obligations relating to the composition and qualifications of the board of

subsidiaries involving a total aggregate consideration in excess of 10%

accepted accounting principles for the most recent quarter for which
financial information is available (after taking into account the amount
of any indebtedness for borrowed money to be assumed or discharged by
Micro or any of its subsidiaries and any amounts required to be
contributed, invested or borrowed by Micro or any of its subsidiaries if
such contribution, investment or borrowing is reasonably contemplated by
Micro to be necessary within 12 months after the date of the

could be reasonably expected to reduce Micro's investment rating lower
than one grade below the ratings of Micro by ▇▇▇▇▇'▇ Investors Service
("▇▇▇▇▇'▇"), ▇▇▇▇▇ Investors Service, L.P. ("Fitch") or Standard &
Poor's Rating Group ("Standard & Poor's") immediately following the

Action (an "Approving Family Stockholder Notice"). An Approving Family
Stockholder Notice will be given by Micro to each of the Approving Family
Stockholders as soon as is practicable under the circumstances, but in no
event later than five (5) days prior to the date on which the Significant
Action is expected to occur. Micro shall be deemed to have given the required
Approving Family Stockholder Notice to each Approving Family Stockholder when

Action required to be given by the Approving Family Stockholders consistent

withholding such approval within five (5) business days from the Date of
Confirmation. For purposes of this Section 2.5(c) "Date of Confirmation"
means the day Micro confirms the actual receipt of such Approving Family
Stockholder Notice by the Family Agent and Bass, ▇▇▇▇▇ & ▇▇▇▇ PLC consistent
with the requirements of Sections 2.5 and 3.3.
(d) Approving Family Stockholder Voting Power. With respect to any
vote pursuant to Section 2.5, and as of any given date, each Approving Family

Approving Family Stockholder, plus (ii) any voting power attributed to such
Approving Family Stockholder under Exhibit A hereto.
SECTION 2.6 Other Corporate Governance Provisions; Liability Insurance.
(a) Governance by Board. Micro will be managed by or under the
direction of its Board. The bylaws of Micro shall provide that each member of
the Board, and all committees of the Board, shall have at all times full
access to the books and records of Micro and all minutes of stockholder, Board
and committee meetings, proceedings and actions and that each member of the
Board shall have the right to add items to any agenda for a meeting of the
Board. The bylaws of Micro shall also provide that during the period of time
between each regularly scheduled meeting of the Board, management decisions
requiring the immediate attention of the Board may be made with the approval
of a majority of the members of the Executive Committee; provided, however,
that the Executive Committee will not have the authority to approve any of the
following items, all of which require the approval of the Board: (i) any
action that would require the approval of the holders of a majority of the
Approving Voting Power held by the Approving Family Stockholders under Section
2.5 above or that would require approval of the holders of a majority of the
Micro Common Shares under applicable law or under the certificate of
incorporation or bylaws of Micro (provided, however, that subject to
applicable law, the Board shall be entitled to delegate to the Executive
Committee the authority to negotiate and finalize actions, the general terms
of which have been approved by the Board); (ii) any acquisition with a total
aggregate consideration in excess of 2% of Micro's stockholders' equity
calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for the
most recent quarter for which financial information is available (after taking
into account the amount of any indebtedness to be assumed or discharged by
Micro or any of its subsidiaries and any amounts required to be contributed,
invested or borrowed by Micro or any of its subsidiaries); (iii) any action
outside of the ordinary course of business of Micro; or (iv) any other action
involving a material shift in policy or business strategy for the Board.
(b) Directors' Liability Insurance. Unless otherwise agreed by the
written consent of the Family Stockholders, Micro shall maintain, to the
extent commercially available at reasonable rates, for the benefit of the
directors adequate directors' liability insurance to cover the reasonably
anticipated risks associated with their positions. Micro shall enter into
contracts with directors which assure them of indemnification to the full
extent allowable by law both while they serve as directors and thereafter and
the Micro certificate of incorporation will include all applicable provisions
necessary to effect the maximum protection provided by Section 102(b)(7) of
the Delaware General Corporation Law.
SECTION 2.7 Agreement to Vote; Best Efforts.
(a) Generally. Each party to this Agreement agrees (i) to use its
best efforts to take all actions necessary to cause the Family Directors, the
Management Director and the Independent Directors to be elected or appointed
to the Board, (ii) to act in a manner consistent with the intent of this
Agreement in nominating and electing persons to be directors and in filling
any vacancy in the membership of the Board, and (iii) to take such other
necessary or appropriate actions as may be required to give effect to the

Power held by the Family Stockholders.

during the term of this Agreement, (i) the stockholders may alter, amend,
restate or repeal such bylaws or any of them, or make new bylaws, only by the
affirmative vote of the holders of 75 % of the voting power of the then
outstanding Micro Common Shares and (ii) the Board may alter, amend, restate
or repeal such bylaws or any of them, or make new bylaws, only by the
affirmative vote of three-quarters (3/4) of the members of the entire Board.
(d) No Conflicting Provisions of Certificate of Incorporation or
Bylaws. Except as may be required by applicable law, during the term of this
Agreement, the parties hereto agree to use their best efforts to prevent any
provision of Micro's certificate of incorporation or bylaws from containing
any terms inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement, and from being
amended, modified, supplemented, restated or repealed in a manner inconsistent
with the provisions of this Agreement.
SECTION 2.8 Termination. This Agreement will terminate and be of no
further force or effect on the first date on which the Family Stockholders and
their Permitted Transferees together hold beneficially less than 25,000,000
