in no event be obligated to take any affirmative action in order to cause the exercise of the
Option or the resulting delivery of shares of Common Stock or other payment to comply with any law
or regulation of any governmental authority.

of a majority of the issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Corporation at the annual
meeting of shareholders held on May 16, 2006.
