available to the Indemnified Party that are not available to the Indemnifying
Party or (B) a conflict or potential conflict exists between the Indemnified
Party and the Indemnifying Party, in which case the costs of such of other
counsel shall be paid by the Indemnifying Party.

(b) Each of the Sellers is executing, delivering and
performing this Agreement notwithstanding that it is aware that the Non-Public
Information may exist and that the Non-Public Information has not been disclosed
to such Seller, and such Seller confirms and acknowledges that neither the
existence of the Non-Public Information, the substance of the Non-Public
Information nor the fact that the Non-Public Information has not been disclosed
to such Seller is material to such Seller or to its decision to execute, deliver
and perform this Agreement.
(c) Each of the Sellers does, for itself and its respective
officers, directors, stockholders, employees, agents, representatives,
successors and/or assigns, hereby: (i) fully and irrevocably waive any and all
rights, remedies and claims it would or could have, or may hereafter have,

Non-Public Information has not been disclosed to such Seller; and (ii) forever
release, discharge and dismiss any and all claims, rights, causes of action,
suits, obligations, debts, demands, arrangements, promises, liabilities,
controversies, costs, expenses, fees or damages of any kind, whether known or
unknown, accrued or not accrued, foreseen or unforeseen or matured or not
matured, that it ever had, now has, can have, or shall or may hereafter have
(including, but not limited to, any and all claims alleging violations of U.S.
federal or state securities laws, common-law fraud or deceit, breach of
fiduciary duty, negligence or otherwise), whether directly, derivatively,
representatively or in any other capacity, against any of the Purchasers or
their respective Indemnified Groups which (x) arise in connection with the
execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the purchase of the
Purchased Shares and (y) are based upon, arise from or in any way relate to,
directly or indirectly, the existence or substance of the Non-Public Information
or the fact that the Non-Public Information has not been disclosed to such
Seller.
8.4 CORPORATE GOVERNANCE.
(a) The Company shall cause one vacancy to be created on its
Board of Directors and cause to be elected to the Board of Directors, either at
a meeting of the Board of Directors or by written resolution in lieu of a
meeting of the Board of Directors, within 10 Business Days of the Closing Date,
one person designated by GAP LP, who shall initially be ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇
(the "GA DESIGNEE"). In the event that the GA Designee shall cease to serve as
director for any reason, the Company shall cause the vacancy resulting thereby
to be filled by another designee of GAP LP (who shall be deemed the GA
Designee). The Company shall also permit one non-voting observer designated by
GAP LP (the "OBSERVER") to participate in all meetings of the Board of Directors
and committees thereof.
(b) At each annual or special meeting of the stockholders
of the Company after the IPO at which directors are elected, GAP LP shall be
entitled to designate to the Board of Directors the GA Designee as a nominee to
serve as one of the directors of the Company. The Company shall cause the GA
Designee to be included in the slate of nominees recommended by the Board of
Directors to the Company's stockholders for election as directors, and the
Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause the election of the GA
Designee, including, without limitation, recommending to the stockholders of the
Company that the stockholders vote in favor of the election of the GA Designee
and voting any proxies the Company holds, and using its reasonable best efforts
to cause any officers of the Company who hold proxies to vote such proxies in
favor of the election of the GA Designee, except, in either case, as otherwise
directed by the stockholder who submitted such proxy.
(c) The Company shall reimburse the GA Designee and, if the
Observer attends with the Company's prior consent, the Observer for their
reasonable travel and accommodation expenses incurred in connection with
attending meetings of the Board of Directors and committees thereof, and provide
such other expense reimbursement as is consistent with the reimbursement
14
provided to other members of the Board of Directors in their capacities as
directors of the Company, upon presentation of receipts or other similar
documentation.
(d) Subject to applicable Requirements of Law (including,
without limitation, any stock market rules and regulations), the GA Designee
shall have the right to serve on each committee of the Board of Directors.
(e) This Section 8.4 shall terminate and be of no further
force and effect at such time as the Purchasers, together with their Affiliates,
own, in the aggregate, a number of shares of Common Stock that is less than
fifty percent (50%) of the total number of Purchased Shares that the Purchasers
purchase from the Sellers at the Closing (as adjusted to reflect any stock
dividends, splits, combinations or similar changes to the total number of
outstanding shares of Common Stock).
8.5 REGISTRATION RIGHTS. As soon as practicable after the date of
this Agreement, but in any event by no later than September 30, 2005, the
Company shall enter into a registration rights agreement with the Purchasers
under which the Company grants to the Purchasers the registration rights set
forth on EXHIBIT B hereto. The Purchasers acknowledge that the Company intends
to grant registration rights to certain other shareholders of the Company as
well in such registration rights agreement.
8.6 SALE TO COMPETITOR. None of the Purchasers shall, directly or
indirectly, without the prior written consent of the Company, offer, sell,
contract to sell, transfer, pledge or grant an option over any of the Purchased
Shares to any Person that is a direct competitor of the Company, other than in
connection with a change of control or sale of the Company (whether by merger,
consolidation, tender offer, exchange offer, sale of shares of capital stock,
other business combination transaction, sale of all or substantially all of the
assets or otherwise).
