rights to dissent from the Merger that such Stockholder may have. Each

Shares under any trust has any right of appraisal or right to dissent
from the Merger which has not been so waived.
(d) Unless, in connection therewith, the Shares held by any
trust which are presently subject to the terms of this Agreement are
transferred to the Stockholder and remain subject in all respects to
the terms of this Agreement, or other Permitted Transferees who upon
receipt of such Shares become signatories to this Agreement, such

(c) The headings contained in this Agreement are for the
convenience of reference purposes only and shall not affect in any way
the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.
(d) If any term or other provision of this Agreement is
invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any rule of law or
public policy, all other conditions and provisions of this Agreement
shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect so long as the
economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated by the
Merger Agreement is not affected in any manner adverse to any party.
Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid,
illegal or incapable of being enforced, the parties hereto shall
negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the
original intent of the parties as closely as possible in an acceptable
manner.
(e) This Agreement, including all exhibits, disclosure
schedules and schedules hereto, constitutes the entire agreement and
supersedes all prior agreements and undertakings, both written and

(f) Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights or
obligations hereunder may be assigned by any party (whether by

other parties hereto. Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement
shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto
and their respective successors and permitted assigns, and no other
Person shall have any right, benefit or obligation under this Agreement
as a third party beneficiary or otherwise.
(g) The parties hereto agree that irreparable damage would
occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were
not performed in accordance with their specific terms. It is
accordingly agreed that the parties hereto shall be entitled to
specific performance of the terms hereof, this being in addition to any
other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity.
(h) No failure or delay on the part of any party hereto in the
exercise of any right hereunder shall impair such right or be construed
to be a waiver of, or acquiescence in, any breach of any
representation, warranty or agreement herein, nor shall any single or
partial exercise of any such right preclude other or further exercise
thereof or of any other right. All rights and remedies existing under
this Agreement are cumulative to, and not exclusive of, any rights or
remedies otherwise available.
(i) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no Person
executing this Agreement who is, or becomes during the term hereof, a
director of the Company makes any agreement or understanding herein in
his or her capacity as such director, and the agreements set forth
herein shall in no way restrict any director in the exercise of his or
her fiduciary duties as a director of the Company. The Stockholder has
executed this
-10-
11
Agreement solely in his or her capacity as the record or beneficial
holder of such Stockholder's Shares or as the trustee of a trust whose
beneficiaries are the beneficial owners of such Stockholder's Shares.
(j) Each party agrees to bear its own expenses in connection
with the transactions contemplated hereby.
(k) This Agreement shall be governed and construed in
accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without giving
effect to any choice of law or conflict of law provision or rule that
would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than
the State of New York, except to the extent that the General
Corporation Law of the State of Delaware applies as a result of the
Company being incorporated in the State of Delaware, in which case such
General Corporation Law shall apply.
(l) EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY
WAIVES TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO THIS
AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THE MERGER AGREEMENT AND
FOR ANY COUNTERCLAIM THEREIN.
