ARTICLE I
LIMITATIONS ON TRANSFER
SECTION 1.1 GENERAL RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER.

(collectively, "Transfer") any Shares, or any interest therein, except in a
transaction which (i) is specifically permitted by this Agreement and (ii)
complies with the Securities Act (as defined in Article VII hereof).
Notwithstanding the foregoing, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ shall be permitted to grant
a nontransferable pledge on Shares owned by him to RPS as security for
borrowings by ▇▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ from RPS to finance ▇▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇'▇ purchase of

other encumbrance on such Shares upon the exercise of the take-along rights set
forth in Article II hereof or the repurchase or put rights set forth in Article
IV hereof.
(b) RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL. If, at any time after the termination of
the Lock-Up Period with respect to the Sale Securities (as defined below), BT or
any Management
2
Stockholder desires to Transfer any or all of its, his or her Shares (the
Shares to be so Transferred being referred to herein as the "Sale
Securities") to a Third Party, such selling Stockholder shall first offer to
sell such Sale Securities to the Company (the "Offer"), pursuant to a written
notice (the "Notice") delivered to the Company (with a copy to Odyssey)
setting forth the number of Sale Securities such selling Stockholder proposes
to Transfer, the proposed transferee, the bona fide purchase price offered by
such transferee for, and the other terms and conditions of, such proposed
sale of the Sale Securities. The purchase price per share payable by Odyssey
or the Company (as the case may be) for such Sale Securities shall be equal
to the purchase price offered therefor by such Third Party as set forth in
the Offer. Upon its receipt of the Notice, the Company shall have thirty
(30) Business Days (the "Offer Period") within which to accept the Offer to
purchase all, but not less than all, of the Sale Securities at the purchase
price and upon the terms and conditions offered by the Third Party as
specified in the Offer.
If the Company elects to accept the Offer, it shall notify the
selling Stockholder thereof in writing prior to 11:59 p.m., New York City time,
on the last day of the Offer Period, and the Company and the selling Stockholder
shall close the sale of the Sale Securities on the tenth Business Day following
delivery of such written acceptance of the Offer, at which closing (i) the
Company shall pay to the selling Stockholder in cash an amount equal to the
aggregate purchase price for the Sale Securities as provided above and (ii) the
selling Stockholder shall deliver to the Company a certificate or certificates
representing the Sale Securities, duly endorsed for transfer with executed stock
powers attached.
If, however, (A) the Company does not notify the selling
Stockholder within the Offer Period of its election to purchase all of the Sale
Securities pursuant to the Offer or if the Company notifies such selling
Stockholder in writing that it declines to accept the Offer or (B) if the
Company fails to consummate the closing of the sale of the Sale Securities as
aforesaid while the Selling Stockholder was prepared and willing to do so, then
the selling Stockholder shall have the right to Transfer (subject to such
selling Stockholder's prior delivery to the Company of such certifications and
opinions of counsel addressed to the Company as the Company may reasonably
request to confirm that such Transfer is made in compliance with the Securities
Act and applicable state securities laws) all, but not less than all, of the
Sale Securities
3
only to the Third Party transferee identified in the Offer and only for the
price and upon the terms and conditions set forth in the Offer, within the
180 day period immediately following the later of (1) the date of the
Company's failure to close the purchase of the Sale Securities as described
in clause (B) above and (2) the earlier of (x) the date of the Company's
delivery of written notice to the selling Stockholder pursuant to which the
Company expressly declines to accept the Offer and (y) the expiration of the
Offer Period. If, however, all of the Sale Securities are not so Transferred
within such 180-day period, such Sale Securities shall once again be subject
to the rights of first refusal set forth in this Section 1.1(b).
The rights of the Company set forth in this Section 1.1(b) shall
be in addition to, and not exclusive of, the Company's repurchase rights set
forth in Article IV hereof. The Company may from time to time assign its rights
under this Section 1.1(b), in whole or in part, to Odyssey.
(c) CERTAIN PERMITTED TRANSFERS. (i) Subject to paragraph (ii) of
this Section 1.1(c), each Management Stockholder may Transfer its, his or her
Shares (but not Options) to a Permitted Transferee at any time more than
eighteen (18) months after the date of acquisition of such Shares.
(ii) Not less than 15 Business Days prior to any proposed
Transfer of any Shares or any interest therein by a Management Stockholder to
any Permitted Transferee (other than a transfer upon death of a Management
Stockholder or the individual stockholder of a Corporate Management
Stockholder), the holder of such Shares shall give written notice to the Company
of such holder's intention to effect such Transfer, setting forth the manner and
circumstances of the proposed transfer in reasonable detail. Any Transfer to a
Permitted Transferee may be effected only if the Company shall have received,
together with the notice referred to above, if any: (A) if requested by the
Company, an opinion of counsel addressed to, and reasonably satisfactory to, the
Company to the effect that the proposed Transfer of Shares or such interest
therein may be effected without registration under the Securities Act and
applicable state securities laws, (B) if requested by the Company, certificates
and representation letters from such Stockholder and Permitted Transferee that
contain representations in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the
Company to ensure compliance with the provisions of the Securities Act and
applicable state securities laws, and (C) such letters and other
4
documentation in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Company
from each such Permitted Transferee stating such Permitted Transferee's
agreement to be bound by the terms of this Agreement (including, without
limitation, the Company's and Odyssey's rights with respect to the Shares
transferred to such Permitted Transferee). Each certificate evidencing
Shares or interests therein transferred as provided in this Section 1.1(c)
shall bear the legend set forth in Section 9.1 of this Agreement.
(d) NON-COMPLYING TRANSFERS VOID. Any attempt to Transfer any Shares
or any interest therein which is not in compliance with this Agreement shall be
null and void, and neither the Company nor any transfer agent shall give any

ARTICLE II
TAKE-ALONG SALE
SECTION 2.1 TAKE-ALONG RIGHT. If the Odyssey Holders intend to
privately Transfer to any Third Party (the "Purchaser") 79% or more of the
Shares held by them, then each other Stockholder shall be required, at the
election of Odyssey, to Transfer to such Purchaser (a "Take-Along Sale") such
number of Shares then held by such other Stockholder ("Take-Along Shares") as
bears the same relation to the total number of Shares then held by such
Stockholder as the number of Shares the Odyssey Holders propose to Transfer
to such Purchaser bears to the total number of Shares then held by the
Odyssey Holders, for the same consideration, and on the same terms and
conditions, if any, upon which the Odyssey Holders propose to dispose of
their Shares. In the event of a Take-Along Sale, Options which are not
theretofore exercisable shall become exercisable by reason of such
transaction only to the extent provided in the instrument evidencing the
grant of such Options. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent, if any,
the Purchaser with respect to any Take-Along Sale consents thereto, Shares
held by any Management Stockholder shall not be subject to the take-along
rights provided in this Article II.
SECTION 2.2 NOTICE. The Odyssey Holders shall deliver to each other
Stockholder written notice (the "Take-Along Notice") of any sale to be made
pursuant to Section 2.1 above, which notice shall set forth the consideration
to be paid by the Purchaser for each Share and the other terms and
5
conditions, if any, of such transaction. Within 15 Business Days after the
date of the Take-Along Notice, each such other Stockholder shall promptly
deliver to Odyssey certificates representing its, his or her (as appropriate)
Take-Along Shares, duly endorsed, in proper form for transfer. Pending
consummation of the Take-Along Sale, Odyssey shall promptly notify the other
Stockholders of any changes in the proposed timing for the Take-Along Sale
and any other material developments in connection therewith.
SECTION 2.3 TRANSFER. (a) If, within 120 Business Days after the date of
the Take-Along Notice, no transfer of the Take-Along Shares in accordance with
the provisions of Section 2.1 shall have been completed, Odyssey shall promptly
return to the other Stockholders, in proper form, all certificates representing
the Take-Along Shares previously delivered to Odyssey.
(b) Promptly after the consummation of the Transfer of Take-Along
Shares pursuant to Section 2.1, Odyssey shall remit or cause to be remitted
to the other Stockholders their respective consideration with respect to the
Take-Along Shares and shall furnish such other evidence of the completion and
time of completion of such Transfer and the terms and conditions, if any,
thereof as may reasonably be requested by such Stockholders.
(c) The provisions of this Article II shall remain in effect,
notwithstanding any return to a Take-Along Holder of any Take-Along Shares as
provided in Section 2.3(a).
ARTICLE III
TAG-ALONG PARTICIPATION
SECTION 3.1 TAG-ALONG RIGHTS. (a) If the Odyssey Holders intend to
privately Transfer to any Third Party that is not an Affiliate of Odyssey (the
"Tag-Along Purchaser"), in one transaction or a series of transactions, Shares
constituting in the aggregate more than 50% of the total number of Original
Odyssey Shares (including any transaction subject to Article II hereof if the
Odyssey Holders do not exercise their take-along rights set forth therein in
connection with such transaction), then Odyssey shall permit each other
Stockholder, at its, his or her (as appropriate) option, to Transfer, for the
same consideration, and on the same terms and conditions, if any, upon which the
Odyssey
6
Holders intend to Transfer such Shares, a number of Shares then owned by such
Stockholder determined in accordance with Section 3.1(b) (the "Tag-Along
Shares").
(b) Each such other Stockholder shall have the right, pursuant to
Section 3.1(a), to sell pursuant to the offer by the Tag-Along Purchaser, a
number of Shares equal to the product of (A) the number of Shares to be
purchased by the Tag-Along Purchaser from the Odyssey Holders, and (B) a
fraction, the numerator of which shall be the total number of Shares owned by
such other Stockholder and the denominator of which shall be the total number of
Shares owned by the Odyssey Holders and all the Stockholders in the aggregate;
PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that, notwithstanding the foregoing limitation, RPS shall be
entitled to sell all of the Shares owned by it (or such lesser amount as is
proportionate to the amount the Odyssey Holders are selling) to the Tag-Along
Purchaser pursuant to the offer described in Section 3.1 hereof.
SECTION 3.2 NOTICE. Not less than 15 Business Days prior to any
proposed Transfer pursuant to Section 3.1, Odyssey, on behalf of the Odyssey
Holders, shall deliver to each Stockholder written notice thereof (the
"Tag-Along Notice"), which notice shall set forth the consideration to be
paid by the Tag-Along Purchaser and the other terms and conditions, if any,
of such transaction. If any Stockholder elects to Transfer some or all of the
Tag-Along Shares pursuant to Section 3.1, then such Stockholder shall so
notify Odyssey within 10 Business Days after the date of the Tag-Along
Notice, and, at Odyssey's request not less than two Business Days prior to
the proposed Transfer, such Stockholder shall deliver to Odyssey certificates
representing such Tag-Along Shares, duly endorsed, in proper form for
Transfer, together with a limited power-of-attorney authorizing Odyssey to
transfer the Tag-Along Shares to the Tag-Along Purchaser and to execute all
other documents required to be executed in connection with such transaction.
SECTION 3.3 TRANSFER. (a) If, within 120 Business Days after delivery
by such Stockholder to Odyssey of the certificates and related documents
described in Section 3.2, no transfer of the Shares held by the Odyssey
Holders and Tag-Along Shares in accordance with the provisions of this
Article III shall have been completed, then Odyssey shall promptly return to
such Stockholder, in proper form, all certificates representing the Tag-Along
Shares and the limited power-of-attorney previously delivered by such
Stockholder to Odyssey.
7
(b) Promptly after the consummation of the transfer of the Tag-Along
Shares pursuant to Section 3.1, Odyssey shall remit or cause to be remitted to
each Stockholder the consideration with respect to the Tag-Along Shares so
transferred and shall furnish such other evidence of the completion of such
transfer and the terms and conditions (if any) thereof as may reasonably be
requested by such Stockholder.
(c) The provisions of this Article III shall remain in effect,
notwithstanding any return to any Stockholder of Tag-Along Shares as provided in
Section 3.3(a).

(a) Upon the occurrence during the term of this Agreement of any of
the events set forth in clause (i), (ii), (iii) or (iv) below (each, a
"Termination Event"), the Company may elect, by delivering the notice required
under Section 4.1(e), to require each Management Stockholder to sell to the
Company all of the Shares owned by such Management Stockholder, in accordance

(iv) the termination by the Company of such Management
Stockholder's employment with the Company (and any subsidiary or affiliate of
the Company) without Cause.
The Termination Events specified in clauses (i) through (iv) of
this Section 4.1(a) shall be deemed to
8
have occurred with respect to a Corporate Management Stockholder upon the
occurrence of such respective events with respect to the individual
stockholder of such Corporate Management Stockholder.
(b) The Repurchase Price for each Share purchased in connection with
the occurrence of an event specified in Sections 4.1(a)(i) or (iv) shall be
equal to Fair Market Value of such Share as of the date of the Termination
Event, unless otherwise provided in Section 4.1(d) hereof.
(c) Unless otherwise agreed to by Odyssey, the Repurchase Price for
each Share purchased in connection with the occurrence of an event specified in
Sections 4.1(a)(ii) or (iii) shall be equal to the lower of (x) the price per
Share paid by the Management Stockholder for such Share or (y) Fair Market Value
of such Share as of the date of the Termination Event, unless otherwise provided
in Section 4.1(d) hereof; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that from and after the fifth
anniversary of the date of purchase of such Share by the Management Stockholder,
such Repurchase Price shall be equal to Fair Market Value of such Share as of
the date of the Termination Event, unless otherwise provided in Section 4.1(d)
hereof.
(d) In the case of Shares acquired pursuant to the exercise of an
Option that are to be repurchased pursuant to Article IV hereof by reason of the
occurrence of a Termination Event, the Fair Market Value per Share shall be
determined for purposes of Section 4.1(b) and clause (y) and the proviso of
4.1(c) as of the later of (i) the date of such Termination Event or (ii) the
date which occurs immediately after the expiration of 6 months after the date of
exercise of such Option (the later of (i) and (ii) referred to herein as the
"Option Share Measurement Date").
(e) Upon the occurrence of any Termination Event with respect to any
Management Stockholder, the Company shall deliver written notice (the
"Repurchase Notice") to such Management Stockholder within 60 days after such
occurrence (or, in the case of Shares acquired pursuant to the exercise of an
Option, within 60 days after the Option Share Measurement Date), specifying
whether the Company elects to exercise its right to require such Management
Stockholder to sell all of its, his or her Shares to the Company pursuant to
this Section 4.1. If the Company elects to exercise its right to require such
sale, the Company shall specify the Repurchase Price for each such Share in the
Repurchase Notice and consummate such transactions in accordance with Section
4.2.
9
(f) For purposes of this Agreement, the Fair Market Value of a Share
shall be determined in accordance with Section 4.3.
SECTION 4.2 METHOD OF REPURCHASE. (a) If the Company elects to exercise
its right to require any Management Stockholder to sell Shares pursuant to
Section 4.1, the Shares subject to repurchase (collectively, the "Surrendered
Shares") shall be repurchased on a date (the "Repurchase Date") no later than 60
days after the date of the Repurchase Notice. On the Repurchase Date, the
Management Stockholders selling such Surrendered Shares (collectively, the
"Sellers") shall deliver to the Company the certificate or certificates
representing the Shares owned by such Sellers on such date, against delivery by
the Company to such Sellers of the Repurchase Price in cash; PROVIDED, HOWEVER,
that if the Company in good faith determines that its ability to pay all or any
portion of the Repurchase Price in cash may be restricted or limited under debt
or other agreements to which the Company or any of its subsidiaries is a party,
the Company shall issue and deliver a promissory note (a "Payment Note") with
the terms set forth in Section 4.2(b). All certificates for Surrendered Shares
shall be duly endorsed in favor of the Company by the Seller in whose name such
certificate or certificates is registered or accompanied by a duly executed
stock or security assignment in favor of the Company with the signature(s)
thereon guaranteed by a commercial bank or trust company or a member of a
national securities exchange or the NASD. If any Seller shall fail to deliver
such certificate or certificates to the Company within the time required, the
Company shall cause its books and records to show that the Surrendered Shares
are bound by the provisions of this Section 4.2 and that the Surrendered Shares,
until transferred to the Company, shall not be entitled to any proxy, dividend
or other rights from the date by which such certificate or certificates should
have been delivered to the Company.
(b) Each Payment Note shall:
(i) be payable to the order of the Seller,
(ii) be issued and dated as of the Repurchase Date applicable to
the transfer of the Surrendered Shares by such Seller,
(iii) be in a principal amount equal to that portion of the
Repurchase Price of such Surrendered Shares that the Company has
determined
10
it is unable to pay in cash pursuant to Section 4.2(a),
(iv) mature on the earliest to occur of: (A) the first
anniversary of the latest date of final maturity of any Indebtedness
of the Company, (B) the tenth anniversary of the Repurchase Date
applicable thereto, and (C) a sale of all or substantially all of the
assets of the Company, a merger, consolidation, exchange or similar
combination of the Company with another entity (unless the Company is
the surviving entity) or the dissolution, liquidation, bankruptcy or
insolvency of the Company,
(v) be secured by a pledge of the repurchased Shares, and
(vi) provide for the acceleration of payment thereof, to the
extent permitted by applicable debt and other agreements, so as to
provide level amortization over a five year period.
Each Payment Note shall bear interest in respect of the unpaid
principal amount of such Payment Note from the Repurchase Date to the maturity
date thereof at the rate of interest publicly announced by Bankers Trust (or the
bank which is then acting as the agent bank for the Company) in New York City
from time to time as its Prime Rate, compounded semi-annually. Interest shall
be payable semi-annually in cash, to the extent permitted under debt or other
agreements to which the Company or any of its Affiliates is a party, but
otherwise shall accrue and be payable at maturity or shall be payable
semi-annually in additional Payment Notes. Each Payment Note shall be
expressly subordinated to all debt of the Company. Payments on the Payment
Notes shall be made in equal proportion among all the holders of Payment Notes.
(c) In the event (i) the Odyssey Holders have disposed of Shares
constituting more than 33 1/3% of the total number of Original Odyssey Shares
and (ii) the Company consummates a public offering of its common stock that is
registered under the Securities Act, the Company shall in good faith attempt to
repay (out of funds, if any, available for such purpose as determined by the
Board in its sole discretion, after taking into consideration the Company's then
current and anticipated future financial liquidity needs and such other factors
as it deems appropriate) such outstanding principal amount of Payment Notes held
by each
11
former Management Stockholder as represents the Repurchase Price of the
number of Shares covered by such Payment Notes that such Management
Stockholder would have been entitled to include pursuant to Article VI hereof
in the registration statement filed by the Company in connection with such
public offering had such former Management Stockholder been a Stockholder at
the time of the filing thereof.
SECTION 4.3 DETERMINATION OF FAIR MARKET VALUE.
(a) After the Closing Date and prior to the first anniversary
thereof, the Fair Market Value per Share shall be the lesser of (i) the fair
market value thereof as determined by the Board on the basis of such factors as
the Board shall deem appropriate or (ii) the price per Share paid by Odyssey for
its Shares at the Closing, as such price shall be adjusted to reflect any
subsequent subdivision, combination or reclassification of the Shares.
(b) From and after the first anniversary of the Closing Date, the
Fair Market Value per Share shall be determined as follows: (i) if the Shares
are not listed on a national securities exchange in the United States on the
date on which the Fair Market Value per Share is to be determined, and a public
market does not otherwise exist for the Shares on such date, the Fair Market
Value per Share shall be determined by an appraisal by an independent appraiser
selected by the Company, such appraisal to be based upon such factors as such
independent appraiser shall deem appropriate, (ii) if the Shares are listed on a
national securities exchange in the United States on any date on which the Fair
Market Value per Share is to be determined, the Fair Market Value per Share
shall be deemed to be the average of the last sales price for Shares for the
five (5) trading days immediately preceding the date of determination, and (iii)
if a public market exists for the Shares on any date on which the Fair Market
Value per Share is to be determined, but the Shares are not listed on a national
securities exchange in the United States on such date, the Fair Market Value per
Share shall be deemed to be the average of the mean between the closing bid and
asked quotations in the over-the-counter market for the five (5) trading days
immediately preceding the date of determination.
12
SECTION 4.4 "PUT" RIGHTS. Within the 60-day period specified in Section
4.1(e), any Management Stockholder with respect to which or whom (as the case
may be) a Termination Event has occurred shall have the right to deliver a
written notice to the Company (the "Put Notice") requiring that the Company
repurchase all of its, his or her Shares at the Repurchase Price set forth in
Section 4.1. The closing of such repurchase shall occur within 60 days of the
Company's receipt of the Put Notice, at which closing the Management Stockholder
selling such Shares shall deliver to the Company the certificate or certificates
representing all such Shares, against delivery by the Company to such Management
Stockholder of the Repurchase Price in respect thereof, in cash or, as provided
in Section 4.2, in Payment Notes.
SECTION 4.5 RPS. Shares held by RPS or any Affiliate thereof shall not be
subject to the repurchase and put rights set forth in this Article IV.
ARTICLE V
PROXY; POWER OF ATTORNEY
SECTION 5.1 PROXY. Each Management Stockholder hereby irrevocably
constitutes and appoints Odyssey as its, his or her (as the case may be) proxy
coupled with an interest to attend all the meetings of the stockholders of the
Company or any continuation or adjournment thereof to be held during the term of
this Agreement and to execute written consents of stockholders, with full power
to vote and act in his or her name, place and ▇▇▇▇▇, in the same manner, to the
same extent and with the same effect that such Management Stockholder might if
personally present thereat, giving Odyssey full power of substitution.
SECTION 5.2 POWER OF ATTORNEY. Each Stockholder hereby constitutes and
appoints Odyssey as its, his or her (as appropriate) true and lawful
attorney-in-fact and agent, with full power of substitution and
resubstitution, to sign and deliver on such Stockholder's behalf all
documents and instruments (including, without limitation, stock powers and
assignments and other instruments of transfer) with respect to all of such
Stockholder's Shares and Options as such attorney-in-fact shall deem
necessary or appropriate in connection with the exercise of Odyssey's
take-along rights pursuant to Article II hereof (on a basis proportionate to
the Odyssey Holders as set forth therein) and the Company's repurchase rights
pursuant to Article IV hereof, hereby
13
granting unto said attorney-in-fact full power and authority to do, perform
and cause to be done each and every act which such attorney-in-fact may deem
necessary or appropriate in connection with the premises as fully in all
intents as such Stockholder may have done, hereby ratifying and confirming
all that said attorney-in-fact and agent may do or cause to be done by virtue
hereof.
ARTICLE VI
PIGGYBACK REGISTRATION RIGHTS
(a) Once the Odyssey Holders shall have disposed of Shares constituting
more than 33 1/3% of the total number of Original Odyssey Shares, if the Company
at any time proposes to register for Transfer under the Securities Act any
shares of common stock of the Company, the Company shall give written notice
each such time to each Management Stockholder who is then employed by the
Company or whose employment theretofore shall have been terminated for any
reason, other than termination by the Company for Cause or voluntary termination
by such Management Stockholder, of its intention to do so. Upon the written
request of any such Management Stockholder (a "Participating Management
Stockholder") given within 15 Business Days after receipt of any such notice by
such Management Stockholder (stating the amount of Shares to be disposed of by
the Participating Management Stockholder), the Company shall include the Shares
intended to be disposed of in a registration statement under the Securities Act
so as to permit the disposition by the Participating Management Stockholder of
the Shares so registered; PROVIDED that the managing underwriter or underwriters
(if any) in connection with the offering contemplated by such registration
statement shall have advised the Company and Odyssey that the inclusion of the
Shares proposed to be disposed of by the Participating Management Stockholders
pursuant to such registration statement will not adversely affect the offering
price per share or otherwise adversely affect the success of such offering; and
PROVIDED, FURTHER, that:
(i) if the Odyssey Holders intend to include Shares owned by them in
such registration statement, then the number of Shares which may be sold by
a Participating Management Stockholder pursuant to such registration
statement may not exceed the product of (A) the total number of Shares then
owned by such Participating Management Stockholder and (B) a fraction, the
numerator of which shall be the total
14
number of Shares intended to be disposed of by the Odyssey Holders pursuant
to such registration statement and the denominator of which shall be the
total number of Shares then owned by the Odyssey Holders; and
(ii) if such registration statement is for a primary offering by the
Company of shares of its common stock and the Odyssey Holders do not intend
to include any Shares owned by them in such registration statement, then
the number of Shares which may be sold by a Participating Management
Stockholder pursuant to such registration statement may not exceed 10% of
the total number of Shares then owned by such Participating Management
Stockholder.
(b) Notwithstanding any provision of this Article VI to the contrary, if
the registration of which the Company gives notice pursuant to Article VI(a) is
for an underwritten offering and the managing underwriter or underwriters
determine in good faith that the total amount of Shares proposed to be included
in such offering is such as to adversely affect the offering price per share or
otherwise adversely affect the success of such offering, then the Company shall
include in such registration only the amount of Shares which the Company is so
advised can be sold in such offering at the highest offer price proposed by such
underwriters as follows: (i) if such registration includes a primary
registration, (A) first, shares the Company proposed to be included in such
registration, and (B) second, Shares requested to be included in such
registration, pro rata among the holders of such Shares in proportion to the
number of Shares sought to be registered by each holder (which, in the case of a
Participating Management Stockholder, shall have been limited to the amount
permitted by paragraph (a) of this Article VI), or (ii) if such registration is
exclusively a secondary registration, then the number of Shares shall be reduced
or limited pro rata among the Participating Management Stockholder and the other
holders of Shares in proportion to the number of Shares sought to be registered
by each holder (which, in the case of a Participating Management Stockholder,
shall have been limited to the amount permitted by paragraph (a) of this Article

in such offering to the amount recommended by such managing underwriter or
underwriters.

will allow Shares owned by RPS to be included, on a pro rata basis with the
Odyssey Holders, in
15
all registration statements covering Shares owned by the Odyssey Holders,
subject to such limitations as the underwriter(s), if any, acting on behalf
of the Company or the Odyssey Holders in connection with any such
registration statement may advise; PROVIDED, that if the managing underwriter
or underwriters (if any) in connection with the offering contemplated by such
registration statement shall have advised Odyssey that the inclusion of the
Shares proposed to be disposed of by RPS pursuant to such registration
statement will adversely affect the offering price per share or otherwise
adversely affect the success of such offering, Odyssey and RPS shall in good
faith consider such underwriter's advice and RPS shall in good faith consider
waiving its rights under this Article VI(c) such as not to jeopardize or
obstruct the contemplated offering.
(d) All customary, reasonable and necessary expenses in connection with
the preparation of any registration statement and related prospectus with
respect to which the Management Stockholders have been granted registration
rights pursuant to this Article VI, including, without limitation, (i) any
accounting fees incurred by the Company (including the expenses of any audit
and/or "comfort" letter) and filing fees (including expenses associated with
filings required to be made with the Securities and Exchange Commission and the
NASD), (ii) "blue sky" fees and expenses, (iii) printing, engraving and
duplicating expenses of the Company, (iv) transfer agent and listing fees and
(v) the reasonable fees and expenses of not more than one firm of counsel
representing all Stockholders (but not including fees and disbursements of
accountants or financial experts retained by any Management Stockholder,
underwriting discounts and commissions attributable to the Shares of
Participating Management Stockholders, or the fees of any "qualified independent
underwriter" required pursuant to the rules of the NASD as a result of the
Company's relationship with any Stockholder) shall be borne by the Company.
(e) The Company hereby covenants and agrees to grant (i) to the Odyssey
Holders customary demand and piggy-back registration rights and (ii) to RPS the
same piggy-back registration rights, on a pro rata basis, as are granted to
Odyssey, and to enter into registration rights agreements with Odyssey and RPS,
respectively, with respect thereto within 90 days following the Closing Date.
