        NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the covenants and promises set forth herein, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereby agree as follows:


 


 


AGREEMENT


 


 


               1.    Purchase and Sale of the Shares; the Closing.    


 


 


1.1    Purchase and Sale of Common Stock.    Subject to the consummation of the sale of the Underwritten Shares to the Underwriter pursuant to and in accordance with the Underwriting Agreement, and the other terms and conditions of this Agreement, and on the basis of the representations, warranties and covenants set forth herein, the Selling Stockholders agree to sell to the Company, and the Company agrees to purchase from the Selling Stockholders $35.0 million worth of shares of Common Stock (the “Shares”) at the Closing. The allocation of the Shares to be sold by each Selling Stockholder at the Closing shall be pro rata based on the number of shares of Common Stock held of record by each as of the date hereof, and,


 






  





  











  








 


accordingly, the Company shall purchase the following value of shares from each Selling Stockholder:


 



	
Selling Stockholder

	
Pro Rata Percentage of Shares Owned

	
Value of Shares to be Purchased from such Selling Stockholder


	
Stonington

	
75.59%

	
$26,456,500


	
Obagi Trust

	
24.41%

	
$8,543,500







 


The obligations of the Selling Stockholders to sell the Shares to the Company pursuant to the terms of this Agreement shall be several and not joint.


 


 


1.2    Purchase Price.     The “Per Share Purchase Price” for the Shares shall be equal to the price per share at which the Underwriter purchases the Underwritten Shares from the Selling Stockholders pursuant to the terms of the Underwriting Agreement; provided, however, that should the Per Share Purchase Price be greater than $13.00, then the Company shall not purchase the Shares hereunder.


 


 


1.3    The Closing.    Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the purchase and sale of the Shares contemplated by this Agreement (the “Closing”) will take place at the offices of the Company, 3760 Kilroy Airport Way, Suite 500, Long Beach, CA 90806, on the third business day following the expiration of any prohibitions or restrictions on the Company's ability to purchase shares of its Common Stock pursuant to Regulation M, as promulgated by the SEC, 17 CFR § 242.100, et. seq., as may be amended from time to time, or such other day or location as the parties may mutually agree. It is anticipated that the Closing will take place on the third business day following the closing of the Underwriter’s purchase of the Underwritten Shares.  At the Closing, (a) the Selling Stockholders will deliver to the Company certificates representing the Shares to be purchased by the Company duly endorsed or accompanied by stock powers duly executed in blank and, if required, signature guarantees, and otherwise in form acceptable for transfer on the books of the Company (or shall deliver the Shares in such other manner as is reasonably agreed), and any such other documents as may be reasonably required to effect the transfer of the Shares to the Company and (b) the Company shall deliver the applicable pro rata portion of the purchase price to each of the Selling Stockholders by wire transfer of immediately available funds to one or more accounts specified by the Selling Stockholders. Each of the Selling Stockholders acknowledges that, unless there shall have been a default in payment by the Company of the Per Share Purchase Price for each Share being sold, such Selling Stockholder shall have no further rights whatsoever with respect to the Shares and the Selling Stockholder shall cease to be a stockholder of the Company with respect to such Shares.


 


 


2. Representations and Warranties of the Selling Stockholders.


 


 


In order to induce the Company to enter into this Agreement, each of the Selling Stockholders hereby represents and warrants to the Company, severally and not jointly, as follows:


 


 


2.1    Ownership of Shares.    Such Selling Stockholder is the beneficial owner of the number of issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock set forth in the recitals to this Agreement. The Shares to be sold to the Company by such Selling Stockholder when delivered to the Company shall be free and clear of any liens, encumbrances, equities or adverse claims, except for restrictions imposed by applicable securities laws and regulations or created by the


 






  





  











  








 


Company or this Agreement (collectively, “Liens”).  There are no restrictions on the transfer of such Shares imposed by any stockholder or similar agreement or any law, regulation or order, other than applicable state and federal securities laws. The delivery to the Company of the Shares pursuant to the provisions hereof will transfer to the Company valid title thereto, free and clear of any Liens whatsoever.


 


 


2.2    Authorization.    Such Selling Stockholder has full right, power and authority to execute, deliver and perform this Agreement and to sell, assign and deliver the Shares to be sold by it to the Company. This Agreement is the legal, valid and, assuming due execution and delivery by the other parties hereto, binding obligation of such Selling Stockholder, enforceable against such Selling Stockholder in accordance with its terms, except to the extent that the enforceability thereof may be limited by: (a) principles of public policy, (b) applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other laws of general application relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors' rights generally (including, without limitation, fraudulent conveyance laws), and (c) by general principles of equity, including, without limitation, concepts of materiality, reasonableness, good faith and fair dealing and the possible unavailability of specific performance or injunctive relief, regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or law.


 


 


2.3    No Violation; No Consent.    The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby by such Selling Stockholder: (a) will not constitute a violation of any provision of any applicable statute, law, rule or regulation by which such Selling Stockholder or its properties are bound; (b) will not result in a material breach of or default under any material agreement or instrument to which such Selling Stockholder is a party or by which the Selling Stockholder or the Shares may be bound; (c) will not constitute a breach or violation of or default under any judgment, decree or order to which such Selling Stockholder is subject; (d) will not result in the creation or imposition of any Lien upon the Shares to be sold by such Selling Stockholder; and (e) will not require the consent of or notice to or filing with any governmental entity or any party to any contract, agreement or arrangement with such Selling Stockholder, other than any filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission required under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.


 


 


2.4    Brokerage.    There are no claims for brokerage commissions or finder's fees or similar compensation in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement based on any arrangement or agreement made by or on behalf of such Selling Stockholder.


 


 


2.5   Acknowledgment.    Except as expressly set forth herein, such Selling Stockholder acknowledges that the Company has not made, and is not making, any representation or warranty as to the business, assets, properties, condition (financial or otherwise), risks, results of operations, prospects or any other aspect of the operations of the Company. The Selling Stockholder has such knowledge and experience in business and financial matters as to be capable of evaluating the risks and merits of the transactions contemplated hereunder. Such Selling Stockholder has adequate information and has made its own independent investigation concerning the business, assets, properties, condition (financial or otherwise), risks, results of operations, prospects of the Company to make an informed decision regarding sale of the Shares. In entering into this Agreement, such Selling Stockholder has relied solely upon its own investigation and analysis, without reliance upon any information from the Company or its affiliates, other than what is, and what the Company has made, publicly available.


 


2.6   Tax Matters.    Such Selling Stockholder has had the opportunity to review with its own tax advisors the federal, state and local tax consequences of the sale of the Shares by said






  





  











  








 


Selling Stockholder to the Company. The Selling Stockholder is relying solely upon itself and its advisors and not on any statements or representations of the Company, other than those explicitly contained herein. The Selling Stockholder understands that it (and not the Company) shall be responsible for its own tax liability, if any, that may arise as a result of the transactions contemplated in this Agreement.
