Section 4.        Certain Covenants of the Stockholder and the Company.

4.1                 Restriction on Transfer, Proxies and Non-Interference.  The Stockholder hereby agrees from and after the date hereof until the applicable date set forth below not to (a) sell, transfer, pledge, encumber, assign or otherwise dispose of, or enter into any contract, option or other arrangement or understanding other than this Agreement with respect to the sale, transfer, pledge, encumbrance, assignment or other disposition of, or limitation on the voting rights of, those 1,385,529 shares of Common Stock that the Stockholder acquired from Brookdale Global Opportunity Fund, a Cayman company, and Brookdale International Partners, L.P., a New York limited partnership and (collectively, the “Weiss Acquired Shares”), (b) grant any proxies or powers of attorney with respect to any Weiss Acquired Shares (other than as set forth in this Agreement), deposit any Weiss Acquired Shares into a voting trust or enter into a voting agreement with respect to any Weiss Acquired Shares (or attempt or purport to revoke or supersede the proxy granted to the Company hereunder), (c) take any action that reasonably could cause any representation or warranty of the Stockholder contained herein to become materially untrue or incorrect or have the effect of preventing or disabling the Stockholder from performing its covenants or other obligations under this Agreement or (d) commit or agree to take any of the foregoing actions. Any transfer of any Weiss Acquired Shares in violation of this provision shall be null and void. If any involuntary transfer of any Weiss Acquired Shares shall occur (including a sale by the Stockholder’s trustee in any bankruptcy, or a sale to a purchaser at any creditor’s or court sale), the transferee (which term, as used herein, shall include any and all transferees and subsequent transferees of the initial transferee) shall take and hold such Weiss Acquired Shares subject to all of the restrictions, liabilities and rights under this Agreement. The restrictions under this Section 4.1 shall continue in full force and effect until a Change of Control; provided, however, that (i) the Stockholder may, prior to the date of a Change of Control, sell, transfer, pledge, encumber, assign or otherwise dispose of the Weiss Acquired Shares in blocks of 5% or more of the then issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company to any party who agrees in writing with the Company to abide by and be bound by all of the of the terms, conditions, restrictions, rights and liabilities contained in this Agreement, and (ii) following the six month anniversary of this Agreement, the Stockholder may also sell, transfer, pledge, encumber, assign or otherwise dispose of the Weiss Acquired Shares in blocks of less than 5% of the then issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company, (A) in privately negotiated transactions where any transferee or pledgee of such shares will not following such disposition beneficially own more than 5% of the then issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company, and (B) in transactions on a nationally recognized exchange or a nationally recognized over-the-counter market (including, without limitation, the OTC Bulleting Board electronic quotation medium regulated by the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc., the OTCQX maintained by OTC Markets Group Inc., the OTCQB maintained by OTC Markets Group Inc. and any of their respective successors), so long as the Stockholder does not know that any acquirer of such shares following such transaction will be the beneficial owner of more than 5% of the then issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company; provided further however that in no event shall the restrictions in this Section 4.1 continue beyond December 31, 2012. In order to be able to enforce this Section 4.1, the Stockholder hereby consents to the certification of the Weiss Acquired Shares and the placing of a legend/and or stop-transfer order on such shares with the transfer agent of the Common Stock. For purposes of this Section 4.1, in determining the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock, the Stockholder may rely on the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock as reflected in (x) the Company’s most recent Form 10-Q or Form 10-K, as the case may be, (y) a more recent public announcement by the Company or (z) any other notice by the Company or the Company’s transfer agent setting forth the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding.

4.2                 Change of Control. For purposes of this Agreement, a “Change of Control” shall mean the occurrence of any one or more of the following events: 

(a)        A change in the composition of the Board such that the individuals who, as of the date hereof, other than any designee designated by Weiss Asset Management LP pursuant to that certain Support Agreement dated October 27, 2010, by and between the Company and Weiss Asset Management LP, and following the appointment of the Stockholder Designees, constitute the Board (such Board shall be hereinafter referred to as the “Incumbent Board”) cease for any reason to constitute at least a majority of the Board; provided, however, that, for purposes of this Section 4.2(a), any individual who becomes a member of the Board subsequent to the date hereof, whose election, or nomination for election by the Company’s stockholders, was approved by a vote of at least a majority of those individuals who are members of the Board and who were also members of the Incumbent Board (or deemed to be such pursuant to this proviso) shall be considered as though such individual were a member of the Incumbent Board; provided, further, that any such individual whose initial assumption of office occurs as a result of either an actual or threatened election contest (as such terms are used in Rule 14a-11 of Regulation 14A promulgated under the Exchange Act) or other actual or threatened solicitation of proxies or consents by or on behalf of a person or entity other than the Board shall not be so considered as a member of the Incumbent Board; or

(b)        The consummation of a reorganization, merger, share exchange or consolidation or sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company (a “Corporate Transaction”); excluding, however, such a Corporate Transaction pursuant to which (A) all or substantially all of the individuals and entities who are the beneficial owners, respectively, of the Company’s outstanding Company Common Stock immediately prior to such Corporate Transaction will beneficially own, directly or indirectly, more than 50% of the outstanding shares of common stock, and the combined voting power of the then-outstanding voting securities entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, as the case may be, of the corporation resulting from such Corporate Transaction (including, without limitation, a corporation that as a result of such transaction owns the Company or all or substantially all of the Company’s assets either directly or through one or more subsidiaries) in substantially the same proportions as their ownership, immediately prior to such Corporate Transaction, of the Company’s outstanding Common Stock or (B) individuals who were members of the Incumbent Board will constitute at least a majority of the members of the board of directors of the corporation resulting from such Corporate Transaction; or

(c)        The approval by stockholders of a complete liquidation or dissolution of the Company.

Section 5.        Miscellaneous.

5.1                 Public Announcements. The Company agrees to issue a press release announcing the Company’s entry into this Agreement and/or file a Form 8-K with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Public Statement”), which Public Statement must be reasonably satisfactory to the Stockholder. None of the parties hereto shall (i) make any public statements regarding the Annual Meeting or the terms and provisions of this Agreement (including in any filing with the SEC or any other regulatory or governmental agency, including any stock exchange) that are inconsistent with, or otherwise contrary to, the statements in the Public Statement or (ii) make any public statement (including any statement in any filing with the SEC or any other governmental agency) that is critical of or disparages this Agreement, any of the parties hereto, or any actions taken prior to the date hereof by any of the parties hereto in connection with the Annual Meeting; provided, however, that the parties hereto may make such statements either required by applicable law, rule or regulation (including any statement required by any filing with the SEC or any other governmental agency) or required in order to comply with the party’s fiduciary duties to the Company or its stockholders, or the party’s investors or clients (as applicable), in each case as reasonably determined by the party seeking to make the statement at issue, based on the advice of counsel and upon reasonable prior written notice to the other parties hereto of the nature of the statement and the reasons it is required to be made, to the extent practicable under the circumstances.

5.2                Additional Shares. The Stockholder shall promptly notify the Company of the number of shares of Common Stock, if any, as to which the Stockholder acquires record or beneficial ownership after the date hereof until the conclusion of the Annual Meeting; provided that in no event will the Stockholder have an obligation to provide notice to the Company under this Section 5.2 after the End Date. Any shares of Common Stock as to which the Stockholder acquires record or beneficial ownership after the date hereof shall be Owned Shares for purposes of this Agreement. Without limiting the foregoing, in the event of any stock split, stock dividend or other change in the capital structure of the Company affecting the Common Stock, the number of shares of Common Stock constituting Owned Shares shall be adjusted appropriately and this Agreement and the obligations hereunder shall attach to any additional shares of Common Stock or other voting securities of the Company issued to the Stockholder in connection therewith.

5.3                Definition of “Beneficial Ownership.” For purposes of this Agreement, “beneficial ownership” with respect to (or to “beneficially own”) any securities shall mean having “beneficial ownership” of such securities as determined pursuant to Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act, including pursuant to any agreement, arrangement or understanding, whether or not in writing.

5.4                Expenses. All costs and expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement and the obligations of the parties hereunder shall be paid by the party incurring such costs and expenses.

5.5                Specific Performance. The Stockholder, on the one hand, and the Company, on the other hand, acknowledge and agree that irreparable injury to the other party hereto would occur in the event any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached and that such injury would not be adequately compensable in damages. It is accordingly agreed that the Stockholder, on the one hand, and the Company, on the other hand (the “Moving Party”), shall each be entitled to specific enforcement of, and injunctive relief to prevent any violation of, the terms hereof and the other party hereto will not take action, directly or indirectly, in opposition to the Moving Party seeking such relief on the grounds that any other remedy or relief is available at law or in equity, nor shall such other party seek the posting of a bond as a condition for obtaining any such relief. An application for specific performance pursuant to this Section 5.5 shall not preclude the Moving Party from seeking other relief available at law or in equity.

5.6                No Waiver. Any waiver by either the Stockholder or the Company of a breach of any provision of this Agreement shall not operate as or be construed to be a waiver of any other breach of such provision or of any breach of any other provision of this Agreement. The failure of either party to insist upon strict adherence to any term of this Agreement on one or more occasions shall not be considered a waiver or deprive that party of the right thereafter to insist upon strict adherence to that term or any other term of this Agreement. Any waiver of any provision of this Agreement must be signed by the party against whom enforcement of such waiver is sought.

5.7                Successors and Assigns. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations hereunder shall be assigned by any of the parties hereto (whether by operation of law or otherwise) without the prior written consent of the other parties. Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns. Any purported assignment not permitted under this Section 5.7 shall be null and void.

5.8                Survival of Representations. All representations and warranties made by the parties in this Agreement or pursuant hereto shall survive the execution of this Agreement.

5.9                Entire Agreement; Amendments. This Agreement, including the exhibits hereto, contains the entire understanding of the parties hereto with respect to its subject matter. There are no restrictions, agreements, promises, representations, warranties, covenants or undertakings other than those expressly set forth herein. This Agreement may not be modified, amended, altered or supplemented except upon the execution and delivery of a written agreement executed by all of the parties hereto.

5.10                Severability. The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision hereof in any jurisdiction will not affect the validity or enforceability of the remainder hereof in that jurisdiction or the validity or enforceability of this Agreement, including that provision, in any other jurisdiction. To the extent permitted by applicable law, each party waives any provision of applicable law that renders any provision hereof prohibited or unenforceable in any respect. If any provision of this Agreement is held to be unenforceable for any reason, it will be adjusted rather than voided, if possible, in order to achieve the intent of the parties to the extent possible.

5.11                Notices. Any notice or other communication required or permitted to be given under this Agreement will be sufficient if it is in writing, sent to the applicable address set forth below (or as otherwise specified by a party by notice to the other parties in accordance with this Section 5.11) and delivered personally or sent by recognized overnight courier, postage prepaid, and will be deemed given (a) when so delivered personally, (b) if sent by recognized overnight courier, one day after the date of sending, or (c) if delivered by electronic mail transmission.

This Agreement shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of New York without reference to the conflict of laws principles thereof. The parties hereto agree to submit to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of any court of competent jurisdiction located in the State of New York to resolve any dispute relating to this Agreement and waive any right to move to dismiss or transfer any such action brought in any such court on the basis of any objection to personal jurisdiction or venue.

5.13                Headings. The section headings contained in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.

5.14                Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same Agreement.

5.15                No Admission. Nothing contained herein shall constitute an admission by any party hereto of liability or wrongdoing.

5.16                Further Action. Each party agrees to, without further consideration, execute and deliver such additional documents, and take all such further action as may be reasonably required to effectuate or further evidence the terms and provisions of this Agreement.
