The issuance and delivery of the 600,000 Shares shall be made on the earliest practicable date after the Issuer has received unconditional approval of the additional share listing application or upon such delisting; provided that if the additional share listing application has not been approved prior to the thirtieth day after August 10, 2007 (with an automatic extension of thirty (30) days if the Company is in good faith pursuing an appeal with the American Stock Exchange to approve the additional listing application) or the Issuer has not otherwise provided the 600,000 Shares to RCG, the Issuer will be in default of the Stock Purchase Agreement, which shall also constitute an event of default under the Repurchase Agreement.

The Reporting Persons intend to review their investment in the Issuer on a continuing basis and engage in discussions with management and the Board of Directors of the Issuer concerning the business, operations and future plans of the Issuer. Depending on various factors including, without limitation, the Issuer's financial position and investment strategy, the price levels of the Shares, conditions in the securities markets and general economic and industry conditions, the Reporting Persons may in the future take such actions with respect to their investment in the Issuer as they deem appropriate including, without limitation, seeking Board representation, making proposals to the Issuer concerning changes to the capitalization, ownership structure or operations of the Issuer, purchasing additional Shares, selling some or all of their Shares, engaging in short selling of or any hedging or similar transaction with respect to the Shares or changing their intention with respect to any and all matters referred to in Item 4.
