further demand for additional collateral, or notice of sale or purchase, or
other notice or advertisement. Any such sales or purchases may be made at your
discretion on any exchange or other market where such business is usually
transacted, or at public auction or private sale; and you may be the purchaser

or notice as herein provided.

     The undersigned shall at all times be liable for the payment upon demand of
any debit balance or other obligations owing in any of the accounts of the

regulations. In connection with such securities loans, and in connection with
securities loans made to me to facilitate short sales, you may receive and

such election. Judgment upon the award of arbitrators may be entered in any

nor seek to enforce any predispute arbitration agreement against any person who
has initiated in court a putative class action, or who is a member of a putative
class who has not opted out of the class with respect to any claims encompassed
by the putative class action until: (i) the class certification is denied; (ii)
the class is decertified; or (iii) the customer is excluded from the class by
the court. Such forbearance to enforce an agreement to arbitrate shall not
constitute a waiver of any rights under this agreement except to the extent
stated herein.

                                        Agent on the Termination Date based on
                                        one of the following three scenarios (as
                                        applicable):

                                        Scenario 1:

                                        If the Final Price is less than the
                                        Floor Price then:

                                                    1

                                        Scenario 2:

                                             If the Final Price is greater than
                                             the Cap Price, then:

                                             Floor Price + ((Final  Price -
                                             Cap Price) x (1 - Participation
                                             Percentage)) / Final Price

                                        Scenario 3:

                                             If the Final Price is greater than
                                             Floor Price and less than the Cap
                                             Price, then:

                                             Floor Price / Final Price

Cash Settlement:                        If the Cash Settlement Amount is a
                                        positive number, MLI will pay the Cash
                                        Settlement Amount to Counterparty. If
                                        the Cash Settlement Amount is a negative
                                        number, Counterparty will pay the
                                        absolute value of the Cash Settlement
                                        Amount to MLI. Such amounts will be paid
                                        on the Settlement Date.

                                        Cash Settlement Amount:

                                        An amount determined by the Calculation
                                        Agent on the Termination Date based on
                                        the following formula:

                                             MLI Settlement Obligation -
                                             Counterparty Cash Settlement
                                             Amount;

                                                  Where,

                                                  "Counterparty Cash Settlement
                                                  Amount" means:

                                             Counterparty Settlement Shares x
                                             Final Price

Buyer Early Termination:                Upon the occurrence of an Event of
                                        Default, Termination Event or a Stock
                                        Borrow Event, MLI shall have the right
                                        to cause immediate settlement of this
                                        transaction.

                                        thereafter continually maintain with MLI
                                        or its custodian ("Custodian") during
                                        the Term of this Transaction, 3,000,000
                                        Shares and a stock transfer power
                                        related thereto (such Shares, the
                                        "Collateral").

                                        Counterparty represents that (i) it is
                                        the legal and record owner of all
                                        Collateral free of all liens, claims,
                                        equities, and encumbrances, (ii) it has
                                        the power and has obtained all of the
                                        necessary consents and approvals to
                                        grant to MLI a legal, valid, binding and
                                        enforceable first priority security
                                        interest in, and lien on, the Collateral
                                        and (iii) the pledge of the Collateral
                                        to MLI hereunder shall not breach any
                                        covenant in any agreement or contract
                                        entered into by Counterparty or any
                                        Affiliate thereof. Throughout the term
                                        of this transaction, Counterparty hereby
                                        grants MLI a first-priority security
                                        interest in, and a first-priority lien
                                        on, the Collateral for its obligations
                                        under this Transaction and the
                                        Agreement; provided, however, that if
                                        any Counterparty Loan is outstanding at
                                        any time from and including the Trade
                                        Date to but excluding the third exchange
                                        business day immediately following the
                                        Effective Date, MLI's security interest
                                        will be subordinate to any security
                                        interest and/or lien on the Collateral
                                        granted in favor of MLPFS in connection
                                        with such Counterparty Loan.

                                        Notwithstanding Section 9-207 of the New
                                        York Uniform Commerical Code, MLI will
                                        have the right to (i) sell, pledge,
                                        rehypothecate, assign, invest, use,
                                        commingle or otherwise dispose of, or
                                        otherwise use in its business, any
                                        Collateral it holds free from any claim
                                        or right of any nature whatsoever of

                                        right of redemption by Counterparty
                                        ("Use of Collateral"), provided that MLI
                                        shall not have Use of Collateral five
                                        exchange business days
