*Deemed executed by the signature of the Company that appears at the end of this Agreement.
Notwithstanding the period specified in the Note for the giving of an Optional Redemption Notice,
the Purchaser agrees to accept the foregoing Optional Redemption Notice. Solely for purposes of
permitting the Company to give the foregoing Optional Redemption Notice, and not for purposes of
otherwise relieving the Company of its obligation to comply, or the Purchaser’s rights under, the
following provisions of the Note, the Purchaser hereby also waives the following additional
requirements related to such redemption:
(1) Section 2(c)(1)(C) of the Note regarding the availability of the Registration Statement for use
by the Purchaser;
(2) Section 2(c)(1)(G) regarding the absence of a Maximum Share Amount Deficiency; and
(3) Section (3)(o)(2) of the Note as to reporting the Share Redemption completed on December 1,
2005 so long as the Company reports the information specified in such Section 3(o)(2) in the
Current Report on Form 8-K filed by the Company as required by Section 6.3.
(b) The cash portion of the Optional Redemption Consideration for such redemption shall be
paid by release of cash Collateral from the lien and security interest of the Security Agreement
pursuant to Section 15(e) thereof. The Purchaser hereby consents to such release of Collateral
pursuant to Section 15(e) of the Security Agreement.
2.2 Concerning the Warrant. For purposes of Section 8(f) of the Warrant, the redemption of the
Note provided for in Section 2.1 of this Agreement shall be treated as a Share Redemption but in
lieu of the number of shares of Common Stock determined under Section 8(f) of the Warrant that
would be repriced by reason thereof, the Purchase Price under and as defined in the Warrant shall
be reduced to $1.44 for 119,273 shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrant.
2.3 Concerning the Purchase Agreement and the Security Agreement. On November 23, 2005 the Company

Purchaser agree as follows:
-3-
Table of Contents
(a) The Company shall seek, and use its best efforts to obtain, the Stockholder Approval by
May 1, 2006, rather than by the date that is 60 days after the Maximum Share Amount Notice Date for
such Maximum Share Amount Notice.
(b) The Purchaser’s right to require redemption of the Note during the 30-day period otherwise
provided for in Section 6.16(b)(2) of the Purchase Agreement in respect of such Maximum Share
Amount Notice shall be tolled until the earlier of (1) May 1, 2006 and (2) the date on which the
Stockholder Meeting is held (the “Redemption Right Date”), with the result that the Purchaser’s
right to require redemption of the Note pursuant to Section 6.16(b)(3) of the Purchase Agreement
shall be a right to require such redemption whether or not the Company obtains Stockholder
Approval, and such right may be exercised commencing on the Redemption Right Date.
(c) Notwithstanding Section 15(c)(6) of the Security Agreement, upon the later of (x) December
30, 2005 and (y) the date on which the Company has by Share Redemption or cash redemption reduced
the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Notes to $10,000,000 or less, the Company shall
be entitled to release of all cash Collateral in excess of $7,936,405.20 upon the Company’s request
therefor in accordance with Section 15(c) of the Security Agreement and satisfaction of the other
requirements of Section 15(c) of the Security Agreement. Thereafter, until such time as no Maximum
Share Amount Deficiency exists, if the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Notes is
reduced below $10,000,000 the Company shall be entitled, upon its request and the satisfaction of
the requirements of Section 15(c) of the Security Agreement other than Section 15(c)(6) of the
Security Agreement, to release of cash Collateral in excess of the lesser of (x) $7,936,405.20 and
(y) the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Notes. If no Maximum Share Amount Deficiency
exists, then the provisions of Section 15(c) of the Security Agreement, without regard to the
foregoing provisions of this Section 2.3(c), shall once again be in effect.
(d) Notwithstanding Section 15(c)(6) of the Security Agreement, until the earlier of (x) the
date no Maximum Share Amount Deficiency exists and (y) April 30, 2006, the Company shall be
entitled, upon its request and the satisfaction of the requirements of Section 15(c) of the
Security Agreement other than Section 15(c)(6) of the Security Agreement, to release of cash
Collateral equal to the funds held in the Collateral Account attributable to interest on the cash
Collateral otherwise required to be maintained and held pursuant to the Security Agreement. If no
Maximum Share Amount Deficiency exists, then the Company’s right to release of cash Collateral
consisting of interest earned on the cash Collateral in the Collateral Account shall revert to the
provisions of Section 15(c) of the Security Agreement, without regard to this Section 2.3(d).
(e) Notwithstanding Section 6.16(a) of the Purchase Agreement, the Purchaser agrees that, of
the portion of the Maximum Share Amount otherwise allocated to the Purchaser, 137,188 shares of
Common Stock included therein shall instead be allocated to the holder of the Other Note to be used
by the Company to make a Share Redemption of the Other Note contemporaneously with the Effective
Time.
(f) The Company represents and warrants that Xxxxxx & Xxxxxxx has amended its agreement with
the Company such that the portion of the Maximum Share Amount
