2. Understanding of the Parties. The Parties acknowledge and agree that certain undertakings contemplated by the Second Amendment, including, without limitation, the mutual provision and review of due diligence materials, must be completed to the mutual satisfaction of the Parties as a condition precedent to the filing of the amendment of the Registration Statement and for the avoidance of doubt, the Purchaser’s obligations to use reasonable best efforts to file such amendment shall be subject to the satisfactory completion of such undertakings.

3. Public Announcement. As soon as reasonably practicable, and in any event no later than the second (2^nd) Business Day following the execution of this Third Amendment, the Parties shall mutually agree upon and, at a time when Nasdaq is closed, issue a mutual press release announcing the execution of this Third Amendment (the “Press Release”). Promptly after the issuance of the Press Release, the Purchaser shall file a current report on Form 8-K (the “Filing”) with the Press Release and a description of this Third Amendment as required by Federal Securities Laws, which the Company shall review, comment upon and approve (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) prior to filing (with the Company reviewing, commenting upon and approving such Filing in any event no later than the third (3^rd) Business Day after the execution of this Third Amendment).

4. Miscellaneous. Except as expressly provided in this Third Amendment, all of the terms and provisions in the Merger Agreement and the Ancillary Documents are and shall remain unchanged and in full force and effect, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth therein. This Third Amendment does not constitute, directly or by implication, an amendment or waiver of any provision of the Merger Agreement or any Ancillary Document or any rights under either thereof, or any other right, remedy, power or privilege of any party, except as expressly set forth herein. Any reference to the Agreement in the Agreement or any other agreement, document, instrument or certificate entered into or issued in connection therewith shall hereinafter mean the Merger Agreement, as amended by this Third Amendment (or as the Agreement may be further amended or modified after the date hereof in accordance with the terms thereof). The Agreement, as amended by this Third Amendment, and the documents or instruments attached hereto or thereto or referenced herein or therein, constitutes the entire agreement between the parties with respect to the subject matter of the Agreement, and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings, both oral and written, between the parties with respect to its subject matter. If any provision of the Merger Agreement is materially different from or inconsistent with any provision of this Third Amendment, the provision of this Third Amendment shall control, and the provision of the Merger Agreement shall, to the extent of such difference or inconsistency, be disregarded. Sections 10.1 through 10.10, 10.12 and 10.13 of the Merger Agreement are hereby incorporated herein by reference as if fully set forth herein, and such provisions apply to this Third Amendment as if all references to the “Agreement” contained therein were instead references to this Third Amendment.
