   canceled in accordance with Section 2.6(a) and other than Dissenting Shares)
   shall be converted at the Effective Time into the right to receive an amount
   in cash, without interest, equal to the quotient of (i) (1) $175,000,000 (the
   "Merger Consideration"), plus (2) the Closing Cash, plus (3) the Aggregate
   Exercise Price, plus (4) the Transaction Tax Benefit, plus (5) the amount, if
   any, by which the Estimated Net Working Capital Amount exceeds the Targeted
   Net Working Capital Amount, less the sum of (x) Unpaid Company Transaction
   Expenses, plus (y) all Closing Debt, plus (z) the amount, if any, by which
   the Targeted Net Working Capital Amount exceeds the Estimated Net Working
   Capital Amount, divided by (ii) the Fully Diluted Common Number (such result,
   the "Per Share Common Merger Consideration"). All such shares of Company
   Common Stock, when so converted, shall no longer be outstanding and shall
   automatically be canceled and retired, and each holder of a Company
   Certificate representing any such shares of Company Common Stock, as
   applicable, shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the
   right to receive the Per Share Common Merger Consideration with respect to
   such shares of Company Common Stock.

(c) Each share of Company Preferred Stock issued and outstanding immediately
   prior to the Effective Time (other than Dissenting Shares) shall be converted
   at the Effective Time into the right to receive an amount in cash (adjusted
   to the nearest one-hundredth of a cent), without interest, equal to (i) the
   number of shares of Company Common Stock into which such share of Company
   Preferred Stock would have been convertible immediately prior to the
   Effective Time, multiplied by (ii) the Per Share Common Merger Consideration
   (the "Per Share Preferred Merger Consideration," and together with the Per
   Share Common Merger Consideration, the "Per Share Merger Consideration")).
   All such shares of Company Preferred Stock, when so converted, shall no
   longer be outstanding and shall automatically be canceled and retired, and
   each holder of a Company Certificate representing any such shares of Company
   Preferred Stock shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except
   the right to receive the Per Share Preferred Merger Consideration with
   respect to such shares of Company Preferred Stock.

(d) Each issued and outstanding share of the capital stock of Merger Sub shall
   be converted into and become as of the Effective Time one (1) fully paid and
   nonassessable share of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of the
   Surviving Corporation.

SECTION 2.7       Treatment of Company Options.

                  (a) Vested Company Options. At the Effective Time, each
Company Option that is vested and that has not been exercised prior to the
Effective Time shall be cancelled in consideration of payment to the holder
thereof (each, an "Optionholder") of an amount in cash equal to the product
obtained by multiplying (i) the aggregate number of shares of Company Common
Stock issuable upon the exercise of each unexercised vested Company Option held
by such Optionholder as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, by (ii) the
excess, if any, of (x) the Per Share Common Merger Consideration less (y) the
exercise price per share of such Company Option (such amount an "Option
Payment"). The Company shall take all necessary actions, including providing any
required notice to Optionholders, necessary to effect the transactions described
in this Section 2.7(a) pursuant to the terms of the Company Option Plan and any
agreement evidencing a vested Company Option.

                  (b) Unvested Company Options. Each unvested Company Option
shall be deemed vested as of the Effective Time and shall be treated as a vested
Company Option in accordance with Section 2.7(a).

SECTION 2.8       Post-Closing Merger Consideration Adjustment.

                  (a) Estimated Merger Consideration. Not later than three
Business Days before the Closing, the Company shall deliver to Parent and the
Equityholders' Representative a certificate of the Company (the "Company
Pre-Closing Certificate") executed on its behalf by the Chief Financial Officer
of the Company that sets forth in reasonable detail the Company's estimates of
the Company Net Working Capital Amount (the "Estimated Net Working Capital
Amount"), Closing Cash ("Estimated Closing Cash"), Closing Debt ("Estimated
Closing Debt") and Unpaid Company Transaction Expenses ("Estimated Unpaid
Company Transaction Expenses"), along with the supporting detail therefor, such
estimates to be prepared in accordance with GAAP, using the policies,
conventions, methodologies and procedures used by the Company in preparing the
Company Financial Statements, and the Company's estimate of the Transaction Tax
Benefit ("Estimated Transaction Tax Benefit") along with supporting detail
therefor, such estimate to be prepared in accordance with the Transaction Tax
Benefit Schedule. Prior to Closing, the Company and Parent shall cooperate in
good faith to agree upon the calculation of the Estimated Net Working Capital
Amount, Estimated Closing Cash, Estimated Closing Debt, Estimated Transaction
Tax Benefit and Estimated Unpaid Company Transaction Expenses upon which the Per
Share Merger Consideration to be paid at Closing shall be based; provided, that,
if the Company and Parent are unable to agree as to any item set forth on the
Company Pre-Closing Certificate, then the amount set forth as the Estimated Net
Working Capital Amount, Estimated Closing Cash, Estimated Closing Debt,
Estimated Transaction Tax Benefit or Estimated Unpaid Company Transaction
Expenses, as applicable, on the Company Pre-Closing Certificate shall be an
estimate of Estimated Net Working Capital Amount, Estimated Closing Cash,
Estimated Closing Debt, Estimated Transaction Tax Benefit or Estimated Unpaid
Company Transaction Expenses, as applicable, agreed to by the parties.

                  (b) Calculation. As promptly as practicable, but in no event
later than 45 days following the Closing Date, the Surviving Corporation shall,
at its expense, (i) cause to be prepared, in accordance with GAAP, using the
policies, conventions, methodologies and procedures used by the Company in
preparing the Company Financial Statements, an unaudited balance sheet of the
Company on or prior to the close of business on the day immediately preceding
the Closing Date, but which shall not reflect the transactions occurring at the
Closing (the "Closing Balance Sheet"), together with a statement (the "Closing
Date Schedule") setting forth in reasonable detail the Surviving Corporation's
calculation of the Closing Net Working Capital Amount, Closing Cash, Closing
Debt, Transaction Tax Benefit and Unpaid Company Transaction Expenses and (ii)
deliver to the Equityholders' Representative the Closing Balance Sheet and the
Closing Date Schedule, together with a certificate of the Surviving Corporation
executed on its behalf by its Chief Financial Officer confirming that the
Closing Balance Sheet and the Closing Date Schedule were properly prepared in
good faith and in accordance with GAAP, using the policies, conventions,
methodologies and procedures used by the Company in preparing the Company
Financial Statements and that the Transaction Tax Benefit was calculated in
accordance with the Transaction Tax Benefit Schedule.

                  (c) Review; Disputes.

                           (i) From and after the Effective Time, the Surviving
Corporation shall provide the Equityholders' Representative and any accountants
or advisors retained by the Equityholders' Representative with full access to
the books and records of the Surviving Corporation for the purposes of: (A)
enabling the Equityholders' Representative and its accountants and advisors to
calculate, and to review the Surviving Corporation's calculation of, the Closing
Net Working Capital Amount, Closing Cash, Closing Debt, Transaction Tax Benefit
and Unpaid Company Transaction Expenses; and (B) identifying any dispute related
to the calculation of any of the Closing Net Working Capital Amount, Closing
Cash, Closing Debt, Transaction Tax Benefit and Unpaid Company Transaction
Expenses in the Closing Date Schedule.

                           (ii) If the Equityholders' Representative disputes
the calculation of any of the Closing Net Working Capital Amount, Closing Cash,
Closing Debt, Transaction Tax Benefit or Unpaid Company Transaction Expenses set
forth in the Closing Date Schedule, then the Equityholders' Representative shall
deliver a written notice (a "Dispute Notice") to the Surviving Corporation and
the Escrow Agent at any time during the 40-day period commencing upon receipt by
the Equityholders' Representative of the Closing Balance Sheet, the Closing Date
Schedule and the related certificate of the Surviving Corporation's Chief
Financial Officer, all as prepared by the Surviving Corporation in accordance
with the requirements of Section 2.8(b) (subject to extension for any period of
inadequate access to the underlying records) (the "Review Period"). The Dispute
Notice shall set forth the basis for the dispute of any such calculation in
reasonable detail.

                           (iii) If the Equityholders' Representative does not
deliver a Dispute Notice to the Surviving Corporation prior to the expiration of
the Review Period, the Surviving Corporation's calculation of the Closing Net
Working Capital Amount, Closing Cash, Closing Debt, Transaction Tax Benefit and
Unpaid Company Transaction Expenses set forth in the Closing Date Schedule shall
be deemed final and binding on Parent, the Surviving Corporation, the
Equityholders' Representative and the Equityholders for all purposes of this
Agreement.

                           (iv) If the Equityholders' Representative delivers a
Dispute Notice to the Surviving Corporation prior to the expiration of the
Review Period, then the Equityholders' Representative and the Surviving
Corporation shall use commercially reasonable efforts to reach agreement on the
Closing Net Working Capital Amount, Closing Cash, Closing Debt, Transaction Tax
Benefit and Unpaid Company Transaction Expenses. If the Equityholders'
Representative and the Surviving Corporation are unable to reach agreement on
the Closing Net Working Capital Amount, Closing Cash, Closing Debt, Transaction
Tax Benefit and Unpaid Company Transaction Expenses within 30 days after the end
of the Review Period, either party shall have the right to refer such dispute to
an independent accountant of national standing reasonably acceptable to Parent
and Equityholders' Representative (such firm, or any successor thereto, being
referred to herein as the "Accounting Firm") after such 30th day. In connection
with the resolution of any such dispute by the Accounting Firm: (i) each of the
Surviving Corporation and the Equityholders' Representative shall have a
reasonable opportunity to meet with the Accounting Firm to provide their views
as to any disputed issues with respect to the calculation of any of the Closing
Net Working Capital Amount, Closing Cash, Closing Debt, Transaction Tax Benefit
and Unpaid Company Transaction Expenses; (ii) the Accounting Firm shall
determine the Closing Net Working Capital Amount, Closing Cash, Closing Debt,
Transaction Tax Benefit and Unpaid Company Transaction Expenses in accordance
with the terms of this Agreement within 30 days of such referral and upon
reaching such determination shall deliver a copy of its calculations (the
"Expert Calculations") to the Equityholders' Representative, Surviving
Corporation and the Escrow Agent; and (iii) the determination made by the
Accounting Firm of the Closing Net Working Capital Amount, Closing Cash, Closing
Debt, Transaction Tax Benefit and Unpaid Company Transaction Expenses shall be
final and binding on Parent, the Surviving Corporation, the Equityholders'
Representative and the Equityholders for all purposes of this Agreement, absent
manifest error. In calculating the Closing Net Working Capital Amount, Closing
Cash, Closing Debt, Transaction Tax Benefit and Unpaid Company Transaction
Expenses, the Accounting Firm (i) shall be limited to addressing any particular
disputes referred to in the Dispute Notice and (ii) such calculation shall, with
respect to any disputed item, be no greater than the higher amount calculated by
the Equityholders' Representative or the Surviving Corporation, and no lower
than the amount calculated by the Equityholders' Representative or the Surviving
Corporation, as the case may be. The Expert Calculations shall reflect in detail
the differences, if any, between the Closing Net Working Capital Amount, Closing
Cash, Closing Debt, Transaction Tax Benefit and Unpaid Company Transaction
Expenses reflected therein and the Closing Net Working Capital Amount, Closing
Cash, Closing Debt, Transaction Tax Benefit and Unpaid Company Transaction
Expenses set forth in the Closing Date Schedule. The fees and expenses of the
Accounting Firm shall be borne equally by the Surviving Corporation and the
Equityholders' Representative.

                  (d) Payment Upon Final Determination of Adjustments.

                  (i) If (A) the sum of the Closing Net Working Capital Amount,
Transaction Tax Benefit and Closing Cash, less Closing Debt and Unpaid Company
Transaction Expenses, as finally estimated in accordance with Section 2.8(a), is
less than (B) the sum of the Estimated Net Working Capital Amount, Estimated
Transaction Tax Benefit and Estimated Closing Cash, less Estimated Closing Debt
and Estimated Unpaid Company Transaction Expenses, as finally determined in
accordance with Section 2.8(c), by an amount greater than $100,000 then the
Surviving Corporation shall receive the amount of such deficiency (from dollar
one) first from the Adjustment Escrow Fund and then, to the extent necessary,
from the Indemnity Escrow Fund. For the avoidance of doubt, no payment shall be
made by Escrow Agent to the Surviving Corporation in the event that such
difference is not greater than $100,000.

                  (ii) If (A) the sum of the Closing Net Working Capital Amount,
Transaction Tax Benefit and Closing Cash, less Closing Debt and Unpaid Company
Transaction Expenses, as finally determined in accordance with Section 2.8(c),
is greater than (B) the sum of the Estimated Net Working Capital Amount,
Estimated Transaction Tax Benefit and Estimated Closing Cash, less Estimated
Closing Debt and Estimated Unpaid Company Transaction Expenses, as finally
estimated in accordance with Section 2.8(a), by an amount greater than $100,000,
then the Surviving Corporation shall, no later than three Business Days after
such determination (or, if such Equityholder has not exchanged such
Equityholder's Company Certificates pursuant to Article III, then upon such
exchange by such Equityholder), cause to be paid to each Equityholder by
delivery of immediately available funds to such Equityholder an amount equal to
the product of such excess (from dollar one) multiplied by such Equityholder's
Applicable Percentage. For the avoidance of doubt, no payment shall be made by
the Surviving Corporation to the Equityholders in the event that such difference
is not greater than $100,000.

                  (iii) To the extent that any amounts remain in the Adjustment
Escrow Fund after any payment to the Surviving Corporation pursuant to Section
2.8(d)(i) or to the Equityholders pursuant to Section 2.8(d)(ii), then such
remaining amount multiplied by the respective Equityholders' Applicable
Percentage shall immediately be released from the Adjustment Escrow Fund and
paid to the respective Equityholders.

                                  ARTICLE III.
                        EXCHANGE OF COMPANY CERTIFICATES

SECTION 3.1       Exchange of Company Certificates.

(a) Payment. At the Closing, (i) each Equityholder shall deliver to the
   Surviving Corporation for cancellation the stock certificates and/or
   agreements representing such Equityholder's shares of Company Capital Stock
   and Company Options (collectively, such Equityholder's "Company
   Certificates"), (ii) Parent shall, or shall cause the Surviving Corporation
   to pay the aggregate amount to be paid to Equityholders pursuant to Section
   2.6 and Section 2.7 to the account or accounts designated by the
   Equityholders' Representative by means of a wire transfer of immediately
   available funds, against delivery of a duly executed letter of transmittal,
   in a form agreed upon by Parent and the Company prior to the execution of
   this Agreement, and surrender of Company Certificates for cancellation,
   except that the sums of $500,000 (the "Adjustment Escrow Fund") and
   $8,750,000 (the "Indemnity Escrow Fund," and together with the Adjustment
   Escrow Fund, the "Escrow Fund") shall be deducted, pro rata in proportion to
   each Equityholder's Applicable Percentage, from such aggregate amount and
   delivered to the escrow agent mutually agreed upon by the Company and Parent
   prior to the Closing (the "Escrow Agent") to hold in accordance with the
   terms of the escrow agreement to be executed at Closing by Parent, the Escrow
   Agent and the Equityholders' Representative in substantially the form
   attached hereto as Exhibit B (the "Escrow Agreement"), and (iii) Parent
   shall, or shall cause the Surviving Corporation to deliver the Escrow Fund to
   the Escrow Agent pursuant to the Escrow Agreement. Without limiting the
   generality of the foregoing, upon the request of Parent, the Equityholders'
   Representative shall appoint a payment agent to which Parent shall make a
   lump sum payment in satisfaction of its obligations pursuant to Section 2.6
   and to facilitate the payment of Closing Debt and Company Transaction
   Expenses; provided, however, that all obligations pursuant to Section 2.7
   shall be remitted through the Company's payroll system in accordance with
   Section 3.4.

(b) Exchange Procedures. To the extent that an Equityholder has not delivered
   the Company Certificates representing all of such Equityholder's shares of
   Company Capital Stock or Company Options as of the Closing, then, promptly
   after the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation shall mail to such
   Equityholder: (i) a letter of transmittal which shall specify that the
   delivery of the consideration to be paid to such Equityholder under this
   Agreement shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to Company Capital
   Stock and Company Options held by such Equityholder shall pass, only upon
   delivery of the applicable Company Certificates and shall contain
   representations and warranties as to ownership and title to such Company
   Capital Stock or Company Options, and (ii) instructions for effecting the
   surrender of each Company Certificate in exchange for the amount to be paid
   to such Equityholder pursuant to Section 2.6 and Section 2.7. Upon surrender
   of a Company Certificate for cancellation to the Surviving Corporation,
   together with such letter of transmittal, duly completed and validly executed
   in accordance with the instructions thereto, the Company Certificates so
   surrendered shall forthwith be canceled, and the holder of the Company
   Certificate shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor, subject to
   Section 3.1(a), the consideration payable to such holder pursuant to Section
   2.6 and/or Section 2.7, as the case may be, without interest thereon, as such
   amounts may be adjusted pursuant to Section 2.8. Until so surrendered, each
   outstanding Company Certificate shall be deemed from and after the Effective
   Time, for all corporate purposes, to evidence only the right to receive the
   payments pursuant to Section 2.6 and/or Section 2.7, as such amounts may be
   adjusted pursuant to Section 2.8.

(c) Lost, Stolen or Destroyed Company Certificates. If any Company Certificate
   shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon (i) the making of an
   affidavit of that fact by the Person claiming such Company Certificate to be
   lost, stolen or destroyed and (ii) the execution and delivery to the
   Surviving Corporation by such Person of an indemnity agreement in customary
   form and substance, Parent or the Surviving Corporation shall, subject to
   Section 3.1(a), issue, in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Company
   Certificate, the amount of cash, without interest, that such Person would
   have been entitled to receive had such Person surrendered such lost, stolen
   or destroyed Company Certificate to the Surviving Corporation pursuant to
   Section 2.6(b), Section 2.6(c), Section 2.6(d) or Section 2.7, as such
   amounts may be adjusted pursuant to Section 2.8.

(d) No Liability. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 3.1,
   neither the Company, Parent nor the Surviving Corporation shall be liable to
   any Person for any amount properly paid to a public official pursuant to any
   abandoned property, escheat or similar Law.

SECTION 3.2 Dissenting Shares. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement
to the contrary and subject to Section 8.2(f), if required by the DGCL, but only
to the extent required thereby, shares of Company Capital Stock which are issued
and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and which are held by
holders of such shares of Company Capital Stock who have properly exercised
appraisal rights with respect thereto in accordance with the DGCL (the
"Dissenting Shares") shall not be exchangeable for the right to receive the Per
Share Merger Consideration, and holders of such shares of Company Capital Stock
shall be entitled to receive payment of the appraised value of such shares of
Company Capital Stock in accordance with the provisions of the DGCL unless and
until such holders fail to perfect or effectively withdraw or lose their rights
to appraisal and payment under the DGCL; provided however the appraised value,
including any interest thereon, of such shares in excess of the Per Share Merger
Consideration along with all costs associated with the appraisal process
(including, but not limited to, reasonable attorney fees of Parent and Merger
Sub and all court costs) shall be paid from the Indemnity Escrow Fund without
regard to the limitations contained in Section 10.3(b). If, after the Effective
Time, any such holder fails to perfect or effectively withdraws or loses such
right, such shares of Company Capital Stock shall thereupon be treated as if
they had been converted into and to have become exchangeable for, at the
Effective Time, the right to receive the Per Share Merger Consideration, without
any interest thereon. The Company shall give Parent and Merger Sub prompt notice
of any written demands for appraisal, withdrawals of demands for appraisal and
any other related instruments received by the Company. The Company shall not,
except with the prior written consent of Parent, voluntarily make any payment
with respect to any demands for appraisal or settle or offer to settle any such
demand.

SECTION 3.3 No Further Ownership Rights in Shares of Company Capital Stock;
Closing of Company Transfer Books. At and after the Effective Time, each holder
of Company Capital Stock shall cease to have any rights as a stockholder of the
Company, except for, in the case of a holder of Company Capital Stock (other
than shares to be cancelled pursuant to Section 2.6(a) or Dissenting Shares),
the right to surrender his or her Company Certificate in exchange for payment of
the Per Share Merger Consideration or, in the case of a holder of Dissenting
Shares, to perfect his or her right to receive payment for his or her shares of
Company Capital Stock pursuant to the DGCL, and no transfer of shares of Company
Capital Stock shall be made on the stock transfer books of the Surviving
Corporation. At the Effective Time, the stock transfer books of the Company
shall be closed, and no transfer of shares of Company Capital Stock shall
thereafter be made. If, after the Effective Time, Company Certificates are
presented to the Surviving Corporation, they shall be cancelled and exchanged as
provided for in this Agreement.

SECTION 3.4 Withholding Rights. Parent and t(a) he Surviving Corporation shall
be entitled to deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise payable
pursuant to this Agreement to any Equityholder such amounts as it is required to
deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under the Code,
or any applicable provision of state, local or foreign Tax Law (including under
Section 1445 of the Code, if applicable); provided, however, that Parent or the
Surviving Corporation shall notify any Equityholder from whom funds are properly
withheld of the amount of such withholding. To the extent that amounts are so
withheld by Parent or the Surviving Corporation in accordance with the
foregoing, such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this
Agreement as having been paid to the Equityholder in respect of which such
deduction and withholding was made by Parent or the Surviving Corporation.

                                  ARTICLE IV.
                  REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE COMPANY

         Contemporaneously with the execution and delivery of this Agreement by
the Company to Parent and Merger Sub, the Company shall deliver to Parent and
Merger Sub a disclosure schedule with numbered sections corresponding to the
relevant sections in this Agreement (the "Company Disclosure Schedule"). Any
exception or qualification set forth in the Company Disclosure Schedule with
respect to a particular representation, warranty or covenant contained herein
shall be deemed to be an exception or qualification with respect to all other
applicable representations, warranties and covenants contained in this
Agreement. Nothing in the Company Disclosure Schedule is intended to broaden the
scope of any representation, warranty or covenant of the Company contained in
this Agreement. Subject to the exceptions and qualifications set forth in the
Company Disclosure Schedule, the Company hereby represents and warrants to
Parent and Merger Sub as follows:

SECTION 4.1       Authority(a) .

(a) The Company has all requisite corporate power and authority to enter into
this Agreement, to perform its obligations hereunder and to consummate the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement. The execution and delivery of this
Agreement by the Company, the performance by the Company of its obligations
hereunder, and the consummation by the Company of the transactions contemplated
by this Agreement, have been duly authorized by the Board of Directors of the
Company, and no other corporate action on the part of the Company is necessary
to authorize the execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Company, the
performance by the Company of its obligations hereunder or the consummation by
the Company of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, other than the
Required Company Stockholder Vote. This Agreement has been duly executed and
delivered by the Company and, assuming due authorization, execution and delivery
by the other parties to this Agreement, this Agreement constitutes a legally
valid and binding obligation of the Company, enforceable against the Company in
accordance with its terms. The affirmative vote or consent of (i) the holders of
a majority of the shares of the outstanding Company Capital Stock voting or
consenting, as the case may be, on an as-if-converted to Company Common Stock
basis, (ii) the holders of a majority of the shares of the outstanding Company
Series A-1 Preferred Stock and (iii) the holders of a majority of the shares of
the outstanding Company Series A-3 Preferred Stock are the only votes of the
holders of any Company Capital Stock necessary under the DGCL and the Company
Certificate of Incorporation to adopt this Agreement (the "Required Company
Stockholder Vote").

(b) The Board of Directors of the Company, at a meeting duly called and held,
has unanimously duly adopted resolutions (i) determining that this Agreement and
the transactions contemplated hereby, including the Merger, are advisable and
are fair to and in the best interest of the Company's stockholders, (ii)
approving this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, including the
Merger which approval satisfies in full the requirements of the DGCL that the
Agreement be approved by the Company's Board of Directors, and (iii) resolving
to recommend approval and adoption of this Agreement by the Company's
stockholders at the Company Stockholders Meeting (the recommendations referred
to in this clause (iii) are collectively referred to in this Agreement as the
"Recommendations" and are subject to the right of the Board of Directors of the
Company to make subsequent determinations in accordance with Section 7.5(c)
below). The Company has been orally advised that all of its directors who hold
Company Common Stock intend to vote in favor of the Merger.

SECTION 4.2 Organization. The Company is a corporation duly organized, validly
existing and in good standing under the Laws of the State of Delaware, and has
all requisite corporate power and authority to own, operate or lease the

Business in all material respects. The Company is duly qualified to do business
as a foreign corporation, and is in good standing, under the Laws of each
jurisdiction in which the character of its properties owned, operated or leased,
or the nature of its activities, makes such qualification necessary, except in
those jurisdictions where the failure to be so qualified or in good standing,
when taken together with all other failures by the Company to be so qualified or
in good standing, would not have a Material Adverse Effect. True and complete
copies of the Certificate of Incorporation (the "Company Certificate of
Incorporation") and Bylaws (the "Company Bylaws") of the Company, each as
amended and in effect as of the date of this Agreement, have been made available
to Parent or its advisors. The Company has no Subsidiaries.

Bylaws or any agreement to which the Company is a party or by which it is bound,
and have been issued in compliance with applicable federal and state securities

Capital Stock, except for the Amended and Restated Stockholders and Registration
Rights Agreement, dated as of December 6, 2004, by and among the Company and the
stockholders listed therein (the "Stockholders Agreement").

SECTION 4.4 Conflicts. Assuming all consents, waivers, approvals,
authorizations, orders, permits, declarations, filings, registrations and
notifications and other actions set forth in Section 4.5 have been obtained or
made, the execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Company, the

will not (i) conflict with or result in a violation of the Company Certificate
of Incorporation or Company Bylaws; (ii) conflict with or result in a violation
of any Governmental Order or Law applicable to the Company or its assets or

state securities or "blue sky" Laws; (iii) such filings as may be required under
the HSR Act; and (iv) where the failure to obtain such consent, approval,
authorization or action, or to make such filing or notification would not, when
taken together with all other such failures by Parent and Merger Sub, have a
material adverse effect on the ability of Parent or Merger Sub to perform its
respective obligations under this Agreement or consummate the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement.

SECTION 5.5 Litigation and Governmental Orders. As of the date of this
Agreement, (i) there are no Actions pending against Parent, Merger Sub or any
other Subsidiaries of Parent ("Parent Subsidiaries"), or any of the assets or
properties of Parent, Merger Sub or any Parent Subsidiaries, or any of the
directors or officers of Parent, Merger Sub or any Parent Subsidiaries in their
capacity as directors or officers of Parent, Merger Sub or any Parent
Subsidiaries that would have a material adverse effect on the ability of Parent
or Merger Sub to perform its respective obligations under this Agreement or
consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and (ii) Parent,
Merger Sub and the Parent Subsidiaries and their respective assets and
properties are not subject to any material Governmental Order that would prevent
either Parent or Merger Sub from performing its respective obligations under
this Agreement or consummating the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

SECTION 5.6 Solvency. As of the Closing, and after giving effect to all of the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement, the Surviving Corporation will be
Solvent. For purposes of this Section 5.6, "Solvent" means that, with respect to
any Person and as of any date of determination, (i) the amount of the "present
fair saleable value" of the assets of such Person, will, as of such date, exceed
the amount of all "liabilities of such Person, contingent or otherwise," as of
such date, as such quoted terms are generally determined in accordance with
applicable federal laws governing determinations of the insolvency of debtors,
(ii) the present fair saleable value of the assets of such Person will, as of
such date, be greater than the amount that will be required to pay the liability
of such Person on its indebtedness as its indebtedness becomes absolute and
matured, (iii) such Person will not have, as of such date, an unreasonably small
amount of capital with which to conduct its business and (iv) such Person will
be able to pay its indebtedness as it matures. For purposes of the foregoing
definition only, "indebtedness" means a liability in connection with another
Person's (y) right to payment, whether or not such a right is reduced to
judgment, liquidated, unliquidated, fixed, contingent, matured, unmatured,
disputed, undisputed, legal, equitable, secured or unsecured or (z) right to any
equitable remedy for breach of performance if such breach gives rise to a right
of payment, whether or not such right to an equitable remedy is reduced to
judgment, fixed, contingent, matured, unmatured, disputed, undisputed, secured
or unsecured.

SECTION 5.7 Financing. Parent has sufficient funds or financing in place to fund
the Merger Consideration to be paid at Closing and its other obligations
hereunder.

SECTION 5.8 Due Diligence Investigation. Parent has had an opportunity to
discuss the business, management, operations and finances of the Company with
the Company's officers, directors, employees, agents, representatives and
affiliates, and has had an opportunity to inspect the facilities of the Company.
Parent has conducted its own independent investigation of the Company. In making
its decision to execute and deliver this Agreement and to consummate the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement, Parent has relied solely upon the
representations and warranties of the Company set forth in Article IV (and
acknowledges that such representations and warranties are the only
representations and warranties made by the Company) and has not relied upon any
other information provided by, for or on behalf of the Company, or its agents or
representatives, to Parent in connection with the transactions contemplated by
this Agreement. Parent has entered into the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement with the understanding, acknowledgement and agreement that no
representations or warranties, express or implied, are made with respect to
future prospects (financial or otherwise) of the Company. Parent acknowledges
that, except as expressly provided in Article VI, no current or former
stockholder, director, officer, employee, affiliate or advisor of the Company
has made or is making any representations, warranties or commitments whatsoever
regarding the subject matter of this Agreement, express or implied.

SECTION 5.9 Brokers. Except for J.P. Morgan Securities, Inc. (the fees and
expenses of which shall be paid in full by Parent), no broker, finder or
investment banker is entitled to any brokerage, finder's or other fee or
commission in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement
based upon any arrangements made by or on behalf of Parent, Merger Sub or any of
their respective Affiliates.

SECTION 5.10 No Prior Activities. Merger Sub has not incurred nor will it incur
any liabilities or obligations, except those incurred in connection with its
organization and with the negotiation of this Agreement and the performance of
its obligations hereunder and the consummation of the transactions contemplated
by this Agreement, including the Merger. Except as contemplated by this
Agreement, Merger Sub had not engaged in any business activities of any type or
kind whatsoever, or entered into any agreements or arrangements with any Person,
or become subject to or bound by any obligation or undertaking. As of the date
of this Agreement, all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Merger Sub
is owned beneficially and of record by Parent, free and clear of all
Encumbrances (other than those created by this Agreement and the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement).

               REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE EQUITYHOLDERS

that number of Company Capital Stock and is due the Applicable Percentage

terminated in connection with the Closing and other than any restrictions under
the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and state securities laws). Except as
set forth in Section 4.3(a) of the Company Disclosure Schedule or the Company
Options described in Section 4.3(b), such Equityholder is not a party to any
option, warrant, right, contract, call, pledge, put or other agreement or
commitment providing for the disposition or acquisition of such Equityholder's
interest in Parent or the Company, as the case may be. Such Equityholder is not
a party to any voting trust, proxy or other agreement or understanding with
respect to the voting of any of the Company Capital Stock, except for the
Amended and Restated Stockholders and Registration Rights Agreement, dated as of
December 6, 2004, by and among the Company and the stockholders listed therein.

                                  ARTICLE VII.

   such Persons.

(b) The Company shall immediately notify Parent orally and in writing after
   receipt by the Company (or, to the knowledge of the Company, by any of the
   Company Representatives), of (i) any Acquisition Proposal, or (ii) any
   inquiry, expression of interest, proposal or offer that constitutes, or would
   reasonably be expected to lead to, an Acquisition Proposal by any Person or
   Persons other than Parent.

(a) Unless Parent otherwise consents in writing (which consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) and except as otherwise
contemplated by this Agreement or set forth in the Company Disclosure Schedule,
during the period commencing with the execution and delivery of this Agreement
and terminating upon the earlier to occur of the Effective Time and the
termination of this Agreement pursuant to and in accordance with Section 9.1
(the "Pre-Closing Period"), the Company shall conduct the Business in the usual,

agreement, settlement, surrender, consent or other action would have the effect
of materially increasing the Tax liability of the Company for any period ending
after the Closing Date or materially decreasing any Tax attribute existing on
the Closing Date.

SECTION 7.3 Access to Information. Subject to the terms of the Confidentiality
Agreement (which Parent and Merger Sub each acknowledge is fully applicable to
it), during the Pre-Closing Period, upon reasonable notice and during normal
business hours, the Company shall, and shall cause the officers, employees,
auditors and agents of the Company to, (i) afford the officers, employees and
authorized agents and representatives of Parent reasonable access to the
offices, properties, books and records of the Company and (ii) furnish to the
officers, employees and authorized agents and representatives of Parent such
additional financial and operating data and other information regarding the
assets, properties and business of the Company as Parent may from time to time
reasonably request in order to assist Parent in fulfilling its obligations under
this Agreement and to facilitate the consummation of the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement; provided, however, that Parent shall not
interfere with any of the operations or business activities of the Company.

SECTION 7.4 Confidentiality. Parent and Merger Sub hereby agree to be bound by
and comply with the terms of the Confidentiality Agreement, which are hereby
incorporated into this Agreement by reference and shall continue in full force
and effect until the Effective Time, such that the information obtained by
Parent and Merger Sub, or their respective officers, employees, agents or
representatives, during any investigation conducted pursuant to Section 7.3, or
in connection with the negotiation and execution of this Agreement or the
consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, or otherwise,
shall be governed by the terms of the Confidentiality Agreement.

SECTION 7.5       Efforts; Consents; Regulatory and Other Authorizations.

(a) Each party to this Agreement shall use its commercially reasonable efforts
to (i) take, or cause to be taken, all appropriate action, and do, or cause to
be done, all things necessary, proper or advisable under applicable Law or
otherwise to promptly consummate and make effective the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement; (ii) obtain all authorizations, consents, orders
and approvals of, and give all notices to and make all filings with, all
Governmental Authorities and other third parties that may be or become necessary
for the performance of its obligations under this Agreement and the consummation
of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including those consents set
forth in the Company Disclosure Schedule; (iii) lift or rescind any injunction
or restraining order or other order adversely affecting the ability of the
parties to this Agreement to consummate the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement; and (iv) fulfill all conditions to such party's obligations under
this Agreement. Each party to this Agreement shall cooperate fully with the
other parties to this Agreement in promptly seeking to obtain all such
authorizations, consents, orders and approvals, giving such notices, and making
such filings. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary set
forth in this Agreement, in connection with obtaining such consents from third
parties, no party to this Agreement shall be required to make payments, commence
litigation or agree to modifications of the terms and conditions of any
agreements with third parties, and except for modifications which would not have
a Material Adverse Effect, no such modifications shall be made to any Contract
of the Company without the consent of Parent, which consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. The parties to this Agreement
shall not take any action that is reasonably likely to have the effect of
unreasonably delaying, impairing or impeding the receipt of any required
authorizations, consents, orders or approvals.

(b) In furtherance and not in limitation of the terms of Section 7.5(a), to the
extent required by applicable Law, each of Parent and the Company shall file, or
cause to be filed, a Notification and Report Form pursuant to the HSR Act with
respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement within five (5)
Business Days of the date of this Agreement (including, in the case of Parent, a
request for early termination of the applicable waiting period under the HSR
Act), shall supply promptly any additional information and documentary material
that may be requested by any Governmental Authority (including the Antitrust
Division of the United States Department of Justice and the United States
Federal Trade Commission) pursuant to the HSR Act, and shall cooperate in
connection with any filing under applicable antitrust Laws and in connection
with resolving any investigation or other inquiry concerning the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement commenced by any Governmental Authority,
including the United States Federal Trade Commission, the Antitrust Division of
the United States Department of Justice, or the office of any state attorney
general.

(c) In furtherance of and not in limitation of the terms of Section 7.5(a), the
Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the adoption of this
Agreement by its stockholders to the extent required by the DGCL for the
consummation of the Merger. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, as
promptly as practicable following the execution and delivery of this Agreement,
the Company shall submit this Agreement to the Company's stockholders for
adoption at a meeting of the Company's stockholders or by written consent of the
Company's stockholders, which shall be called and held or solicited, as the case
may be, in accordance with the requirements of the DGCL and the Company
Certificate of Incorporation and Company Bylaws (the "Company Stockholder
Meeting/Consent"). The materials submitted to the Company's stockholders in
connection with the Company Stockholder Meeting/Consent shall include
information regarding the Company, the terms of this Agreement and the Merger
and the unanimous recommendation of the Company's Board of Directors that the
Company's stockholders vote their shares of Company Capital Stock in favor of
the adoption of this Agreement; provided, however, that the Company's Board of
Directors may change such Recommendation only if the Company's Board of
Directors determines that it must take such action in order to comply with its
fiduciary duties under applicable Law; and provided further, that no such change
shall relieve the Company of its obligation to call and hold or seek, as the
case may be, the Company Stockholder Meeting/Consent pursuant to this Section
7.5(c).

SECTION 7.6 Further Action. Subject to the terms and conditions provided in this
Agreement, each of the parties to this Agreement shall use its commercially
reasonable efforts to deliver, or cause to be delivered, such further
certificates, instruments and other documents, and to take, or cause to be
taken, such further actions, as may be necessary, proper or advisable under
applicable Law to consummate and make effective the transactions contemplated by
this Agreement.

SECTION 7.7       Indemnification; Directors' and Officers' Insurance.

(a) Subject to, and contingent on the Equityholders obtaining the insurance
policy required in Section 7.7(b), until the sixth anniversary of the Effective
Time, Parent shall, and shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, (i) indemnify
and hold harmless each present and former director and officer of the Company
(collectively, the "Company Indemnified Parties"), against any and all Damages
incurred or suffered by any of the Company Indemnified Parties in connection
with any Liabilities or any Action, whether civil, criminal, administrative or
investigative, arising out of or pertaining to matters existing or occurring at
or prior to the Effective Time, whether asserted or claimed prior to, at or
after the Effective Time, to the fullest extent that the Company would have been
permitted under applicable Law and under the Company Certificate of
Incorporation and Company Bylaws, in each case as in effect on the date of this
Agreement, to indemnify such Company Indemnified Parties and (ii) advance
expenses as incurred by any Company Indemnified Party in connection with any
matters for which such Company Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification
from Parent pursuant to this Section 7.7(a) to the fullest extent permitted
under applicable Law or, if greater, under the Company Certificate of
Incorporation and Company Bylaws; provided, however, that the Company
Indemnified Party to whom expenses are advanced provides an undertaking to repay
such advances if it is ultimately and finally determined by a court of competent
jurisdiction and all rights of appeal have lapsed that such Company Indemnified
Party is not entitled to indemnification under applicable Law, the Company
Certificate of Incorporation and Company Bylaws, and pursuant to this Section
7.7(a).

(b) For a period of six (6) years following the Effective Time, Parent shall
maintain, or shall cause the Surviving Corporation for itself to maintain, in
effect a directors' and officers' liability insurance policy covering those
persons who are currently covered by the Company's directors' and officers'
liability insurance policy (copies of which have been heretofore delivered by
the Company to Parent and its agents and representatives) with coverage in
amount and scope at least as favorable as the Company's existing coverage;
provided, however, that in no event shall Parent or the Surviving Corporation be
required to expend in the aggregate in excess of two hundred fifty percent
(250%) of the annual premium currently paid by the Company for such coverage,
and if such premium would at any time exceed two hundred fifty percent (250%) of
such amount, then Parent or the Surviving Corporation shall maintain insurance
policies which provide the maximum and best coverage available at an annual
premium equal to two hundred fifty percent (250%) of such amount; and provided,
further, that this Section 7.7(b) shall be deemed to have been satisfied if a
prepaid policy or policies (i.e., "tail coverage") have been obtained by the
Company which policy or policies provide such directors and officers with the
coverage described in this Section 7.7(b) for an aggregate period of not less
than six (6) years with respect to claims arising from facts or events that
occurred on or before the Closing Date, including with respect to the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

(c) The terms and provisions of this Section 7.7 are intended to be in addition
to the rights otherwise available to the Company Indemnified Parties by
applicable Law, charter, bylaw or agreement, and shall operate for the benefit
of, and shall be enforceable by, the Company Indemnified Parties and their
respective heirs and representatives, each of whom is an intended third party
beneficiary of this Section 7.7.

SECTION 7.8       Employee Benefit Matters.

(a) For purposes of determining eligibility to participate, vesting and
entitlement to benefits where length of service is relevant under any benefit
plan or arrangement of Parent, the Surviving Corporation or any of their
respective Subsidiaries, Company Employees as of the Effective Time shall
receive service credit for service with the Company to the same extent such
service credit was granted under the Company Benefit Plans, subject to offsets
for previously accrued benefits and no duplication of benefits. Parent and the
Surviving Corporation shall (i) to the extent Company Employees provide Parent
with a HIPAA certificate waive all limitations as to preexisting conditions
exclusions and waiting periods with respect to participation and coverage
requirements applicable to the Company Employees under any welfare benefit plans
that such employees may be eligible to participate in after the Effective Time,
other than limitations or waiting periods that are already in effect with
respect to such employees and that have not been satisfied as of the Effective
Time under any welfare benefit plan maintained for the Company Employees
immediately prior to the Effective Time and (ii) to the extent such expense
information can be obtained, verified by the insurance company and entered into
the insurance company's system, provide each Company Employee with credit for
any co-payments and deductibles paid prior to the Effective Time in satisfying
any applicable deductible or out-of-pocket requirements under any welfare plans
(other than a Company Benefit Plan) that such employees are eligible to
participate in immediately after the Effective Time.

(b) For a period of twelve (12) months following the Closing, Parent shall
provide (or cause the Surviving Corporation or another Affiliate of Parent to
provide) to employees of the Surviving Corporation or any other Affiliate of
Parent who were employees of the Company immediately prior to the Effective Time
("Continuing Employees") base compensation, bonus opportunities and employee
benefits (other than equity-based compensation arrangements) ("Employee
Benefits") which are substantially comparable in the aggregate to the Employee
Benefits provided to the employees of the Company immediately prior to the
Closing. Thereafter, Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation (or other
Affiliate of Parent) to provide Employee Benefits to the Continuing Employees
which are comparable in all material respects to those employee benefits
generally provided to employees employed by Parent or other Subsidiaries of
Parent and are consistent with industry standards for companies of similar size.

SECTION 7.9 Provision Respecting Legal Representation. Each of the parties to
this Agreement hereby agrees, on its own behalf and on behalf of its directors,
members, partners, officers, employees and Affiliates, that Latham & Watkins LLP
may serve as counsel to each and any holder of Company Capital Stock and their
respective Affiliates (individually and collectively, the "Holder Group"), on
the one hand, and the Company, on the other hand, in connection with the
negotiation, preparation, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the
consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, and that, following
consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, Latham & Watkins LLP (or
any successor) may serve as counsel to the Holder Group or any director, member,
partner, officer, employee or Affiliate of the Holder Group, in connection with
any litigation, claim or obligation arising out of or relating to this Agreement
or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement notwithstanding such
representation and each of the parties hereto hereby consents thereto and waives
any conflict of interest arising therefrom, and each of such parties shall cause
any Affiliate thereof to consent to waive any conflict of interest arising from
such representation.

SECTION 7.10 Transfer Taxes. All Transfer Taxes, if any, arising out of or in
connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be borne
by Parent.

SECTION 7.11 Disclosure Schedules; Supplementation and Amendment of Schedules.
From time to time prior to the Closing, the Company shall have the right to
supplement or amend the Company Disclosure Schedule with respect to any matter
hereafter arising or discovered after the delivery of the Company Disclosure
Schedule pursuant to this Agreement; provided, however, that such supplements or
amendments to the Company Disclosure Schedule shall not be deemed to amend or
otherwise modify the Company Disclosure Schedule delivered on the date hereof or
the representations and warranties of the Company contained herein; provided,
further, if the Closing shall occur, then Parent and Merger Sub shall be deemed
to have waived any right or claim pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or
otherwise with respect to any and all matters disclosed pursuant to any such
supplement or amendment at or prior to the Closing.

SECTION 7.12 Continued Association with the Company. During the Pre-Closing
Period, the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts in collaboration
with Parent and Merger Sub to encourage all of the senior management of the
Company to continue their employment until the Closing and thereupon to accept
and continue employment with the Surviving Corporation.

SECTION 7.13 Letters of Credit. To the extent necessary, Parent shall, or shall
cause one of its Affiliates to, guaranty or place cash on deposit with the
issuing bank effective upon the Closing in respect of its then-outstanding but
undrawn letters of credit issued on behalf of the Company in the ordinary course
of business.

SECTION 7.14 Code Section 280G Matters. Prior to the Effective Time, the Company
shall submit to a stockholder vote (along with adequate disclosure satisfying
the requirements of Code Section 280G(b)(5)(B)(ii) and any regulations
promulgated thereunder) the right of any "disqualified individual" with respect
to the Company (within the meaning of Code Section 280G(c)) to receive any
payment that would constitute a "parachute payment" (within the meaning of Code
Section 280G(b)(2)(A)(i)) and as to which such individual waives his or her
rights as described in the following sentence in a manner that satisfies the
shareholder approval requirements of Code Section 280G(b)(5) and any regulations
promulgated thereunder to the extent necessary to cause any such payment to not
constitute an "excess parachute payment" within the meaning of Code Section
280G(b)(1). To the extent that any such "disqualified individual" has the right
to receive payments that could constitute "parachute payments" and elects to
waive such rights, the Company shall obtain waivers of such rights prior to
soliciting the vote described in the immediately preceding sentence such that
the vote shall, if successful, establish each "disqualified individual's" right
to the payment. The Company shall provide, or cause to be provided, to Parent a
draft of all stockholder vote related documents, including, but not limited to,
any disclosure documents and "disqualified individual" waivers. The Company
shall incorporate any reasonable comments that are made by Parent. Parent shall
reasonably cooperate with the Company in connection with the preparation of such
stockholder vote related documents.

SECTION 7.15 Drag-Along Rights. The Company shall use commercially reasonable
efforts to cause Equityholders holding a sufficient number of shares of Company
Preferred Stock to exercise their "drag-along rights" as described in the
Stockholders Agreement.

SECTION 7.16 Payment of Closing Debt and Unpaid Company Transaction Expenses.
With respect to the Closing Debt and Unpaid Company Transaction Expenses
described in the definition of Merger Consideration, Parent shall pay those
funds to (a) holders of Closing Debt and (b) those persons entitled to payment
of Unpaid Company Transaction Expenses as directed in writing by the
Equityholders' Representative (the "Letter of Direction").

performed or complied with by Parent and Merger Sub at or prior to the Effective
Time shall have been performed or complied with in all material respects; and

following conditions:

(a) Representations and Warranties; Covenants. (i) The representations and
warranties of the Company set forth in Article IV and the Equityholders set
forth in Article VI shall be true and correct at and as of the date of this
Agreement and as of the Closing Date (except that those representations and
warranties that are made as of a specific date need only be true and correct in
all respects as of such date), except where the failure of Article IV
representations and warranties to be true and correct has not had, individually
or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect; (ii) the covenants and
agreements set forth in this Agreement to be performed or complied with by the
Company at or prior to the Closing shall have been performed or complied with in

to result in a Material Adverse Effect, Parent shall have the right to terminate
this Agreement as provided in Section 9.1(f).

(b) No Governmental Order. No Governmental Authority shall have enacted, issued,
promulgated, enforced or entered any Governmental Order which is in effect and
has the effect of making the Merger or any of the other material transactions
contemplated by this Agreement illegal or otherwise restraining or prohibiting
the consummation of the Merger or any of the other transactions contemplated by
this Agreement.

(c) HSR Act. The waiting period under the HSR Act, if applicable, shall have
expired or been terminated.

                                  ARTICLE IX.
                        TERMINATION, AMENDMENT AND WAIVER

SECTION 9.1       Termination.  This Agreement may be terminated at any time
prior to the Closing:

(a) by the mutual written consent of Parent, Merger Sub and the Company;

(b) by either the Company, on the one hand, or Parent and Merger Sub, on the
other hand, by written notice to the other party if any Governmental Authority
with jurisdiction over such matters shall have issued a Governmental Order
permanently restraining, enjoining or otherwise prohibiting the Merger or any of
the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and such Governmental
Order shall have become final and unappealable; provided, however, that the
terms of this Section 9.1(b) shall not be available to any party unless such
party shall have used commercially reasonable efforts to oppose any such
Governmental Order or to have such Governmental Order vacated or made
inapplicable to the Merger or other transaction contemplated by this Agreement
to which such Governmental Order relates;

(c) by either the Company, on the one hand, or Parent and Merger Sub, on the
other hand, by written notice to the other party if the Merger shall not have
been consummated on or before August 31, 2007, unless the failure to consummate
the Merger on or prior to such date is the result of any breach of this
Agreement by the party seeking to terminate the Agreement pursuant to the terms
of this Section 9.1(c);

(d) by either Parent or the Company, if the other shall have breached, or failed
to comply with, in any material respect any of its obligations under this
Agreement, or any representation or warranty made in this Agreement by such
other party shall have been incorrect in any material respect when made or shall
have since ceased to be true and correct in any material respect, and such
breach, failure or misrepresentations is not cured within fifteen (15) days
after written notice thereof and such breaches, failures or misrepresentations,
individually or in the aggregate and without regard to materiality qualifiers
contained therein, result or would be reasonably likely to result in a Material
Adverse Effect;

(e) by Parent, if the approval of the stockholders of the Company is not
obtained at the applicable stockholders meeting, including adjournments thereof,
or if a written consent of stockholders in a form reasonably acceptable to
Parent, executed by each of the stockholders that has executed a Voting
Agreement has not been delivered to Parent within 24 hours after the execution
of this Agreement; or

(f) by Parent if, prior to June 22, 2007, the Company and the Equityholders'
Representative shall have received from Parent a written notice (the
"Environmental Notice") that the Phase I environmental studies conducted on the
Company's warehouse in Louisville, Kentucky and the Company's headquarters in
Portland, Oregon (the "Phase I Studies") revealed a material environmental
uncertainty of the Company, which Environmental Notice shall include true and
correct copies of the Phase I Studies; provided, however, that Parent shall not
be permitted to terminate this Agreement if the Company and the Equityholders'
Representative deliver a written notice to Parent, within fifteen (15) Business
Days after receipt of the Environmental Notice, in which the Company and the
Equityholders' Representative notify Parent that the Equityholders shall be
responsible for one-half of the liability described in the Environmental Notice
relating to the environmental uncertainty identified in the Phase I Studies.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Parent and the Equityholders'
Representative shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the respective
landlord to provide for any indemnification of the Company specified in any
Contract between such landlord and the Company prior to, or as offset by, any
payments by the Equityholders to Parent.

                  Any right of termination set forth above shall be exercised by
written notice from the terminating party to the other party.

SECTION 9.2 Effect of Termination. In the event of termination of this Agreement
and abandonment of the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this
Agreement pursuant to and in accordance with Section 9.1, this Agreement shall
forthwith become void and of no further force or effect whatsoever and, subject
to Section 9.3, there shall be no liability on the part of any party to this
Agreement; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing
contained in this Agreement shall relieve any party to this Agreement from any
liability resulting from or arising out of any intentional, material breach of
any agreement or covenant hereunder; and provided, further, that notwithstanding
the foregoing, the terms of Section 7.4, this Section 9.2 and Article XI shall
remain in full force and effect and shall survive any termination of this
Agreement, whether in accordance with Section 9.1 or otherwise.

                                   ARTICLE X.
                                 INDEMNIFICATION

SECTION 10.1 Survival of Representations. The representations and warranties
made by the Company and/or the Equityholders in Article IV, Article VI or in the
Ancillary Documents and the covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement
shall survive the Closing and shall expire on the first anniversary of the
Closing Date (the "Expiration Date"); provided, however, that the
representations contained in Sections 4.1, 4.2, 4.3, 6.1 and 6.2 shall survive
indefinitely (each such representation a "Fundamental Representation"); and
further, provided, that if, at any time prior to the applicable Expiration Date,
(a) Parent (acting in good faith) delivers to the Equityholders' Representative
a written notice alleging the existence of an inaccuracy in or a breach of any
of the representations and warranties made by the Company in Article IV or in
the Ancillary Documents, or by an Equityholder in Article VI, setting forth in
reasonable detail the basis for Parent's belief that such an inaccuracy or
breach may exist and asserting a claim for recovery under Section 10.2 based on
such alleged inaccuracy or breach, or (b) the Equityholders' Representative
(acting in good faith) delivers to the Parent a written notice alleging the
existence of an inaccuracy in or a breach of any of the representations and
warranties made by Parent and Merger Sub in Article V setting forth in
reasonable detail the basis for the belief of the Equityholders' Representative
that such an inaccuracy or breach may exist and asserting a claim for recovery
under Section 10.2 based on such alleged inaccuracy or breach then, in the case
of clause (a) or clause (b), the claim asserted in such notice shall survive the
Expiration Date until such time as such claim is fully and finally resolved.

SECTION 10.2      Right to Indemnification.

(a) Subject to the limitations set forth in this Article X, from and after the
Effective Time, Parent shall be entitled to be indemnified, solely from the
Indemnity Escrow Fund, against any Damages actually incurred by Parent as a
proximate result of: (i) any breach of any representation or warranty made by
the Company or an Equityholder set forth in Article IV, Article VI or in the
Ancillary Documents; or (ii) any material breach of any covenant or agreement of
the Company or an Equityholder set forth in this Agreement or in the Ancillary
Documents. Subject to the limitations set forth in this Article X, to the extent
the Escrow Fund is not available, from and after the Effective Time, Parent
shall be entitled to be indemnified by the individual Equityholders, severally
and not jointly, against any Damages actually incurred by Parent as a proximate
result of any breach of any representation or warranty of such Equityholder set
forth in Article VI.

(b) Subject to the limitations set forth in this Article X, from and after the
Effective Time, the Equityholders shall be entitled to be indemnified by Parent
and the Surviving Corporation against any Damages actually incurred by any of
the Equityholders as a proximate result of: (i) any breach of any representation
or warranty made by the Parent or the Merger Sub set forth in Article V or in
the Ancillary Documents; or (ii) any material breach of any covenant or
agreement of Parent or Merger Sub set forth in this Agreement.

SECTION 10.3      Limitations on Liability.

(a) From and after the Effective Time, the right of Parent to be indemnified
from the Indemnity Escrow Fund pursuant to this Article X shall be the sole and
exclusive remedy with respect to any breach of any representation or warranty of
the Company contained in, or any other breach by the Company of, this Agreement.
The right of Parent to be indemnified solely and exclusively from the Indemnity
Escrow Fund shall not apply to claims relating to the breach of a Fundamental
Representation; provided, that in no event shall any Equityholder be liable to
Parent for Damages relating to the breach of Fundamental Representations in
excess of the Merger Consideration actually received by such Person. Except as
provided with respect to the Equityholders in the immediately preceding
sentence, no current or former stockholder, director, officer, employee,
affiliate or advisor of the Company shall have any Liability of any nature to
Parent, the Surviving Corporation or any Affiliate of Parent or the Surviving
Corporation with respect to any breach of any representation or warranty
contained in, or any other breach of, this Agreement. From and after the
Effective Time, the right of the Equityholders to be indemnified pursuant to
this Article X shall be the sole and exclusive remedy with respect to any breach
of any representation or warranty of Parent or Merger Sub contained in, or any
other breach by Parent or Merger Sub of, this Agreement. No current or former
stockholder, director, officer, employee, affiliate or advisor of Parent or
Merger Sub shall have any Liability of any nature to any Equityholder or any
Affiliate of any Equityholder with respect to any breach of any representation
or warranty contained in, or any other breach of, this Agreement.

(b) Without limiting the effect of any other limitation contained in this
Article X, and except for the breach of a Fundamental Representation, the
indemnification provided for in Section 10.2 shall not apply except to the
extent that the aggregate Damages against which Parent would otherwise be
entitled to be indemnified under this Article X exceeds $1,750,000, in which
event Parent shall, subject to the other limitations contained herein, be
entitled to be indemnified only against the portion of such Damages in excess of
$1,750,000. Any amounts payable by the Equityholders to Parent or Merger Sub
pursuant to this Section 10.3 shall be paid solely and exclusively from the
Indemnity Escrow Fund in accordance with the terms of the Escrow Agreement, and
no holder of Company Capital Stock, Company Option or any other Person shall be
liable for any deficiency with respect to indemnity pursuant to this Section
10.3 except with respect to the breach of a Fundamental Representation.

(c) Without limiting the effect of any other limitation contained in this
Article X, for purposes of computing the amount of any Damages incurred by
Parent under this Article X, there shall be deducted an amount equal to the
amount of any insurance proceeds, indemnification payments, contribution
payments or reimbursements received by Parent or any of its Affiliates in
connection with such Damages or any of the circumstances giving rise thereto (it
being understood that Parent and any of its Affiliates shall use commercially
reasonable efforts to obtain such proceeds, payments or reimbursements prior to
seeking indemnification under this Article X). The calculation of Damages shall
not include losses arising because of a change after Closing in Law or
accounting policy. To the extent that a claim for indemnification by Parent or
Merger Sub hereunder relates to a Liability incurred by the Company and there is
an accrual on the Current Balance Sheet in respect of such Liability, then the
determination of Damages in respect of such claim shall be net of such accrual.

(d) Without limiting the effect of any other limitation contained in this
Article X, Parent shall not be entitled to indemnification under this Article X
to the extent that such right of indemnification is addressed in the adjustments
to the Per Share Merger Consideration made following the Closing pursuant to
Section 2.8 or as otherwise referenced on the Closing Balance Sheet.

(e) Without limiting the effect of any other limitation contained in this
Article X, for purposes of this Agreement, no representation or warranty of the
Company or an Equityholder, on the one hand, or Parent and Merger Sub, on the
other hand, shall be deemed to be or to have been breached if: (A) Parent or the
Company, as the case may be, had actual knowledge, on or prior to the date of
this Agreement, of the breach of such representation or warranty, or of any
facts or circumstances rendering such representation or warranty inaccurate; or
(B) during the Pre-Closing Period, Parent or the Company, as the case may be,
obtained actual knowledge of the breach of such representation or warranty, or
of any facts or circumstances rendering such representation or warranty
inaccurate, and elected nonetheless to proceed with the Closing.

(f) Nothing in this Section 10.3 shall limit any remedy Parent or any of the
Equityholders may have against any Person for actual fraud involving a knowing
and intentional misrepresentation of a fact material to the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement upon which such other party has relied.

SECTION 10.4      Defense of Third-Party Claims.

(a) Upon receipt by any Person seeking to be indemnified pursuant to Section
10.2 (the "Indemnitee") of notice of any actual or possible claim, demand, suit,
action, arbitration, investigation, inquiry or proceeding that has been or may
be brought or asserted by a third party against such Indemnitee and that may be
subject to indemnification hereunder (a "Third-Party Claim"), the Indemnitee
shall promptly give notice of such Third-Party Claim to the Person from whom
indemnification is sought under Section 10.2 (the "Indemnitor") indicating the
nature of such Third-Party Claim and the stated basis therefor and the amount of
Damages claimed pursuant to such Third-Party Claim, to the extent known.

(b) The Indemnitor shall have 30 days after receipt of the Indemnitee's notice
of a given Third-Party Claim to elect, at its option, to assume the defense of
any such Third-Party Claim, in which case: (i) the attorneys' fees, other
professionals' and experts' fees and court or arbitration costs incurred by the
Indemnitor in connection with defending such Third-Party Claim shall be payable
by such Indemnitor; (ii) the Indemnitee shall not be entitled to be indemnified
for any costs or expenses incurred by the Indemnitee in connection with the
defense of such Third-Party Claim; (iii) the Indemnitee shall be entitled to
monitor such defense at its sole expense; (iv) the Indemnitee shall make
available to the Indemnitor all books, records and other documents and materials
that are under the direct or indirect control of the Indemnitee or any of its
Subsidiaries or other Affiliates and that the Indemnitor considers necessary or
desirable for the defense of such Third-Party Claim; (v) the Indemnitee shall
execute such documents and take such other actions as the Indemnitor may
reasonably request for the purpose of facilitating the defense of, or any
settlement, compromise or adjustment relating to, such Third-Party Claim; (vi)
the Indemnitee shall otherwise fully cooperate as reasonably requested by the
Indemnitor in the defense of such Third-Party Claim; (vii) the Indemnitee shall
not admit any liability with respect to such Third Party Claim; and (viii) the
Indemnitor shall not enter into any agreement providing for the settlement or
compromise of such Third-Party Claim or the consent to the entry of a judgment
with respect to such Third-Party Claim without the prior written consent of
Indemnitee (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or
delayed). If the Indemnitor elects not to defend such Third-Party Claim, then
(i) the Indemnitee shall diligently defend such Third-Party Claim and (ii) the
Indemnitee shall have no right to seek indemnification under this Article X in
respect of such Third-Party Claim for any agreement providing for the settlement
or compromise of such Third-Party Claim or the consent to the entry of a
judgment with respect to such Third-Party Claim entered into without the prior
written consent of the Indemnitor (which consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld, conditioned or delayed), provided, however, in no event shall the
maximum aggregate Liability of the Equityholders for indemnification claims
payable by the Equityholders hereunder exceed the Indemnity Escrow Fund.

SECTION 10.5 Limitation on Damages. NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING TO THE CONTRARY
PROVIDED FOR UNDER ANY APPLICABLE LAW, EXCEPT AS PROVIDED IN THIS AGREEMENT, NO
PARTY NOR ANY EQUITYHOLDER OR EQUITYHOLDERS' REPRESENTATIVE SHALL, IN ANY EVENT,
BE LIABLE TO ANY OTHER PARTY FOR ANY CONSEQUENTIAL, SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY OR
PUNITIVE DAMAGES RELATING TO THE BREACH OR ALLEGED BREACH HEREOF (EXCEPT THOSE
INCURRED AS A RESULT OF A THIRD PARTY CLAIM).

SECTION 10.6 Characterization of Indemnification Payments. The parties agree
that any indemnification payments made pursuant to this Article X shall be
treated for all Tax purposes as an adjustment to the purchase price unless
otherwise required by Law.

SECTION 10.7 Allocation of Certain Indemnification Obligations; Special Payment
Procedures. In the event that any claim for Damages made by Parent pursuant to
Section 10.2 constitutes Damages for which the Equityholders who were holders of
Company Capital Stock prior to December 6, 2004 (such Equityholders, with
respect to such shares, the "Pre-2005 Indemnified Stockholders") are entitled to
contribution or indemnification from certain prior stockholders of the Company
in accordance with the Contribution Agreement dated December 6, 2004 (a "Special
Allocated Loss"), then such Special Allocated Loss shall, to the extent Parent
is entitled to indemnification therefor pursuant to the terms of Section 10.2,
be the obligation of the Pre-2005 Indemnified Equityholders and not the other
Equityholders. The Equityholders' Representative shall notify the Parent in
writing if any claim for Damages constitutes such Special Allocated Loss. Prior
to the payment from the Indemnity Escrow Fund of any amount to Parent in respect
of any such Special Allocated Loss, the Equityholders' Representative or its
designee shall have thirty (30) days in which to seek contribution from persons
who were stockholders of the Company prior to December 6, 2004 ("Pre-2005
Stockholders"), which payment (if any) will be made directly to Parent and shall
offset dollar-for-dollar the Parent's claim on the Indemnity Escrow Fund for any
Special Allocated Loss or any other Damages for which the Parent may be entitled
to indemnification pursuant to Section 10.2. If any amount of Special Allocated
Loss is not paid pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence within the
specified time period, such amount shall then be payable from the Escrow
Indemnity Fund in accordance with this Article X and the Escrow Agreement;
provided, however, that the amounts (if any) paid from the Indemnity Escrow Fund
with respect to a Special Allocated Loss shall be an obligation of the
Indemnified Pre-2005 Stockholders and accordingly shall be allocated, pro rata,
among the Indemnified Pre-2005 Stockholders, with the actual allocation to be in
accordance with a schedule to be provided by the Equityholders Representative to
the Parent and the Escrow Agent in writing; provided, further, that in the event
the portion of the Indemnity Escrow Fund allocated to the Indemnified Pre-2005
Stockholders shall be entirely exhausted, any then unpaid Special Allocated Loss
shall be recovered by Parent from the remaining Indemnity Escrow Fund, if any.
Without limiting the generality of Article XI, Parent is expressly authorized to
rely on any written notice of the Equityholders' Representative contemplated by
this Section 10.7, and no Equityholder or any other Person shall have any claim
of any sort whatsoever against Parent or the Escrow Agent for acting in reliance
thereon. FOR THE AVOIDANCE OF DOUBT, THE SOLE PURPOSE OF THIS SECTION 10.7 IS TO
FACILITATE THE ALLOCATION OF CERTAIN INDEMNIFICATION OBLIGATIONS PROVIDED FOR IN
THIS ARTICLE X BY AND AMONG THE PRESENT EQUITYHOLDERS AND CERTAIN PRIOR
STOCKHOLDERS OF THE COMPANY AS A FINANCIAL MATTER, AND SHALL NOT ADVERSELY
AFFECT IN ANY MANNER THE ULTIMATE RIGHT OF THE PARENT TO RECOVER DAMAGES FROM
THE INDEMNIFICATION ESCROW FUND UPON THE TERMS AND SUBJECT TO THE CONDITIONS AND
OTHER LIMITATIONS OF THIS AGREEMENT.

                                  ARTICLE XI.
                               GENERAL PROVISIONS

SECTION 11.1      Equityholders' Representative.

(a) Appointment. By virtue of the adoption of this Agreement by the Company's
stockholders, and without further action of any Company stockholder, each
Equityholder shall be deemed to have irrevocably constituted and appointed
Castanea Partners, Inc. (and by execution of this Agreement it hereby accepts
such appointment) as agent and attorney-in-fact ("Equityholders'
Representative") for and on behalf of the Equityholders (in their capacity as
such), with full power of substitution, to act in the name, place and stead of
each Equityholder with respect to Section 2.8, Article X and the Escrow
Agreement and the taking by the Equityholders' Representative of any and all
actions and the making of any decisions required or permitted to be taken by the
Equityholders' Representative under Section 2.8, Article X or the Escrow
Agreement (it being understood that the Equityholders' Representative shall have
no right to pursue any claim on behalf of any Company Indemnified Party in
respect of the rights granted to Company Indemnified Parties under Section 7.7).
The power of attorney granted in this Section 11.1 is coupled with an interest
and is irrevocable, may be delegated by the Equityholders' Representative and
shall survive the death or incapacity of each Equityholder. Such agency may be
changed by the holders of a majority in interest of the Indemnity Escrow Fund
from time to time (including in the event of the liquidation or dissolution of
the Equityholders' Representative), and any such successor shall succeed the
Equityholders' Representative as Equityholders' Representative hereunder. No
bond shall be required of the Equityholders' Representative, and the
Equityholders' Representative shall receive no compensation for its services.

(b) Limitation on Liability. The Equityholders' Representative shall not be
liable to any Person for any act of the Equityholders' Representative taken in
good faith and in the exercise of its reasonable judgment and arising out of or
in connection with the acceptance or administration of its duties under this
Agreement and the Escrow Agreement (it being understood that any act done or
omitted pursuant to the advice of legal counsel shall be conclusive evidence of
such good faith and reasonable judgment), except to the extent any liability,
loss, damage, penalty, fine, cost or expense is actually incurred by such Person
as a proximate result of the gross negligence or bad faith of the Equityholders'
Representative. The Equityholders' Representative shall not be liable for, and
may seek indemnification from the Equityholders for, any liability, loss,
damage, penalty, fine, cost or expense incurred by the Equityholders'
Representative while acting in good faith and in the exercise of its reasonable
judgment and arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or
administration of his duties under this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement,
except to the extent that any such liability, loss, damage, penalty, fine, cost
or expense is the proximate result of the gross negligence or bad faith of the
Equityholders' Representative. The Equityholders' Representative shall be
entitled to recover any out-of-pocket costs and expenses reasonably incurred by
the Equityholders' Representative in connection with actions taken by the
Equityholders' Representative pursuant to the terms of Section 2.8, Article X or
the Escrow Agreement (including the hiring of legal counsel and the incurring of
legal fees and costs) from the Equityholders. The Equityholders' Representative
shall be permitted to withhold an amount equal to $100,000 from the Merger
Consideration, which amount shall be treated as Transaction Expenses hereunder.
The Equityholders' Representative shall also be entitled to recover from each
Equityholder such Equityholder's ratable share of any and all liabilities,
losses, damages, claims, costs or expenses suffered or incurred by the
Equityholders' Representative arising out of or resulting from any action taken
or omitted to be taken by the Equityholders' Representative under this Agreement
or the Escrow Agreement.

(c) Access. From and after the Effective Time, Parent shall cause the Surviving
Corporation to provide the Equityholders' Representative with reasonable access
to information about the Surviving Corporation and the reasonable assistance of
the officers and employees of Parent and the Surviving Corporation for purposes
of performing his duties and exercising his rights under this Agreement,
provided, that the Equityholders' Representative shall treat confidentially any
nonpublic information about the Surviving Corporation (except in connection with
the performance by the Equityholders' Representative of its duties or the
exercise of its rights under this Agreement).

(d) Actions of the Equityholders' Representative. From and after the Effective
Time, a decision, act, consent or instruction of the Equityholders'
Representative shall constitute a decision of all Equityholders and shall be
final, binding and conclusive upon each Equityholder, and the Escrow Agent and
Parent may rely upon any decision, act, consent or instruction of the
Equityholders' Representative as being the decision, act, consent or instruction
of each Equityholder. Parent is hereby relieved from any liability to any Person
for any acts done by Parent in accordance with any such decision, act, consent
or instruction of the Equityholders' Representative.

SECTION 11.2 Expenses. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement,
all costs and expenses (including all fees and disbursements of counsel,
financial advisors and accountants) incurred in connection with the negotiation
and preparation of this Agreement, the performance of the terms of this
Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement, shall be paid by the respective party incurring such costs and
expenses, whether or not the Closing shall have occurred.

SECTION 11.3 Costs and Attorneys' Fees. Subject to the limitations set forth
herein, including Article X, in the event that any action, suit or other
proceeding is instituted concerning or arising out of this Agreement, the
prevailing party shall recover all of such party's costs and reasonable
attorneys' fees incurred in connection with each and every such action, suit or
other proceeding, including any and all appeals and petitions therefrom.

SECTION 11.4 Notices. All notices, requests, demands and other communications
under this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly
given or made as follows: (i) if sent by registered nationally recognized
receipted overnight air courier, one (1) Business Day after mailing; (ii) if

commercially reasonable efforts to substitute one or more valid, legal and
enforceable terms or provisions into this Agreement which, insofar as

or within certain jurisdictions shall remain in full force and effect to the
extent not held invalid or unenforceable to the extent consistent with the
intent of the parties as reflected by this Agreement. To the extent permitted by

entitled to the benefits thereof only by a written instrument signed by the
party granting such waiver. No delay on the part of any party to this Agreement
in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver
thereof, nor shall any waiver on the part of any party to this Agreement of any
right, power or privilege hereunder operate as a waiver of any other right,

thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege hereunder. Unless
otherwise provided, the rights and remedies provided for in this Agreement are

Federal court; and (iv) waives, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, the
defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding
in any such Delaware State or Federal court. Each of the parties to this

shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the
judgment or in any other manner provided by Law. Each of the parties to this
Agreement hereby irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner
provided for notices in Section 11.4. Nothing in this Agreement shall affect the
right of any party to this Agreement to serve process in any other manner

agents, is making any representation or warranty whatsoever, oral or written,
express or implied, other than those set forth in this Agreement and any
Ancillary Document (as qualified by the Company Disclosure Schedule), and none
of the parties to this Agreement is relying on any statement, representation or
warranty, oral or written, express or implied, made by another party to this
Agreement or such other party's Affiliates, representatives or agents, except

SECTION 11.15 Equitable Remedies. Each of the parties to this Agreement
acknowledges and agrees that the other parties to this Agreement would be
irreparably damaged in the event that any of the terms or provisions of this

are breached. Therefore, notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in
this Agreement, each of the parties to this Agreement hereby agrees that the
other parties to this Agreement shall be entitled to an injunction or
injunctions to prevent breaches of any of the terms or provisions of this
Agreement, and to enforce specifically the performance by such first party under
this Agreement, and each party to this Agreement hereby agrees to waive the
defense in any such suit that the other parties to this Agreement have an
adequate remedy at law and to interpose no opposition, legal or otherwise, as to
the propriety of injunction or specific performance as a remedy, and hereby
agrees to waive any requirement to post any bond in connection with obtaining
such relief. The equitable remedies described in this Section 11.15 shall be in
addition to, and not in lieu of, any other remedies at law or in equity that the
parties to this Agreement may elect to pursue.

      6.2          Severability.  Any term or provision of this Agreement that is invalid or unenforceable in any situation in any jurisdiction shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the remaining terms and provisions hereof or the validity or enforceability of the offending term or provision in any other situation or in any other jurisdiction.  If the final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction declares that any term or provision hereof is invalid or unenforceable, the parties hereto agree that the court making such determination shall have the power to limit the term or provision, to delete specific words or phrases, or to replace any invalid or unenforceable term or provision with a term or provision that is valid and enforceable and that comes closest to
      expressing the intention of the invalid or unenforceable term or provision, and this Agreement shall be enforceable as so modified.  In the event such court does not exercise the power granted to it in the prior sentence, the parties hereto agree to replace such invalid or unenforceable term or provision with a valid and enforceable term or provision that will achieve, to the extent possible, the economic, business and other purposes of such invalid or unenforceable term.

      6.3          Entire Agreement.  This Agreement, the Proxy and any other documents delivered by the parties in connection herewith constitute the entire agreement between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof and supersede all prior agreements and understandings between the parties with respect thereto.  No addition to or modification of any provision of this Agreement shall be binding upon either party unless made in writing and signed by both parties.

      6.4          Assignment; Binding Effect.  Except as provided herein, neither this Agreement nor any of the interests or obligations hereunder may be assigned or delegated by Stockholder, and any attempted or purported assignment or delegation of any of such interests or obligations shall be void.  Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement shall be binding upon Stockholder and Stockholder’s heirs, estate, executors and personal representatives and Stockholder’s successors and assigns, and shall inure to the benefit of Parent and its successors and assigns.  Without limiting any of the restrictions (but subject to the limitations) set forth in Section 2 or elsewhere in this Agreement, this Agreement shall be binding upon any Person to whom any Subject
      Shares are transferred.  Nothing in this Agreement is intended to confer on any Person (other than Parent and its successors and assigns) any rights or remedies of any nature.

      6.5          Specific Performance.  The parties agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement or the Proxy were not performed in accordance with its specific terms or were otherwise breached.  Stockholder agrees that, in the event of any breach or threatened breach by Stockholder of any covenant or obligation contained in this Agreement or in the Proxy, Parent shall be entitled (in addition to any other remedy that may be available to it, including monetary damages) to seek and obtain (a) a decree or order of specific performance to enforce the observance and performance of such covenant or obligation, and (b) an injunction restraining such breach or threatened breach.  

      6.6          Governing Law; Jurisdiction.  This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Delaware, regardless of the laws that might otherwise govern under applicable principles of conflicts of laws thereof.  In any action between the parties arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement each of the parties irrevocably and unconditionally consents and submits to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the state and federal courts located in the State of Delaware.

      6.7          Counterparts.  This Agreement may be executed in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be an original, but all such counterparts shall together constitute one and the same instrument.

      EXHIBIT A

      FORM OF IRREVOCABLE PROXY

       

      The undersigned stockholder (the “Stockholder”) of HANNA ANDERSSON CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), hereby irrevocably (to the fullest extent permitted by law) appoints and constitutes Kellwood Company, a Delaware corporation (“Parent”), Newkell V, Inc. (“Merger Sub”), and each of them, the lawful proxy of the Stockholder, with full power of substitution and resubstitution, to the full extent of the Stockholder’s rights with respect to the outstanding shares of capital stock of the Company owned of record by the Stockholder as
      of the date of this proxy, which shares are specified on the final page of this proxy.  (The shares of the capital stock of the Company referred to in the immediately preceding sentence are referred to as the “Shares.”)  Upon the execution hereof, all prior proxies given by the Stockholder with respect to any of the Shares are hereby revoked, and the Stockholder agrees that no subsequent proxies will be given with respect to any of the Shares.

       

      This proxy is irrevocable, is coupled with an interest and is granted in connection with, and as security for, the Voting Agreement, dated as of the date hereof, between Parent and the Stockholder (the “Voting Agreement”), and is granted in consideration of Parent entering into the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of the date hereof, among Parent, Merger Sub, a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent, the Company and [Castanea, Inc.], as Equityholders’ Representative (the “Merger Agreement”).  This proxy will terminate on the Expiration Date (as defined in the Voting Agreement).  

       

      The proxies named above will be empowered, and may exercise this proxy, to vote the Shares at any time until the earlier to occur of the valid termination of the Merger Agreement or the effective time of the merger contemplated thereby (the “Merger”) at any duly convened meeting of the stockholders of the Company and in connection with any written action by consent of stockholders of the Company:

       

      (a)            in favor of the Merger, the adoption by the Company of the Merger Agreement and the approval of the terms thereof and each of the other transactions expressly contemplated by the Merger Agreement and requiring stockholder approval;

       

      (b)           against any action, proposal, transaction or agreement that, to the actual knowledge of Stockholder, would result in a material breach in any covenant or agreement of the Company under the Merger Agreement or of the Stockholders under this Agreement; and

      (c)           except as otherwise agreed to in writing in advance by Parent, against the following actions or proposals (other than the transactions contemplated by or otherwise permitted by the Merger Agreement): 

      (i)            any extraordinary corporate transaction, such as a merger, consolidation or other business combination involving the Company;

      (ii)          a sale, lease or transfer of a significant part of the assets of the Company, or a reorganization, recapitalization, dissolution or liquidation of the Company;

      (iii)         any change in the persons who constitute the board of directors of the Company that is not approved in advance by at least a majority of the persons who were directors of the Company as of the date of this Agreement (or their successors who were so approved);

      (iv)         any change in the present capitalization of the Company or any amendment of the Company’s certificate of incorporation or bylaws;

      

      	
                   
 	
                  (v)
 	
                  any other material change in the Company’s corporate structure; or

      (vi)         any other action or proposal involving the Company that, to the actual knowledge of Stockholder, is intended, or could reasonably be expected, to prevent, impede, interfere with, delay, postpone, or adversely affect the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement.

      The Stockholder may vote the Shares in his, her or its full discretion on all other matters not referred to in this proxy, and the attorneys and proxies named above may not exercise this proxy with respect to such other matters.   

       

      This proxy shall be binding upon the heirs, estate, executors, personal representatives, successors and assigns of the Stockholder (including any transferee of any of the Shares).
