The undersigned waive the Companys obligations arising from those portions of the provisions of Section 7 (e) of the Agreement which require the Company to make payments, as liquidated damages, to the Holders as a result of the Companys failure to file the Registration Statement on or prior to the Filing Date. The undersigned do not waive the Companys obligations, also set forth in Section 7(e) of the Agreement, to make payments, as liquidated damages, to the Holders if the Registration Statement is not declared effective by the Commission on or prior to the Effectiveness Date (as modified in Section 2 below).
