market will develop; and (ii) the Purchaser Shares have not been registered
under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), or the
securities laws of any state or other jurisdiction and, therefore, cannot be
sold except in compliance with such laws. Such Stockholder agrees not to sell or
otherwise dispose of the Purchaser Shares acquired by such Stockholder unless
the Purchaser Shares are subsequently registered under the Securities Act and
such state securities laws as are applicable or unless there are available

for such Stockholder, which opinion is satisfactory in form and substance to the
Purchaser. Such Stockholder has no present arrangement, understanding or
agreement for transferring or disposing of any or all shares of the Purchaser.
Such Stockholder agrees that a legend to the foregoing effect may be placed upon
any and all certificates representing shares of the Purchaser.

further force and effect: (i) upon the written consent of all of the parties
hereto; and (ii) automatically and without any required action of the parties
hereto upon the withdrawal of the Offer. No such termination of this Agreement
shall relieve any party hereto from any liability for any breach of this
Agreement prior to termination.
Section 5.2. Further Assurance. From time to time, at another party's
request and without additional consideration, each party hereto shall execute
and deliver such additional documents and take all such further action as may be
necessary or desirable to consummate and make effective, in the most expeditious
manner practicable, the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.
Section 5.3. Specific Performance. Each Stockholder acknowledges that if
such Stockholder fails to perform any of its obligations under this Agreement,
immediate and irreparable harm or injury would be caused to the Purchaser for
which money damages would not be an adequate remedy. In such event, each
Stockholder agrees that the Purchaser shall have the right, in addition to any
other rights that it may have, to specific performance of this Agreement.
Accordingly, if the Purchaser should institute an action or proceeding seeking
specific enforcement of the provisions hereof, each Stockholder hereby waives
the claim or defense that the Purchaser has an adequate remedy at law and hereby
agrees not to assert in any such action or proceeding the claim or defense that
such a remedy at law exists. Each Stockholder further agrees to waive any

Section 5.6. Severability. If any term or other provision of this
Agreement is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any rule of law
or public policy, all other conditions and provisions of this Agreement shall
nevertheless remain in full force and effect so long as the economic or legal
substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner
adverse to any party. Upon such determination that any term or other provision
is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the parties hereto shall
negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original

that transactions contemplated hereby are fulfilled to the maximum extent
possible.

Agreement constitutes the entire agreement among the parties hereto and
supersedes all other prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral,
among the parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement.
Section 5.8. Assignment. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights,
interests or obligations under this Agreement may be assigned or delegated, in
whole or in part by any of the parties, other than by operation of law;
provided, however, that the Purchaser may assign, in its sole discretion, its
rights and obligations hereunder to any direct or indirect wholly-owned
subsidiary of the Purchaser, but no such assignment shall relieve the Purchaser
of its obligations hereunder if such assignee does not perform such obligations.
Each Stockholder agrees that this Agreement and such Stockholder's obligations
hereunder shall attach to the Exchange Shares and shall be binding upon any
person or entity to which legal or beneficial ownership of the Exchange Shares
shall pass by operation of law.
Section 5.9. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, and
construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New Jersey, regardless of
the laws that might otherwise govern under applicable principles of conflicts of
laws thereof. Each of the parties hereto (a) hereby irrevocably and
unconditionally consents to submit to the personal jurisdiction of the courts of
the State of New Jersey and of the United States of America located in the State
of New Jersey in the event any dispute arises out of this Agreement or any of
the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (b) shall not object to or
attempt to deny or defeat such personal jurisdiction by motion or other request
for leave from any such court, and (c) shall not bring any action relating to
this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement in any
other court.
Section 5.10. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY

with any of their agreements or conditions contained herein. Any agreement on
the part of a party hereto to any such extension or waiver shall be valid only
as against such party and only if set forth in an instrument in writing signed
by such party. The failure of any party hereto to assert any of its rights under
this Agreement or otherwise shall not constitute a waiver of those rights.
Section 5.13. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more
counterparts, all of which shall be considered one and the same instrument and
shall become effective when one or more counterparts have been signed by each of
the parties and delivered to the other parties.
