ITEM 6. CONTRACTS, ARRANGEMENTS, UNDERSTANDINGS OR RELATIONSHIPS WITH RESPECT TO SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER

Commitment Agreement

On February 23, 2004, the Company entered into a Commitment Agreement with the Subscribers, including the Reporting Persons. Under the terms of the Commitment Agreement, each of the holders of the Company's Senior Subordinated Notes party to the Commitment Agreement severally agreed to purchase its ratable share of 8,000,000 shares of the Convertible Preferred Stock, and certain of such holders, along with certain third party accredited investors party to the Commitment Agreement, severally agreed to purchase specified amounts of shares of the Convertible Preferred Stock that were not subscribed for in the rights offering, all subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain conditions contained in the Commitment Agreement. On June 29, 2004, the Company and the Subscribers entered into an amendment to the Commitment Agreement under which certain of the Subscribers agreed to purchase an aggregate of 500,000 additional shares of Convertible Preferred Stock at $10 per share for a total purchase price of $5 million. The additional 500,000 shares were allocated among such holders of Senior Subordinated Notes and such third party accredited investors in proportion to their respective standby commitments under the Commitment Agreement in respect of the rights offering. On January 25, 2005, the Company concluded the rights offering of 5,139,200 shares of Convertible Preferred Stock at a purchase price of $10 per share. As a result, on the Effective Date, the aggregate of 3,360,800 shares of Convertible Preferred Stock were purchased by the Subscribers pursuant to the Commitment Agreement.

Registration Rights Agreement

On the Effective Date, the Company and the Subscribers, including the Reporting Persons, entered into a Registration Rights Agreement (the "Registration Rights Agreement"), granting a demand registration right to enable the Subscribers to resell, pursuant to a registration statement the total of 3,360,800 shares of Convertible Preferred Stock purchased pursuant to the Commitment Agreement, and the 3,360,800 shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Convertible Preferred Stock. The preliminary registration statement was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on January 27, 2005. Once it becomes effective, the Company is required to keep the registration statement effective until the earliest of (1) two years after the effective date of that registration statement, (2) the date when all of the shares covered by the registration statement have been sold pursuant to the registration statement and (3) the date on which the shares covered by the registration statement may be resold by such holders pursuant to Rule 144(k) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The registration right is subject to various customary conditions as set forth in the Registration Rights Agreement. Pursuant to the terms of the Registration Rights Agreement, the Company will pay all fees and expenses related to the registration of such shares pursuant to the registration statement (excluding those of counsel or other advisors to the selling shareholders and any underwriting discounts and fees and brokerage and sales commissions, which will be paid by the selling shareholders). Under the Registration Rights Agreement, if the registration statement has not been declared effective by the SEC on or before the 90th day after the Effective Date of the Plan (a "registration default"), the Company has agreed to pay liquidated damages to each holder of a share of Convertible Preferred Stock purchased pursuant to the Commitment Agreement for each day that the registration default continues at the annual rate of $0.30 per share.

           The description of the Commitment Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement and the rights of the Reporting Persons thereunder is not intended to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to such agreements which are annexed hereto as Exhibits 3 and 4, respectively, all of which are incorporated herein by reference.
