Section 2.08 Holdback. At Closing, Purchaser will withhold from the Preferred
Shares delivered to the Sellers in connection with the transactions contemplated

shall have the right to use the Holdback Shares to offset any Losses (at the
rate of US$1,000 per each Holdback Share) arising from an indemnification claim
under Section 8.02. Access to and distributions of the Holdback Shares to
satisfy any Claims shall be governed by the provisions of Article VIII. Upon the
conclusion of the working capital adjustment contemplated by Section 2.09 and
Section 2.10, 500 Holdback Shares, less the number of Holdback Shares (if any)

between Purchaser and Sellers’ Representative, shall be released and delivered

Holdback Shares necessary for the satisfaction of any Claims pending as of the
Survival Date, as may be agreed between Purchaser and Sellers’ Representative,
shall be released and delivered to Sellers.
 
Section 2.09 Adjustment for Working Capital and Indebtedness.
 
(a) No later than three business days prior to the Closing Date, the Sellers’
Representative shall deliver to Purchaser a written statement setting forth (i)
United’s good faith estimate of the amount of the Closing Net Working Capital
(the “Estimated Closing Net Working Capital”), (ii) the aggregate amount of the
Closing Date Indebtedness (which shall be the same as the amount thereof
specified in the Pay-Off Letters), together with a copy of each Pay-Off Letter
and a listing of the individual accounts, their payees, amounts due to each and
the wiring instruction for each payee, and (iii) based on the foregoing, the
calculation of the Closing Date Payment and a listing of each Seller’s account
information and wiring instructions.
 
(b) Promptly following the Closing Date, but in no event later than 90 days
after the Closing Date, Purchaser shall prepare and deliver to the Sellers’
Representative: (i) a balance sheet of United as of March 31, 2014 (after giving
pro forma effect for (X) the assumed ownership of the Purchased Assets, (Y) the
elimination of certain intercompany and related party transactions and (Z)
certain other adjustments, all as set forth on Schedule 1.01(a)) (the “Closing
Balance Sheet”), which shall be prepared in accordance with GAAP, and (ii)
Purchaser’s computation of Closing Net Working Capital. Upon request of the
Sellers’ Representative, Purchaser shall make available to the Sellers’
Representative and its accountants all work papers and other pertinent
information used in connection with the preparation of the Closing Balance
Sheet. The Sellers’ Representative shall have reasonable access to the relevant
books, records, properties and personnel of Purchaser for purposes of verifying
the Closing Balance Sheet.
 
 
13

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 
 
(c) Within 30 days after the Closing Balance Sheet is delivered to the Sellers’
Representative pursuant to subsection (b) above, the Sellers’ Representative
shall complete its examination thereof and shall deliver to Purchaser either (i)
a written acknowledgement accepting the Closing Balance Sheet and Purchaser’s
computation of Closing Net Working Capital, or (ii) a written report setting
forth in reasonable detail any proposed adjustments to the Closing Balance Sheet
and Purchaser’s computation of Closing Net Working Capital (“Adjustment
Report”). A failure by the Sellers’ Representative to deliver the Adjustment
Report within the required 30-day period shall constitute the Sellers’
acceptance of the Closing Balance Sheet and Purchaser’s computation of Closing
Net Working Capital.
 
(d) During a period of 30 days following the receipt by Purchaser of the
Adjustment Report, the Sellers’ Representative and Purchaser shall attempt to
resolve any difference they may have with respect to the matters raised in the
Adjustment Report. In the event Purchaser and the Sellers’ Representative fail
to agree on the Closing Balance Sheet and the Closing Net Working Capital within
such 30 day period, then the Sellers’ Representative and Purchaser mutually
agree that the Independent Auditor shall make the final determination with
respect to the correctness of the proposed adjustments in the Adjustment Report
in light of the terms and provisions of this Agreement. The parties shall use
reasonable efforts to cause the Independent Auditor to render its decision as
soon as practicable (within 60 days after submission to the Independent
Auditor), including by promptly complying with all reasonable requests by the
Independent Auditor for information, books, records and similar items. The
Independent Auditor shall make a determination as to each of the items in
dispute (and each item affected thereby), which determination shall be in
writing and furnished to the Sellers’ Representative and Purchaser as promptly
as practicable after the items in dispute have been referred to the Independent
Auditor (within 60 days thereafter). The Independent Auditor shall follow the
procedures specified in the engagement letter of the Independent Auditor, unless
otherwise agreed in writing between Purchaser and the Sellers’ Representative.
The decision of the Independent Auditor shall be final and binding on the
Sellers and Purchaser, and may be used in a court of law by either Sellers or
Purchaser for the purpose of enforcing such decision.
 
(e) After the earlier of (i) the acceptance by the Sellers’ Representative of
the Closing Balance Sheet and Purchaser’s computation of Closing Net Working
Capital, (ii) the failure of the Sellers’ Representative to deliver an
Adjustment Report within the 30-day period referenced in subsection (c), or
(iii), if the Sellers’ Representative delivers an Adjustment Report, upon the
resolution of the matters raised in such Adjustment Report, the Closing Date
Payment shall be recomputed using the Closing Net Working Capital, as accepted
or resolved. The Sellers shall, within 10 days of such recomputation, pay to
Purchaser in cash any decrease in the Closing Date Payment resulting from the
recomputation. Purchaser shall, within 10 days of such recomputation, pay to the
Sellers in cash any increase in the Closing Date Payment resulting from the
recomputation.
 
 
14

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 
(f) The costs and expenses of the Independent Auditor pursuant to this Section
shall be borne by the Sellers, on the one hand, and Purchaser, on the other
hand, pro rata in an amount inversely proportional to the dollar value of the
disputed items determined in each party’s favor. By way of example, if Purchaser
had taken the position that the Closing Net Working Capital was $100, the
Sellers had taken the position that the Closing Net Working Capital was $200,
and the Independent Auditor determines the Closing Net Working Capital to be
$130, then Purchaser would pay 30% of the Independent Auditor’s fees and
expenses and the Sellers would pay 70%.
 
Section 2.10 Sellers’ Representative.
 
(a) Each of the Sellers hereby appoints, authorizes, and directs Pirie as its
sole and exclusive agent, attorney in fact and representative for and on behalf
of the Sellers (the “Sellers’ Representative”), with full power of substitution
with respect to all matters under this Agreement, including without limitation,
the right to give and receive notices and communications hereunder, to negotiate
and agree to the Closing Net Working Capital, to administer any claim against
the Holdback Shares, to negotiate, agree to and enter into settlements and
compromises related hereto, to receive, calculate and distribute any amounts
required hereunder, to engage and employ agents and representatives, to comply
with orders of courts with respect to such claims, and to take all other actions
that (i) are either necessary or appropriate in the sole judgment of the
Sellers’ Representative for the accomplishment of the foregoing, or (ii) are, in
the sole judgment of the Sellers’ Representative, specifically mandated or
contemplated by the terms of this Agreement, and to incur such other expenses as
Sellers’ Representative shall deem necessary or prudent in connection with the
foregoing. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Sellers’ Representative shall not
have any authority to enter into amendments of this Agreement or, except in the
case of a breach of a representation or warranty by a particular Seller, to take
any action which adversely affects a Seller disproportionately to any other
Seller. No bond shall be required of the Sellers’ Representative and the
Sellers’ Representative shall not receive compensation for its services. Notices
or communications to or from the Sellers’ Representative shall constitute notice
to or from the Sellers. The appointment of the Sellers’ Representative as each
Seller’s attorney in fact revokes as of the date of this Agreement any power of
attorney heretofore granted that authorized any other person or persons to
represent such Seller with regard to this Agreement.
 
(b) The appointment of Sellers’ Representative as attorney in fact pursuant
hereto is coupled with an interest and is irrevocable. The obligations of each
Seller pursuant to this Agreement (i) will not be terminated by operation of
Law, death, mental or physical incapacity, liquidation, dissolution, bankruptcy,
insolvency or similar event with respect to such Seller or any proceeding in
connection therewith, or in the case of a trust, by the death of any trustee or
trustees or the termination of such trust, or any other event, and (ii) shall
survive the delivery of an assignment by any Seller of the whole or any fraction
of its interest in any payment due to it under this Agreement.
 
 
15

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 
 
(c) The Sellers’ Representative hereby accepts the foregoing appointment and
agrees to serve as Sellers’ Representative, subject to the provisions hereof,
for the period of time from and after the date hereof without compensation
except for the reimbursement from the Sellers of fees and expenses incurred by
Sellers’ Representative in its capacity as such.
 
(d) The Sellers’ Representative shall act for the Sellers on all of the matters
set forth in this Agreement in the manner the Sellers’ Representative believes
to be in the best interest of the Sellers and is authorized to act on behalf of
the Sellers notwithstanding any dispute or disagreement among the Sellers. The
Sellers’ Representative shall not be liable for any act done or omitted
hereunder as the Sellers’ Representative while acting in good faith and in the
exercise of reasonable judgment. The Sellers shall indemnify and hold the
Sellers’ Representative harmless from and against any loss, liability or expense
incurred without negligence or bad faith on the part of the Sellers’
Representative and arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or
administration of the Sellers’ Representative’s duties hereunder, including the
reasonable fees and expenses of any legal counsel retained by the Sellers’
Representative.
 
(e) Subject to subsection (a) above, a decision, act, consent or instruction of
the Sellers’ Representative pursuant to this Agreement shall constitute a
decision of the Sellers and shall be final, binding and conclusive upon the
Sellers, and Purchaser Indemnified Parties may rely upon any such decision, act,
consent or instruction of the Sellers’ Representative as being the decision,
act, consent or instruction of the Sellers. Purchaser Indemnified Parties are
hereby relieved from any liability to any Person for any acts done by them in
accordance with such decision, act, consent or instruction of the Sellers’
Representative. The rights, powers and benefits of the Sellers’ Representative
under this Agreement shall survive any termination of this Agreement.

exempt from federal income taxation under Section 501(a) of the Code has
received a determination letter from the IRS that it is so exempt, and no fact
or event has occurred since the date of such determination letter from the IRS
to adversely affect the qualified status of any such Employee Benefit Plan or
the exempt status of any such trust.

this Agreement will not be registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended (the “Securities Act”), or any applicable state securities Laws
(collectively, the “Securities Laws“), and therefore may not be resold without
compliance with the Securities Laws. The Preferred Shares are being or will be
acquired by each Seller solely for his own account, for investment purposes
only, and with no present intention of distributing, selling or otherwise
disposing of them in connection with a distribution. No Seller will, directly or

dispose of any of the Preferred Shares except after full compliance with all
Securities Laws. Certificates representing the Preferred Shares shall bear the

AMENDED, OR ANY STATE SECURITIES LAWS. THESE SECURITIES MAY NOT BE SOLD OR
OFFERED FOR SALE, PLEDGED, HYPOTHECATED OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED, EXCEPT
PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION UNDER SAID ACT AND ANY APPLICABLE STATE
SECURITIES LAW OR PURSUANT TO AN AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM SUCH REGISTRATION.
HEDGING TRANSACTIONS MAY NOT BE CONDUCTED WITH RESPECT TO THESE SECURITIES
UNLESS IN COMPLIANCE WITH SAID ACT.”
 
(b) Each Seller is able to bear the economic risk of an investment in the
Preferred Shares and can afford to sustain a total loss of such investment. Each
Seller has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters such
that Seller is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the proposed
investment and therefore has the capacity to protect such Seller’s own interests
in connection with the acquisition of the Preferred Shares. Each Seller
represents that such Seller and its representatives have had an adequate
opportunity to ask questions and receive answers from the officers of Purchaser
concerning, among other matters, Purchaser, its management, its plans for the
operation of its businesses and potential additional acquisitions.
 
(c) Each Seller acknowledges that the Preferred Shares will be subject to
certain transfer restrictions and that the certificates representing the
Preferred Shares shall bear the following legend, which shall reflect such
transfer restrictions, in addition to the legend under subsection (a) above:

NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD, ASSIGNED, PLEDGED, HYPOTHECATED, TRANSFERRED OR OTHERWISE
DISPOSED OF EXCEPT PURSUANT TO SUCH CONTRACTUAL RESTRICTIONS OR WITH THE PRIOR
WRITTEN CONSENT OF ALY ENERGY SERVICES, INC.”

material developments affecting the assets, Liabilities, business, financial
condition, operations, results of operations, customer or supplier relations,
employee relations or prospects of any Seller or United; provided, however, that

and the earlier of (a) the Closing and (b) the termination of this Agreement,
none of the Sellers nor their respective Affiliates, officers, directors,

Section 7.09 Transaction Costs; Certain Taxes.
 
(a) Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, (i) Purchaser shall pay its

their respective Affiliates shall not disclose or use in any manner detrimental
to United or the Purchased Assets any confidential information relating to
United or the Purchased Assets that remains in or comes into such party’s
possession in any form, except as required by applicable Law. If a party is
requested or required (by oral questions, interrogatories, requests for
information or documents in legal, administrative, arbitration or other formal
proceedings, subpoena, civil investigative demand or other similar process) to
disclose any such confidential information, such party shall promptly notify the
other parties of any such request or requirement so that such other parties may
seek a protective order or other appropriate remedy and waive compliance with
the provisions of this Section. If, in the absence of a protective order or
other remedy or the receipt of a waiver by the other parties, a party is
required to disclose such information, such party, without liability hereunder,
may disclose only that portion of such information that such party is legally

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 
 
Section 7.11 Restrictive Covenants.
 
(a) Principals acknowledge and agree that, as beneficial owners of the United
Common Stock, they will benefit from the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement. As a material inducement to Purchaser to complete the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement, each Principal agrees that, for the five-year
period from and after the Closing (the “Restricted Period”), it shall not,
directly or indirectly, through an Affiliate or otherwise, either for its own
benefit or for the benefit of any other Person, without the prior written
consent of Purchaser, which consent may be withheld by Purchaser in its sole
discretion, own an interest in, or manage, operate, Control, lend money or
render financial or other assistance to or participate in or be connected with,
as an officer, employee, partner, manager, member, stockholder, consultant or
otherwise, any Person that is engaged in the United States in any oilfield
services or equipment rental business using centrifuges, shakers or any other
required support equipment used in closed loop or surface systems. Each
Principal hereby acknowledges that the geographic boundaries, scope of
prohibited activities and the time duration of the provisions of this Section
are reasonable and are no broader than are necessary to protect the legitimate
business interests of Purchaser including, without limitation, the ability of
Purchaser to realize the benefit of its bargain and enjoy the goodwill of
United. Notwithstanding the foregoing, ownership by any Principal of less than
2% of the outstanding shares or other equity interests of capital stock of any
corporation or other entity listed on a national securities exchange or publicly
traded on any nationally recognized over-the-counter market, held as a passive
investment, shall not constitute a breach of this Section.
 
(b) Each Seller and Principal further agrees that during the Restricted Period
it will not, directly or indirectly, assist or encourage any other Person in
carrying out, directly or indirectly, any activity that would be prohibited by
the provisions of subsection (a) above if such activity were carried out by
Sellers or Principals, either directly or indirectly. In particular, each Seller
and Principal agrees that it will not, during the Restricted Period, directly or
indirectly, induce any employee of Purchaser, or of any of its Affiliates, to
carry out, directly or indirectly, any such activity.
 
(c) During the Restricted Period, Principals shall not, without the prior
written consent of Purchaser, (i) hire, or directly or indirectly attempt to
hire away any then-current employee of the Purchaser or any of its Affiliates or
to persuade any such employee to leave employment with Purchaser or any of its
Affiliates or (ii) directly or indirectly solicit, divert, or take away, or
attempt to solicit, divert or take away, the business of any Person with whom
United, Purchaser or any of their respective Affiliates has established or is
actively seeking to establish a business or customer relationship to the extent
such business relates to the business conducted by United, Purchaser or their
respective Affiliates.
 
(d) Each Principal acknowledges that it would be difficult to fully compensate
Purchaser or any of its Affiliates for damages resulting from any breach by them
of the provisions of this Section. Accordingly, in the event of any actual or
threatened breach of such provisions, Purchaser and its Affiliates shall (in
addition to any other remedies which it may have) be entitled to temporary
and/or permanent injunctive relief to enforce such provisions and recover
attorneys’ fees and costs for same, and such relief may be granted without the
necessity of proving actual damages or the inadequacy of money damages, or
posting bond. Each Principal further acknowledges that this Section constitutes
a material inducement to Purchaser to complete the transactions contemplated by
this Agreement and Purchaser will be relying on the enforceability of this
Section in completing such transactions contemplated by this Agreement.
 
 
45

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 
 
Section 7.12 Release. In exchange for receipt of the Consideration and effective
as of the Closing, each Seller hereby irrevocably and unconditionally releases,
acquits and forever discharges, without any additional consideration or the need
for additional documentation, United and each of its respective partners,
members, managers, officers, directors, employees, counsel, agents, contractors,
successors, assigns, heirs and legal and personal representatives (collectively,
the “Company Released Parties”) from any and all charges, complaints, claims,
suits, judgments, demands, actions, obligations or liabilities, damages, causes
of action, rights, costs, loans, debts and expenses (including attorneys’ fees
and costs actually incurred), of any nature whatsoever, known, unknown or
presently unknowable, contingent or absolute, whether asserted or not, now
existing or which may subsequently accrue to them in the future, emanating from,
in connection with, related to or arising out of the ownership, management or
operation of the business of United or the Blocker Corps prior to the Closing
except those set forth in Schedule 4.10. In exchange for receipt of the
Consideration and effective as of the Closing, each Seller hereby agrees that it
shall not institute, pursue, solicit, encourage or assist any proceedings (at
Law or in equity), suits, or claims in state or federal court against or adverse
to the Company Released Parties arising from or attributable to the business of
United or the Blocker Corps in connection with the foregoing.
 
Section 7.13 Tax Matters.
 
(a) Sellers shall be responsible for any and all Taxes imposed on United or the
Blocker Corps or their respective operations with respect to any Tax period (or
portion of a Straddle Period) ending on or before the Closing Date (a “Pre
Closing Tax Period”), including any Taxes arising as a result of the conversion
of United pursuant to the Plan of Conversion or arising from the Merger, except
to the extent that such Tax liability has been included in Closing Net Working
Capital. In the case of any taxable period that includes (but does not end on)
the Closing Date (each, a “Straddle Period”), (i) the real, personal and
intangible property Taxes (“Property Taxes”) imposed upon United, the Blocker
Corps or their respective operations that are allocable to the Pre Closing Tax
Period shall be equal to the amount of such Property Taxes for the entire
Straddle Period multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number
of days during the Straddle Period that are in the Pre Closing Tax Period and
the denominator of which is the total number of days in the Straddle Period and
(ii) the Taxes (other than Property Taxes) imposed upon United that are
allocable to the Pre Closing Tax Period shall be computed as if such taxable
period ended on the Closing Date, provided that exemptions, allowances or
deductions that are calculated on an annual basis (including depreciation and
amortization deductions), other than with respect to property placed in service
after the Closing, shall be allocated between the period ending on the Closing
Date and the period after the Closing Date in proportion to the number of days
in each period. To the extent the Sellers are obligated to pay a Tax under this
Section (or as a result of a breach of a representation or warranty), the
Sellers shall pay such Tax at least three days prior to the date such Tax is due
or 10 days after receipt of written demand for payment, whichever is later. To
the extent that United or any of the Blocker Corps receives a refund for Taxes
for a Pre-Closing Tax Period (other than refunds resulting from the carrying
back of any net operating loss or other Tax attribute or Tax credit incurred in
a period (or a portion of a Straddle Period) beginning on or after the Closing
Date), Purchaser shall pay the amount of such refund (net of any Taxes incurred
connection with the receipt of such refund and any out of pocket expenses
incurred to obtain such refund) to the Sellers’ Representative for distribution
to the appropriate Sellers. All amounts paid with respect to a Tax refund shall
be paid within 10 days of receipt of such refund from the applicable
Governmental Authority.
 
 
46

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 
 
(b) Sellers shall be responsible for the preparation and filing of any Tax
Return of or with respect to United, the Blocker Corps or their respective
operations that is required to be filed with respect to 2013 and prior years and
for any short period from January 1, 2014 through the Closing Date. The Sellers
shall also be responsible for preparing and timely filing the IRS Form 1065 and
the IRS Form 1120 for United (and any analogous forms for state or local Tax
purposes) for any period ending on or before the Closing Date (collectively,
“Pass-Through Returns”). Each such Tax Return to be prepared by the Sellers
(including all Pass-Through Returns) shall be true and correct and completed in
accordance with applicable law and consistent with past practice, procedures and
accounting methods in all material respects. At least 30 days prior to the due
date for filing (including extensions), the Sellers’ Representative shall
provide each such Tax Return (including Pass-Through Returns) to Purchaser for
review, and each such Tax Return shall be revised to reflect Purchaser’s
reasonable comments that are received at least five days prior to the due date
for filing (including extensions).
 
(c) If any Governmental Authority issues to United or any Blocker Corp (i) a
written notice of its intent to audit, conduct another proceeding with respect
to Taxes or Tax Returns for a Pre-Closing Tax Period, or (ii) a written notice
of deficiency, assessment, proposed adjustment, claim or other demand concerning
Taxes or Tax Returns (a “Tax Claim”) for a Pre-Closing Tax Period, Purchaser
shall notify the Sellers’ Representative of its receipt of such communication
within 30 business days of receipt. No failure or delay of Purchaser in the
performance of the foregoing shall reduce or otherwise affect the obligations or
Liabilities of Sellers pursuant to this Agreement, except to the extent that
such failure or delay shall preclude United or any of the Blocker Corps from
defending against any Liability or Claim for Taxes that the Sellers are
obligated to pay hereunder.
 
(d) The Purchaser shall control the conduct of any audit or other proceeding
regarding any Tax Claim (a “Tax Contest”); provided, that (i) the Sellers’
Representative shall, at the sole cost and expense of the Sellers, have the
right to participate in any such Tax Contest to the extent it relates to a Taxes
for a Pre-Closing Tax Period, and (ii) Purchaser shall not settle or otherwise
resolve any Tax Contest (or any issue raised in such Tax Contest), or allow
United or any of the Blocker Corps to settle or otherwise resolve, if such
settlement or other resolution relates to Taxes for which the Sellers are liable
under this Agreement without the permission of the Sellers’ Representative
(which will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed or conditioned).
 
(e) Any Tax sharing, indemnification or allocation agreement or arrangement to
which United or the Blocker Corps is a party or by which it is bound shall be
terminated effective as of the Closing, and neither United nor the Blocker Corps
shall have any liability pursuant to any such agreement.
 
 
47

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 
 
(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, in addition to
any other remedy provided by this Agreement, the Purchaser Indemnified Parties
(including, after the Closing, United and the Blocker Corps) shall be
indemnified and held harmless by the Sellers against any and all Liability,
obligation or commitment, whether or not accrued, assessed or currently due and
payable, as well as related Loss, for any and all Taxes imposed on United, the
Blocker Corps or their operations with respect to a Pre-Closing Tax Period.
 
ARTICLE VIII
INDEMNIFICATION
 
Section 8.01 Survival of Representations and Warranties. The representations and
warranties contained in this Agreement shall survive the Closing until the
Survival Date; provided, however, that insofar as any Claim is made for the
breach of any Unlimited Representation, such representations and warranties
shall, for purposes of such Claim, survive the Closing for the period of the
relevant statute of limitations in respect thereof. Neither the period of
survival nor the liability of the Indemnifying Party with respect to its
representations and warranties shall be reduced by any investigation made at any
time by or on behalf of Indemnified Party. If written notice of a Claim has been
given prior to the expiration of the applicable representations and warranties
by an Indemnified Party to an Indemnifying Party, then the relevant
representations and warranties shall survive as to such Claim, until such Claim
has been finally resolved.
 
Section 8.02 Indemnification by the Principals. Purchaser and its Affiliates,
managers, members, employees, agents, successors and assigns (each a “Purchaser
Indemnified Party”) shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Principals,
jointly and severally, for and against any and all Liabilities, losses,
diminution in value, damages, Claims, costs and expenses, interest, awards,
judgments and penalties, including without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ and
consultants’ fees and expenses (hereinafter a “Loss”) actually suffered or
incurred by them (including, without limitation, any Action brought or otherwise
initiated by any of them), arising out of or resulting from: (a) the breach of
any representation or warranty made by the Sellers contained in this Agreement,
or (b) the breach of any covenant or agreement by the Sellers contained in this
Agreement. To the extent that the Principals’ undertakings set forth in this
Section may be unenforceable, the Principals shall contribute the maximum amount
that it is permitted to contribute under applicable Law to the payment and
satisfaction of all Losses incurred by Purchaser Indemnified Parties.
 
Section 8.03 Indemnification by Purchaser. The Sellers and their respective
Affiliates, partners, managers, members, employees, agents, successors and
assigns (each a “Seller Indemnified Party”) shall be indemnified and held
harmless by Purchaser for and against any and all Losses, arising out of or
resulting from: (a) the breach of any representation or warranty made by
Purchaser contained in this Agreement, or (b) the breach of any covenant or
agreement by Purchaser contained in this Agreement. To the extent that
Purchaser’s undertakings set forth in this Section may be unenforceable,
Purchaser shall contribute the maximum amount that it is permitted to contribute
under applicable Law to the payment and satisfaction of all Losses incurred by
the Sellers Indemnified Parties.
 
 
48

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 
 
Section 8.04 Indemnification Process. An Indemnified Party shall give each
Indemnifying Party written notice of any matter that such Indemnified Party has
determined has given rise to or could give rise to a right of indemnification
under this Agreement, within 60 days of such determination, stating the amount
of the Loss, if known (the “Claimed Amount”), and method of computation thereof,
and containing a reference to the provisions of this Agreement in respect of
which such right of indemnification is claimed or arises. Within 15 days after
delivery of such written notice, the Indemnifying Party shall deliver to the
Indemnified Party a written response in which the Indemnifying Party shall (a)
agree that the Indemnified Party is entitled to receive part or all of the
Claimed Amount, in which case the portion of such Claimed Amount which is not in
dispute shall be paid or offset in accordance with this Article, or (b) contest
that the Indemnified Party is entitled to receive any of the Claimed Amount. If
the Indemnifying Party contests the payment of all or part of the Claimed
Amount, the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall use good faith
efforts to resolve such dispute as promptly as practicable. If such dispute is
not resolved within 30 days following the delivery by the Indemnifying Party of
such response, the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party shall each have
the right to submit such dispute to a court of competent jurisdiction in
accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. If the Sellers’ Representative
and Purchaser have mutually agreed that the Sellers are obligated to indemnify
Purchaser Indemnified Parties for all or a portion of a Claimed Amount, the
Purchaser shall have the right to redeem and retain the number of Holdback
Shares having a value equal to the dollar amount of the Claimed Amount, using a
price per share of US$1,000 to calculate the value of each Holdback Share. If a
final judgment from which no appeal is taken has been rendered by the court of
competent jurisdiction to which the dispute submitted, Purchaser shall have the
right to redeem and retain the number of Holdback Shares having a value equal to
the dollar amount of the amount determined to be owed to Purchaser, using a
price per share of US$1,000 to calculate the value of each Holdback Share. To
the extent the value of the Holdback Shares remaining is insufficient to pay the
amount determined to be owed to Purchaser, the Sellers shall promptly pay to the
Purchase the amount of such deficiency, subject to Purchaser’s right to offset
in accordance with Section 8.07.
 
Section 8.05 Third Party Claims. If an Indemnified Party shall receive notice of
any Claims of any third party which are subject to the indemnification provided
for in this Article (“Third Party Claims”), the Indemnified Party shall give
each Indemnifying Party written notice of such Third Party Claim within 30 days
of the receipt by such Indemnified Party of such notice; provided, however, that
the failure to provide such notice shall not release the Indemnifying Party from
any of its obligations under this Article except to the extent the Indemnifying
Party is materially prejudiced by such failure and shall not relieve the
Indemnifying Party from any other obligation or Liability that it may have to
any Indemnified Party otherwise than under this Article. The obligations and
Liabilities of the Indemnifying Party under this Article with respect to Losses
arising from Third Party Claims shall be governed by and be contingent upon the
following additional terms and conditions: If the Indemnifying Party
acknowledges in writing its obligation to indemnify the Indemnified Party
hereunder against any Losses that may result from such Third Party Claim, then
the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to assume and control the defense of
such Third Party Claim at its expense and through counsel of its choice if it
gives notice of its intention to do so to such Indemnified Party within ten days
of the receipt of such notice from the Indemnified Party; provided, however,
that if there exists or is reasonably likely to exist a conflict of interest
that would make it inappropriate in the judgment of such Indemnified Party in
its sole and absolute discretion, for the same counsel to represent both the
Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party, then the Indemnified Party shall
be entitled to retain its own counsel, in each jurisdiction for which the
Indemnified Party determines counsel is required, at the expense of the
Indemnifying Party. In the event that the Indemnifying Party exercises the right
to undertake any such defense against any such Third Party Claim as provided
above, the Indemnified Party shall cooperate with the Indemnifying Party in such
defense and make available to the Indemnifying Party, at the Indemnifying
Party’s expense, all witnesses, pertinent records, materials and information in
the Indemnified Party’s possession or under the Indemnified Party’s control
relating thereto as is reasonably required by the Indemnifying Party. Similarly,
in the event the Indemnified Party is, directly or indirectly, conducting the
defense against any such Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall
cooperate with the Indemnified Party in such defense and make available to the
Indemnified Party, at the Indemnifying Party’s expense, all such witnesses,
records, materials and information in the Indemnifying Party’s possession or
under the Indemnifying Party’s control relating thereto as is reasonably
required by the Indemnified Party. No such Third Party Claim may be settled by
the Indemnifying Party without the prior written consent of the Indemnified
Party, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

contained in this Agreement:
 
(a) An Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any claim for indemnification
pursuant to Section 8.02 or 8.03, unless and until the cumulative aggregate
amount of indemnifiable Losses which may be recovered from the Indemnifying
Party equals or exceeds US$100,000, after which point the Indemnifying Party
shall be liable for all indemnifiable Losses incurred by the Indemnified Party
(including the first US$100,000).

Loss against the payment of any additional contingent consideration to which the
Sellers may be entitled.

by this Article VIII and Section 2.09 shall be the exclusive remedies for each

shorter than a full quarterly dividend period will be computed on the basis of a
360-day year of twelve 30-day months. No fractional shares of Preferred Stock
will be issued, so that the number of shares to be paid as a dividend shall be
rounded to the nearest whole number of shares. All dividends paid in additional
whole or fractional shares of Preferred Stock shall be deemed issued on the
applicable Dividend Payment Date and will thereupon be duly authorized, validly
issued, fully paid and nonassessable and free and clear of all liens, charges
and other encumbrances.
 
(iv) Dividends payable on any Dividend Payment Date shall be payable to the
holders of record of the Preferred Stock as they appear on the stock transfer
books of the Corporation at the close of business on the fifteenth day of the

designates that is not more than 30 nor less than 10 days prior to the Dividend
Payment Date.

solely for Junior Stock), at any time that the Preferred Stock is outstanding.
 
(vi) The Corporation shall take all action necessary to ensure that sufficient
shares of Preferred Stock are available for issuance as payment-in-kind
dividends.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

(c) Liquidation Rights.
 
(i) Voluntary or Involuntary Liquidation. In the event of any liquidation,
dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the Corporation, whether voluntary
or involuntary, holders of the Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive for
each share of Preferred Stock, out of the assets of the Corporation or proceeds
thereof (whether capital or surplus) available for distribution to stockholders
of the Corporation, and after satisfaction of all liabilities and obligations to
creditors of the Corporation, before any distribution of such assets or proceeds
is made to or set aside for the holders of Junior Stock, an amount equal to the
sum of (A) the Liquidation Preference per share of the Preferred Stock plus (B)
an amount per share equal to accrued but unpaid dividends not previously added
to the Liquidation Preference from and including the immediately preceding
Dividend Payment Date to but excluding the date fixed for such liquidation,
dissolution or winding up of the Corporation. To the extent such amount is paid
in full to all holders of Preferred Stock, the holders of the Common Stock of
the Corporation shall be entitled to receive all remaining assets of the
Corporation (or proceeds thereof) according to their respective rights and
preferences.
 
(ii) Partial Payment. If in connection with any distribution described in
paragraph (c)(i) above the assets of the Corporation or proceeds thereof are not
sufficient to pay the Liquidation Preferences in full to all holders of
Preferred Stock, the amounts paid to the holders of Preferred Stock shall be
paid pro rata in accordance with the respective aggregate Liquidation
Preferences of the holders of Preferred Stock.
 
(iii) Merger, Consolidation and Sale of Assets Not Liquidation. For purposes of
this paragraph (c), the merger or consolidation of the Corporation with any
other corporation or other entity, including a merger or consolidation in which
the holders of Preferred Stock receive cash, securities or other property for
their shares, or the sale, lease or exchange (for cash, securities or other
property) of all or substantially all of the assets of the Corporation, shall
not constitute a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation.

(d) Redemption.
 
(i) Optional Redemption. The Preferred Stock may be redeemed, in whole or in
part, at any time after December 31, 2016, at the option of the Corporation,
upon giving notice of redemption pursuant to paragraph (d)(iii) below, at a
redemption price per share equal to the sum of (X) the Liquidation Preference
per share of the Preferred Stock plus (Y) an amount per share equal to accrued
but unpaid dividends not previously added to the Liquidation Preference on such
share of Preferred Stock from and including the immediately preceding Dividend
Payment Date to but excluding the date of redemption.
 
(ii) Redemption at the Option of the Holder. On and at any time after December
31, 2016, each holder of the Preferred Stock shall have the right, by providing
written notice to the Corporation to require the Corporation to repurchase all
or any part of such holder’s Preferred Stock at a purchase price per share equal
to the sum of (X) the Liquidation Preference per share of the Preferred Stock
plus (Y) an amount equal to accrued but unpaid dividends not previously added to
the Liquidation Preference per share on such share of Preferred Stock from and
including the immediately preceding Dividend Payment Date to but excluding the
date of redemption.
 
 
B-4

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 
 
(iii) Notice of Redemption at the Option of the Corporation. Notice of every
redemption of shares of Preferred Stock pursuant to paragraph (d)(i) shall be
given by first class mail, postage prepaid, addressed to the holders of record
of the shares to be redeemed at their respective last addresses appearing on the
books of the Corporation. Such mailing shall be at least 30 days and not more
than 60 days before the date fixed for redemption. Any notice mailed as provided
in this paragraph (d)(iii) shall be conclusively presumed to have been duly
given, whether or not the holder receives such notice, but failure duly to give
such notice by mail, or any defect in such notice or in the mailing thereof, to
any holder of shares of Preferred Stock designated for redemption shall not
affect the validity of the proceedings for the redemption of any other shares of
Preferred Stock. Each notice of redemption given to a holder shall state: (1)
the redemption date; (2) the number of shares of the Preferred Stock to be
redeemed and, if less than all the shares held by such holder are to be
redeemed, the number of such shares to be redeemed from such holder; (3) the
redemption price; and (4) the place or places where certificates for such shares
are to be surrendered for payment of the redemption price.
 
(iv) Partial Redemption. In case of any redemption of part of the shares of
Preferred Stock at the time outstanding, the shares to be redeemed shall be
selected pro rata. Subject to the provisions hereof, the Corporation shall have
full power and authority to prescribe the terms and conditions upon which shares
of Preferred Stock shall be redeemed from time to time. If fewer than all the
shares represented by any certificate are redeemed, a new certificate shall be
issued representing the unredeemed shares without charge to the holder thereof.
 
(v) Effectiveness of Redemption. If notice of redemption has been duly given and
if on or before the redemption date specified in the notice all funds necessary
for the redemption have been deposited by the Corporation, in trust for the pro
rata benefit of the holders of the shares called for redemption, with a bank or
trust company doing business in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York,
and having a capital and surplus of at least $500 million and selected by the
Board of Directors, so as to be and continue to be available solely therefor,
then, notwithstanding that any certificate for any share so called for
redemption has not been surrendered for cancellation, on and after the
redemption date dividends shall cease to accrue on all shares so called for
redemption, all shares so called for redemption shall no longer be deemed
outstanding and all rights with respect to such shares shall forthwith on such
redemption date cease and terminate, except only the right of the holders
thereof to receive the amount payable on such redemption from such bank or trust
company, without interest. Any funds unclaimed at the end of three years from
the redemption date shall, to the extent permitted by law, be released to the
Corporation, after which time the holders of the shares so called for redemption
shall look only to the Corporation for payment of the redemption price of such
shares.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

(e) Exchange Rights.
 
(i) Optional Exchange Right. Each share of Preferred Stock may be exchanged on
any date, from time to time, at the option of the holder thereof, into the
number of shares of Parent Stock equal to the quotient of (i) the sum of (A) the
Liquidation Preference plus (B) an amount per share equal to accrued but unpaid
dividends not previously added to the Liquidation Preference on such share of
Preferred Stock from and including the immediately preceding Dividend Payment
Date to but excluding the exchange date, divided by (ii) 1,000, multiplied by
the Exchange Rate in effect at such time. The right of exchange attaching to any
shares of Preferred Stock may be exercised by the holders thereof by delivering
the shares to be exchanged to the office of the Corporation, accompanied by a
duly signed and completed notice of exchange in form reasonably satisfactory to
the Corporation. The exchange date shall be the date on which the shares of
Preferred Stock and the duly signed and completed notice of exchange are
received by the Corporation. The Person entitled to receive the Parent Stock
issuable upon such exchange shall be treated for all purposes as the record
holder or holders of such Parent Stock as of such exchange date, and such Person
or Persons shall cease to be a record holder of the Preferred Stock on that
date. As promptly as practicable on or after the exchange date, the Corporation
shall deliver the number of whole shares of Parent Stock issuable upon exchange,
with any fractional shares (after aggregating all Preferred Stock being
exchanged on such date) rounded down to whole shares. Such delivery shall be
made, at the option of the applicable holder, in certificated form or by
book-entry. Any such certificate or certificates shall be delivered by the
Corporation to the appropriate holder on a book-entry basis or by mailing
certificates evidencing the shares to the holders at their respective addresses
as set forth in the exchange notice.
 
(ii) Reservation of Common Stock. The Parent has duly reserved out of its
authorized and unissued Parent Stock, solely for issuance upon the exchange of
the Preferred Stock at the instruction of the Corporation, such number of shares
of Parent Stock as shall from time to time be issuable upon the exchange of all
of the shares of Preferred Stock then outstanding. Any shares of Parent Stock
issued upon exchange of Preferred Stock shall be (i) duly authorized, validly
issued and fully paid and nonassessable, (ii) shall rank pari passu with the
other shares of Parent Stock outstanding from time to time and (iii) shall be
approved for listing on the principal securities exchange on which the Parent
Stock is listed or admitted to trading.
 
(iii) Transfer Taxes. The Corporation shall pay any and all taxes that may be
payable in respect of the issue or delivery of shares of Parent Stock on
exchange of Preferred Stock. The Corporation shall not, however, be required to
pay any tax which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the
issue and delivery of shares of Parent Stock in a name other than that in which
the Preferred Stock so exchanged were registered, and no such issue or delivery
shall be made unless and until the Person requesting such issue has paid to the
Corporation the amount of any such tax, or has established to the satisfaction
of the Corporation that such tax has been paid.
 
 
B-6

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

(f) Dilution Adjustments. In the event the outstanding shares of Parent Stock
shall be subdivided by stock split, stock dividend, reclassification or
otherwise, into a greater number of shares of Common Stock or the Parent
declares a dividend payable in any right to acquire Common Stock for no
consideration, the Exchange Rate immediately prior to such event shall,
concurrently with the effectiveness of such subdivision, be proportionately
decreased. In the event the outstanding shares of Parent Stock shall be combined
or consolidated by reclassification or otherwise into a lesser number of shares
of Parent Stock, the Exchange Rate then in effect shall, concurrently with the
effectiveness of such combination or consolidation, be proportionately
increased. Upon the occurrence of each adjustment or readjustment of the
Exchange Rate pursuant to this paragraph (f), the Corporation, at its expense,
shall promptly compute such adjustment or readjustment in accordance with the
terms hereof and prepare and furnish to each holder of Preferred Stock a
certificate setting forth such adjustment or readjustment (as well as the
corresponding adjustment in the Exchange Rate) and showing in detail the facts
upon which such adjustment or readjustment is based.

(g) Voting and Approval Rights.
 
(i) Voting. Except as otherwise required by law, the holders of shares of
Preferred Stock are not entitled to vote with respect to matters submitted to a
vote of the stockholders of the Corporation. With respect to any matter
submitted to a vote of the holders of Preferred Stock, each share of Preferred
Stock shall be entitled to one vote.
 
(ii) Approval Rights. So long as any shares of Preferred Stock are outstanding,
in addition to any other vote or consent of stockholders required by law, the
vote or consent of the holders of at least a majority of the shares of Preferred
Stock then outstanding and entitled to vote thereon, given in person or by
proxy, either in writing without a meeting or by vote at any meeting called for
the purpose, shall be necessary for effecting or validating any amendment,
alteration or repeal of any provision of the Certificate of Incorporation or
By-laws so as to adversely affect the relative rights, preferences, privileges
or powers of the Preferred Stock. No vote or consent of the holders of Preferred
Stock if, at or prior to the time when any such vote or consent would otherwise
be required, all outstanding shares of Preferred Stock shall have been redeemed,
or shall have been called for redemption upon proper notice and sufficient funds
shall have been deposited in trust for such redemption, in each case pursuant to
paragraph (d) above.

(h) Reorganization Events.
 
(i) In the event of:
 
(X) any consolidation or merger of the Parent with or into another Person or of
another Person with or into the Parent;
 
(Y) any sale, transfer, lease or conveyance to another Person of the property of
the Parent as an entirety or substantially as an entirety; or
 
(Z) any statutory share exchange of the Parent with another Person (other than
in connection with a merger or acquisition),
 
 
B-7

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 
 
in each case in which holders of Parent Stock would be entitled to receive cash,
securities or other property for their shares of Parent Stock (any such event
specified in this paragraph (h)(i) a “Reorganization Event”), each share of
Preferred Stock outstanding immediately prior to such Reorganization Event
shall, without the consent of the holder thereof, become convertible into the
cash, securities and other property receivable in such Reorganization Event by a
holder of Parent Stock that was not the counterparty to the Reorganization Event
or an affiliate of such other party (such cash, securities and other property,
the “Exchange Property”).
 
(ii) In the event that holders of the shares of the Parent Stock have the
opportunity to elect the form of consideration to be received in such
transaction, the “Exchange Property” that holders of the Preferred Stock shall
be entitled to receive shall be determined by the holders of a majority of the
outstanding shares of Preferred Stock. The number of units of Exchange Property
for each share of Preferred Stock exchanged following the effective date of such
Reorganization Event shall be determined from among the choices made available
to the holders of the Parent Stock based on the Exchange Rate then in effect on
the applicable exchange date, determined as if the references to a “shares of
Parent Stock” in this certificate were to “units of Exchange Property.”
 
(iii) The above provisions of this paragraph (h) shall similarly apply to
successive Reorganization Events. The Corporation shall ensure that the Parent
will not enter into any agreement that would effectuate a Reorganization Event
that does not provide that the Preferred Stock shall be outstanding as a class
of preferred stock of the surviving company after giving effect to any such
Reorganization Event (but, in any event, convertible into Exchange Property in
the manner described in this paragraph (h)).
 
(iv) The Corporation shall, within 20 days of the occurrence of any
Reorganization Event, provide written notice to the holders of the Preferred
Stock of the occurrence of such event and of the kind and amount of the cash,
securities or other property that constitutes the Exchange Property. Failure to
deliver such notice shall not affect the operation of this paragraph (h) or the
validity of any Reorganization Event.
 
(i) Record Holders. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the
Corporation may deem and treat the record holder of any share of the Preferred
Stock as the true and lawful owner thereof for all purposes, and the Corporation
shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary.
 
(j) Replacement Certificates. The Corporation shall replace any mutilated
certificate at the holder’s expense upon surrender of that certificate to the
Corporation. The Corporation shall replace certificates that become destroyed,
stolen or lost at the holder’s expense upon delivery to the Corporation of
reasonably satisfactory evidence that the certificate has been destroyed, stolen
or lost, together with any indemnity that may be required by the Corporation.

provided, however, that in the event disclosure is required by applicable law,
Employee shall provide the Company with prompt notice of such requirement prior
to making any such disclosure, so that the Company may seek an appropriate
protective order. At the request of the Company at any time, Employee agrees to
deliver to the Company all Confidential Information that Employee may possess or
control. Employee agrees that all Confidential Information of the Company
(whether now or hereafter existing) conceived, discovered or made by Employee
during the period of Employee’s employment by the Company exclusively belongs to
the Company (and not to Employee), and upon request by the Company for specified
Confidential Information, Employee will promptly disclose such Confidential
Information to the Company and perform all actions reasonably requested by the
Company to establish and confirm such exclusive ownership. Affiliates of the
Company shall be third party beneficiaries of Employee’s obligations under this
Article V. As a result of Employee’s employment by the Company, Employee may
also from time to time have access to, or knowledge of, confidential information
or work product of third parties, such as customers, suppliers, partners, joint
venturers, and the like, of the Company and its affiliates. Employee also agrees
to use reasonable efforts to preserve and protect the confidentiality of such
third party Confidential Information and Work Product.
 
5.4 Ownership by the Company. If, during Employee’s employment by the Company,
Employee creates any work of authorship fixed in any tangible medium of
expression that is the subject matter of copyright (such as videotapes, written
presentations, or acquisitions, computer programs, E-mail, voice mail,
electronic databases, drawings, maps, architectural renditions, models, manuals,
brochures, or the like) relating to the Company’s business, products, or
services, whether such work is created solely by Employee or jointly with others
(whether during business hours or otherwise and whether on the Company’s
premises or otherwise), including any Work Product, the Company shall be deemed
the author of such work if the work is prepared by Employee in the scope of
Employee’s employment; or, if the work relating to the Company’s business,
products, or services is not prepared by Employee within the scope of Employee’s
employment but is specially ordered by the Company as a contribution to a
collective work, as a part of a motion picture or other audiovisual work, as a
translation, as a supplementary work, as a compilation, or as an instructional
text, then the work shall be considered to be work made for hire and the Company
shall be the author of the work. If the work relating to the Company’s business,
products, or services is neither prepared by Employee within the scope of
Employee’s employment nor a work specially ordered that is deemed to be a work
made for hire during Employee’s employment by the Company, then Employee hereby
agrees to assign, and by these presents does assign, to the Company all of
Employee’s worldwide right, title, and interest in and to such work and all
rights of copyright therein.
 
 
C-7

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 
 
5.5 Assistance by Employee. During the period of Employee’s employment by the
Company, Employee shall assist the Company and its nominee, at any time, in the
protection of the Company’s or its affiliates’ worldwide right, title and
interest in and to Confidential Information and Work Product and the execution
of all formal assignment documents requested by the Company or its nominee and
the execution of all lawful oaths and applications for patents and registration
of copyright in the United States and foreign countries. After Employee’s
employment with the Company terminates, at the request from time to time and
expense of the Company or its affiliates, Employee shall reasonably assist the
Company and its nominee, at reasonable times and for reasonable periods and for
reasonable compensation, in the protection of the Company’s or its affiliates’
worldwide right, title and interest in and to Confidential Information and Work
Product and the execution of all formal assignment documents requested by the
Company or its nominee and the execution of all lawful oaths and applications
for patents and registration of copyright in the United States and foreign
countries.
 
5.6 Remedies. Employee acknowledges that money damages would not be a sufficient
remedy for any breach of this Article V by Employee, and the Company shall be
entitled to enforce the provisions of this Article V by specific performance and
injunctive relief as remedies for such breach or any threatened breach. Such
remedies shall not be deemed the exclusive remedies for a breach of this Article
V but shall be in addition to all remedies available at law or in equity,
including the recovery of damages from Employee and Employee’s agents.
 
ARTICLE VI
STATEMENTS CONCERNING THE COMPANY
 
6.1 Statements. Each of the Employer and Employee will refrain, both during the
period of Employee’s employment by the Company and after the termination
thereof, from publishing any oral or written statements about the other party,
any of its affiliates or any of the Company’s or such affiliates’ investors,
stockholders, partners, directors, managers, officers, employees, consultants,
agents or representatives that (a) are slanderous, libelous or defamatory, (b)
disclose Confidential Information (other than Confidential Information that has
become publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Agreement
by Employee) of the Company, any of its affiliates or any of the Company’s or
any such affiliates’ business affairs, investors, stockholders, partners,
directors, managers, officers, employees, consultants, agents or
representatives, or (c) place the other party, any of the Company’s affiliates,
or any of the Company’s or any such affiliates’ directors, managers, officers,
employees, consultants, agents or representatives in a false light before the
public. A violation or threatened violation of this prohibition may be enjoined
by the courts. The rights afforded the parties hereby under this provision are
in addition to any and all rights and remedies otherwise afforded by law. The
foregoing notwithstanding, nothing shall prevent any party from testifying in
any legal proceeding pursuant to a subpoena or other legal process.

ARTICLE VII
EFFECT OF TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT ON COMPENSATION
 
7.1 Effect of Termination of Employment on Compensation.
 
(a) Benefit Obligation and Accrued Obligation Defined. For purposes of this
Agreement, payment of the “Benefit Obligation” shall mean payment by the Company
to Employee (or his designated beneficiary or legal representative, as
applicable), in accordance with the terms of the applicable plan document, of
all vested benefits to which Employee is entitled under the terms of the
employee benefit plans and compensation arrangements in which Employee is a
participant as of the Date of Termination. “Accrued Obligation” means the sum of
(1) Employee’s Base Salary through the Date of Termination, (2) any accrued
vacation pay earned by Employee, and (3) any incurred but unreimbursed expenses
for which Employee is entitled to reimbursement in accordance with Section 4.5,
in each case, to the extent not theretofore paid.
 
(b) Termination of Employee for Cause. If during the Term Employee’s employment
is terminated for Cause, the Company shall pay to Employee the Accrued
Obligation within thirty (30) days following the Date of Termination. Following
such payment, the Company shall have no further obligations to Employee other
than as may be required by law or the terms of an employee benefit plan of the
Company. The Company shall pay Employee the Benefit Obligation at the times
specified in and in accordance with the terms of the applicable employee benefit
plans and compensation arrangements.
 
(c) Termination of Employee by the Company Without Cause or by Employee with
Good Reason. If during the Term Employee’s employment is terminated by the
Company without Cause or by Employee with Good Reason, then Employee shall
receive the following benefits and compensation from the Company:
 
(i) the Company shall pay Employee the Accrued Obligation within thirty (30)
days following the date of Employee’s Date of Termination;
 
(ii) the Company shall pay to Employee an amount equal to Employee’s Base Salary
for 12 months, with such amount payable in 12 equal monthly installments
commencing on the 60th day following Employee’s Date of Termination;
 
(iii) the Company shall pay Employee the Benefit Obligation at the times
specified in and in accordance with the terms of the applicable employee benefit
plans and compensation arrangements.
 
Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither Employee, nor his estate, shall be
permitted to specify the taxable year in which a payment described in this
Section 7.1(c) shall be paid.

(d) General Release of Claims. Payments to Employee under this Article VII
(other than Accrued Obligations and Benefit Obligations) are contingent upon
Employee’s execution of a release, substantially in the form attached hereto as
Exhibit A, within fifty (50) days of Employee’s Date of Termination that is not
revoked by Employee during any applicable revocation period provided in such
release (which shall release and discharge the Company and its affiliates, and
their officers, directors, managers, employees and agents from any and all
claims or causes of action of any kind or character, including but not limited
to all claims or causes of action arising out of Employee’s employment with the
Company or its affiliates or the termination of such employment). Nothing in
this Section 7.1(d) shall be construed to require Employee to execute a release
in any form if Employee does not accept payments described in this Section 7.1
other than the Accrued Obligations and Benefit Obligations.

ARTICLE VIII
COVENANTS AGAINST COMPETITION
 
8.1 Definitions. As used in this Article VIII, the following terms shall have
the following meanings:
 
(a) “Business” means (i) the manufacture, lease or sale of any oilfield services
equipment or products, and (ii) the provision of products or services provided
by the Company or any of its affiliates during the three (3) year period prior
to the Date of Termination. In the event Employee proposes to invest in an
entity that would meet the definition of Business only because of the activities
of an affiliate of the Company, Employee may request a waiver of the provisions
of this Article VIII in writing and the Company many not unreasonably withhold
its consent to such waivers if Employee had only immaterial access to the market
analyses, marketing practices, technology, clients and prospective clients of
the affiliate, and other confidential information, goodwill and trade secrets
that are among the assets of the affiliate.
 
(b) “Governmental Authority” means any governmental, quasi-governmental, state,
county, city or other political subdivision of the United States or any other
country, or any agency, court or instrumentality, foreign or domestic, or
statutory or regulatory body thereof.
 
(c) “Legal Requirement” means any law, statute, code, ordinance, order, rule,
regulation, judgment, decree, injunction, franchise, permit, certificate,
license, authorization, or other directional requirement (including, without
limitation, any of the foregoing that relates to environmental standards or
controls, energy regulations and occupational, safety and health standards or
controls including those arising under environmental laws) of any Governmental
Authority.
 
(d) “Prohibited Period” means the period during which Employee is employed by
the Company hereunder and a period of 12 months following Employee’s Date of
Termination.
 
(e) “Restricted Area” means the United States of America and any other
jurisdiction in which the Company has performed services or otherwise engaged in
activities for the purpose of performing services during the three (3) year
period prior to the Closing Date and any country or subdivision thereof in which
the Company or its affiliates engages in the Business during the Prohibited
Period. With respect to the Business of an affiliate of Company, the term
“Restricted Area” means the trade area of the affiliate existing on the date of
termination of Employee’s employment with the Company.
 
8.2 Non-Competition and Non-Solicitation. Employee presently has specialized
knowledge of the market analyses, marketing practices, technology, clients and
prospective clients of the Company, and other confidential information, goodwill
and trade secrets that were among the assets of the Company prior to the closing
of the Purchase Agreement. Employee acknowledges his expertise and specialized
knowledge of research and development, and other Confidential Information of the
Company. Employee will continue to obtain and develop specialized knowledge of
Confidential Information of the Company and its affiliates and the business of
the Company through his continued involvement in the business of the Company,
including his employment under this Agreement. The Company’s promise to provide
Employee with this Confidential Information is an essential part of the
Company’s agreement to employ Employee pursuant to this Agreement.
 
 
C-10

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 
 
To induce the Purchaser to carry out the Purchase Agreement, and in
consideration of the Company’s promises and undertakings in this Agreement,
including the promise to provide specialized training and knowledge, the promise
to provide Employee access to and control of Confidential Information that the
Company and its affiliates will continue to develop and/or receive and that
Employee will have access to through the Term, and to ensure the protection of
the Company’s and its affiliates’ Confidential Information during Employee’s
employment and thereafter, the Company and Employee agree and covenant that
during the Prohibited Period:

(a) Employee shall not, for whatever reason and with or without cause, either
individually or in partnership or jointly or in conjunction with any Person or
Persons as principal, agent, employee, stockholder, owner, investor, partner or
in any other manner whatsoever (other than a holding of shares listed on a
United States stock exchange or automated quotation system that does not exceed
one percent of the outstanding shares so listed), owner, investor, partner or in
any other manner whatsoever, directly or indirectly, (A) engage in the Business
or otherwise compete with the Company or any of its affiliates in the Business
in the Restricted Area, (B) solicit business from, or provide services to, any
of the customers or accounts of the Company or any of its affiliates in the
Business for the Restricted Area, or (C) become the employee of, or otherwise
render services to or on behalf of, any enterprise where the division or
department in which Employee works competes with such Business of the Company or
any of its affiliates; and
 
(b) Employee shall not, directly or indirectly, either for himself or any other
person, (A) induce or attempt to induce any employee of the Company or any of
its affiliates to leave the employ of the Company or any of its affiliates, (B)
in any way interfere with the relationship between the Company or any of its
affiliates and any employee of the Company or any of its affiliates, (C) employ,
or otherwise engage as an employee, independent contractor or otherwise, any
employee of the Company or any of its affiliates, or (D) induce or attempt to
induce any customer, supplier, licensee or business relation of the Company or
any of its affiliates to cease doing business with the Company or any of its
affiliates or in any way interfere with the relationship between any customer,
supplier, licensee or business relation of the Company or any of its affiliates.
 
8.3 Relief. Employee and the Company agree and acknowledge that the limitations
as to time, geographical area and scope of activity to be restrained as set
forth in Section 8.2 hereof are reasonable and do not impose any greater
restraint than is necessary to protect the legitimate business interests of the
Company. Employee and the Company also acknowledge that money damages would not
be sufficient remedy for any breach of this Article VIII by Employee, and the
Company or its affiliates shall be entitled to enforce the provisions of this
Article VIII by terminating payments then owing to Employee under this Agreement
or otherwise and to seek in a court of competent jurisdiction specific
performance and injunctive relief as remedies for such breach or any threatened
breach; provided, however, that such termination of payments owing to Executive
under this Agreement or otherwise may not occur in the absence of a breach of
this Article VIII by Employee. Such remedies shall not be deemed the exclusive
remedies for a breach of this Article VIII but shall be in addition to all
remedies available at law or in equity, including the recovery of damages from
Employee and Employee’s agents.
 
 
C-11

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 
 
8.4 Reasonableness; Enforcement. Employee hereby represents to the Company that
Employee has read and understands, and agrees to be bound by, the terms of this
Article VIII. Employee acknowledges that the duration of the covenants contained
in this Article VIII are the result of arm’s-length bargaining and are fair and
reasonable in light of (a) the nature of the operations of the Company’s
Business, (b) Employee’s level of control over and contact with the Company’s
Business in all jurisdictions in which it is conducted, and (c) the amount of
compensation, trade secrets and Confidential Information that Employee is
receiving in connection with the performance of Employee’s duties hereunder. It
is the desire and intent of the parties that the provisions of this Article VIII
be enforced to the fullest extent permitted under applicable Legal Requirements,
whether now or hereafter in effect and therefore, to the extent permitted by
applicable Legal Requirements, Employee and the Company hereby waive any
provision of applicable Legal Requirements that would render any provision of
this Article VIII invalid or unenforceable. It is specifically agreed that the
period specified in Section 8.2 shall be computed by excluding from that
computation any time during which Employee is in violation of any provision of
Section 8.2.
 
8.5 Reformation. The Company and Employee agree that the foregoing restrictions
are reasonable under the circumstances and that any breach of the covenants
contained in this Article VIII would cause irreparable injury to the Company.
Employee expressly represents that enforcement of the restrictive covenants set
forth in this Article VIII will not impose an undue hardship upon Employee or
any person or entity affiliated with Employee. Nevertheless, if any of the
aforesaid restrictions are found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be
unreasonable, or overly broad as to time, or otherwise unenforceable, the
parties intend for the restrictions herein set forth to be modified by the court
making such determination so as to be reasonable and enforceable and, as so
modified, to be fully enforced. By agreeing to this contractual modification
prospectively at this time, the Company and Employee intend to make this
provision enforceable under the law or laws of all applicable jurisdictions so
that the entire agreement not to compete and this Agreement as prospectively
modified shall remain in full force and effect and shall not be rendered void or
illegal. Such modification shall not affect the payments made to Employee under
this Agreement.

manner, with the Company and its attorneys, both during and after the
termination of his employment, in connection with any litigation or other
proceeding arising out of or relating to matters in which Employee was involved

such cooperation does not unduly interfere (as determined by Employee in good
faith) with Employee’s personal or professional schedule.
 
9.4 Dispute Resolution. Except as provided otherwise in Sections 5.6, 6.1 and
8.3, all claims, demands, causes of action, disputes, controversies or other
matters in question (“Claims”) arising out of this Agreement or Employee’s

contract, tort or otherwise and whether provided by statute, equity or common
law, that the Company may have against Employee or that Employee may have

The first of those meetings shall take place within 30 days of the date of the
disputing party’s notice. If the Claim has not been resolved within 60 days of
the date of the disputing party’s notice, or if the parties fail to agree on a

whether the Claim involves claims that the Agreement is unlawful, unenforceable,
void, or voidable or involves claims under statutory, civil or common law. Any
arbitration shall be conducted in accordance with the then-current Employment
Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”). If a party
refuses to honor its obligations under this Section 9.4(b), the other party may
compel arbitration any federal or state court of competent jurisdiction. The
arbitrator shall apply the substantive law of Texas (excluding choice-of-law
principles that might call for the application of some other jurisdiction’s law)
or federal law, or both as applicable to the Claims asserted. The arbitrator
shall have exclusive authority to resolve any dispute relating to the
interpretation, applicability or enforceability or formation of this Agreement
(including this Section 9.4), including any claim that all or part of the
Agreement is void or voidable and any Claim that an issue is not subject to
arbitration. The results of arbitration will be binding and conclusive on the
parties hereto. Any arbitrator’s award or finding or any judgment or verdict
thereon will be final and unappealable. The seat of arbitration shall be in
Harris County in the State of Texas, and unless agreed otherwise by the parties,
all hearings shall take place at the seat. Any and all of the arbitrator’s
orders, decisions and awards may be enforceable in, and judgment upon any award
rendered by the arbitrator may be confirmed and entered by any federal or state
court having jurisdiction. All evidentiary privileges under applicable state and
federal law, including attorney-client, work product and party communication
privileges, shall be preserved and protected. The decision of the arbitrator
will be binding on all parties. Arbitrations will be conducted in such a manner
that the final decision of the arbitrator will be made and provided to Employee
and the Company no later than 120 days after a matter is submitted to
arbitration. All proceedings conducted pursuant to this agreement to arbitrate,
including any order, decision or award of the arbitrators, shall be kept
confidential by all parties. Each party shall pay its own attorneys fees and
disbursements and other costs of arbitration. The arbitrator’s fees shall be
borne by the nonprevailing party or by such party or parties as the arbitrator
shall determine. EMPLOYEE ACKNOWLEDGES THAT, BY SIGNING THIS AGREEMENT, EMPLOYEE
IS WAIVING ANY RIGHT THAT EMPLOYEE MAY HAVE TO A JURY TRIAL OR A COURT TRIAL OF
ANY SERVICE RELATED CLAIM ALLEGED BY EMPLOYEE.
 
9.5 No Waiver. No failure by either party hereto at any time to give notice of
any breach by the other party of, or to require compliance with, any condition
or provision of this Agreement shall be deemed a waiver of similar or dissimilar
provisions or conditions at the same or at any prior or subsequent time.
 
9.6 Severability. If a court of competent jurisdiction determines that any
provision of this Agreement is invalid or unenforceable, then the invalidity or
unenforceability of that provision shall not affect the validity or
enforceability of any other provision of this Agreement, and all other
provisions shall remain in full force and effect.
 
9.7 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts,
each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but all of which together will
constitute one and the same Agreement.
 
9.8 Withholding of Taxes and Other Employee Deductions. The Company may withhold
from any benefits and payments made pursuant to this Agreement all federal,
state, city and other applicable taxes and withholdings as may be required

9.10 Gender and Plurals. Wherever the context so requires, the masculine gender
includes the feminine or neuter, and the singular number includes the plural and
conversely.
 
9.11 Affiliate. As used in this Agreement, the term “affiliate” as used with
respect to a particular person or entity shall mean any other person or entity
which owns or controls, is owned or controlled by, or is under common ownership
or control with, such particular person or entity.
 
9.12 Successors. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit
of the Company and any successor of the Company. Except as provided in the
preceding sentence, this Agreement, and the rights and obligations of the
parties hereunder, are personal and neither this Agreement, nor any right,
benefit or obligation of either party hereto, shall be subject to voluntary or
involuntary assignment, alienation or transfer, whether by operation of law or
otherwise, without the prior written consent of the other party. In addition,
any payment owed to Employee hereunder after the date of Employee’s death shall
be paid to Employee’s estate.

preceding sentence, all understandings and agreements preceding the date of
execution of this Agreement and relating to the subject matter hereof are hereby
null and void and of no further force and effect.
 
9.15 Modification; Waiver. Any modification to or waiver of this Agreement shall
be effective only if it is in writing and signed by the parties to this
Agreement; provided that the Company may, with prospective or retroactive
effect, amend this Agreement at any time (to the extent Employee is not
adversely affected by such amendment), if determined to be reasonably necessary
to comply with administrative guidance issued under Section 409A of the Code or
to comply with the provisions of Section 409A of the Code.
 
9.16 Compliance with Section 409A of the Code. Each payment under this
Agreement, including each payment in a series of installment payments, is
intended to be a separate payment for purposes of Treas. Reg. § 1.409A-2(b), and
is intended to be: (i) exempt from Section 409A of the Code, the regulations and
other binding guidance promulgated thereunder (“Section 409A”), including, but
not limited to, by compliance with the short-term deferral exemption as
specified in Treas. Reg. § 1.409A-1(b)(4) and the involuntary separation pay
exception within the meaning of Treas. Reg. § 1.409A-1(b)(9)(iii), or (ii) in
compliance with Section 409A, including, but not limited to, being paid pursuant
to a fixed schedule or specified date pursuant to Treas. Reg. § 1.409A-3(a) and
the provisions of this Agreement will be administered, interpreted and construed
accordingly. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Agreement, if the
payment of any severance compensation or severance benefits under Article VII
would be subject to additional taxes and interest under Section 409A because the
timing of such payment is not delayed as provided in Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of
the Code, and Employee constitutes a specified employee within the meaning of
Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code, then any such payments that Employee would
otherwise be entitled to during the first six months following Employee’s
separation from service within the meaning of Section 409A(a)(2)(A)(i) of the
Code shall be accumulated and paid on the date that is six months after
Employee’s separation from service (or if such payment date does not fall on a
business day of the Company, the next following business day of the Company), or
such earlier date upon which such amount can be paid under Section 409A without
being subject to such additional taxes and interest.

2. Piggyback Registration.

(a) In the event that Parent decides at any time to register any of the Parent’s
securities either for the Parent’s own account or the account of a security
holder or holders, other than a registration on Form S-8 relating solely to
employee benefit plans, the offer and sale of debt securities, or a corporate
reorganization or other transaction on Form S-4 (or any successor form), then
the Parent will:
 
(i) promptly give to each Holder written notice thereof; and
 
(ii) use its best efforts to include in such registration (and any related
qualification under blue sky securities laws or other compliance) and include in
any underwriting involved therein all the Registrable Securities specified in a
written request or requests made by any Holder and received by the Parent within
30 days after written notice is delivered by the Parent. Such request by a
Holder may specify all or a part of such Holder’s Registrable Securities. If a
Holder decides not to include all of its Registrable Securities in any
registration statement thereafter filed by the Parent, then such Holder shall
nevertheless continue to have the right to include any of its Registrable
Securities in any subsequent registration statement or registration statements
as may be filed by the Parent with respect to offerings of its securities, all
upon the terms and conditions set forth herein.
 
 
D-4

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 
 
(b) If the registration for which the Parent gives notice is for a registered
public offering involving an underwriting, then the Parent will so advise the
Holders. In such event, any Holder’s right to registration pursuant to this
Section 2 will be conditioned upon such Holder’s participation in such
underwriting and each Holder participating shall complete and execute all
questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities, underwriting agreements and
other documents reasonably required under the terms of such underwriting
arrangements, and the inclusion of such Holder’s Registrable Securities in the
underwriting to the extent provided herein. All Holders proposing to distribute
their Registrable Securities through such underwriting will (together with the
Parent and the other holders of Parent securities with registration rights to
participate therein) enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with
the representative of the underwriter or underwriters selected by the Parent and
reasonably acceptable to a majority in interest of the Holders’ Registrable
Securities included in such underwriting.
 
(c) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 2, if the underwriters’
representative advises the Parent in writing that marketing factors require a
limitation on the number of shares to be underwritten, then the underwriters’
representative may (subject to the limitations set forth below) limit the number
of Registrable Securities to be included in, the registration and underwriting,
but in no event shall the amount of securities of the selling Holders included
in the offering be reduced unless the securities of any other selling
stockholders included in the offering are first excluded. The Parent will so
advise all Holders of securities requesting registration, and the number of
shares of securities that are entitled to be included in the registration and
underwriting will, subject to the immediately preceding sentence, be allocated
first to the Parent for securities being sold for the Parent’s own account and
thereafter to the Holders. If any Person does not agree to the terms of any such
underwriting, then such Person will be excluded from the underwriting by written
notice from the Parent or the underwriter. Any Registrable Securities or other
securities excluded or withdrawn from such underwriting will be withdrawn from
such registration. To facilitate the allocation of shares in accordance with the
foregoing provisions, the Parent or the underwriter(s) may round the number of
shares allocated to any Holder to the nearest 100 shares.
 
(d) The piggyback registration rights granted under this Section 2 shall
automatically terminate as of the date and time at which all of the Registrable
Securities are Freely Tradable. 
 
3. Registration Procedures. In connection with the Parent’s registration
obligations hereunder, the Parent shall:

 
D-5

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 
 
(a) Not less than five Trading Days prior to the filing of a Registration
Statement or any related Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto, the
Parent shall furnish to the Holders copies of all such documents proposed to be
filed, which documents (other than those incorporated by reference) will be
subject to the review of such Holders. Except as required by law, the Parent
shall not file a Registration Statement or any such Prospectus or any amendments
or supplements thereto to which the Electing Holders shall reasonably object in
good faith.
 
(b) Use commercially reasonable efforts to (i) prepare and file with the
Commission such amendments, including post-effective amendments, to each
Registration Statement and the Prospectus used in connection therewith as may be
necessary to keep such Registration Statement continuously effective as to the
applicable Registrable Securities and prepare and file with the Commission such
additional Registration Statements in order to register for resale under the
Securities Act all of the Registrable Securities; (ii) cause the related
Prospectus to be amended or supplemented by any required Prospectus supplement,
and as so supplemented or amended to be filed pursuant to Rule 424; and (iii)
respond as promptly as reasonably possible, and in any event within ten Trading
Days, to any comments received from the Commission with respect to each
Registration Statement or any amendment thereto and, as promptly as reasonably
possible provide the Holders true and complete copies of all correspondence from
and to the Commission relating to such Registration Statement that pertains to
the Holders as Selling Stockholders but not any comments that would result in
the disclosure to the Holders of material and non-public information concerning
the Parent or its subsidiaries.
 
(c) Comply in all material respects with the provisions of the Securities Act
and the Exchange Act with respect to the Registration Statements and the
disposition of all Registrable Securities covered by each Registration
Statement.
 
(d) Notify the Holders as promptly as reasonably possible (and, in the case of
(i)(A) below, not less than three Trading Days prior to such filing) and (if
requested by any such Person) confirm such notice in writing no later than one
Trading Day following the day: (i)(A) when a Prospectus or any Prospectus
supplement or post-effective amendment to a Registration Statement is proposed
to be filed; (B) when the Commission notifies the Parent whether there will be a
“review” of such Registration Statement and whenever the Commission comments in
writing on such Registration Statement (in which case the Parent shall provide
true and complete copies thereof and all written responses thereto to each of
the Holders that pertain to the Holders as a Selling Stockholder or to the Plan
of Distribution, but not information which the Parent believes would constitute
material and non-public information); and (C) with respect to each Registration
Statement or any post-effective amendment, when the same has been declared
effective; (ii) of any request by the Commission or any other Federal or state
governmental authority for amendments or supplements to a Registration Statement
or Prospectus or for additional information that pertains to the Holders as
Selling Stockholders or the Plan of Distribution; (iii) of the issuance by the
Commission of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of a Registration
Statement covering any or all of the Registrable Securities or the initiation of
any Proceedings for that purpose; (iv) of the receipt by the Parent of any
notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification or exemption
from qualification of any of the Registrable Securities for sale in any
jurisdiction, or the initiation or threatening of any Proceeding for such
purpose; and (v) of the occurrence of any event or passage of time that makes
the financial statements included in a Registration Statement ineligible for
inclusion therein or any statement made in such Registration Statement or
Prospectus or any document incorporated or deemed to be incorporated therein by
reference untrue in any material respect or that requires any revisions to such
Registration Statement, Prospectus or other documents so that, in the case of
such Registration Statement or the Prospectus, as the case may be, it will not
contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any 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.
 
 
D-6

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 
 
(e) Use its commercially reasonable efforts to avoid the issuance of, or, if
issued, obtain the withdrawal of (i) any order suspending the effectiveness of a
Registration Statement, or (ii) any suspension of the qualification (or
exemption from qualification) of any of the Registrable Securities for sale in
any jurisdiction, at the earliest practicable moment.
 
(f) Furnish to each Holder, without charge, at least one conformed copy of each
Registration Statement and each amendment thereto and all exhibits to the extent
requested by such Person (including those incorporated by reference) promptly
after the filing of such documents with the Commission; provided, that the
Parent shall have no obligation to provide any document pursuant to this clause
that is available on the EDGAR system.
 
(g) Promptly deliver to each Holder, without charge, as many copies of each
Prospectus or Prospectuses (including each form of prospectus) and each
amendment or supplement thereto as such Persons may reasonably request. The
Parent hereby consents to the use of such Prospectus and each amendment or
supplement thereto by each of the selling Holders in connection with the
offering and sale of the Registrable Securities covered by such Prospectus and
any amendment or supplement thereto.
 
(h) Prior to any public offering of Registrable Securities, use its commercially
reasonable efforts to register or qualify or cooperate with the selling Holders
in connection with the registration or qualification (or exemption from such
registration or qualification) of such Registrable Securities for offer and sale
under the securities or Blue Sky laws of those jurisdictions within the United
States as any Holder reasonably requests in writing to keep each such
registration or qualification (or exemption therefrom) effective and to do any
and all other acts or things necessary or advisable to enable the disposition in
such jurisdictions of the Registrable Securities covered by the Registration
Statements; provided, that the Parent shall not be required to qualify generally
to do business in any jurisdiction where it is not then so qualified or subject
the Parent to any material tax in any such jurisdiction where it is not then so
subject.
 
 
D-7

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 
 
(i) Cooperate with the Holders to facilitate the timely preparation and delivery
of certificates representing Registrable Securities to be delivered to a
transferee pursuant to the Registration Statements, which certificates shall be
free, to the extent permitted by the Purchase Agreement, of all restrictive
legends, and to enable such Registrable Securities to be in such denominations
and registered in such names as any such Holders may request. In connection
therewith, if required by the Parent’s transfer agent, the Parent shall promptly
after the effectiveness of the Registration Statement cause an opinion of
counsel as to the effectiveness of the Registration Statement to be delivered to
and maintained with its transfer agent, together with any other authorizations,
certificates and directions required by the transfer agent which authorize and
direct the transfer agent to issue such Registrable Securities without legend
upon sale by the holder of such shares of Registrable Securities under the
Registration Statement.
 
(j) As promptly as reasonably possible, prepare a supplement or amendment,
including a post-effective amendment, if required by applicable law, to the
affected Registration Statements or a supplement to the related Prospectus or
any document incorporated or deemed to be incorporated therein by reference, and
file any other required document so that, as thereafter delivered, no
Registration Statement nor any Prospectus will 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, in light of the circumstances under
which they were made, not misleading.
 
(k) In connection with filing any Registration Statement, the Parent may require
each selling Holder to furnish to the Parent a certified statement as to the
securities of the Parent (including shares of Common Stock and Preferred Stock)
beneficially owned by such Holder and any Affiliate thereof.
 
(l) In the event the Holders seek to complete an underwritten offering, for a
reasonable period prior to the filing of any Registration Statement and
throughout the period during which Registrable Securities are sold thereunder,
make available upon reasonable notice at the Parent’s principal place of
business or such other reasonable place for inspection by the Holders (and the
managing underwriter or underwriters selected in accordance with Section 3(m)),
such financial and other information and books and records of the Parent, and
cause the officers, employees, counsel and independent certified public
accountants of the Parent to respond to such inquiries, as shall be reasonably
necessary (and in the case of counsel, not violate an attorney-client privilege,
in such counsel’s reasonable belief), in the judgment of legal counsel to the
Holders (and legal counsel for such managing underwriter or underwriters), to
conduct a reasonable investigation within the meaning of Section 11 of the
Securities Act; provided, however, that the foregoing inspection and information
gathering on behalf of the Holders (and any managing underwriter or
underwriters) shall be conducted by legal counsel to the Holders (and legal
counsel to such managing underwriter or underwriters); and provided further that
each such party shall be required to maintain in confidence and not to disclose
to any other Person any information or records reasonably designated by the
Parent as being confidential, until such time as (A) such information becomes a
matter of public record (whether by virtue of its inclusion in the Registration
Statement or in any other manner other than through the release of such
information by any Person afforded access to such information pursuant hereto),
or (B) such Person shall be required so to disclose such information pursuant to
a subpoena or order of any court or other governmental agency or body having
jurisdiction over the matter (subject to the requirements of such order, and
only after such Person shall have given the Parent prompt prior written notice
of such requirement).
 
 
D-8

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 
 
(m) The Holders may distribute the Registrable Securities by means of an
underwritten offering; provided that (i) the Electing Holders provide written
notice to the Parent of their intention to distribute Registrable Securities by
means of an underwritten offering, (ii) the managing underwriter or underwriters
thereof shall be designated by the Electing Holders (provided, however, that
such designated managing underwriter or underwriters shall be reasonably
acceptable to the Parent), (iii) each Holder participating in such underwritten
offering agrees to sell such Holder’s Registrable Securities on the basis
provided in any underwriting arrangements approved by the persons entitled
selecting the managing underwriter or underwriters hereunder and (iv) each
Holder participating in such underwritten offering completes and executes all
questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities, underwriting agreements and
other documents reasonably required under the terms of such underwriting
arrangements. The Parent hereby agrees with each Holder that, in connection with
any underwritten offering in accordance with the terms hereof, it will negotiate
in good faith and execute all indemnities, underwriting agreements and other
documents reasonably required under the terms of such underwriting arrangements,
including using all commercially reasonable efforts to procure customary legal
opinions and auditor “comfort” letters.
 
4. Registration Expenses. All fees and expenses incident to the Parent’s
performance of or compliance with its obligations under this Agreement
(excluding any underwriting discounts and selling commissions, but including all
legal fees and expenses of one legal counsel to the Holders) shall be borne by
the Parent whether or not any Registrable Securities are sold pursuant to a
Registration Statement. The fees and expenses referred to in the foregoing

incurred in connection with the listing of the Registrable Securities on any
securities exchange as required hereunder.

controls any such Holder, underwriter, broker-dealer or selling agent (within

Act) and the officers, directors, agents and employees of each such controlling
Person, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, from and against any
and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, costs (including, without

any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any
Registration Statement, any Prospectus or any form of prospectus (including,
without limitation, any “issuer free writing prospectus” as defined in Rule 433)
or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any preliminary prospectus, or
arising out of or relating to any omission or alleged omission of a material
fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein
(in the case of any Prospectus or form of prospectus (including, without
limitation, any “issuer free writing prospectus” as defined in Rule 433) or
supplement thereto, in light of the circumstances under which they were made)
not misleading, except to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue
statements, alleged untrue statements, omissions or alleged omissions are based
solely upon information regarding such Holder, underwriter, broker-dealer or
selling agent furnished in writing to the Parent by such Person expressly for
use therein pursuant to Section 3(k). The Parent shall notify the Holders
promptly of the institution, threat or assertion of any Proceeding of which the
Parent is aware in connection with the transactions contemplated by this

who controls the Parent (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act
and Section 20 of the Exchange Act), and the directors, officers, agents or
employees of such controlling Persons, to the fullest extent permitted by
applicable law, from and against all Losses, as incurred, arising solely out of
or based solely upon any untrue statement of a material fact contained in any
Registration Statement, any Prospectus, or any form of prospectus (including,
without limitation, any “issuer free writing prospectus” as defined in Rule
433), or in any amendment or supplement thereto, or arising solely out of or
based solely upon any omission of a material fact required to be stated therein

any form of prospectus (including, without limitation, any “issuer free writing
prospectus” as defined in Rule 433) or supplement thereto, in light of the
circumstances under which they were made) not misleading to the extent, but only
to the extent, that such untrue statements or omissions are based solely upon
information regarding such Holder furnished in writing to the Parent by such
Holder expressly for use therein. In no event shall the liability of any selling
Holder hereunder be greater in amount than the dollar amount of the net proceeds
received by such Holder upon the sale of the Registrable Securities giving rise
to such indemnification obligation.
 
 
D-10

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 
 
(c) Conduct of Indemnification Proceedings. If any Proceeding shall be brought
or asserted against any Person entitled to indemnity hereunder (an “Indemnified
Party”), such Indemnified Party shall promptly notify the Person from whom
indemnity is sought (the “Indemnifying Party”) in writing, and the Indemnifying
Party shall assume the defense thereof, including the employment of counsel
reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party and the payment of all fees and
expenses incurred in connection with defense thereof; provided, that the failure
of any Indemnified Party to give such notice shall not relieve the Indemnifying
Party of its obligations or liabilities pursuant to this Agreement, except (and
only) to the extent that it shall be finally determined by a court of competent
jurisdiction (which determination is not subject to appeal or further review)
that such failure shall have proximately and materially adversely prejudiced the
Indemnifying Party. An Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate
counsel in any such Proceeding and to participate in the defense thereof, but
the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such
Indemnified Party or Parties unless: (1) the Indemnifying Party has agreed in
writing to pay such fees and expenses; (2) the Indemnifying Party shall have
failed promptly to assume the defense of such Proceeding and to employ counsel
reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Party in any such Proceeding; or (3)
the named parties to any such Proceeding (including any impleaded parties)
include both such Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party, and such
Indemnified Party shall have been advised by counsel that a conflict of interest
is likely to exist if the same counsel were to represent such Indemnified Party
and the Indemnifying Party (in which case, if such Indemnified Party notifies
the Indemnifying Party in writing that it elects to employ separate counsel at
the expense of the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnifying Party shall not have the
right to assume the defense thereof and such counsel shall be at the expense of
the Indemnifying Party); provided that the Indemnifying Party shall not be
liable for the fees and expenses of more than one separate firm of attorneys at
any time for all Indemnified Parties. The Indemnifying Party shall not be liable
for any settlement of any such Proceeding effected without its written consent,
which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. No Indemnifying Party shall,
without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, effect any
settlement of any pending Proceeding in respect of which any Indemnified Party
is a party, unless such settlement includes an unconditional release of such
Indemnified Party from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of
such Proceeding. All fees and expenses of the Indemnified Party (including
reasonable fees and expenses to the extent incurred in connection with
investigating or preparing to defend such Proceeding in a manner not
inconsistent with this Section) shall be paid to the Indemnified Party, as
incurred, promptly upon receipt of written notice thereof to the Indemnifying
Party (regardless of whether it is ultimately determined that an Indemnified
Party is not entitled to indemnification hereunder; provided that the
Indemnifying Party may require such Indemnified Party to undertake to reimburse
all such fees and expenses to the extent it is finally judicially determined
that such Indemnified Party is not entitled to indemnification hereunder).

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 
 
(d) Contribution. If a claim for indemnification under Section 5(a) or 5(b) is
unavailable to an Indemnified Party (by reason of public policy or otherwise),
then each 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, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the
relative fault of the Indemnifying Party and Indemnified Party in connection
with the actions, statements or omissions that resulted in such Losses as well
as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of such
Indemnifying Party and Indemnified Party shall be determined by reference to,
among other things, whether any action in question, including any untrue or
alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission of a
material fact, has been taken or made by, or relates to information supplied by,
such Indemnifying Party or Indemnified Party, and the parties’ relative intent,
knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such
action, statement or omission. The amount paid or payable by a party as a result
of any Losses shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth
in Section 5(c), any reasonable attorneys’ or other reasonable fees or expenses
incurred by such party in connection with any Proceeding to the extent such
party would have been indemnified for such fees or expenses if the
indemnification provided for in this Section was available to such party in
accordance with its terms. The parties hereto agree that it would not be just
and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 5(d) were determined by
pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation that does not take into
account the equitable considerations referred to in the immediately preceding
paragraph. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 5(d), no Holder shall
be required to contribute, in the aggregate, any amount in excess of the amount
by which the proceeds actually received by such Holder from the sale of the
Registrable Securities subject to the Proceeding exceeds the amount of any
damages that such Holder 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.
 
The indemnity and contribution agreements contained in this Section are in
addition to any liability that the Indemnifying Parties may have to the
Indemnified Parties and are not in diminution or limitation of the
indemnification provisions under the Purchase Agreement.
 
6. Facilitation of Sales Pursuant to Rule 144. To the extent it shall be
required to do so under the Exchange Act, the Parent shall timely file the
reports required to be filed by it under the Exchange Act or the Securities Act
(including the reports under Sections 13 and 15(d) of the Exchange Act referred
to in subparagraph (c)(1) of Rule 144), and shall take such further action as
any Holder may reasonably request, all to the extent required from time to time
to enable the Holders to sell Registrable Securities without registration under
the Securities Act within the limitations of the exemption provided by Rule 144.
Upon the request of any Holder in connection with that holder’s sale pursuant to
Rule 144, the Parent shall deliver to such Holder a written statement as to
whether it has complied with such requirements.
 
 
D-12

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 
 
7. Market Stand-Off. Each Holder hereby agrees that, if requested in writing by
the managing underwriter, it will not, without the prior written consent of the
managing underwriter, during the period commencing on the date of the final
prospectus relating to registration by the Parent for its own behalf of shares
of its Common Stock or any other equity securities under the Securities Act and
ending on the date specified by the Parent and the managing underwriter (such
period not to exceed 180 days) (i) lend; offer; pledge; sell; contract to sell;
sell any option or contract to purchase; purchase any option or contract to
sell; grant any option, right, or warrant to purchase; or otherwise transfer or
dispose of, directly or indirectly, any shares of Common Stock or any securities
convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable (directly or indirectly)for
Common Stock (whether such shares or any such securities are then owned by the
Holder or are thereafter acquired) or (ii) enter into any swap or other
arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic
consequences of ownership of such securities, whether any such transaction
described in clause (i) or (ii) above is to be settled by delivery of Common
Stock or other securities, in cash, or otherwise. The foregoing provisions of
this Section 7 shall not apply to the sale of any shares to an underwriter
pursuant to an underwriting agreement, and shall be applicable to the Holders
only if all officers, directors, and stockholders individually owning more than
five percent (5%) of the Parent’s outstanding Common Stock (after giving effect
to conversion into Common Stock of all outstanding Preferred Stock) are subject
to the same restrictions. Each Holder further agrees to execute such agreements
as may be reasonably requested by the underwriters in connection with such
registration that are consistent with this Section 7 or that are necessary to
give further effect thereto.
 
8. Miscellaneous

(a) Remedies. In the event of a breach by the Parent or by a Holder, of any of
their obligations under this Agreement, each Holder or the Parent, as the case
may be, in addition to being entitled to exercise all rights granted by law and
under this Agreement, including recovery of damages, will be entitled to
specific performance of its rights under this Agreement. The Parent and each
Holder agree that monetary damages would not provide adequate compensation for
any losses incurred by reason of a breach by it of any of the provisions of this
Agreement and hereby further agrees that, in the event of any action for
specific performance in respect of such breach, it shall waive the defense that
a remedy at law would be adequate.
 
(b) Compliance. Each Holder covenants and agrees that it will comply with the
prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act as applicable to it in
connection with sales of Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration
Statement.
 
(c) Discontinued Disposition. Each Holder agrees by its acquisition of such
Registrable Securities that, upon receipt of a notice from the Parent of the
occurrence of any event of the kind described in Section 4(d), such Holder shall
forthwith discontinue disposition of such Registrable Securities under the
Registration Statement until such Holder’s receipt of the copies of the
supplemented Prospectus and/or amended Registration Statement or until it is
advised in writing by the Parent that the use of the applicable Prospectus may
be resumed, and, in either case, has received copies of any additional or
supplemental filings that are incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by
reference in such Prospectus or Registration Statement. The Parent may provide
appropriate stop orders to enforce the provisions of this paragraph.

amended except in a written instrument signed by the Parent and the Electing
Holders. The Parent shall provide prior notice to all Holders of any proposed
waiver or amendment. No waiver of any default with respect to any provision,
condition or requirement of this Agreement shall be deemed to be a continuing
waiver in the future or a waiver of any subsequent default or a waiver of any
other provision, condition or requirement hereof, nor shall any delay or
omission of either party to exercise any right hereunder in any manner impair
the exercise of any such right.

Parent.

or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Electing
Holders.

counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original
and, all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same Agreement. In
the event that any signature is delivered by facsimile or electronic mail
transmission, such signature shall create a valid binding obligation of the
party executing (or on whose behalf such signature is executed) the same with

Schedule 1.01(b)
EBITDA

The adjustment to EBITDA for the "pro forma effect for (X) the assumed ownership
of the Purchased Assets, (Y) the elimination of certain intercompany and related
party transactions" is represented by the elimination of cost of sales incurred
with the previous owners of the Purchased Assets for cost sharing purposes.
Because these cost sharing amounts will not be incurred in the future, they are
removed from the EBITDA calculation.

EBITDA was calculated as follows:
