subject to adjustment pursuant to Section 5 hereof (such shares of Cornerstone
Preferred Stock held by Deutsche Bank and Xxxxxxxxx Xxxxxx are referred to

immediately available funds to an account(s) designated by each of Deutsche Bank
and Xxxxxxxxx Xxxxxx at least two business days prior to the Option Closing.

CAPITALIZATION, ETC. In the event of any change in the Cornerstone Preferred

agreement between the parties and supersedes all prior agreements and
understandings, both written and oral, between the parties, or any of them, with
respect to the subject matter hereof.

9.7 INJUNCTIVE RELIEF. The parties agree that in the event of
a breach of any provision of this Agreement irreparable damage would occur, the

which together shall constitute one and the same document.
9.10 SEVERABILITY. Any term or provision of this Agreement
which is invalid or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such
jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity or
unenforceability without rendering invalid or unenforceable the remaining terms
and provisions of this Agreement or affecting the validity or enforceability of
any of the terms or provisions of this Agreement in any other jurisdiction. If
any provision of this Agreement is so broad as to be unenforceable, such
provision shall be interpreted to be only so broad as to make it enforceable.

deliver all such further documents and take all such further action as may be
necessary in order to consummate the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement.
9.12 THIRD PARTY BENEFICIARIES. Nothing in this Agreement,
