to vote upon the election of members of the Board of Directors of the Company (a “Board Election”)
or at any adjournment or postponement thereof and in any other circumstances in which a vote,

Roland E. Casati; and |
| |
| |
• |

with Section 2.1 hereof and, in the discretion of the Grantees, with respect to any proposed
postponements or adjournments of any annual
or special meeting of the stockholders of the Company at which a Board Election is to be
considered. This proxy shall be irrevocable during the term of this Agreement and shall be deemed
to be coupled with an interest sufficient in law to support an irrevocable proxy. The power of
attorney granted by the Stockholder hereby is a durable power of attorney and shall survive the
bankruptcy or dissolution of the Stockholder. The proxy and power of attorney granted hereby shall

remains in effect, a proxy (except pursuant to Section 2.2 hereof), consent or power of attorney
with respect to the Covered Shares and (c) has not taken and shall not knowingly take any action
that would make any representation or warranty of the Stockholder contained herein untrue or
incorrect or have the effect of preventing or disabling the Stockholder from performing any of its
obligations under this Agreement.
ARTICLE III
REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES
3.1. Representations and Warranties of the Stockholder. The Stockholder hereby
represents and warrants to the Gregorys as follows:
(a) Organization; Authorization; Validity of Agreement; Necessary Action. The
Stockholder, if a person other than an individual, is duly organized and is validly existing and in
good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation or organization. The
Stockholder has the requisite power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement, to carry
out its obligations hereunder and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby. The
execution and delivery by the Stockholder of this Agreement, the performance by it of its
obligations hereunder and the consummation by it of the transactions contemplated hereby have been
duly and validly authorized by the Stockholder, and no other actions or proceedings on the part of
such Stockholder or any stockholder thereof are necessary to authorize the execution and delivery
by it of this Agreement, the performance by it of its obligations hereunder or the consummation by
it of the transactions contemplated hereby. This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by
the Stockholder and, assuming this Agreement constitutes a valid and binding obligation of the
Gregorys, constitutes a legal, valid and binding agreement of the Stockholder, enforceable against
it in accordance with its terms, subject to bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer,
reorganization, moratorium and similar laws of general applicability relating to or affecting
creditors’ rights and to general equitable principles.
(b) Ownership. The Stockholder’s Existing Shares are, and all of the Covered Shares
owned by the Stockholder from the date hereof through the termination of this Agreement will be,
Beneficially Owned and owned of record by the Stockholder, except to the extent such Covered Shares
are Transferred after the date hereof pursuant to a Permitted Transfer or constitute any warrants,
options, conversion rights or similar rights with respect to Common Stock (collectively,
“Specified Rights”) that expire after the date hereof. The Stockholder has good and
marketable title to the Stockholder’s Existing Shares, free and clear of all liens, claims,
security interests, proxies, voting
4
trusts or agreements, understandings or arrangements or any other encumbrances whatsoever,
except for any such encumbrances or proxies arising hereunder, (collectively, “Liens”). As
of the date hereof, the Stockholder’s Existing Shares constitute all of the shares of Common Stock
Beneficially Owned or owned of record by the Stockholder. There are no agreements or arrangements
of any kind, contingent or otherwise, obligating the Stockholder to Transfer, or cause to be
Transferred, any Covered Shares, and no Person has any contractual or other right or obligation to
purchase or otherwise acquire any Covered Shares, other than, in each case, pursuant to a Permitted
Transfer. Except to the extent Covered Shares are Transferred after the date hereof pursuant to a
Permitted Transfer or constitute Specified Rights that expire after the date hereof or except as
set forth below the Stockholder’s name on the signature page hereof, the Stockholder has and will
have at all times through the termination of this Agreement sole voting power (including the right
to control such vote as contemplated herein), sole power of disposition, sole power to issue
instructions with respect to the matters set forth in Article II hereof, and sole power to agree to
all of the matters set forth in this Agreement, in each case with respect to all of the
Stockholder’s Existing Shares and with respect to all of the Covered Shares owned by the
Stockholder at all times through the termination of this Agreement (subject, in the case of Covered
Shares underlying Specified Rights acquired after the date hereof, to the terms of such Specified
Rights).
(c) No Violation. Neither the execution and delivery of this Agreement by the
Stockholder, the performance by the Stockholder of its obligations under this Agreement, nor the
consummation by the Stockholder of the transactions contemplated hereby nor compliance by the
Stockholder with any of the provisions herein will (A) result in a violation or breach of or
conflict with the governing documents of the Stockholder, as applicable, (B) result in a violation
or breach of or conflict with any provisions of, or constitute a default (or an event which, with
notice or lapse of time or both, would constitute a default) under, or result in the termination,
cancellation of, or give rise to a right of purchase under, or accelerate the performance required
by, or result in a right of termination or acceleration under, or result in the creation of any
Lien upon any of the properties, rights or assets owned or operated by the Stockholder under, or
result in being declared void, voidable, or without further binding effect, any note, bond,
mortgage, indenture, deed of trust, license, contract, lease, agreement or other instrument or
obligation of any kind to which the Stockholder is a party or by which the Stockholder or any of
its properties, rights or assets may be bound or (C) violate any judgments, orders, decrees,
injunctions, rulings, consents, awards, settlements or stipulations or statutes, laws, rules or
regulations applicable to the Stockholder or any of its properties, rights or assets, except for
any of the foregoing as would not reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to
impair the ability of the Stockholder to perform its obligations hereunder or to consummate the
transactions contemplated hereby on a timely basis. If the Stockholder is married and any of the
Stockholder’s Existing Shares constitute community property, this Agreement has been duly executed
and delivered by, and constitutes a valid and binding agreement of, the Stockholder’s spouse,
enforceable against such person in accordance with its terms. If any of the Stockholder’s Existing
Shares are held by a trust, no consent of any beneficiary is required for the execution and
delivery of this Agreement or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby.
(d) Consents and Approvals. No consent, approval, order or authorization of, or
registration, declaration or filing with, any court or any administrative, regulatory or
governmental authority (“Governmental Authority”) is necessary to be obtained or made by
the Stockholder in connection with the Stockholder’s execution, delivery and performance of this
Agreement or the consummation by the Stockholder of the transactions contemplated hereby, except
for (A) the applicable requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and (B)
such other consents, approvals, orders or authorization of, or registrations, declarations or
filings with, any Governmental Authority where the failure to obtain or take such action,
individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to impair the ability of the
Stockholder to perform its obligations hereunder or to consummate the transactions contemplated
hereby on a timely basis.
5
(e) Absence of Litigation. There is no claim, proceeding, investigation, lawsuit or
other legal action (collectively, “Actions”) pending and no Order of any Governmental
Authority outstanding nor, to the knowledge of the Stockholder, is any such action or Order
threatened, against the Stockholder which may prevent or materially delay such Stockholder from
performing its obligations under this Agreement or consummating the transactions contemplated
hereby on a timely basis.
ARTICLE IV
OTHER COVENANTS
4.1. Prohibition on Transfers, Other Actions. The Stockholder hereby agrees not to
(a) Transfer any of the Covered Shares, Beneficial Ownership thereof or any other interest therein
unless such Transfer is a Permitted Transfer; (b) enter into any agreement, arrangement or
understanding with any Person, or take any other action, that violates or conflicts with or would
reasonably be expected to violate or conflict with, or result in or give rise to a violation of or
conflict with, the Stockholder’s representations, warranties, covenants and obligations under this
Agreement; or (c) take any action that could restrict or otherwise affect such Stockholder’s legal
power, authority and right to comply with and perform its covenants and obligations under this
Agreement. Any Transfer in violation of this provision shall be void.
4.2. Stock Dividends, etc. In the event of any stock dividend or distribution or
any change in the Common Stock by reason of any split-up, reverse stock split, recapitalization,
combination, reclassification, exchange of shares or the like, the terms “Existing Shares” and
“Covered Shares” shall be deemed to refer to and include such shares as well as all such stock
dividends and distributions and any securities into which or for which any or all of such shares
may be changed or exchanged or which are received in such transaction.
4.3. Notice of Acquisitions, Permitted Transfers, and Contacts Concerning Board
Election. The Stockholder hereby agrees to notify the Gregorys as promptly as practicable (and
in any event within 24 hours) in writing of (a) the number of any additional shares of Common Stock
or other securities of the Company of which the Stockholder acquires Beneficial Ownership on or
after the date hereof and prior to the termination of this Agreement, (b) any proposed Permitted
Transfers of the Covered Shares, Beneficial Ownership thereof or other interest therein and (c) any
inquiries or proposals which are received by, any information which is requested from, or any
negotiations or discussions which are sought to be initiated or continued with the Stockholder or
any of its Affiliates with respect to any Board Election (including the material terms thereof and
the identity of such person(s) making such inquiry or proposal, requesting such information or
seeking to initiate or continue such negotiations or discussions, as the case may be).
4.4. Stockholder Capacity. No Person executing this Agreement who is or becomes
during the term hereof a director or officer of the Company shall be deemed to make any agreement
or understanding in this Agreement in such Person’s capacity as a director or officer. Nothing
herein shall limit or affect any actions taken by such Person solely in his or her capacity as a
director or officer of the Company.
4.5. Further Assurances and Public Disclosure. From time to time, at the Gregorys’
request and without further consideration, the Stockholder shall execute and deliver such
additional documents and take all such further action as may be reasonably necessary to effect the
actions and consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Without limiting the
foregoing, the Stockholder hereby authorizes the Gregory’s to publish and disclose in any
announcement and in any filing or other
disclosure required by the SEC the Stockholder’s identity and ownership of the Covered Shares
and the nature of such Stockholder’s obligations under this agreement and to file this agreement
with the SEC.

5.3. Interpretation This Agreement is the product of negotiation by the parties
having the assistance of counsel and other advisers. It is the intention of the parties that this
Agreement not be construed more strictly with regard to one party than with regard to the others.
5.4. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed by facsimile or electronic mail
and in counterparts, all of which shall be considered one and the same agreement, and shall become
effective when counterparts have been signed by each of the parties and delivered to the other
parties, it being understood that all parties need not sign the same counterpart.
5.5. Entire Agreement. This Agreement embodies the complete agreement and
understanding among the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes and
preempts any prior understandings, agreements or representations by or among the parties, written
and oral, that may have related to the subject matter hereof in any way.
7
5.6. Governing Law; Consent to Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial.
(a) This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State
of Delaware, regardless of the laws that might otherwise govern under applicable principles of
conflicts of laws thereof. The parties agree that irreparable damage would occur and that the
parties
would not have any adequate remedy at law in the event that any of the provisions of this
Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. It
is accordingly agreed that the parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent
breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement
in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware (and any appellate court of the State of
Delaware) and the Federal courts of the United States of America located in the State of Delaware,
this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity. In
addition, each of the parties hereto (a) consents to submit itself to the personal jurisdiction of
the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware (and any appellate court of the State of Delaware)
and the Federal courts of the United States of America located in the State of Delaware in the
event any dispute arises out of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement,
(b) agrees that it will not attempt to deny or defeat such personal jurisdiction by motion or other
request for leave from any such court and (c) agrees that it will not bring any action relating to
this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement in any court other than the Court
of Chancery of the State of Delaware or a Federal court of the United States of America located in
the State of Delaware.
(b) Each party hereto hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any
right it may have to a trial by jury in respect of any suit, action or other proceeding arising out
of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby. Each party hereto (i) certifies that no
representative, agent or attorney of any other party has represented, expressly or otherwise, that
such party would not, in the event of any action, suit or proceeding, seek to enforce the foregoing
waiver and (ii) acknowledges that it and the other parties hereto have been induced to enter into
this Agreement, by, among other things, the mutual waiver and certifications in this Section 5.6.
(c) Each party to this Agreement irrevocably consents to the service of process out of any of
the aforementioned courts in any suit, action or other proceeding by the mailing of copies thereof
by mail to such party at its address set forth in this Agreement, such service of process to be
effective upon acknowledgement of receipt of such registered mail; provided that nothing in this
Agreement shall affect the right of any party to serve legal process in any other manner permitted
by law.
5.7. Amendment; Waiver. This Agreement may not be amended except by an instrument
in writing signed by each of the Gregorys and by the Stockholder. Each party may waive any right
of such party hereunder by an instrument in writing signed by such party and delivered to the other
party.
5.8. Remedies. (a) Each party hereto acknowledges that monetary damages would not
be an adequate remedy in the event that any covenant or agreement in this Agreement is not
performed in accordance with its terms, and it is therefore agreed that, in addition to and without
limiting any other remedy or right it may have, the non-breaching party will have the right to an
injunction, temporary restraining order or other equitable relief in any court of competent
jurisdiction enjoining any such breach and enforcing specifically the terms and provisions hereof.
Each party hereto agrees not to oppose the granting of such relief in the event a court determines
that such a breach has occurred and to waive any requirement for the securing or posting of any
bond in connection with such remedy.
(b) All rights, powers and remedies provided under this Agreement or otherwise available in
respect hereof at law or in equity shall be cumulative and not alternative, and the exercise or
beginning of the exercise of any thereof by any party shall not preclude the simultaneous or later
exercise of any other such right, power or remedy by such party.
8
5.9. Severability. Any term or provision of this Agreement which is determined by a
court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to
that jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity or unenforceability without
rendering invalid or unenforceable
the remaining terms and provisions of this Agreement or affecting the validity or
enforceability of any of the terms or provisions of this Agreement in any other jurisdiction, and
if any provision of this Agreement is determined to be so broad as to be unenforceable, the
provision shall be interpreted to be only so broad as is enforceable, in all cases so long as
neither the economic nor legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is affected in any
manner adverse to any party or its stockholders. Upon any such determination, the parties shall
negotiate in good faith in an effort to agree upon a suitable and equitable substitute provision to
effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible and to the end that the
transactions contemplated hereby shall be fulfilled to the maximum extent possible.
5.10. Successors and Assigns; Third Party Beneficiaries. Except for a Permitted
Transfer in compliance with the terms and conditions set forth herein, neither this Agreement nor
any of the rights or obligations of any party under this Agreement shall be assigned, in whole or
in part (by operation of law or otherwise), by any party without the prior written consent of the
other parties hereto. Subject to the foregoing, this Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit
of and be enforceable by the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns.
Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to confer on any Person other than the
parties hereto or their respective successors and permitted assigns any rights, remedies,
obligations or liabilities under or by reason of this Agreement.
5.11. Expenses. Except as otherwise provided herein, all costs and expenses
incurred in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be paid by the
party incurring such costs and expenses.
