     H. Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined herein shall have the respective
meanings ascribed to them in the Securities Purchase Agreement, as amended pursuant to the First
Amendment and Exchange Agreement and Second Amendment and Exchange Agreement.



     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the covenants, promises and representations set forth
herein, the parties agree as follows:

may possess under the Transaction Documents.



     1.5 Waiver of Rights. Effective as of the Redemption Agreement Effective Date until

Article IV hereof, the Investor hereby waives any right it may have under the Second Amended and
Restated Note and Second Amended and Restated Warrant that may arise in connection with any of the
transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, including, without limitation, under Section 5
of the Second Amended and Restated Note and Section 4 of the Second Amended and Restated Warrant.



     1.6 Conversion and Exercise; Restrictions on Transfer. The Investor hereby agrees
that, unless and until this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Article IV hereof, it will not
convert or exercise all or any portion of the Second Amended and Restated Note or Second Amended

discharges the Company, and each of its officers, directors, agents, employees, shareholders,

actions, causes of action or suits of any kind or nature whatsoever, whether known or unknown,
suspected or unsuspected, which the Investor Parties ever had, now have or may in the future have
against the Company Parties arising out of, related to or in connection with the Second Amended and

provided, however, that the Investor Parties shall not be estopped by




6









 







virtue of this Section 5.1(a) from asserting any cause of action arising from a breach of this

the Investor Parties from any and all liabilities, claims, demands, actions, causes of action or

however, that the Company Parties shall not be estopped by virtue of this Section 5.1(b)
from asserting any cause of action arising from a breach of this Agreement, or any of its terms
covenants, representations or warranties.




          (c) Waiver. Each of the Company and the Investor hereby waives any and all rights and
benefits conferred by the provisions of Section 1542 of the Civil Code of the State of California
or any similar law of any state or territory of the United States or other jurisdiction. Each
party acknowledges that it is familiar with Section 1542 of the Civil Code of the State of
California, which provides as follows: A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS WHICH THE
CREDITOR DOES NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN HIS FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE, WHICH
IF KNOWN BY HIM MUST HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR.




     5.2 Survival. The representations, warranties and covenants given by the Company and
the Investor that are contained in this Agreement shall survive the Redemption.



     5.3 Further Assurances. Each party to this Agreement shall execute all instruments
and documents and take all actions as may reasonably be necessary to effectuate this Agreement and
the transactions contemplated hereby.



     5.4 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in several counterparts (including
by means of separate signature pages, which may be attached hereto) by one or more of the parties,
each of which shall be deemed an original, and all of said counterparts (and signature pages) shall
be deemed to constitute or be part of one and the same instrument. One or more counterparts of
this Agreement may be delivered by facsimile or electronically with the intention that delivery by
such means shall have the same effect as delivery of an original counterpart thereof.



     5.5 Non-Reliance. Except for the representations and warranties contained herein, the
Company has not made and shall not be deemed to make any representation or warranty to the
Investor, express or implied, at law or in equity, regarding the Company, the transactions
contemplated by the Merger Agreement, or otherwise.



     5.6 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is prohibited by law or
otherwise determined to be invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, the
provision that would otherwise be prohibited, invalid or unenforceable shall be deemed amended to
apply to the broadest extent that it would be valid and enforceable, and the invalidity or
unenforceability



7









 




of such provision shall not affect the validity of the remaining provisions of this Agreement
so long as this Agreement as so modified continues to express, without material change, the
original intentions of the parties as to the subject matter hereof and the prohibited nature,
invalidity or unenforceability of the provision(s) in question does not substantially impair the
respective expectations or reciprocal obligations of the parties or the practical realization of
the benefits that would otherwise be conferred upon the parties. The parties will endeavor in good
faith negotiations to replace the prohibited, invalid or unenforceable provision(s) with a valid
provision(s), the effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the prohibited, invalid or
unenforceable provision(s).




     5.7 No Waiver. No delay on the part of any party in exercising any right, power or
privilege under this Agreement shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial
exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder preclude other or further exercise thereof, or
the exercise of any other right, power or privilege.



     5.8 Entire Agreement; No Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement constitutes the
entire agreement of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior
agreements, arrangements and understandings between or among the parties hereto (whether written or
oral) with respect to the subject matter hereof. Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is
intended to confer on any person, other than the parties hereto or their respective successors, any
rights, remedies, obligations or liabilities.



     5.9 Governing Law. All issues and questions concerning the construction, validity,
interpretation and enforceability of this Agreement shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware without reference to the choice of law principles
thereof.



     5.10 Enforcement. The parties hereby declare that it is impossible to measure in
money the damages which will accrue to a party hereto by reason of a failure to perform any of the
obligations under this Agreement and that a breach hereof shall cause irreparable injury and, in
addition to any other right or remedy available to the parties hereto at law or in equity, any
injured party hereunder shall be entitled to enforcement by temporary or permanent court injunction
or specific performance of the obligations hereunder, without the necessity for posting a bond.
Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, nothing herein shall be construed as prohibiting any
injured party hereunder from also pursuing any other rights or remedies for such breach or
threatened breach, including receiving damages and attorneys’ fees. The election of any remedy
shall not be construed as a waiver on the part of any injured party hereunder of any rights such
party might otherwise have at law or in equity, which rights and remedies shall be cumulative.



     5.11 Successors and Assigns; Assignment. All of the terms, covenants and conditions
of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their
respective legal successors and permitted assigns. No party hereto shall be permitted to assign
its rights under this Agreement except with the written consent of the other parties hereto;
provided, however, that the Company may assign and delegate to GCA all of the Company’s rights and
obligations hereunder.

     5.12 Headings; Exhibits. The headings or other subdivisions in this Agreement are
intended solely for convenience or reference and shall be given no effect in the construction or
interpretation of this Agreement. The exhibits attached hereto are deemed incorporated herein by
reference.



     5.13 Other Investors. In connection with this Agreement, the Company represents and
warrants that none of the terms offered to the Other Investors (other than reimbursement of fees
and expenses) is more favorable to such Other Investors than those of the Investor and this waiver
shall be, without any further action by the Investor or the Company, deemed amended and modified in
an economically and legally equivalent manner such that the Investor shall receive the benefit of
the more favorable terms contained the Redemption Agreements with the Other Investors, as amended
from time to time. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company agrees, at its expense, to take such
other actions (such as entering into amendments to this Agreement) as the Investor may reasonably
request to further effectuate the foregoing.
