of [ ], 2005, between BlackRock Xxxxx Capital Corporation, a corporation
organized and existing under the laws of Delaware (the "Company"), and [an
affiliate of BlackRock, Inc.] (the "Purchaser").
THE PARTIES HEREBY AGREE AS FOLLOWS:
1. PURCHASE AND SALE OF THE SHARES
1.1 SALE AND ISSUANCE OF SHARES. Subject to the terms and conditions
of this Agreement, the Company agrees to sell to the Purchaser, and the
Purchaser agrees to purchase from the Company [ ] common shares of beneficial
interest, par value $0.001, representing undivided beneficial interests in the
Company (the "Shares") at a price per Share of $[ ] for an aggregate purchase
price of $[ ].
2. REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES AND COVENANTS OF THE PURCHASER. The
Purchaser hereby represents and warrants to, and covenants for the benefit of,
the Company that:
2.1 PURCHASE ENTIRELY FOR OWN ACCOUNT. This Agreement is made by the
Company with the Purchaser in reliance upon the Purchaser's representation to
the Company, which by the Purchaser's execution of this Agreement the Purchaser
hereby confirms, that the Shares are being acquired for investment for the
Purchaser's own account, and not as a nominee or agent and not with a view to
the resale or distribution by the Purchaser of any of the Shares, and that the
Purchaser has no present intention of selling, granting any participation in,
or otherwise distributing the Shares, in either case in violation of any
securities registration requirement under applicable law, but subject
nevertheless, to any requirement of law that the disposition of its property
shall at all times be within its control. By executing this Agreement, the
Purchaser further represents that the Purchaser does not have any contract,
undertaking, agreement or arrangement with any person to sell, transfer or
grant participation to such person or to any third person, with respect to any
of the Shares.
2.2 INVESTMENT EXPERIENCE. The Purchaser acknowledges that it can bear
the economic risk of the investment for an indefinite period of time and has
such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters (and
particularly in the business in which the Company operates) as to be capable of
evaluating the merits and risks of the investment in the Shares. The Purchaser
is an "accredited investor" as defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D under the
Securities Act of 1933 (the "1933 Act").
2.3 RESTRICTED SECURITIES. The Purchaser understands that the Shares
are characterized as "restricted securities" under the United States securities
laws inasmuch as they are being acquired from the Company in a transaction not
involving a public offering and that under such laws and applicable regulations
such Shares may be resold without registration under the 1933 Act only in
certain circumstances. In this connection, the Purchaser represents that it
understands the resale limitations imposed by the 1933 Act and is generally
familiar with the existing resale limitations imposed by Rule 144.
2.4 FURTHER LIMITATIONS ON DISPOSITION. The Purchaser further agrees
not to make any disposition directly or indirectly of all or any portion of the
Shares unless and until:
(a) There is then in effect a registration statement under the 1933
Act covering such proposed disposition and such disposition is made in
accordance with such registration statement; or
(b) The Purchaser shall have furnished the Directors of the Company
with an opinion of counsel, reasonably satisfactory to the Directors, that such
disposition will not require registration of such Shares under the 1933 Act.
(c) Notwithstanding the provisions of subsections (a) and (b) above,
no such registration statement or opinion of counsel shall be necessary for a
transfer by the Purchaser to any affiliate of the Purchaser, if the transferee
agrees in writing to be subject to the terms hereof to the same extent as if it
were the original Purchaser hereunder.
2.5 LEGENDS. It is understood that the certificate, if any, evidencing
the Shares may bear either or both of the following legends:
(a) "These securities have not been registered under the Securities
Act of 1933. They may not be sold, offered for sale, pledged or hypothecated in
the absence of a registration statement in effect with respect to the Shares
under such Act or an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the
Directors of BlackRock Xxxxx Capital Corporation that such registration is not
required."
(b) Any legend required by the laws of any other applicable
jurisdiction.
The Purchaser and the Directors agree that the legend contained in the
paragraph (a) above shall be removed at a holder's request when they are no
longer necessary to ensure compliance with federal securities laws.
2.6 COUNTERPARTS. This Agreement may be signed in any number of
counterparts, each of which shall be an original, with the same effect as if
the signatures thereto and hereto were upon the same instrument.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have executed this Agreement as of the
date first above written.
