        3. Lock-up Agreement.

 

             (a) In consideration of the issuance of common stock of Parent in

exchange for the Subject Shares (the "PARENT SHARES") to each of the

Stockholders pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, and of other good

and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby

acknowledged, and not withstanding any registration on the part of the Parent

Shares under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, each Stockholder agrees

that, during the period beginning from the Effective Time (as defined in the

Merger Agreement) and continuing for one (1) year thereafter (the "RELEASE

DATE"), each Stockholder will not (a) offer, sell, contract to sell, pledge,

grant any option to purchase, make any short sale or otherwise dispose of any

Parent Shares, or (b) engage directly or indirectly in any transaction the

likely result of which would involve a transaction prohibited by clause (a),

except each case as permitted by Section 3(e) below.

 

            (b) The foregoing restriction is expressly agreed to preclude each

of the Stockholders from engaging in any hedging or other transaction which is

designed to, or reasonably expected to lead to, or result in, a sale or

disposition of the Parent Shares even if such shares would be disposed of by

someone other than the Stockholders. Such prohibited hedging or other

transactions would include without limitation any short sale or any purchase,

sale or grant of any right (including without limitation any put or call option)

with respect to any of the Parent Shares or with respect to any security that

includes, relates to, or derives any significant part of its value from the

Parent Shares.

undersigned has not taken and will not take, directly or indirectly, any action

security of Parent to facilitate the sale or resale of the Parent Shares, or

which has otherwise constituted or will constitute any prohibited bid for or

purchase of the Parent Shares or any related securities.

 

            (d) Each Stockholder acknowledges and agrees that, pending the

Release Date, any additional Parent Shares acquired by such Stockholder upon

exercise of Replacement Stock Options (as defined in the Merger Agreement) may

not be sold or otherwise transferred notwithstanding that a registration

statement on Form S-8 or Form S-4 may be effective with respect to the exercise

of such options and the sale of Parent Shares obtained thereby.

 

            (e) Notwithstanding the foregoing restrictions on transfer, each

Stockholder may transfer the Parent Shares (i) in an amount not to exceed 35% of

the total amount of Parent Shares received by such Stockholder pursuant to the

Merger; provided however that such Parent Shares may not be transferred unless

the Parent Shares are registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended,

or (ii) as transfers by will or intestacy, or (iii) to any trust for the direct

or indirect benefit of any of the Stockholder or the immediate family of such

Stockholder; provided that any such transfer shall not involve a disposition for

value. For purposes of this letter agreement, "immediate family" shall mean any

relationship by blood, marriage or adoption, not more remote than first cousin.

the preceding paragraph (e), at all times prior to the Release Date will have,

good and marketable title to the Parent Shares still owned by him, free and

clear of all liens, encumbrances, and claims whatsoever. Each of the

Stockholders agrees and consents to the entry of stop transfer instructions with
