beneficiaries), in substantially the form of Exhibit G hereto, pursuant to which
if, at any time and from time to time, the Borrower is required to obtain an
amount of cash from a Specified Equity Offering pursuant to Section 5.15 of the
Credit Agreement, then on such day the Equity Purchaser shall, unless the Equity
Purchaser shall cause an Affiliate thereof (other than the Borrower or any of
