The Corporation shall provide the BTO Stockholders with a reasonable opportunity to review and provide comments on any portion of the proxy materials relating to the

-5-

With respect to any nominees of the BTO Stockholders, the BTO Stockholders shall use their respective reasonable best efforts to ensure that any such nominee(s) substantially satisfy all reasonable stated criteria and guidelines for director nominees of the Corporation (it being understood and agreed that each of the initial directors nominated by the BTO Stockholders meet such criteria) and be in compliance with applicable federal securities laws and the extent of any changes in applicable stock exchange requirements made effective after the date hereof on which the Corporation’s Common Stock may then be listed.

(i) General. The BTO Stockholders and any other BTO Entity desiring to accept the offer contained in the Participation Notice (the “Accepting Participation Holders”) shall accept such offer by furnishing a written notice of such acceptance to the Corporation not less than ten (10) Business Days prior to the Participation Closing specifying the number or aggregate principal amount of Participation Securities (not to exceed, in the aggregate with respect to all Accepting Participation Holders, the BTO Participation Portion of the total number of Participation Securities to be included in the Post-Closing Issuance) that the Accepting Participation Holders propose to purchase. Each BTO Stockholder that does not accept such offer in compliance with the above requirements, including the applicable time periods, shall be deemed to have irrevocably waived all of such BTO Stockholder’s rights to participate in such Post-Closing Issuance, and the Corporation shall thereafter be free to issue Participation Securities in such Post-Closing Issuance (including to any Accepting Participation Holders) at a price no less than the minimum price set forth in the Participation Notice and on other principal terms and conditions not substantially more favorable to the purchaser(s) of such Participation Securities than those set forth in the Participation Notice, without any further obligation to such non-accepting BTO Stockholder pursuant to this Section 6.

The acceptance of the Accepting Participation Holders shall be irrevocable except as hereinafter provided and the Accepting Participation Holders shall be bound and obligated to acquire in the Post-Closing Issuance on the same terms and conditions and at the same price per share with respect to the Participation Securities such number or aggregate principal amount of Participation Securities as shall be determined in accordance with Section 6(b)(iii) below.

(iii) Number of Participation Securities to be Purchased.

(b) The parties to this Agreement agree that jurisdiction and venue in any action brought by any party hereto pursuant to this Agreement shall exclusively and properly lie in the Delaware Court of Chancery or, only in the event that such court declines jurisdiction, the federal courts located in the State of Delaware. By execution and delivery of this Agreement, each party hereto irrevocably submits to the jurisdiction of such courts for itself and in respect of its property with respect to such action. The parties hereto irrevocably agree that venue for such action would be proper in such court and hereby waive any objection that such court is an improper or inconvenient forum for the resolution of such action. The parties further agree that the mailing by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, of any process required by any such court shall constitute valid and lawful service of process against them, without necessity for service by any other means provided by statute or rule of court.

Section 10 JURY TRIAL.

BECAUSE DISPUTES ARISING IN CONNECTION WITH COMPLEX FINANCIAL TRANSACTIONS ARE MOST QUICKLY AND ECONOMICALLY RESOLVED BY AN EXPERIENCED AND EXPERT PERSON AND THE PARTIES WISH APPLICABLE STATE AND FEDERAL LAWS TO APPLY (RATHER THAN ARBITRATION RULES), THE PARTIES DESIRE THAT THEIR DISPUTES BE RESOLVED BY A JUDGE APPLYING SUCH APPLICABLE LAWS. THEREFORE, TO ACHIEVE THE BEST COMBINATION OF THE BENEFITS OF THE JUDICIAL SYSTEM AND/OR ARBITRATION, THE PARTIES HERETO WAIVE ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, SUIT OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT TO ENFORCE OR DEFEND ANY RIGHT OR REMEDIES UNDER THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY DOCUMENTS ENTERED INTO IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT AND THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREIN.

Section 12 Benefits of Agreement.

This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Corporation and its successors and assigns and each Stockholder and its permitted assigns, legal representatives, heirs and beneficiaries.

This Agreement may be amended, modified or supplemented only by a written instrument duly executed by (a) the Corporation, (b) the BTO Stockholders and (c) Founder Stockholders representing a majority of the Common Stock owned by the Founder Stockholders. No course of dealing between the Corporation or its Subsidiaries and the BTO Stockholders and Founder Stockholders (or any of them) or any delay in exercising any rights hereunder will operate as a waiver of any rights of any party to this Agreement. The failure of any party to enforce any of the provisions of this Agreement will in no way be construed as a waiver of such provisions and will not affect the right of such party thereafter to enforce each and every provision of this Agreement in accordance with its terms.

Section 16 Counterparts.

This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts (including facsimile, electronic signature or PDF counterparts), and each such counterpart shall be deemed to be an original instrument, but all such counterparts taken together shall constitute but one agreement. The failure of any Stockholder to execute this Agreement does not make it invalid as against any other Stockholder.

Section 17 Director and Officer Actions.

No director or officer of the Corporation shall be personally liable to the Corporation or any of its stockholders as a result of any acts or omissions taken under this Agreement in good faith.
