Person shall include securities Beneficially Owned by all Affiliates of such Person and all
other Persons with whom such Person would constitute a
1

not in writing, to effect any of the foregoing. As a verb, “Transfer” shall have a
correlative meaning.
Section 2. No Disposition.
Subject to Section 4, each Stockholder agrees that from and after the date hereof, except as
contemplated by this Agreement, such Stockholder will not (as a Stockholder, trustee or
custodian) Transfer or agree to Transfer any of such Stockholder’s Owned Shares or any
options or warrants or other rights held or owned by such Stockholder to acquire Company
Common Stock (other than any transfer of an option or warrant to the Company in connection
with the exercise of such option or warrant by such Stockholder) without Purchaser’s prior
written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed in the context
of a Transfer to any member of the immediate family of such Stockholder or to any trust the
Beneficial Ownership of which is held by such Stockholder, provided in each case that such
transferee agrees, in a form satisfactory to Purchaser, to be bound by the terms of this
Agreement), or grant any proxy or power-of-attorney with respect to any such Company Common
Stock other than pursuant to this Agreement.
Section 3. Agreement to Vote. Subject to Section 4, each Stockholder agrees
that:
(a) at such time as the Company conducts a meeting (including any adjournment thereof)
of or otherwise seeks a vote or consent of its stockholders for the purpose of approving the
Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, including the
Merger, such Stockholder will vote, or provide a consent with respect to, all Company Common
Stock (including the Owned Shares) which, as of the relevant record date, such Stockholder
has the power to vote, in favor of approving the Merger Agreement and the transactions
contemplated by such Agreement, including the Merger, and
2
(b) such Stockholder will (at any meeting of stockholders or in connection with any
consent solicitation) vote all shares of Company Common Stock (including the Owned Shares)
which, as of the relevant record date, such Stockholder has the power to vote, against, and
will not consent to, any Acquisition Proposal with a Person other than Purchaser or any
action that would or is designed to delay, prevent or frustrate the Proposed Business
Combination. Without limiting the foregoing, it is understood that the obligations under
clause (a) in this shall remain applicable in respect of each meeting of stockholders of the
Company duly called for the purpose of approving the Merger Agreement and the transactions
contemplated thereby, including the Merger, regardless of the position of the Company’s
board of directors as to the Proposed Business Combination at the time of such meeting.
Section 4. Limitation of Stockholder Agreements as to Owned Shares Beneficially
Owned with Others to a “Best Efforts” Undertaking. The Purchaser acknowledges that no
Stockholder represents or warrants that he or she has legal authority to compel any third person to
take (or to omit from taking) any action in respect of any of that Stockholder’s Owned Shares. As
to Owned Shares over which any third parties (such as spouses or other family members, or officers
or directors of business entities that may have an interest) may share with any Stockholder voting
power and investment power (as determined pursuant to Rule 13d-3(a) under the Exchange Act), any
agreement of the Stockholder included in this Agreement as to such Owned Shares shall be limited to
an agreement that such Stockholder shall use Stockholder’s best efforts to cause compliance with
such agreements of such Stockholder with respect to such Owned Shares.
Section 5. Additional Stock. Each Stockholder agrees that any additional
shares of Company Common Stock or securities convertible into Company Common Stock acquired by such
Stockholder or over which he or she acquires Beneficial Ownership or voting power or dispositive
power, whether pursuant to existing stock option agreements, warrants or otherwise, shall be
subject to the provisions of this Agreement.
Section 6. Termination. This Agreement, and all rights and obligations of the
parties hereunder (other than those set forth in shall terminate upon the earlier of: (i) the
Effective Time of the Merger, or (ii) the date upon which the Merger Agreement is terminated
pursuant to Article VII thereof without the Merger having been consummated.
Section 7. Stockholder Capacity. No Stockholder executing this Agreement who
is or becomes during the term hereof a director or officer of the Company makes any agreement or
understanding herein in his or her capacity as such a director or officer, and this Agreement does
not bind any a Stockholder in such person’s capacity as a director of officer. Each Stockholder
executing this Agreement does so solely in such Stockholder’s capacity as the owner of record
and/or Beneficial Owner of the Owned Shares or as having the power to vote or dispose of the Owned
Shares and nothing herein shall limit or affect any actions taken or omitted to be taken by a
Stockholder, in his or her capacity as an officer or director of the Company (including, for the
avoidance of doubt, any action in the discharge of fiduciary duties in compliance with Section 4.12
of the Merger Agreement); provided, that nothing in this shall be deemed to permit any Stockholder
to take any action on behalf of the Company that is prohibited by the Merger Agreement.
