AGREEMENT
This Amended and Restated Warrant Clarification Agreement (this “Agreement”), dated as of
January 17,2007, is between Coconut Palm Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation, with offices
at 000 Xxxxx Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxx, Xxxxx 000, Xxxx Xxxxx, Xxxxxxx, 00000 (the “Company”) and
Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, a New York corporation, with offices at 00 Xxxxxxx
Xxxxx, Xxx Xxxx, Xxx Xxxx 00000 (the “Warrant Agent”).
WHEREAS, the Company and Warrant Agent are parties to that certain Warrant Agreement, dated
as of September 8, 2005 (the “Warrant Agreement”) providing for the issuance of Warrants (as such
term is defined therein);
WHEREAS, as a result of certain questions that arose arisen regarding the accounting
treatment applicable to the Warrants, the parties pursuant to a Warrant Clarification Agreement
dated August 17, 2006 (the “Warrant Clarification Agreement”) deemed it necessary and desirable to
amend the Warrant Agreement to clarify that the registered holders do not have the right, and did
not have the right when the parties initially entered into the Warrant Agreement, to receive a net
cash settlement in the event the Company does not maintain a current prospectus relating to the
Common Stock of the Company issuable upon exercise of the Warrants at the time such Warrants are
exercisable; and
WHEREAS, the parties deem it necessary and desirable to amend and restate the Warrant
Clarification Agreement to make clear that the reference to the “effective registration” should
have been to a “current prospectus”.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual agreements contained herein and other good and
valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, and
intending to be legally bound hereby, the parties hereto agree to amend the Warrant Agreement as
set forth herein.
1. Warrant Agreement. The undersigned hereby agree that the Warrant
Agreement is hereby amended by adding the following last sentence to Section 3.3.2:
“In no event will the registered holder of a Warrant be entitled to receive a net cash
settlement or any other consideration in lieu of physical settlement in shares of Common Stock, and
therefore such Warrants may expire unexercised and without value, if the Common Stock underlying
the Warrants is not covered by a current prospectus.”
