ARTICLE I

VOTING AGREEMENT

Section 1.01 Voting of the Covered Shares. The Stockholders hereby irrevocably and unconditionally covenant and agree that, during the Voting Period (as hereinafter defined), at any meeting of the stockholders of the Company (whether annual or special), however called, or at any adjournment or postponement thereof, or in any other circumstances (including an action by written consent) upon which a vote or other approval is sought, the Stockholders shall:

(a) with respect to any vote relating to the Emerald Share Issuance or any other matter to be approved by the stockholders of the Company to facilitate the Emerald Share Issuance (other than the matters specified in Section 1.1(a) of the Framework Agreement, which are governed thereby), cause 15.5 million shares of Company Common Stock (the “Stockholder Continuing Interest”) to appear at such meeting or otherwise be counted as present thereat for the purpose of establishing a quorum and vote such Stockholder Continuing Interest, in person or by proxy, in favor of the Emerald Share Issuance;

(b) prior to the Coniston Closing, with respect to any vote relating to the Emerald Share Issuance or any other matter to be approved by the stockholders of the Company to facilitate the Emerald Share Issuance (other than the matters specified in

 

3


Section 1.1(a) of the Framework Agreement, which are governed thereby), cause all their remaining Covered Shares (other than the Stockholder Continuing Interest) not to appear or be present or otherwise counted as present thereat for the purpose of establishing a quorum; provided, however, that if the Stockholders receive written notice from the Secretary of the Company in accordance with Section 1.04 at least six (6) hours prior to the meeting of stockholders at which any such vote is to be taken that the shares of Company Common Stock held by stockholders other than the Stockholders and their Affiliates that are present in person or by proxy at the meeting (the “Public Shares”) are not sufficient, when combined with the Stockholder Continuing Interest, to constitute at least thirty-five percent (35%) of the then outstanding shares of Company Common Stock, then if and to the extent so requested by the Company and Emerald, the Stockholders shall cause such additional Covered Shares (and only such additional Covered Shares) as may be necessary, when added together with the Public Shares and the Stockholder Continuing Interest, to result in up to thirty-five percent (35%) of the then outstanding shares of Company Common Stock to be present (the “Additional Covered Shares”) and cause the Additional Covered Shares caused to be present pursuant to this clause (b) to be voted for and against, and to abstain or not vote, with respect to the Emerald Share Issuance or any other matter to be approved by the stockholders of the Company to facilitate the Emerald Share Issuance (other than the matters specified in Section 1.1(a) of the Framework Agreement, which are governed thereby) in the same proportion as the Public Shares are voted for and against, and abstain or are not voted, respectively, by the holders of the Public Shares; provided, however, that the number of Additional Covered Shares shall not exceed as a percentage of the total Covered Shares (excluding the Stockholder Continuing Interest) held by the Stockholders, the percentage the Public Shares constitute of the total number of shares of Company Common Stock held by stockholders other than the Stockholders and their Affiliates;

(c)(i) vote (or cause to be voted), in person or by proxy, the Stockholder Continuing Interest against (A) any extraordinary corporate transaction (other than the Emerald Share Issuance, the Merger and the Coniston Transaction), such as a merger, consolidation, business combination, tender or exchange offer, reorganization, recapitalization, liquidation, or sale or transfer of all or substantially all of the assets or securities of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, (B) any amendment of the Company’s certificate of incorporation or by-laws other than as contemplated by the Framework Agreement or the Merger Agreement, (C) any other proposal, action or transaction involving the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, which amendment or other proposal, action or transaction would reasonably be expected to in any manner impede, frustrate, prevent or nullify the Framework Agreement, the Merger Agreement, the Emerald Share Issuance, the Coniston Transaction, the Arsenal Exchange or any of the other transactions contemplated thereby (including the amendments to the Company’s certificate of incorporation contemplated by the Framework Agreement) and (D) any extraordinary dividend, distribution or recapitalization by the Company or change in capital structure of the Company (other than pursuant to or as expressly permitted by the

 

4


Merger Agreement or the Framework Agreement) (the matters described in the foregoing clauses (A) through (D) being referred to as “Competing Actions”); and (ii) vote (or cause to be voted), in person or by proxy, the remaining Covered Shares (other than the Stockholder Continuing Interest) either, in the sole discretion of the Stockholders, (x) against any Competing Action or (y) for and against, and abstain or not vote, with respect to any Competing Action in the same proportion as the Public Shares are voted for and against, and abstain or are not voted, respectively, by the holders of the Public Shares; and

(d) not take any action by written consent to approve any Competing Action.

For the purposes of this Agreement, “Voting Period” shall mean the period commencing on the date hereof and ending immediately prior to any termination of this Agreement in accordance with its terms pursuant to Article IV hereof. The Stockholders and their Affiliates shall remain free to vote or cause to be voted (or execute or cause to be executed consents or proxies with respect thereto) the Covered Shares with respect to any matter not covered by this Section 1.01 in any manner the Stockholders or their Affiliates deem appropriate.

Section 1.02 Proxies. During the Voting Period, in order to secure the performance of the Stockholders’ obligations under Section 1.01 of this Agreement, the Stockholders hereby (a) terminate and revoke any and all previous proxies granted with respect to the Covered Shares (except for the irrevocable proxy granted pursuant to the Relationship Agreement dated as of March 17, 2008 between the Company and Manchester (the “Existing Relationship Agreement”)), (b) irrevocably grant the proxy attached as Exhibit 1 hereto (the “Proxy”) with respect to the Stockholder Continuing Interest in the manner contemplated by Section 1.01 and (c) provided the Company complies with its obligations under Section 1.04, agree to irrevocably grant prior to any vote taken as described in Section 1.01(b) the proxy attached as Exhibit 2 hereto (the “Subsequent Proxy”) with respect to the exact number of Additional Covered Shares determined in accordance with Section 1.01(b) as notified by the Company and Emerald pursuant to Section 1.04. The Stockholders hereby affirm that the irrevocable proxies set forth in this Section 1.02 are given in connection with the execution of the Merger Agreement and the Framework Agreement, and that such irrevocable proxies are given to secure the performance of the duties of the Stockholders under this Agreement. Except as provided for in the last sentence of this Section 1.02, each Stockholder hereby (i) affirms that such Stockholder’s irrevocable proxy granted or to be granted hereunder are or, when granted, will be coupled with an interest, may under no circumstances be revoked and will survive the insolvency or liquidation of such Stockholder, (ii) ratifies and confirms all that the proxy appointed by such Stockholder hereunder may lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue hereof and (iii) agrees that such Stockholder will take such further action or execute such other instruments as may be necessary to effectuate the intent of the proxy granted, or to be granted, hereunder by such Stockholder.

Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, the irrevocable proxies granted hereunder shall automatically terminate upon the termination or expiration of this Agreement without any notice or other action by any Person.

Section 1.03 No Ownership Interest. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be deemed to vest in the Company, Emerald, any Person appointed as the proxy of any Stockholder pursuant to this Agreement or any other Person any direct or indirect ownership or incidence of ownership of or with respect to any Covered Shares, other than the right of the holder of the Proxy and the Subsequent Proxy, respectively, under certain circumstances, to vote the Covered Shares upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement. Except as provided in this Agreement, all rights, ownership and economic benefits of and relating to the Covered Shares shall remain vested in and belong to the Stockholders and their Affiliates, and neither the Company nor Emerald nor any Person appointed as the proxy of any Stockholder pursuant to this Agreement shall have any power or authority to direct the Stockholders in the voting of any of the Covered Shares, except as otherwise specifically provided herein, or in the performance of the Stockholders’ duties or responsibilities as stockholders of the Company. Nothing in this Agreement shall be interpreted as (i) obligating the Stockholders to exercise any warrants, options, conversion of convertible securities or otherwise acquire Company Common Stock or (ii) creating or forming a “group” with any other Person, including the Company or Emerald, for purposes of Rule 13d-5(b)(1) of the Exchange Act or any other similar provision of applicable Law.

Section 1.04 Provision of Information and Tabulation. The Company shall, and shall cause the Company’s Secretary to, provide in writing at least six (6) hours prior to the commencement of such meeting of stockholders as set forth in the Company’s notice of meeting, sufficient information regarding the number of shares of Company Common Stock present for quorum purposes, the additional number of Covered Shares required to be present such that, when added together with the Public Shares and the Stockholder Continuing Interest, will result in up to thirty-five percent (35%) of the then outstanding shares of Company Common Stock to be present, and the number of Public Shares voted for and against, and that have abstained or not voted with respect to, any matter described in Section 1.01(b) for the Stockholders to be able to determine whether they are required under Section 1.01(b) to cause to be present for purposes of a quorum and voting, and cause to be covered by the Subsequent Proxy, any Covered Shares other than the Stockholder Continuing Interest. The Stockholders shall have no obligation to cause to be present for purposes of a quorum and vote any Covered Shares other than the Stockholder Continuing Interest at the meeting of stockholders if such information is not provided as set forth herein.

Section 1.05 Waiver by the Company. The Company hereby waives, during the Voting Period, any right under the Existing Relationship Agreement or otherwise that would be inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement.

Section 3.05 Manchester Shareholder Meeting.

(a) Manchester has undertaken in the Framework Agreement to call, convene and hold a meeting of its shareholders and, subject to the exercise by the board of directors of Manchester of its fiduciary duties, recommend that its shareholders approve the Coniston Transaction and the other transactions contemplated by the Framework Agreement (the “Shareholder Recommendation”).

(b) Except as otherwise provided in Section 3.05(c) or 3.05(d), neither the board of directors of Manchester nor any committee thereof shall (i) withhold, withdraw, modify or qualify, or propose publicly to withhold, withdraw, modify or qualify the Shareholder Recommendation in a manner adverse to Emerald, (ii) approve, endorse, adopt or recommend, or publicly propose to approve, endorse, adopt or recommend, any Company Takeover Proposal or (iii) enter into any letter of intent or written agreement in principle or any binding agreement providing for, relating to or in connection with, any Company Takeover Proposal or any proposal that is reasonably expected to lead to a Company Acquisition Transaction (a “Shareholder Adverse Recommendation Change”).

(c) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, with respect to a Company Takeover Proposal, the board of directors of Manchester may, at any time prior to receipt of the Manchester Shareholder Approval, effect a Shareholder Adverse Recommendation Change, in the event a written Company Takeover Proposal is made to Manchester by a Third Party and such Company Takeover Proposal is not withdrawn if (and only if): (i) the board of directors of Manchester determines in good faith after consultation with its financial advisors that such Company Takeover Proposal constitutes a Superior Proposal; (ii) following consultation with its outside legal counsel, the board of directors of Manchester determines that the failure to make a Shareholder Adverse Recommendation Change would be inconsistent with the exercise of its fiduciary duties to the shareholders of Manchester under applicable Laws; (iii) Manchester provides Emerald and the Company five (5) business days’ prior written notice of its intention to take such action, which notice shall include the information with respect to such Superior Proposal that is specified in Section 3.04(b); (iv) during such five business day period, Manchester and its Representatives have negotiated in good faith with Emerald and the Company regarding any revisions to the terms of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement and the Framework Agreement proposed by Emerald and the Company in response to such Superior Proposal; and (v) at the end of the five (5) business day period described in the foregoing clause (v), the board of directors of Manchester again makes the determination in good faith after consultation with its outside legal counsel and financial advisors (and taking into account any adjustment or modification of the terms of the Merger Agreement and the Framework Agreement proposed by Emerald and the Company) that the Company Takeover Proposal continues to be a Superior Proposal and that the failure to make a Shareholder

 

11


Adverse Recommendation Change would be inconsistent with the exercise by the board of directors of Manchester of its fiduciary duties to the shareholders of Manchester under applicable Laws.

(d) Nothing in this Agreement shall prohibit or restrict the board of directors of Manchester, in circumstances not involving or relating to a Company Takeover Proposal, from effecting, prior to obtaining the Manchester Shareholder Approval, a Shareholder Adverse Recommendation Change in response to the occurrence of a Company Intervening Event if (and only if): (i) the board of directors of Manchester determines in good faith (after consultation with its outside legal counsel) that failure to take such action would be inconsistent with the exercise by the board of directors of Manchester of its fiduciary duties to the shareholders of Manchester under applicable Laws; (ii) Manchester has provided to Emerald and the Company at least five (5) business days’ prior written notice describing the Company Intervening Event and advising Emerald and the Company that the board of directors of Manchester intends to take such action and specifying the reasons therefor in reasonable detail; (iii) during such five (5) business day period, Manchester and its Representatives have negotiated in good faith with Emerald and the Company regarding any revisions to the terms of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement and the Framework Agreement proposed by Emerald and the Company in response thereto; and (iv) at the end of the five (5) business day period described in the foregoing clause (iii), the board of directors of Manchester again makes the determination in good faith after consultation with its outside legal counsel (and taking into account any adjustment or modification of the terms of the Merger Agreement and the Framework Agreement proposed by Emerald and the Company) that a Company Intervening Event continues to exist and that the failure to make a Shareholder Adverse Recommendation Change would be inconsistent with the exercise by the board of directors of Manchester of its fiduciary duties to the shareholders of Manchester under applicable Laws. Manchester agrees that neither the board of directors of Manchester nor any committee thereof shall effect a Shareholder Adverse Recommendation Change as a result of any event, occurrence, fact, condition, effect, change or development relating to obtaining the IRS Private Letter Ruling or any tax opinion with respect to any of the matters that are the subject of the requested IRS Private Letter Ruling. Manchester agrees to submit the Coniston Transaction and the other transactions contemplated by the Framework Agreement to its shareholders for approval whether or not the board of directors of Manchester determines to make a Shareholder Adverse Recommendation Change.

(e) For purposes of this Agreement, “Company Intervening Event” means an event or circumstance relating to the Company or Manchester (other than any event or circumstance resulting from a breach of the Framework Agreement by Manchester), occurring or arising after the date hereof that was not known to the board of directors of Manchester as of the date hereof; provided, however, that (i) in no event shall the receipt, existence or terms of a Company Takeover Proposal, or any inquiry or matter

 

12


relating thereto or consequence thereof, constitute a Company Intervening Event, (ii) in no event shall any action taken by any of the Parties pursuant to and in compliance with the terms of the Merger Agreement and the Framework Agreement constitute a Company Intervening Event and (iii) in no event shall any event, occurrence, fact, condition, effect, change or development that has an adverse effect on the business, assets, liabilities (contingent or otherwise), financial condition or results of operations of Emerald or the Company or any of their respective Subsidiaries, or the market price of Emerald’s common stock or the Company Common Stock (in and of itself), constitute a Company Intervening Event, unless such event, occurrence, fact, condition, effect, change or development has had a Company Material Adverse Effect or Parent Material Adverse Effect (as such terms are defined in the Merger Agreement).

Section 3.06 No Restraint on Officer or Director Action. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Company and Emerald hereby acknowledge and agree that no provision in this Agreement shall limit or otherwise restrict any officer, director, partner or employee of any Stockholder who is, or becomes during the term hereof, a director or an officer of the Company or any Stockholder with respect to any act or omission that such individual may undertake or authorize in his or her capacity as a director or an officer of the Company or any Stockholder, including any vote that such individual may make as a director of the Company or any Stockholder, with respect to any matter presented to the board of directors of the Company or any Stockholder. The agreements set forth herein shall in no way restrict any such director or officer in the exercise of his or her fiduciary duties as a director or officer of the Company or any Stockholder. The Stockholders have executed this Agreement solely in the capacity as the beneficial owner of the Covered Shares, and no action taken by any such director or officer shall be deemed to constitute a breach of any provision of this Agreement.

Section 3.07 Further Assurances. Each Party agrees, from time to time, upon the reasonable request of any other Party, to execute and deliver, or cause to be executed and delivered, such additional or further consents, documents and other instruments as may be reasonably necessary for the purpose of effectively carrying out the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

Section 5.04 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement (or any portion thereof) or the application of any such provision (or any portion thereof) to any Person or circumstance shall be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect by a court of competent jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision of this Agreement (or the remaining portion thereof) or the application of such provision to any other Person or circumstances. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the Parties as closely as possible in a mutually acceptable manner in order that the transactions contemplated hereby are completed as originally contemplated to the greatest extent possible.

Section 5.05 Entire Agreement; Successors and Assigns.

(a) This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement and understanding among the Parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings, both oral and written, between the Parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement. The Schedules are an integral part of this Agreement and are incorporated by reference into this Agreement for all purposes.

(b) The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns; provided that no Party may assign, delegate or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the consent of each other Party, which consent, in the case of the Company prior to the Coniston Closing, shall be approved by the Audit Committee of the board of directors of the Company. Any attempted assignment in violation of this Section 5.05(b) shall be void.

Section 5.06 Amendment. Any provision of this Agreement may be amended or waived if, but only if, such amendment or waiver is in writing and is signed,

 

16


in the case of an amendment, by each Party, or in the case of a waiver, by the Party against whom the waiver is to be effective and, in the case of a waiver or amendment by the Company prior to the Coniston Closing, approved by the Audit Committee of the board of directors of the Company.

Section 5.07 Waivers. Any waiver of any term or condition of this Agreement shall not be construed as a waiver of any subsequent breach, or a subsequent waiver of the same term or condition or a waiver of any other term or condition, of this Agreement. The failure of any Party to assert any of its rights hereunder shall not constitute a waiver of any of such rights. No failure or delay by any Party in exercising any right, power or privilege under this Agreement shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege.

Section 5.08 Remedies Cumulative. Other than as expressly set forth herein, the rights and remedies provided in this Agreement shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by Law.

Section 5.09 Parties in Interest. This Agreement is for the sole benefit of the Parties and their successors and permitted assigns and nothing express or implied in this Agreement is intended or shall be construed to confer upon any Person other than the Parties any legal or equitable rights or remedies under this Agreement.

Section 5.10 Governing Law. This Agreement (and any claims or disputes arising out of or related to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby or to the inducement of any Party to enter into this Agreement, whether for breach of contract, tortious conduct or otherwise and whether predicated on common law, statute or otherwise) shall in all respects be governed by and construed in accordance with the Laws of the State of Delaware, including all matters of construction, validity and performance, in each case without reference to any conflict of law rules that might lead to the application of the Laws of any other jurisdiction. Each Party irrevocably and unconditionally waives any objection to the application of the Laws of the State of Delaware to any action, suit or proceeding arising out of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby and further irrevocably and unconditionally waives and agrees not to plead or claim that any such action, suit or proceeding should not be governed by the Laws of the State of Delaware.

Section 5.11 Specific Performance; Submission To Jurisdiction.

(a) The Parties agree that irreparable damage would occur 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 seek an injunction or injunctions or other appropriate equitable relief to

 

17


prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement in the Delaware Court of Chancery (unless such court shall lack subject matter jurisdiction over such action, in which case, in any state or federal court located in Delaware), this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity, and the Parties hereby waive in any such proceeding the defense of adequacy of a remedy at law and any requirement for the securing or posting of any bond or any other security related to such equitable relief.

(b) Each Party irrevocably and unconditionally submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Delaware Court of Chancery, or if such court is unavailable, any state or federal courts located in Delaware, for the purposes of any suit, action or other proceeding arising out of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby. Each Party hereby agrees that it will not bring any action relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby in any court other than the Delaware Court of Chancery (unless such court shall lack subject matter jurisdiction over such action, in which case, in any state or federal court located in Delaware). Each Party hereby waives formal service of process and agrees that service of any process, summons, notice or document by U.S. registered mail to such Party’s respective address set forth above shall be effective service of process for any action, suit or proceeding in Delaware with respect to any matters to which it has submitted to jurisdiction in this Section 5.11. Each Party irrevocably and unconditionally waives any objection to the laying of venue of any action, suit or proceeding arising out of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby in such courts and hereby and thereby further irrevocably and unconditionally waives and agrees not to plead or claim in any such court that any such action, suit or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum.

(c) EACH PARTY HEREBY EXPRESSLY AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVES TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT TO ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE) DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY RELATING TO ANY DISPUTE ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY. Each Party (a) certifies that no representative, agent or attorney of any other Party has represented, expressly or otherwise, that such other Party would not, in the event of litigation, seek to enforce the foregoing waiver and (b) acknowledges that it and each other Party have been induced to enter into this Agreement by, among other things, the mutual waivers and certifications in this Section 5.11.

(d) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or any agreement contemplated hereby to the contrary, in the event that, prior to the Coniston Closing (as such term is defined in the Framework Agreement), or, if the Coniston Closing does not occur, at any time after the date hereof (i) there is any action or

 

18


determination to be made by the Company hereunder that would require approval of the board of directors of the Company or any committee thereof, (ii) there is any action, suit, proceeding, litigation or arbitration between the Company and any Stockholder or Emerald or (iii) there is any disputed claim or demand (including any claim or demand relating to enforcing any remedy under this Agreement or any agreement contemplated hereby) by the Company against any Stockholder or Emerald, or by any Stockholder or Emerald against the Company, all actions or determinations of the Company prior to the Coniston Closing or, if the Coniston Closing does not occur, at any time after the date hereof or any determinations of the Company relating to any such action, suit, proceeding, litigation, arbitration, claim, demand (including all determinations by the Company whether to institute, compromise or settle any such action, suit, proceeding, litigation, arbitration, claim or demand and all determinations by the Company relating to the prosecution or defense thereof), shall be made and approved by the Audit Committee of the board of directors of the Company.

Section 5.12 Interpretation. The headings and captions in this Agreement are included for convenience of reference only and shall be ignored in the construction or interpretation of this Agreement. Any capitalized terms used in any Schedule but not otherwise defined therein shall have the meanings as defined in this Agreement. All references to Articles, Sections or Schedules contained in this Agreement shall be to Articles, Sections or Schedules of or to this Agreement unless otherwise stated. Unless the context of this Agreement otherwise clearly requires, (i) references to the plural include the singular, and references to the singular include the plural, (ii) references to any gender include the other genders, (iii) the words “include,” “includes” and “including” do not limit the preceding terms or words and shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation”, (iv) the terms “hereof”, “herein”, “hereunder”, “hereto” and similar terms in this Agreement refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular provision of this Agreement, (v) the terms “day” and “days” mean and refer to calendar day(s) and (vi) the terms “year” and “years” mean and refer to calendar year(s).

Section 5.13 Counterparts. This Agreement may be signed in any number of counterparts (including by fax or other electronic signature), each of which shall be an original, with the same effect as if the signatures were upon the same instrument. This Agreement shall become effective when each Party shall have received a counterpart of this Agreement signed by each other Party.

Section 5.14 Public Announcement; Disclosure. The Stockholders shall consult with each of the Company and Emerald before issuing any press releases or otherwise making any public statements with respect to the transactions contemplated herein and, except as required by Law or regulatory authority (if reasonably practicable after notice to and consultation with each of the Company and Emerald), shall not issue any such press release or make any such public statement without the prior approval of

 

19


the Company and Emerald (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). The Stockholders hereby authorize the Company and Emerald to publish and disclose, in any announcement, disclosure or filing required by any Governmental Entity, the Stockholders’ identity and ownership of the Covered Shares and the nature of the Stockholders’ commitments, arrangements and understandings under this Agreement.
