Acquired Company is guarantor of the Notes pursuant to that certain Guaranty
dated as of December 31, 2007 by and between the Acquired Company and Lender
(the “Guaranty”);

    


    WHEREAS,
the Company wishes to sell the Shares to Purchaser and the Purchaser wishes to
purchase the Shares (the “Acquisition”) from the Company free
and clear of any and all obligations to Lender, including without limitation
those pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement, in order to acquire the
Retained Assets and Retained Liabilities, as each such term is defined
on  Exhibit A annexed hereto,
pursuant to the terms of a Stock Purchase Agreement, substantially in the form
of Exhibit B annexed hereto (the “Stock Purchase
Agreement”);

    


    WHEREAS, each of the Company, the
Acquired Company and the Lender desire to facilitate the transactions
contemplated by the Stock Purchase Agreement, and, subject to the terms hereof,
approve the sale of the Acquired Company to Purchaser, terminate the pledge of
the Shares under the Pledge Agreement, release any and all Retained Assets as
collateral under the Notes, terminate the
Guaranty, and along with the Purchaser,
terminate the Intercreditor Agreement;

    


    NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable
consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, and
pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, the Lender, the Company and
the Purchaser agree as follows:

     

    1.           Representations of Lender.
Lender represents and warrants to Purchaser
that (i) Lender owns all of the outstanding Notes issued under the Securities
Purchase Agreement, and (ii) Lender has full right and authority, without
consent or action of any other person, to take the actions set forth
herein.

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        
        

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

     

    2.           Payment of Purchase
Price.  The Purchaser and the
Company hereby agree that $2,546,069.30 of the Purchase Price (the “Specified Sale Proceeds”) shall be paid at the closing of the Acquisition as
follows:  (i) $1,800,000 to the Lender in accordance with the wire
instructions set forth in Section 1 on Exhibit C hereto; (ii) $100,000 to
Schulte Roth & Zabel LLP, in payment of legal fees in accordance with the
wire instructions set forth in Section 2 on Exhibit C hereto; and (iii)
$646,069.30 into the blocked account of the Company, in accordance with the wire
instructions set forth in Section 3 on Exhibit C hereto.

     

    3.           Approval and Acceptance;
Covenants
Related to Challenge of Transactions.  The Lender, on its own
behalf and as a Collateral Agent under the Transaction Documents, has fully reviewed the Stock Purchase Agreement, the
Bill of Sale and Assignment by and between the Company and the Acquired Company,
dated as of the date hereof, Assignment and Assumption of Assigned Contracts
Agreement,  by and between the Company and the Acquired Company, dated
as of the date hereof, and all related documents and agreements (collectively,
the “Stock Purchase
Documents”), and hereby approves,
accepts and consents to the sale of the Acquired Company and the transfer of the Retained Assets and Retained
Liabilities pursuant to the terms of the Stock Purchase Documents. Lender has
determined that the purchase price set forth in the Stock Purchase Documents
(the “Purchase
Price”), giving due consideration to the
assumption of certain liabilities by Purchaser and other non-cash consideration,
is reasonably equivalent value and represents fair consideration for the
purchase of the Shares of the Acquired Company and all assets being purchased
thereby (including without limitation the Retained Assets) net of all Retained
Liabilities.  Lender hereby covenants, now and forever, to refrain
from challenging or contesting in any manner, in any forum, including without
limitation a bankruptcy proceeding, that the Purchase Price is reasonably
equivalent value and represents fair consideration for the purchase of the
Shares and all assets being purchased thereby (including without limitation the
Retained Assets) net of all Retained Liabilities.

     

    4.           Release of Obligations and Collateral;
Delivery of Possessory Collateral.  Upon (i) satisfaction of
all closing conditions by the Company and the Purchaser under the Stock Purchase
Agreement, including without limitation, the receipt by the Company of the
Purchase Price and (ii) the receipt of the Specified Sale Proceeds in accordance
with the terms hereof; automatically and without
any further action by the parties to this Agreement, Lender agrees that: (x) all
obligations of the Acquired Company under the Securities Purchase Agreement, the
Notes, the Guaranty and the other Transaction Documents and (y) all
security interests and other liens, rights of set
off against, and pledges in favor of, granted to or held by Lender in or against the Acquired Company, including without
limitation the Retained Assets (but excluding any lien of the Lender in the
proceeds received by the Company as consideration for the sale of the Shares and
the Retained Assets), the Shares, including without limitation, under the
Securities Purchase Agreement, the Guaranty, the Notes, the Pledge Agreement,
the Security Agreement or the other Transaction Documents shall each be
deemed forever satisfied, automatically terminated
and released.  The Lender agrees in furtherance thereof, at the
expense of the Company, to deliver to Purchaser any certificates evidencing the
Shares previously delivered to the Lender and such other possessory collateral
that Lender or its agents may have in its possession related to the assets of
the Acquired Company (including without limitation the Retained Assets) and the
Shares and shall be relieved of all responsibility for any such possessory
collateral upon surrender thereof.  Lender hereby authorizes the
Company and the Purchaser to prepare and file any and all releases and
terminations necessary to terminate any and all UCC financing statements or
other documents filed against the Acquired Company (including without limitation
the Retained Assets) by or on behalf of the Lender.  For the
avoidance of doubt, Lender shall continue to have a valid and enforceable lien
on and security interest in all proceeds received by the Company in connection
with the Acquisition, including without limitation, the Specified Sale Proceeds,
in accordance with the Security Agreement and the Pledge
Agreement.  The Company acknowledges that Lender's liens on and
security interests in all such proceeds
continue to be valid and enforceable.
