        (c)   Subject to Section 6.3(d) hereof, in the event of (i) any request by the SEC or any other federal or state governmental authority during the period of effectiveness of the Registration Statement for amendments or supplements to a Registration Statement or related Prospectus or for additional information; (ii) the issuance by the SEC or any other federal or state governmental authority of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of a Registration Statement or the initiation of any proceedings for that purpose; (iii) the receipt by Parent of any notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification or exemption from qualification of any of the Registrable Shares for sale in any jurisdiction or the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose or (iv) any event or circumstance that necessitates the making of any changes in the Registration Statement or Prospectus, or any document incorporated or deemed to be incorporated therein by reference, so that, in the case of the Registration Statement, it will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and that in the case of the Prospectus, it will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, then Parent shall deliver a notice in writing to VPVP (the "Suspension Notice") to the effect of the foregoing and, upon receipt of such Suspension Notice, VPVP shall refrain from selling any Registrable Shares pursuant to the Registration Statement (a "Suspension") until VPVP's receipt of copies of a supplemented or amended Prospectus prepared and filed by Parent, or until it is advised in writing by Parent that the current Prospectus may be used. In the event of any Suspension, Parent shall use its commercially reasonable efforts, consistent with the best interests of Parent and its stockholders, to cause the use of the Prospectus so suspended to be resumed as soon as reasonably practicable after the delivery of a Suspension Notice to VPVP.

        (d)   In the event VPVP is prohibited from selling Registrable Shares under the Registration Statement as a result of Suspensions on more than two (2) occasions of more than forty-five (45) days each in any twelve- (12)-month period, Parent shall pay to VPVP liquidated damages in an amount equal to 1.0% of the total aggregate purchase price of the Registrable Shares registered on such Registration Statement then held by VPVP if, as a result of such Suspensions, VPVP is prohibited from selling Registrable Shares under such Registration Statement for a period that exceeds sixty (60) consecutive days or one hundred twenty (120) days in the aggregate in any twelve- (12)-month period and for each thirty- (30)-day period thereafter during which such prohibition continues; provided, however, that in no event shall Parent be obligated to pay more than 1.0% of the total aggregate purchase price of the Registrable Shares registered on such Registration Statement then held by VPVP in any thirty- (30)-day period.

        (e)   In the event of a sale of Registrable Shares by VPVP under the Registration Statement, VPVP must also deliver to Parent's transfer agent, with a copy to Parent, a Certificate of Subsequent Sale substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit C, so that the Registrable Shares may be properly transferred.

        6.4   Indemnification.    For the purpose of this Section 6.4, the term "Registration Statement" shall include the Prospectus, any preliminary or final prospectus, exhibit, supplement or amendment included in or relating to the Registration Statement referred to in Section 6.1 hereof, and the term "Rules and Regulations" shall mean the rules and regulations promulgated under the Act.

        (a)   Indemnification by Parent.    Parent agrees to indemnify and hold harmless VPVP and each Person, if any, who controls VPVP within the meaning of the Act, against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses to which VPVP or such controlling person may become subject, under the Act, the Exchange Act, or any other federal or state statutory law or regulation insofar as such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses (or actions in respect thereof as contemplated below) arise out of or are based upon (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in the Registration Statement, including the Prospectus,

financial statements and schedules, and all other documents filed as a part thereof, as amended at the time of effectiveness of the Registration Statement, including any information deemed to be a part thereof as of the time of effectiveness pursuant to paragraph (b) of Rule 430A, or pursuant to Rule 434 of the Rules and Regulations, or the Prospectus, in the form first filed with the SEC pursuant to Rule 424(b) of the Rules and Regulations, or filed as part of the Registration Statement at the time of effectiveness if no Rule 424(b) filing is required (the "Prospectus"), or any amendment or supplement thereto; (ii) the omission or alleged omission to state in any of them a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements in any of them, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading or (iii) any failure of Parent to perform its obligations under this Agreement, and shall reimburse VPVP and each such controlling Person for any legal and other expenses as such expenses are reasonably incurred by VPVP or such controlling Person in connection with investigating, defending, settling, compromising or paying any such loss, claim, damage, liability, expense or action; provided, however, that Parent shall not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage, liability or expense arises out of or is based upon (i) an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus or any amendment or supplement of the Registration Statement or Prospectus in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to Parent by or on behalf of VPVP expressly for use in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus or (ii) the failure of VPVP to comply with the covenants and agreements contained in Section 6.3 hereof respecting resale of Registrable Shares or (iii) any untrue statement or omission of a material fact in any Prospectus that is corrected in any subsequent Prospectus that was delivered to VPVP before the pertinent sale or sales by VPVP.

        (b)   Indemnification by VPVP.    VPVP agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Parent, each of its directors, each of its officers who sign the Registration Statement and each Person, if any, who controls Parent within the meaning of the Act, against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses to which Parent, each of its directors, each of its officers who sign the Registration Statement or controlling Person may become subject, under the Act, the Exchange Act, or any other federal or state statutory law or regulation insofar as such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses (or actions in respect thereof as contemplated below) arise out of or are based upon (i) any failure on the part of VPVP to comply with the covenants and agreements contained in Section 6.3 hereof respecting the sale of the Registrable Shares or (ii) any untrue or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement to the Registration Statement or Prospectus, or the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to Parent by or on behalf of VPVP expressly for use therein; provided, however, that VPVP shall not be liable for any such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission of which VPVP has delivered to Parent in writing a correction at least five (5) Business Days before the occurrence of the transaction from which such loss was incurred, and VPVP shall reimburse Parent, each of its directors, each of its officers who signed the Registration Statement or controlling person for any legal and other expense reasonably incurred by Parent, each of its directors, each of its officers who signed the Registration Statement or controlling person in connection with investigating, defending, settling, compromising or paying any such loss, claim, damage, liability, expense or action for which such person is entitled to be indemnified in accordance with this Section 6.4(b).

        (c)   Indemnification Procedure.

          (i)  Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 6.4 of notice of the threat or commencement of any action, such indemnified party shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against an indemnifying party under this Section 6.4, promptly notify the indemnifying party in writing of the claim; but the omission so to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability that it may have to any indemnified party for contribution or otherwise under the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 6.4 except to the extent it is materially prejudiced as a result of such failure.

         (ii)  In case any such action is brought against any indemnified party and such indemnified party seeks or intends to seek indemnity from an indemnifying party, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate in, and, to the extent that it may wish, jointly with all other indemnifying parties similarly notified, to assume the defense thereof; provided, however, that if the defendants in any such action include both the indemnified party and the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded that there may be a conflict between the positions of the indemnifying party and the indemnified party in conducting the defense of any such action or that there may be legal defenses available to it or other indemnified parties that are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party, the indemnified party or parties shall have the right to select separate counsel to assume such legal defenses and to otherwise participate in the defense of such action on behalf of such indemnified party or parties. Upon receipt of notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to assume the defense of such action, the indemnifying party shall not be liable to such indemnified party under this Section 6.4 for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof unless:

        (1)   the indemnified party shall have employed such counsel in connection with the assumption of legal defenses in accordance with the proviso to the preceding sentence (it being understood, however, that the indemnifying party shall not be liable for the expenses of more than one (1) separate counsel, approved by such indemnifying party representing all of the indemnified parties who are parties to such action); or

        (2)   the indemnifying party shall not have counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party to represent the indemnified party within a reasonable time after notice of commencement of action, in each of which cases the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel shall be at the expense of the indemnifying party. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 6.4, (A) with respect to claims made pursuant to clause (i) of Section 6.4(b) hereof, VPVP shall not be liable for any indemnification obligation under this Agreement in excess of the amount of net proceeds received by VPVP from the sale of the Registrable Shares and (B) with respect to claims made pursuant to clause (ii) of Section 6.4(b) hereof, VPVP shall not be liable for any indemnification obligation under this Agreement in excess of the amount of net proceeds received by VPVP from the sale of the Registrable Shares giving rise to such liability.

        (d)   Contribution.

          (i)  If a claim for indemnification under this Section 6.4 is unavailable to an indemnified party (by reason of public policy or otherwise), then each indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses referred to in this Agreement, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party and indemnified party in connection with the actions, statements or omissions that resulted in such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses as well as any

11

---

other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of such indemnifying party and indemnified party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any action in question, including any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission of a material fact, has been taken or made by, or relates to information supplied by, such indemnifying party or indemnified party, and the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such action, statement or omission. The amount paid or payable by a party as a result of any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth in this Section 6.4, any reasonable attorneys' or other reasonable fees or expenses incurred by such party in connection with any proceeding to the extent such party would have been indemnified for such fees or expenses if the indemnification provided for in this Section 6.4 was available to such party in accordance with its terms.

         (ii)  The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 6.4 were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation that does not take into account the equitable considerations referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 6.4, (A) with respect to claims made pursuant to clause (i) of Section 6.4(b) hereof, VPVP shall not be liable to contribute any amount in excess of the amount of net proceeds received by VPVP from the sale of the Registrable Shares and (B) with respect to claims made pursuant to clause (ii) of Section 6.4(b) hereof, VPVP shall not be liable to contribute any amount in excess of (x) the amount by which the net proceeds received by VPVP from the sale of the Registrable Shares giving rise to such liability exceeds (y) the amount of any damages that VPVP has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No party to this Agreement guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any other party to this Agreement who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

        6.5   Termination of Conditions and Obligations.    The restrictions imposed by Section 6.3 hereof upon the transferability of the Registrable Shares shall cease and terminate as to any particular number of Registrable Shares upon the passage of two (2) years from the Measure Date or at such time as an opinion of counsel satisfactory in form and substance to Parent shall have been rendered to the effect that such conditions are not necessary in order to comply with the Act.

        6.6   Rule 144.    For a period commencing on the date hereof and ending on the last day of the Registration Period, Parent agrees with VPVP to:

        (a)   comply with the requirements of Rule 144(c) under the Act with respect to current public information about Parent; and

        (b)   file with the SEC in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of Parent under the Act and the Exchange Act (at any time it is subject to such reporting requirements).

        Section 7.    Miscellaneous.

        7.1   Legends.

        (a)   In addition to any legends required by law, until the earlier to occur of (i) the termination of this Agreement and (ii) such time as all VPVP Shares have been sold pursuant to (A) an effective registration or (B) pursuant to Rule 144 promulgated under the Act, the certificates representing the Warrant Shares shall bear the following legends:

"THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE ARE SUBJECT TO CERTAIN RESTRICTIONS ON VOTING AND TRANSFER SET FORTH IN A

THE SECURITIES MAY NOT BE OFFERED FOR SALE, SOLD, TRANSFERRED, ASSIGNED, PLEDGED OR HYPOTHECATED IN THE ABSENCE OF AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT FOR THE SECURITIES UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT EXCEPT IN COMPLIANCE WITH RULE 144 PROMULGATED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR IN THE EVENT THAT NEW ATHLETICS, INC. (THE "COMPANY") SHALL HAVE RECEIVED AN OPINION FROM COUNSEL REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY THAT REGISTRATION OF SUCH SECURITIES UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT AND UNDER THE PROVISIONS OF APPLICABLE FEDERAL AND STATE SECURITIES LAWS IS NOT REQUIRED."

        (b)   In addition to any legends required by law or the Affiliate Agreement entered into between Parent and VPVP pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, the Merger Shares shall bear the following legends:

"THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE ARE SUBJECT TO CERTAIN RESTRICTIONS ON VOTING AND TRANSFER SET FORTH IN A STOCKHOLDER AGREEMENT. A COPY OF SUCH STOCKHOLDER AGREEMENT MAY BE OBTAINED FROM THE COMPANY UPON REQUEST."

"THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE ARE HELD BY A PERSON WHO MAY BE DEEMED TO BE AN AFFILIATE OF THE ISSUER FOR PURPOSES OF RULE 145 PROMULGATED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE "SECURITIES ACT"), AND MAY BE SOLD ONLY IN COMPLIANCE WITH RULE 145, PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR PURSUANT TO A VALID EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT."

        7.2   Amendments and Waivers.    The terms and provisions of this Agreement, including the provisions of this sentence, may not be amended, modified or supplemented, and waivers of or consents to departures from the provisions hereof may not be given unless (x) approved in writing by Parent and (i) prior to the Effective Time, Trikon and (ii) after the Effective Time, a majority of the Trikon Designees then serving on the Parent Board and (y) Parent has obtained the written consent of VPVP. The waiver by any party hereto of a breach of any provision of this Agreement shall not operate or be construed as waiver of any preceding or succeeding breach and no failure by any party to exercise any right or privilege hereunder shall be deemed a waiver of such party's rights or privileges hereunder or shall be deemed a waiver of such party's rights to exercise the same at any subsequent time or times hereunder.

        7.3   Specific Performance, Etc.    Parent, Trikon and VPVP, in addition to being entitled to exercise all rights provided herein, in the New Athletics Certificate or granted by law, including recovery of damages, shall be entitled to specific performance of its rights under this Agreement. Parent, Trikon and VPVP agree that monetary damages would not be adequate compensation for any loss incurred by reason of a breach by it of the provisions of this Agreement and hereby agrees to waive the defense in any action for specific performance that a remedy at law would be adequate.

        7.5   Governing Law.    This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal law of the State of Delaware without regard to conflict of law principles that would result in the application of any law other than the law of the State of Delaware.
