any covenant, representation or warranty or any other obligation or agreement of
Acquiror under or with respect to, the Merger, the Merger Agreement or any of
the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement.
2. Covenants. The Stockholder agrees with respect to himself and the
Shares he owns that:
(a) He shall not, except consistent with the terms of this

disposition), or consent to any transfer of, any or all of the Shares
or any interest therein, (ii) enter into any contract, option or other
agreement or understanding with respect to any transfer of any or all

would in any way restrict, limit or interfere with the performance of
his or its obligations hereunder or the transactions contemplated
hereby, or (iv) grant any proxies or powers of attorney with respect to
any of the Shares, deposit any Shares into a voting trust or enter into
a voting agreement with respect to such Shares. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the Stockholder may transfer his or its Shares if such
transferee becomes a party to and bound by all of the terms of this
Agreement.
(b) He will not enter into any transaction, take any action,
or directly or indirectly cause any event to occur that would result in

Acquiror Common Stock.
(b) This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by the
Stockholder and constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of
the Stockholder, enforceable against the Stockholder in accordance with
its terms. Neither the execution and delivery of this Agreement nor the
consummation by the Stockholder of the transactions contemplated hereby
will result in a violation of, or a default under, or conflict with,
any contract, trust, commitment, agreement, understanding, arrangement
or restriction of any kind to which the Stockholder is a party or bound
or to which the Shares are subject which would materially impair the
ability of the Stockholder to perform hereunder. Consummation by the
Stockholder of the transactions contemplated hereby will not violate,
or require any consent, approval, or notice under, any provision of any
judgment, order, decree, statute, law, rule or regulation applicable to
the Stockholder or the Shares, except for any filing under the
Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended, and
the filing of an amendment to the Schedules 13D, if any, filed by the
Stockholder with respect to the Acquiror Common Stock.
(c) The Shares owned by him and the certificates representing
such Shares are now and at all times during the term hereof will be
held by the Stockholder or by a nominee or custodian for his benefit,
free and clear of all liens, claims, security interests, proxies,
voting trusts or agreements, understandings or arrangements or any
other encumbrances whatsoever, except for any such encumbrances or
proxies arising hereunder.
(d) No broker, investment banker, financial adviser or other
person is entitled to any broker's, finder's, financial adviser's or
other similar fee or commission in connection with the transactions
contemplated hereby based upon arrangements made by or on behalf of
such Stockholder.
4. Certain Events. The Stockholder agrees that
<PAGE>
this Agreement and the obligations hereunder shall attach to the Shares owned by
him and shall be binding upon any person or entity to which legal or beneficial
ownership of such Shares shall pass, whether by operation of law or otherwise,
including without limitation such person's heirs, guardians, administrators or
successors. In the event of any stock split, stock dividend, merger,
reorganization, recapitalization or other change in the capital structure of the
Company affecting the Acquiror Common Stock, or the acquisition of additional
shares of Acquiror Common Stock by the Stockholder, this Agreement and the
obligations hereunder shall attach to any additional shares of Acquiror Common
Stock or other voting securities of the Company issued to or acquired by the
Stockholder. In the event of a stock dividend or distribution, or any change in
Acquiror Common Stock by reason of any stock dividend, split-up,
recapitalization, combination, exchange of shares or the like, the term "Shares"
shall be deemed to refer to and include the Shares as well as all such stock
dividends and distributions and any shares into which or for which any or all of
the Shares may be changed or exchanged.
5. Specific Enforcement of Voting Agreement. The Stockholder expressly
acknowledges that damages alone will not be adequate remedy for any breach by
the Stockholder of this Agreement and that Acquiror, in addition to any other
remedies it may have, will be entitled as a matter of right, to injunctive
relief, including specific performance, in any court of competent jurisdiction
with respect to any actual or threatened breach by the Stockholder of the
provisions of this Agreement.
