Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with
Respect to Securities of the Issuer.
Item 6 is hereby amended by adding the following at the end thereof:
On January 20, 1998, TPG and the Issuer entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement (the "Stock Purchase Agreement"). On the same date TPG, Parallel and the Issuer entered into (i) an amendment to the Registration Rights Agreement dated December 21, 1995, by and among the same parties (the "Registration Rights Amendment"), and (ii) an agreement relating to the waiver by TPG of its preemptive rights (the "Preemptive Rights Wavier") in connection with the Issuer's pending public offering of $100,000,000 of its Common Stock (the "Public Offering"). The description herein of the Stock Purchase Agreement, the Registration Rights Amendment and the Preemptive Rights Waiver are not, and do not purport to be, complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to copies of such agreements which are attached hereto as Exhibits 10.5, 4.5 and 10.6, respectively.
Stock Purchase Agreement
Pursuant to the Stock Purchase Agreement, TPG agreed, subject to the conditions set forth therein, to purchase shares of the Common Stock from the Issuer for a total purchase price of $5,000,000. TPG's obligation to purchase the shares of Common Stock are subject to and conditioned upon (i) the closing of the Public Offering, (ii) the effectiveness of a registration statement relating to the shares being purchased by TPG, and (iii) the delivery to TPG of a final prospectus relating to its purchase of shares. The purchase price per share for the shares to be purchased by TPG shall be the price per share of the Common Stock to the public in the Public Offering less underwriting discounts and commissions; provided, however, that the purchase price shall be subject to approval of the Toronto Stock Exchange ("TSE"), and in the event that the TSE does not approve such purchase price, the purchase price shall be 100% of the price per share to the public in the Public Offering.
TPG has agreed not to sell or otherwise dispose of any of the shares of Common Stock purchased by it under the Stock Purchase Agreement for a period of six months from the date of the closing of the Public Offering without the prior consent of the TSE.
Registration Rights Amendment
The Registration Rights Amendment amends the Registration Rights Agreement to provide that shares of the Common Stock acquired by TPG under the Stock Purchase Agreement will constitute "Subject Common Shares" as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement and will thus be eligible for the benefits of such agreement.
Preemptive Rights Waiver
Pursuant to the Preemptive Rights Waiver, TPG waived its rights to purchase additional shares of the Common Stock of the Issuer in the Public Offering so as to maintain its pro rata ownership in the equity securities of the Issuer. TPG's waiver of its preemptive rights with respect to the Public Offering shall expire if the Public Offering shall not have occurred by March 31, 1998.
Except as set forth herein or in the exhibits filed herewith, there are no contracts, arrangements, understandings or relationships with respect to the shares of the capital stock of the Issuer owned by the Reporting Persons.
