stockholders of the Company called to consider and vote upon the adoption of the
Merger Agreement (and at any and all postponements and adjournments thereof),
and in connection with any action to be taken in respect of the adoption of the
Merger Agreement by written consent of stockholders of the Company, each
Stockholder will vote or cause to be voted (including by written consent, if

vote in favor of the adoption of the Merger Agreement and in favor of any other
matter necessary or appropriate for the consummation of the transactions
contemplated by the Merger Agreement that is considered and voted upon at any

Adverse Proposal by written consent of stockholders of the Company, each
Stockholder will vote or cause to be voted (including by written consent, if

vote against the adoption of such Adverse Proposal. For purposes of this
Agreement, the term "Adverse Proposal" means (a) any Company Takeover Proposal,
(b) any proposal or action that would reasonably be expected to result in a
breach of any covenant, agreement, representation or warranty of the Company set
forth in this Agreement or the Merger Agreement, or (c) the following actions
(other than the Offer, the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by the
Merger Agreement): (i) any extraordinary corporate transaction, such as a
merger, consolidation or other business combination involving the Company or the
Company Subsidiary; (ii) a sale, lease, disposition or transfer of a material
amount of assets of the Company or the Company Subsidiary, or a reorganization,
recapitalization, dissolution or liquidation of the Company or the Company
Subsidiary; and (iii) (1) any change in a majority of the persons who constitute
the Company Board as of the date hereof; (2) any change in the present
capitalization of the Company or any amendment of the Company's certificate of

the Company's corporate structure or business; or (4) any other action that is
intended, or could reasonably be expected, to impede, interfere with, delay,
postpone, or adversely affect the Offer or the Merger and the other transactions
contemplated by this Agreement and the Merger Agreement or increase the
likelihood that such transactions will not be consummated.
2.2 Irrevocable Proxy.
(a) Grant of Proxy. Each Stockholder hereby appoints Parent and any
designee of Parent, each of them individually, such Stockholder's proxy and
attorney-in-fact, with full power of substitution and resubstitution, to vote or
act by written consent with respect to all of such Stockholder's Subject Shares
which it has the right to vote (i) in accordance with Section 2.1 hereof and
(ii) to sign its name (as a stockholder) to any consent, certificate or other
document relating to the Company that the law of the State of Delaware may
permit or require in connection with any matter referred to in Section 2.1. This
proxy is given to secure the performance of the duties of such Stockholder under
this Agreement and its existence will not be deemed to relieve the Stockholders
of their obligations under Section 2.1. Each Stockholder affirms that this proxy
is coupled with an interest and is irrevocable until termination of this
2
Agreement pursuant to Section 5.2, whereupon such proxy and power of attorney
shall automatically terminate. Each Stockholder will take such further action or
execute such other instruments as may be necessary to effectuate the intent of
this proxy. For Subject Shares as to which the Stockholder is the beneficial but
not the record owner, the Stockholder will cause any record owner of such
Subject Shares to grant to Parent a proxy to the same effect as that contained
herein.
(b) Other Proxies Revoked. Each Stockholder represents that any proxy
heretofore given in respect of such Stockholder's Subject Shares is not
irrevocable, and hereby revokes any and all such proxies.

incorporation, certificate of limited partnership, articles of organization,

regulation applicable to the Stockholder; except in the case of clauses (ii) and

this Agreement and for the conversion of Subject Shares into the right to
receive the Offer Price at the Effective Time pursuant to the terms of the
Merger Agreement, offer for sale, sell, transfer, tender, pledge, encumber,
gift, assign or otherwise dispose of, or enter into any contract, option or

recapitalization, reclassification, combination or exchange of shares of capital

like or any other action that would have the effect of changing a Stockholder's
ownership of the Company's capital stock or other securities or (b) a
Stockholder becomes the beneficial owner of any additional Shares or other
securities of the Company, then the terms of this Agreement will apply to the

(b) Non-Solicitation. Each Stockholder shall not and shall not
authorize or permit its Representatives to directly or indirectly to (i)

Agreement.
4.7 Disclosure. Each Stockholder hereby authorizes Parent and Purchaser to
publish and disclose in the Offer Documents, any announcement or disclosure
required by the SEC and the NASDAQ Stock Market and, if approval of the

V. MISCELLANEOUS
5.1 Fees and Expenses. Each party hereto will pay its own expenses incident
to preparing for, entering into and carrying out this Agreement and the
consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby.
5.2 Termination. This Agreement will terminate on the earliest to occur of
(a) the Effective Time, (b) the date the Merger Agreement is terminated in
accordance with its terms, or (c) September 30, 2002. This Agreement may be
earlier terminated by the mutual consent of the Board of Directors of Parent and
the Stockholders representing a majority of the Subject Shares subject to this
Agreement. Except as set forth below, in the event of termination of this
Agreement pursuant to this Section 5.2, this Agreement will become null and void
and of no effect with no liability on the part of any party hereto and all
proxies granted hereby will be automatically revoked; provided, however, that no
such termination will relieve any party hereto from any liability for any breach
of this Agreement occurring prior to such termination. Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary contained in this Agreement, (a) if this Agreement is terminated
for any reason, Sections 5.1, 5.5, 5.15 and 5.16 and this Section 5.2 will
survive any termination of this Agreement indefinitely.
5.3 Extension; Waiver. Any agreement on the part of a party to waive any
provision of this Agreement, or to extend the time for any performance
hereunder, will be valid only if set forth in an instrument in writing signed on
behalf of such party. The failure of any party to this Agreement to assert any
of its rights under this Agreement or otherwise will not constitute a waiver of
such rights. Any waiver by any party of a breach of any provision of this
Agreement will not operate as or be construed as a waiver of any other breach of
such provision or of any breach of any other provision of this Agreement. The
failure of a party to insist upon strict adherence to any term of this Agreement
or one or more sections hereof will not be considered a waiver or deprive that
party of a right thereafter to insist upon strict adherence to that term or any
other term of this Agreement.
5.4 Entire Agreement; No Third-Party Beneficiaries; Several Obligations.
This Agreement and the Merger Agreement constitute the entire agreement among
the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof, and supersede all
prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, among the parties

intended to confer upon any person other than the parties hereto any rights or
remedies. The obligations of, and the representations and warranties made by,
each Stockholder shall be several and not joint and shall relate only to such
Stockholder.
