Capitalized terms used in and not otherwise defined in this letter shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Purchase Agreement. In connection with and effective upon the closing of the Consolidation to be effected today pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, STAC, the Company and the Purchasers agree as follows: 1. STAC has not and will not satisfy the covenants set forth in Section 4.21(b) of the Purchase Agreement to have minimum EBITDA for the fourth quarter of 2005 and fiscal year 2005 of $1,725,000 and $5,200,000 and therefore, the minimum EBITDA for the fourth quarter shall be $650,000 and for fiscal year 2005 shall be $4,350,000. Further, following the closing of the Consolidation, the financial covenants under Section 4.21 will be of no further force and effect. 2.

The use of proceeds from the Investment will be to repurchase approximately an equal amount of shares owned by Scott Hirsch or his affiliates as required in the Consolidation. The Required Purchasers hereby consent to the Investment upon the terms and conditions described herein with such immaterial changes and revisions as the officer executing the same shall determine, PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that there shall be no change in the number of shares or price of the Investment. The Required Purchasers also waive compliance with the provisions of Section 4.15, "Participation in Future Financing," and Section 4.16, "Subsequent Equity Sales" solely with respect to the Investment. 4. In addition, for the absence of doubt and for the purpose of satisfaction of any covenants, conditions, or restrictions in or relating to the Purchase Agreement, or applicable to the Company or STAC, as now in effect or as may hereafter be modified or amended, the amount of any non-cash charges associated with the Investment shall be included (added back) in any calculations of such amounts. 5. (a) In consideration of the Purchasers (i) forbearing to call a covenant default or breach of Section 4.21(b) of the Purchase Agreement, (ii) agreeing to amend Schedules 4.22(a), (b) and (c) of the Purchase Agreement and (iii) consenting to the Investment and waiving the provisions of Sections 4.15 and 4.16, the Company shall issue 525,000 shares (the "Shares") of its common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the "Common Stock"), pro rata to the Purchasers in accordance with their respective ownership of the principal amounts of the STAC Debentures, at the closing of the Consolidation being effected today, as set forth next to their name on the signature page hereto. (b) Certificates for the Shares, duly registered in the names of the Purchasers and containing the necessary restrictive legends, shall be delivered to Morrison & Foerster LLP by the close of business on the Consolidation Date for delivery to the respective Purchasers. (c) The Shares shall be included in the "Registrable Securities" as defined in and pursuant to the Company Registration Rights Agreement, the form of which is attached as Exhibit D to the Purchase Agreement, and the final version of which shall be executed and delivered in connection with the closing of the Consolidation. 6. Except as specifically set forth in this letter agreement, the covenants, terms and provisions of the Purchase Agreement and the other Transaction Documents remain in full force and effect and the Purchasers have not waived, or agreed to the amendment of, any other provisions thereof. In no event shall this letter, any other action undertaken pursuant to the Purchase Agreement or the other Transaction Documents, or any inaction by Agent or the Purchasers constitute (i) a waiver, estoppel or agreement to forbear (except as specifically set forth herein) with respect to Agent's and the Purchasers'  rights, defenses, remedies, or privileges at law or in equity under the Purchase Agreement, the other Transaction Documents or otherwise; or (ii) a waiver of any Default or Event of Default under the STAC Debentures. No delay by Agent or the Purchaser in exercising any of their respective rights or remedies shall operate as a waiver of any rights or remedies that Agent or the Purchasers may have.
