Okay, here's more sell based on the input and comments:
 
7) Freely-available, superior open source PHP business-solutions projects in
their next wave will not be backwards compatible to PHP4. 
8) PHP5 natively engenders coding innovation, improved security and more web
application strength.

Any good framework to develop in is going to require the advanced features
of php5, there is just no way php4 can do this well.  Probably a good
argument for an enterprise web site management team.

Based on my experience, PHP 4 will be sunsetted right around the time
none of the core developers are still using it.
