were treated as one entity for such
purpose) or by any other method of allocation that does not take into account
the equitable considerations referred to above in this paragraph (d).
Notwithstanding any other provision of this paragraph (d), no Investor shall be
16
17
obligated to make contributions hereunder that in the aggregate exceed the
total purchase price of the Securities purchased by such Investor under this
Agreement, less the aggregate amount of any damages that such Investor has
otherwise been required to pay in respect of the same or any substantially
similar claim, and no person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the
meaning of Section 11(f) of the Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any
person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. For purposes
of this paragraph (d), each person, if any, who controls an Investor within the
meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act shall have
the same rights to contribution as such Investor, and each director of the
Company, each officer of the Company who signed the Registration Statement and
each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15
of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, shall have the same rights to
contribution as the Company.
9. SURVIVAL. The respective representations, warranties,
agreements, covenants, indemnities and other statements of the Company, its
officers and the several Investors set forth in this Agreement or made by or on
behalf of them, respectively, pursuant to this Agreement shall remain in full
force and effect, regardless of (i) any investigation made by or on behalf of
the Company, any of its officers or directors or any Investor and (ii) delivery
of and payment for the Securities. The respective agreements, covenants,
indemnities and other statements set forth in Sections 6 and 8 hereof shall
remain in full force and effect, regardless of any termination or cancellation
of this Agreement.
