knowledge, is a customer of the Business conducted by the Company at any time
during such one-year period commencing on the Closing Date (subject to the

that are disparaging or derogatory concerning the Company or its business,
reputation or prospects; (B) request, suggest, influence or cause any party,
directly or indirectly, to cease doing business with or to reduce its business
with the Company or do or say anything which could reasonably be expected to

    2.           Confidentiality.  Each
Principal Stockholder acknowledges that the intangible property and all other
confidential or proprietary information with respect to the Business of the
Company are valuable, special and unique assets of Company.  Boone and

agree that from and after the Closing without a termination date, that they
shall not disclose, directly or indirectly, to any Person, or use or purport to

proprietary information of, about or pertaining to the Business, and any other
confidential or proprietary information and material relating to any customer,
vendor, licensor, licensee, or other party in connection with the Business; and
(d) any other confidential or propriety information which such Principal
Stockholder acquired or developed in connection with or as a result of his being
a shareholder, officer, director, employee, agent or representative of the
Company, excepting in each instance (a) – (d) only such information as (i) is
already known to the public or which may become known to the public without any
fault of such Principal Stockholder in violation of any confidentiality
restrictions, or (ii) (A) was available to such Principal Stockholder (prior to
its delivery to such Principal Stockholder by the Company) or (B) becomes

non-confidential basis from a Person other than the Company who is not otherwise
bound by a confidentiality agreement with respect to such information or is
otherwise prohibited from transmitting the information to such Principal
Stockholder, or (C) can be proven to have been independently developed by such
Principal Stockholder without reference to such information.

     

    3.           Representations and
Warranties.  In order to induce Purchaser to enter into this

Stockholder in connection with and to facilitate the consummation of the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement, the Merger Agreement and the Escrow

exclusive agent and attorney-in-fact to act on behalf of each Principal
Stockholder, for the following purposes and with the following powers and
authority:

    


    
      	
               
      

            	
              (i)

            	
              in
      the event of an amendment to the Merger Agreement which is approved by the
      Board of Directors of the Company, to confirm to the Purchaser that this
      Agreement, the Option Agreement and, to the extent any Stockholder consent
      is required therefor, that the consents of the Principal Stockholders in
      the Company Stockholders’ Consents remain in full force and effect;
      and

            


    

     

    
      	
               
      

            	
              (ii)

            	
              to
      execute and deliver such immaterial modifications or waivers in connection
      with this Agreement or, to the extent any Stockholder consent is required,
      the Merger Agreement or the Escrow
Agreement.

            


    

     

    7.           Miscellaneous.

     

    (a)         Continuing Obligations; Equitable
Remedies.  The restrictions set forth in Sections 1 and 2 are
considered by the parties to be reasonable for the purposes of protecting the
value of the business and goodwill of the Surviving Corporation (after giving
effect to the transactions contemplated by the Merger) and each Principal
Stockholder acknowledges that the Purchaser and the Surviving Corporation would
be irreparably harmed and that monetary damages would not provide an adequate
remedy to the Purchaser in the event the covenants contained in Sections 1 and 2
were not complied with in accordance with their terms.  The Principal
Stockholders agree that any breach by such Principal Stockholder of any
provision of Sections 1 or 2 shall entitle the Purchaser and, after the Closing,
the Surviving Corporation to an injunction, specific performance and other
equitable relief to secure the enforcement of these provisions, in addition to
any other remedies (including damages) which may be available to the Purchaser
and the Surviving Corporation.  If any of the Principal Stockholders
or any of their respective Affiliates, heirs and personal and legal
representatives breaches the covenants set forth in Section 1, the one-year
period from the Closing Date described therein during which such restrictions
apply shall be extended for a period equal to the period that a court having
jurisdiction has determined that such covenant has been breached.  It
is the desire and intent of the parties that the provisions of Sections 1 and 2
be enforced to the fullest extent permissible under the laws and public policies
of each jurisdiction in which enforcement is sought.  If any
provisions of Section 1 or 2 relating to the time period, scope of activities or
geographic area of restrictions is declared by a court of competent jurisdiction
to exceed the maximum permissible time period, scope of activities or geographic
area, as the case may be, the time period, scope of activities or geographic
area shall be reduced to the maximum which such court deems
enforceable.  If any provisions of Section 1 or 2 other than those
described in the preceding sentence are adjudicated to be invalid or
unenforceable, the invalid or unenforceable provisions shall be deemed amended
(with respect only to the jurisdiction in which such adjudication is made) in
such manner as to render them enforceable and to effectuate as nearly as
possible the original intentions and agreement of the parties.

     

    (b)         Public
Announcement.  No public announcement or other publicity
regarding this Agreement, the Merger Agreement or the transactions contemplated
hereby and thereby shall be made prior to or after the date hereof without the
prior written consent of Company and Purchaser as to form, content, timing and
manner of distribution.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in
this Agreement shall preclude any party or its Affiliates from making any public
announcement or filing required pursuant to any federal or state securities law,
rule or regulation.

the party that drafted it is of no application and is hereby expressly
waived.
