Article II
Conversion of Securities; Exchange of Certificates

Section 2.1. Conversion of Securities

     At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of MRI, Merger Sub, Waves or the holders of any of the securities referred to in this Section 2.1:

     (a) Common Stock. Each share of Waves Common Stock (excluding any shares of treasury stock described in Section 2.1(b)) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall cease to be outstanding and shall be converted into and exchanged for the right to receive that fraction of a share of MRI Common Stock (the “Exchange Ratio”) equal to the quotient obtained by dividing the Total Merger Shares (1,300,000 shares of MRI Common Stock) by the aggregate number of shares of Waves Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time. The shares of MRI Common Stock issuable to the holders of Waves Common Stock pursuant hereto, together with the amount of cash in lieu of fractional shares payable pursuant to Section 2.1(d), is sometimes referred to herein, collectively, as the “Merger Consideration”. All such shares of Waves Common Stock shall cease to be outstanding and shall automatically be canceled and retired and shall cease to exist, and each certificate previously evidencing any such shares shall thereafter represent only the right to receive the Merger Consideration. Except as otherwise provided herein or by applicable law, the holder(s) of certificates previously evidencing such shares of Waves Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall cease to have any rights with respect to such shares of Waves Common Stock. Each such certificate previously evidencing such shares of Waves Common Stock shall be exchanged for the number of shares previously evidenced by the canceled certificate upon the surrender of such certificate in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.2 multiplied by the Exchange Ratio.

     (b) Treasury Stock. All shares of capital stock of Waves held in the treasury of Waves immediately prior to the Effective Time, if any, shall be canceled and extinguished without any conversion thereof and no amount shall be delivered or deliverable in exchange therefor.

     (c) Merger Sub Stock. Each share of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of Merger Sub issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into and exchanged for one (1) duly and validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable share of common stock of the Surviving Corporation.

     (d) No Fractional Shares. No certificate or scrip representing any fractional shares of MRI Common Stock shall be issued pursuant to Section 2.1(a), and other than the right to receive the cash payment pursuant to this Section 2.1(d), any such fractional interests shall not entitle the owner thereof to any rights as a security holder of MRI.

3

Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, all holders of Waves Common Stock otherwise entitled to receive fractional shares of MRI Common Stock pursuant to Section 2.1(a) shall be entitled to receive, in lieu thereof, cash (without interest) in an amount equal to the product of (i) such fractional part of a share of MRI Common Stock to which the holder of Waves Common Stock would otherwise be entitled under Section 2.1(a) multiplied by the closing price per share of MRI Common Stock on the Closing Date. As promptly as possible after the determination of the amount of cash to be paid to holders of fractional interests, MRI shall forward payments to holders of such fractional interests subject to and in accordance with the terms hereof.

Section 2.2. Exchange of Certificates

     (a) Exchange. As of the Effective Time, upon surrender of a stock certificate representing Waves Common Stock (a “Waves Stock Certificates”) to MRI for exchange, MRI shall within 5 days of Closing deliver to the holder of such Waves Stock Certificate a certificate representing the number of shares of MRI Common Stock that such holder has the right to receive pursuant to Section 2.1. All Waves Stock Certificates so surrendered shall be cancelled. Until surrendered as a contemplated by this Section 2.2, each Waves Stock Certificate shall be deemed, from and after the Effective Time, to represent only the right to receive the Merger Consideration in accordance with this Agreement.

     (b) No Further Rights in Stock. All shares of MRI Common Stock issued upon the surrender for exchange of Certificates in accordance with the terms of Sections 2.1 and 2.2 hereof (including any cash paid pursuant to this Article II) shall be deemed to have been issued and paid in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to the shares of Waves Common Stock theretofore represented by such Certificates, and there shall be no further registration of transfer on the stock transfer books of the Surviving Corporation of the shares of Waves Common Stock represented by such Certificates which were outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time. If, after the Effective Time, any such Certificates are presented to MRI or the Surviving Corporation for any reason, they shall be canceled and exchanged as provided in this Article II, except as otherwise provided by law.

     (c) Withholding of Tax. MRI shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the applicable amount of the Merger Consideration otherwise issuable to, and any cash payment in lieu of fractional shares otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement to, any former holder of Waves Common Stock such amounts as MRI (or any Affiliate thereof) are required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under the Code, or any provision of state, local or foreign Tax law. To the extent that amounts are so withheld by MRI (or any Affiliate thereof), such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the former holder of Waves Common Stock in respect of whom such deduction and withholding was made by MRI (or any Affiliate thereof).

     (d) Lost, Stolen or Destroyed Certificates. In the event any Certificate

4

evidencing shares of Waves Common Stock shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit setting forth that fact by the Person claiming such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate and, if required by MRI the posting by such Person of a bond in such reasonable amount as MRI may direct as indemnity against any claim that may be made against MRI, or the Surviving Corporation, MRI shall pay to such Person the applicable amount of the Merger Consideration with respect to such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate.

Section 2.3 Restrictive Legends. The shares of MRI Common Stock issued in accordance with this Agreement will be “restricted securities,” as defined under the Securities Act and Rule 144 promulgated thereunder, and may only be sold or otherwise transferred pursuant to an effective registration statement under the 1933 Act or an exemption from the registration requirements of the 1933 Act. It is understood that the certificates evidencing the shares of MRI Common Stock issued in connection with the Merger will bear substantially the following legend:

“THESE SECURITIES HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED. THEY MAY NOT BE SOLD, OFFERED FOR SALE, PLEDGED, OR HYPOTHECATED IN THE ABSENCE OF A REGISTRATION STATEMENT IN EFFECT WITH RESPECT TO THE SECURITIES UNDER SUCH ACT OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY THAT SUCH REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED OR UNLESS SOLD PURSUANT TO RULE 144 OF SUCH ACT.”

Section 2.4. Treatment of Waves Stock Options

     All Waves Options that either have not been exercised as of the Closing or that are not being exercised immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be cancelled and extinguished immediately prior to the Effective Time and no consideration shall be issued in exchange therefor. Prior to the Effective Time, Waves shall take all actions and obtain all consents that are necessary to give effect to the transactions contemplated by this Section 2.4.

Section 2.5. Certain Adjustments

     If between the date hereof and the Effective Time, the outstanding shares of Waves Common Stock or of MRI Common Stock shall be changed into a different number of shares by reason of any reclassification, recapitalization, split-up, combination or exchange of shares, or any dividend payable in stock or other securities shall be declared thereon with a record date within such period, the Exchange Ratio (and any other references herein to a price per share of MRI Common Stock) shall be adjusted accordingly to provide the same economic effect as contemplated by this Agreement prior to such reclassification, recapitalization, split-up, combination, exchange or dividend.

     Section 7.5. Defense of Third Party Claims.

     The obligations and liabilities of any party to indemnify any other party under Sections 7.4 and 7.5 with respect to Claims or Damages relating to or arising from third parties (a “Third Party Claim”), shall be subject to the following terms and conditions:

     (a)    The party or parties to be indemnified hereunder (whether one or more, the “Indemnified Party”) will give the other party or parties (whether one or more, the “Indemnifying Party”) prompt written notice of any such Third Party Claim, and the Indemnifying Party may undertake the defense thereof by representatives chosen by it upon written notice to the Indemnified Party provided within 20 days of receiving notice of such Third Party Claim (or sooner if the nature of the Third Party Claim so requires). Failure of the Indemnified Party to give such notice shall not affect the Indemnifying Party’s duty or obligations under Sections 7.4 and 7.5, except to the extent the Indemnifying Party is prejudiced thereby. The Indemnified Party shall make available to the Indemnifying Party or its representatives all records and other materials required by them and in the possession or under the control of the Indemnified Party, for the use of the Indemnifying Party and its representatives in defending any such Claim, and shall in other respects give reasonable cooperation in such defense.

     (b)    If the Indemnifying Party, within 20 days after notice of any such Third Party Claim (or sooner if the nature of the Third Party Claim so requires), fails to defend such Third Party Claim actively and in good faith, then the Indemnified Party will (upon further notice) have the right to undertake the defense, compromise or settlement of such Third Party Claim, or consent to the entry of a judgment with respect thereto, and the Indemnifying Party shall thereafter have no right to challenge the Indemnified Party’s defense, compromise or settlement thereof.

32

     (c)    Notwithstanding anything in this Article VII to the contrary (i) if there is a reasonable possibility, in the Indemnified Party’s opinion, that a Third Party Claim may adversely affect the Indemnified Party other than as a result of money damages or other money payments, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to defend, compromise or settle such Third Party Claim (provided that the Indemnified Party shall not settle or consent to any judgment without first obtaining the consent of the Indemnifying Party, which shall not be unreasonably withheld), and (ii) the Indemnifying Party shall not, without the written consent of the Indemnified Party, settle or compromise any Third Party Claim or consent to the entry of any judgment which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or the plaintiff to the Indemnified Party of an unconditional release from all liability in respect of such Third Party Claim.

     Section 7.6. Payment; Arbitration.

     Upon the occurrence of a Claim or Damages, other than a Third Party Claim, for which indemnification is believed to be due under this Article VII, the Indemnified Party shall provide notice of such Claim or Damages to the Indemnifying Party, stating the circumstances giving rise to the Claim or Damages, specifying the amount of the Claim or Damages and making a request for any payment then believed due. Any such claim for indemnification shall be conclusive against the Indemnifying Party in all respects 20 days after receipt by the Indemnifying Party of such notice, unless within such period the Indemnifying Party sends the Indemnified Party a notice disputing the propriety of such claim. Such notice of dispute shall describe the basis for such objection and the amount of the claim as to which the Indemnifying Party does not believe should be subject to indemnification. Upon receipt of any such notice of objection, both the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party shall use their reasonable best efforts to cooperate and arrive at a mutually acceptable resolution of such dispute within the next 30 days. If a mutually acceptable resolution cannot be reached between the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party with such 30-day period, either party may submit the dispute for resolution by a panel of three arbitrators selected from the panels of arbitrators of the American Arbitration Association in a city mutually selected by the Indemnifying Party and Indemnified Party (or, if no city can be mutually agreed upon within 15 days, then in Raleigh, North Carolina); provided, however, that (i) one arbitrator shall be selected by the Indemnified Party, the second arbitrator shall be selected by the Indemnifying Party, and the third arbitrator shall be selected by the two previously selected arbitrators and (ii) in all respects, such panel shall be governed by the American Arbitration Association’s then existing Commercial Arbitration Rules. If it is finally determined that all or a portion of such claim amount is owed to the Indemnified Party, the Indemnifying Party shall, within 10 days of such determination and subject to the limitations set forth herein, pay the Indemnified Party such amount owed, together with interest from the date that the Indemnified Party initially requested such payment until the date of actual payment, at an annual rate equal to the prime interest rate then generally in effect on the date of payment as set forth in The Wall Street Journal.

33

Section 7.7. Survival of Representations and Warranties

     (c) Each party hereto shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to refrain from taking any action, or entering into any transaction, which would cause any of its representations or warranties contained in this Agreement to be untrue in any material respect or which would result in a material breach of any covenant made by it in this Agreement.

Section 7.9. No Solicitation

     (a) From the date of this Agreement until the Effective Time or the termination of this Agreement pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, Waves and Shareholders shall not and shall not permit any of its Subsidiaries, Affiliates, directors, officers, employees, agents or representatives, including, without limitation, any investment banker, attorney or accountant of Waves or any of its Subsidiaries (collectively, “Representatives”)

     During the Interim Period, each party hereto will promptly notify the other parties hereto of (a) the occurrence or nonoccurrence of any event the occurrence or nonoccurrence of which would be likely to cause any condition to the obligations of such party to effect the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement not to be satisfied and (b) the failure of such party to comply with any covenant or agreement to be complied with by it pursuant to this Agreement which would be likely to result in any condition to the obligations of such party to effect the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement not to be satisfied. No delivery of any notice pursuant to this Section 7.12 will cure any breach of any representation or warranty, covenant, condition or agreement of such party contained in this Agreement or otherwise limit or affect the remedies available hereunder to the party receiving such notice.
