Amendment of Existing Warrant Agreement The Company and the Warrant Agent hereby amend the Existing Warrant Agreement as provided in this Section 2, effective as of the Merger Effective Time, and acknowledge and agree that the amendments to the Existing Warrant Agreement set forth in this Section 2 are necessary or desirable and that such amendments do not adversely affect the interests of the registered holders:
Procedures for Issuance and Amendment of Letters of Credit (i) Each Letter of Credit shall be issued or amended, as the case may be, upon the request of the Borrower delivered to the Issuing Bank (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) in the form of a Letter of Credit Application, appropriately completed and signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower. Such Letter of Credit Application must be received by the Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent not later than 12:00 p.m., central time at least two Business Days (or such later date and time as the Issuing Bank may agree in a particular instance in its sole discretion) prior to the proposed issuance date or date of amendment, as the case may be. In the case of a request for an initial issuance of a Letter of Credit, such Letter of Credit Application shall specify in form and detail satisfactory to the Issuing Bank: (A) the proposed issuance date of the requested Letter of Credit (which shall be a Business Day); (B) the amount thereof; (C) the expiry date thereof; (D) the name and address of the beneficiary thereof; (E) the documents to be presented by such beneficiary in case of any drawing thereunder; (F) the full text of any certificate to be presented by such beneficiary in case of any drawing thereunder; and (G) such other matters as the Issuing Bank may require. In the case of a request for an amendment of any outstanding Letter of Credit, such Letter of Credit Application shall specify in form and detail satisfactory to the Issuing Bank (w) the Letter of Credit to be amended; (x) the proposed date of amendment thereof (which shall be a Business Day); (y) the nature of the proposed amendment; and (z) such other matters as the Issuing Bank may require. (ii) Promptly after receipt of any Letter of Credit Application, the Issuing Bank will confirm with the Administrative Agent (by telephone or in writing) that the Administrative Agent has received a copy of such Letter of Credit Application from the Borrower and, if not, the Issuing Bank will provide the Administrative Agent with a copy thereof. Upon receipt by the Issuing Bank of confirmation from the Administrative Agent that the requested issuance or amendment is permitted in accordance with the terms hereof, then, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Issuing Bank shall, on the requested date, issue a Letter of Credit for the account of the Borrower or enter into the applicable amendment, as the case may be, in each case in accordance with the Issuing Bank’s usual and customary business practices. Immediately upon the issuance of each Letter of Credit, each Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to and hereby does, purchase from the Issuing Bank a participation in such Letter of Credit in an amount equal to the product of such Lender’s Percentage Share times the amount of such Letter of Credit.
Purchase of Notes and Warrants On the Closing Date, the Subscriber will purchase the Notes and Warrants as principal for its own account for investment only and not with a view toward, or for resale in connection with, the public sale or any distribution thereof.
Warrant Agreement and Registration and Shareholder Rights Agreement The Company shall have entered into the Warrant Agreement, in the form of Exhibit A hereto, and the Registration and Shareholder Rights Agreement, in the form of Exhibit B hereto, in each case on terms satisfactory to the Purchaser.
Purchase of Convertible Debentures Subject to the satisfaction (or waiver) of the terms and conditions of this Agreement, each Buyer agrees, severally and not jointly, to purchase at Closing (as defined herein below) and the Company agrees to sell and issue to each Buyer, severally and not jointly, at Closing, Convertible Debentures in amounts corresponding with the Subscription Amount set forth opposite each Buyer's name on Schedule I hereto. Upon execution hereof by a Buyer, the Buyer shall wire transfer the Subscription Amount set forth opposite his name on Schedule I in same-day funds or a check payable to "First Union National Bank, as Escrow Agent for Vertical Computer Systems, Inc. / Cornell Capital Partners, LP", which Subscription Amount shall be held in escrow pursuant to the terms of the Escrow Agreement (as hereinafter defined) and disbursed in accordance therewith. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Buyer may withdraw his Subscription Amount and terminate this Agreement as to such Buyer at any time after the execution hereof and prior to Closing (as hereinafter defined).
Execution of Debentures The Debentures shall be signed in the name and on behalf of the Company by the manual or facsimile signature of its Chairman of the Board of Directors, Chief Executive Officer, Vice Chairman, President, one of its Managing Directors or one of its Executive Vice Presidents, Senior Vice Presidents or Vice Presidents. Only such Debentures as shall bear thereon a certificate of authentication substantially in the form herein before recited, executed by the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent by the manual signature of an authorized signer, shall be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose. Such certificate by the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent upon any Debenture executed by the Company shall be conclusive evidence that the Debenture so authenticated has been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder and that the holder is entitled to the benefits of this Indenture. In case any officer of the Company who shall have signed any of the Debentures shall cease to be such officer before the Debentures so signed shall have been authenticated and delivered by the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent, or disposed of by the Company, such Debentures nevertheless may be authenticated and delivered or disposed of as though the Person who signed such Debentures had not ceased to be such officer of the Company; and any Debenture may be signed on behalf of the Company by such Persons as, at the actual date of the execution of such Debenture, shall be the proper officers of the Company, although at the date of the execution of this Indenture any such person was not such an officer. Every Debenture shall be dated the date of its authentication.
Warrant Agreement and Registration Rights Agreement The Company shall have entered into the Warrant Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement, each on terms satisfactory to the Purchaser.

(b) The amendments set forth in Part II of this Amendment (together with the amendments set forth in Part I solely relating to transaction costs associated with the IPO referred to in clause (a)(iv)(B) of the “Consolidated EBITDA” definition and the corresponding reference in the “Excess Cash Flow” definition) shall be effective on the date on which all of the following conditions precedent have been satisfied or waived (the “Second Effective Date”): (i) The conditions set forth in Section 10(a) above shall have been satisfied; and (ii) (A) The IPO shall have been consummated on or before September 30, 2004, and (B) the Borrower shall have purchased, retired or redeemed (or made arrangements satisfactory to the Administrative Agent to do so; it being understood that open market purchases, a cash tender offer pursuant to documents provided to the Administrative Agent on or before the Second Effective Date and arrangements for redemptions pursuant to the Senior Subordinated Note Indenture are all satisfactory to the Administrative Agent) the Loans or the Senior Subordinated Notes in an aggregate principal amount not less than $75,000,000.

(d) The Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and each Lender (via IntraLinks or such other means reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent) of the occurrence of the First Effective Date, the Second Effective Date and the Third Effective Date.
Issuance of Warrants and Execution and Delivery of Warrant Certificates (a) All Warrant Certificates shall be in registered form, shall contain such appropriate insertions, omissions, substitutions and other variations as are required or permitted by this Agreement and may have such letters, numbers or other marks of identification or designation and such legends or endorsements placed thereon as may, consistently herewith, be determined by a duly authorized representative of the Company (each, an "Authorized Person"), as evidenced conclusively by the execution of such Warrant Certificates and as are not inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement, or as may be required to comply with any law or with any rule or regulation. (b) The Warrant Agent shall, upon receipt of the Warrant Certificates duly executed on behalf of the Company, countersign one or more global warrant certificates (the "Global Warrant Certificates") evidencing the Warrants and shall, subject to paragraph (a) above, deliver such Global Warrant Certificates to or upon the written order of the Company. Subsequent to such original issuance of the Warrant Certificates, the Warrant Agent shall countersign Warrant Certificates only if such Warrant Certificates are issued in exchange or substitution for one or more previously countersigned Warrant Certificates, as the case may be, or, in connection with their transfer, as hereinafter provided or as provided in Section 6(a) or Section 18, but subject to the provisions of Section 7. A Global Warrant Certificate shall be, and shall remain, subject to the provisions of this Agreement until such time as all of the Warrants evidenced thereby shall have been duly exercised or shall have expired or been canceled in accordance with the terms thereof. No Warrant Certificate shall be valid for any purpose, and no Warrant evidenced thereby shall be exercisable, until such Warrant Certificate has been countersigned by the manual signature of the Warrant Agent. Such signature by the Warrant Agent upon any Warrant Certificate executed by the Company shall be conclusive evidence that such Warrant Certificate so countersigned has been duly issued hereunder. (c) Each Warrant Certificate shall be signed on behalf of the Company by an Authorized Person. Such signature may be the manual or facsimile signature of such persons and may be imprinted or otherwise reproduced on the Warrant Certificates. In case any Authorized Person who shall have signed any of the Warrant Certificates either manually or by facsimile signature shall cease to be an Authorized Person, before the Warrant Certificates shall have been countersigned and delivered by the Warrant Agent, such Warrant Certificates may be countersigned and delivered notwithstanding that a person who signed such Warrant Certificate ceased to be such an Authorized Person, and any Warrant Certificate may be signed on behalf of the Company by such persons as, at the actual date of the execution of such Warrant Certificate, shall be Authorized Persons, although at the date of the execution of this Agreement any such person was not such an Authorized Person.
Authentication and Delivery of Debt Securities At any time and from time to time after the execution and delivery of this Indenture, the Partnership may deliver Debt Securities of any series executed by the Partnership to the Trustee for authentication, and the Trustee shall thereupon authenticate and deliver said Debt Securities to or upon a Partnership Order. In authenticating such Debt Securities, and accepting the additional responsibilities under this Indenture in relation to such Debt Securities, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive, and (subject to Section 7.01) shall be fully protected in relying upon: (a) a copy of any resolution or resolutions of the Board of Directors, certified by the Secretary or Assistant Secretary of the General Partner, authorizing the terms of issuance of any series of Debt Securities; (b) an executed supplemental Indenture, if any; (c) an Officers’ Certificate; and (d) an Opinion of Counsel prepared in accordance with Section 13.05 which shall also state: (i) that the form of such Debt Securities has been established by or pursuant to a resolution of the Board of Directors or by a supplemental Indenture as permitted by Section 2.01 in conformity with the provisions of this Indenture; (ii) that the terms of such Debt Securities have been established by or pursuant to a resolution of the Board of Directors or by a supplemental Indenture as permitted by Section 2.03 in conformity with the provisions of this Indenture; (iii) that such Debt Securities, when authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and issued by the Partnership in the manner and subject to any conditions specified in such Opinion of Counsel, will constitute valid and legally binding obligations of the Partnership, enforceable in accordance with their terms except as the enforceability thereof may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency or similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and rights of acceleration and the availability of equitable remedies may be limited by equitable principles of general applicability; (iv) that the Partnership has the partnership power to issue such Debt Securities and has duly taken all necessary partnership action with respect to such issuance; (v) that the issuance of such Debt Securities will not contravene the organizational documents of the Partnership or result in any material violation of any of the terms or provisions of any law or regulation or of any material indenture, mortgage or other agreement known to such counsel by which the Partnership is bound; (vi) that authentication and delivery of such Debt Securities and the execution and delivery of any supplemental Indenture will not violate the terms of this Indenture; and (vii) such other matters as the Trustee may reasonably request. Such Opinion of Counsel need express no opinion as to whether a court in the United States would render a money judgment in a currency other than that of the United States. The Trustee shall have the right to decline to authenticate and deliver any Debt Securities under this Section 2.05 if the Trustee, being advised by counsel, determines that such action may not lawfully be taken or if the Trustee in good faith by its board of directors or trustees, executive committee or a trust committee of directors, trustees or officers (or any combination thereof) shall determine that such action would expose the Trustee to personal liability to existing Holders. The Trustee may appoint an authenticating agent reasonably acceptable to the Partnership to authenticate Debt Securities of any series. Unless limited by the terms of such appointment, an authenticating agent may authenticate Debt Securities whenever the Trustee may do so. Each reference in this Indenture to authentication by the Trustee includes authentication by such agent. An authenticating agent has the same rights as any Registrar, paying agent or agent for service of notices and demands. Unless otherwise provided in the form of Debt Security for any series, each Debt Security shall be dated the date of its authentication.
