the Subsidiaries is duly qualified to conduct business and is in
good standing as a foreign corporation or other entity in each
jurisdiction in which the nature of the business conducted or
property owned by it makes such qualification necessary, except

effect on the results of operations, assets, business or condition
(financial or otherwise) of the Company and the Subsidiaries, taken
as a whole, or (iii) a material adverse effect on the
Company’s ability to perform in any material respect on a
timely basis its obligations under any Transaction Document (any of
(i), (ii) or (iii), a “Material Adverse Effect”)
and no Proceeding has been instituted in any such jurisdiction
revoking, limiting or curtailing or seeking to revoke, limit or
curtail such power and authority or qualification.

any law, rule, regulation, order, judgment, injunction, decree or
other restriction of any court or governmental authority to which
the Company or a Subsidiary is subject (including federal and state
securities laws and regulations), or by which any property or asset
of the Company or a Subsidiary is bound or affected; except in the

administrative agency or regulatory authority (federal, state,
county, local or foreign) (collectively, an “Action”) that would, if
there were an unfavorable decision, have or reasonably be expected
to result in a Material Adverse Effect, nor to the knowledge of the
Company is there any reasonable basis for any such Action that
would, if there were an unfavorable decision, have or reasonably be
expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. Neither the
Company nor any Subsidiary, to the Company’s knowledge, nor
any director or officer thereof, is or has been the subject of any

confidentiality, disclosure or proprietary information agreement or
non-competition agreement, or any other contract or agreement or
any restrictive covenant in favor of any third party which could
reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, and
the continued employment of each such executive officer does not
subject the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to any liability
with respect to any of the foregoing matters. The Company and its
Subsidiaries are in compliance with all applicable U.S. federal,
state, local and foreign laws and regulations relating to
employment and employment practices, terms and conditions of
employment and wages and hours, except where the failure to be in
compliance would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably
be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

 

(l)           Compliance.

credit agreement or any other agreement or instrument to which it

(whether or not such default or violation has been waived), (ii) is
in violation of any judgment, decree or order of any court,
arbitrator or other governmental authority or (iii) is or has been
in violation of any statute, rule, ordinance or regulation of any
governmental authority, including without limitation all foreign,

protection, occupational health and safety, product quality and
safety and employment and labor matters, except in each case as
would not have or reasonably be expected to result in a Material
Adverse Effect.

 

(m)           Regulatory
Permits. The Company and the Subsidiaries possess all
certificates, authorizations and permits issued by the appropriate
federal, state, local or foreign regulatory authorities necessary
to conduct their respective businesses as actually conducted and as
described in the SEC Reports, except where the failure to possess
such permits would not reasonably be expected to result in a
Material Adverse Effect (“Material Permits”), and
neither the Company nor any Subsidiary has received any notice of
proceedings relating to the revocation or modification of any
Material Permit.

marketable title in fee simple to all real property owned by them
and good and marketable title in all tangible personal property
owned by them that is material to the business of the Company and

for Permitted Liens. Any real property and facilities held under
lease by the Company and the Subsidiaries are held by them under
valid, subsisting and enforceable leases with which the Company and

Internal Accounting Controls. The Company and the
Subsidiaries are in material compliance with any and all applicable
requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 that are effective
as of the date hereof, and any and all applicable rules and
regulations promulgated by the Commission thereunder that are
effective as of the date hereof and as of the Closing Date. The
Company and the Subsidiaries maintain a system of internal
accounting controls sufficient to provide reasonable assurance

accountability, (iii) access to assets is permitted only in

Company and the Subsidiaries have established disclosure controls
and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and
15d-15(e)) for the Company and the Subsidiaries and designed such
disclosure controls and procedures to ensure that information
required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports it files or
submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized
and reported, within the time periods specified in the
Commission’s rules and forms. The Company’s certifying
officers have evaluated the effectiveness of the disclosure
controls and procedures of the Company and the Subsidiaries as of

report under the Exchange Act (such date, the “Evaluation
Date”). The Company presented in its most recently filed

quoted to the effect that the Company is not in compliance with the
listing or maintenance requirements of such Trading
Market.

 

(w)           Application
of Takeover Protections. The Company’s Board of
Directors has approved the Transaction Documents under Section

(the “DGCL”) in order to render
the restrictions on “business combinations” (as defined

Shares and each Purchaser’s ownership of the
Shares.

Except with respect to the material terms and conditions of the
transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents, the Company
confirms that neither it nor any other Person acting on its behalf
has provided each Purchaser or its agents or counsel with any
information that it believes constitutes or might constitute
material, non-public information which is not otherwise disclosed
in the Prospectus Supplement. The Company understands and confirms
that the Purchasers will rely on the foregoing representation in
effecting transactions in securities of the Company. All of the
disclosure furnished by or on behalf of the Company to the
Purchasers regarding the Company and its Subsidiaries, their
respective businesses and the transactions contemplated hereby, is
true and correct in all material respects as of the date made and
does not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to
state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements
made therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were
made, not misleading. The Company acknowledges and agrees that no
Purchaser makes or has made any representations or warranties with
respect to the transactions contemplated hereby other than those

Company, any of its Affiliates, nor any Person acting on its or, to
the knowledge of the Company, their behalf has, directly or
indirectly, made any offers or sales of any security or solicited
any offers to buy any security, under circumstances that would
cause this offering of the Shares by the Company to be integrated
with prior offerings by the Company for purposes of (i) the
Securities Act which would require the registration of any such
securities under the Securities Act, or (ii) any applicable
shareholder approval provisions of any Trading Market on which any

(z)           Solvency.
Based on the consolidated financial condition of the Company as of
the Closing Date, after giving effect to the receipt by the Company
of the proceeds from the sale of the Shares hereunder, (i) the fair
saleable value of the assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries
taken as a whole exceeds the amount that will be required to be
paid on or in respect of the Company’s existing debts and
other liabilities (including known contingent liabilities) of the
Company and its Subsidiaries as they mature, (ii) the assets of the
Company and its Subsidiaries do not constitute unreasonably small
capital to carry on its business as now conducted and as proposed
to be conducted including its capital needs taking into account the
particular capital requirements of the business conducted by the
Company and its Subsidiaries, consolidated and projected capital
requirements and capital availability thereof, and (iii) the
current cash flow of the Company and its Subsidiaries, together
with the proceeds the Company would receive, were they to liquidate
all of their assets, after taking into account all anticipated uses
of the cash, would be sufficient to pay all amounts on or in
respect of their liabilities when such amounts are required to be
paid. The Company does not intend to incur debts beyond its ability
to pay such debts as they mature (taking into account the timing
and amounts of cash to be payable on or in respect of its debt).
The SEC Reports set forth as of the date hereof all outstanding
secured and unsecured Indebtedness of the Company or any
Subsidiary, or for which the Company or any Subsidiary has
commitments. For the purposes of this Agreement,
“Indebtedness” means (x) any liabilities for borrowed
money or amounts owed in excess of $400,000 (other than trade
accounts payable incurred in the ordinary course of business), (y)
all guaranties, endorsements and other contingent obligations in
respect of indebtedness of others, whether or not the same are or
should be reflected in the Company’s consolidated balance
sheet (or the notes thereto), except guaranties by endorsement of
negotiable instruments for deposit or collection or similar
transactions in the ordinary course of business; and (z) the
present value of any lease payments in excess of $400,000 due under
leases required to be capitalized in accordance with GAAP. The
Company is not in default with respect to any
Indebtedness.

 

(aa)           Tax
Status. Except as disclosed in the SEC Reports and except
for matters that would not, individually or in the aggregate, have
or reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect,

required United States federal, state and local income and all
foreign income and franchise tax returns, reports and declarations
required by any jurisdiction to which it is subject, (ii) has paid
all taxes and other governmental assessments and charges that are
material in amount, shown or determined to be due on such returns,
reports and declarations and (iii) has set aside on its books
provision reasonably adequate for the payment of all material taxes
for periods subsequent to the periods to which such returns,
reports or declarations apply. Except as disclosed in the SEC
Reports, there are no unpaid taxes in any material amount claimed
to be due by the taxing authority of any jurisdiction, and the
officers of the Company or of any Subsidiary know of no reasonable
basis for any such claim.

 

(bb)           Foreign
Corrupt Practices. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary,
nor to the knowledge of the Company or any Subsidiary, any agent or
other person acting on behalf of the Company or any Subsidiary, has

contributions, gifts, entertainment or other unlawful expenses
related to foreign or domestic political activity, (ii) made any
unlawful payment to foreign or domestic government officials or
employees or to any foreign or domestic political parties or
campaigns from corporate funds, (iii) failed to disclose fully any

provision of FCPA.

“derivative” transaction. The Company further
understands and acknowledges that (y) the Purchasers may engage in
hedging activities in accordance with all applicable laws at
various times during the period that the Shares are outstanding,
including, without limitation, during the periods that the value of
the Shares are being determined, and (z) such hedging activities
(if any) could reduce the value of the existing stockholders'
equity interests in the Company at and after the time that the
hedging activities are being conducted. The Company acknowledges
that such aforementioned hedging activities do not constitute a
breach of any of the Transaction Documents.

 

(ff)           Regulation
M Compliance. The Company has not, and to its knowledge no
one acting on its behalf has, (i) taken, directly or indirectly,
any action designed to cause or to result in the stabilization or

and (iii), as set forth in the Prospectus Supplement.

3.2           Representations
and Warranties of the Purchasers. Each Purchaser, for itself and for no other
Purchaser, hereby represents and warrants as of the date hereof and

such date):

 

(a)           Organization;
Authority. Such Purchaser is
either an individual or an entity duly incorporated or formed,
validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the
jurisdiction of its incorporation or formation with full right,
corporate, partnership limited liability company or similar power
and authority to enter into and to consummate the transactions

Purchaser, and when delivered by such Purchaser in accordance with
the terms hereof, will constitute the valid and legally binding
obligation of such Purchaser, enforceable against it in accordance
with its terms, except: (i) as limited by general equitable
principles and applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization,
moratorium and other laws of general application affecting
enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, (ii) as limited
by laws relating to the availability of specific performance,
injunctive relief or other equitable remedies and (iii) insofar as
indemnification and contribution provisions may be limited by
applicable law.

 

(b)           Understandings
or Arrangements. Such Purchaser
is acquiring the Shares as principal for its own account and has no
direct or indirect arrangement or understandings with any other
persons to distribute or regarding the distribution of such Shares
(this representation and warranty not limiting such
Purchaser’s right to sell the Shares pursuant to the
Registration Statement or otherwise in compliance with applicable
federal and state securities laws). Such Purchaser is acquiring the
Shares hereunder in the ordinary course of its
business.

 

 

 

18

 

 

(c)           Purchaser
Status. At the time such
Purchaser was offered the Shares, it was, and as of the date hereof
it is either: (i) an “accredited investor” as defined
in Rule 501(a)(1), (a)(2), (a)(3), (a)(7) or (a)(8) under the
Securities Act or (ii) a “qualified institutional
buyer” as defined in Rule 144A(a) under the Securities
Act.

 

(d)           Experience
of Such Purchaser. Such
Purchaser, either alone or together with its representatives, has
such knowledge, sophistication and experience in business and
financial matters so as to be capable of evaluating the merits and
risks of the prospective investment in the Shares, and has so
evaluated the merits and risks of such investment. Such Purchaser
is able to bear the economic risk of an investment in the Shares
and, at the present time, is able to afford a complete loss of such
investment.

 

(e)           Certain
Transactions and Confidentiality. Other than consummating the transactions
contemplated hereunder, such Purchaser has not, nor has any Person
acting on behalf of or pursuant to any understanding with such
Purchaser, directly or indirectly executed any purchases or sales,
including Short Sales, of the securities of the Company during
the period commencing as of the time that such Purchaser first
received a term sheet (written or oral) from the Company or any
other Person representing the Company setting forth the material
pricing terms of the transactions contemplated hereunder and ending
immediately prior to the execution hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of a
Purchaser that is a multi-managed investment vehicle whereby
separate portfolio managers manage separate portions of such
Purchaser’s assets and the portfolio managers have no direct
knowledge of the investment decisions made by the portfolio
managers managing other portions of such Purchaser’s assets,
the representation set forth above shall only apply with respect to
the portion of assets managed by the portfolio manager that made
the investment decision to purchase the Shares covered by this
Agreement. Other than to other Persons party to this Agreement or
to such Purchaser’s representatives, including, without
limitation, its officers, directors, partners, legal and other
advisors, employees, agents and Affiliates, such Purchaser has
maintained the confidentiality of all disclosures made to it in
connection with this transaction (including the existence and terms
of this transaction). Notwithstanding the foregoing, for the
avoidance of doubt, nothing contained herein shall constitute a
representation or warranty, or preclude any actions, with respect
to locating or borrowing shares in order to effect Short Sales or
similar transactions in the future.

 

The
Company acknowledges and agrees that the representations contained
in this Section 3.2 shall not modify, amend or affect such
Purchaser’s right to rely on the Company’s
representations and warranties contained in this Agreement or any
representations and warranties contained in any other Transaction
Document or any other document or instrument executed and/or
delivered in connection with this Agreement or the consummation of
the transactions contemplated hereby. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, for the avoidance of doubt, nothing contained herein
shall constitute a representation or warranty, or preclude any
actions, with respect to locating or borrowing shares in order to
effect Short Sales or similar transactions in the
future.

 

ARTICLE IV.

 OTHER
AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES

 

4.1           Furnishing
of Information. Until the time
that no Purchaser owns Shares, the Company covenants to timely file

Company after the date hereof pursuant to the Exchange Act even if
the Company is not then subject to the reporting requirements of
the Exchange Act.

 

4.2           Integration.
The Company shall not sell, offer for sale or solicit offers to buy
or otherwise negotiate in respect of any security (as defined in
Section 2 of the Securities Act) that would be integrated with the

unless shareholder approval is obtained before the closing of such
subsequent transaction.

4.3           Securities
Laws Disclosure; Publicity. The
Company shall (a) by the Disclosure Time, issue a press release
disclosing the material terms of the transactions contemplated
hereby, and (b) file a Current Report on Form 8-K, including the
Transaction Documents as exhibits thereto, with the Commission
within the time required by the Exchange Act. From and after the
issuance of such press release, the Company represents to the
Purchasers that it shall have publicly disclosed all material,
non-public information delivered to any of the Purchasers by the
Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or any of their respective
officers, directors, employees or agents in connection with the
transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents. In
addition, effective upon the issuance of such press release, the
Company acknowledges and agrees that any and all confidentiality or
similar obligations under any agreement, whether written or oral,
between the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any of their
respective officers, directors, agents, employees or Affiliates on
the one hand, and any of the Purchasers or any of their Affiliates
on the other hand, shall terminate. The Company and each Purchaser
shall consult with each other in issuing any other press releases
with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby, and neither
the Company nor any Purchaser shall issue any such press release
nor otherwise make any such public statement without the prior
consent of the Company, with respect to any press release of any
Purchaser, or without the prior consent of each Purchaser, with
respect to any press release of the Company, which consent shall
not unreasonably be withheld or delayed, except if such disclosure
is required by law, in which case the disclosing party shall
promptly provide the other party with prior notice of such public
statement or communication. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
Company shall not publicly disclose the name of any Purchaser, or
include the name of any Purchaser in any filing with the Commission
or any regulatory agency or Trading Market, without the prior
written consent of such Purchaser, except (a) as required by
federal securities law in connection with the filing of final
Transaction Documents with the Commission and (b) to the extent
such disclosure is required by law or Trading Market regulations,
in which case the Company shall provide the Purchasers with prior
notice of such disclosure permitted under this clause
(b).

 

4.4           Shareholder
Rights Plan. No claim will be
made or enforced by the Company or, with the consent of the
Company, any other Person, that any Purchaser is an
“Acquiring
Person” under any control
share acquisition, business combination, poison pill (including any
distribution under a rights agreement) or similar anti-takeover
plan or arrangement in effect or hereafter adopted by the Company,
or that any Purchaser could be deemed to trigger the provisions of
any such plan or arrangement, by virtue of receiving Shares under
the Transaction Documents or under any other agreement between the
Company and the Purchasers.

 

4.5           Non-Public
Information. Except with
respect to the material terms and conditions of the transactions
contemplated by the Transaction Documents, which shall be disclosed
pursuant to Section 4.3, the Company covenants and agrees that
neither it, nor any other Person acting on its behalf will provide
any Purchaser or its agents or counsel with any information that
constitutes, or the Company reasonably believes constitutes,
material non-public information, unless prior thereto such
Purchaser shall have consented to the receipt of such information
and agreed with the Company to keep such information confidential.
The Company understands and confirms that each Purchaser shall be
relying on the foregoing covenant in effecting transactions in
securities of the Company. To the extent that the Company delivers
any material, non-public information to a Purchaser without such
Purchaser’s consent, the Company hereby covenants and agrees
that such Purchaser shall not have any duty of confidentiality to
the Company, any of its Subsidiaries, or any of their respective
officers, directors, agents, employees or Affiliates, or a duty to
the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective
officers, directors, agents, employees or Affiliates not to trade
on the basis of, such material, non-public information, provided
that the Purchaser shall remain subject to applicable law. To the
extent that any notice provided pursuant to any Transaction
Document constitutes, or contains, material, non-public information
regarding the Company or any Subsidiaries, the Company shall
simultaneously file such notice with the Commission pursuant to a
Current Report on Form 8-K. The Company understands and confirms
that each Purchaser shall be relying on the foregoing covenant in
effecting transactions in securities of the
Company.

 

4.6           Use
of Proceeds. The Company shall
use the net proceeds from the sale of the Shares hereunder for
working capital purposes and shall not use such proceeds: (a) for
the satisfaction of any portion of the Company’s debt (other
than payment of trade payables in the ordinary course of the
Company’s business and prior practices), (b) for the
redemption of any Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents, (c) for
the settlement of any outstanding litigation or (d) in violation of
FCPA or OFAC regulations.

 

 

 

20

 

 

4.7           Indemnification
of Purchasers. Subject to the
provisions of this Section 4.7, the Company will indemnify and hold
each Purchaser and its directors, officers, shareholders, members,
partners, employees and agents (and any other Persons with a
functionally equivalent role of a Person holding such titles
notwithstanding a lack of such title or any other title), each
Person who controls such Purchaser (within the meaning of Section
15 of the Securities Act and Section 20 of the Exchange Act), and
the directors, officers, shareholders, agents, members, partners or
employees (and any other Persons with a functionally equivalent
role of a Person holding such titles notwithstanding a lack of such
title or any other title) of such controlling persons (each, a
“Purchaser
Party”) harmless from any
and all losses, liabilities, obligations, claims, contingencies,
damages, costs and expenses, including all judgments, amounts paid
in settlements, court costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees
and costs of investigation that any such Purchaser Party may suffer
or incur as a result of or relating to (a) any breach of any of the
representations, warranties, covenants or agreements made by the
Company in this Agreement or in the other Transaction Documents or
(b) any action instituted against the Purchaser Parties in any
capacity, or any of them or their respective Affiliates, by any
stockholder of the Company who is not an Affiliate of such
Purchaser Party, with respect to any of the transactions
contemplated by the Transaction Documents (unless such action is
solely based upon a material breach of such Purchaser Party’s
representations, warranties or covenants under the Transaction
Documents or any agreements or understandings such Purchaser Party
may have with any such stockholder or any violations by such
Purchaser Party of state or federal securities laws or any conduct
by such Purchaser Party which is finally judicially determined to
constitute fraud, gross negligence or willful misconduct). If any
action shall be brought against any Purchaser Party in respect of
which indemnity may be sought pursuant to this Agreement, such
Purchaser Party shall promptly notify the Company in writing, and
the Company shall have the right to assume the defense thereof with
counsel of its own choosing reasonably acceptable to the Purchaser
Party. Any Purchaser Party shall have the right to employ separate
counsel in any such action and participate in the defense thereof,
but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense
of such Purchaser Party except to the extent that (i) the
employment thereof has been specifically authorized by the Company
in writing, (ii) the Company has failed after a reasonable period
of time to assume such defense and to employ counsel or (iii) in
such action there is, in the reasonable opinion of counsel, a
material conflict on any material issue between the position of the
Company and the position of such Purchaser Party, in which case the
Company shall be responsible for the reasonable fees and expenses
of no more than one such separate counsel. The Company will not be
liable to any Purchaser Party under this Agreement (y) for any
settlement by a Purchaser Party effected without the
Company’s prior written consent, which shall not be
unreasonably withheld or delayed; or (z) to the extent, but only to
the extent that a loss, claim, damage or liability is attributable
to any Purchaser Party’s breach of any of the
representations, warranties, covenants or agreements made by such
Purchaser Party in this Agreement or in the other Transaction
Documents. The indemnification
required by this Section 4.7 shall be made by periodic payments of
the amount thereof during the course of the investigation or
defense, as and when bills are received or are incurred. The
indemnity agreements contained herein shall be in addition to any
cause of action or similar right of any Purchaser Party against the
Company or others and any liabilities the Company may be subject to
pursuant to law.

 

4.8           Listing
of Common Stock. The Company
hereby agrees to use best efforts to maintain the listing or
quotation of the Common Stock on the Trading Market on which it is
currently listed, and concurrently with the Closing, the Company
shall apply to list or quote all of the Shares on such Trading
Market and promptly secure the listing of all of the Shares on such
Trading Market. The Company further agrees, if the Company applies
to have the Common Stock traded on any other Trading Market, it
will then include in such application all of the Shares, and will
take such other action as is necessary to cause all of the Shares
to be listed or quoted on such other Trading Market as promptly as
possible. The Company will then take all action reasonably
necessary to continue the listing and trading of its Common Stock
on a Trading Market and will comply in all respects with the
Company’s reporting, filing and other obligations under the
bylaws or rules of the Trading Market. The Company agrees to
maintain the eligibility of the Common Stock for electronic
transfer through the Depository Trust Company or another
established clearing corporation, including, without limitation, by
timely payment of fees to the Depository Trust Company or such
other established clearing corporation in connection with such
electronic transfer.

 

 

 

21

 

 

4.9           RESERVED.

 

4.10           Subsequent
Equity Sales.

 

(a)           From
the date hereof until 30 days after the Closing Date, neither the
Company nor any Subsidiary shall issue, enter into any agreement to
issue or announce the issuance or proposed issuance of any shares
of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents.

 

(b)           Notwithstanding
the foregoing, this Section 4.10 shall not apply in respect of an
Exempt Issuance, except that no Variable Rate Transaction shall be
an Exempt Issuance.

 

4.11           Equal
Treatment of Purchasers. No
consideration (including any modification of any Transaction
Document) shall be offered or paid to any Person to amend or
consent to a waiver or modification of any provision of the
Transaction Documents unless the same consideration is also offered
to all of the parties to such Transaction Document. For
clarification purposes, this provision constitutes a separate right
granted to each Purchaser by the Company and negotiated separately
by each Purchaser, and is intended for the Company to treat the
Purchasers as a class and shall not in any way be construed as the
Purchasers acting in concert or as a group with respect to the
purchase, disposition or voting of Shares or
otherwise.

 

4.12           Certain
Transactions and Confidentiality. Each Purchaser, severally and not jointly with
the other Purchasers, covenants that neither it nor any Affiliate
acting on its behalf or pursuant to any understanding with it will
execute any purchases or sales, including Short Sales of any of the
Company’s securities during the period commencing with the
execution of this Agreement and ending at such time that the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement are first publicly
announced pursuant to the initial press release as described in
Section 4.3.  Each Purchaser, severally and not jointly with
the other Purchasers, covenants that until such time as the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement are publicly disclosed
by the Company pursuant to the initial press release as described
in Section 4.3, such Purchaser will maintain the confidentiality of
the existence and terms of this transaction and the information
included in the Disclosure Schedules.  Notwithstanding the
foregoing, and notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement
to the contrary, the Company expressly acknowledges and agrees that
(i) no Purchaser makes any representation, warranty or covenant
hereby that it will not engage in effecting transactions in any
securities of the Company after the time that the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement are first publicly announced
pursuant to the initial press release as described in Section 4.3,
(ii) no Purchaser shall be restricted or prohibited from effecting
any transactions in any securities of the Company in accordance
with applicable securities laws from and after the time that the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement are first publicly
announced pursuant to the initial press release as described in
Section 4.3 and (iii) no Purchaser shall have any duty of
confidentiality or duty not to trade in the securities of the
Company to the Company or its Subsidiaries after the issuance of
the initial press release as described in Section 4.3. 
Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of a Purchaser that is a
multi-managed investment vehicle whereby separate portfolio
managers manage separate portions of such Purchaser’s assets
and the portfolio managers have no direct knowledge of the
investment decisions made by the portfolio managers managing other
portions of such Purchaser’s assets, the covenant set forth
above shall only apply with respect to the portion of assets
managed by the portfolio manager that made the investment decision
to purchase the Shares covered by this
Agreement.

ARTICLE V.

 MISCELLANEOUS

 

5.1           Termination. 
This Agreement may be terminated by any Purchaser, as to such
Purchaser’s obligations hereunder only and without any effect
whatsoever on the obligations between the Company and the other
Purchasers, by written notice to the other parties, if the Closing
has not been consummated on or before the fifth
(5th)
Trading Day following the date hereof; provided,
however,
that no such termination will affect the right of any party to sue
for any breach by any other party (or parties).

 

5.2           Fees
and Expenses. At the Closing,
the Company has agreed to reimburse Alpha Capital Anstalt the
non-accountable sum of $15,000 for its legal fees. Accordingly, in
lieu of the foregoing payments, the aggregate amount that Alpha is
to pay for the Shares at the Closing shall be reduced by $15,000 in
lieu thereof. Except as expressly set forth in the Transaction
Documents to the contrary, each party shall pay the fees and
expenses of its advisers, counsel, accountants and other experts,
if any, and all other expenses incurred by such party incident to
the negotiation, preparation, execution, delivery and performance
of this Agreement. The Company shall pay all Transfer Agent fees
(including, without limitation, any fees required for same-day
processing of any instruction letter delivered by the Company),
stamp taxes and other taxes and duties levied in connection with
the delivery of any Shares to the Purchasers.

 

5.3           Entire
Agreement. The Transaction
Documents, together with the exhibits and schedules thereto, the
Prospectus and the Prospectus Supplement, contain the entire
understanding of the parties with respect to the subject matter
hereof and thereof and supersede all prior agreements and
understandings, oral or written, with respect to such matters,
which the parties acknowledge have been merged into such documents,
exhibits and schedules.

 

5.4           Notices.
Any and all notices or other communications or deliveries required
or permitted to be provided hereunder shall be in writing and shall
be deemed given and effective on the earliest of: (a) the time of
transmission, if such notice or communication is delivered via
facsimile at the facsimile number or email attachment at the email
address as set forth on the signature pages attached hereto at or
prior to 5:30 p.m. (New York City time) on a Trading Day, (b) the
next Trading Day after the date of transmission, if such notice or
communication is delivered via facsimile at the facsimile number or
email attachment at the email address as set forth on the signature
pages attached hereto on a day that is not a Trading Day or later
than 5:30 p.m. (New York City time) on any Trading Day, (c) the
second (2nd)Trading
Day following the date of mailing, if sent by U.S. nationally
recognized overnight courier service or (d) upon actual receipt by
the party to whom such notice is required to be given. The address
for such notices and communications shall be as set forth on the
signature pages attached hereto. To the extent that any notice
provided pursuant to any Transaction Document constitutes, or
contains, material, non-public information regarding the Company or
any Subsidiaries, the Company shall simultaneously file such notice
with the Commission pursuant to a Current Report on Form
8-K.

 

 

 

23

 

 

5.5           Amendments;
Waivers. No provision of this
Agreement may be waived, modified, supplemented or amended except
in a written instrument signed, in the case of an amendment, by the
Company and Purchasers which purchased at least 50.1% in interest
of the Shares based on the initial Subscription Amounts hereunder
or, in the case of a waiver, by the party against whom enforcement
of any such waived provision is sought, provided that if any
amendment, modification or waiver disproportionately and adversely
impacts a Purchaser (or group of Purchasers), the consent of such
disproportionately impacted Purchaser (or group of Purchasers)
shall also be required. 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 any party to
exercise any right hereunder in any manner impair the exercise of
any such right. Any proposed amendment or waiver that
disproportionately, materially and adversely affects the rights and
obligations of any Purchaser relative to the comparable rights and
obligations of the other Purchasers shall require the prior written
consent of such adversely affected Purchaser. Any amendment
effected in accordance with this Section 5.5 shall be binding upon
each Purchaser and holder of Shares and the
Company.

 

5.6           Headings.
The headings herein are for convenience only, do not constitute a
part of this Agreement and shall not be deemed to limit or affect
any of the provisions hereof.

 

5.7           Successors
and Assigns. This Agreement
shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties and
their successors and permitted assigns. The Company may not assign
this Agreement or any rights or obligations hereunder without the
prior written consent of each Purchaser (other than by merger). Any
Purchaser may assign any or all of its rights under this Agreement
to any Person to whom such Purchaser assigns or transfers any
Shares, provided that such transferee agrees in writing to be
bound, with respect to the transferred Shares, by the provisions of
the Transaction Documents that apply to the
“Purchasers.”

 

5.8           No
Third-Party Beneficiaries. This
Agreement is intended for the benefit of the parties hereto and
their respective successors and permitted assigns and is not for
the benefit of, nor may any provision hereof be enforced by, any
other Person, except as otherwise set forth in Section
4.7.

 

5.9           Governing
Law. All questions concerning
the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of the
Transaction Documents shall be governed by and construed and
enforced in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New
York, without regard to the principles of conflicts of law thereof.
Each party agrees that all legal Proceedings concerning the
interpretations, enforcement and defense of the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement and any other Transaction Documents
(whether brought against a party hereto or its respective
affiliates, directors, officers, shareholders, partners, members,
employees or agents) shall be commenced exclusively in the state
and federal courts sitting in the City of New York. Each party
hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the
state and federal courts sitting in the City of New York, Borough
of Manhattan for the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in
connection herewith or with any transaction contemplated hereby or
discussed herein (including with respect to the enforcement of any
of the Transaction Documents), and hereby irrevocably waives, and
agrees not to assert in any Action or Proceeding, any claim that it
is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of any such court,
that such Action or Proceeding is improper or is an inconvenient
venue for such Proceeding. Each party hereby irrevocably waives
personal service of process and consents to process being served in
any such Action or Proceeding by mailing a copy thereof via
registered or certified mail or overnight delivery (with evidence
of delivery) to such party at the address in effect for notices to
it under this Agreement and agrees that such service shall
constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice
thereof. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit in any
way any right to serve process in any other manner permitted by
law. If any party shall commence an Action or Proceeding to enforce
any provisions of the Transaction Documents, then, in addition to
the obligations of the Company under Section 4.7, the prevailing
party in such Action or Proceeding shall be reimbursed by the
non-prevailing party for its reasonable attorneys’ fees and
other costs and expenses incurred with the investigation,
preparation and prosecution of such Action or
Proceeding.

 

 

 

24

 

 

5.10           Survival.
The representations and warranties contained herein shall survive
the Closing and the delivery of the Shares.

 

5.11           Execution.
This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, all of
which when taken together shall be considered one and the same
agreement and shall become effective when counterparts have been
signed by each party and delivered to each other party, it being
understood that the parties need not sign the same counterpart. In
the event that any signature is delivered by facsimile transmission
or by e-mail delivery of a “.pdf” format data file,
such signature shall create a valid and binding obligation of the
party executing (or on whose behalf such signature is executed)
with the same force and effect as if such facsimile or
“.pdf” signature page were an original
thereof.

 

5.12           Severability.
If any term, provision, covenant or restriction of this Agreement
is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid,
illegal, void or unenforceable, the remainder of the terms,
provisions, covenants and restrictions set forth herein shall
remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected,
impaired or invalidated, and the parties hereto shall use their
commercially reasonable efforts to find and employ an alternative
means to achieve the same or substantially the same result as that
contemplated by such term, provision, covenant or restriction. It
is hereby stipulated and declared to be the intention of the
parties that they would have executed the remaining terms,
provisions, covenants and restrictions without including any of
such that may be hereafter declared invalid, illegal, void or
unenforceable.

 

5.13           Rescission
and Withdrawal Right.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in (and without
limiting any similar provisions of) any of the other Transaction
Documents, whenever any Purchaser exercises a right, election,
demand or option under a Transaction Document and the Company does
not timely perform its related obligations within the periods
therein provided, then such Purchaser may rescind or withdraw, in
its sole discretion from time to time upon written notice to the
Company, any relevant notice, demand or election in whole or in
part without prejudice to its future actions and
rights.

 

5.14           Replacement
of Shares. If any certificate
or instrument evidencing any Shares is mutilated, lost, stolen or
destroyed, the Company shall issue or cause to be issued in
exchange and substitution for and upon cancellation thereof (in the
case of mutilation), or in lieu of and substitution therefor, a new
certificate or instrument, but only upon receipt of evidence
reasonably satisfactory to the Company of such loss, theft or
destruction. The applicant for a new certificate or instrument
under such circumstances shall also pay any reasonable third-party
costs (including customary indemnity) associated with the issuance
of such replacement Shares.

 

 

 

25

 

 

5.15           Remedies.
In addition to being entitled to exercise all rights provided
herein or granted by law, including recovery of damages, each of
the Purchasers and the Company will be entitled to specific
performance under the Transaction Documents. The parties agree that
monetary damages may not be adequate compensation for any loss
incurred by reason of any breach of obligations contained in the
Transaction Documents and hereby agree to waive and not to assert
in any Action for specific performance of any such obligation the
defense that a remedy at law would be adequate.

 

5.16           Payment
Set Aside. To the extent that
the Company makes a payment or payments to any Purchaser pursuant
to any Transaction Document or a Purchaser enforces or exercises
its rights thereunder, and such payment or payments or the proceeds
of such enforcement or exercise or any part thereof are
subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or
preferential, set aside, recovered from, disgorged by or are
required to be refunded, repaid or otherwise restored to the
Company, a trustee, receiver or any other Person under any law
(including, without limitation, any bankruptcy law, state or
federal law, common law or equitable cause of action), then to the
extent of any such restoration the obligation or part thereof
originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued
in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or
such enforcement or setoff had not occurred.

 

5.17           Independent
Nature of Purchasers’ Obligations and
Rights. The obligations of each
Purchaser under any Transaction Document are several and not joint
with the obligations of any other Purchaser, and no Purchaser shall
be responsible in any way for the performance or non-performance of
the obligations of any other Purchaser under any Transaction
Document. Nothing contained herein or in any other Transaction
Document, and no action taken by any Purchaser pursuant hereto or
thereto, shall be deemed to constitute the Purchasers as a
partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of
entity, or create a presumption that the Purchasers are in any way
acting in concert or as a group with respect to such obligations or
the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents. Each
Purchaser shall be entitled to independently protect and enforce
its rights including, without limitation, the rights arising out of
this Agreement or out of the other Transaction Documents, and it
shall not be necessary for any other Purchaser to be joined as an
additional party in any Proceeding for such purpose. Each Purchaser

 ARTICLE I. 

4.125% MORTGAGE BONDS, SERIES 2019 DUE 2049 

SECTION 1.    (a) There is hereby created a twenty-first series of Mortgage Bonds to be issued under and secured by
the Indenture, to be designated as “4.125% Mortgage Bonds, Series 2019 due 2049” of the Company (the “Bonds of the Twenty-first Series”). 

(b)    The Bonds of the Twenty-first Series may be issued without limitation as to aggregate principal amount except as
provided in the Indenture and this Supplemental Indenture. The Bonds of the Twenty-first Series shall be initially issued in the aggregate principal amount of $400,000,000; provided that the Company may, at any time, without the

  
 5 

 
consent of the Bondholders of the Outstanding Bonds of the Twenty-first Series, issue additional Bonds of the Twenty-first Series ranking equally and ratably with, and having the same interest
rate, maturity and other terms (except for the price to the public, the issue date and the first interest payment date, as applicable) as, the Bonds of the Twenty-first Series. Any additional Bonds, together with the Bonds of the Twenty-first Series
initially issued, will constitute a single series of general mortgage bonds under the Indenture; provided that if any such additional Bonds are not fungible for U.S. federal income tax purposes with the Bonds of the Twenty-first Series, such
additional Bonds will be issued under a separate CUSIP number. 
 (c)    The Bonds of the Twenty-first Series shall be
registered Bonds without coupons and shall be dated as described in Section 2.03 of the Indenture except that the Bonds of the Twenty-first Series initially issued shall be dated March 27, 2019. All Bonds of the Twenty-first Series shall
mature on April 1, 2049 (the “Maturity Date”), subject to prior redemption pursuant to Section 2 of this Article I. 

(d)    All Bonds of the Twenty-first Series shall be issued initially in the form of one or more global bonds (each such
global bond, a “Global Bond”) to or on behalf of The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”), as depositary therefor (in such capacity, the “Depositary”), and registered in the name of the Depositary or its nominee. 

(e)    The principal and interest on the Bonds of the Twenty-first Series shall be payable in lawful money of the United
States of America. The place where such principal shall be payable shall be at the principal office of the Trustee in Kansas City, Missouri (or at the principal office of any successor in trust). The place where interest shall be payable shall be
the principal office of the Trustee in Kansas City, Missouri (or at the principal office of any successor in trust), or by check mailed to the Registered Holders of the Bonds of the Twenty-first Series. Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to
Bonds of the Twenty-first Series in the form of one or more Global Bonds registered in the name of DTC or its nominee, the Company may make payments of principal of, redemption price of, and interest on such Global Bond pursuant to and in accordance
with such arrangements as are agreed upon by the Company and the Depositary. 
 (f)    The Bonds of the Twenty-first
Series shall bear interest at the rate of 4.125% per annum from the date of issuance or from the most recent interest payment date to which interest has been paid or provided for, payable semi-annually in arrears on April 1 and October 1
of each year, beginning on October 1, 2019, to the persons in whose names the Bonds of the Twenty-first Series are registered at the close of business on the record date for such interest payment date, which will be (i) the close of
business on the Business Day immediately preceding such interest payment date so long as all of the Bonds of the Twenty-first Series remain in book-entry only form or (ii) the 15th calendar day immediately preceding each interest payment date
if any of the Bonds of the Twenty-first Series do not remain in book-entry only form, whether or not such day is a Business Day. The term “Business Day” means, with respect to the Bonds of the Twenty-first Series, any day other than a day
on which banking institutions in New York, New York are authorized or required by law to close. 
 (g)    The Company
shall have no obligation to redeem or purchase any Bonds of the Twenty-first Series pursuant to any sinking fund or analogous requirement or upon the happening of a specified event or at the option of a holder of any Bonds of the Twenty-first
Series. 

  
 6 

 (h)    The Bonds of the Twenty-first Series shall be subject to
redemption as set forth in Section 2 of this Article I. 
 (i)    So long as there is no existing default in
the payment on the Bonds of the Twenty-first Series, the person in whose name any Bond of the Twenty-first Series is registered at the close of business on any record date with respect to any interest payment date shall be entitled to receive the
interest payable on such interest payment date, notwithstanding any transfer or exchange of such Bond of the Twenty-first Series subsequent to the record date and on or prior to such interest payment date, except as and to the extent the Company
shall default in the payment of the interest due on such interest payment date, in which case defaulted interest shall be paid to the person in whose name such Bond of the Twenty-first Series is registered on the date of payment of such defaulted
interest. 
 As used in this Section 1, the term “default in the payment of interest” means failure to pay interest due on
the applicable interest payment date disregarding any period of grace permitted by Section 12.02 of the Original Indenture, and the term “record date” with respect to each interest payment date is defined in Section 1(f) above.

the Twenty-first Series may not be redeemed prior to the Maturity Date. Prior to the Par Call Date, the Company shall have the right to redeem the Bonds of the Twenty-first Series, at its option, in whole or from time to time in part, at a
redemption price equal to the greater of: 
 (a)    100% of the principal amount of the Bonds of the Twenty-first Series
being redeemed; and 
 (b)    the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest
on the Bonds of the Twenty-first Series being redeemed that would be due if the Bonds of the Twenty-first Series matured on the Par Call Date (not including any portion of such payments of interest accrued as of the date of redemption), discounted
to the date of redemption on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate, plus 20 basis points, 

plus, in each case, accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount of the Bonds of the Twenty-first Series being redeemed to, but excluding, the
redemption date. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, so long as there is no existing default in the payment on the Bonds of the Twenty-first
Series, installments of interest on the Bonds of the Twenty-first Series that are due and payable on an interest payment date falling on or prior to a redemption date shall be payable on such interest payment date to the Registered Holders of the
Bonds of the Twenty-first Series as of the close of business on the relevant record date according to the Bonds of the Twenty-first Series and the Indenture, except as and to the extent the Company shall default in the payment of the interest due on
such interest payment date, in which case defaulted interest shall be paid to the person in whose name such Bond of the Twenty-first Series is registered on the date of payment of such defaulted interest. 

  
 7 

 On or after the Par Call Date, the Company shall have the right to redeem the Bonds of the
Twenty-first Series, at its option, in whole or from time to time in part, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Bonds of the Twenty-first Series being redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount

at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the third Business Day preceding such redemption date. 
 “Treasury Rate” means, with

 Except as hereinafter provided, notice of redemption of Bonds of the Twenty-first Series
shall be mailed by or on behalf of the Company, postage prepaid, at least ten and not more than forty days prior to such date of redemption, to the registered owners of all Bonds of the Twenty-first Series to be so redeemed, at their respective
addresses appearing upon the registry books. Any notice which is mailed as herein provided shall be conclusively presumed to have been properly and sufficiently given on the date of such mailing, whether or not the holder receives the notice. In any
case, failure to give due notice by mail, or any defect in the notice, to the registered owners of any Bonds of the Twenty-first Series called for redemption as a whole or in part, shall not affect the validity of the proceedings for the redemption
of any other Bond. 
 SECTION 3.    Bonds of the Twenty-first Series shall be issued in minimum denominations of $2,000
and in integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof and numbered consecutively from “R1” upward.

description of the property mortgaged and pledged, the nature and extent of the security, the terms and conditions upon which the Bonds are, and are to be, issued and secured, and the rights of the owners of the Bonds and of the Trustee in respect
of such security, and the prior liens to which the security for the Bonds is junior; capitalized terms used in this Bond of the Twenty-first Series have the respective meanings set forth in the Indenture. As provided in the Indenture, the Bonds may
be various principal sums, are issuable in series, may mature at different times, may bear interest at different rates and may otherwise vary as therein provided; and this Bond of the Twenty-first Series is one of a series entitled “4.125%

Supplemental Indenture or of modifying in any manner the rights of the holders of the Bonds and any coupons; provided, however, that (i) no such Supplemental Indenture shall, without the consent of the holder of each Outstanding
Bond affected thereby (A) extend the fixed maturity of any Bonds, change any terms of any sinking fund or analogous fund or conversion rights with respect to any Bonds, or reduce the rate or rates or extend the time of payment of interest
thereon, or reduce the principal amount thereof, or, subject to certain exceptions, limit the right of a holder of Bonds to institute suit for the enforcement of payment of principal of or any premium or interest on such Bonds in accordance with the
terms of said Bonds, or (B) reduce the aforesaid percentage of Bonds, the holders of which are required to consent to any such Supplemental Indenture, or (C) permit the creation by the Company of any Prior Lien, and (ii) no such
action which would affect the rights of holders of Bonds of only one series may be taken unless approved by the holders of more than 60% in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Bonds of such series affected, but if any such action would
affect the Bonds of two or more series, the approval of such action on behalf of the holders of Bonds of such two or more series may be effected by holders of more than 60% in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Bonds of such two or more
series, which need not include 60% in principal amount of Outstanding Bonds of each of such series; provided, however, that, in no event shall such action be effective unless approved by holders of more than 50% in aggregate principal
amount of all the then Outstanding Bonds of all such series.

interest on the Bonds of the Twenty-first Series that are due and payable on an interest payment date falling on or prior to a redemption date shall be payable on such interest payment date to the Registered Holders of the Bonds of the Twenty-first

date, in which case defaulted interest shall be paid to the person in whose name such Bond of the Twenty-first Series is registered on the date of payment of such defaulted interest. 

On or after the Par Call Date, the Company shall have the right to redeem the Bonds of the Twenty-first Series, at its option, at any time in
