Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Iron Eagle"), with offices
located at 61 West 62nd Street, Suite 23F, New York, New York 10023
(Iron Eagle and DMG are hereinafter collectively referred to as
"Buyer") and Bruce A. Bookbinder, an individual and resident of 105
Stubble Brook Road, West Greenwich, Rhode Island 02817 (hereinafter
"Seller" or "Selling Member" or "Bookbinder") (Selling Member and Buyer
are sometimes hereinafter referred to collectively as "Parties".)
W I T N E S S E T H:
WHEREAS, Selling Member conveyed his Membership Interest in
Sycamore Enterprises LLC, a Rhode Island limited liability company, on
or about January 21, 2011 ("Closing Date") pursuant to the terms of a
Member Interest Purchase Agreement ("Purchase Agreement"); and
WHEREAS, Buyer executed a Secured Term Note ("Buyer Note") on the
Closing Date requiring payment of the Purchase Price by the Buyer for
the Membership Interest on or before June 2, 2011; and
WHEREAS, Buyer has requested an extension of the Payment Due Date, as
defined in the Purchase Agreement, and Seller has agreed to grant an
extension of the Payment Due Date subject to the terms and conditions
contained in this Agreement.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and
promises contained herein and for other good and valuable
consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby
acknowledged, the Parties hereto agree as follows:
1. Consideration for the granting of the extension of the
Payment Due Date. In consideration for the extension of the Payment Due
Date, Buyer shall, within ten (10) days following payment of the Buyer
Note ("Buyer Note Payment"), secure a full release of the indemnity by
and among Selling Member, related entities of Selling Member,
Berkley Regional Insurance Company and/or its affiliates or
subsidiaries ("Berkley") as described in that certain General Agreement
of Indemnity dated January 25, 2005 by and between Selling Member and
Berkley ("Indemnity Agreement"), a copy of which is attached hereto as
Exhibit A ("Release"). Buyer shall take all reasonable steps necessary
to provide Berkley with the substitute collateral satisfactory to
Berkley to provide the Release.
2. Indemnity Bond. In the event that Buyer has not satisfied
the conditions contained in Section 1 within thirty (30) days after the
Buyer Note Payment, Buyer shall immediately deliver to Selling Member
an indemnity bond ("Indemnity Bond"), or other mutually agreed upon
form(s) of indemnity, in a form satisfactory to Selling Member and
mutually satisfactory to the Parties, indemnifying Selling Member
personally as obligee for any obligations to Berkley or payments
required to be made by Selling Member and/or related entities of
Selling Member to Berkley, pursuant to the terms of the Indemnity
Agreement. It is further agreed that the amount of the Indemnity Bond
shall be no less than one hundred (100%) percent of the aggregate cost-
to-complete of all Open Bonds, exclusive of gross profit or change
orders that have not been approved, as further described in Exhibit B
attached hereto, as of the Buyer Note Payment. Notwithstanding the
aforementioned, the Indemnity Bond shall not indemnify Selling Member
for acts of fraud, intentional misrepresentation, gross negligence or
willful misconduct.
3. Extension. Subject to the satisfaction of the terms and
conditions described in this Agreement, Selling Member hereby agrees to
extend the Payment Due Date to the earlier occurrence of the following:
2
(i) the date funds have been received from Obligor's investment banking
firm to be obtained through proposed equity financing; or (ii)
September 16, 2011. In the event that Selling Member has not received
payment in full of the Buyer Note the Transaction shall be
automatically rescinded on September 16, 2011 ("Rescission Date").
4. Indemnification. In addition to the satisfaction of the
conditions set forth in Sections 1 and 2 above, Buyer, jointly and
severally, hereby agrees to indemnify, defend, save and hold Selling
Member harmless from and against any and all costs, damages, liability,
loss, expense, assessment, judgment, or deficiency of any nature
whatsoever (including, without limitation, reasonable attorney's fees
and other costs and expenses incident to any suit action or proceeding)
(collectively "Losses") incurred or sustained, directly or indirectly,
by Selling Member arising from or in relation to any breach by Buyer of
the terms of: (i) this Agreement; and/or (ii) the Purchase Agreement.
5. Rescission. Notwithstanding any other provision hereof and in
addition to any and all other remedies, in the event the Buyer Note is
not paid in full on or before the Rescission Date, the Transaction, as
that term is defined in the Purchase Agreement shall be considered and
is irrevocably rescinded, in which event, the Transaction, including
the sale of the Membership Interest, shall be deemed to be void ab
initio, for all purposes, including but not limited to federal and
state income tax purposes, and all of Buyer's legal and equitable
interests in the Membership Interest shall immediately revert to
Selling Member. On the Rescission Date, Selling Member will provide
Buyer with notification that the Transaction has been rescinded
consistent with Rev. Rul. 80-58, 1980-1 CB 181 (hereinafter "Rev. Rul.
80-58"). In the event of a rescission in accordance with this
Agreement, Selling Member shall have the absolute and unfettered right
to take any and all steps necessary to comply with Rev. Rul. 80-58
without the need for any further consents or assent by Buyer.
6. Ratification and Confirmation. In all other respects, the
Purchase Agreement and all transactional documents executed pursuant
thereto, including but not limited to, the Buyer Note, which do not
conflict with this Agreement are hereby ratified and confirmed as if
fully restated in this Agreement. Notwithstanding the modification to
the Payment Due Date, Buyer hereby acknowledges and agrees that the
granting of said extension does not in any way waive or modify the
Seller's rights as set forth in the Purchase Agreement, Pledge
Agreement, Buyer Note and other transactional documents.
