RECITALS
The Company, Total and Total Merger Sub Inc., a Delaware corporation
and a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of the Company ("Merger Sub"), propose to
enter into an Agreement and Plan of Merger dated the date hereof (the "Merger
Agreement"; capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein being used herein as

with and into Total, and each outstanding Total Share would be converted into
the right to receive shares of Company Common Stock; and
The Holder is the beneficial owner of the number of shares of
Company Common Stock and options or rights to acquire shares of Company Common
Stock (such securities and any other securities of the Company hereafter
acquired by the Holder, the "Subject Securities") set forth on the signature

As a condition of its entering into the Merger Agreement, Total has
requested the Holder to agree, and the Holder has agreed, to enter into this

AGREEMENT
NOW, THEREFORE, the parties hereto, intending to be legally bound
hereby, agree as follows:
1. Agreement to Vote Shares. Prior to the Termination Date (as
hereinafter defined), at every meeting of the stockholders of the Company called
with respect to any of the following, and at every adjournment thereof, and on
every action or approval by written consent of the stockholders of the Company
with respect to any of the following, the Holder shall vote all Subject
Securities that are voting securities and that it beneficially owns at the time
of any such vote: (i) in favor of approval of the issuance and delivery of the
shares of Company Common Stock to the stockholders of Total in the Merger and
(ii) against (x) any merger, consolidation, sale of assets requiring stockholder
approval, reorganization or recapitalization of the Company, with any other
person other than Total or its affiliates, and (y) any liquidation or winding up
of the Company (each of the foregoing in this clause (ii) is hereinafter
referred to as an "Opposing Proposal").
2. Transfer of Securities. From and after the date hereof until the
conclusion of the meeting at which the Company's stockholders vote on the
approval of the issuance and delivery of the shares of Company Common Stock to
the stockholders of Total in the Merger and the Holder votes in favor of such
issuance and delivery (the "Meeting Date"), the Holder will not effect a tender,
sale, exchange, pledge, disposition or other transfer or encumbrance (any of the
foregoing, a "Sale") of any of the Subject Securities to or in favor of any
person, unless, prior to
any such Sale, such person shall have agreed in a writing, in form and substance
reasonably acceptable to Total, for the benefit of and delivered to Total, to be
bound by all provisions of this Agreement applicable to the Holder. Following
the Meeting Date, the Holder shall not consummate a Sale to or in favor of any
person, unless prior to any such Sale, such person shall have agreed in writing,
in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Total, for the benefit of and
delivered to Total, to be bound by the provisions of this Agreement. The
foregoing and any other provision of this Agreement notwithstanding, Holder may
effect a Sale of up to shares of Company Common Stock without compliance with
the provisions of this Section 3, and following such Sale, such transferred
shares will no longer be subject to the provisions of Section 1 of this
Agreement.
3. No Ownership Interest. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall
be deemed to vest in Total any direct or indirect ownership or incidents of
ownership of or with respect to the Subject Securities. All rights, ownership
and economic benefits of and relating to the Subject Securities shall remain and
belong to Holder, and Total shall have no authority to manage, direct,
superintend, restrict, regulate, govern or administer any of the policies or
operations of the Company or exercise any power or authority to direct the
Holder in the voting of any of the Subject Securities, except as otherwise
expressly provided herein.
4. Certain Representations of the Holder. The Holder represents and
warrants to Total as follows:
(a) Authorization. The Holder has the power to execute, deliver and
perform this Agreement, and has taken all necessary action to authorize the
execution, delivery and performance by it of this Agreement. This Agreement has
been duly executed and delivered by the Holder and, assuming due and valid
authorization, execution and delivery by Total, constitutes a valid and binding
obligation of the Holder, enforceable against the Holder in accordance with its
terms (except as such enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy,
insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent conveyance or other similar
laws and principles now or hereafter in effect, affecting creditors' rights
generally).
(b) Governmental Authorization. The execution, delivery and
performance by the Holder of this Agreement and the consummation by the holder
of the transactions contemplated hereby do not require the Holder to obtain any
consent of, or to make any filing with, any Governmental Entity other than: (i)
compliance with any applicable requirements of Xxxx-Xxxxx; (ii) compliance with
any applicable requirements of the Exchange Act; and (iii) such other consents
and filings which, if not obtained or made, would not have a material adverse
effect on the ability of the Holder to consummate the transactions contemplated
hereby or the ability of the parties to consummate the Merger Agreement.
(c) Non-Contravention. The execution, delivery and performance by
the Holder of this Agreement and the consummation by the Holder of the
transactions contemplated hereby do not and will not, (i) contravene or conflict
with any organizational document of the Holder, (ii) contravene or conflict
with, or constitute a violation of, any provision of any law, regulation,
judgment, injunction, order or decree binding upon the Holder or any of its
properties or assets, (iii) with or without the giving of notice or passage of
time or both, constitute a breach or default under any agreement, contract or
other instrument binding upon the Holder or, to the
2
Holder's knowledge, the Company, or (iv) result in the creation or imposition of
any Liens on the Subject Securities, except with respect to the foregoing
clauses (ii), (iii) or (iv), such contraventions, conflicts, violations,
breaches, defaults or Liens which would not, individually or in the aggregate,
be reasonably likely to materially and adversely effect the ability of the

of the Company.
