Pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement, the Company agreed to hold its 1998 annual meeting of stockholders no later than July 9, 1998 and to hold a special meeting of stockholders by November 30, 1997 (unless the proxy statement relating to such meeting is reviewed by the Securities and Exchange Commission, in which case the length of time of such review shall be added to the above date) and to propose at such special meeting and every special or annual meeting thereafter until adopted, an amendment (the "Amendment") to the Certificate of Incorporation of the Company, raising the number of authorized shares of Common Stock to at least the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Series D Shares. In addition, the Amendment will permit holders of not less than 25% of the outstanding voting power of the Company to call a special meeting of stockholders. The Company agreed that it would not submit any other proposals for stockholder approval until the Amendment is approved, unless upon the advice of counsel the Company determines that it is obligated to do so under the Company's charter documents, by law or judicial order, or in order to discharge its fiduciary obligations. The Company agreed that it would not issue any additional equity securities or securities exercisable to purchase or convertible into or exchangeable for equity securities until the Amendment is approved, other than the securities reserved for issuance pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement. The Company further agreed that any additional equity securities issued after approval of the Amendment which have a liquidation preference senior to the Series D Preferred Shares shall be subject to a right of first refusal in favor of the Buyers.
The Reporting Person and holders (the "Key Stockholders") of an aggregate of 30,000,016 shares of Common Stock of the Company entered into a Stockholders Agreement, dated September 25, 1997, pursuant to which the Key Stockholders agreed to vote their shares of Common Stock in favor of the Amendment at any and all meetings of stockholders of the Company until such Amendment is adopted or September 25, 2018, if earlier. In addition, the Key Stockholders gave their proxy to a designee of the Reporting Person in order to vote in favor of the Amendment. The Reporting Person disclaims the existence of a group with the Key Stockholders.
