        1.    Amendments to the Stockholders Agreement.    Pursuant to Section 8.6 of the Agreement, the definition of
"Registrable Executive Shares" contained in Section 4.1 of the Agreement is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following: 

        "Registrable Executive Shares" means the shares of Common Stock, and any shares of Common Stock issued or issuable with respect to vested
options to purchase shares of Common Stock, owned by an Executive on the date hereof or subsequently acquired by any Executive Party (and any securities issued or issuable with respect to such Common

        4.    Counterparts.    This Amendment may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an
original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. 

        5.    Termination.    This Amendment shall be null and void if an underwritten primary registered offering is not
consummated on behalf of the Company on or prior to August 31, 2004. Notwithstanding any provision therein to the contrary, that certain Amendment No. 2 to the Second Amended and
Restated Stockholders Agreement dated as of April 14, 2004 shall remain in full force and effect until this Amendment becomes null and void, if at all, pursuant to this Section 5.
