SECTION 1.           Representations and Warranties of
the Stockholders.  Each  Stockholder hereby severally represents and
warrants to Parent as follows:

 

(a)           Authority; Execution and Delivery;
Enforceability.

 

(i)            If such Stockholder is other than a
natural person, such Stockholder (x) is duly organized, validly existing and in
good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of organization and (y) has
all requisite corporate power and authority to execute and deliver this
Agreement and to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.  The execution and delivery of this Agreement
by such Stockholder and the consummation by such Stockholder of the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement have been duly authorized by all
necessary corporate action on the part of such Stockholder and no other
corporate proceedings on the part of such Stockholder are necessary to
authorize this Agreement or to consummate the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement.  The execution and delivery
of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement and compliance with the provisions of this Agreement do not and will
not conflict with, or result in any violation or

 

 

breach of, any certificate of incorporation
or by-laws, partnership agreement or limited liability company agreement (or
similar organizational documents) of such Stockholder.

 

(ii)           If such Stockholder is a natural
person, such Stockholder has all power and authority to execute and deliver
this Agreement and to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

 

(iii)          This Agreement has been duly executed
and delivered by such Stockholder and constitutes a valid and binding
obligation of such Stockholder, enforceable against such Stockholder in
accordance with its terms, subject to bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent
transfer, reorganization, moratorium and similar laws of general applicability
relating to or affecting creditors’ rights and to general equity
principles.  The execution and delivery
of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement and compliance with the provisions of this Agreement do not and will
not conflict with, or result in any violation or breach of, or default (with or
without notice or lapse of time, or both) under, or give rise to a right of, or
result in, termination, cancellation or acceleration of any obligation or to
loss of a material benefit under, or result in the creation of any Lien in or
upon any of the properties or assets of such Stockholder under, or give rise to
any increased, additional, accelerated or guaranteed rights or entitlements
under, any provision of (i) any material Contract to which such Stockholder is
a party or any of the Subject Shares are subject or (ii) subject to the
governmental filings and other matters referred to in the following sentence,
any (A) Law or (B) Judgment, in each case, applicable to such Stockholder or
the Subject Shares, other than, in the case of the foregoing clauses (i) and
(ii), any such conflicts, violations, breaches, defaults, rights, losses, Liens
or entitlements, that, individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably
be expected to impair the ability of such Stockholder to perform its
obligations under this Agreement or prevent or materially impede or delay the
consummation of any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.  No consent of, or registration, declaration
or filing with, any Governmental Entity is required by or with respect to such
Stockholder in connection with the execution and delivery of this Agreement by
such Stockholder or the consummation by such Stockholder of the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement or the compliance by such Stockholder with the
provisions of this Agreement, except for (1) filings under the HSR Act and any
other applicable competition, merger control, antitrust or similar law, (2)
filings with the SEC of such reports under the Exchange Act as may be required
in connection with this Agreement and (3) such other items and consents the
failure of which to be obtained or made, individually or in the aggregate,
would not reasonably be expected to impair the ability of such Stockholder to
perform its obligations under this Agreement or prevent or materially impede or
delay the consummation of any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

 

(b)           The Subject Shares.  Such Stockholder is the record and
beneficial owner of and has good and valid title to, the Original Shares, free
and clear of any Liens, other than those created or permitted by this Agreement
or created by the Stockholder’s Agreement, dated as of November 12, 1996,
between Songbird and Rakepoll Finance N.V. or as would not reasonably be
expected to impair any Stockholder’s ability to perform its obligations under
this Agreement.  As of the date of this
Agreement, the Stockholder does not own of record any shares of capital stock
of the Company other than the Original Shares, nor does such Stockholder
beneficially own any shares of capital stock of the Company other than the
Subject Shares, and, except as listed on Exhibit A such Stockholder does not
own (of record or beneficially) any

 

2

 

options, warrants, rights or other similar
instruments to acquire any capital stock or other voting securities of the
Company (“Share Acquisition Rights”). 
Such Stockholder has the sole right to vote the Original Shares and
Transfer (as defined in Section 3(c)) the Subject Shares, and none of the
Subject Shares is subject to any voting trust or other agreement, arrangement
or restriction with respect to the voting or the Transfer of the Subject
Shares, except as set forth in Sections 3 and 4 of this Agreement or as
otherwise permitted by this Agreement.

 

SECTION 2.           Representations and Warranties of
Parent.  Parent hereby represents
and warrants to each Stockholder as follows: 
Parent is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good
standing under the Laws of its jurisdiction of incorporation.  Parent has all requisite corporate power and
authority to execute and deliver this Agreement and to consummate the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Merger Agreement
(collectively, the “Transactions”). 
The execution and delivery of this Agreement by Parent and the
consummation of the Transactions have been duly authorized by all necessary
corporate action on the part of Parent and no other corporate proceedings on
the part of Parent are necessary to authorize this Agreement or to consummate
the Transactions.  This Agreement has been
duly executed and delivered by Parent and constitutes a valid and binding
obligation of Parent, enforceable against Parent in accordance with its
terms.  The execution and delivery of
this Agreement and the consummation of the Transactions do not and will not
conflict with, or result in any violation or breach of, or default (with or
without notice or lapse of time, or both) under, or give rise to a right of, or
result in, termination, cancellation or acceleration of any obligation or to
loss of a material benefit under, or result in the creation of any Lien upon
any of the properties or assets of Parent under, or give rise to any increased,
additional, accelerated or guaranteed rights or entitlements under, any
provision of (i) the memorandum or articles of association or similar
organizational documents of Parent, (ii) any Contract applicable to Parent or
its properties or assets or subject to the governmental filings and other
matters referred to in the following sentence, any (A) Laws or Judgments in
each case, applicable to Parent or its properties or assets, other than, in the
case of clauses (ii) and (iii), any such conflicts, violations, breaches,
defaults, rights, losses, Liens or entitlements that, individually or in the
aggregate, would not have a Robin Material Adverse Effect or impair the ability
of Parent to consummate the Transactions or prevent or materially impede or
delay the consummation of the Transactions. 
No consent of, or registration, declaration or filing with, any
Governmental Entity is required by or with respect to Parent in connection with
the execution and delivery of this Agreement by Parent or the consummation by
Parent of the Transactions, except for (1) filings under the HSR Act and the
Foreign Antitrust Filings, (2) filings with the SEC of such documents under the
Securities Act and the Exchange Act as may be required in connection with this
Agreement, the Merger Agreement and the Merger, (3) the filing of the
Certificate of Merger with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware and
appropriate documents with the relevant authorities of the other jurisdictions
in which the Company is qualified to do business, (4) filings with the ISA, the
TASE and NASDAQ and (5) such other items and consents, the failure of which to
be obtained or made, individually or in the aggregate, would not have a Robin
Material Adverse Effect or impair the ability of Parent to consummate the
Transactions or prevent or materially impede or delay the consummation of the
Transactions.

SECTION 3.           Covenants
of the Stockholders.  Each
Stockholder severally covenants and agrees as follows:

 

(a)           At any meeting of the stockholders of
the Company called to vote upon the Merger Agreement, the Merger or any other
Transactions, or at any adjournment or postponement thereof, or in any other
circumstances upon which a vote, consent, adoption or other approval (including
by written consent solicitation) with respect to the Merger Agreement, the
Merger or any other Transactions is sought, such Stockholder shall vote (or
cause to be voted) all of the Original Shares of such Stockholder and any other
Subject Shares then owned of record and beneficially by such Stockholder in
favor of the adoption of the Merger Agreement and the approval of the terms
thereof and of the Merger and each of the other Transactions.

 

(b)           At any meeting of the stockholders of
the Company or at any adjournment or postponement thereof or in any other
circumstances upon which a vote, consent, adoption or other approval is sought,
the Stockholder shall vote (or cause to be voted) all of the Original Shares of
such Stockholder and any other Subject Shares then owned of record and
beneficially by such Stockholder against, and shall not consent in writing to
(and shall cause not to be consented in writing to), any of the following (or
any agreement to enter into, effect, facilitate or support any of the
following): (i) any Acquisition Proposal or transaction or occurrence that if
proposed and offered to the Company or its stockholders (or any of them) would
constitute an Acquisition Proposal (collectively, “Alternative Transactions”)
or (ii) any amendment of the Company’s certificate of incorporation, the
Company’s by-laws or the Songbird Stockholder Rights Plan or other proposal,
action or transaction involving the Company or any of its stockholders, which
amendment or other proposal, action or transaction would reasonably be expected
to prevent or materially impede or delay the consummation of the Merger or the
other Transactions or change in any manner the voting rights of the Songbird
Common Stock (collectively, “Frustrating Transactions”).

 

(c)           Other than pursuant to this
Agreement, such Stockholder shall not (i) sell, transfer, pledge, assign or
otherwise dispose of (including by gift) (collectively, “Transfer”) or
enter into any Contract, option or other arrangement (including any profit
sharing arrangement) with respect to the Transfer of, or the creation or offer
of any derivative security in respect of, any Subject Shares or Share Acquisition
Rights, to or with any person other than pursuant to the Merger or (ii) enter
into any voting arrangement, whether by proxy, voting agreement or otherwise,
with respect to any Subject Shares or Share Acquisition Rights, and shall not
commit or agree to take any of the foregoing actions; provided that, the foregoing requirements shall not prohibit
any Transfer under any Stockholder’s will or pursuant to the laws of descent
and distribution or any such Transfer to an immediate family member or a family
trust for the benefit of immediate family member(s), so long as, in each case,
as a precondition to such Transfer the transferee:  (x) executes a counterpart of this Agreement; and
(y) agrees in writing to hold such Subject Shares or Share Acquisition Rights
(or interest in such Subject Shares or Share Acquisition Rights) subject to all
of the terms and provisions of this Agreement; and provided,
further, that a Stockholder may, with the consent of Parent (which
consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), pledge or encumber any Subject
Shares or Share Acquisition Rights so long as such pledge or encumbrance would
not impair such Stockholder’s ability to perform its obligations under this
Agreement.  Such Stockholder shall not,
nor shall such Stockholder permit any entity under such Stockholder’s control
to, deposit any Subject Shares in a voting trust.

(d)           To the extent reasonably requested by
Parent, such Stockholder shall use all commercially reasonable efforts to take,
or cause to be taken, all actions, and to do, or cause to be done, and to
assist and cooperate with Parent in doing, all things necessary to consummate,
in the most expeditious manner practicable, the Transactions.  Such Stockholder shall not commit or agree
to take any action inconsistent with the Transactions.

 

(e)           Such
Stockholder shall not, nor shall such Stockholder permit any of its
subsidiaries to, and such Stockholder shall use all commercially reasonable
efforts to cause its and its subsidiaries’ Representatives, directors, officers

would reasonably be expected to lead to, any Acquisition Proposal or
Frustrating Transaction, (ii) enter into any agreement with respect to any
Acquisition Proposal or Frustrating Transaction or (iii) enter into, continue

shall use all commercially reasonable efforts to cause its and its

(g)           Such Stockholder hereby waives any
appraisal rights with respect to any and all shares of Songbird Common Stock
owned (of record or beneficially) by such Stockholder in connection with the
Merger that such Stockholder may have.

 

(h)           Nothing in this Agreement shall be
interpreted as obligating any Stockholder to exercise any Share Acquisition
Rights.

 

SECTION 4.           Grant of Irrevocable Proxy;
Appointment of Proxy.  (a) Each
Stockholder hereby severally irrevocably grants to, and appoints, William A.
Fletcher, George Barrett or Richard Egosi, in their respective capacities as
designees of Parent, and each of them individually, or any of them, such
Stockholder’s proxy and attorney-in-fact (with full power of substitution), for
and in the name, place and stead of such Stockholder, to vote all of such
Stockholder’s Subject Shares (owned of record) in accordance with Section 3 of
this Agreement.

 

(b)           Each Stockholder represents that any
proxies heretofore given in respect of such Stockholder’s Subject Shares are
not irrevocable and that all such proxies are hereby revoked.

 

(c)           Each Stockholder understands and
acknowledges that Parent is entering into the Merger Agreement in reliance upon
such Stockholder’s execution and delivery of this Agreement.  Such Stockholder hereby affirms that the
irrevocable proxy set forth in this Section 4 is given in connection with the
execution of the Merger Agreement and that such irrevocable proxy is given to
secure the performance of the duties of such Stockholder under this
Agreement.  Such Stockholder hereby
further affirms that the irrevocable proxy is coupled with an interest

 

5

 

and may under no circumstances be
revoked.  Such Stockholder hereby
ratifies and confirms all that such irrevocable proxy may lawfully do or cause
to be done by virtue hereof.  The
irrevocable proxy is executed and intended to be irrevocable in accordance with
the provisions of Section 212(e) of the DGCL.

 

SECTION 5.           Further Assurances.  Each Stockholder shall from time to time
execute and deliver, or cause to be executed and delivered, such additional or
further consents, documents and other instruments as requested by Parent that
are necessary to carry out the purpose and intent of this Agreement.

 

SECTION 6.           Certain Events.  Each Stockholder severally agrees that this
Agreement and the obligations hereunder shall attach to the Subject Shares and
shall be binding upon any person or entity to which legal or beneficial
ownership of any Subject Shares shall pass, whether by operation of law or
otherwise, including such Stockholder’s administrators or successors, and such
Stockholder further agrees to take all actions necessary to effectuate the
foregoing.  Each Stockholder severally
agrees that each certificate representing the Subject Shares shall be inscribed
with a legend to such effect.  In the
event of any stock split, stock dividend, reclassification, merger,
reorganization, recapitalization or other change in the capital structure of
the Company affecting the capital stock of the Company, the number of Original
Shares shall be adjusted appropriately. 
In addition, in the event of any other acquisition (of record or
beneficially) of additional shares of Songbird Common Stock, other capital
stock of the Company or other voting securities of the Company by such
Stockholder (including through the exercise of any warrants, stock options or
similar instruments), the number of Subject Shares listed on Schedule A hereto
beside the name of such Stockholder shall be adjusted appropriately.  This Agreement and the representations,
warranties, covenants, agreements and obligations hereunder shall attach to any
additional shares of Songbird Common Stock, other capital stock of the Company
or other voting securities of the Company issued to or acquired (of record or
beneficially) by any Stockholder directly or indirectly (including through the
exercise of any warrants, stock options or similar instruments).

 

SECTION 7.           Assignment.  Neither this Agreement nor any of the
rights, interests or obligations under this Agreement shall be assigned, in
whole or in part, by operation of Law or otherwise, by any of the parties
hereto without the prior written consent of the other parties hereto, except
that Parent may assign, in its sole discretion, any of or all its rights,
interests and obligations under this Agreement to any direct or indirect wholly
owned subsidiary of Parent, but no such assignment shall relieve Parent of any
of its obligations under this Agreement. 
Any purported assignment in violation of this Section 7 shall be
void.  Subject to the preceding
sentences of this Section 7, this Agreement shall be binding upon, inure to the
benefit of and be enforceable by, the parties hereto and their respective
successors and assigns.

 

SECTION 8.           Termination.  Except as set forth below, this Agreement
shall terminate upon the earliest of (i) the Effective Time, (ii) the date of
termination of the Merger Agreement and (iii) the date of any material
modification, waiver or amendment of the Merger Agreement that affects
adversely the consideration payable to stockholders of Songbird pursuant to the
Merger Agreement.  In the event of the
termination of this Agreement pursuant to this Section 8, except as set forth
herein, this Agreement shall forthwith become null and void, there shall be no
liability on the part of any of the parties, and all rights and obligations of
each party

 

6

 

hereto shall cease except that this Section 8
and Sections 9 and 11 shall survive such termination and; provided, that
no such termination of this Agreement shall relieve any party hereto from any
liability for any breach of any provision of this Agreement prior to
termination.

 

SECTION 9.           General Provisions.  (a) Amendments.  This Agreement may not be amended except by
an instrument in writing signed by all of the parties hereto.

 

(b)           Notices.  All notices, requests, clauses, demands and
other communications under this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be
deemed given if delivered personally, telecopied (with confirmation) or sent by
overnight or same-day courier (providing proof of delivery):

 

if to Parent,
in accordance with Section 10.6 of the Merger Agreement; and

 

if to any
Stockholder, at the addresses set forth on Schedule A hereto (or at such other
address as shall be specified by like notice).

 

(c)           Interpretation.  When a reference is made in this Agreement
to a Section or a Schedule, such reference shall be to a Section of, or a
Schedule to, this Agreement unless otherwise indicated.  The headings contained in this Agreement are
for reference purposes only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or
interpretation of this Agreement. 
Whenever the words “include”, “includes” or “including” are used in this
Agreement, they shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation”.  The words “hereof”, “herein” and “hereunder”
and words of similar import when used in this Agreement shall refer to this
Agreement as a whole and not to any particular provision of this
Agreement.  The term “or” is not
exclusive.  The word “extent” in the
phrase “to the extent” shall mean the degree to which a subject or other thing
extends, and such phrase shall not mean simply “if”.  The definitions contained in this Agreement are applicable to the
singular as well as the plural forms of such terms.  References to a person are also to its permitted successors and
assigns.

 

(d)           Counterparts; Effectiveness.  This Agreement may be executed in one or
more counterparts, all of which shall be considered one and the same agreement
and shall become effective when one or more counterparts have been signed by
each of the parties hereto and delivered to the other party.  The effectiveness of this Agreement shall be
conditioned upon the execution and delivery of the Merger Agreement by each of
the parties thereto.

 

(e)           Entire Agreement; No Third-Party
Beneficiaries.  This Agreement
(including the documents and instruments referred to herein) (i) constitutes
the entire agreement and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings,
both written and oral, among the parties hereto with respect to the subject
matter of this Agreement and (ii) is not intended to confer upon any person
other than the parties hereto (and the persons specified as proxies in Section
4) any rights or remedies.

 

(f)            Governing Law.  THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND
CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE, WITHOUT REGARD
TO ITS PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICTS OF LAWS.

 

7

 

(g)           Severability.  If any term or other provision of this
Agreement is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any rule of Law
or public policy, all other conditions and provisions of this Agreement shall
nevertheless remain in full force and effect. 
Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid,
illegal or incapable of being enforced, the parties hereto shall negotiate in
good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the
parties as closely as possible to the fullest extent permitted by applicable
Law in an acceptable manner and to the end that the transactions contemplated
hereby are fulfilled to the extent possible.

 

(h)           Agreement Made Only in Capacity as
Stockholder.  No person executing
this Agreement who is or becomes during the term hereof a director, officer or
employee of the Company makes any agreement or understanding herein in his or
her capacity as such a director, officer or employee of the Company.  Each Stockholder signs solely in his, her or
its capacity as the record holder and beneficial owner of, or the trustee of a
trust whose beneficiaries are the beneficial owners of, the Subject Shares and
nothing herein shall require any action to be taken, or limit or affect any
actions taken, by a Stockholder in his or her capacity as an officer, director
or employee of the Company.

 

SECTION 10.         Enforcement; Jurisdiction.  The parties agree that irreparable damage
would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not
performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached.  It is accordingly agreed that the parties
shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this
Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this
Agreement in any court of the United States located in the State of Delaware or
in any Delaware state court, this being in addition to any other remedy to
which they are entitled at law or in equity. 
In addition, each of the parties hereto (a) consents to submit itself to
the personal jurisdiction of any court of the United States located in the
State of Delaware or of any Delaware state court in the event of any action,
suit or proceeding to enforce this Agreement, (b) agrees that it will not
attempt to deny or defeat such personal jurisdic­tion by motion or other
request for leave from any such court, (c) agrees that it will not bring any
action relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement in any court other than a court of the United States located in the
State of Delaware or a Delaware state court and (d) waives any right to trial
by jury with respect to any claim or proceeding related to or arising out of
this Agreement or any transaction contemplated by this Agreement.

 

SECTION 11.         Agent for Service of Process.  Parent and each Stockholder hereby appoints
The Corporation Trust Company, with offices on the date hereof at Corporation
Trust Center, 1209 Orange Street, Wilmington, Delaware 19801, as its authorized
agent (the “Authorized Agent”), upon whom process may be served in any
suit, action or proceeding to enforce this Agreement that may be instituted in
any court described in Section 10. 
Parent and each Stockholder agree to take any and all action, including
the filing of any and all documents, that may be necessary to establish and
continue such appointment in full force and effect as aforesaid.  Parent and each Stockholder agree that
service of process upon the Authorized Agent shall be, in every respect,
effective service of process upon Parent or such Stockholder, as the case may
be.

                        Amendment to Consultant Agreement

         Amendment to Consultant Agreement, made as of October 30, 2003 (this
"Amendment") between Consumers Financial Corp. having its principal place of
business located at 132 Spruce Street, Cedarhurst, NY 11516 (the "Corporation"),
and Pinchas Gold, a private corporate consultant, whose principal place of
business is located at 174 Broadway, Brooklyn, NY 11211 (the "Consultant").

         Whereas, the Corporation and the Consultant are parties to a Consultant
Agreement dated as of September 12, 2003 (the "Consulting Agreement";
capitalized terms used herein not otherwise defined herein shall have the
meanings ascribed to such terms in the Consulting Agreement) whereby the
Consultant was to provide services to the Corporation on the terms and
conditions contained therein;

         Whereas, the Corporation and the Consultant desire to amend the
Consulting Agreement on the terms provided herein.

         Now, therefore, in consideration of the premises and of the mutual
promises and covenants herein contained, the parties hereto agree as follows:

         1. Term. The Engagement Period shall be extended until January 31,
2004.

         2. Additional Compensation. In consideration for the services provided
by the Consultant, the Corporation shall issue to the Consultant 330,000 shares
of common stock of the Corporation. The Corporation shall use its best efforts
to register such shares pursuant to an S-8 registration statement as soon as
practical.

         3. Consulting Agreement. Except as otherwise provided herein, all the
terms and conditions of the Consulting Agreement shall remain in full force and
effect and be true and accurate as of the date hereof, including without
limitation, Section 2.3 thereof regarding the services of the Consultant.

         4. Reference. On and after the date hereof, each reference in the
Consulting Agreement to "this Agreement", "hereunder", "hereof", "herein" or
words of like import, and each reference to the Consulting Agreement in any
other agreement, document or other instrument, shall mean, and be a reference to
the Consulting Agreement, as amended by this Amendment.

         5. Counterparts. This Amendment may be executed in counterparts and by
facsimile, and all of said counterparts taken together shall be deemed to
constitute one and the same instrument.

         6. Captions. The captions used in this Amendment are intended for
convenience of reference only, shall not constitute any part of this Amendment
and shall not modify or affect in any manner the meaning or interpretation of
any of the provisions of this Amendment.

         7. Binding Effect. This Amendment shall be binding upon and inure to
the benefit of the respective heirs, executors, administrators, representatives
and the permitted successors and assigns of the parties hereto.

         8. Governing Law. This Amendment and the rights and obligations of the
parties under this Amendment shall be governed by and construed in accordance

<PAGE>

with the laws of the State of New York, without regard to conflict of laws rules
applied in such state.

         IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have executed the above
Amendment as of the day and year first above written:
