BANKRUPTCY COURT APPROVALS

7.1 Sale Process. Seller has filed a motion with the Bankruptcy Court (the “Sale Motion”) for an order (the “Sale Order”) from the Bankruptcy Court which (i) approves the sale of the Purchased Securities and Assets to Purchaser on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement and authorizes Seller to proceed with this transaction, (ii) includes a specific finding that Purchaser is a good faith purchaser of the Purchased Securities and Assets, (iii) provides for a waiver of the stays contemplated by Bankruptcy Rules 6004(h) and 6006(d); (iv) approves the Seller’s assumption and assignment to the Purchaser pursuant to Section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code of any shareholder agreements included with the Purchased Securities and Assets and (v) states that the sale of the Purchased Securities and Assets to Purchaser shall be free and clear of all liens, claims, interests and encumbrances whatsoever (other than the lien of current Taxes not yet payable with respect to any Purchased Securities and Assets or liens on the assets of the Companies not affected by the commencement of the Chapter 11 Case in the United States). Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain prompt entry of the Sale Order. Both Purchaser’s and Seller’s obligations to consummate the transactions contemplated in this Agreement shall be conditioned upon the Bankruptcy Court’s entry of the Sale Order containing the provisions listed in items (i) through (v) above. If the Bankruptcy Court refuses to issue the Sale Order or to approve any third party buyer at the hearing on the Sale Motion (the “Sale Hearing”), then this Agreement shall automatically terminate, and Seller and Purchaser shall be relieved of any further liability or obligation hereunder (other than Seller’s obligation to return the Escrowed Funds). In the event that a third party (an “Overbid Buyer” and the underlying agreement between the Overbid Buyer and Seller, the “Overbid Agreement”) is approved by the Bankruptcy Court as the buyer of the Purchased Securities and Assets at the Sale Hearing, then, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, this Agreement shall not terminate, but rather shall become a “back-up bid” which shall remain open for acceptance by Seller for the period through and including December 15, 2007 following entry by the Bankruptcy Court of the Sale Order, but subject and subordinate in all respects to the rights of the Overbid Buyer under the Overbid Agreement; provided, however, that this Agreement shall automatically terminate if the Sale Order is for any reason whatsoever not entered by the Bankruptcy Court on or before December 15, 2007 or the Closing to the Purchaser does not occur by December 22, 2007. Upon entry of the Sale Order in accordance with the provisions of this Section 7.1 (such entry date being referred to herein as the “Sale Approval Date”), the condition set forth in this Section 7.1 shall conclusively be deemed satisfied.

7.2 Overbid Process. The provisions of the Bankruptcy Court’s “Order: (A) Approving (i) Bidding Procedures with Respect to the Auction (as defined below), if any, (ii) The Form of the Purchase Agreement, and (iii) Payment of Certain Bid Protection;

- 36 -

(B) Approving the Form and Manner of Notice of the Auction, Bidding Procedures; (C) Setting a Hearing on the Sale Motion; and (D) Scheduling the Sale Hearing”, Docket No. 14, entered October 17, 2007, shall apply to this Agreement.

7.3 PURCHASER ACTIONS. Purchaser agrees that it will promptly take such reasonable actions as are reasonably requested by Seller to assist in obtaining the Sale Order including, without limitation, furnishing affidavits or other documents or information for filing with the Bankruptcy Court for the purposes, among others, of providing necessary assurances of performance by Purchaser under this Agreement and demonstrating that Purchaser is a “good faith” purchaser under section 363(m) of the Bankruptcy Code.
