WHEREAS, the Company, the FPC Shareholders and the Trust are party to an Amended and Restated Shareholders Agreement, dated as of December 15, 2003 (the “Agreement”);

WHEREAS, the Company, the FPC Shareholders and the Trusts desire to amend the Agreement; and
WHEREAS, the actions contemplated herein on behalf of each of the Company, the FPC Shareholders and by the Trusts holding a majority of the outstanding Shares held by the Trusts have been duly and validly authorized by all necessary action and no other proceedings on the part of the Company, the FPC Shareholder or the Trusts are necessary to consummate the actions contemplated herein.
NOW, THEREFORE, the parties agree as follows:
1. Terms defined in the Agreement and used herein shall have the meanings given to them in the Agreement.
2. Sections 3.1(a), (b), and (c) of the Agreement shall be amended and restated in their entirety and shall read as follows:

(b) The FPC Shareholders may at any time cause any FPC Shareholder Nominee to be removed from the Board with or without cause at their sole discretion.
(c) If a vacancy on the Board occurs at any time as a result of the death, disability, resignation, retirement or removal of any FPC Shareholder Nominee, the FPC Shareholders shall have the right to nominate for election or appointment a replacement director. Following notice from the FPC Shareholder to the Company of its nomination of a replacement director, the Board shall not conduct any business until such nominee has been elected or appointed to the Board.”
3. Except as expressly amended, modified and supplemented above, all other provisions of the Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.
4. This Amendment may be executed by one or more of the parties hereto on any number of separate counterparts (including by facsimile transmission), and all of said counterparts taken together shall be deemed to constitute one and the same instrument.
