Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, at any time prior to 5:30 p.m. (New York time) on October 31, 2004, Seller may, on a single occasion, deliver a written notice to Purchasers indicating that during the period beginning on the 20th Trading Day following the date such written notice is delivered via facsimile (the “Blackout Commencement Date”) and up to the 30th day following the Blackout Commencement Date, Purchasers shall be precluded from delivering a Call Notice, provided, that: (i) the delivery of such written notice shall in no way affect a Call Notice delivered prior to the Blackout Commencement Date and (ii) the Call Termination Date shall be extended by the number of Trading Days during which Purchasers shall be precluded from delivering a Call Notice. Each closing of the purchase and sale of Call Shares to a Purchaser shall occur on the third Trading Day following the Call Notice Date (a “Call Date”). On each Call Date: (x) Seller shall deliver to the applicable Purchaser, a stock certificate reflecting a number of the Call Shares being purchased on such Call Date, together with a duly executed and medallion guaranteed stock power and such other instruments of transfer as such Purchaser may require in order to effectuate the sale contemplated herein, and (y) such Purchaser shall deliver an amount, in immediately available funds by wire transfer to an account designated in writing by Seller for such purpose, equal to the product of the Call Shares being purchased on such Call Date and the Call Price.
4. Option to Sell Put Shares. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, from time to time, during the period commencing on the date on which the Initial Registration Statement (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) is declared effective by the Commission and terminating at 5:30 p.m. (New York time) on April 27, 2005, provided, that such date shall be extended by the number of days between the Effective Date and the Closing Date, Seller shall have the option (the “Put”), from time to time, to require each Purchaser to purchase up to an aggregate number of Put Shares equal to the product obtained by multiplying such Purchaser’s Purchase Percentage and 3,500,000 (subject to equitable adjustment for stock splits, recombinations and similar events affecting the Common Stock), at a purchase price per Put Share equal to 94% of the arithmetic average of the VWAP for each of the 12 Trading Days immediately following the Put Notice Date (as defined below) (the “Put Price”). Seller may exercise the Put by providing each Purchaser and the Company written notice (a “Put Notice” and the date a Put Notice is delivered, a “Put Notice Date”), via facsimile, specifying the number of Put Shares to be sold by Seller to each Purchaser, provided, that Seller shall only be entitled to deliver a Put Notice if on the Put Notice Date the Initial Registration Statement shall be effective and not subject to any stop orders. Each closing of the purchase and sale of Put Shares shall occur on the 14th Trading Day immediately
3
following the Put Notice Date (the “Put Sale Date”). On each Put Sale Date: (x) Seller shall deliver to the each Purchaser, a stock certificate reflecting a number of the Put Shares being purchased on such Put Sale Date, together with a duly executed and medallion guaranteed stock power and such other instruments of transfer as such Purchaser may require in order to effectuate the sale contemplated herein, and (y) each Purchaser shall deliver an amount, in immediately available funds by wire transfer to an account designated in writing by Seller for such purpose, equal to the product of the Put Shares being purchased by such Purchaser on such Put Sale Date and the Put Price. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary: (i) a Put Notice may not require the purchase of an excess of an aggregate of 500,000 Put Shares (subject to equitable adjustment for stock splits, stock dividends, recombinations and similar events affecting the Common Stock) by all Purchasers and (ii) in the event that the Put Price shall equal less than $8.50 (subject to equitable adjustment for stock splits, stock dividends, recombinations and similar events affecting the Common Stock occurring between the Closing Date and the date at issue), no Purchaser shall be required to purchase Put Shares on the applicable Put Sale Date. Following the sale to Purchasers of an aggregate of 500,000 Put Shares (subject to equitable adjustment for stock splits, stock dividends, recombinations and similar events affecting the Common Stock) pursuant to the terms hereof, each Purchaser shall reimburse Seller for its legal fees in an amount equal to the product obtained by multiplying such Purchaser’s Purchase Percentage and the lesser of (i) $35,000 and (ii) 50% of Seller’s actual legal fees and expenses which are reimbursed to the Company (as evidenced by documentation acceptable to the Purchasers). Except as set forth in the immediately preceding sentence, the Purchasers shall not be required to reimburse the Seller for any other fees, whether in connection with the exercise of any additional Puts, the Call Option or otherwise.
5. Lock-Up of Shares. Seller agrees that, prior to the Call Termination Date (as such date may be extended pursuant to Section 2 hereof) and except as otherwise set forth in Sections 1 through 4 hereof, she will not, directly or indirectly, offer to sell, contract to sell or otherwise sell, dispose of, loan, pledge or grant any rights with respect to, or enter into any agreement with respect to the foregoing (collectively, a “Disposition”) any of the Initial Shares or Call Shares (collectively, the “Restricted Shares”). The foregoing restriction is expressly agreed to preclude Seller from engaging in any hedging or other transaction which is designed to or reasonably expected to lead to or result in a Disposition of Restricted Shares during the foregoing period even if such Shares would be disposed of by someone other than Seller. Such prohibited hedging or other transactions would include, without limitation, any short sale (whether or not against the box) or any purchase, sale or grant of any right (including, without limitation, any put or call option) with respect to any Restricted Shares or with respect to any security (other than a broad-based market basket or index) that includes, relates to or derives any significant part of its value from the Restricted Shares. This restriction shall be irrevocable and shall survive the death of Seller. Prior to the Closing, Seller shall require the Company to send written instructions to its transfer agent of such restrictions and direct its transfer agent to restrict any such sales in accordance therewith. In furtherance of the foregoing, and except as otherwise set forth herein, no Restricted Shares may be issued or held in electronic form and the transfer agent of the Company must be provided an irrevocable instruction in form and substance satisfactory to the Purchasers with respect to such restrictions.

a) Authorization. Such Purchaser has the requisite corporate power and authority to enter into and to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and otherwise to carry out its obligations thereunder.

b) No Conflicts. The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by such Purchaser and the consummation by such Purchaser of the transactions contemplated hereby does not and will not: (i) conflict with, or constitute a default (or an event which with notice or lapse of time or both would become a default) under, or give to others any rights of termination, amendment, acceleration or cancellation (with or without notice, lapse of time or both) of, any agreement, credit facility, debt or other instrument or other understanding to which such Purchaser is a party or by which any material property or asset of Seller is bound or affected, or (ii) result in a violation of any law, rule, regulation, order, judgment, injunction, decree or other restriction of any court or governmental authority to which such Purchaser is subject (including federal and state securities laws and regulations), or by which any property or asset of such Purchaser is bound or affected. No action, consent or approval of, or filing with, any governmental authority is required in connection with the
6
execution, delivery or performance by such Purchaser of this Agreement (or any agreement or other document executed in connection herewith by such Purchaser).

g) General Solicitation. To the best of its knowledge, such Purchaser is not purchasing the Shares sold to it hereunder as a result of any advertisement, article, notice or other communication regarding the Shares sold to it hereunder published in any newspaper, magazine or similar media or broadcast over television or radio or presented at any seminar or any other general solicitation or general advertisement.

7
public information. Seller understands and confirms that each Purchaser shall be relying on the foregoing representations in effecting transactions in the Shares.
9. Entire Agreement.

No amendment, modification or change to this Agreement shall be binding on either party unless set forth in a document executed by the parties.
10. Indemnity. Seller and each Purchaser shall indemnify and hold harmless the other, and the other’s directors, officers, and principals, from and against any and all losses, expenses and damages arising out of a failure of any representation or warranty of such party contained in this Agreement to be true and correct, including reasonable attorneys fees.

13. Governing Law. All questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of this Agreement shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York, without regard to the principles of conflicts of law thereof. Each party agrees that all legal proceedings concerning the interpretations, enforcement and defense of the transactions contemplated hereby shall be commenced exclusively in the state and federal courts sitting in The City of New York, Borough of Manhattan. Each party hereto hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts sitting in the City of New York, Borough of Manhattan for the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in connection herewith or with any transaction contemplated hereby or discussed herein (including with respect to the enforcement of any of this Agreement), and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any suit, action or proceeding, any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, that such suit, action or proceeding is improper or in an inconvenient forum. Each party hereto hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to process being served in any such suit, action or proceeding by mailing a copy thereof via registered or certified mail or overnight delivery (with evidence of delivery) to such party at the address in effect for notices to it under this Agreement and agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit in any way any right to serve process in any manner permitted by law. Each party hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any and all right to trial by jury in any legal proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby. If either party shall commence an action or proceeding to enforce any provisions of this Agreement, then the prevailing party in such action or proceeding shall be reimbursed by the other party for its reasonable attorneys fees and other reasonable costs and expenses incurred with the investigation, preparation and prosecution of such action or proceeding.

14. Independent Nature of Purchasers. The obligations of each Purchaser hereunder are several and not joint with the obligations of any other Purchaser, and no Purchaser shall be responsible in any way for the performance of the obligations of any other Purchaser hereunder. The decision of each Purchaser to purchase Shares pursuant to this Agreement has been made by such Purchaser independently of any other Purchaser and independently of any information, materials, statements or opinions as to the business, affairs, operations, assets, properties, liabilities, results of operations, condition (financial or otherwise) or prospects of the Seller or the Company which may have been made or given by any other Purchaser or by any agent or employee of any other Purchaser, and no Purchaser or any of its agents or employees shall have any liability to any other Purchaser (or any other person) relating to or arising from any such information, materials, statements or opinions. Nothing contained herein and no action taken by any Purchaser pursuant hereto or thereto, shall be deemed to constitute the Purchasers as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the Purchasers are in any way acting in concert or as a group with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated hereby. Each Purchaser shall be entitled to independently protect and enforce its rights, including without limitation the rights arising out of this Agreement, and it shall not be necessary for any other Purchaser to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose.
15. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which, taken together, shall constitute one and the same instrument.
16. Rights and Obligations of Seller. The obligations of Xxxxxxxxx and the Trust as Seller hereunder are joint and several. Any rights of Seller hereunder may be exercised by either Xxxxxxxxx or the Trust but not both parties.
