Without limiting the foregoing, when a Person (such as a broker, dealer, bank, trust company or clearing corporation or an agent of any of the foregoing) is acting as nominee, agent or in some other representative capacity for another Person in acquiring and/or holding Shares, as between the Company on the one hand, and such other Persons on the other, such representative Person shall be the Record Holder of such Shares.

If Stockholder acquires Beneficial Ownership of any outstanding shares of Company Common Stock after the date hereof and prior to the termination of this Agreement, whether upon the exercise of options, warrants or rights, the conversion or exchange of convertible or exchangeable securities, or by means of purchase, dividend, distribution or otherwise (together with the Existing Shares, the “Shares”), Stockholder shall validly tender such Shares or cause such Shares to be tendered to Purchaser pursuant to and in accordance with the Offer, not later than the fifth business day after commencement of the Offer pursuant to Article 1 of the Purchase and Sale Agreement and Rule 14d-2 of the Exchange Act or, if acquired later than such time, on or before the fifth business day after such acquisition, but in any event prior to the expiration date of the Offer, and not withdraw such Shares, or cause such Shares to be withdrawn, from the Offer at any time (except in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement). Stockholder shall not withdraw any Shares so tendered unless this Agreement is terminated or otherwise terminates in accordance with its terms under Section 7 hereof or the Offer is terminated or has expired without Purchaser purchasing all shares of Company Common Stock validly tendered in the Offer and not withdrawn. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Stockholder may decline to tender, or may withdraw, any and all of Stockholder’s Shares if, without the consent of Stockholder, Purchaser amends the Offer to (i) reduce the Offer Price for the Shares in the Offer, (ii) reduce the number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to the Offer, (iii) change the form of consideration payable in the Offer, (iv) change the “Minimum Condition,” which requires the tender of 35% of the fully diluted shares of Company Common Stock, or (v) amend or modify any term or condition of the Offer in a manner adverse to Stockholder (other than insignificant changes or amendments or other than to waive any condition other than the Minimum Condition which the parties agree cannot be waived or reduced) (clauses (i) through (v) collectively are hereinafter referred to as a “Material Amendment”).
