4.                                       Legend.

(a)                                  Each certificate or instrument evidencing Restricted Shares and each certificate or instrument issued in exchange for or upon the Transfer of any Common Stock (if such securities remain Restricted Shares after such Transfer) shall be stamped or otherwise imprinted with a legend in substantially the following form:

“THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “ACT”), AND MAY NOT BE SOLD OR TRANSFERRED IN THE ABSENCE OF AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE ACT OR AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION THEREUNDER. THE SECURITIES

5

REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE ARE SUBJECT TO AN AMENDED AND RESTATED SECURITY HOLDERS AGREEMENT DATED AS OF                 , AS MAY BE AMENDED FROM TIME TO TIME, BY AND AMONG THE ISSUER AND CERTAIN OF THE ISSUER’S COMMON STOCK. A COPY OF SUCH AMENDED AND RESTATED SECURITY HOLDERS AGREEMENT WILL BE FURNISHED WITHOUT CHARGE BY THE ISSUER TO THE HOLDER HEREOF UPON WRITTEN REQUEST.”

The legend set forth above regarding this Agreement shall be removed from the certificates evidencing any securities which cease to be Restricted Shares. Upon the request of any Stockholder, the Company shall remove the Securities Act portion of the legend set forth above from the certificate or certificates for such Restricted Shares (if such Restricted Shares are certificated as of such time); provided, that such Restricted Shares are eligible (as reasonably determined by the Company) for sale pursuant to Rule 144(k) (or any similar rule or rules then in effect) under the Securities Act.

(b)                                 Unless waived by the Company, no Stockholder may Transfer any Restricted Shares (except pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act) without first delivering to the Company an opinion of counsel reasonably acceptable in form and substance to the Company (which counsel will be reasonably acceptable to the Company) that registration under the Securities Act is not required in connection with such Transfer. If such opinion of counsel reasonably acceptable in form and substance to the Company further states that no subsequent Transfer of such Restricted Shares will require registration under the Securities Act (including due to such Restricted Shares being eligible for sale pursuant to Rule 144 (or any similar rule or rules then in effect) under the Securities Act), the Company will promptly upon such Transfer deliver new certificates for such securities (if such securities are certificated as of such time) which do not bear the Securities Act portion of the legend set forth in Section 4(a).

5.                                       Transfers in Violation of Agreement. Any Transfer or attempted Transfer of any Restricted Shares in violation of any provision of this Agreement shall be null and void, and the Company shall not record such Transfer on its books or treat any purported transferee of such Restricted Shares as the owner of such securities for any purpose.

6.                                       Amendment and Waiver. No modification or amendment of any provision of this Agreement shall be effective against the Stockholders or the Company unless such modification or amendment is approved in writing by (i) the Company and (ii) BRS Majority Holders; and any amendment to which such written consent is obtained will be binding upon the Company and each Stockholder. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement shall be effective against any Stockholder unless such waiver is approved in writing by such Stockholder. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement shall be effective against the Company unless such waiver is approved in writing by the Company. The failure of any party to enforce any of the provisions of this Agreement shall in no way be construed as a waiver of such provisions and shall not affect the right of such party thereafter to enforce each and every provision of this Agreement in accordance with its terms. Each Stockholder shall remain a party to this Agreement only so long as such person is the holder of record of Restricted Shares.

6

7.                                       Severability. Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect under any applicable law or rule in any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision or any other jurisdiction, but this Agreement shall be reformed, construed and enforced in such jurisdiction as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had never been contained herein.

8.                                       Entire Agreement. Except as otherwise expressly set forth herein, this document 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 or oral, which may have related to the subject matter hereof in any way.

The Parties agree and acknowledge that money damages may not be an adequate remedy for any breach of the provisions of this Agreement and that the Company and any Stockholder may in his, hers, or its sole discretion apply to any court of law or equity of competent jurisdiction for specific performance and/or injunctive relief (without posting a bond or other security) in order to enforce or prevent any violation of the provisions of this Agreement.

12.                                 Notices. All notices, demands or other communications to be given or delivered under or by reason of the provisions of this Agreement will be in writing and will be deemed to have been given when delivered if delivered personally, sent via a nationally recognized overnight courier, or sent via facsimile to the recipient, or if sent by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, will be deemed to have been given two business days thereafter.
