1. Certain Matters

 

1.1 Certain Definitions. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein or unless the context otherwise requires, initially capitalized terms used in this Agreement have the meanings set forth in Schedule 1.0.

 

2. Purchase and Sale

 

2.1 Acquisition. On and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and applicable Transaction Documents, at the Closing, Sellers shall sell, assign, transfer and deliver 100% of their respective right, title and interest in, to and under the Seller Shares to Buyer in exchange for the Purchase Price in accordance with the terms set forth in Schedule 2.0, free and clear of all Liens other than Permitted Encumbrances. As used herein, the term “Acquisition” shall mean and refer to the purchase of the Seller Shares by Buyer.

 

2.2 The Closing. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions hereinbefore and hereinafter set forth, the consummation of this Agreement and the Acquisition contemplated herein (the "Closing") shall take place on or before SEPTEMBER ____, 2018, or, if all of the conditions to the Closing are not satisfied on that date, on the first date thereafter on which all of such conditions are satisfied.

3. Warranties and Representations Relating to Seller and CCS

 

Sellers represent and warrant to Buyer that the statements contained in this Section 3 are true, correct and complete as of the Effective Date and as of the Closing Date, subject to and except as set forth in the Seller Disclosure Schedule delivered by Sellers to Buyer on the date hereof. Nothing in the Seller Disclosure Schedule shall be deemed adequate to disclose an exception to a representation or warranty made herein unless the Seller Disclosure Schedule identifies the exception with reasonable particularity and describes the relevant facts in reasonable detail. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the mere listing (or inclusion of a copy) of a document or other item shall not be deemed adequate to disclose an exception to a representation or warranty made herein (unless the representation or warranty has to do with the existence of the document or other item itself). The Seller Disclosure Schedule will be arranged in paragraphs corresponding to the lettered and numbered paragraphs contained in this Section 3.

 

 

3.1 Due Organization, Authorization and Good Standing. CCS is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of Alabama. CCS is qualified to do business and is in good standing as a foreign Person, as the case may be, in each jurisdiction in which the ownership of its properties and the nature and extent of the activities transacted by it makes such qualification necessary. CCS has full corporate power and corporate authority to carry on its business, to own and use the properties owned and used by it and to perform its obligations under this Agreement.

 

3.2 Capitalization. Sellers are the sole holders of the Seller Shares and, collectively, the sole shareholders of CCS. The Seller Shares have been validly issued and are fully vested, paid and nonassessable. None of the Sellers have assigned, mortgaged, hypothecated or pledged any interest in the Seller Shares to any third party. No third party has any ownership, claim, lien or economic interest in CCS either as a shareholder or otherwise. There are no warrants, rights, options, conversion privileges, stock purchase plans or other contractual obligations which obligate Sellers to offer, issue, purchase or redeem any equity or other interest of CCS or other ownership interest or debt or other securities convertible into or exchangeable for shares of CCS capital stock (now, in the future or upon the occurrence of any contingency) or which provides for any equity appreciation or similar right. There are no shareholder agreements in existence to which either the Sellers, CCS, or the Seller Shares are in any way bound, except a buy and sell agreement which Sellers and CCS hereby waive.

 

3.3 Authorization. Sellers have the requisite power and authority to enter into, execute, deliver and perform this Agreement, and/or to consummate all transactions contemplated thereby. The execution and delivery of this Agreement by Sellers and the consummation by Sellers of the transactions contemplated hereby have been duly and validly authorized by all necessary corporate or other action, and no other corporate or partnership proceedings on the part of Sellers are necessary to authorize this Agreement or to consummate the transactions so contemplated. This Agreement is the valid and legally binding obligation of Sellers, enforceable against each of them in accordance with the terms, subject to bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium, reorganization and similar laws of general applicability affecting the rights and remedies of creditors and to general principles of equity, regardless of whether enforcement is sought in proceedings in equity or at law.

 

3.4 No Violation or Approval.

 

3.4.1 Subject to and except as set forth on Section 3.4 of the Seller Disclosure Schedule, neither the execution and delivery of this Agreement by Seller, nor the consummation or performance of any of the Contemplated Transactions will, directly or indirectly (with or without notice or lapse of time): (i) Breach or otherwise conflict with any provision of the Organizational Documents of CCS, or contravene any resolution adopted by the officers, managers, or members of CCS; (ii) Breach or otherwise conflict with any Legal Requirement or Order to which Sellers or CCS may be subject or give any Governmental Body or other Person the right to challenge the Contemplated Transactions or to exercise any remedy or obtain any relief under any Legal Requirement or any Order to which Sellers or CCS may be subject; (iii) Breach or otherwise conflict with or result in a violation or Breach of any of the terms or requirements of, or give any Governmental Body the right to revoke, withdraw, suspend, cancel, terminate or modify, any Governmental Authorization that is held or being applied for by or on behalf of CCS, or that otherwise relates to CCS, or the CCS business; (iv) to Sellers’ knowledge, cause Buyer (or any Related Person thereof) to become subject to, or to become liable for the payment of, any Tax; (v) Breach or otherwise conflict with any provision of, or give any Person the right to declare a default or exercise any remedy under, or to accelerate the maturity or performance of, or payment under, or to cancel, terminate or modify, any contract or agreement to which CCS is a party or by which CCS is bound; or (vi), result in the imposition or creation of any Lien on CCS, or the CCS business.

 

3.4.2 Subject to and except as set forth on Section 3.4 of the Seller Disclosure Schedule, neither Sellers nor CCS are required to give any notice to, or obtain any Consent from, any Person in connection with the execution and delivery of this Agreement or the consummation of any of the Contemplated Transactions, including any Consent required in order to preserve and maintain all Governmental Authorizations required for the ownership and continued operation of the CCS business, either before or after Closing, and the consummation of the Contemplated Transactions. Any registration, declaration, or filing with, or Consent, or Governmental Authorization or Order by, any Governmental Body with respect to CCS that is required in connection with the consummation of the Contemplated Transactions has been completed, made, or obtained on or before the Closing Date.

 

 

3.5 Litigation. Except as set forth in Section 3.5 of the Seller Disclosure Schedule (which lists pending or threatened Proceedings, all of which are referred to as “Current Litigation Matters”), (i) there is no pending or, to each of the Sellers’ Knowledge, threatened Proceeding by or against Sellers or CCS that relates to or may affect CCS, or the CCS business, that challenges, or that may have the effect of preventing, delaying, making illegal or otherwise interfering with, any of the Contemplated Transactions; (ii) no event has occurred or circumstance exists that is reasonably likely to give rise to or serve as a Basis for the commencement of any such Proceeding; (iii) there is no Order to which Sellers or CCS, or the CCS business are subject or that in any way relates to or could reasonably be expected to affect CCS, or the CCS business; (iv) no officer, director, member, manager, agent or employee of the CCS is subject to any Order that prohibits such officer, director member, manager, agent or employee from engaging in or continuing any conduct, activity or practice relating to the CCS business; (v) each of Sellers and CCS are, and at all times have been, in compliance with all of the terms and requirements of any Order; (vi) no event has occurred or circumstance exists that is reasonably likely to constitute or result in (with or without notice or lapse of time) a violation of or failure to comply with any term or requirement of any such Order; and (vi), neither Sellers nor CCS has received any notice or other communication (whether written or oral) from any Governmental Body or any other Person regarding any actual, alleged, possible or potential violation of, or failure to comply with, any term or requirement of any such Order.

The CCS Financial Statements (including the notes thereto) have been prepared in good faith by the staff of CCS, present fairly the financial condition of the CCS as of such dates and the results of operations of CCS for such periods, are correct and complete, and are consistent with the books and records of CCS (which books and records are correct and complete); provided, however, that the CCS Financial Statements are subject to normal adjustments (which will not be material individually or in the aggregate). Subject to and except as disclosed in Section 3.6 of the Seller Disclosure Schedule, (i) the CCS Debts shall be fully paid and satisfied at the Closing, (ii) CCS has not incurred any Liability, and there is no Basis for any present or future action, suit, proceeding, hearing, investigation, charge, complaint, claim, or demand against CCS giving rise to any Liability; (iii) all Accounts Receivable that are reflected in the CCS Financial Statements and/or in the business records of CCS represent valid obligations arising from sales actually made or services actually performed by CCS in the Ordinary Course of Business; (iv) there is no contest, defense or right of set-off currently being claimed or, to the Knowledge of Seller, expected to be claimed, by any account debtor with respect to any Account Receivable, or any part thereof; (v) except to the extent paid prior to the Closing Date, such Accounts Receivable are or will be as of the Closing Date current and collectible net of the respective reserves shown on the CCS Financial Statements and/or in the business records of CCS (which reserves are adequate and calculated consistent with past practice); (vi) subject to such reserves, each of such Accounts Receivable either has been or will be collected in full, without any setoff, within ninety (90) days after the day on which it first becomes due and payable; and (vii), Sellers have provided Buyer with a complete and accurate list of the current Accounts Receivable of CCS current to within five (5) days of the Closing Date, which list sets forth the aging of each such Account Receivable.

 

3.7 Taxes. Sellers and CCS have complied with all of their obligations with respect to the timely payment of all Tax applicable to the Seller Shares, CCS, and all CCS Assets. All Taxes owed by or attributable to the Sellers, CCS, and the CCS Assets have been paid. There is no proceeding through 2017, or audit by any taxing authority or any claim for refund now in progress through 2017, pending or threatened against or with respect to the Sellers or CCS regarding taxes with respect to the Seller Shares, CCS, or the CCS Assets. Sellers have no Knowledge of any reasonable basis for the assertion of any claim relating or attributable to Taxes which, if adversely determined, would result in any encumbrance or lien on the Seller Shares, CCS, or any of the CCS Assets. Except as set forth in Section 3.7 of the Seller Disclosure Schedule, CCS has duly filed, on a timely basis all Tax Returns which they are required to file, and all material liabilities for Tax (including interest and penalties) have been paid.

3.8 Title to Seller Shares. Sellers have good and valid title to the Seller Shares, in each case free and clear of all claim, charge, lease, covenant, easement, encumbrance, security interest, lien, option, pledge, rights of others, or restriction (whether on voting, sale, transfer, disposition or otherwise), whether imposed by agreement, understanding, law, equity or otherwise, of any kind or character (collectively, “Liens”). Sellers shall transfer the Seller Shares to Buyer free and clear of all Liens other than Permitted Encumbrances.

Section 3.9.2 of the Seller Disclosure Schedule contains a complete and accurate list and summary of all Intellectual Property owned or possessed by CCS, or which CCS has the right to use pursuant to a valid and enforceable, written license, sublicense, agreement, or permission (collectively and together with the Intangible Personal Property, the “Intellectual Property Assets”). Such Intellectual Property Assets constitute all of the Intellectual Property necessary for the operation of the businesses of CCS as presently conducted. The Intellectual Property Assets do not infringe on the intellectual property rights of any Person.

Each Party acknowledges that in the course of the performance of this Agreement, it may obtain the Confidential Information of the other Party. The Receiving Party shall, at all times, both during the term of this Agreement and thereafter, keep in confidence and trust all of the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information received by it. The Receiving Party shall not use the Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party other than as expressly permitted under the terms of this Agreement or by a separate written agreement. The Receiving Party shall take all reasonable steps to prevent unauthorized disclosure or use of the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information and to prevent it from falling into the public domain or into the possession of unauthorized persons. The Receiving Party shall not disclose Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party to any person or entity other than its officers, employees, consultants and permitted sublicensees who need access to such Confidential Information in order to effect the intent of this Agreement and who have entered into confidentiality agreements with such person’s employer which protects the Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party. The Receiving Party shall promptly give notice to the Disclosing Party of any unauthorized use or disclosure of Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information. The Receiving Party agrees to assist the Disclosing Party to remedy such unauthorized use or disclosure of its Confidential Information, which remedies shall include injunctive relief without the necessity of posting a bond or proving damages. These obligations shall not apply to the extent that Confidential Information includes information which: is already known to the Receiving Party at the time of disclosure, which knowledge the Receiving Party shall have the burden of proving; is, or, through no act or failure to act of the Receiving Party, becomes publicly known; is received by the Receiving Party from a third party without restriction on disclosure; is independently developed by the Receiving Party without reference to the Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party, which independent development the Receiving Party will have the burden of proving; is approved for release by written authorization of the Disclosing Party; is required to be disclosed by a government agency to further the objectives of this Agreement, by a proper order of a court of competent jurisdiction, or is required to be disclosed by law or pursuant to the requirements of a recognized stock exchange; provided, however that the Receiving Party will use its best efforts to minimize such disclosure and will consult with and assist the Disclosing Party in obtaining a protective order prior to such disclosure. For avoidance of doubt, no public disclosure shall be made by any Party hereto at any time in the absence of the prior written consent of each of the other Parties hereto, including pursuant to any applicable requirement to file a current report on Form 8K, or other regulatory disclosure in connection with the execution hereof.

 

 

6.2.1 Each Seller hereby acknowledges and agrees that, through his ownership or operation of CCS, he has occupied positions of trust and confidence with respect to CCS up to the date hereof and has had access to, and has become familiar with, some or all of the following documents, materials and information relating to CCS, any and all of which constitute confidential and proprietary information of CCS (collectively, the "CCS Confidential Information"): (i) Customer Lists, current and anticipated customer requirements, price lists, market studies and business plans; (ii) historical and projected sales data, financial data and projections, capital spending budgets and operating budgets; (iii) personnel training techniques and materials, and personnel files; (iv) environmental studies, reports, and analyses, and any related regulatory filings or submissions, including summaries, memoranda, reports, compilations or other derivations thereof; and (v) any and all other confidential or proprietary information concerning the affairs or conduct of CCS prior to the date hereof, whether prepared by or on behalf of the parties hereto.

 

6.2.2 Each Seller hereby acknowledges and agrees that the protection of CCS Confidential Information is necessary to protect and preserve the value of CCS, the CCS Assets and the Business, and that without such protection, Buyer would not have entered into this Agreement and consummated the Contemplated Transactions. Accordingly, subject to the provisions of Section 6.2.3, each Seller hereby covenants and agrees, for himself, his representatives and affiliates and his successors and permitted assigns, that, without the prior written consent of Buyer (which consent will be at the Buyer's absolute discretion to give or withhold), each Seller will not, nor will any Seller cause or permit any of his representatives or affiliates to, at any time on or after the Closing Date and through the fifth anniversary of the Closing Date, directly or indirectly, disclose to any third party or use for his own account or benefit or for the account or benefit of any other party, any CCS Confidential Information.

 

6.2.3 The provisions of the preceding paragraph will not apply to any CCS Confidential Information (i) that Sellers can demonstrate with documentary evidence is generally known to, and available for use by, the public other than as a result of the breach of this Agreement or any other agreement pursuant to which any person (including the party or any Representative or Affiliate thereof) owes any duty of confidentiality to the other party or previously owed any duty of confidentiality to the other party, or (ii) that is required to be disclosed pursuant to law or an administrative or judicial order so long as Buyer is notified of any such proceeding prior to the issuance of such order as set forth below. If a Seller (including any representative or affiliate thereof) becomes compelled by any Legal Requirement or an administrative or judicial order to disclose any CCS Confidential Information, such Seller will provide Buyer with prompt written notice of such requirement so that Buyer or CCS may seek a protective order or other remedy in respect of such compelled disclosure. If such a protective order or other remedy is not obtained by or is not available to Buyer or CCS, then such Seller will be responsible for ensuring that only the minimum portion of such CCS Confidential Information that is legally required to be disclosed is so disclosed, and such Seller will use all reasonable efforts to obtain assurances that confidential treatment will be given to such CCS Confidential Information.

Buyer, either directly or through CCS, will be entitled to control any Remedial Action, any Proceeding relating to a claim that any Environmental Law has been violated and any other Proceeding with respect to which indemnity may be sought under this Section 6.3.

 

6.3.4 Time Limitations.

 

6.3.4.1 For purposes of this Agreement, a Buyer Indemnified Person may only assert a claim for indemnification under Section 6.3.3 during the applicable period of time (the “Buyer Claims Period”) commencing on the date of this Agreement and continuing until the date that is TWO (2) YEARS after the Closing Date.

 

6.3.4.2 For purposes of this Agreement, a Sellers Indemnified Person may only assert a claim for indemnification under Section 6.3.2 during the applicable period of time (the “Sellers Claims Period”) commencing on the date of this Agreement and continuing until the date that is TWO (2) YEARS after the Closing Date.

 

 

6.3.4.3 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 6, if before 5:00 p.m. (eastern time) on the last day of the applicable Buyer Claims Period or Sellers Claims Period, any Party against which an indemnification claim has been made hereunder has been properly notified in writing of such claim for indemnity hereunder and the basis thereof, including with reasonable supporting details for such claim (to the extent then known), and such claim has not been finally resolved or disposed of as of such date, then such claim will continue to survive and will remain a basis for indemnity hereunder until such claim is finally resolved or disposed of in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

 

6.3.5 Payment of Claims. A claim for indemnification may be asserted by written notice to the Party from whom indemnification is sought and will be paid promptly after such notice, and satisfying the Party’s right to be heard, together with satisfactory proof of Adverse Consequences or other documents evidencing the basis of the Adverse Consequences sought, are received.

 

6.3.6 Third-Party Claims. No later than ten (10) Business Days after receipt by a Person entitled to indemnity under Section 6 hereof (an “Indemnified Person”) of notice of the assertion of a Third-Party Claim against it, such Indemnified Person shall give notice to the Person obligated to indemnify under such section (an “Indemnifying Person”) of the assertion of such Third-Party Claim and a copy of any writing by which, such Third-Party assertion is made. The failure to notify the Indemnifying Person will relieve the Indemnifying Person of any liability that it may have to any Indemnified Person to the extent that the Indemnifying Person demonstrates that the defense of such Third-Party Claim is materially prejudiced by the Indemnified Person’s failure to give such notice. If an Indemnified Person gives notice to the Indemnifying Person hereunder of the assertion of a Third-Party Claim, the Indemnifying Person shall be entitled to participate in the defense of such Third-Party Claim and, to the extent that it wishes (unless (i) the Indemnifying Person is also a Person against whom the Third-Party Claim is made and the Indemnified Person determines in good faith that joint representation would be inappropriate, or (ii), the Indemnifying Person fails to provide reasonable assurance to the Indemnified Person of its financial capacity to defend such Third-Party Claim and provide indemnification with respect to such Third-Party Claim), to assume the defense of such Third-Party Claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Person (provided, such counsel has appropriate experience in the subject matter relating to the claim). After notice from the Indemnifying Person to the Indemnified Person of its election to assume the defense of such Third-Party Claim, the Indemnifying Person shall not, so long as it diligently conducts such defense, be liable to the Indemnified Person hereunder for any fees of other counsel or any other expenses with respect to the defense of such Third-Party Claim, in each case subsequently incurred by the Indemnified Person in connection with the defense of such Third-Party Claim, other than reasonable costs of investigation. If the Indemnifying Person assumes the defense of a Third-Party Claim, such assumption will conclusively establish for purposes of this Agreement that the claims made in that Third-Party Claim are within the scope of and subject to indemnification, and no compromise or settlement of such Third-Party Claims may be effected by the Indemnifying Person without the Indemnified Person’s Consent unless there is no finding or admission of any violation of Legal Requirement or any violation of the rights of any Person, the sole relief provided is monetary damages that are paid in full by the Indemnifying Person; and, the Indemnified Person shall have no liability with respect to any compromise or settlement of such Third-Party Claims effected without its Consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld. If notice is given to an Indemnifying Person of the assertion of any Third-Party Claim and the Indemnifying Person does not, within ten (10) days after the Indemnified Person’s notice is given, give notice to the Indemnified Person of its election to assume the defense of such Third-Party Claim, the Indemnifying Person will be bound by any determination made in such Third-Party Claim or any compromise or settlement effected by the Indemnified Person.

 

6.3.6.1 Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an Indemnified Person determines in good faith that there is a reasonable probability that a Third-Party Claim may adversely affect it or its Related Persons other than as a result of monetary damages for which it would be entitled to indemnification under this Agreement, the Indemnified Person may, by notice to the Indemnifying Person, assume the exclusive right to defend, compromise or settle such Third-Party Claim, but the Indemnifying Person will not be bound by any determination of any Third-Party Claim so defended for the purposes of this Agreement or any compromise or settlement effected without its Consent (which may not be unreasonably withheld).

 

6.3.6.2 Sellers hereby consents to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of any court in which a Proceeding in respect of a Third-Party Claim is brought against any Buyer Indemnified Person for purposes of any claim that a Buyer Indemnified Person may have under this Agreement with respect to such Proceeding or the matters alleged therein and agree that process may be served on Sellers with respect to such a claim anywhere in the world.

 

 

6.3.6.3 With respect to any Third-Party Claim subject to indemnification under this Section 6, both the Indemnified Person and the Indemnifying Person, as the case may be, shall keep the other Person fully informed of the status of such Third-Party Claim and any related Proceedings at all stages thereof where such Person is not represented by its own counsel; and the parties agree (each at its own expense) to render to each other such assistance as they may reasonably require of each other and to cooperate in good faith with each other in order to ensure the proper and adequate defense of any Third-Party Claim.

 

6.3.6.4 With respect to any Third-Party Claim subject to indemnification under this Section 6, the parties agree to cooperate in such a manner as to preserve in full (to the extent possible) the confidentiality of all Confidential Information and the attorney-client and work-product privileges. In connection therewith, each party agrees that: it will use its best efforts, in respect of any Third-Party Claim in which it has assumed or participated in the defense, to avoid production of Confidential Information (consistent with applicable law and rules of procedure); and all communications between any party hereto and counsel responsible for or participating in the defense of any Third-Party Claim shall, to the extent possible, be made so as to preserve any applicable attorney-client or work-product privilege.

 

6.3.7 Limitation of Liability. Notwithstanding anything stated to the contrary herein, the Sellers’ maximum liability under this Section 6.3 shall be limited to the Indemnity Caps for any Claims arising from circumstances which do not involve willful misconduct or fraud.

 

6.3.8 Other Remedies. The foregoing right of any setoff provisions, holdback provisions and indemnification provisions are in addition to, and not in derogation of, any statutory, equitable, or common law remedy any Party may have in connection with this Agreement and the Contemplated Transactions.

 

6.3.9 Escrow Payment to Gentle. Buyer shall deposit $153,333.33 in immediately available U.S. cash funds into an escrow account at Metro Bank in the name of Buyer and Gentle at Closing (“Escrow Account”), which shall be released to Gentle as payment against his pro-rata portion of the Escrow Note in two equal payments of 50% on the first and second anniversaries of the Closing, on and subject to this paragraph, this Agreement and the Transaction Documents.
