instructions for use in effecting the surrender of           the Certificates in exchange
for the applicable Merger Consideration. Upon           surrender of a Certificate to the
Paying Agent, together with such letter of           transmittal, duly executed, and such
other documents as may reasonably be           required by the Paying Agent, the holder
of such Certificate shall be entitled           to receive in exchange therefor from the
Paying Agent the amount of cash into           which the shares of Company Common Stock
theretofore represented by such           Certificate shall have been converted pursuant
to <U>Section 2.1</U>. In the           event of a transfer of ownership of the shares of
Company Common Stock that is           not registered in the transfer records of the
Company, payment may be made to a           person other than the person in whose name
the Certificate so surrendered is           registered, if such Certificate shall be
properly endorsed or otherwise be in           proper form for transfer and the person
requesting such payment shall pay any           transfer or other Taxes (as defined in <U>Section
3.9</U>) required by reason of           the payment to a person other than the
registered holder of such Certificate or           establish to the satisfaction of the
Surviving Corporation that such Tax has           been paid or is not applicable. Until
surrendered as contemplated by this <U>Section 2.1(f)</U>, each Certificate shall be
deemed at any time after the           Effective Time to represent only the right to
receive upon such surrender the           amount of cash, without interest, into which
the shares of Company Common Stock           theretofore represented by such Certificate
shall have been converted pursuant           to <U>Section 2.1</U>. No interest will be
paid or will accrue on the cash           payable upon the surrender of any Certificate.
In the event any Certificate           shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon
making of an affidavit of that           fact by the person claiming such Certificate to
be lost, stolen or destroyed,           the Surviving Corporation will pay in exchange
for such lost, stolen or           destroyed Certificate, the amount of cash into which
the shares of Company           Common Stock theretofore represented by such certificate
have been converted           pursuant to <U>Section 2.1</U>, except that when
authorizing such payment, the           Board of Directors of the Surviving Corporation,
may, in its discretion and as a           condition precedent to such payment, require
the owner of such lost, stolen or           destroyed Certificate to deliver a bond in
such sum as it may reasonably direct           as indemnity against any claim that may be
made against the Surviving           Corporation or the Paying Agent with respect to such
Certificate.  </FONT></P>

4.4. <U>Financing</U>. The Purchaser has received, and provided to the Special Committee
a copy of, a fully executed commitment letter from General Electric Capital Corporation
dated October&nbsp;28, 2004 providing for financing necessary to consummate the Merger
and describing the terms and conditions upon which such lender will arrange and provide
such financing (the &#147;<U>Commitment Letter</U>&#148;). A true and correct copy of the
Commitment Letter is included in Section&nbsp;4.4 of the written disclosure schedule
delivered by the Purchaser to the Company on the date of this Agreement. The lender&#146;s
obligations to fund the commitments under the Commitment Letter are not subject to any
conditions other than as set forth in the Commitment Letter. The Purchaser is not aware
of any fact or occurrence existing on the date of this Agreement that (i) makes any of
the assumptions or statements set forth in the Commitment Letter inaccurate, (ii) causes
the Commitment Letter to be ineffective or (iii) precludes the satisfaction of the
conditions set forth in the Commitment Letter.<B></B>All commitment or other fees
required to be paid under the Commitment Letter on or prior to the date hereof have been
paid. The aggregate amount of financing committed pursuant to the Commitment Letter,
together with the Company&#146;s available cash as contemplated by the Commitment Letter,
is sufficient to fund all amounts required to be paid in connection with the consummation
of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and to pay all of the related fees and
expenses.<B></B> The Purchaser believes that, upon the consummation of the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement (i) the Surviving Corporation will not be insolvent, (ii)
the Surviving Corporation will not be left with unreasonably small capital, and (iii) the
Surviving Corporation will not have incurred debts beyond its ability to pay such debts
as they mature.  </FONT></P>
