case shall the Additional Closing take place unless and until all of the
conditions listed in Section 3 of this letter and the Additional Purchase
Agreements shall have been satisfied by the Company or waived by the Purchasers.
The date of the Additional Closing is hereinafter referred to as the "Additional
Closing Date." Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this
letter. Purchaser may designate an Affiliate thereof to acquire all or any
portion of the Additional Shares.
(ii) At the Additional Closing, the parties shall deliver or
