TERMS
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the following mutual promises, the
parties agree as follows:
1. Issuance of Shares. The Company confirms its offer to issue
------------------
30,000 shares of Class B common stock (the "Class B Shares") to Shareholder at a
price of $.833 per share, payable in full upon issuance of the Class B Shares.
A stock certificate evidencing the Class B Shares shall be issued in the name of
Shareholder upon receipt of this executed Amendment and payment in full of the
purchase price.
2. Incorporation of Agreement by Reference. All of the provisions
---------------------------------------
of the Agreement shall apply to the Class B Shares issued to Shareholder
pursuant to this Amendment, except to the extent that a provision of this
Amendment expressly supersedes any provision of the Agreement. Additionally, to
the extent that any provision of this Amendment contradicts any provision
contained in the Agreement with respect to the Shares (as defined in the
Agreement), the provision of this Amendment shall control.
3. Repurchase Price. The Purchase Option of the Company, described
----------------
in Section 3 of the Agreement, shall apply to the Class B Shares. In the event
that the Company exercises its Purchase Option with respect to all or a portion
of the Class B Shares, however, the price for all Class B Shares repurchased by
the Company pursuant to the Purchase Option, described in Section 4 of the
Agreement, shall be the fair market value of the Class B Shares as of the date
of the exercise of the Purchase Option by the Company. "Fair market value"
shall be determined by the accounting firm then retained by the Company, which
shall promptly perform an appraisal. The determination shall be made in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and shall be binding on
all parties.
4. Stockholders' Agreement and Proxy. Concurrently with the
---------------------------------
execution of this Amendment and the issuance of the Class B Shares, Shareholder
is executing and delivering a Stockholders' Agreement and proxy appointing
Xxxxxx X. Xxxxxxxx Shareholder's attorney-in-fact and proxy to vote all Class B
Shares now or hereafter owned by Shareholder at any meeting of shareholders,
regular or special, whenever called, and for whatever purpose. Copies of the
Stockholders' Agreement and proxy shall be filed with the Secretary of the
Company, and the proxy shall be registered in the stock books of the Company.
Any transfer of the Class B Shares is subject to the terms of the Stockholders'
Agreement and proxy.
5. Permitted Transfer of Shares and Class B Shares. The
-----------------------------------------------
restrictions on transfer of Shareholder's Shares (as defined in the Agreement),
set forth in Section 2 of the Agreement, shall apply equally to the Class B
Shares; provided, however, that those restrictions are modified, with respect to
both the Shares and Class B Shares, to permit Shareholder to sell, assign, or
transfer any or all of the Shares or Class B Shares held by Shareholder to the
following:
(a) Shareholder's spouse, parent(s), siblings, or natural or
adopted lineal descendants, or the spouses of Shareholder's parent(s), siblings,
or lineal descendants (collectively, together with the Shareholder, referred to
as "Shareholder's Family Members");
(b) the trustee of a trust (including a voting trust)
principally for the benefit of Shareholder and/or one or more of Shareholder's
Family Members; provided that the trust may also grant a general or special
power of appointment to one or more of Shareholder's Family Members and may
permit trust assets to be used to pay taxes, legacies, and other obligations of
the trust or of the estates of one or more of Shareholder's Family Members
payable by reason of the death of any of Shareholder's Family Members; and
(c) a corporation, partnership, or limited liability company, a
majority of the voting equity interest in which is owned by Shareholder or by
one or more of Shareholder's transferees under subparagraphs (a) or (b) of this
Section.

6. Legends. Each certificate for Class B Shares owned by
-------
Shareholder shall bear the following legends:
(a) The shares represented by this certificate were issued
to the shareholder with restrictions. Neither the shares, nor any
interest in them, may be sold, transferred, assigned, pledged,
hypothecated, or otherwise disposed of, unless that transfer is
expressly permitted by a stock rights agreement, including any
amendment thereto, between the shareholder and the Company, a
copy of which is on file at the office of the Company in
Fairport, New York.
(b) The shares represented by this certificate have not
been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and
may not be transferred in the absence of such registration unless
the Company receives an opinion of counsel reasonably acceptable
to it stating the such sale or transfer is exempt from
registration.
(c) The shares represented by this certificate are subject to a
Stockholders' Agreement and to a proxy in favor of Xxxxxx X. Xxxxxxxx,
a copy of which is on file with the Company. Any transferee of the
shares represented by this certificate shall take the shares subject
to the terms of the Stockholders' Agreement and proxy.
With respect to Class B Shares that are subject to the Company's Purchase
Option, described in Section 3 of the Agreement, however, Shareholder shall be
entitled to a certificate without the legend set forth in subparagraph (a),
evidencing any Class B Shares as to which the Purchase Option has expired.
7. Non-competition. The non-competition covenant of Shareholder set
---------------
forth in subparagraph 5(a)(iii) of the Agreement is modified to read as
follows:
(iii) hold five percent (5%) or more of the shares of a
corporation, or serve as a partner, officer, member, manager,
director, consultant or other representative of any third party, which
