On October 2, 2009, Parent obtained a revised equity commitment letter from STG III and STG III-A dated October 2, 2009 (the “ New STG Commitment Letter ”), pursuant to which, STG III and STG III-A, severally and not jointly (based upon their respective Pro Rata Portions (as defined in the New STG Commitment Letter)), have agreed to contribute, or cause to be contributed, to Parent, at or prior to the consummation of the Merger, immediately available funds in the amount equal to $94,032,081 and $12,472,919, respectively, in exchange for the equity securities described therein, subject to such adjustments in aggregate amounts invested as are contemplated in Exhibit A thereto.
