1



 

a.               Until two years from the Closing Date, Buyers or any affiliate of Buyers or any “group” (within the meaning of Securities Exchange Act Rule 13d-5(b)) of which a Buyer or any affiliate of a Buyer is a member (collectively referred to herein as “Buyers’ Group”) shall not purchase, by merger, tender offer, or open market purchase , any shares of common stock of the Company at a price less than the price per share set forth in paragraph 1 above; provided, however, that the provisions of this paragraph 4(a) shall not apply to a purchase of shares of common stock of the Company by Buyers’ Group in one or more privately negotiated, off-market transactions.

b.              Until two years from the Closing Date, if Buyers’ Group purchases shares of common stock of the Company for a price in excess of the price per share set forth in paragraph 1 above, Buyers shall promptly pay to each Seller an amount equal to the difference between the highest price per share paid by Buyers’ Group and the price set forth in paragraph 1 above multiplied by the number of shares set forth on Schedule A for each Seller.

c.               Until one year from the Closing Date, if Buyers’ Group disposes of any or all the Shares (whether by merger, stock sale, liquidation or otherwise) for a price in excess of the price per share paid by Buyers to Sellers hereunder, Buyers shall promptly pay to Sellers, pro rata, 90% of such excess.

d.              The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by Buyers will not violate, breach or cause a default under any agreement, law, order, judgment, decree or other obligation applicable to either Buyer.

e.               Each Buyer acknowledges that (i) Antion is a member of the Company’s Board of Directors and as a result Sellers may have information regarding the Company and its prospects that Buyers may not at this time have (and which Sellers may be restricted from disclosing), (ii) Buyers are  intimately familiar with the Company and had the opportunity to ask the Company questions regarding the Company and its prospects, (iii) each Buyer is able to fend for himself, can bear the economic risk of acquisition of the Shares and (iv) each Buyer has such knowledge and experience in financial or business matters that he is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the transaction described in this Agreement.  Each Buyer agrees not to assert any claim, or to institute any legal, equitable, administrative or other proceedings against Sellers or any of their affiliates as a result of non-disclosure of any information in Sellers’ possession.

f.                 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein as between Buyers and Sellers, the voting and disposition of the Shares acquired hereunder shall be in the sole discretion of Buyers.

 

 

5.               Miscellaneous.  This Agreement shall be binding upon, inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by, the heirs, administrators, executors and assigns of each Seller and each Buyer.  This Agreement may be assigned by Buyers, but such assignment shall not relieve Buyers of any of the obligations or duties imposed upon Buyers hereunder.  Time is of the essence herein.  Each Seller acknowledges that the Shares  are a unique asset and that money damages would not be an adequate remedy for breach of this Agreement and that Buyers shall be entitled to
