to enter into the Merger Agreement and as an inducement and in consideration
therefor, the Stockholders have agreed to enter into this Agreement.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the mutual
covenants and agreements set forth herein and in the Merger Agreement, and
intending to be legally bound hereby, the parties hereto agree as follows:
Section 1. Representations and Warranties of the Stockholders. Each
Stockholder hereby represents and warrants to Parent, severally and not
jointly, as set forth below:
(a) Such Stockholder is the record and beneficial owner (as defined
in Rule 13d-3 under the Act) of the shares of Common Stock and/or Series B
Preferred Stock set forth opposite his or its name on Schedule 1 to this
Agreement (such
shares of Common Stock and/or Series B Preferred Stock, together with any Common
Stock and Series B Preferred Stock acquired by the Stockholder after the date of
this Agreement, whether Shares acquired by way of exercise of Company Options,
Company Warrants or other rights to purchase Common Stock or Series B Preferred
Stock or by way of dividend, distribution, exchange, merger, consolidation,
grant of proxy or otherwise, but excluding shares owned by other Stockholders,
all as may be adjusted from time to time pursuant to Section 6 hereof, the
"SHARES"). Schedule 1 to this Agreement lists separately all Company Options and
Company Warrants issued to such Stockholder. Such Stockholder is the record and
beneficial owner of the Company Options and Company Warrants set forth opposite
such Stockholder's name on Schedule 1 to this Agreement.
(b) Such Stockholder has voting power, power of disposition, power
of conversion (in respect of the Series B Preferred Stock) and power to agree to
all of the matters regarding such Stockholder set forth in this Agreement, in
each case with respect to all of the Shares, with no limitations, qualifications
or restrictions on such right. Such Stockholder is not the record or beneficial
owner of any securities of the Company on the date hereof other than the Shares
and the Company Options and Company Warrants set forth on Schedule 1.
(c) Such Stockholder has the legal capacity to execute and deliver
this Agreement and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby regarding
such Stockholder.
(d) This Agreement has been validly executed and delivered by such
Stockholder and, assuming due and valid authorization, execution and delivery
thereof by Parent and Purchaser, constitutes the legal, valid and binding
obligation of such Stockholder, enforceable against such Stockholder in
accordance with its terms, except (i) as limited by applicable bankruptcy,
insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and other laws of general application
affecting enforcement of creditors' rights generally, and (ii) the availability
of the remedy of specific performance or injunctive or other forms of equitable
relief may be subject to equitable defenses and would be subject to the
discretion of the court before which any proceeding therefor may be brought.
(e) Neither the execution and delivery of this Agreement nor the
consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby will result in a violation
of, or constitute (with or without due notice or lapse of time or both) a
default under, or conflict with, or give rise to any right of termination,
cancellation or acceleration under any contract, trust, note, bond, mortgage,
indenture, license, agreement, or material contractual restriction or obligation
of any kind to which such Stockholder is a party or by which such Stockholder or
his or its Shares are bound, which singularly or in the aggregate, would prevent
or adversely effect the ability of such Stockholder to perform his or its
obligations under this Agreement. The consummation of the transactions
contemplated hereby will not violate, or require any consent, approval or notice
(except those required under applicable securities laws) under, any provision of
any judgment, order, injunction, decree, statute, law, rule or regulation
applicable to such Stockholder
2
which, singularly or in the aggregate, would prevent or adversely effect the
ability of such Stockholder to perform his or its obligations under this
Agreement.
(f) In the case of any Stockholder that is a corporation, limited
partnership or limited liability company, such Stockholder is an entity duly
organized and validly existing under the laws of the jurisdiction in which it is
incorporated or constituted, and each such Stockholder has all requisite power
and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement and to consummate the
transactions contemplated hereby regarding such Stockholder, and has taken all
necessary corporate action to authorize the execution, delivery and performance
of this Agreement.
(g) The Shares owned by such Stockholder are now, and at all times
during the term hereof will be, held by such Stockholder or by a nominee or
custodian for the benefit of such Stockholder, free and clear of all liens,
claims, security interests, proxies, voting trusts, agreements, options, rights,
understandings or arrangements or any other encumbrances whatsoever on title,
transfer or exercise of any rights of a Stockholder in respect of such Shares
(collectively, "ENCUMBRANCES"), except for any such Encumbrances arising
hereunder, and the transfer of the Shares held by such Stockholders hereunder
will effectively vest in Purchaser valid and marketable title to such Shares,
free and clear of any Encumbrances.
(h) Each Stockholder whose Shares are subject to community property
interests under the laws of any relevant jurisdiction has agreed to have
executed and delivered to Parent such consents, waivers and approvals as are
necessary for the execution of this Agreement and the approval and consummation
of the transactions contemplated hereby regarding such Stockholder.
(i) Such Stockholder understands and acknowledges that Parent and
Purchaser are entering into the Merger Agreement in reliance upon such
Stockholder's execution and delivery of this Agreement.
Section 2. Representations and Warranties of Parent and Purchaser. Each of
Parent and Purchaser hereby represents and warrants to the Stockholders, jointly
and severally, as follows:
(a) Each of Parent and Purchaser is a corporation duly organized and
validly existing under the laws of the State of Delaware, has all requisite
corporate power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement and to
consummate the transactions contemplated hereby and has taken all necessary
corporate action to authorize the execution, delivery and performance of this
Agreement.
(b) This Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered
by each of Parent and Purchaser and, assuming due and valid authorization,
execution and delivery thereof by a Stockholder, constitutes the legal, valid
and binding obligation of each of Parent and Purchaser, enforceable by such
Stockholder against each of them in accordance with its terms, except (i) as
limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and
other laws of general application affecting
3
enforcement of creditors' rights generally and (ii) the availability of the
remedy of specific performance or injunctive or other forms of equitable relief
may be subject to equitable defenses and would be subject to the discretion of
the court before which any proceeding therefor may be brought.
(c) Neither the execution and delivery of this Agreement nor the
consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby will result in a violation
of, or constitute (with or without due notice or lapse of time or both) a
default under, or conflict with, or give rise to any right of termination,
cancellation or acceleration under any material contract, trust, note, bond,
mortgage, indenture, license, agreement or contractual restriction or obligation
of any kind to which Parent and Purchaser is a party which, singularly or in the
aggregate, would prevent or adversely effect the ability of Parent and Purchaser
to perform its obligations under this Agreement. The consummation of the
transactions contemplated hereby will not violate, or require any consent,
approval or notice (except those required under applicable securities laws)
under, any provision of any judgment, order, injunction, decree, statute, law,
rule or regulation applicable to Parent and Purchaser which, singularly or in
the aggregate, would prevent or materially adversely effect the ability of
Parent and Purchaser to perform its obligations under this Agreement.
Section 3. Tender of the Shares. Each Stockholder hereby agrees that,
subject to the terms and conditions of Section 8 hereof, (a) such Stockholder
shall validly tender, or cause to be validly tendered, pursuant to and in
accordance with the terms of the Offer, his or its Shares into the Offer as
promptly as practicable, and in any event no later than the fifth business day,
following the commencement of the Offer pursuant to Section 1.1 of the Merger
Agreement (except for those Shares issued upon the exercise of Company Options,
Company Warrants or other rights to acquire shares of Common Stock or Series B
Preferred Stock after such date, which shall be validly tendered, or caused to
be validly tendered, as promptly as practicable following such exercise) and
receipt of the applicable tender offer documentation and (b) such Stockholder
shall not withdraw any Shares so tendered unless this Agreement is terminated or
the Offer is terminated or has expired without Purchaser purchasing all Shares
validly tendered in the Offer and not withdrawn. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
each Stockholder may decline to tender, or may withdraw, any and all of such
Stockholders' Shares if, without the consent of such Stockholder, Purchaser
amends the Offer to (i) reduce the Offer Price, (ii) reduce the number of Shares
subject to the Offer, (iii) change the form of consideration payable in the
Offer or (iv) amend or modify any term or condition of the Offer in a manner
adverse to the stockholders of the Company (other than insignificant changes or
amendments or other than to waive any condition other than the Minimum
Condition). Each Stockholder shall give Purchaser at least two (2) business
days' prior notice of any withdrawal of its Shares pursuant to the immediately
preceding proviso. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the holders
of the Series B Preferred Stock shall retain the option and right to instruct
the tender agent to take all steps necessary to convert their shares into Common
Stock at any time prior to the Purchase of such shares in the Offer.
Section 4. Transfer of the Shares.
4
(a) Prior to the termination of this Agreement and except as
otherwise provided herein, each of the Stockholders agrees that it shall not:
(i) transfer, assign, sell, gift-over, pledge, hypothecate, encumber or

all of the Shares, Company Options, Company Warrants or other rights to acquire
Common Stock or Series B Preferred Stock or any right or interest therein; (ii)
enter into any contract, option or other agreement, arrangement or understanding
with respect to any Transfer; (iii) grant any proxy, power-of-attorney or other
authorization or consent with respect to any of the Shares; (iv) deposit any of
the Shares into a voting trust, or enter into a voting agreement or arrangement

way restrict, limit or interfere with the performance of such Stockholder's

representation or warranty of such Stockholder untrue or incorrect.
(b) Each Stockholder agrees, promptly following request of Parent,
to surrender to the Company, or to the transfer agent for the Company,
certificates evidencing the Shares, and shall cause the Company or the transfer
agent for the Company to place the following legend on any and all certificates

Company's Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws or other proposal, action or
transaction involving the Company or any of its subsidiaries or any of its
stockholders, which amendment or other proposal, action or

of Section 212 of the DGCL. Each Stockholder hereby agrees that, if for any
