of this Agreement pursuant to Section 4.1 hereof (the "Term"), at every time as

Seller convenes a meeting of, or otherwise seeks a vote of, Seller's

shareholders with respect to the following, each Shareholder hereby agrees to

vote, or cause to be voted, to the extent not voted by Purchaser as appointed by

established by Seller for the purposes of determining those shareholders of

Seller entitled to vote on such matters (the "Record Date"):

     (a) in favor of the approval and adoption of the Merger Agreement and the

approval of the Merger and the transactions contemplated by the Merger

Agreement;

     (b) against approval of any proposal made in opposition to, or in

competition with, the Merger and the transactions contemplated by the Merger

Agreement; and

     (c) against any actions (other than those actions that relate to the Merger

and the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement) that are intended to,

or could be reasonably expected to, impair the ability of Seller to consummate

the Merger or otherwise impede, interfere with, delay, postpone, discourage or

adversely affect the consummation of the Merger in accordance with the terms of

the Merger Agreement.

Each Shareholder further agrees not to enter into any agreement or understanding

with any person to vote or give instructions in any manner inconsistent with or

violative of the terms of this Section 2.1.

resubstitution, at any time during the Term, as its true and lawful

attorneys-in-fact and proxies (its "Proxy"), for and in its name, place and

stead, to vote such Shareholder's Subject Shares held as of the Record Date as

its Proxy, at every annual, special, adjourned or postponed meeting of the

shareholders of Seller called for purposes of considering whether to approve the

Merger Agreement or any of the other transactions or matters contemplated by, or

directly or indirectly affecting, the Merger Agreement or to execute a written

consent of shareholders in lieu of any such meeting. Each Shareholder

understands and acknowledges that Purchaser and Sub have entered into the Merger

Agreement in reliance upon each Shareholder's execution and delivery of this

Agreement. The parties agree that by reason of the Merger Agreement, the Proxy

is a proxy coupled with an interest. At Purchaser's request, each Shareholder

will perform such further acts and execute such further documents as may be

required to vest in Purchaser or its Representatives the sole power to vote

Shareholder's Subject Shares with respect to the matters set forth in Section

2.1 during the Term in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.
