3. Covenants, Representations and Warranties of Stockholder.
--------------------------------------------------------
Stockholder hereby represents and warrants to and agrees with the Company as
follows:
(a) Ownership of Company Shares. Stockholder is the record and
---------------------------
beneficial owner of the Company Shares set forth on the signature page hereto.
On the date hereof, Stockholder's Company Shares constitute all of the capital
stock of Company that Stockholder has the right to vote with respect to the
transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement and with respect to the
adoption of the Plan and Amendment of Certificate. Stockholder has sole voting
power and sole power to issue instructions with respect to the matters set forth
in Section 2 hereof, sole power of disposition, sole power of conversion, sole
power to demand dissenter's rights and sole power to agree to all of the matters
set forth in this Agreement, in each case with respect to all of Stockholder's
Company Shares, with no limitations, qualifications or restrictions on such
rights, subject to applicable securities laws and the terms of this Agreement.
(b) Power; Binding Agreement. Stockholder has the legal capacity, power
------------------------
and authority to enter into and perform all of its obligations under this
Agreement. The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by
Stockholder will not violate any other agreement to which the Stockholder is a
party including, without limitation, any voting agreement, proxy arrangement,
pledge agreement, shareholders' agreement or voting trust. This Agreement has
been duly and validly executed and delivered by Stockholder and constitutes a
valid and binding agreement of Stockholder, enforceable against Stockholder in
accordance with its terms. There is no beneficiary or holder of a voting trust
certificate or other interest of any trust of which Stockholder is a trustee
whose consent is required for the execution and delivery of this Agreement or
the consummation by Stockholder of the transactions contemplated hereby.
(c) No Conflicts. None of the execution and delivery of this Agreement
------------
by Stockholder, the consummation by Stockholder of the actions contemplated
hereby or compliance by Stockholder with any of the provisions hereof will (i)
conflict with or result in any breach of any applicable organizational documents
applicable to Stockholder, (ii) result in a violation or breach of, or
constitute (with or without notice or lapse of time or both) a default (or give
rise to any third party right of termination, cancellation, modification or
acceleration (herein collectively, a "Default")) under any of the terms,
conditions or provisions of any note, loan agreement, bond, mortgage, indenture,
license, contract, commitment, arrangement, understanding, agreement or other
instrument or obligation of any kind to which Stockholder is a party or by which
Stockholder or any of its properties or assets may be bound, (iii) violate any
order, writ, injunction, decree, judgment, order, statute, rule or regulation
applicable to Stockholder or any of its properties or assets or (iv) require any
filing with, authorization, consent or approval of (herein collectively, a
"Consent"), any state or federal authority; which Default or violation or the
failure to obtain any Consent, in the case of clauses (ii), (iii) and (iv)
above, would have a material adverse effect on the ability of Stockholder to
perform Stockholder's obligations hereunder.
(d) No Voting Agreements. Except as permitted by this Agreement, the
--------------------
Company Shares of Stockholder and the certificates representing such Company
Shares are now, and at all
2
<PAGE>
times during the term hereof will be, held by Stockholder, or by a nominee or
custodian for the benefit of Stockholder, free and clear of all proxies, voting
trusts or agreements, understandings or arrangements or any other encumbrances
limiting or granting to any other person the right to vote the Company Shares,
except for any such encumbrances or proxies arising hereunder.
(e) No Solicitation. Stockholder shall not, directly or indirectly,
---------------
solicit (including by way of furnishing information), initiate, facilitate or
respond to any inquiries or the making of any proposal or offer by any Person
(other than the Company or any affiliate of the Company) concerning any merger,
consolidation, business combination, tender offer, exchange offer, sale of
assets, sale of Company Shares or capital stock or debt securities or similar
transactions involving Company (or any subsidiary, division or operating or
principal business unit of Company), or enter into any agreement, arrangement
or understanding with respect to such a transaction. Stockholder further agrees
that, if Stockholder receives any such inquiry or proposal, then Stockholder
shall promptly inform the Company of the existence thereof and the nature of
the inquiry or terms of the proposal, in each case in reasonable detail; and
Stockholder will immediately cease (and will ensure that his or her
Representatives cease) and cause to be terminated any existing activities,
discussions or negotiations with any parties conducted heretofore with respect
to any of the foregoing.
(f) Non-Interference. Stockholder shall not, directly or indirectly,
----------------
take any action that would make any representation or warranty of Stockholder
contained herein untrue or incorrect or have the effect of preventing or
disabling Stockholder from performing its obligations under this Agreement.
(g) Reliance by the Company. Stockholder understands and acknowledges
-----------------------
that the Company is entering into the Merger Agreement upon Stockholder's
execution and delivery of this Agreement.
(h) Waiver of Appraisal Rights. Stockholder hereby irrevocably and
--------------------------
unconditionally waives, and agrees to cause to be waived and to prevent the
exercise of, any rights of appraisal, any dissenter's rights and any similar
rights relating to the Merger or any related transaction that Stockholder or
any other Person may have by virtue of Stockholder's beneficial or record
ownership of any shares of Company capital stock.

authority to enter into and perform all of its obligations under this
Agreement. The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by the

constitutes a valid and binding agreement of the Company, enforceable against
the Company in accordance with its terms.
(b) No Conflicts. None of the execution and delivery of this Agreement
------------
by the Company, the consummation by the Company of the transactions
contemplated hereby or compliance by the Company with any of the provisions
hereof shall (i) conflict with or result in any breach of any applicable
organizational documents applicable to the Company, (ii) result in a violation
or breach of, or constitute (with or without notice or lapse of time or both) a
default (or give rise to any third party right of termination, cancellation,
material modification or
3
<PAGE>
acceleration) under any of the terms, conditions or provisions of any note,
loan agreement, bond, mortgage, indenture, license, contract, commitment,
arrangement, understanding, agreement or other instrument or obligation of any
kind to which the Company is a party or by which the Company or any of its
properties or assets may be bound, (iii) violate any order, writ, injunction,
decree, judgment, order, statute, rule or regulation applicable to the Company
or any of its properties or assets or (iv) require any filing with,
authorization, consent or approval of, any state or federal authority, except
as set forth in the Merger Agreement.

necessary or desirable to consummate and make effective, in the most
expeditious manner practicable, the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement.
6. Stop Transfer. Stockholder agrees that it shall not request that

Company.

that Stockholder shall not, and Stockholder shall use its best efforts to cause
its Representatives not to, disclose or discuss such matters with anyone not a
party to this Agreement (other than Stockholder's Representatives, if any)
without the prior written consent of the Company, except for disclosures which
Stockholder's counsel advises are necessary in order to fulfill Stockholder's
