and deliver, enter into, and to perform its obligations under, this Amendment and each of the
Promissory Notes contemplated hereby, except for such consent, approval, order or authorization of,
or registration, declaration or filing with, any court, administrative agency, commission or other
Governmental Authority or any other Person or entity, governmental or otherwise, if any, that if
not made or obtained by Acquirer or Sub would not be material to Acquirer’s or Sub’s ability to
consummate the Merger or to perform their respective obligations under this Agreement.
(d) This Amendment and the Promissory Notes contemplated hereby are, or when executed by
Acquirer, the Company Entities, as applicable, and each of the other parties hereto and thereto

affecting the rights of creditors generally and (b) rules of law and equity governing specific
performance, injunctive relief and other equitable remedies.

Material Adverse Change on Acquirer, conflict with or violate any Applicable Law.
(f) Immediately after the issuance of the Promissory Notes, (a) the fair value of the assets
of Acquirer, at a fair valuation, will exceed its debts and liabilities, subordinated, contingent
or otherwise; (b) the present fair saleable value of the property of Acquirer will be greater than

amount of Indebtedness that may be outstanding thereunder to an amount that exceeds $10,000,000,
(B) accelerate the dates on which payments of principal or interest are due, or (C) change any

indirectly guaranteed, endorsed, co-made, discounted or sold with recourse by that Person, or for
which that Person is directly or indirectly liable; and (b) any obligations for undrawn letters of
credit for the account of that Person; but “Contingent Obligation” does not include endorsements in
the ordinary course of business. The amount of a Contingent Obligation is the stated or determined
amount of the primary obligation for which the Contingent Obligation is made or, if not
determinable, the maximum reasonably anticipated liability for it determined by the Person in good
faith; but the amount may not exceed the maximum of the obligations under any guarantee or other
support arrangement.
12. Except as specifically modified hereby, all terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement
shall remain unmodified and in full force and effect. This Amendment shall be deemed to form an
integral part of the Merger Agreement. In the event of any inconsistency or conflict between the
provisions of the Merger Agreement and this Amendment, the provisions of this Amendment will
prevail and govern. All references to the “Agreement” in the Merger Agreement shall hereinafter
refer to the Merger Agreement as amended by this Amendment. The Company Shareholders shall be
intended third-party beneficiaries of this Agreement.
