Re: Xpedite Systems, Inc. ("XSI")
Gentlemen:
On behalf of XSI, we are in receipt of your offer dated July 7, 1997,
as modified by our discussions on July 7, 8, 9 and 10, and your amended 13D
filing of July 10, 1997, and our discussions thereafter and our letter agreement
dated July 13, 1997 (collectively, the "Offer") to acquire XSI.
Please be advised of the following:
1. XSI is not currently considering any offer to purchase XSI or any
of its assets, other than the Offer. XSI will not solicit or take any other
action to facilitate any further offers to acquire XSI, except in connection
with the Offer or, after notice thereof to UBS Capital LLC ("UBS"), as required
by the Board of Directors of XSI pursuant to the good faith discharge of its
fiduciary duties to XSI's stockholders. XSI will promptly notify UBS of any
written inquiries or offers (and the terms thereof) XSI may receive concerning
the acquisition of all or any substantial portion of the capital stock or assets
of, or any other business combination involving, XSI.
2. In consideration of your agreement to extend the Offer (as
described below), XSI agrees to reimburse you for your reasonable and documented
out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with the Offer from and including
July 12, 1997 until the earlier to occur of (i) the termination of this letter
agreement or (ii) 5:00 p.m. EDT on July 17, 1997 (the "Expenses"); PROVIDED,
that in no event shall XSI be required to reimburse UBS for more than $100,000
of Expenses.
3. The agreements and rights set forth in this letter shall terminate
on, and the Offer shall remain open until, the earlier to occur of (i) 5:00 p.m.
EDT on July 17, 1997 or (ii) such earlier date as may be agreed upon by the
parties hereto; provided, that your rights under Paragraph 2 hereof shall
survive such termination.
Please indicate your agreement with the foregoing by signing a copy of
this letter and returning such signed copy to the Special Committee (with copies
to Neil Torpey at Paul, Hastings, Janofsky & Walker LLP).
Very truly yours,
