Section 5.12 Specific Performance and other Equitable Rights

Each of the Parties recognizes and acknowledges that this Agreement is an integral part of the transactions contemplated in the Arrangement Agreement and that the Purchaser would not enter into the Arrangement Agreement unless this Agreement was executed, and accordingly

- 22 -

acknowledges and agrees that a breach by the Shareholder of any covenants or other commitments contained in this Agreement will cause the Purchaser to sustain injury for which it would not have an adequate remedy at law for money damages. Therefore, the Shareholder agrees that in the event of any such breach, the Purchaser shall be entitled to the remedy of specific performance of such covenants or commitments and preliminary and permanent injunctive and other equitable relief in addition to any other remedy to which it may be entitled, at Law or in equity, and the Shareholder further agrees to waive any requirement for the securing or posting of any bond in connection with the obtaining of any such injunctive or other equitable relief.

Section 5.14 Independent Legal Advice

The Shareholder acknowledges that the Shareholder has entered into this Agreement willingly with full knowledge of the obligations imposed by the terms of this Agreement. The Shareholder further acknowledges that the Shareholder has been afforded the opportunity to obtain independent legal advice and confirms by the execution of this Agreement that the Shareholder has either done so or waived the Shareholder’s right to do so, and agrees that this Agreement constitutes a binding legal obligation and that the Shareholder is estopped from raising any claim on the basis that it has not obtained such advice.

Section 5.15 Counterparts

This Agreement may be executed by the Parties in counterparts and may be executed and delivered by facsimile and all such counterparts and facsimiles shall together constitute one and the same agreement.

If any term, provision, covenant or restriction of this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, void or unenforceable, the remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the Parties hereto shall negotiate in

Associates LLC and Alpha Omega Group, Inc. and the person in control of Lancer Partners, L.P.1		18,718,0082

1		On October 22, 2008, the Receiver, as responsible person for Lancer Partners, along with the Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors of Lancer Partners and the Official Committee of Equity Security Holders of Lancer Partners, filed their First Amended Joint Plan of Liquidation of Lancer Partners (the “Bankruptcy Plan”) in the Chapter 11 bankruptcy case styled In re: Lancer Partners, L.P., Debtor, Case No. 06-11721-BKC-JKO. In December 2008, the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Florida entered an Order approving the Bankruptcy Plan.
		The Bankruptcy Plan provides that the assets of Lancer Partners will be transferred to a liquidating trust (the “Partners Trust”) for purposes of their administration by a liquidating trustee, Xxxxxx X. XxXxxx, Xx. (the “Partners Trustee”). The Bankruptcy Plan also provides that, subject to approval by the District Court, the assets of LMG II and LSPV-LLC will be transferred to the Partners Trust for administration by the Partners Trustee. On December 15, 2008, the District Court issued an Amended Order Granting the Receiver’s Motion to Transfer Assets of LMG II and LSPV-LLC to the Bankruptcy Estate of Lancer Partners. Pursuant to the Bankruptcy Plan and Partners Trust, the Reporting Entities expect to transfer to the Partners Trust a total of 3,495,944 shares (the “Trustee Shares”) of the Common Stock of the Issuer.
		Pursuant to the Bankruptcy Plan, the sole purpose of the Partners Trustee is to liquidate the assets of Lancer Partners, LMG II and LSPV-LLC (collectively, the “Partners Trust Assets”) in favor of parties holding claims (as defined in Section 101(5) of the Bankruptcy Code) against Lancer Partners who are entitled to receive a distribution under the Partners Trust pursuant to the Bankruptcy Plan and the Partners Trust Agreement.
2		Such number includes the Trustee Shares which are expected to be transferred to the Liquidating Trustee.
