Shares against (x) any merger agreement or merger,
consolidation, combination, sale of substantial assets, reorganization or
recapitalization of or by HOVRS or any of its subsidiaries (except in connection
with the Merger), or (y) any amendment of HOVRS's certificate of incorporation
or bylaws or other proposal or transaction involving HOVRS or any of its

impeding, frustrating, preventing or nullifying the Merger Agreement, the Merger
or any of the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement.

6. Entire Agreement. This Agreement supersedes all prior agreements
between the parties with respect to its subject matter and constitutes a
complete and exclusive statement of the terms of the agreement between the
parties with respect to its subject matter.
7. No Other Rights. Nothing in this Agreement shall be considered to give
any person other than the parties any legal or equitable right, claim or remedy
under or in respect of this Agreement or any provision of this Agreement. This
Agreement and all of its provisions are for the sole and exclusive benefit of
the parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns.
8. Equitable Relief. Each of the parties hereto acknowledges that a breach
by it of any provision contained in this Agreement will cause the other parties
to sustain damage for
-3-
which they would not have an adequate remedy at law for money damages, and
therefore each of the parties hereto agrees that in the event of any such
breach, the aggrieved party shall be entitled to the remedy of specific
performance of such agreement and injunctive and other equitable relief in
addition to any other remedy to which it may be entitled, at law or in equity.
9. Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is held invalid or
unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, the other provisions of this
Agreement shall remain in full force and effect. Any provision of this Agreement
which is held invalid or unenforceable only in part shall remain in full force
and effect to the extent not held invalid or unenforceable.
10. Headings. All references in this Agreement to "paragraph" or
"paragraphs" refer to the corresponding numbered paragraph or paragraphs of this
Agreement. All words used in this Agreement shall be construed to be of the
appropriate gender or number as the context requires. Unless otherwise expressly
provided, the word "including" does not limit the preceding words or terms.
11. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more
counterparts, each of which shall be considered an original copy of this
Agreement and all of which, when taken together, shall be considered to
constitute one and the same agreement.
12. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware without regard to that state's
conflicts of laws principles.
13. Amendments; Waivers. Any amendment or modification of or to any
provision of this Agreement, and any consent to any departure of any party from
the terms of any provision of this Agreement, shall be effective only if it is
made or given in writing and signed by each party. Notwithstanding the foregoing
sentence, any failure of any of the parties to comply with any obligation,
covenant, agreement or condition herein may be waived by any party entitled to
the benefits thereof only by a written instrument signed by such party granting
such waiver, but such waiver or failure to insist upon strict compliance with
such obligation, covenant, agreement or condition shall not operate as a waiver
of, or estoppel with respect to, any subsequent or other failure. The failure of
any party to assert any of its rights under this Agreement or otherwise shall
not constitute a waiver of those rights.
14. Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall apply to, be binding in
all respects upon and inure to the benefit of the parties and their respective
successors and permitted assigns. No party may assign any of its rights under
this Agreement without the prior written consent of each of the other parties.
