otherwise) in event the Holder fails to vote its shares of Common Stock as
required under Section 2.1 within ten (10) days after notice from the party
holding such proxy requesting such a vote.

following the Closing Date, the Company shall amend its Articles of
Incorporation, Code of Regulations or Bylaws, as the case may be, to eliminate
cumulative voting in the election of directors.

meeting of the stockholders or special meeting of the stockholders of the

amendments thereof or supplements thereto, the "PROXY STATEMENT") which shall
include the recommendation of the Board in favor of electing the directors
specified in Section 2.1. Except in the event of termination of this Agreement,
no modification or withdrawal of such recommendation shall release the Company
of its obligation to submit the election of directors specified in Section 2.1
to its stockholders for their vote in accordance with applicable law. The
-6-
7

specified in Section 2.1.
