(including by way of tender offer), or any other transaction or proceeding
with a person who is not a Promoter (as defined in the NASAA Statement of
Policy on Corporate Securities Definitions), which results in the
distribution of the Issuer's assets or securities ("Distribution"), while
this Agreement remains in effect that:
1. All holders of the Issuer's Equity Securities, except the Security
Holders to the extent of the Restricted Securities, will initially
share on a per share basis in the Distribution until such shareholders
have received, or have had irrevocably set aside for them, an amount
that is equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the public offering's
price per share times the number of shares of Equity Securities which
they hold at the time of the Distribution, adjusted for stock splits,
stock dividends, recapitalizations and the like;
2. The Security Holders shall thereafter share among themselves on a per
share basis in the Distribution, until they have received, or have had
irrevocably set aside for them, an amount that is equal to one hundred
percent (100%) of the public offering's price per share times the
number of shares of Restricted Securities which they hold at the time
of the Distribution, adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends,
recapitalizations and the like;
3. All holders of the Issuer's Equity Securities shall thereafter

for stock splits, stock dividends, recapitalizations and the like; and
4. The Distribution may proceed on lesser terms and conditions than the
terms and conditions stated in paragraphs 1, 2 and 3 above if a
majority of the Equity Securities that are not held by Security
Holders, officers, directors or Promoters of the Issuer or their
associates or affiliates vote, or consent by consent procedure, to
approve the lesser terms and conditions.
B. In the event of a dissolution, liquidation, merger, consolidation,
reorganization, sale or exchange of the Issuer's assets or securities
(including by way of tender offer), or any other transaction or proceeding
with a person who is a Promoter, which results in a Distribution while

distribution, the operation of law, or by order of any court of competent
jurisdiction and proper venue.

the Agreement; provided, however, that the Security Holders hereby agree
that during the term of this Agreement, they will not vote any of their
Equity Securities in favor of a transaction described in paragraph A
above, unless such transaction shall have been approved by a majority of
the Issuer's Independent Directors (as defined in the NASAA Statement of
Policy on Corporate Securities Definitions).
