(b)   From and after the Company’s 2007 annual shareholders meeting, so long as the Investor beneficially owns fifteen percent (15%) or more of the Common Stock outstanding, the parties hereto shall use all reasonable efforts under applicable Law and Exchange Regulations to cause there to be one Investor Designated Director elected as a member of the Board.  In the event the Investor beneficially owns less than fifteen percent (15%) of the Common Stock outstanding, the Investor shall have no right to designate an Investor Designated Director, and, at the request of the Board, shall cause any Investor Designated Director then in office to resign immediately upon such event; provided, however, that if the Stockholder Approval has not been obtained by the date that is four (4) months from the date hereof, regardless of the Investor’s beneficial ownership of Common Stock, the parties hereto shall use all reasonable efforts under applicable Law and Exchange Regulations (i) to cause there to be one Investor Designated Director elected as a member of the Board as soon as reasonably practicable after such four (4) month period and (ii) to cause the Board to include one Investor Designated Director for a period of at least two (2) years from the date hereof.

SECTION 2.03       Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws to Be Consistent.  The Board shall take or cause to be taken all lawful action necessary or appropriate to ensure that none of the Certificate of Incorporation or the Bylaws contain any provisions inconsistent with this Agreement or which would in any way nullify or impair the terms of this Agreement or the rights of the Company or of the Investor hereunder.

SECTION 4.03       Rights to Purchase New Securities or Exercise Warrants.

(a)  In the event that the Company proposes to issue New Securities, the Investor shall have the right (i) to purchase in lieu of the person to whom the Company proposed to issue such New Securities, in accordance with paragraph (b) below, or, (ii) at its option, to exercise Warrants to purchase, a number of New Securities equal to the product of (A) the total number or amount of New Securities which the Company proposes to issue at such time and (B) a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the total number of shares of Common Stock which the Investor owns at such time, and the denominator of which shall be the total number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding.

(b)   In the event that the Company proposes to undertake an issuance of New Securities, it shall give written notice (a “Notice of Issuance”) of its intention to the Investor, describing the material terms of the New Securities, including the price thereof, and the material terms upon which the Company proposes to issue such New Securities.  The Investor shall have thirty (30) days from the date of receipt of the Notice of Issuance (i) to agree to purchase all or a portion of the Investor’s pro rata share of such New Securities (as determined pursuant to paragraph (a) above) for the same consideration, if such proposed consideration shall consist solely of cash, or, if such consideration consists of property or assets other than cash, for cash, Cash Equivalents or Marketable Securities having an equivalent value (as reasonably determined by the Board) to the consideration payable by the person to whom the Company proposes to issue such New Securities at the time of payment, and otherwise upon the terms specified in the Notice of Issuance by giving written notice to the Company and stating therein the quantity of New Securities to be purchased by the Investor or (ii) to exercise Warrants to purchase a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock so that the Investor beneficially owns the same percentage of the outstanding Common Stock immediately after such issuance of New Securities as it did immediately before such issuance of New Securities.  The rights given by the Company under this Section 4.03(b) shall terminate if unexercised within thirty (30) days after receipt of the Notice of Issuance referred to in this Section 4.03(b).

(c)   The Company and the Investor, if it elects to purchase the New Securities to be sold by the Company, shall select a date not later than twenty (20) days (or longer if required by Law) after the expiration of the (thirty) 30-day notice period referenced in Section 4.03(b) for the closing of the purchase and sale of the New Securities.  In the event any purchase by the Investor is not consummated, other than as a result of the fault of the Company, within the provided time period, the Company may issue the New Securities subject to purchase by the Investor free and clear from the restrictions under this Section 4.03.  Any New Securities not elected to be purchased by the Investor may be sold by the Company to the person to which the Company intended to sell such New Securities on terms and conditions no less favorable to the Company than those offered to the Investor.

SECTION 4.04       Termination of Standstill Provisions.  The provisions of Sections 4.01 and 4.02 of this Agreement shall terminate without any further action by any party upon the earlier of:

10

(i)            the second (2nd) anniversary of the receipt of the Stockholder Approval;

(ii)           such date as the Board determines to solicit, or publicly announces, whether by press release, filing with the SEC or otherwise, its intention to solicit, an Acquisition Proposal;

(iii)          such date as the Board publicly approves, accepts, authorizes or recommends to the Company’s stockholders their approval of, or their conveyance of any Common Stock or other securities pursuant to, any Acquisition Proposal;

(iv)          such date that the Company or any affiliate thereof has entered into a letter of intent, agreement in principle, definitive agreement or any other agreement with any party, with respect to an Acquisition Proposal for the Company; and

(v)           such date that any person or group, other than the Investor or any of its affiliates, shall have acquired or announced its intention to acquire, including by commencement of a tender offer or exchange offer, beneficial ownership of twenty percent (20%) of the Company’s outstanding Common Stock.

SECTION 4.05       Restriction on Exercise of Warrants by the Investor.  The Investor understands and agrees that, subject to the provisions of Section 4.03, from the date it first acquires Warrants pursuant to the transactions contemplated by the Securities Purchase Agreement until the date that is two (2) years from the receipt of the Shareholder Approval, (a) the Warrants acquired by the Investor pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement can be exercised by the Investor only to maintain its percentage ownership of the Company’s Common Stock (i) existing immediately after the First Closing (as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement), in the case of the Initial Warrants, and (ii) existing immediately after the Second Closing (as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement), in the case of the Option Warrants; and (b) the Company and any transfer agent of its Warrants will not be required to honor or record any exercise of the Warrants beneficially owned by the Investor other than in accordance with the provisions of this Section 4.05.  The Investor consents to the Company making a notation on its records and giving instructions to any transfer agent of its Warrants in order to implement the restrictions on exercise established in this Section 4.05.

SECTION 4.06       Quarterly Exercise of Warrants by the Investor.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if, at any time and from time to time, the Company issues shares of Common Stock that are not New Securities (an “Ordinary Dilutive Issuance”), the Company will give notice (in accordance with Section 9.02) of any such issuance to the Investor (a “Quarterly Anti-Dilution Notice”) not later than five (5) days after the last day of the calendar quarter in which the Ordinary Dilutive Issuance occurred.  The Quarterly Anti-Dilution Notice will describe the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock issued in all Quarterly Dilutive Issuances that occurred during the calendar quarter then ended.  Upon its receipt of a Quarterly Anti-Dilution Notice, the Investor shall have the right, for a period of thirty (30) days, to exercise such number of Warrants beneficially owned by the Investor as is necessary so that the percentage of outstanding

11

Common Stock that the Investor owns immediately after the exercise of such Warrants is the same as the percentage of outstanding Common Stock that the Investor owned at the beginning of the calendar quarter to which the Quarterly Anti-Dilution Notice relates.

(b)   After the Initial Restricted Period (other than with respect to clauses (iv), (vi) and (vii) below which may occur at any time), the Investor agrees that neither it nor any of its affiliates will make any Sale of any of the Covered Securities except for a Sale or transfer:

(i)            in compliance with Rule 144 under the Securities Act;

(ii) (x) pursuant to a bona fide public offering registered under the Securities Act, or

(y) in one or more block trades or privately negotiated transactions exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act;

(iii)          to one or more Permitted Transferees in accordance with Section 5.01(c);

(iv)          (x) pursuant to any business combination, tender or exchange offer to acquire Common Stock or other extraordinary transaction that the Board has recommended or (y) pursuant to a tender or exchange offer that the Board has not recommended but only after such time as a majority of the shares of Common Stock outstanding (other than those owned by the Investor) have been tendered into such offer and after all material conditions with respect to such offer (including any financing condition, any minimum condition with respect to number of shares tendered and any condition with respect to removal of any anti-takeover protections) have been satisfied or irrevocably waived by the offeror;

(v)           to the Company or a subsidiary of the Company;

12

(vi)          swaps, exchanges, xxxxxx or other similar agreements or arrangements designed to protect against fluctuations in the value of the equity securities of the Company and not entered into with the purpose of circumventing the provisions of this Section 5.01; or

(vii)         pledges of Covered Securities in connection with any margin loan or other extensions of credit from a broker-dealer, bank or other financial institution and not entered into with the purpose of circumventing the provisions of this Section 5.01.

(c)   No Sale of Covered Securities to a Permitted Transferee shall be effective until such time as such Permitted Transferee has executed and delivered to the Company, as a condition precedent to such Sale, an instrument or instruments, reasonably acceptable to the Company, confirming that such Permitted Transferee agrees to be bound by all obligations of the Investor hereunder.

SECTION 5.02       Improper Sale.  Any attempt not in compliance with this Agreement to make any Sale of any Covered Securities shall be null and void and of no force and effect, the purported transferee shall have no rights or privileges in or with respect to the Company, and the Company shall not give any effect in the Company’s stock records to such attempted Sale.

SECTION 5.03       Restrictive Legends.

(a)  Each certificate evidencing the Covered Securities shall be stamped or otherwise imprinted with legends in substantially the following form (in addition to any legends required by agreement or by applicable state securities Laws):

(i) THE SECURITIES EVIDENCED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, AND HAVE BEEN ACQUIRED FOR INVESTMENT AND NOT WITH A VIEW TO, OR IN CONNECTION WITH, THE SALE OR DISTRIBUTION THEREOF.  SUCH SECURITIES GENERALLY MAY NOT BE SOLD OR TRANSFERRED IN THE ABSENCE OF SUCH REGISTRATION OR PURSUANT TO AN APPLICABLE EXEMPTION FROM THE REGISTRATION AND PROSPECTUS DELIVERY REQUIREMENTS OF SAID ACT.

(ii) THE SECURITIES EVIDENCED HEREBY ARE SUBJECT TO CERTAIN RESTRICTIONS UNDER THE TERMS OF THE STOCKHOLDERS’ AGREEMENT DATED MARCH 13, 2007, AS AMENDED FROM TIME TO TIME, BETWEEN THE ISSUER AND THE HOLDER HEREOF AND MAY NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD, TRANSFERRED OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF EXCEPT IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE TERMS OF THAT AGREEMENT.

(b)   Each certificate evidencing any shares of Common Stock or other securities of the Company acquired by the Investor other than the Covered Securities shall

13

be stamped or otherwise imprinted with legends in substantially the following form (in addition to any legends required by agreement or by applicable state securities Laws):

THE SECURITIES EVIDENCED HEREBY ARE SUBJECT TO CERTAIN RESTRICTIONS UNDER THE TERMS OF THE STOCKHOLDERS’ AGREEMENT DATED MARCH 13, 2007, AS AMENDED FROM TIME TO TIME, BETWEEN THE ISSUER AND THE HOLDER HEREOF AND MAY NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD, TRANSFERRED OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF EXCEPT IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE TERMS OF THAT AGREEMENT.

(c)   The Investor consents to the Company making a notation on its records and giving instructions to any transfer agent of its capital stock in order to implement the restrictions on transfer established in this Agreement.

(d)   The Company shall, at the request of a holder of Purchased Securities, remove from each certificate evidencing Purchased Securities transferred in compliance with the terms of Section 5.01 and with respect to which no rights or obligations under this Agreement shall transfer, the legend described in Sections 5.03(a)(ii) and 5.03(b), and shall remove from each certificate evidencing such Purchased Securities the legend described in Section 5.03(a)(i) if, at the request of the Company, such requesting holder provides, at its expense, an opinion of counsel satisfactory to the Company that the securities evidenced thereby may be transferred without the imposition of such legend.

SECTION 9.06       Waiver of Jury Trial.  Each of the parties hereto hereby waives to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law any right it may have to a trial by jury with respect to any litigation directly or indirectly arising out of, under or in connection with this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby.  Each of the parties hereto (a) certifies that no representative, agent or attorney of the other party has represented, expressly or otherwise, that such other party would not, in the event of litigation, seek to enforce that foregoing waiver and (b) acknowledges that it and the other party hereto have been induced to enter into this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, as applicable, by, among other things, the mutual waivers and certifications in this Section 9.06.
