Gentlemen:
Reference is made to that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger dated
September 27, 1996 by and among us (the "Merger Agreement"). All capitalized
terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the meanings accorded
them in the Merger Agreement.
The following constitutes our agreement in respect of amendment of the
Merger Agreement:
1. The proviso contained in the seventh sentence of Section 1.7 of the
Merger Agreement is amended in its entirety to be and read as follows:
PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that in the case of such shares issuable on the
first anniversary of the Closing Date, in the event that (A) the
average sales price computed in accordance with this sentence is less
than 70% of the Market Price on the Closing Date (or appropriately
adjusted from such Market Price in the event that any anti-dilution
event as set forth in Section 1.8 shall occur after the date of this
Agreement), the Market Price shall nevertheless be fixed at 70% of the
Market Price on the Closing Date (or appropriately adjusted from such
Market Price in the event that any anti-dilution event as set forth in
Section 1.8 shall occur after the date of this Agreement) and (B) the
average sales price computed in accordance with this sentence is
greater than $20 (or appropriately adjusted from $20 in the event that
any anti-dilution event as set forth in Section 1.8 shall occur after
the date of this Agreement), the Market Price shall nevertheless be
fixed at $20 (or appropriately adjusted from $20 in the event that any
anti-dilution
event as set forth in Section 1.8 shall occur after the date of this
Agreement).
2. Attached hereto as Exhibit A is the list of Shareholders referred to
in the preambles to the Merger Agreement, which Exhibit A supersedes Exhibit A
attached to the Merger Agreement on the date of its execution.
3. Except as hereby amended, the Merger Agreement shall remain in full
force and effect in accordance with its terms.
If the foregoing correctly sets forth your understanding of our
