    RIGHTS
      AGREEMENT

    

    This
      RIGHTS AGREEMENT, dated as of February 12, 2008 (this “Agreement”), is made and
      entered into by and between Clarus Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the
      “Company”), and American
      Stock Transfer & Trust Company,
      a New
      York corporation, as Rights Agent (the “Rights Agent”).

    

    RECITALS

    

    WHEREAS,
      the Company has experienced substantial operating losses in previous years,
      and
      under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and rules
      promulgated by the Internal Revenue Service, the Company may “carry forward” its
      net operating losses (the “NOLs”) in certain circumstances to offset current and
      future earnings, and thus reduce its federal income tax liability (subject
      to
      certain requirements and restrictions); 

    

    WHEREAS,
      if the Company experiences an “Ownership Change,” as defined in Section 382
      of the Code, its ability to use its NOLs could be substantially limited or
      lost
      altogether; 

    

    WHEREAS,
      the Company believes that its NOLs are a substantial asset of the Company and
      that it is in the best interest of the Company and its stockholders that the
      Company provide for the protection of the Company’s NOLs on the terms and
      conditions set forth herein; and 

    

    WHEREAS,
      on February 7, 2008, the Board of Directors of the Company authorized and
      declared a dividend distribution of one right (a “Right”) for each share of
      Common Stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of the Company (a “Common Share”)
      outstanding as of the Close of Business (as hereinafter defined) on February
      12,
      2008 (the “Record Date”), each Right initially representing the right to
      purchase one one-hundredth of a Preferred Share (as hereinafter defined), on
      the
      terms and subject to the conditions herein set forth, and further authorized
      and
      directed the issuance of one Right (subject to adjustment as provided herein)
      with respect to each Common Share issued or delivered by the Company (whether
      originally issued or delivered from the Company’s treasury) after the Record
      Date but prior to the earlier of the Distribution Date (as hereinafter defined)
      and the Expiration Date (as hereinafter defined) or as provided in Section
      22.

    

    NOW,
      THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual agreements herein set forth, the
      parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        
        

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

     

    1. Certain
      Definitions.For
      purposes of this Agreement, the following terms have the meanings indicated:
      

     

    
      	 	
              (a)

            	
              “Acquiring
                Person” means any Person (other than the Company, any Related Person or
                any Exempt Person) who or which, together with all Affiliates and
                Associates of such Person, shall be the Beneficial Owner of 4.9%
                or more
                of the then outstanding Common Shares; provided,
                however,
                that: (i) if, as of February 12, 2008, any Person is the Beneficial
                Owner
                of 4.9% or more of the outstanding Common Shares, such Person shall
                not be
                deemed to be an Acquiring Person unless and until such time as (A)
                such
                Person or any Affiliate or Associate of such Person thereafter becomes
                the
                Beneficial Owner of any additional Common Shares, other than as a
                result
                of a stock dividend, stock split or similar transaction effected
                by the
                Company in which all holders of Common Shares are treated substantially
                equally, or (B) any other Person who is the Beneficial Owner of Common
                Shares thereafter becomes an Affiliate or Associate of such Person,
                provided
                that the foregoing exclusion shall cease to apply with respect to
                any
                Person at such time as such Person, together with all Affiliates
                and
                Associates of such Person, ceases to Beneficially Own 4.9% or more
                of the
                then outstanding Common Shares, and (ii) a Person will not be deemed
                to
                have become an Acquiring Person solely as a result of an acquisition
                of
                Common Shares by the Company which reduces the number of Common Shares
                outstanding unless and until such time as (A) such Person or any
                Affiliate
                or Associate of such Person thereafter becomes the Beneficial Owner
                of
                additional Common Shares, other than as a result of a stock dividend,
                stock split or similar transaction effected by the Company in which
                all
                holders of Common Shares are treated substantially equally, or (B)
                any
                other Person who is the Beneficial Owner of Common Shares thereafter
                becomes an Affiliate or Associate of such Person. Notwithstanding
                the
                foregoing, if the Board determines that a Person who would otherwise
                be an
                “Acquiring Person” as defined pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this
                Section 1(a) has become such inadvertently (including, without limitation,
                because (A) such Person was unaware that it Beneficially Owned a
                percentage of Common Shares that would otherwise cause such Person
                to be
                an Acquiring Person or (B) such Person was aware of the extent of
                its
                Beneficial Ownership of Common Shares but had no actual knowledge
                of the
                consequences of such Beneficial Ownership under this Agreement),
                and such
                Person divests as promptly as practicable (as determined by the Board)
                a
                sufficient number of Common Shares so that such Person would no longer
                be
                an “Acquiring Person” as defined pursuant to the foregoing provisions of
                this Section 1(a), then such Person shall not be deemed to be an
                “Acquiring Person” for any purposes of this Agreement unless and until

              Until
                the Distribution Date, (i) the Rights will be evidenced by the
                certificates representing Common Shares registered in the names of
                the
                record holders thereof (which certificates representing Common Shares
                will
                also be deemed to be Right Certificates), (ii) the Rights will be
                transferable only in connection with the transfer of the underlying
                Common
                Shares and (iii) the surrender for transfer of any certificates evidencing
                Common Shares in respect of which Rights have been issued will also
                constitute the transfer of the Rights associated with the Common
                Shares
                evidenced by such certificates. On or as promptly as practicable

                on the
                Record Date, at the address of such holder shown on the records of
                the
                Company as of such date, a copy of a Summary of Rights to Purchase
                Preferred Stock in substantially the form attached as Exhibit C.
                

            

    

     

    
      	 	
              (b)

            	
              Rights
                will be issued by the Company in respect of all Common Shares (other
                than

                issued or
                delivered by the Company (whether originally issued or delivered
                from the
                Company’s treasury) after the Record Date but prior to the earlier of the
                Distribution Date and the Expiration Date. Certificates evidencing
                such
                Common Shares will have stamped on, impressed on, printed on, written
                on,
                or otherwise affixed to them the following legend or such similar
                legend
                as the Company may deem appropriate and as is not inconsistent with
                the
                provisions of this Agreement, or as may be required to comply with
                any
                applicable law or with any rule or regulation made pursuant thereto
                or
                with any rule or regulation of any stock exchange or transaction
                reporting
                system on which the Common Shares may from time to time be listed
                or
                quoted, or to conform to usage: 

            

    

     

    This
      Certificate also evidences and entitles the holder hereof to certain Rights
      as
      set forth in a Rights Agreement between Clarus Corporation and American
      Stock Transfer & Trust Company,
      dated
      as of February
      12, 2008 (the “Rights Agreement”), the terms of which are hereby incorporated
      herein by reference and a copy of which is on file at the principal executive
      offices of Clarus Corporation. The Rights are not exercisable prior to the
      occurrence of certain events specified in the Rights Agreement. Under certain
      circumstances, as set forth in the Rights Agreement, such Rights may be
      redeemed, may be exchanged, may expire, may be amended or may be evidenced
      by
      separate certificates and no longer be evidenced by this Certificate. Clarus
      Corporation will mail to the holder of this Certificate a copy of the Rights
      Agreement, as in effect on the date of mailing, without charge promptly after
      receipt of a written request therefor. Under certain circumstances as set forth
      in the Rights Agreement, Rights that are or were beneficially owned by an
      Acquiring Person or any Affiliate or Associate of an Acquiring Person (as such
      terms are defined in the Rights Agreement) may become null and
      void.

              Any
                Right Certificate issued pursuant to this Section 3 that represents
                Rights
                beneficially owned by an Acquiring Person or any Associate or Affiliate
                thereof and any Right Certificate issued at any time upon the transfer
                of
                any Rights to an Acquiring Person or any Associate or Affiliate thereof
                or

                any
                Right Certificate issued pursuant to Section 6 or 11 hereof upon
                transfer,
                exchange, replacement or adjustment of any other Right Certificate
                referred to in this sentence, shall be subject to and contain the
                following legend or such similar legend as the Company may deem
                appropriate and as is not inconsistent with the provisions of this
                Agreement, or as may be required to comply with any applicable law
                or with
                any rule or regulation made pursuant thereto or with any rule or
                regulation of any stock exchange on which the Rights may from time

    The
      Rights represented by this Right Certificate are or were beneficially owned
      by a
      Person who was an Acquiring Person or an Affiliate or an Associate of an
      Acquiring Person (as such terms are defined in the Rights Agreement). This
      Right
      Certificate and the Rights represented hereby may become null and void in the
      circumstances specified in Section 11(a)(ii) or Section 13 of the Rights
      Agreement.

              As
                promptly as practicable after the Distribution Date, the Company
                will
                prepare and execute, the Rights Agent will countersign and the Company
                will send or cause to be sent (and the Rights Agent will, if requested
                and
                if provided with all necessary information, send), by first class,
                insured, postage prepaid mail, to each record holder of Common Shares
                as
                of the Close of Business on the Distribution Date, at the address
                of such
                holder shown on the records of the Company, a Right Certificate evidencing
                one Right for each Common Share so held, subject to adjustment as
                provided
                herein. As of and after the Distribution Date, the Rights will be
                evidenced solely by such Right Certificates. The Company shall promptly
                notify the Rights Agent in writing upon the occurrence of the Distribution
                Date and, if such notification is given orally, the Company shall
                confirm
                same in writing on or prior to the Business Day next following. Until
                such
                notice is received by the Rights Agent, the Rights Agent may presume
                conclusively that the Distribution Date has not
                occurred.

                the event that the Company purchases or otherwise acquires any Common
                Shares after the Record Date but prior to the Distribution Date,
                any
                Rights associated with such Common Shares will be deemed canceled
                and

                Rights

      The

      assignment to be printed on the reverse thereof) will be substantially in the
      form attached as Exhibit B with such changes and marks of identification or
      designation, and such legends, summaries or endorsements printed thereon, as
      the
      Company may deem appropriate and as are not inconsistent with the provisions
      of
      this Agreement, or as may be required to comply with any applicable law or
      with
      any rule or regulation made pursuant thereto or with any rule or regulation
      of
      any stock exchange or transaction reporting system on which the Rights may
      from
      time to time be listed or quoted, or to conform to usage. Subject to the
      provisions of Section 22, the Right Certificates, whenever issued, on their
      face
      will entitle the holders thereof to purchase such number of one one-hundredths
      of a Preferred Share as are set forth therein at the Purchase Price set forth
      therein, but the Purchase Price, the number and kind of securities issuable
      upon
      exercise of each Right and the number of Rights outstanding will be subject
      to
      adjustment as provided herein.

     

    5. Countersignature
      and Registration.

     

    
      	 	
              (a)

            	
              The
                Right Certificates will be executed on behalf of the Company by its
                Chairman of the Board of Directors, its Chief Executive Officer,
                Chief
                Financial Officer or any Vice President, either manually or by facsimile
                signature, and will have affixed thereto the Company’s seal or a facsimile
                thereof which will be attested by the Secretary or an Assistant Secretary
                of the Company, either manually or by facsimile signature. The Right
                Certificates will be manually countersigned by the Rights Agent and
                will
                not be valid for any purpose unless so countersigned. In case any
                officer
                of the Company who signed any of the Right Certificates ceases to
                be such
                officer of the Company before countersignature by the Rights Agent
                and
                issuance and delivery by the Company, such Right Certificates,
                nevertheless, may be countersigned by the Rights Agent, and issued
                and
                delivered by the Company with the same force and effect as though
                the
                person who signed such Right Certificates had not ceased to be such
                officer of the Company; and any Right Certificate may be signed on
                behalf
                of the Company by any person who, at the actual date of the execution
                of
                such Right Certificate, is a proper officer of the Company to sign
                such
                Right Certificate, although at the date of the execution of this
                Rights
                Agreement any such person was not such officer.

            

    

     

    
      	 	
              (b)

                the Distribution Date, receipt by the Rights Agent of notice to that
                effect and all other relevant information referred to in Section
                3(d), the
                Rights Agent will keep or cause to be kept, at the office of the
                Rights
                Agent designated for such purpose and at such other offices as may
                be
                required to comply with any applicable law or with any rule or regulation
                made pursuant thereto or with any rule or regulation of any stock
                exchange
                or any transaction reporting system on which the Rights may from
                time to
                time be listed or quoted, books for registration and transfer of
                the Right
                Certificates issued hereunder. Such books will show the names and
                addresses of the respective holders of the Right Certificates, the
                number
                of Rights evidenced on its face by each of the Right Certificates
                and the
                date of each of the Right
                Certificates.

                to the provisions of Sections 7(d) and 14, at any time after the
                Close of
                Business on the Distribution Date and prior to the Expiration Date,
                any
                Right Certificate or Right Certificates representing exercisable
                Rights
                may be transferred, split up, combined or exchanged for another Right
                Certificate or Right Certificates, entitling the registered holder
                to
                purchase a like number of one one-hundredths of a Preferred Share
                (or
                other securities, as the case may be) as the Right Certificate or
                Right
                Certificates surrendered then entitled such holder (or former holder
                in
                the case of a transfer) to purchase. Any registered holder desiring
                to
                transfer, split up, combine or exchange any such Right Certificate
                or
                Rights Certificates must make such request in a writing delivered
                to the

                Certificates to be transferred, split up, combined or exchanged at
                the

                Certificates are transferable only on the registry books of the Rights
                Agent. Neither the Rights Agent nor the Company shall be obligated
                to take
                any action whatsoever with respect to the transfer of any such surrendered
                Right Certificate or Right Certificates until the registered holder
                thereof shall have (i) completed and signed the certificate contained
                in
                the form of assignment set forth on the reverse side of each such
                Right
                Certificate, (ii) provided such additional evidence of the identity
                of the
                Beneficial Owner (or former Beneficial Owner) thereof and of the
                Rights
                evidenced thereby and the Affiliates and Associates of such Beneficial
                Owner (or former Beneficial Owner) as the Company or the Rights Agent
                shall reasonably request and (iii) paid a sum sufficient to cover
                any tax
                or charge that may be imposed in connection with any transfer, split
                up,
                combination or exchange of Right Certificates as required by Section
                9(c)
                hereof. Thereupon the Rights Agent shall countersign and deliver
                to the
                Person entitled thereto a Right Certificate or Right Certificates,
                as the
                case may be, as so requested, registered in such name or names as
                may be
                designated by the surrendering registered holder. The Rights Agent
                shall
                promptly forward any such sum collected by it to the Company or to
                such
                Persons as the Company shall specify by written notice. The Rights
                Agent
                shall have no duty or obligation under this Section unless and until
                it is
                satisfied that all such taxes and/or governmental charges have been
                paid.

              Upon
                receipt by the Company and the Rights Agent of evidence reasonably
                satisfactory to them of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation
                of a
                Right Certificate and, in case of loss, theft or destruction, of

                reasonable expenses incidental thereto, and upon surrender to the
                Rights
                Agent and cancellation of the Right Certificate if mutilated, the
                Company
                will prepare, execute and deliver a new Right Certificate of like
                tenor to
                the Rights Agent and the Rights Agent will countersign and deliver

                new Right Certificate to the registered holder in lieu of the Right
                Certificate so lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated.

              (b)

            	
              Upon
                receipt of a Right Certificate representing exercisable Rights with
                the

                directs its transfer agent to comply with all such requests) or (B),
                if
                the Company elects to deposit Preferred Shares issuable upon exercise
                of
                the Rights hereunder with a depositary agent, requisition from the

                agent to
                comply with all such requests), (ii) after receipt of such certificates

                appropriate, after receipt of such certificates, cause the same to
                be
                delivered to or upon the order of the registered holder of such Right
                Certificate, registered in such name or names as may be designated

              (c)

            	
              In
                case the registered holder of any Right Certificate exercises less
                than
                all the Rights evidenced thereby, the Rights Agent will prepare,
                execute
                and deliver a new Right Certificate evidencing Rights equivalent
                to the
                Rights remaining unexercised to the registered holder of such Right
                Certificate or to his duly authorized assigns, subject to the provisions
                of Section 14 hereof.

              (d)

            	
              Notwithstanding
                anything in this Agreement to the contrary, neither the Rights Agent
                nor
                the Company will be obligated to undertake any action with respect
                to any
                purported transfer, split up, combination or exchange of any Right
                Certificate pursuant to Section 6 or exercise of a Right Certificate
                as
                set forth in this Section 7 unless the registered holder of such
                Right
                Certificate has (i) duly and properly completed and signed the certificate
                following the form of assignment or the form of election to purchase,
                as
                applicable, set forth on the reverse side of the Right Certificate
                surrendered for such transfer, split up, combination, exchange or
                exercise
                and (ii) provided such additional evidence of the identity of the
                Beneficial Owner (or former Beneficial Owner) thereof and of the
                Rights
                evidenced thereby and Affiliates and Associates thereof as the Company
                or
                the Rights Agent may reasonably request.

            

    

     

    8. Cancellation
      and Destruction of Right
      Certificates.
      All
      Right Certificates surrendered for the purpose of exercise, transfer, split
      up,
      combination or exchange will, if surrendered to the Company or to any of its
      transfer agents, be delivered to the Rights Agent for cancellation or in
      canceled form, or, if surrendered to the Rights Agent, will be canceled by
      it,
      and no Right Certificates will be issued in lieu thereof except as expressly
      permitted by the provisions of this Agreement. The Company will deliver to
      the
      Rights Agent for cancellation and retirement, and the Rights Agent will so
      cancel and retire, any other Right Certificate purchased or acquired by the
      Company otherwise than upon the exercise thereof. The Rights Agent will deliver
      all canceled Right Certificates to the Company, or will, at the written request
      of the Company, destroy such canceled Right Certificates, and in such case,
      will
      deliver a certificate of destruction thereof to the Company.

     

    9. Company
      Covenants Concerning Securities and
      Rights.
      The
      Company covenants and agrees that:

     

    
      	 	
              (a)

            	
              It
                will cause to be reserved and kept available out of its authorized
                and
                unissued Preferred Shares or any Preferred Shares held in its treasury,
                a
                number of Preferred Shares that will be sufficient to permit the
                exercise
                in full of all outstanding Rights in accordance with Section
                7.

            

    

     

    
      	 	
              (b)

            	
              It
                will take all such action as may be necessary to ensure that all
                Preferred
                Shares (and, following the occurrence of a Triggering Event, Common
                Shares
                and/or other securities) delivered upon exercise of Rights, at the
                time of
                delivery of the certificates for such securities, will be (subject
                to
                payment of the Purchase Price) duly authorized, validly issued, fully
                paid
                and nonassessable securities.

            

    

     

    
      	 	
              (c)

            	
              It
                will pay, when due and payable, any and all federal and state taxes
                and
                charges that may be payable in respect of the issuance or delivery
                of the
                Right Certificates and of any certificates representing securities
                issued
                upon the exercise of Rights; provided,
                however,
                that the Company will not be required to pay any tax or charge which
                may
                be payable in respect of any transfer or delivery of Right Certificates
                to
                a person other than, or the issuance or delivery of certificates
                or
                depositary receipts representing securities issued upon the exercise
                of
                Rights in a name other than that of, the registered holder of the
                Right
                Certificate evidencing Rights surrendered for exercise, or to issue
                or
                deliver any certificates or depositary receipts representing securities
                issued upon the exercise of any Rights until any such tax or charge
                has
                been paid (any such tax or charge being payable by the holder of
                such
                Right Certificate at the time of surrender) or until it has been
                established to the Company’s reasonable satisfaction that no such tax is
                due.

              (d)

            	
              If
                the Company determines that registration under the Securities Act
                is
                required, then the Company shall use its best efforts (i) to file,
                as soon
                as practicable following the later of the Share Acquisition Date
                and the
                Distribution Date, on an appropriate form, a registration statement
                under
                the Securities Act with respect to the securities issuable upon exercise
                of the Rights, (ii) to cause such registration statement to become
                effective as soon as practicable after such filing and (iii) to cause
                such
                registration statement to remain effective (with a prospectus at
                all times
                meeting the requirements of the Securities Act) until the earlier
                of (A)
                the date as of which the Rights are no longer exercisable for such
                securities and (B) the Expiration Date. The Company will also take
                such
                action as may be appropriate under, or to ensure compliance with,
                the
                securities or “blue sky” laws of the various states in connection with the
                exercisability of the Rights. The Company may suspend the exercisability
                of the Rights in order to prepare and file such registration statement
                and
                to permit it to become effective or to qualify the Rights, the exercise
                thereof or the issuance of Common Shares upon the exercise thereof
                under
                state securities or “blue sky” laws. Upon any such suspension, the Company
                will issue a public announcement stating that the exercisability
                of the
                Rights has been suspended, as well as a public announcement at such
                time
                as the suspension is no longer in effect. The Company shall notify
                the
                Rights Agent in writing whenever it makes a public announcement pursuant
                to this Section 9(d) and give the Rights Agent a copy of such
                announcement. In addition, if the Company determines that a registration
                statement or other document should be filed under the Securities
                Act or
                any state securities or “blue sky” laws following the Distribution Date,
                the Company may suspend the exercisability of the Rights in each
                relevant
                jurisdiction until such time as a registration statement has been
                declared
                effective or any such other document filed and, if required, approved,
                and, upon any such suspension, the Company will issue a public
                announcement stating that the exercisability of the Rights has been
                suspended, as well as a public announcement at such time as the suspension
                is no longer in effect. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement
                to the
                contrary, the Rights will not be exercisable in any jurisdiction
                if the
                requisite registration or qualification in such jurisdiction has
                not been
                effected or the exercise of the Rights is not permitted under applicable
                law.

                anything in this Agreement to the contrary, after the later of the
                Share
                Acquisition Date and the Distribution Date, the Company will not
                take (or
                permit any Subsidiary to take) any action if at the time such action
                is
                taken it is reasonably foreseeable that such action will eliminate
                or
                otherwise diminish the benefits intended to be afforded by the Rights.

                of the
                Company and/or pay cash pursuant to Section 11, 13, 14 or 24, it
                will make
                all arrangements necessary so that such other securities and/or cash
                are
                available for distribution by the Rights Agent, if and when appropriate.

    10. Record
      Date.
      Each
      Person in whose name any certificate representing Preferred Shares (or Common
      Shares and/or other securities, as the case may be) is issued upon the exercise
      of Rights will for all purposes be deemed to have become the holder of record
      of
      the Preferred Shares (or Common Shares and/or other securities, as the case
      may
      be) represented thereby on, and such certificate will be dated, the date upon
      which the Right Certificate evidencing such Rights was duly surrendered and
      payment of the Purchase Price (and all applicable transfer taxes) was made;
      provided,
      however,
      that if
      the date of such surrender and payment is a date upon which the transfer books
      of the Company for the Preferred Shares (or Common Shares and/or other
      securities, as the case may be) are closed, such Person will be deemed to have
      become the record holder of such securities on, and such certificate will be
      dated, the next succeeding Business Day on which the transfer books of the
      Company for the Preferred Shares (or Common Shares and/or other securities,
      as
      the case may be) are open. Prior to the exercise of the Rights evidenced
      thereby, the holder of a Right Certificate will not be entitled to any rights
      of
      a holder of any security for which the Rights are or may become exercisable,
      including, without limitation, the right to vote, to receive dividends or other
      distributions, or to exercise any preemptive rights, and will not be entitled
      to
      receive any notice of any proceedings of the Company, except as provided herein.
      

     

    11. Adjustment
      of Purchase Price, Number and Kind of
      Securities or Number of Rights.
      The
      Purchase Price, the number and kind of securities issuable upon exercise of
      each
      Right and the number of Rights outstanding are subject to adjustment from time
      to time as provided in this Section 11. 

     

    
      	 	
              (a)

            	
              (i)

            	
              In
                the event that the Company at any time after the Record Date (A)
                declares
                a dividend on the Preferred Shares payable in Preferred Shares, (B)
                subdivides the outstanding Preferred Shares, (C) combines the outstanding
                Preferred Shares into a smaller number of Preferred Shares or (D)
                issues
                any shares of its capital stock in a reclassification of the Preferred
                Shares (including any such reclassification in connection with a
                consolidation or merger in which the Company is the continuing or
                surviving corporation), except as otherwise provided in this Section
                11(a), the Purchase Price in effect at the time of the record date
                for
                such dividend or of the effective date of such subdivision, combination
                or
                reclassification and/or the number and/or kind of shares of capital
                stock
                issuable on such date upon exercise of a Right, will be proportionately
                adjusted so that the holder of any Right exercised after such time
                is
                entitled to receive upon payment of the Purchase Price then in effect
                the
                aggregate number and kind of shares of capital stock which, if such
                Right
                had been exercised immediately prior to such date and at a time when
                the
                transfer books of the Company for the Preferred Shares were open,
                the
                holder of such Right would have owned upon such exercise (and, in
                the case
                of a reclassification, would have retained after giving effect to
                such
                reclassification ) and would have been entitled to receive by virtue
                of
                such dividend, subdivision, combination or reclassification; provided,
                however,
                that in no event shall the consideration to be paid upon the exercise
                of
                one Right be less than the aggregate par value of the shares of capital
                stock issuable upon exercise of one Right. If an event occurs which
                would
                require an adjustment under both this Section 11(a)(i) and Section
                11(a)(ii) or Section 13, the adjustment provided for in this Section
                11(a)(i) will be in addition to, and will be made prior to, any adjustment
                required pursuant to Section 11(a)(ii) or Section
                13.

              (ii)

            	
              Subject
                to the provisions of Section 24, if any Person becomes an Acquiring
                Person, then, and in each such case, from and after the Distribution
                Date,
                proper provision will be made so that each holder of a Right, except
                as
                provided below, will thereafter have the right to receive, upon exercise
                thereof in accordance with the terms of this Agreement at an exercise
                price per Right equal to the product of the then-current Purchase
                Price
                multiplied by the number of one one-hundredths of a Preferred Share
                for
                which a Right was exercisable immediately prior to the date of the
                occurrence of such Flip-in Event (or, if any other Flip-in Event
                shall
                have previously occurred, the product of the then-current Purchase
                Price
                multiplied by the number of one one-hundredths of a Preferred Share
                for
                which a Right was exercisable immediately prior to the date of the
                first
                occurrence of a Flip-in Event), in lieu of Preferred Shares, such
                number
                of Common Shares as equals the result obtained by (x) multiplying
                the
                then-current Purchase Price by the number of one one-hundredths of
                a
                Preferred Share for which a Right was exercisable immediately prior
                to the
                date of the occurrence of such Flip-in Event (or, if any other Flip-in
                Event shall have previously occurred, multiplying the then-current
                Purchase Price by the number of one one-hundredths of a Preferred
                Share
                for which a Right was exercisable immediately prior to the date of
                the
                first occurrence of a Flip-in Event), and dividing that product by
                (y) 50%
                of the current per share market price of the Common Shares (determined
                pursuant to Section 11(d)) on the date of the occurrence of such
                Flip-in
                Event. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary,
                from
                and after the first occurrence of a Flip-in Event, any Rights that
                are
                Beneficially Owned by (A) any Acquiring Person (or any Affiliate
                or
                Associate of any Acquiring Person), (B) a transferee of any Acquiring
                Person (or any such Affiliate or Associate) who becomes a transferee
                after
                the occurrence of a Flip-in Event, or (C) a transferee of any Acquiring
                Person (or any such Affiliate or Associate) who became a transferee
                prior
                to or concurrently with the occurrence of a Flip-in Event pursuant
                to
                either (1) a transfer from an Acquiring Person to holders of its
                equity
                securities or to any Person with whom it has any continuing agreement,
                arrangement or understanding regarding the transferred Rights or
                (2) a
                transfer which the directors of the Company have determined is part
                of a
                plan, arrangement or understanding which has the purpose or effect
                of
                avoiding the provisions of this Section 11(a)(ii), and subsequent
                transferees of any of such Persons, will be void without any further
                action and any holder of such Rights will thereafter have no rights
                whatsoever with respect to such Rights under any provision of this
                Agreement. The Company will use all reasonable efforts to ensure
                that the
                provisions of this Section 11(a)(ii) are complied with, but will
                have no
                liability to any holder of Right Certificates or any other Person
                as a
                result of its failure to make any determinations with respect to
                an
                Acquiring Person or its Affiliates, Associates or transferees hereunder.
                Upon the occurrence of a Flip-in Event, no Right Certificate that
                represents Rights that are or have become void pursuant to the provisions
                of this Section 11(a)(ii) will thereafter be issued pursuant to Section
                3
                or Section 6, and any Right Certificate delivered to the Rights Agent
                that
                represents Rights that are or have become void pursuant to the provisions
                of this Section 11(a)(ii) will be canceled. Upon the occurrence of
                a
                Flip-over Event, any Rights that shall not have been previously exercised
                pursuant to this Section 11(a)(ii) shall thereafter be exercisable
                only
                pursuant to Section 13 and not pursuant to this Section
                11(a)(ii).

              Upon
                the occurrence of a Flip-in Event, if there are not sufficient Common
                Shares authorized but unissued or issued but not outstanding to permit
                the
                issuance of all the Common Shares issuable in accordance with Section
                11(a)(ii) upon the exercise of a Right (the “Adjustment Shares”), the
                Board of Directors of the Company shall (A) determine the value of
                the
                Adjustment Shares issuable upon the exercise of a Right (the “Current
                Value”), and (B) with respect to each Right, make adequate provision to
                substitute for the Adjustment Shares, upon the exercise of a Right
                and
                payment of the applicable Purchase Price, (1) cash, (2) a reduction
                in the
                Purchase Price, (3) Common Shares or other equity securities of the
                Company (including, without limitation, shares, or units of shares,
                of
                preferred stock, such as the Preferred Shares, which the Board has
                deemed
                to have essentially the same value or economic rights as shares of
                Common
                Shares (such shares being referred to as “Equivalent Common Shares”)), (4)
                debt securities of the Company, (5) other assets, or (6) any combination
                of the foregoing, having an aggregate value equal to the Current
                Value
                (less the amount of any reduction in the Purchase Price), where such
                aggregate value has been determined by the Board based upon the advice
                of
                a nationally recognized investment banking firm selected by the Board;
                provided,
                however,
                that if the Company shall not have made adequate provision to deliver
                value pursuant to clause (B) above within thirty (30) days following
                the
                later of (x) the first occurrence of the events specified Section
                11(a)(ii) and (y) the date on which the Company’s right of redemption
                pursuant to Section 23(a) expires (the later of (x) and (y) being
                referred
                to herein as the “Section 11(a)(ii) Trigger Date”), then the Company shall
                be obligated to deliver, upon the surrender for exercise of a Right
                and
                without requiring payment of the Purchase Price, shares of Common
                Shares
                (to the extent available) and then, if necessary, cash, which shares
                and/or cash have an aggregate value equal to the Spread. For purposes
                of
                the preceding sentence, the term “Spread” shall mean the excess of (i) the
                Current Value over (ii) the Purchase Price. If the Board determines
                in
                good faith that it is likely that sufficient additional shares of
                Common
                Shares could be authorized for issuance upon exercise in full of
                the
                Rights, the thirty (30) day period set forth above may be extended
                to the
                extent necessary, but not more than ninety (90) days after the Section
                11(a)(ii) Trigger Date, in order that the Company may seek stockholder
                approval for the authorization of such additional shares (such thirty
                (30)
                day period, as it may be extended, is herein called the “Substitution
                Period”). To the extent that action is to be taken pursuant to the first
                and/or third sentences of this Section 11(a)(iii), the Company (1)
                shall
                provide, subject to the other provisions herein, that such action
                shall
                apply uniformly to all outstanding Rights, and (2) may suspend the
                exercisability of the Rights until the expiration of the Substitution
                Period in order to seek such stockholder approval for such authorization
                of additional shares and/or to decide the appropriate form of distribution
                to be made pursuant to such first sentence and to determine the value
                thereof. In the event of any such suspension, the Company shall issue
                a
                public announcement stating that the exercisability of the Rights
                has been
                temporarily suspended, as well as a public announcement at such time
                as
                the suspension is no longer in effect. For purposes of this Section
                11(a)(iii), the value of each Adjustment Share shall be the current
                market
                price per share of the Common Shares on the Section 11(a)(ii) Trigger
                Date
                and the per share or per unit value of any Equivalent Common Shares
                shall
                be deemed to equal the current market price per share of the Common
                Stock
                on such date.

                rights,
                options or warrants to all holders of Preferred Shares entitling
                them (for
                a period expiring within 45 calendar days after such record date)
                to
                subscribe for or purchase Preferred Shares (or securities having
                equivalent rights, privileges and preferences as the Preferred Shares
                (for
                purposes of this Section 11(b), “Equivalent Preferred Shares”)) or
                securities convertible into Preferred Shares or Equivalent Preferred
                Shares at a price per Preferred Share or Equivalent Preferred Share
                (or
                having a conversion price per share, if a security convertible into
                Preferred Shares or Equivalent Preferred Shares) less than the current
                per
                share market price of the Preferred Shares (determined pursuant to
                Section
                11(d)) on such record date, the Purchase Price to be in effect after
                such
                record date will be determined by multiplying the Purchase Price
                in effect
                immediately prior to such record date by a fraction, the numerator
                of
                which is the number of Preferred Shares outstanding on such record
                date
                plus the number of Preferred Shares which the aggregate offering
                price of
                the total number of Preferred Shares and/or Equivalent Preferred
                Shares so
                to be offered (and/or the aggregate initial conversion price of the
                convertible securities so to be offered) would purchase at such current
                per share market price and the denominator of which is the number
                of
                Preferred Shares outstanding on such record date plus the number
                of
                additional Preferred Shares and/or equivalent preferred shares to
                be
                offered for subscription or purchase (or into which the convertible
                securities so to be offered are initially convertible); provided,
                however,
                that in no event shall the consideration to be paid upon the exercise
                of
                one Right be less than the aggregate par value of the shares of capital
                stock issuable upon exercise of one Right. In case such subscription
                price
                may be paid in a consideration part or all of which is in a form
                other
                than cash, the value of such consideration will be as determined
                in good
                faith by the Board of Directors of the Company, whose determination
                will
                be described in a statement filed with the Rights Agent. Preferred
                Shares
                owned by or held for the account of the Company will not be deemed
                outstanding for the purpose of any such computation. Such adjustment
                will
                be made successively whenever such a record date is fixed, and in
                the
                event that such rights, options or warrants are not so issued, the
                Purchase Price will be adjusted to be the Purchase Price which would
                then
                be in effect if such record date had not been
                fixed.

              In
                the event that the Company fixes a record date for the making of
                a
                distribution to all holders of Preferred Shares (including any such
                distribution made in connection with a consolidation or merger in
                which
                the Company is the continuing or surviving corporation) of evidences
                of
                indebtedness, cash (other than a regular periodic cash dividend),
                assets,

                rights, options or warrants (excluding those referred to in Section
                11(b)), the Purchase Price to be in effect after such record date
                will be
                determined by multiplying the Purchase Price in effect immediately
                prior
                to such record date by a fraction, the numerator of which is the
                current
                per share market price of the Preferred Shares (as determined pursuant
                to
                Section 11(d)) on such record date or, if earlier, the date on which
                Preferred Shares begin to trade on an ex-dividend or when issued
                basis for
                such distribution, less the fair market value (as determined in good
                faith
                by the Board of Directors of the Company, whose determination will
                be
                described in a statement filed with the Rights Agent) of the portion
                of
                the evidences of indebtedness, cash, assets or stock so to be distributed
                or of such subscription rights, options or warrants applicable to
                one
                Preferred Share, and the denominator of which is such current per
                share
                market price of the Preferred Shares; provided,
                however,

                of
                one Right be less than the aggregate par value of the shares of capital
                stock issuable upon exercise of one Right. Such adjustments will
                be made
                successively whenever such a record date is fixed; and in the event
                that
                such distribution is not so made, the Purchase Price will again be
                adjusted to be the Purchase Price which would then be in effect if

              For
                the purpose of any computation hereunder, the “Current Per Share Market
                Price of Common Shares” on any date will be deemed to be the average of
                the daily closing prices per share of such Common Shares for the
                30
                consecutive Trading Days immediately prior to such date; provided,
                however,
                that in the event that the Current Per Share Market Price of Common
                Shares
                is determined during a period following the announcement by the issuer
                of
                such Common Shares of (A) a dividend or distribution on such Common
                Shares
                payable in such Common Shares or securities convertible into such
                Common
                Shares (other than the Rights) or (B) any subdivision, combination
                or
                reclassification of such Common Shares, and prior to the expiration
                of 30
                Trading Days after the ex-dividend date for such dividend or distribution,
                or the record date for such subdivision, combination or reclassification,
                then, and in each such case, the current per share market price will
                be
                appropriately adjusted to take into account ex-dividend trading or
                to
                reflect the current per share market price per Common Share equivalent.
                The closing price for each day will be the last sale price, regular
                way,
                or, in case no such sale takes place on such day, the average of
                the
                closing bid and asked prices, regular way, in either case, as reported
                in
                the principal consolidated transaction reporting system with respect
                to
                securities listed or admitted to trading on Nasdaq or, if the Common
                Shares are not listed or admitted to trading on Nasdaq, as reported

                principal consolidated transaction reporting system with respect
                to
                securities listed on the principal national securities exchange on
                which
                the Common Shares are listed or admitted to trading or, if the Common
                Shares are not listed or admitted to trading on any national securities
                exchange, the last quoted price or, if not so quoted, the average
                of the
                high bid and low asked prices in the over-the-counter market, as
                reported

                the
                Common Shares are not quoted by any such organization, the average
                of the
                closing bid and asked prices as furnished by a professional market
                maker

                the
                Current Per Share Market Price of Common Shares will mean the fair
                value

                the

              For
                the purpose of any computation hereunder, the “Current Per Share Market
                Price of Preferred Shares” will be determined in the same manner as set
                forth above for Common Shares in Section 11(d)(i), other than the
                last
                sentence thereof. If the Current Per Share Market Price of Preferred
                Shares cannot be determined in the manner provided above, it will
                be
                conclusively deemed to be an amount equal to the current per share
                market
                price of the Common Shares multiplied by one hundred (as such number
                may
                be appropriately adjusted to reflect events such as stock splits,
                stock
                dividends, recapitalizations or similar transactions relating to
                the
                Common Shares occurring after the date of this Agreement). If neither
                the
                Common Shares nor the Preferred Shares are publicly held or so listed
                or
                traded, or the subject of available bid and asked quotes, “current per
                share market price” of the Preferred Shares will mean the fair value per
                share as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the
                Company, whose determination will be described in a statement filed
                with
                the Rights Agent. For all purposes of this Agreement, the current
                per
                share market price of one one-hundredth of a Preferred Share will
                be equal
                to the current per share market price of one Preferred Share divided
                by
                one hundred. 

            

    

     

    
      	 	
              (e)

            	
              Except
                as set forth below, no adjustment in the Purchase Price will be required
                unless such adjustment would require an increase or decrease of at
                least
                1% in such price; provided,
                however,
                that any adjustments which by reason of this Section 11(e) are not
                required to be made will be carried forward and taken into account
                in any
                subsequent adjustment. All calculations under this Section 11 will
                be made
                to the nearest cent or to the nearest one one-millionth of a Preferred
                Share or one ten-thousandth of a Common Share or other security,
                as the
                case may be. Notwithstanding the first sentence of this Section 11(e),
                any
                adjustment required by this Section 11 will be made no later than
                the
                earlier of (i) three years from the date of the transaction which requires
                such adjustment and (ii) the Expiration
                Date.

            

    

     

    
      	 	
              (f)

            	
              If
                as a result of an adjustment made pursuant to Section 11(a), the
                holder of
                any Right thereafter exercised becomes entitled to receive any securities
                of the Company other than Preferred Shares, thereafter the number
                and/or
                kind of such other securities so receivable upon exercise of any
                Right
                (and/or the Purchase Price in respect thereof) will be subject to
                adjustment from time to time in a manner and on terms as nearly equivalent
                as practicable to the provisions with respect to the Preferred Shares
                (and
                the Purchase Price in respect thereof) contained in this Section
                11, and
                the provisions of Sections 7, 9, 10, 13 and 14 with respect to the
                Preferred Shares (and the Purchase Price in respect thereof) will
                apply on
                like terms to any such other securities (and the Purchase Price in
                respect
                thereof).

                made
                to the Purchase Price hereunder will evidence the right to purchase,

                a

                of the

                each adjustment of the Purchase Price pursuant to Section 11(b) or

                such
                adjustment will thereafter evidence the right to purchase, at the
                adjusted
                Purchase Price, that number of one one-hundredths of a Preferred
                Share
                (calculated to the nearest one one-millionth of a Preferred Share)

              The
                Company may elect, on or after the date of any adjustment of the
                Purchase
                Price, to adjust the number of Rights in substitution for any adjustment

                exercise of a Right. Each of the Rights outstanding after such adjustment
                of the number of Rights will be exercisable for the number of one
                one-hundredths of a Preferred Share for which a Right was exercisable
                immediately prior to such adjustment. Each Right held of record prior
                to
                such adjustment of the number of Rights will become that number of
                Rights
                (calculated to the nearest one ten-thousandth) obtained by dividing
                the
                Purchase Price in effect immediately prior to adjustment of the Purchase
                Price by the Purchase Price in effect immediately after adjustment
                of the
                Purchase Price. The Company will make a public announcement of its
                election to adjust the number of Rights, indicating the record date
                for
                the adjustment, and, if known at the time, the amount of the adjustment
                to
                be made. The Company will also notify the Rights Agent in writing
                of same
                pursuant to Section 9(d) hereof and give the Rights Agent a copy
                of such
                announcement. Such record date may be the date on which the Purchase
                Price
                is adjusted or any day thereafter, but, if the Right Certificates
                have
                been issued, such record date will be at least 10 calendar days later
                than
                the date of the public announcement. If Right Certificates have been
                issued, upon each adjustment of the number of Rights pursuant to
                this
                Section 11(i), the Company will, as promptly as practicable, cause
                to be
                distributed to holders of record of Right Certificates on such record
                date
                Right Certificates evidencing, subject to the provisions of Section
                14,
                the additional Rights to which such holders are entitled as a result
                of
                such adjustment, or, at the option of the Company, will cause to
                be
                distributed to such holders of record in substitution and replacement
                for
                the Right Certificates held by such holders prior to the date of
                adjustment, and upon surrender thereof if required by the Company,
                new
                Right Certificates evidencing all the Rights to which such holders
                are
                entitled after such adjustment. Right Certificates so to be distributed
                will be issued, executed, and countersigned in the manner provided
                for
                herein (and may bear, at the option of the Company, the adjusted
                Purchase
                Price) and will be registered in the names of the holders of record
                of
                Right Certificates on the record date specified in the public
                announcement.

                of its
                counsel, be necessary in order that the Company may validly and legally
                issue fully paid and nonassessable Preferred Shares or such other
                securities, as the case may be, at such adjusted Purchase

                the Purchase Price be made effective as of a record date for a specified
                event, the Company may elect to defer until the occurrence of such

                steps
                (including without limitation the reservation of a sufficient number
                of
                its Common Shares to permit the exercise of all outstanding Rights)

                part of the Company and/or any of its Subsidiaries) transferred pursuant
                to such transaction or transactions; provided,
                however,
                that, in any such case, (A) if (1) no class of equity security of
                such
                Person is, at the time of such merger, consolidation or transaction
                and

                equity
                security of which is and has been so registered, the term “Issuer” means
                such other Person; and (B) in case such Person is a Subsidiary, directly
                or indirectly, of more than one Person, a class of equity security
                of two
                or more of which are and have been so registered, the term “Issuer” means

                the
                greatest aggregate market value. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if
                the
                Issuer in any of the Flip over Events listed above is not a corporation
                or
                other legal entity having outstanding equity securities, then, and
                in each
                such case, (x) if the Issuer is directly or indirectly wholly-owned
                by a
                corporation or other legal entity having outstanding equity securities,
                then all references to Common Shares of the Issuer will be deemed
                to be
                references to the Common Shares of the corporation or other legal
                entity
                having outstanding equity securities which ultimately controls the
                Issuer,
                and (y) if there is no such corporation or other legal entity having
                outstanding equity securities, (1) proper provision will be made
                so that
                the Issuer creates or otherwise makes available for purposes of the
                exercise of the Rights in accordance with the terms of this Agreement,
                a
                kind or kinds of security or securities having a fair market value
                at
                least equal to the economic value of the Common Shares which each
                holder
                of a Right would have been entitled to receive if the Issuer had
                been a
                corporation or other legal entity having outstanding equity securities;
                and (2) all other provisions of this Agreement will apply to the
                issuer of
                such securities as if such securities were Common
                Shares.

              (c)

            	
              The
                Company will not consummate any Flip-over Event if, (i) at the time
                of or
                immediately after such Flip-over Event, there are or would be any
                rights,
                warrants, instruments or securities outstanding or any agreements
                or
                arrangements in effect which would eliminate or substantially diminish
                the
                benefits intended to be afforded by the Rights, (ii) prior to,
                simultaneously with or immediately after such Flip-over Event, the
                stockholders of the Person who constitutes, or would constitute,
                the
                Issuer for purposes of Section 13(a) shall have received a distribution
                of
                Rights previously owned by such Person or any of its Affiliates or
                Associates or (iii) the form or nature of the organization of the
                Issuer
                would preclude or limit the exercisability of the Rights. In addition,
                the
                Company will not consummate any Flip-over Event unless the Issuer
                has a
                sufficient number of authorized Common Shares (or other securities
                as
                contemplated in Section 13(b) above) which have not been issued or
                reserved for issuance to permit the exercise in full of the Rights
                in
                accordance with this Section 13 and unless prior to such consummation
                the
                Company and the Issuer have executed and delivered to the Rights
                Agent a
                supplemental agreement providing for the terms set forth in subsections
                (a) and (b) of this Section 13 and further providing that as promptly
                as
                practicable after the consummation of any Flip-over Event, the Issuer
                will:

            

    

     

    
      	 	
              (i)

            	
              prepare
                and file a registration statement under the Securities Act with respect
                to
                the Rights and the securities issuable upon exercise of the Rights
                on an
                appropriate form, and use its best efforts to cause such registration
                statement to (1) become effective as soon as practicable after such
                filing
                and (2) remain effective (with a prospectus at all times meeting
                the
                requirements of the Securities Act) until the Expiration
                Date;

            

    

     

    
      	 	
              (ii)

            	
              take
                all such action as may be appropriate under, or to ensure compliance
                with,
                the securities or “blue sky” laws of the various states in connection with
                the exercisability of the Rights;
                and

            

    

     

    
      	 	
              (iii)

            	
              deliver
                to holders of the Rights historical financial statements for the
                Issuer
                and each of its Affiliates which comply in all respects with the
                requirements for registration on Form 10 under the Exchange Act.
                

            

    

     

    
      	 	
              (d)

            	
              The
                provisions of this Section 13 will similarly apply to successive
                mergers
                or consolidations or sales or other transfers. In the event that
                a
                Flip-over Event occurs at any time after the occurrence of a Flip-in
                Event, except for Rights that have become void pursuant to Section
                11(a)(ii), Rights that shall not have been previously exercised will
                cease
                to be exercisable in the manner provided in Section 11(a)(ii) and
                will
                thereafter be exercisable in the manner provided in Section
                13(a).

      14.
        Fractional
        Rights and Fractional Securities.

    

     

    
      	 	
              (a)

            	
              The
                Company will not be required to issue fractions of Rights or to distribute
                Right Certificates which evidence fractional Rights. In lieu of such
                fractional Rights, the Company will pay as promptly as practicable
                to the
                registered holders of the Right Certificates with regard to which
                such
                fractional Rights otherwise would be issuable, an amount in cash
                equal to
                the same fraction of the current market value of one Right. For the
                purposes of this Section 14(a), the current market value of one Right
                is
                the closing price of the Rights for the Trading Day immediately prior
                to
                the date on which such fractional Rights otherwise would have been
                issuable. The closing price for any day is the last sale price, regular
                way, or, in case no such sale takes place on such day, the average
                of the
                closing bid and asked prices, regular way, in either case as reported
                in
                the principal consolidated transaction reporting system with respect
                to
                securities listed or admitted to trading on Nasdaq or, if the Rights
                are
                not listed or admitted to trading on Nasdaq, as reported in the principal
                consolidated transaction reporting system with respect to securities
                listed on the principal national securities exchange on which the
                Rights
                are listed or admitted to trading or, if the Rights are not listed
                or
                admitted to trading on any national securities exchange, the last
                quoted
                price or, if not so quoted, the average of the high bid and low asked
                prices in the over-the-counter market, as reported by Nasdaq or such
                other
                system then in use, or, if on any such date the Rights are not quoted
                by
                any such organization, the average of the closing bid and asked prices
                as
                furnished by a professional market maker making a market in the Rights
                selected by the Board of Directors of the Company. If the Rights
                are not
                publicly held or are not so listed or traded, or are not the subject
                of
                available bid and asked quotes, the current market value of one Right
                will
                mean the fair value thereof as determined in good faith by the Board
                of
                Directors of the Company, whose determination will be described in
                a
                statement filed with the Rights
                Agent.

            

    

     

    
      	 	
              (b)

            	
              The
                Company will not be required to issue fractions of Preferred Shares
                (other
                than fractions which are integral multiples of one one-hundredth
                of a
                Preferred Share) upon exercise of the Rights or to distribute certificates
                which evidence fractional Preferred Shares (other than fractions
                which are
                integral multiples of one one-hundredth of a Preferred Share). Fractions
                of Preferred Shares in integral multiples of one one-hundredth of
                a
                Preferred Share may, at the election of the Company, be evidenced
                by
                depositary receipts pursuant to an appropriate agreement between
                the
                Company and a depositary selected by it, provided
                that such agreement provides that the holders of such depositary
                receipts
                have all the rights, privileges and preferences to which they are
                entitled
                as beneficial owners of the Preferred Shares represented by such
                depositary receipts. In lieu of fractional Preferred Shares that
                are not
                integral multiples of one one-hundredth of a Preferred Share, the
                Company
                may pay to any Person to whom or which such fractional Preferred
                Shares
                would otherwise be issuable an amount in cash equal to the same fraction
                of the current market value of one Preferred Share. For purposes
                of this
                Section 14(b), the current market value of one Preferred Share is
                the
                closing price of the Preferred Shares (as determined in the same
                manner as
                set forth for Common Shares in the second sentence of Section 11(d)(i))
                for the Trading Day immediately prior to the date of such exercise;
                provided,
                however
                that if the closing price of the Preferred Shares cannot be so determined,
                the closing price of the Preferred Shares for such Trading Day will
                be
                conclusively deemed to be an amount equal to the closing price of
                the
                Common Shares (determined pursuant to the second sentence of Section
                11(d)(i)) for such Trading Day multiplied by one hundred (as such
                number
                may be appropriately adjusted to reflect events such as stock splits,
                stock dividends, recapitalization s or similar transactions relating
                to
                the Common Shares occurring after the date of this Agreement);
                provided further,
                however,
                that if neither the Common Shares nor the Preferred Shares are publicly
                held or listed or admitted to trading on any national securities
                exchange,
                or the subject of available bid and asked quotes, the current market
                value
                of one Preferred Share will mean the fair value thereof as determined
                in
                good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company, whose determination
                will be described in a statement filed with the Rights Agent.

              (c)

            	
              Following
                the occurrence of a Triggering Event, the Company will not be required
                to
                issue fractions of Common Shares or other securities issuable upon
                exercise or exchange of the Rights or to distribute certificates
                which
                evidence any such fractional securities. In lieu of issuing any such
                fractional securities, the Company may pay to any Person to whom
                or which
                such fractional securities would otherwise be issuable an amount
                in cash
                equal to the same fraction of the current market value of one such
                security. For purposes of this Section 14(c), the current market
                value of
                one Common Share or other security issuable upon the exercise or
                exchange
                of Rights is the closing price thereof (as determined in the same
                manner
                as set forth for Common Shares in the second sentence of Section
                11(d)(i))
                for the Trading Day immediately prior to the date of such exercise
                or
                exchange; provided,
                however,
                that if neither the Common Shares nor any such other securities are
                publicly held or listed or admitted to trading on any national securities
                exchange, or the subject of available bid and asked quotes, the current
                market value of one Common Share or such other security will mean
                the fair
                value thereof as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors
                of the
                Company, whose determination will mean the fair value thereof as
                will be
                described in a statement filed with the Rights Agent.

        Rights
        of Action.

    

     

    
      	 	
              (a)

            	
              All
                rights of action in respect of this Agreement, excepting the rights
                of
                action given to the Rights Agent under Sections 18 and 20 hereof,
                are
                vested in the respective registered holders of the Right Certificates
                (and, prior to the Distribution Date, the registered holders of the
                Common
                Shares); and any registered holder of any Right Certificate (or,
                prior to
                the Distribution Date, of the Common Shares), without the consent
                of the
                Rights Agent or of the holder of any other Right Certificate (or,
                prior to
                the Distribution Date, of the holder of any Common Shares), may in
                his own
                behalf and for his own benefit enforce, and may institute and maintain
                any
                suit, action or proceeding against the Company to enforce, or otherwise
                act in respect of, his right to exercise the Rights evidenced by
                such
                Right Certificate in the manner provided in such Right Certificate
                and in
                this Agreement. Without limiting the foregoing or any remedies available
                to the holders of Rights, it is specifically acknowledged that the
                holders
                of Rights would not have an adequate remedy at law for any breach
                of this
                Agreement and will be entitled to specific performance of the obligations
                under this Agreement, and injunctive relief against actual or threatened
                violations of the obligations of any Person subject to this
                Agreement.

            

    

     

    
      	 	
              (b)

            	
              Notwithstanding
                anything in this Agreement to the contrary, neither the Company nor
                the
                Rights Agent will have any liability to any holder of a Right or
                other
                Person as a result of its inability to perform any of its obligations
                under this Agreement by reason of any preliminary or permanent injunction
                or other order, decree or ruling issued by a court of competent
                jurisdiction or by a governmental, regulatory, self-regulatory or
                administrative agency or commission, or any statute, rule, regulation
                or
                executive order promulgated or enacted by any governmental authority,
                prohibiting or otherwise restraining performance of such obligation;
                provided,
                however
                that the Company will use its best efforts to have any such order,
                decree
                or ruling lifted or otherwise overturned as soon as
                possible.

    16. Agreement
      of Rights Holders.
      Every
      holder of a Right by accepting the same consents and agrees with the Company
      and
      the Rights Agent and with every other holder of a Right that:

     

    
      	 	
              (a)

            	
              prior
                to the Distribution Date, the Rights are transferable only in connection
                with the transfer of the Common
                Shares;

            

    

     

    
      	 	
              (b)

            	
              after
                the Distribution Date, the Right Certificates are transferable only
                on the
                registry books of the Rights Agent if surrendered at the office of
                the
                Rights Agent designated for such purpose, duly endorsed or accompanied
                by
                a proper instrument of transfer;

            

    

     

    
      	 	
              (c)

            	
              the
                Company and the Rights Agent may deem and treat the Person in whose
                name
                the Right Certificate (or, prior to the Distribution Date, the associated
                Common Share certificate) is registered as the absolute owner thereof
                and
                of the Rights evidenced thereby (notwithstanding any notations of
                ownership or writing on the Right Certificate or the associated Common
                Share certificate made by anyone other than the Company or the Rights
                Agent) for all purposes whatsoever, and neither the Company nor the
                Rights
                Agent will be affected by any notice to the contrary;
                and

            

    

     

    
      	 	
              (d)

            	
              such
                holder expressly waives any right to receive any fractional Rights
                and any
                fractional securities upon exercise or exchange of a Right, except
                as
                otherwise provided in Section 14.

            

    

     

    17. Right
      Certificate Holder Not Deemed a Stockholder.
      No
      holder, as such, of any Right Certificate will be entitled to vote, receive
      dividends, or be deemed for any purpose the holder of Preferred Shares or any
      other securities of the Company which may at any time be issuable upon the
      exercise of the Rights represented thereby, nor will anything contained herein
      or in any Right Certificate be construed to confer upon the holder of any Right
      Certificate, as such, any of the rights of a stockholder of the Company or
      any
      right to vote for the election of directors or upon any matter submitted to
      stockholders at any meeting thereof, or to give or withhold consent to any
      corporate action, or to receive notice of meetings or other actions affecting
      stockholders (except as provided in Section 25), or to receive dividends or
      subscription rights, or otherwise, until the Right or Rights evidenced by such
      Right Certificate shall have been exercised in accordance with the provisions
      of
      this Agreement or exchanged pursuant to the provisions of Section
      24.

     

    18. Concerning
      the Rights Agent.

     

    
      	 	
              (a)

            	
              The
                Company will pay to the Rights Agent reasonable compensation for
                all
                services rendered by it hereunder and, from time to time, on demand
                of the
                Rights Agent, its reasonable expenses and counsel fees and other
                disbursements incurred in the preparation, delivery, amendment,
                administration and execution of this Agreement and the exercise and
                performance of its duties hereunder. The Company will also indemnify
                the
                Rights Agent for, and hold it harmless against, any loss, liability,
                damage, judgment, fine, penalty, claim, demand, settlement suit,
                action,
                proceeding or expense, incurred without gross negligence, bad faith,
                or
                willful misconduct on the part of the Rights Agent (which gross
                negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct must be determined by
                a final,
                non-appealable order, judgment decree or ruling of a court of competent
                jurisdiction), for anything done or omitted to be done by the Rights
                Agent
                in connection with the acceptance, administration, exercise and
                performance of its duties under this Agreement. The costs and expenses
                of
                defending against any claim of liability arising therefrom, directly
                or
                indirectly, shall be paid by the Company. The provisions of this
                Section
                18 and Section 20 below shall survive the termination of this Agreement,
                the exercise or expiration of the Rights and the resignation, replacement
                or removal of the Rights Agent.

            

    

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        26

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

     

    
      	 	
              (b)

            	
              The
                Rights Agent will be authorized and protected and will incur no liability
                for or in respect of any action taken, suffered, or omitted by it
                in
                connection with its acceptance and administration of this Agreement
                and
                the exercise and performance of its duties hereunder, in reliance
                upon any
                Right Certificate or certificate evidencing Preferred Shares or Common
                Shares or other securities of the Company, instrument of assignment
                or
                transfer, power of attorney, endorsement, affidavit, letter, notice,
                direction, consent, certificate, statement or other paper or document
                believed by it to be genuine and to be signed, executed, and, where
                necessary, verified or acknowledged, by the proper Person or
                Persons.

            

    

     

    19. Merger
      or Consolidation or Change of Name of Rights Agent.
      

     

    
      	 	
              (a)

            	
              Any
                Person into which the Rights Agent or any successor Rights Agent
                may be
                merged or with which it may be consolidated, or any Person resulting
                from
                any merger or consolidation to which the Rights Agent or any successor
                Rights Agent is a party, will be the successor to the Rights Agent
                under
                this Agreement without the execution or filing of any paper or any
                further
                act on the part of any of the parties hereto, provided that such
                Person
                would be eligible for appointment as a successor Rights Agent under
                the
                provisions of Section 21. If at the time such successor Rights Agent
                succeeds to the agency created by this Agreement any of the Right
                Certificates shall have been countersigned but not delivered, any
                such
                successor Rights Agent may adopt the countersignature of the predecessor
                Rights Agent and deliver such Right Certificates so countersigned;
                and if
                at that time any of the Right Certificates shall not have been
                countersigned, any successor Rights Agent may countersign such Right
                Certificates either in the name of the predecessor Rights Agent or
                in the
                name of the successor Rights Agent; and in all such cases such Right
                Certificates will have the full force provided in the Right Certificates
                and in this Agreement.

            

    

     

    
      	 	
              (b)

            	
              If
                at any time the name of the Rights Agent changes and at such time
                any of
                the Right Certificates have been countersigned but not delivered,
                the
                Rights Agent may adopt the countersignature under its prior name
                and
                deliver Right Certificates so countersigned; and if at that time
                any of
                the Right Certificates have not been countersigned, the Rights Agent
                may
                countersign such Right Certificates either in its prior name or in
                its
                changed name; and in all such cases such Right Certificates will
                have the
                full force provided in the Right Certificates and in this
                Agreement.

    20. Duties
      of Rights Agent. The
      Rights Agent undertakes to perform only the duties and obligations expressly
      imposed by this Agreement (and no implied duties) upon the following terms
      and
      conditions, by all of which the Company and the holders of Right Certificates,
      by their acceptance thereof, will be bound: 

     

    
      	 	
              (a)

            	
              The
                Rights Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be legal counsel
                for
                the Company or an employee of the Rights Agent), and the advice or
                opinion
                of such counsel will be full and complete authorization and protection
                to
                the Rights Agent and the Rights Agent shall incur no liability for
                or in
                respect of any action taken or omitted in accordance with such opinion.
                

            

    

     

    
      	 	
              (b)

            	
              Whenever
                in the performance of its duties under this Agreement the Rights
                Agent
                deems it necessary or desirable that any fact or matter (including,
                without limitation, the identity of an Acquiring Person and the
                determination of the current per share market price of any security)
                be
                proved or established by the Company prior to taking, omitting or
                suffering any action hereunder, such fact or matter (unless other
                evidence
                in respect thereof be herein specifically prescribed) may be deemed
                to be
                conclusively proved and established by a certificate signed by any
                one of
                the Chairman of the Board of Directors, the Chief Executive Officer,
                the
                Chief Financial Officer, any Vice President, the Secretary or the
                Treasurer of the Company and delivered to the Rights Agent, and such
                certificate will be full and complete authorization to the Rights
                Agent
                for any action taken, omitted or suffered by it under the provisions
                of
                this Agreement in reliance upon such
                certificate.

            

    

     

    
      	 	
              (c)

            	
              The
                Rights Agent will be liable hereunder only for its own gross negligence,
                bad faith or willful misconduct (which gross negligence, bad faith
                or
                willful misconduct must be determined by a final, non-appealable
                order,
                judgment, decree or ruling of a court of competent jurisdiction).
                Anything
                to the contrary notwithstanding, in no event shall the Rights Agent
                be
                liable for special, punitive, indirect, consequential or incidental
                loss
                or damage of any kind whatsoever (including but not limited to lost
                profits), even if the Rights Agent has been advised of the likelihood
                of
                such loss or damage. Any liability of the Rights Agent under this
                Agreement will be limited to the amount of annual fees paid by the
                Company
                to the Rights Agent.

            

    

     

    
      	 	
              (d)

            	
              The
                Rights Agent will not be liable for or by reason of any of the statements
                of fact or recitals contained in this Agreement or in the Right
                Certificates (except its countersignature thereof) or be required
                to
                verify the same, but all such statements and recitals are and will
                be
                deemed to have been made by the Company
                only.

            

    

     

    
      	 	
              (e)

            	
              The
                Rights Agent will not have any liability for or be under any
                responsibility in respect of the validity of this Agreement or the
                execution and delivery hereof (except the due execution and delivery
                hereof by the Rights Agent) or in respect of the validity or execution
                of
                any Right Certificate (except its countersignature thereof); nor
                will it
                be responsible for any breach by the Company of any covenant contained
                in
                this Agreement or in any Right Certificate; nor will it be responsible
                for
                any adjustment required under the provisions of Section 11 or 13
                (including any adjustment which results in Rights becoming void)
                or
                responsible for the manner, method or amount of any such adjustment
                or the
                ascertaining of the existence of facts that would require any such
                adjustment (except with respect to the exercise of Rights evidenced
                by
                Right Certificates after receipt of the Certificate described in
                Section
                12 hereof, upon which the Rights Agent may rely); nor will it by
                any act
                hereunder be deemed to make any representation or warranty as to
                the
                authorization or reservation of any shares of stock or other securities
                to
                be issued pursuant to this Agreement or any Right Certificate or
                as to
                whether any shares of stock or other securities will, when issued,
                be duly
                authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable.
                

            

    

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        28

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

     

    
      	 	
              (f)

            	
              The
                Company will perform, execute, acknowledge and deliver or cause to
                be
                performed, executed, acknowledged and delivered all such further
                and other
                acts, instruments and assurances as may reasonably be required by
                the
                Rights Agent for the carrying out or performing by the Rights Agent
                of the
                provisions of this Agreement.

            

    

     

    
      	 	
              (g)

            	
              The
                Rights Agent is hereby authorized and directed to accept instructions
                with
                respect to the performance of its duties hereunder from any one of
                the
                Chairman of the Board of Directors, the Chief Executive Officer,
                the Chief
                Financial Officer, any Vice President, the Secretary or the Treasurer
                of
                the Company, and to apply to such officers for advice or instructions
                in
                connection with its duties, and such instructions shall be full
                authorization and protection to the Rights Agent, and it will not
                be
                liable for any action taken or suffered to be taken by it in accordance
                with instructions of any such officer or for any delay in acting
                while
                waiting for those instructions. The Rights Agent shall be fully authorized
                and protected in relying upon the most recent instructions received
                by any
                such officer. Any application by the Rights Agent for written instructions
                from the Company may, at the option of the Rights Agent, set forth
                in
                writing any action proposed to be taken, suffered or omitted by the
                Rights
                Agent under this Agreement and the date on and/or after which such
                action
                shall be taken or suffered or such omission shall be effective. The
                Rights
                Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or suffered by, or
                omission
                of, the Rights Agent in accordance with a proposal included in any
                such
                application on or after the date specified in such application (which
                date
                shall not be less than five Business Days after the date any officer
                of
                the Company actually receives such application, unless any such officer
                shall have consented in writing to an earlier date) unless, prior
                to
                taking any such action (or the effective date in the case of an omission),
                the Rights Agent shall have received written instructions in response
                to
                such application specifying the action to be taken, suffered or
                omitted.

            

    

     

    
      	 	
              (h)

            	
              The
                Rights Agent and any stockholder, director, officer or employee of
                the
                Rights Agent may buy, sell or deal in any of the Rights or other
                securities of the Company or become pecuniarily interested in any
                transaction in which the Company may be interested, or contract with
                or
                lend money to the Company or otherwise act as fully and freely as
                though
                it were not Rights Agent under this Agreement. Nothing herein will
                preclude the Rights Agent from acting in any other capacity for the
                Company or for any other Person.

              (i)

            	
              The
                Rights Agent may execute and exercise any of the rights or powers
                hereby
                vested in it or perform any duty hereunder either itself (through
                its
                directors, officers and employees) or by or through its attorneys
                or
                agents, and the Rights Agent will not be answerable or accountable
                for any
                act, default, neglect or misconduct of any such attorneys or agents
                or for
                any loss to the Company resulting from any such act, default, neglect
                or
                misconduct absent gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct
                in the
                selection and continued employment thereof (which gross negligence,
                bad
                faith or willful misconduct must be determined by a final, non-appealable
                order, judgment, decree or ruling of an court of competent jurisdiction).
                The Rights Agent will not be under any duty or responsibility to
                ensure
                compliance with any applicable federal or state securities laws in
                connection with the issuance, transfer or exchange of Right
                Certificates.

            

    

     

    
      	 	
              (j)

            	
              If,
                with respect to any Right Certificate surrendered to the Rights Agent
                for
                exercise, transfer, split up, combination or exchange, either (i)
                the
                certificate attached to the form of assignment or form of election
                to
                purchase, as the case may be, has either not been completed or indicates
                an affirmative response to clause 1 or 2 thereof, or (ii) any other
                actual
                or suspected irregularity exists, the Rights Agent will not take
                any
                further action with respect to such requested exercise, transfer,
                split
                up, combination or exchange without first consulting with the Company,
                and
                will thereafter take further action with respect thereto only in
                accordance with the Company’s written
                instructions.

            

    

     

    
      	 	
              (k)

            	
              No
                provision of this Agreement shall require the Rights Agent to expend
                or
                risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in
                the
                performance of any of its duties hereunder or in the exercise of
                its
                rights if it believes that repayment of such funds or adequate
                indemnification against such risk or liability is not reasonably
                assured
                to it.

            

    

     

    21. Change
      of Rights Agent. The
      Rights Agent or any successor Rights Agent may resign and be discharged from
      its
      duties under this Agreement upon 30 calendar days’ notice in writing mailed to
      the Company and to each transfer agent of the Preferred Shares or the Common
      Shares known to the Rights Agent by registered or certified mail, and to the
      holders of the Right Certificates by first class mail. The Company may remove
      the Rights Agent or any successor Rights Agent upon 30 calendar days’ notice in
      writing, mailed to the Rights Agent or successor Rights Agent, as the case
      may
      be, and to each transfer agent of the Preferred Shares and the Common Shares
      by
      registered or certified mail, and to the holders of the Right Certificates
      by
      first class mail. If the Rights Agent resigns or is removed or otherwise becomes
      incapable of acting, the Company will appoint a successor to the Rights Agent.
      If the Company fails to make such appointment within a period of 30 calendar
      days after giving notice of such removal or after it has been notified in
      writing of such resignation or incapacity by the resigning or incapacitated
      Rights Agent or by the holder of a Right Certificate (who will, with such
      notice, submit his Right Certificate for inspection by the Company), then the
      registered holder of any Right Certificate may apply to any court of competent
      jurisdiction for the appointment of a new Rights Agent. Any successor Rights
      Agent, whether appointed by the Company or by such a court, will be a Person
      organized and doing business under the laws of the United States or of the
      State
      of New York (or of any other state of the United States so long as such Person
      is authorized to do business as a banking institution in the State of New York),
      in good standing, having a principal office in the State of New York, which
      is
      authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trust or stock transfer powers
      and is subject to supervision or examination by federal or state authority
      and
      which has at the time of its appointment as Rights Agent a combined capital
      and
      surplus of at least $50 million. After appointment, the successor Rights Agent
      will be vested with the same powers, rights, duties and responsibilities as
      if
      it had been originally named as Rights Agent without further act or deed; but
      the predecessor Rights Agent will deliver and transfer to the successor Rights
      Agent any property at the time held by it hereunder, and execute and deliver
      any
      further assurance, conveyance, act or deed necessary for the purpose. Not later
      than the effective date of any such appointment, the Company will file notice
      thereof in writing with the predecessor Rights Agent and each transfer agent
      of
      the Preferred Shares or the Common Shares, and mail a notice thereof in writing
      to the registered holders of the Right Certificates. Failure to give any notice
      provided for in this Section 21, however, or any defect therein, will not affect
      the legality or validity of the resignation or removal of the Rights Agent
      or
      the appointment of the successor Rights Agent, as the case may be.

    22. Issuance
      of New Right Certificates. Notwithstanding
      any of the provisions of this Agreement or of the Rights to the contrary, the
      Company may, at its option, issue new Right Certificates evidencing Rights
      in
      such form as may be approved by its Board of Directors to reflect any adjustment
      or change in the Purchase Price per share and the number or kind of securities
      issuable upon exercise of the Rights made in accordance with the provisions
      of
      this Agreement. In addition, in connection with the issuance or sale by the
      Company of Common Shares following the Distribution Date and prior to the
      Expiration Date, the Company (a) will, with respect to Common Shares so issued
      or sold pursuant to the exercise, exchange or conversion of securities (other
      than Rights) issued prior to the Distribution Date which are exercisable or
      exchangeable for, or convertible into Common Shares and (b) may, in any other
      case, if deemed necessary, appropriate or desirable by the Board of Directors
      of
      the Company, issue Right Certificates representing an equivalent number of
      Rights as would have been issued in respect of such Common Shares if they had
      been issued or sold prior to the Distribution Date, as appropriately adjusted
      as
      provided herein as if they had been so issued or sold; provided,
      however,
      that
      (i) no such Right Certificate will be issued if, and to the extent that, in
      its
      good faith judgment the Board of Directors of the Company determines that the
      issuance of such Right Certificate could have a material adverse tax consequence
      to the Company or to the Person to whom or which such Right Certificate
      otherwise would be issued and (ii) no such Right Certificate will be issued
      if,
      and to the extent that, appropriate adjustment otherwise has been made in lieu
      of the issuance thereof.

     

    23. Redemption.

     

    
      	 	
              (a)

            	
              Prior
                to the Expiration Date, the Board of Directors of the Company may,
                at its
                option, redeem all but not less than all of the then-outstanding
                Rights at
                the Redemption Price at any time prior to the Close of Business on
                the
                later of (i) the Distribution Date and (ii) Share Acquisition Date.
                Any
                such redemption will be effective immediately upon the action of
                the Board
                of Directors of the Company ordering the same, unless such action
                of the
                Board of Directors of the Company expressly provides that such redemption
                will be effective at a subsequent time or upon the occurrence or
                nonoccurrence of one or more specified events (in which case such
                redemption will be effective in accordance with the provisions of
                such
                action of the Board of Directors of the Company).
                

            

    

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        31

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

     

    
      	 	
              (b)

            	
              Immediately
                upon the effectiveness of the redemption of the Rights as provided
                in
                Section 23(a), and without any further action and without any notice,
                the
                right to exercise the Rights will terminate and the only right thereafter
                of the holders of Rights will be to receive the Redemption Price,
                without
                interest thereon. Promptly after the effectiveness of the redemption
                of
                the Rights as provided in Section 23(a), the Company will publicly
                announce such redemption (with prompt written notice thereof to the
                Rights
                Agent) and, within 10 calendar days thereafter, will give notice
                of such
                redemption to the holders of the then-outstanding Rights by mailing
                such
                notice to all such holders at their last addresses as they appear
                upon the
                registry books of the Company; provided,
                however,
                that the failure to give, or any defect in, any such notice will
                not
                affect the validity of the redemption of the Rights. Any notice that
                is
                mailed in the manner herein provided will be deemed given, whether
                or not
                the holder receives the notice. The notice of redemption mailed to
                the
                holders of Rights will state the method by which the payment of the
                Redemption Price will be made. The Company may, at its option, pay
                the
                Redemption Price in cash, Common Shares (based upon the current per
                share
                market price of the Common Shares (determined pursuant to Section
                11(d))
                at the time of redemption), or any other form of consideration deemed
                appropriate by the Board of Directors of the Company (based upon
                the fair
                market value of such other consideration, determined by the Board
                of
                Directors of the Company in good faith) or any combination thereof.
                The
                Company may, at its option, combine the payment of the Redemption
                Price
                with any other payment being made concurrently to holders of Common
                Shares
                and, to the extent that any such other payment is discretionary,
                may
                reduce the amount thereof on account of the concurrent payment of
                the
                Redemption Price. If legal or contractual restrictions prevent the
                Company
                from paying the Redemption Price (in the form of consideration deemed
                appropriate by the Board of Directors) at the time of redemption,
                the
                Company will pay the Redemption Price, without interest, promptly
                after
                such time as the Company ceases to be so prevented from paying the
                Redemption Price. 

            

    

     

    24. Exchange.

     

    
      	 	
              (a)

            	
              The
                Board of Directors of the Company may, at its option, at any time
                after
                the later of the Share Acquisition Date and the Distribution Date,
                exchange all or part of the then-outstanding and exercisable Rights
                (which
                will not include Rights that have become void pursuant to the provisions
                of Section 11(a)(ii)) for Common Shares at an exchange ratio of one
                Common
                Share per Right, appropriately adjusted to reflect any stock split,
                stock
                dividend or similar transaction occurring after the Record Date (such
                exchange ratio being hereinafter referred to as the “Exchange Ratio”). Any
                such exchange will be effective immediately upon the action of the
                Board
                of Directors of the Company ordering the same, unless such action
                of the
                Board of Directors of the Company expressly provides that such exchange
                will be effective at a subsequent time or upon the occurrence or
                nonoccurrence of one or more specified events (in which case such
                exchange
                will be effective in accordance with the provisions of such action
                of the
                Board of Directors of the Company). Notwithstanding the foregoing,
                the
                Board of Directors of the Company will not be empowered to effect
                such
                exchange at any time after any Person (other than the Company, any
                Related
                Person or any Exempt Person), who or which, together with all Affiliates
                and Associates of such Person, becomes the Beneficial Owner of 50%

              (b)

            	
              Immediately
                upon the effectiveness of the exchange of any Rights as provided
                in
                Section 24(a), and without any further action and without any notice,
                the
                right to exercise such Rights will terminate and the only right with
                respect to such Rights thereafter of the holder of such Rights will
                be to
                receive that number of Common Shares equal to the number of such
                Rights
                held by such holder multiplied by the Exchange Ratio. Promptly after
                the
                effectiveness of the exchange of any Rights as provided in Section
                24(a),
                the Company will publicly announce such exchange (with prompt written
                notice thereof to the Rights Agent) and, within 10 calendar days
                thereafter, will give notice of such exchange to all of the holders
                of
                such Rights at their last addresses as they appear upon the registry
                books
                of the Rights Agent; provided,
                however,
                that the failure to give, or any defect in, such notice will not
                affect
                the validity of such exchange. Any notice that is mailed in the manner
                herein provided will be deemed given, whether or not the holder receives
                the notice. Each such notice of exchange will state the method by
                which
                the exchange of the Common Shares for Rights will be effected and,
                in the
                event of any partial exchange, the number of Rights which will be
                exchanged. Any partial exchange will be effected pro rata based on
                the
                number of Rights (other than Rights which have become void pursuant
                to the
                provisions of Section 11(a)(ii)) held by each holder of
                Rights.

            

    

     

    
      	 	
              (c)

            	
              In
                any exchange pursuant to this Section 24, the Company, at its option,
                may
                substitute for any Common Share exchangeable for a Right (i) equivalent
                common shares (as such term is used in Section 11(a)(iii)), (ii)
                cash,
                (iii) debt securities of the Company, (iv) other assets or (v) any
                combination of the foregoing, in any event having an aggregate value,
                as
                determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company
                (whose
                determination will be described in a statement filed with the Rights
                Agent), equal to the current market value of one Common Share (determined
                pursuant to Section 11(d)) on the Trading Day immediately preceding
                the
                date of the effectiveness of the exchange pursuant to this Section
                24.

              If
                the Company proposes (i) to pay any dividend payable in stock of
                any class
                to the holders of Preferred Shares or to make any other distribution
                to
                the holders of Preferred Shares (other than a regular periodic cash
                dividend), (ii) to offer to the holders of Preferred Shares rights,
                options or warrants to subscribe for or to purchase any additional
                Preferred Shares or shares of stock of any class or any other securities,
                rights or options, (iii) to effect any reclassification of its Preferred
                Shares (other than a reclassification involving only the subdivision
                of
                outstanding Preferred Shares), (iv) to effect the liquidation, dissolution
                or winding up of the Company or (v) to declare or pay any dividend
                on the
                Common Shares payable in Common Shares or to effect a subdivision,
                combination or reclassification of the Common Shares then, in each
                such
                case, the Company will give to the Rights Agent and, to the extent
                feasible, to each holder of a Right Certificate, in accordance with
                Section 26, a notice of such proposed action, which specifies the
                record
                date for the purposes of such stock dividend, distribution or offering
                of
                rights, options or warrants, or the date on which such reclassification
                ,
                consolidation, merger, sale, transfer, liquidation, dissolution or
                winding
                up is to take place and the date of participation therein by the
                holders
                of the Common Shares and/or Preferred Shares, if any such date is
                to be
                fixed, and such notice will be so given, in the case of any action
                covered
                by clause (i) or (ii) above, at least 10 calendar days prior to the
                record
                date for determining holders of the Preferred Shares for purposes
                of such
                action, and, in the case of any such other action, at least 10 calendar
                days prior to the date of the taking of such proposed action or the
                date
                of participation therein by the holders of the Common Shares and/or
                Preferred Shares, whichever is the earlier.

                will

                holder
                of a Right Certificate, in accordance with Section 26 hereof, a notice
                of

    27. Supplements
      and Amendments. Subject
      to this Section 27, the Company may, in its sole and absolute discretion, and
      the Rights Agent will, if the Company so directs, supplement or amend any
      provision of this Agreement in any respect without the approval of any holders
      of Rights or Common Shares, any such supplement or amendment to be evidenced
      by
      a writing signed by the Company and the Rights Agent. From and after the time
      at
      which the Rights cease to be redeemable pursuant to Section 23, and subject
      to
      the last sentence of this Section 27, the Company may, and the Rights Agent
      will, if the Company so directs, supplement or amend this Agreement without
      the
      approval of any holders of Rights or Common Shares in order (i) to cure any
      ambiguity, (ii) to correct or supplement any provision contained herein which
      may be defective or inconsistent with any other provisions herein, (iii) to
      shorten or lengthen any time period hereunder or (iv) to supplement or amend
      the
      provisions hereunder in any manner which the Company may deem desirable;
provided,
      however,
      that no
      such supplement or amendment shall adversely affect the interests of the holders
      of Rights as such (other than an Acquiring Person or an Affiliate or Associate
      of an Acquiring Person), and no such supplement or amendment shall cause the
      Rights again to become redeemable or cause this Agreement again to become
      supplementable or amendable otherwise than in accordance with the provisions
      of
      this sentence. Without limiting the generality or effect of the foregoing,
      this
      Agreement may be supplemented or amended to provide for such voting powers
      for
      the Rights and such procedures for the exercise thereof, if any, as the Board
      of
      Directors of the Company may determine to be appropriate. Upon the delivery
      of a
      certificate from an officer of the Company and, if requested by the Rights
      Agent, an opinion of counsel which states that the proposed supplement or
      amendment is in compliance with the terms of this Section 27, the Rights Agent
      will execute such supplement or amendment. Notwithstanding anything in this
      Agreement to the contrary, (a) no supplement or amendment may be made which
      decreases the stated Redemption Price to an amount less than $0.0001 per Right;
      and (b) the Rights Agent may, and shall not be obligated to, enter into any
      supplement or amendment that affects the Rights Agent’s own rights, duties,
      obligations or immunities under this Agreement.

     

    28. Successors:
      Certain Covenants.
      All
      the
      covenants and provisions of this Agreement by or for the benefit of the Company
      or the Rights Agent will be binding on and inure to the benefit of their
      respective successors and assigns hereunder.

     

    29. Benefits
      of this Agreement. Nothing
      in this Agreement will be construed to give to any Person other than the
      Company, the Rights Agent and the registered holders of the Right Certificates
      (and, prior to the Distribution Date, the Common Shares) any legal or equitable
      right, remedy or claim under this Agreement. This Agreement will be for the
      sole
      and exclusive benefit of the Company, the Rights Agent and the registered
      holders of the Right Certificates (or prior to the Distribution Date, the Common
      Shares).

     

    30. Governing
      Law. This
      Agreement, each Right and each Right Certificate issued hereunder will be deemed
      to be a contract made under the internal substantive laws of the State of
      Delaware and for all purposes will be governed by and construed in accordance
      with the internal substantive laws of such State applicable to contracts to
      be
      made and performed entirely within such State. 

     

    31. Severability. If
      any
      term, provision, covenant or restriction of this Agreement is held by a court
      of
      competent jurisdiction or other authority to be invalid, void or unenforceable,
      the remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions of this
      Agreement will remain in full force and effect and will in no way be affected,
      impaired or invalidated; provided,
      however,
      that
      nothing contained in this Section 31 will affect the ability of the Company
      under the provisions of Section 27 to supplement or amend this Agreement to
      replace such invalid, void or unenforceable term, provision, covenant or
      restriction with a legal, valid and enforceable term, provision, covenant or
      restriction.

     

    32. Descriptive
      Headings. Descriptive
      headings of the several Sections of this Agreement are inserted for convenience
      only and will not control or affect the meaning or construction of any of the
      provisions hereof. Unless otherwise expressly provided, references herein to
      Sections and Exhibits are to Sections and Exhibits of or to this
      Agreement.

    33. Determinations
      and Actions by the Board. For
      all
      purposes of this Agreement, any calculation of the number of Common Shares
      outstanding at any particular time, including for purposes of determining the
      particular percentage of such outstanding Common Shares of which any Person
      is
      the Beneficial Owner, will be made in accordance with, as applicable, the last
      sentence of Rule 13d-3(d)(1)(i) of the General Rules and Regulations under
      the
      Exchange Act or the provisions of Section 382 of the Code, or any successor
      provision or replacement provision. The Board of Directors of the Company will
      have the exclusive power and authority to administer this Agreement and to
      exercise all rights and powers specifically granted to the Board of Directors
      of
      the Company or to the Company, or as may be necessary or advisable in the
      administration of this Agreement, including without limitation the right and
      power to (i) interpret the provisions of this Agreement and (ii) make all
      determinations deemed necessary or advisable for the administration of this
      Agreement (including without limitation any determination contemplated by
      Section 1(a) or any determination as to whether particular Rights shall have
      become void). All such actions, calculations, interpretations and determinations
      (including, for purposes of clause (y) below, any omission with respect to
      any
      of the foregoing) which are done or made by the Board of Directors of the
      Company in good faith will (x) be final, conclusive and binding on the Company,
      the Rights Agent, the holders of the Rights and all other parties and (y) not
      subject the Board of Directors of the Company to any liability to any Person,
      including without limitation the Rights Agent and the holders of the Rights.
      The
      Rights Agent shall always be entitled to assume that the Board of Directors
      acted in good faith and shall be fully protected and incur no liability in
      reliance thereon.

     

    34. Counterparts. This
      Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and each of such
      counterparts will for all purposes be deemed to be an original, and all such
      counterparts will together constitute but one and the same
      instrument.

      the Board of Directors of the Company has adopted the following resolution
      providing for the issuance of a series of Preferred Stock:

    

    RESOLVED,
      that
      pursuant to the authority expressly granted to and vested in the Board of
      Directors of the Company (the “Board”) by the Amended and Restated Certificate
      of Incorporation of the Company, a series of Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001
      per share (the “Preferred Stock”), of the Company be, and it hereby is, created,
      and that the designation and amount thereof and the powers, designations,
      preferences and relative, participating, optional and other special rights
      of
      the shares of such series, and the qualifications, limitations or restrictions
      thereof are as follows:

    

    Section
      1. Designation
      and Amount.
      The
      shares of such series will be designated as Series A Junior Participating
      Preferred Stock (the “Series A Preferred”) and the number of shares constituting
      the Series A Preferred is 1,000,000. Such number of shares may be increased
      or
      decreased by resolution of the Board; provided,
      however,
      that no
      decrease will reduce the number of shares of Series A Preferred to a number
      less
      than the number of shares then outstanding plus the number of shares reserved
      for issuance upon the exercise of outstanding options, rights or warrants or
      upon the conversion of any outstanding securities issued by the Company any
      convertible into Series A Preferred.

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        A-1

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

     

    Section
      2. Dividends
      and Distributions.

     

    (a) Subject
      to the rights of the holders of any shares of any series of Preferred Stock
      ranking prior to the Series A Preferred with respect to dividends, the holders
      of shares of Series A Preferred, in preference to the holders of Common Stock,
      par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”), of the Company, and of any
      other junior stock, will be entitled to receive, when, as and if declared by
      the
      Board out of funds legally available for the purpose, dividends payable in
      cash
      (except as otherwise provided below) on such dates as are from time to time
      established for the payment of dividends on the Common Stock (each such date
      being referred to herein as a “Dividend Payment Date”), commencing on the first
      Dividend Payment Date after the first issuance of a share or fraction of a
      share
      of Series A Preferred (the “First Dividend Payment Date”), in an amount per
      share (rounded to the nearest cent) equal to, subject to the provision for
      adjustment hereinafter set forth, one hundred (100) times the aggregate per
      share amount of all cash dividends, and one hundred (100) times the aggregate
      per share amount (payable in kind) of all non-cash dividends, other than a
      dividend payable in shares of Common Stock or a subdivision of the outstanding
      shares of Common Stock (by reclassification or otherwise), declared on the
      Common Stock since the immediately preceding Dividend Payment Date or, with
      respect to the First Dividend Payment Date, since the first issuance of any
      share or fraction of a share of Series A Preferred. In the event that the
      Company at any time (i) declares a dividend on the outstanding shares of Common
      Stock payable in shares of Common Stock, (ii) subdivides the outstanding shares
      of Common Stock, (iii) combines the outstanding shares of Common Stock into
      a
      smaller number of shares or (iv) issues any shares of its capital stock in
      a
      reclassification of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (including any such
      reclassification in connection with a consolidation or merger in which the
      Company is the continuing or surviving corporation), then, in each such case
      and
      regardless of whether any shares of Series A Preferred are then issued or
      outstanding, the amount to which holders of shares of Series A Preferred would
      otherwise be entitled immediately prior to such event under clause (ii) of
      the
      preceding sentence will be adjusted by multiplying such amount by a fraction,
      (1) the numerator of which is the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding
      immediately after such event and (2) the denominator of which is the number
      of
      shares of Common Stock that were outstanding immediately prior to such event.
      

     

    (b) The
      Company will declare a dividend on the Series A Preferred as provided in
      paragraph (a) of this Section 2 immediately after it declares a dividend on
      the
      Common Stock (other than a dividend payable in shares of Common Stock). Each
      such dividend on the Series A Preferred will be payable immediately prior to
      the
      time at which the related dividend on the Common Stock is payable. 

     

    (c) Dividends
      will accrue on outstanding shares of Series A Preferred from the Dividend
      Payment Date next preceding the date of issue of such shares, unless (i) the
      date of issue of such shares is prior to the record date for the First Dividend
      Payment Date, in which case dividends on such shares will accrue from the date
      of the first issuance of a share of Series A Preferred or (ii) the date of
      issue
      is a Dividend Payment Date or is a date after the record date for the
      determination of holders of shares of Series A Preferred entitled to receive
      a
      dividend and before such Dividend Payment Date, in either of which events such
      dividends will accrue from such Dividend Payment Date. Accrued but unpaid
      dividends will cumulate from the applicable Dividend Payment Date but will
      not
      bear interest. Dividends paid on the shares of Series A Preferred in an amount
      less than the total amount of such dividends at the time accrued and payable
      on
      such shares will be allocated pro rata on a share-by-share basis among all
      such
      shares at the time outstanding. The Board may fix a record date for the
      determination of holders of shares of Series A Preferred entitled to receive
      payment of a dividend or distribution declared thereon, which record date will
      be not more than 60 calendar days prior to the date fixed for the payment
      thereof.

     

    Section
      3. Voting
      Rights.
      The
      holders of shares of Series A Preferred will have the following voting
      rights:

    
      
        
        

      

      
        A-2

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

     

    (a) Subject
      to the provision for adjustment hereinafter set forth, each share of Series
      A
      Preferred will entitle the holder thereof to one hundred (100) votes on all
      matters submitted to a vote of the stockholders of the Company. In the event
      the
      Company at any time (i) declares a dividend on the outstanding shares of Common
      Stock payable in shares of Common Stock, (ii) subdivides the outstanding shares
      of Common Stock, (iii) combines the outstanding shares of Common Stock into
      a
      smaller number of shares or (iv) issues any shares of its capital stock in
      a
      reclassification of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (including any such
      reclassification in connection with a consolidation or merger in which the
      Company is the continuing or surviving corporation), then, in each such case
      and
      regardless of whether any shares of Series A Preferred are then issued or
      outstanding, the number of votes per share to which holders of shares of Series
      A Preferred would otherwise be entitled immediately prior to such event will
      be
      adjusted by multiplying such number by a fraction, (1) the numerator of which
      is
      the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event
      and (2) the denominator of which is the number of shares of Common Stock that
      were outstanding immediately prior to such event.

     

    (b) Except
      as
      otherwise provided herein, in any other Certificate of Designations creating
      a
      series of Preferred Stock or any similar stock, or by law, the holders of shares
      of Series A Preferred and the holders of shares of Common Stock and any other
      capital stock of the Company having general voting rights will vote together
      as
      one class on all matters submitted to a vote of stockholders of the
      Company.

     

    (c) Except
      as
      set forth in the Certificate of Incorporation or herein, or as otherwise
      provided by law, holders of shares of Series A Preferred will have no voting
      rights.

     

    Section
      4. Certain
      Restrictions.

     

    (a) Whenever
      dividends or other dividends or distributions payable on the Series A Preferred
      are in arrears, thereafter and until all accrued and unpaid dividends and
      distributions, whether or not declared, on shares of Series A Preferred
      outstanding have been paid in full, the Company will not: 

     

    
      	 	
              (i)

            	
              declare
                or pay dividends, or make any other distributions, on any shares
                of stock
                ranking junior (either as to dividends or upon liquidation, dissolution
                or
                winding up) to the shares of Series A
                Preferred;

            

    

    

    
      	 	
              (ii)

            	
              declare
                or pay dividends, or make any other distributions, on any shares
                of stock
                ranking on a parity (either as to dividends or upon liquidation,
                dissolution or winding up) with the shares of Series A Preferred,
                except
                dividends paid ratably on the shares of Series A Preferred and all
                such
                parity stock on which dividends are payable or in arrears in proportion
                to
                the total amounts to which the holders of all such shares are then
                entitled; 

            

    

     

    
      	 	
              (iii)

            	
              redeem,
                purchase or otherwise acquire for consideration shares of any stock
                ranking junior (either as to dividends or upon liquidation, dissolution
                or
                winding up) to the shares of Series A Preferred; provided,
                however,
                that the Company may at any time redeem, purchase or otherwise acquire
                shares of any such junior stock in exchange for shares of any stock
                of the
                Company ranking junior (either as to dividends or upon dissolution,
                liquidation or winding up) to the shares of Series A Preferred;
                or

            

    

    
      
        
        

      

      
        A-3

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

    
      	
            	(iv)	
              redeem,
                purchase or otherwise acquire for consideration any shares of Series
                A
                Preferred, or any shares of stock ranking on a parity with the shares
                of
                Series A Preferred, except in accordance with a purchase offer made
                in
                writing or by publication (as determined by the Board) to all holders
                of
                such shares upon such terms as the Board, after consideration of
                the
                respective annual dividend rates and other relative rights and preferences
                of the respective series and classes, may determine in good faith
                will
                result in fair and equitable treatment among the respective series
                or
                classes. 

            

    

     

    (b) The
      Company will not permit any majority-owned subsidiary of the Company to purchase
      or otherwise acquire for consideration any shares of stock of the Company unless
      the Company could, under paragraph (a) of this Section 4, purchase or otherwise
      acquire such shares at such time and in such manner. 

     

    Section
      5. Reacquired
      Shares.
      Any
      shares of Series A Preferred purchased or otherwise acquired by the Company
      in
      any manner whatsoever will be retired and canceled promptly after the
      acquisition thereof. All such shares will upon their cancellation become
      authorized but unissued shares of Preferred Stock and may be reissued as part
      of
      a new series of Preferred Stock subject to the conditions and restrictions
      on
      issuance set forth herein, in the Certificate of Incorporation of the Company,
      or in any other Certificate of Designations creating a series of Preferred
      Stock
      or any similar stock or as otherwise required by law.

    

    Section
      6. Liquidation,
      Dissolution or Winding Up.
      Upon any
      liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, no distribution will
      be
      made (a) to the holders of shares of stock ranking junior (either as to
      dividends or upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up) to the shares of
      Series A Preferred unless, prior thereto, the holders of shares of Series A
      Preferred have received $100 per share; provided,
      however,
      that
      the holders of shares of Series A Preferred will be entitled to receive an
      aggregate amount per share, subject to the provision for adjustment hereinafter
      set forth, equal to one hundred (100) times the aggregate amount to be
      distributed per share to holders of shares of Common Stock or (b) to the holders
      of shares of stock ranking on a parity (either as to dividends or upon
      liquidation, dissolution or winding up) with the shares of Series A Preferred,
      except distributions made ratably on the shares of Series A Preferred and all
      such parity stock in proportion to the total amounts to which the holders of
      all
      such shares are entitled upon such liquidation, dissolution or winding up.
      In
      the event the Company at any time (i) declares a dividend on the outstanding
      shares of Common Stock payable in shares of Common Stock, (ii) subdivides the
      outstanding shares of Common Stock, (iii) combines the outstanding shares of
      Common Stock into a smaller number of shares or (iv) issues any shares of its
      capital stock in a reclassification of the outstanding shares of Common Stock
      (including any such reclassification in connection with a consolidation or
      merger in which the Company is the continuing or surviving corporation), then,
      in each such case and regardless of whether any shares of Series A Preferred
      are
      then issued or outstanding, the aggregate amount to which each holder of shares
      of Series A Preferred would otherwise be entitled immediately prior to such
      event under the proviso in clause (a) of the preceding sentence will be adjusted
      by multiplying such amount by a fraction, (1) the numerator of which is the
      number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event and
      (2) the denominator of which is the number of shares of Common Stock that were
      outstanding immediately prior to such event. 

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        A-4

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

    Section
      7. Consolidation,
      Merger, Etc.
      In the
      event that the Company enters into any consolidation, merger, combination or
      other transaction in which the shares of Common Stock are exchanged for or
      changed into other stock or securities, cash and/or any other property, then,
      in
      each such case, each share of Series A Preferred will at the same time be
      similarly exchanged for or changed into an amount per share, subject to the
      provision for adjustment hereinafter set forth, equal to one hundred (100)
      times
      the aggregate amount of stock, securities, cash and/or any other property
      (payable in kind), as the case may be, into which or for which each share of
      Common Stock is changed or exchanged. In the event the Company at any time
      (a)
      declares a dividend on the outstanding shares of Common Stock payable in shares
      of Common Stock, (b) subdivides the outstanding shares of Common Stock, (c)
      combines the outstanding shares of Common Stock in a smaller number of shares
      or
      (d) issues any shares of its capital stock in a reclassification of the
      outstanding shares of Common Stock (including any such reclassification in
      connection with a consolidation or merger in which the Company is the continuing
      or surviving corporation), then, in each such case and regardless of whether
      any
      shares of Series A Preferred are then issued or outstanding, the amount set
      forth in the preceding sentence with respect to the exchange or change of shares
      of Series A Preferred will be adjusted by multiplying such amount by a fraction,
      (1) the numerator of which is the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding
      immediately after such event and (2) the denominator of which is the number
      of
      shares of Common Stock that were outstanding immediately prior to such
      event.

    

    Section
      8. Redemption.
      The
      shares of Series A Preferred are not redeemable. 

     

    Section
      9. Rank.
      The
      Series A Preferred rank, with respect to the payment of dividends and the
      distribution of assets, junior to all other series of the Company’s Preferred
      Stock.

     

    Section
      10. Amendment.
      Notwithstanding anything contained in the Certificate of Incorporation of the
      Company to the contrary and in addition to any other vote required by applicable
      law, the Certificate of Incorporation of the Company may not be amended in
      any
      manner that would materially alter or change the powers, preferences or special
      rights of the Series A Preferred so as to affect them adversely without the
      affirmative vote of the holders of at least 51% of the outstanding shares of
      Series A Preferred, voting together as a single series.

    As

      kind of securities issuable upon the exercise of the Rights evidenced by this
      Right Certificate are subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of certain

    This
      Right Certificate is subject to all of the terms, provisions and conditions
      of
      the Rights Agreement, which terms, provisions and conditions are hereby
      incorporated herein by reference and made apart hereof and to which Rights
      Agreement reference is hereby made for a full description of the rights,
      limitations of rights, obligations, duties and immunities of the Rights Agent,
      the Company and the holders of the Right Certificates, which limitations of
      rights include the temporary suspension of the exercisability of the Rights
      under the circumstances specified in the Rights Agreement. Copies of the Rights
      Agreement are on file at the office of the Rights Agent and can be obtained

    Pursuant
      to the Rights Agreement, from and after the occurrence of a Flip-in Event,
      any
      Rights that are Beneficially Owned by (i) any Acquiring Person (or any Affiliate
      or Associate of any Acquiring Person), (ii) a transferee of any Acquiring Person
      (or any such Affiliate or Associate) who becomes a transferee after the
      occurrence of a Flip-in Event or (iii) a transferee of any Acquiring Person
      (or
      any such Affiliate or Associate) who became a transferee prior to or
      concurrently with the Flip-in Event pursuant to either (a) a transfer from
      an
      Acquiring Person to holders of its equity securities or to any Person with
      whom
      it has any continuing agreement, arrangement or understanding regarding the
      transferred Rights or (b) a transfer which the Board of Directors of the Company
      has determined is part of a plan, arrangement or understanding which has the
      purpose or effect of avoiding certain provisions of the Rights Agreement, and
      subsequent transferees of any of such Persons, will be void without any further
      action and any holder of such Rights will thereafter have no rights whatsoever
      with respect to such Rights under any provision of the Rights Agreement. From
      and after the occurrence of a Flip-in Event, no Right Certificate will be issued
      that represents Rights that are or have become void pursuant to the provisions
      of the Rights Agreement, and any Right Certificate delivered to the Rights
      Agent
      that represents Rights that are or have become void pursuant to the provisions
      of the Rights Agreement will be canceled.

    

    This
      Right Certificate, with or without other Right Certificates, may be transferred,
      split up, combined or exchanged for another Right Certificate or Right
      Certificates entitling the holder to purchase a like number of one
      one-hundredths of a Preferred Share (or other securities, as the case may be)
      as
      the Right Certificate or Right Certificates surrendered entitled such holder
      (or
      former holder in the case of a transfer) to purchase, upon presentation and
      surrender hereof at the principal office of the Rights Agent designated for
      such
      purpose, with the Form of Assignment (if appropriate) and the related
      Certificate duly executed.

    

    Subject
      to the provisions of the Rights Agreement, the Rights evidenced by this
      Certificate may be redeemed by the Company at its option at a redemption price
      of $0.0001 per Right or may be exchanged in whole or in part. The Rights
      Agreement may be supplemented and amended by the Company, as provided therein.
      

    

    The
      Company is not required to issue fractions of Preferred Shares (other than
      fractions which are integral multiples of one one-hundredth of a Preferred
      Share, which may, at the option of the Company, be evidenced by depositary
      receipts) or other securities issuable upon the exercise of any Right or Rights
      evidenced hereby. In lieu of issuing such fractional Preferred Shares or other
      securities, the Company may make a cash payment, as provided in the Rights
      Agreement.

    No
      holder
      of this Right Certificate, as such, will be entitled to vote or receive
      dividends or be deemed for any purpose the holder of the Preferred Shares or
      of
      any other securities of the Company which may at any time be issuable upon
      the
      exercise of the Right or Rights represented hereby, nor will anything contained
      herein or in the Rights Agreement be construed to confer upon the holder hereof,
      as such, any of the rights of a stockholder of the Company or any right to
      vote
      for the election of directors or upon any ratter submitted to stockholders
      at
      any meeting thereof, or to give or withhold consent to any corporate action,
      or
      to receive notice of meetings or other actions affecting stockholders (except
      as
      provided in the Rights Agreement), or to receive dividends or subscription
      rights, or otherwise, until the Right or Rights evidenced by this Right
      Certificate have been exercised in accordance with the provisions of the Rights
      Agreement.

    EXHIBIT

    SUMMARY
      OF RIGHTS TO PURCHASE PREFERRED STOCK

     

    On
      February 7, 2008, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Clarus Corporation, a
      Delaware corporation (the “Company”), adopted a rights plan and declared a
      dividend of one preferred share purchase right for each outstanding share of
      common stock. The dividend is payable to the Company’s stockholders as of the
      record date of February 12, 2008. The terms of the rights and the rights plan
      are set forth in a Rights Agreement, by and between the Company and American
      Stock Transfer & Trust Company , a New York corporation, as Rights Agent,
      dated as of February 12, 2008.

    

    This
      summary of rights provides only a general description of the rights plan, and
      thus, should be read together with the entire rights plan, which is incorporated
      in this summary by reference. Upon written request, the Company will provide
      a
      copy of the rights plan free of charge to any of its stockholder. 

    

    By
      adopting the rights plan, the Company’s Board protects stockholder value because
      the rights plan protects the Company’s ability to carry forward its net
      operating losses (the “NOLs”). In prior years, the Company has experienced
      substantial operating losses, and under the Internal Revenue Code and rules
      promulgated by the Internal Revenue Service, the Company may “carry forward”
these losses in certain circumstances to offset current and future earnings
      and
      thus, reduce the Company’s federal income tax liability, subject to certain
      requirements and restrictions. However, if the Company experiences an “Ownership
      Change,” as defined in Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code, the Company’s
      ability to use its NOLs could be substantially limited or lost
      altogether.

    

    The
      Company’s rights plan imposes a significant penalty upon any person or group
      that acquires 4.9% or more of its outstanding common stock without the prior
      approval of the Company’s Board. Stockholders who own 4.9% or more of the
      Company’s outstanding common stock as of the close of business on February 12,
      2008 may not acquire any additional shares of the Company’s common stock. A
      person or group that acquires shares of the Company’s common stock in excess of
      the above-mentioned applicable threshold of the Company’s common stock is called
      an “Acquiring Person.” Any rights held by an Acquiring Person are void and may
      not be exercised. The Company’s Board may exempt any person or group from being
      deemed an Acquiring Person for purposes of the rights plan.

    

    The
      Rights.
      The
      Company’s Board authorized the issuance of one right per each outstanding share
      of the Company’s common stock on February 12, 2008. If the rights become
      exercisable, each right would allow its holder to purchase from the Company
      one
      one-hundredth of a share of the Company’s Series A Junior Participating
      Preferred Stock for a purchase price of $12. Each fractional share of preferred
      stock would give the stockholder approximately the same dividend, voting and
      liquidation rights as does one share of the Company’s common stock. However, a
      right does not give its holder any dividend, voting or liquidation rights prior
      to exercise. 

    

    Exercisability.
      The
      rights will not be exercisable until 10 days after a public announcement by
      the
      Company that a person or group has become an Acquiring Person. 

    

    The
      Company refers to the date that the rights become exercisable as the
“Distribution Date.” Until the Distribution Date, the Company’s common stock
      certificates will evidence the rights and will contain a notation to that
      effect. Any transfer of shares of common stock prior to the Distribution Date
      will constitute a transfer of the associated rights. After the Distribution
      Date, the rights will separate from the common stock and will be evidenced
      by
      rights certificates, which the Company will mail to all holders of rights that
      have not become void.

    Flip-in
      Event.
      After
      the Distribution Date, if a person or group already is or becomes an Acquiring
      Person, all holders of rights, except the acquiring person, may exercise their
      rights upon payment of the purchase price to purchase shares of the Company’s
      common stock (or other securities or assets as determined by the Company’s
      Board) with a market value of two times the purchase price.

    

    Flip-over
      Event.
      After
      the Distribution Date, if a flip-in event has already occurred and the Company
      is acquired in a merger or similar transaction, all holders of rights except
      the
      Acquiring Person may exercise their rights upon payment of the purchase price,
      to purchase shares of the acquiring corporation with a market value of two
      times
      the purchase price of the rights.

    

    Rights
      may be exercised to purchase the Company’s preferred shares only after the
      Distribution Date occurs and prior to the occurrence of a flip-in event as
      described above. A Distribution Date resulting from any occurrence described
      above would necessarily follow the occurrence of a flip-in event, in which
      case
      the rights could be exercised to purchase shares of common stock or other
      securities as described above.

    

    Expiration.
      The
      rights will expire at such time at which the Company’s Board of Directors
      determines that the NOLs are fully utilized or no longer available under Section
      382 of the Internal Revenue Code, unless earlier redeemed or
      exchanged.

    

    Redemption.
      The
      Company’s Board may redeem all (but not less than all) of the rights for a
      redemption price of $0.0001 per right at any time before the later of the
      Distribution Date and the date of the first public announcement or disclosure
      by
      the Company that a person or group has become an Acquiring Person. Once the
      rights are redeemed, the right to exercise rights will terminate, and the only
      right of the holders of rights will be to receive the redemption price. The
      redemption price will be adjusted if the Company declares a stock split or
      issues a stock dividend on its common stock.

    

    Exchange.
      After
      the later of the distribution date and the date of the first public announcement
      by the Company that a person or group has become an Acquiring Person, but before
      an Acquiring Person owns 50% or more of the Company’s outstanding common stock,
      the Company’s Board may exchange each right (other than rights that have become
      void) for one share of common stock or an equivalent security. 

    

    Anti-Dilution
      Provisions.
      The
      Company’s Board may adjust the purchase price of the preferred shares, the
      number of preferred shares issuable and the number of outstanding rights to
      prevent dilution that may occur as a result of certain events, including among
      others, a stock dividend, a stock split or a reclassification of the preferred
      shares or the Company’s common stock. No adjustments to the purchase price of
      less than 1% will be made.

    

    Amendments.
      Before
      the time the rights cease to be redeemable, the Company’s Board may amend or
      supplement the rights plan without the consent of the holders of the rights,
      except that no amendment may decrease the redemption price. At any time
      thereafter, the Company’s Board may amend or supplement the rights plan only to
      cure an ambiguity, to alter time period provisions, to correct inconsistent
      provisions or to make any additional changes to the rights plan, but only to
      the
      extent that those changes do not impair or adversely affect any rights holder
      and do not result in the rights again becoming redeemable.

    $500,000.00                                                                                 February
      12, 2008

    

    This
      Convertible Promissory Note (this “Note”)
      is
      made and delivered pursuant to the terms of that certain Agreement and Plan
      of
      Reorganization dated the date hereof and entered into by and among Cellegy
      Pharmaceuticals, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Cellegy”),
      Adamis Pharmaceuticals Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“Adamis”),
      and
      Cellegy Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary
      of
      Cellegy (the “Merger
      Agreement”).
      

    

    1. Obligation.
      For
      value received, Adamis promises to pay to Cellegy, at such address as Cellegy
      may from time to time designate, the sum of Five Hundred Thousand Dollars
      ($500,000), together with interest on the outstanding principal amount for
      the
      period commencing on the date of this Note until such principal is paid in
      full
      at a rate per annum equal to ten percent (10.0%) (the “Interest
      Rate”),
      calculated on the basis of a 365-day year and actual days elapsed (including
      the
      first day, but excluding the last day) occurring in the period for which such
      interest is payable. All interest shall accrue hereunder and be payable on
      the
      Maturity Date (as defined below).

    

    2. Payment
      Dates.
      Unless
      converted prior thereto, Adamis shall make payment in full of all unpaid
      principal, interest and other amounts owed under this Note on the Maturity
      Date.
      The “Maturity
      Date”
means
      the first to occur of (i) the date of the termination of the Merger Agreement
      (a) by Adamis for any reason other than Cellegy’s failure to satisfy its closing
      conditions or (b) by Cellegy due to Adamis’ failure to satisfy its closing
      conditions, or (ii) the later of (a) the sixteenth month anniversary of the
      date
      of this Note or (b) the date that is two business days following the first
      date
      on which all of the notes issued to Imperium Master Fund, Ltd. (“Imperium”)
      pursuant to the Securities Purchase and Loan Agreement dated December 21, 2007
      by and between Adamis and Imperium (collectively, the “Imperium
      Notes”)
      have
      been repaid in full, including any default interest thereon, and are no longer
      outstanding. Each payment payable by Adamis hereunder shall be made without
      set-off or counterclaim and shall be free and clear of any restrictions or
      conditions of any nature.

     

    
      
         

        
        

      

      
        1

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

     

    3. Prepayment.
      Adamis
      shall make all payments that may be due hereunder in lawful money of the United
      States of America, and may prepay any and all principal and interest at any
      time
      without penalty, upon prior notice to Cellegy. 

    

    4. Default.
      The
      occurrence of any of the following shall constitute an “Event
      of Default”
under
      this Note: 

    

    a. delivery
      by Cellegy of a notice of default to Adamis following Adamis’ failure to pay any
      amount when due under this Note, if such default is not cured within twenty
      (20)
      business days after delivery of such notice; 

    

    b. a
      material default in the due performance or observance of any of Adamis’ material
      obligations under this Note, or a material breach of any material representation
      or warranty of Adamis under this Note, in each case which is not cured within
      twenty (20) business days after delivery of notice from Cellegy; 

    

    c. Adamis
      shall
      (any of the foregoing referred to as an “Insolvency
      Event”):

    

    
      	 	
              (i)

            	
              apply
                for or consent to the appointment of a trustee, receiver, sequestrator
                or
                other custodian for Adamis or for any substantial part of its property,
                or
                make a general assignment for the benefit of its
                creditors;

            

    

     

    
      	 	
              (ii)

            	
              in
                the absence of such application or consent, acquiesce in, or permit
                or
                suffer to exist, the involuntary appointment of a trustee, receiver,
                sequestrator or other custodian for Adamis or for a substantial part
                of
                its property, and such trustee, receiver, sequestrator or other custodian
                shall not be discharged within forty-five (45)
                days;

            

    

     

    
      	 	
              (iii)

            	
              permit
                the involuntary commencement of, or voluntarily commence, any insolvency
                proceedings under any bankruptcy or insolvency laws of the United
                States
                or any State thereof, or other similar laws, rules or regulations
                of such
                jurisdictions, covering the protection of creditors’ rights or the relief
                of debtors. (“Insolvency
                Laws”),
                or permit the involuntary commencement of, or voluntarily commence,
                any
                dissolution, winding up or liquidation proceeding, in each case,
                by or
                against Adamis, provided that, if not commenced by Adamis, such proceeding
                shall be consented to or acquiesced in by Adamis, or shall result
                in the
                entry of an order for relief or shall remain undismissed for more
                than
                forty-five (45) days; or

            

    

     

    
      	 	
              (iv)

            	
              take
                any corporate action authorizing any of the
                foregoing.

            

    

     

    Upon
      the
      occurrence of an Event of Default, (1) if and only if the Imperium Notes have
      been repaid in full, including any default interest, and are no longer
      outstanding, then, with notice to Adamis, Cellegy may declare all sums hereunder
      to be immediately due and payable, whereupon such principal and other
      obligations shall become and be immediately due and payable, in each case,
      without notice, demand, presentment or other action of any kind, all of which
      are hereby expressly and irrevocably waived by Adamis, or (2) if the Imperium
      Notes remain outstanding, Cellegy may convert the Obligations as contemplated
      by
      Section 7.2 hereof.

     

    
      
         

        
        

      

      
        2

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

     

    5. Interest
      on Overdue Amounts; Limitation on Interest.
      Adamis
      agrees that upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, in lieu of the interest
      payable under Section 1 above, the outstanding principal balance shall
      immediately begin to accrue interest at a rate equal
      to
      the
      Interest Rate plus
      five
      percent (5%) per annum, commencing on the date of the Event of Default and
      continuing until paid in full. In no event, however, shall the default interest
      rate exceed the maximum amount permitted by law. Nothing in this Note or any
      document securing payment hereof is to be construed as requiring payment of
      interest at a rate in excess of the maximum rate permitted to be charged under
      the laws of the State of California. Neither Adamis nor any other party who
      may
      hereafter become liable or responsible for the payment of this Note shall be
      required to pay interest on this Note at a rate which exceeds the maximum rate
      permitted by California law. If
      by the
      terms of this Note Adamis is at any time required or obligated to pay interest
      on the principal amount of this Note at a rate in excess of such maximum rate,
      the rate of interest under this Note shall be deemed to be immediately reduced
      to such maximum rate and the interest payable shall be computed at a maximum
      rate and all prior interest payments in excess of such maximum rate shall be
      applied and shall be deemed to have been payments in reduction of the principal
      balance of this Note.

    

    6. Representations
      and Warranties of Adamis.
      Adamis
      represents and warrants to Cellegy as follows: (a) Adamis has received from
      Cellegy on the date hereof the cash proceeds of the Loan in the original
      principal amount stated above, by wire transfer of such amount to an account
      designated in writing by Adamis; and (b) this Note constitutes the legal, valid
      and binding obligation of Adamis, enforceable against Adamis in accordance
      with
      its terms, except to the extent that the enforceability thereof may be limited
      by or subject to bankruptcy or Insolvency Laws or moratorium or other similar
      laws now or hereafter in effect affecting creditors’ right
      generally.

    

    7. Conversion.

     

    7.1 Mandatory
      Conversion.
      In the
      event the Effective Time of the Merger (as defined in the Merger Agreement)
      precedes the Maturity Date, immediately prior to the Effective Time all
      principal, interest and other amounts due Cellegy hereunder (collectively,
      the
“Obligations”)
      shall,
      without any further action by Cellegy, automatically convert into a number
      of
      fully-paid and nonassessable shares of Adamis common stock (the “Conversion
      Shares”)
      equal
      to the amount of the Obligations divided by $0.50 (such price referred to as
      the
“Conversion
      Price”).
      

     

    (a) Optional
      Conversion Following Event of Default.
      Following the occurrence of an Event of Default, if Adamis does not timely
      pay
      the Obligations, then at any time thereafter Cellegy may, by notice to Adamis
      (a
“Conversion
      Notice”),
      convert the Obligations into the number of Conversion Shares equal to the total
      amount of the Obligations, divided by the Conversion Price. 

     

    
      
         

        
        

      

      
        3

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

     

    7.2 Conversion
      Procedure.
      In the
      event of an optional conversion pursuant to Section 7.2 hereof, within five
      (5)
      business days of the delivery by Cellegy of a Conversion Notice, Adamis shall
      deliver to Cellegy a notice specifying the Conversion Price, describing in
      reasonable detail the manner in which the Conversion Price was calculated,
      and
      shall provide such additional information as Cellegy may reasonably request
      concerning the facts relating to the determination of the Conversion Price.
      Upon
      the conversion of this Note pursuant to Section 7.2 hereof and return by Cellegy
      of this Note to Adamis for cancellation, Adamis at its expense will issue and
      deliver to Cellegy a certificate (bearing such legends as are required by
      applicable state and federal securities laws in the opinion of counsel to
      Adamis) for the number of full shares of Common Stock issuable upon such
      conversion. Upon conversion, this Note shall be canceled and discharged in
      full
      and no further amounts shall be due hereunder. 

     

    7.3 No
      Fractional Shares.
      No
      fractional Conversion Shares shall be issued upon conversion of this Note.
      In
      lieu of Adamis issuing any fractional shares to Cellegy upon the conversion
      of
      this Note, Adamis shall pay to Cellegy the amount of outstanding principal
      and
      interest hereunder that is not so converted. 

     

    7.4 Adjustments
      to Shares.
      If the
      capital stock issuable upon conversion of this Note shall be changed into the
      same or a different number of shares of any other class or classes of stock,
      whether by stock split, stock dividend, capital reorganization,
      reclassification, merger or other corporate combination, or other similar
      transaction, the conversion price of this Note then in effect shall,
      concurrently with the effectiveness of such reorganization or reclassification,
      be proportionately adjusted so that this Note shall be convertible into, in
      lieu
      of the number of shares of capital stock which the holders would otherwise
      have
      been entitled to receive, a number of shares of such other class or classes
      of
      stock equivalent to the number of shares of capital stock that would have been
      received by Cellegy immediately following such change if Cellegy had converted
      this Note immediately prior to such change.

     

    8. Acknowledgment,
      Representations and Warranties of Cellegy.
      Cellegy
      understands and acknowledges that neither this Note nor the Conversion Shares
      have been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
“Act”),
      or
      any state securities laws. Cellegy hereby represents and warrants to Adamis
      that:

     

    8.1 This
      Note
      and, if applicable, the Conversion Shares (collectively, the “Securities”)
      have
      been acquired by Cellegy for investment and not with a view to the sale or
      other
      distribution thereof within the meaning of the Act, and Cellegy has no present
      intention of selling or otherwise disposing of all or any portion of the
      Securities.

     

    8.2 Cellegy
      has acquired the Securities for Cellegy’s own account only, and no other person
      or entity has any beneficial ownership in the Securities.

     

    8.3 Cellegy
      is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of any investment in the
      Securities, is financially capable of bearing a total loss of this investment
      and has either (i) a preexisting personal or business relationship with
      Adamis or its principals or (ii) by reason of Cellegy’s business or
      financial experience, has the capacity to protect its own interest in connection
      with this investment.

     

    
      
         

        
        

      

      
        4

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

     

    8.4 Cellegy
      has had access to all information regarding Adamis, its present and prospective
      business, assets, liabilities and financial condition that Cellegy considers
      important to making the decision to acquire the Securities and has had the
      opportunity to ask questions of and receive answers from Adamis’ representatives
      concerning an investment in the Securities and to obtain any and all documents
      requested in order to supplement or verify any of the information
      supplied.

     

    8.5 Cellegy
      understands that the Securities are deemed restricted securities under the
      Act
      and may not be resold unless they are registered under the Act and qualified
      under any applicable state securities law, or unless sale, transfer or other
      Disposition of the Securities is exempt from such registration and qualification
      requirements, and Cellegy will not make any sale or other disposition of any
      of
      the Securities unless such sale or disposition is so registered or exempt.
      Cellegy is familiar with Rule 144 promulgated under the Act and understands
      that
      Rule 144 may prohibit or restrict subsequent resale, transfer or disposition
      of
      the Conversion Shares. Cellegy understands that no public market now exists
      for
      any of the securities issued by Adamis and that Adamis has made no assurances
      that a public market will ever exist for any of Adamis’ securities.

     

    9. Subordination.
      The
      indebtedness evidenced by this Note is subordinated in right of payment to
      the
      prior payment in full of any indebtedness of Adamis outstanding as of the date
      hereof and Senior Indebtedness. “Senior
      Indebtedness”
      shall
      mean, unless expressly subordinated to or made on a parity with the amounts
      due
      under this Note, all amounts due in connection with (a) indebtedness of Adamis
      to banks or other lending institutions regularly engaged in the business of
      lending money, and (b) any such indebtedness or any debentures, notes or other
      evidence of indebtedness issued in exchange for such Senior Indebtedness, or
      any
      indebtedness arising from the satisfaction of such Senior Indebtedness by a
      guarantor. 

     

    9.1 Insolvency
      Proceedings.
      If
      there shall occur any receivership, insolvency, assignment for the benefit

      such waiver shall affect or impair the rights of Cellegy to require observance,
      performance, or satisfaction, either of that term or condition as it applies
      on
      a subsequent occasion or of any other term or condition of this Note. Adamis
      hereby unconditionally and irrevocably waives notice of acceptance, presentment,
      notice of nonpayment, protest, notice of protest, suit and all other conditions
      precedent in connection with the delivery, acceptance, collection and/or
      enforcement of this Note or any collateral or security therefor or any
      guarantees hereof.

      action arising out of relating to this Note, the prevailing party shall be
      entitled to recover from each other party all of its attorneys fees and costs,
      in addition to costs and expenses otherwise allowed by law, and Adamis agrees
      to
      pay all of Cellegy’s reasonable costs and expenses, including reasonable
      attorneys’ fees, that may be incurred in forcing or protecting Cellegy’s rights
      or interests hereunder.

      and remedies shall be cumulative, including those available hereunder and

    16. General
      Provisions.

      enforcement of any waiver, amendment, change, modification or discharge is
      sought. The provisions of this Note shall be binding upon and inure to the
