AGREEMENTS
1. Definitions. For purposes of this Agreement:
(a) "Acquisition Proposal" shall mean any agreement, letter
of intent, proposal or offer (other than the transactions contemplated in the
Merger Agreement) involving the Target or any of its Subsidiaries for, or an
inquiry or indication of interest that reasonably could be expected to lead to:
(i) any merger, consolidation, share exchange, recapitalization,
reorganization, dissolution, liquidation, business combination or other similar
transaction with the Target or any of its Subsidiaries, (ii) any sale, lease,
exchange, mortgage, pledge, transfer or other disposition of a material portion
of the assets of the Target and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, in a single
transaction or series of transactions or (iii) any tender offer or exchange
offer for all or any portion of the outstanding shares of capital stock of the

under the Securities Act of 1933 in connection therewith, but shall not include
the Offer, the Merger Agreement or Second Transaction (as defined herein).
(b) "Affiliate" of any Person means another Person that
directly or indirectly, through one or more intermediaries, controls, is
controlled by or is under common control with, such first Person.

(as determined pursuant to Rule 13d-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of
1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act")), including pursuant to any agreement,
arrangement or understanding, whether or not in writing. Without duplicative
counting of the same securities by the same holder, securities Beneficially
Owned by a Person shall include securities Beneficially Owned by all other
Persons (who are Affiliates of such Person excluding officers and directors of
the Target) who together with such Person would constitute a "group" within the
meaning of Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act and in any event with respect
to the Stockholder shall include Shares held of record by any of Xxxx Xxxxxxxx
and his spouse and children.
(d) "Person" shall mean an individual, corporation, limited
liability company, partnership, joint venture, association, trust,
unincorporated organization or other entity.

stock appreciation rights held of record or Beneficially Owned by the
Stockholder (collectively, the "Convertible Securities").
(g) "Termination Date" shall mean the date that the Merger
Agreement has been terminated.
2. Provisions Concerning Shares.
(a) Acquisition Sub hereby agrees to purchase, and
Stockholder agrees to sell, or cause to be sold, all such Stockholder's Shares
(other than the Convertible Securities) at a price per share equal to the Per
Share Amount, subject only to the condition (which may be waived only by
Acquisition Sub in its sole discretion) that Acquisition Sub shall have
accepted for payment and paid for shares of Target Common Stock pursuant to the
Offer (the "Purchase"). The closing of the Purchase shall be effected by the
Stockholder validly tendering (or causing the record holder of such shares to
validly tender) all such Stockholder's Shares (other than the Convertible
Securities) into the Offer, and by Acquisition Sub accepting for payment and
paying for such Shares pursuant to the terms of the Offer. In furtherance of
the foregoing, Stockholder hereby agrees that it shall validly tender and not
withdraw the Stockholder's Shares (other than the Convertible Securities) into
the Offer. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Offer, Acquiror shall
comply, and shall cause Acquisition Sub to comply, with all provisions of
Article I of the Merger Agreement.
2
(b) If for any reason any Stockholder's Shares (other than
the Convertible Securities) are not purchased in the Offer and either (i) other
shares of Target Common Stock are purchased in the Offer or (ii) the Offer is
not consummated due to a failure of the Minimum Condition, Acquisition Sub
shall purchase, and Stockholder shall sell, all of Stockholder's Shares (other
than the Convertible Securities) at a price per Share equal to the Per Share
Amount within five business days (after obtaining all applicable consents and
approvals) following the expiration of the Offer at a time and place to be
mutually agreed to between Acquisition Sub and Stockholder. Acquiror shall
provide or cause to be provided to Acquisition Sub on a timely basis the funds
sufficient to accept for payment, and pay for, any and all Shares that
Acquisition Sub becomes obligated to accept for payment, and pay for, pursuant
to the Offer or otherwise hereunder.
(c) From and after the date of this Agreement and ending as
of the first to occur of the Effective Time or the four month anniversary of
the Termination Date, at any meeting of the holders of Shares, however called,
or in any other circumstance upon which the vote, consent or other approval of
holders of one or more class or series of Shares is sought, the Stockholder
shall vote or cause to be voted (including by written consent, if applicable)
the issued and outstanding Stockholder's Shares (and each class thereof)
entitled to vote thereon, and those Shares entitled to vote thereon for which
Stockholder has the right to direct or control the vote, (i) in favor of the
Merger, the execution and delivery by the Target of the Merger Agreement and
the approval of the terms thereof and each of the other actions contemplated by
the Merger Agreement and this Agreement and any actions required in furtherance
thereof and hereof, (ii) against any action or agreement that would result in a
breach in any material respect of any covenant, representation or warranty or
any other material obligation or agreement of the Target under the Merger
Agreement or this Agreement and (iii) against the following actions (other than
the Merger and the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement): (A) any
Acquisition Proposal other than an Acquisition Proposal with Acquiror or any
Affiliate thereof and (B) to the extent that such are intended to, or could
reasonably be expected to, (1) impede, interfere with, delay, postpone or
materially adversely affect the Merger or the transactions contemplated by the
Merger Agreement or this Agreement or (2) implement or lead to any Acquisition
Proposal (other than an Acquisition Proposal with Acquiror or any Affiliate
thereof): (w) any change in a majority of the persons who constitute the board
of directors of the Target; (x) any change in the present capitalization of the
Target or any amendment of the Target's Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws;
or (y) any other material change in the Target's corporate structure or
business; provided that if any Second Transaction (as defined in Section 3(c)
of this Agreement) provides for Second Transaction Consideration (as defined in
3(c) of this Agreement) that is less than the Current Transaction Consideration
(as defined in Section 3(a) of this Agreement), as such amounts shall be
determined in accordance with Section 3 of this Agreement, then nothing herein
shall require the Stockholder to vote in favor of the Second Transaction. In
addition to the other covenants and agreements of the Stockholder provided for
elsewhere in this Agreement, during the above-described period the Stockholder
shall not enter into any agreement or understanding with any Person or entity
the effect of which would be inconsistent with or violate the provisions and
agreements contained in this Section 2. Nothing herein shall in any way
restrict or limit the Stockholder from taking any action in his capacity as a
director or officer of the Target or otherwise fulfilling his fiduciary
obligations as a director and officer of the Target.
(d) Stockholder, with respect to the Shares Beneficially
Owned by Stockholder, does hereby constitute and appoint Acquiror, or any
nominee of Acquiror, with full power of
3
substitution, from the date hereof to the earlier to occur of the Effective
Time or the four month anniversary of the Termination Date, as its true and
lawful attorney and proxy (its "Proxy"), for and in its name, place and stead,
to demand that the Secretary of the Target call a special meeting of the
stockholders of the Target for the purpose of considering any action related to
the Merger Agreement or the Merger and to vote the Shares as its Proxy, at
every annual, special or adjourned meeting of the stockholders of the Target,
including the right to sign its name (as stockholder) to any consent,
certificate or other document relating to the Target that the laws of the State
of Delaware may permit or require, in connection with the matters described in
the foregoing Section 2(c). The Proxy may not exercise this proxy on any other
matter. The Stockholder may vote the Shares on all such other matters. THIS
PROXY AND POWER OF ATTORNEY IS IRREVOCABLE AND COUPLED WITH AN INTEREST. The
Stockholder represents that any proxies heretofore given in respect of the
Stockholder's Shares are not irrevocable, and that any such proxies are hereby
revoked.
(e) Stockholder hereby permits Acquiror and Acquisition Sub
to publish and disclose in the Offer Documents (including all documents and
schedules filed with the SEC) and, if approval of Target's stockholders is
required under applicable law, in the Proxy Statement its identity and
ownership of the Stockholder's Shares and the nature of its commitments,
arrangements and understandings under this Agreement.
3. Capture.
4
(a) In the event that any of the Stockholder's Shares are
sold, transferred, exchanged, canceled or disposed of in connection with or as
a result of any Acquisition Proposal that is in existence on or that otherwise
has been made prior to the first anniversary of the Termination Date (an
"Alternative Disposition"), then, within five business days after the closing
of such Alternative Disposition, the Stockholder shall tender and pay to, or
shall cause to be tendered and paid to, the Acquiror, or its designee, in
immediately available funds, 100% of the Profit realized from such Alternative
Disposition. As used in this Section 3(a), "Profit" shall mean an amount equal
to the excess, if any, of (i) the Alternative Transaction Consideration over
(ii) the Current Transaction Consideration. As used in this Section 3,
"Alternative Transaction Consideration" shall mean all cash, securities,
settlement or termination amounts, notes or other debt instruments, and other
consideration received or to be received, directly or indirectly, by the
Stockholder and his Affiliates (excluding officers and directors of the Target)
in connection with or as a result of such Alternative Disposition or any
agreements or arrangements (including, without limitation, any employment
agreement (except a bona fide employment agreement pursuant to which the
Stockholder is required to devote, and under which Stockholder in good faith
intends to devote, substantially all of his business time and effort to the
performance of executive services for the Target in a manner substantially
similar to Stockholder's current employment arrangements with the Target),
consulting agreement, non-competition agreement, confidentiality agreement,
settlement agreement, loan (or loan forgiveness) agreement or release
agreement) entered into, directly or indirectly, by the Stockholder or his
Affiliates (excluding officers and directors of Target) as a part of or in
connection with the Alternative Disposition or associated Acquisition Proposal.
As used in this Agreement, "Current Transaction Consideration" shall mean the
sum of (x) all amounts to be received, directly or indirectly, by Stockholder
and his Affiliates (excluding officers and directors of the Target) pursuant to
Article II of the Merger Agreement and (y) all other amounts to be received by
Stockholder, directly or indirectly, pursuant to the Offer or any of the other
transactions or agreements contemplated by the Merger Agreement (other than the
employment agreements contemplated by Section 7.02 thereof).
(b) For purposes of determining Profits under this Section 3,
(i) all non-cash items shall be valued based upon the fair market value thereof
as determined by an independent expert selected by Acquiror and who is
reasonably acceptable to Stockholder, (ii) all deferred payments or
consideration shall be discounted to reflect a market rate of net present value
thereof as determined by the above-referenced independent expert, (iii) all
contingent payments will be assumed to have been paid, (iv) if less than all of
the Stockholder's Shares are subject to the Alternative Disposition or Second
Transaction then the Current Transaction Consideration shall be deemed to be an
amount equal to the Current Transaction Consideration multiplied by a fraction,
the numerator of which is the number of the Stockholder's Shares sold,
transferred, exchanged, canceled or disposed of in such Alternative Disposition
or Second Transaction and the denominator of which is the total number of the
Stockholder's Shares, and (v) the principal amount of all loans made to
Stockholder by the acquiror or any Affiliate thereof, or loans to Stockholder
that are forgiven, shall be added to the Alternative Transaction Consideration
or the Second Transaction Consideration (as defined herein), as the case may
be. In the event any contingent payments included in the determination of
Profits ultimately are not paid pursuant to an Alternative Disposition, then
Acquiror shall reimburse Stockholder for any amounts paid to Acquiror hereunder
in respect of such uncollected contingent payments promptly after receipt of
written notice of such non payment.
5
(c) In the event that after the date of this Agreement, the
amount of Merger Consideration or the consideration payable in respect of the
Warrants, Options and Convertible Notes as currently provided for in the Merger
Agreement is increased (a "Second Transaction"), then, as may be requested by
Acquiror, either (i) Stockholder shall, and shall cause each of its Affiliates
who Beneficially Own any of the Stockholder's Shares to, execute and deliver to
Acquiror such documents or instruments as may be necessary to waive the right
to receive the amount of such increase to the extent that such increase results
in any Profit or (ii) Stockholder shall tender and pay, or cause to be tendered
and paid, to Acquiror or its designee, in immediately available funds, 100% of
the Profit realized from such Second Transaction. As used in this Section 3(c),
"Profit" shall mean an amount equal to the excess, if any, of (y) the Second
Transaction Consideration over (z) the Current Transaction Consideration. As
used in this Agreement, "Second Transaction Consideration" shall mean all cash,
securities, settlement or termination amounts, notes or other debt instruments,
and other consideration received or to be received, directly or indirectly, by
the Stockholder and his Affiliates (excluding officers and directors of the
Target) in connection with or as a result of the Second Transaction or any
agreements or arrangements (including, without limitation, any employment
agreement (except a bona fide employment agreement pursuant to which the
Stockholder is required to devote, and under which Stockholder in good faith
intends to devote, substantially all of his business time and effort to the
performance of executive services for the Target in a manner substantially
similar to Stockholder's current employment arrangements with the Target),
consulting agreement, non-competition agreement, confidentiality agreement,
settlement agreement, loan (or loan forgiveness) agreement or release
agreement) entered into, directly or indirectly, by the Stockholder or his
Affiliates (excluding officers and directors of the Target) with the Target as
a part of or in connection with the Second Transaction.

permit, authorization, consent or approval of, any state or federal public body
or authority is necessary for the execution of this Agreement by the

contemplated hereby, except where the failure to obtain such consent, permit,
authorization, approval or filing would not interfere with the Stockholder's
ability to perform his obligations hereunder, and none of the execution and
delivery of this Agreement by the Stockholder, the consummation by the
Stockholder of the transactions contemplated hereby or compliance by the
Stockholder with any of the provisions hereof shall (A) result in a violation
or breach of, or constitute (with or without notice or lapse of time or both) a
default (or give rise to any third party right of termination, cancellation,
material modification or acceleration) under any of the terms, conditions or
provisions of any note, bond, mortgage, indenture, license, contract,
commitment, arrangement, understanding, agreement or other instrument or
obligation of any kind to which the Stockholder is a party or by which the
Stockholder or any of his properties or assets may be bound, (B) violate any
order, writ, injunction, decree, judgment, order, statute, rule or regulation
applicable to the Stockholder or any of his properties or assets, in each such
case except to the extent that any conflict, breach, default or violation would
not interfere with the ability of the Stockholder to perform its obligations
hereunder, or (C) to the knowledge of the Stockholder, trigger a "change in
control" or similar provision of any contract, agreement or understanding to
which the Target or any of Target's Subsidiaries is a party, or by which any of
their respective property or assets are bound.
(iv) No Encumbrances. Except as required by

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

this Agreement.
(v) No Solicitation. The Stockholder shall
comply with the terms of Section 6.06 of the Merger Agreement.

directly or indirectly, without the
7
consent of Acquiror, in respect of any Acquisition Proposal or otherwise: (A)
offer for sale, sell, transfer, tender, pledge, encumber, assign or otherwise
dispose of, or enter into any contract, option or other arrangement or

(vii) Waiver of and Agreement Not to Assert
Appraisal Rights. The Stockholder hereby waives and agrees not to assert, and
shall cause any of its Affiliates who hold of record any of the Stockholder's
Shares to waive and not to assert, any appraisal rights with respect to the
Merger (or any Second Transaction) that the Stockholder or such Affiliate may
now or hereafter have with respect to any Shares (or any other shares of
capital stock of the Target that the Stockholder shall hold of record at the
time that Stockholder may be entitled to assert appraisal rights with respect
to the Merger or any Second Transaction) whether pursuant to Section 262 of the
Delaware General Corporate Law or otherwise.
(viii) Further Assurances. From time to time, at
Acquiror's request and without further consideration, the Stockholder shall
execute and deliver such additional documents as may be necessary or desirable

the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. The Stockholder shall
cooperate fully with Target and Acquiror in connection with their respective
efforts to fulfill the conditions to the Offer and the Merger set forth in the
Merger Agreement.

forth on Schedule B is a complete list of all rights of first refusal,
preemptive rights or similar rights held by the Stockholder and any of its
Affiliates to purchase Shares upon transfer (collectively, "Rights of First
Refusal"). From and after the date of this Agreement and ending as of the first
to occur of the Effective Time or the first anniversary of the Termination
Date, the Stockholder shall not, and shall cause each its Affiliates who hold
Rights of First Refusal not to, directly or indirectly, without the consent of
Acquiror, in respect of the Offer, the Merger, any Acquisition Proposal, any
Second Transaction or otherwise, exercise any of such Rights of First Refusal
to purchase or otherwise acquire Shares.

(c) Target hereby represents and warrants to Acquiror and
Acquisition Sub that the Board of Directors of Target (including any committee

as of the first to occur of the Effective Time or the first anniversary of the
Termination Date, Stockholder will not request that Target register (and Target

distributions and any shares into which or for which any or all of the Shares
(or any class thereof) may be changed or exchanged as may be appropriate to
reflect such event.

(d) Severability. Whenever possible, each provision or
portion of any provision of this Agreement will be interpreted in such manner
as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision or
portion of any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid, illegal or
unenforceable in any respect under any applicable law or rule in any
jurisdiction, then such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability will not
affect any other provision or portion of any provision in such jurisdiction,
and this Agreement will be reformed, construed and enforced in such
jurisdiction as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision or portion
of any provision had never been contained herein.
(e) Specific Performance. Each of the parties hereto
recognizes and acknowledges that a breach by the Stockholder of any covenants
or agreements contained in this Agreement will cause the Acquiror and
Acquisition Sub to sustain damages for which they would not have an adequate
remedy at law for money damages, and therefore each of the parties hereto
agrees that, in the event of any such breach, the Acquiror or Acquisition Sub
shall be entitled to the remedy of specific performance of such covenants and
agreements and injunctive and other equitable relief, without the necessity of
posting bond or proving actual damages, in addition to any other remedy to
which they may be entitled, at law or in equity.
(f) Remedies Cumulative. All rights, powers and remedies
provided under this Agreement or otherwise available in respect hereof at law
or in equity shall be cumulative and not alternative, and the exercise of any
such right, power or remedy by any party shall not preclude the simultaneous or
later exercise of any other such right, power or remedy by such party.
(g) No Waiver. The failure of any party hereto to exercise
any right, power or remedy provided under this Agreement or otherwise available
in respect hereof at law or in equity, or to insist upon compliance by any
other party hereto with its obligations hereunder, and any custom or practice
of the parties at variance with the terms hereof, shall not constitute a waiver
by such party of its right to exercise any such or other right, power or remedy
or to demand such compliance.
(h) No Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement is not
intended to be for the benefit of, and shall not be enforceable by, any person
or entity who or which is not a party hereto; provided that, in the event of
the Stockholder's death, the obligations of the Stockholder hereunder shall
attach to the Stockholder's Shares and shall be binding upon any Person to
which legal or beneficial ownership of such Shares shall pass, whether by
operation of Law or otherwise, including without limitation the Stockholder's
