ARTICLE I.

ORGANIZATIONAL MATTERS

Section 1.1 Election of Directors.

(a) So long as MW and his Permitted Transferees own at least 25% of the shares of Common Stock that MW receives in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the MW Contribution Agreement (excluding any shares of Common Stock MW or his Permitted Transferees Transfer to Management Participants from time to time after the date hereof as provided in Section 2.7, the “MW Shares”), MW shall have the right to designate four individuals as nominees for election as directors of the Company and as directors of each direct or indirect subsidiary of the Company (each, a “Subsidiary”), each of whom shall be reasonably acceptable to GEI so long as it is entitled to nominate at least one GEI Director (it being agreed that MW is reasonably acceptable). So long as MW and his Permitted Transferees own at least 12.5% of the MW Shares, MW shall have the right to designate two individuals as nominees for election as directors of the Company and as directors of each Subsidiary, each of whom shall be reasonably acceptable to GEI so long as it is entitled to nominate at least one GEI Director (it being agreed that MW is reasonably acceptable). For the avoidance of doubt, if MW and his Permitted Transferees do not own, collectively, at least 12.5% of the MW Shares, then MW shall not have the right to designate any nominees for election as directors of the Company or any Subsidiary pursuant to this Agreement ; provided, however, that if MW and his Permitted Transferees do not own at least 12.5% of the MW Shares, but MW is the Chief Executive Officer of Hollywood, then MW shall have the right to designate one individual as a nominee for election as a director of the Company and as director of each Subsidiary, who shall be reasonably acceptable to GEI so long as it is entitled to nominate at least one GEI Director (it being agreed that MW is reasonably acceptable). Each individual nominated by MW for election as a director of the Company pursuant to this Section 1.1(a) is hereinafter called a “Management Director” and, collectively, such individuals are called the “Management Directors.”

For the avoidance of doubt, if the GEI Parties do not own, collectively, at least 12.5% of the shares of Common Stock owned by the GEI Parties immediately following the effective time of the Merger, then GEI shall not have the right to designate any nominees for election as directors of the Company or any Subsidiary pursuant to this Agreement.

For purposes of this Agreement, “Additional Director Event” means the occurrence of any of the following (a) the Employment Agreement, dated as of March [28], 2004 (the “Employment Agreement”), between Merger Sub and MW is terminated as a result of (i) Executive’s voluntary termination of employment thereunder without “good reason” (as defined in the Employment Agreement), (ii) Executive’s failure to renew the Employment Agreement (it being understood that a failure by Hollywood (as the surviving corporation in the Merger) to renew the Employment Agreement shall not constitute an Additional Director Event) or (iii) MW having been dismissed with “cause” pursuant to either clause (ii) or clause (iii) of paragraph 10 of the Employment Agreement; (b) the first date after both of the following have occurred (i) the Employment Agreement has been terminated as a result of the death or disability of MW and (ii) MW, his estate and his other Permitted Transferees no longer own at least 25% of the MW Shares; (c) Hollywood’s earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) is less than $175,000,000 for any 12-month period; or (d) Hollywood or any of its Subsidiaries is not in compliance with the provisions of the Credit Agreement (as hereinafter defined) or the Indenture (as hereinafter defined) and, in either case, such non-compliance constitutes a material breach of such agreement (taking into account any cure period thereunder), if (i) MW remains the chief executive officer of Hollywood or (ii) MW has been dismissed for “cause” pursuant to clause (i) or clause (iii) of paragraph 10 of the Employment Agreement in 30 days prior to such failure of compliance; provided, that MW has not resigned from his position as CEO of the Company, or failed to renew the Employment Agreement, in order to avoid the application of this clause (d).

(g) In the event that, prior to any annual meeting of stockholders to elect directors of the Company, the number of Management Directors then serving on the Board of Directors exceeds the number of individuals that MW would be entitled to nominate for election as Management Directors in accordance with Section 1.1(a), then, at the request of any GEI Party, MW shall use his best efforts to obtain resignations from the Board of Directors (and the boards of directors of each Subsidiary) from a number of Management Directors such that the number of Management Directors on the Board of Directors after giving effect to such resignations is not greater than the number of Management Directors MW is entitled to nominate at that time. In the event that, prior to any annual meeting of stockholders to elect directors of the Company, the number of Non-Management Directors then serving on the Board of Directors exceeds the number of individuals that GEI would be entitled to nominate for election as Non-Management

Directors in accordance with Section 1.1(b), Section 1.1(c), Section 1.5(c) and Section 1.6(b), then, at the request of MW, GEI shall use its best efforts to obtain resignations from the Board of Directors (and the boards of directors of each Subsidiary) from a number of Non-Management Directors such that the number of Non-Management Directors on the Board of Directors after giving effect to such resignations is not greater than the number of Non-Management Directors GEI is entitled to nominate at that time. In the event that any party is unable to obtain the resignations called for by this Section 1.1(g) then, (i) within 5 business days following such request, such party shall identify to the Company the name(s) of the director(s) to be removed and (ii)(A) the Company shall seek action by written consent within two business days following the identification of the director(s) to be removed and the Executive Stockholders and the GEI Parties shall execute and deliver to the Company any such consent within two business days of receipt thereof or request therefor or (B) if action by written consent of stockholders is not then permitted by the certificate of incorporation and bylaws of the Company, the Company shall cause a special meeting of stockholders to be held proposing the removal of such director(s) from the Board of Directors as promptly as practicable, and the Executive Stockholders and the GEI Parties shall, at such meeting, vote their shares of Common Stock in favor of such removal.

In addition, each Stockholder shall take all reasonable action as GEI or the purchaser in the Drag-Along Sale shall reasonably request as necessary to vest in the purchaser in the Drag-Along Sale all Capital Stock owned by such Stockholder, whether in certificated or uncertificated form, free and clear of all liens, charges and encumbrances of any kind.

(ii) redeeming, exchanging or converting the Senior Preferred Stock for cash or securities (other than Common Stock or other Equity Interests), including by issuing or selling debt securities or incurring indebtedness to the extent the net proceeds thereof are used to redeem, exchange or convert the Senior Preferred Stock; provided, that the terms of such debt securities or indebtedness do not impose materially more restrictive covenants than the covenants in then existing credit facilities or debt securities of the Company and its Subsidiaries (or, if none then existing, the most recent credit facility or debt security) and are not materially less favorable, taken as a whole, than the terms of the Company’s and its Subsidiaries’ then existing material indebtedness;

(iii) (A) effecting an initial public offering of Capital Stock; provided, that such offering results in net proceeds to the Company of at least $50,000,000 (a “Qualified IPO”) or (B) effecting a registration for a Registration Party of its Junior Preferred Stock or Senior Preferred Stock (any of the transactions described in clauses (i), (ii) or (iii) of this Section 1.6(a), a “Financing Transaction”); and

(b) The Executive Stockholders shall use their best efforts to cause the Management Directors to vote in favor of approval of any Financing Transaction or other transaction described in Section 1.6(a) approved by a majority of the Non-Management Directors then in office and, in the event that the approval or consent of a majority of the Non-Management Directors is not sufficient to approve a Financing Transaction or such other transaction under applicable law, the Certificate of Incorporation or By-Laws of the Company, any agreement with any national securities exchange or otherwise and the Non-Management Directors do not vote in favor of the approval of such Financing Transaction or such other transaction, then (i) GEI shall have the right to designate an additional number of nominees for election as directors of the Company such that, when combined with the number of Non-Management Directors then in office, the total number of members of the Board of Directors nominated by GEI constitutes a majority of the entire Board of Directors and (ii)(A) the Company shall seek action by written consent within two business days following the identification of such nominees to the election of such nominees as members of the Board of Directors, and the Executive Stockholders and the GEI Parties shall execute and deliver to the Company any such consent within two business days of receipt thereof or request therefor or (B)

if action by written consent of stockholders is not then permitted by the certificate of incorporation and bylaws of the Company, the Company shall cause a special meeting of stockholders to be held proposing the election of such directors as promptly as practicable, and the Executive Stockholders and the GEI Parties shall, at such meeting, vote their shares of Common Stock in favor of such election.

Section 1.7 Junior Preferred Stock. If, at any time following the exercise of all or part of the MW Options, MW and his Permitted Transferees own a number of shares of Junior Preferred Stock constituting a majority of the outstanding shares of Junior Preferred Stock, then, so long as the GEI Parties own 50% of the shares of Junior Preferred Stock owned by GEI Parties immediately following the effective time of the Merger, the Company shall not take any action requiring the approval, vote or consent of the holders of Junior Preferred Stock (including any amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation of the Company requiring any such approval, vote or consent) unless such action is approved by the holders of at least 66.6% of the outstanding Junior Preferred Stock.

Section 1.8 Expiration. The provisions of Sections 1.1 through 1.6 of this Article I shall expire upon the occurrence of a Public Offering Event (as defined in Section 5.1).

In the case of any Transfer of title or beneficial ownership of Capital Stock upon default, foreclosure, forfeit, court order or otherwise than by a voluntary decision on the part of a Stockholder (an “Involuntary Transfer”), such Stockholder, as the case may be (or such Stockholder’s legal representatives, as the case may be) shall promptly (but in no event later than two (2) business days after such Involuntary Transfer) furnish written notice to the Company and the other Stockholders, indicating that the Involuntary Transfer has occurred, specifying the name of the Person to whom such Capital Stock has been Transferred, giving a detailed description of the circumstances giving rise to, and stating the legal basis for, the Involuntary Transfer.

Section 2.7 Additional Permitted Transfers. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement (but subject to Section 2.3 hereof), in furtherance of Section 5(b) of the MW Contribution Agreement, without complying with the terms of Sections 3.1-3.3 hereof or Article IV hereof (a) any Executive Stockholder (other than MW) may Transfer Common Stock or Junior Preferred Stock to MW (or his Permitted Transferees) and (b) MW (or his Permitted Transferees) may Transfer Common Stock or Junior Preferred Stock to any Original Holder (other than a GEI Party) or any Management Participant; provided, that if the Executive Stockholder to whom Common Stock or Junior Preferred Stock is being Transferred is not already a party to this Agreement, such Transfer shall be subject to the delivery by the Executive Stockholder to the Company and the Stockholders of a duly executed agreement to be bound by the terms of this Agreement as an “Executive Stockholder.” For purposes of this Agreement, “Management Participant” means an individual who is, as of the date hereof, an officer or employee of the Company or a Subsidiary and who continues to be an officer or employee of the Company or a Subsidiary as of the date of the Transfer (other than, in the case of a Transfer of Common Stock or Junior Preferred Stock back to MW or the Company). The terms of any Transfer described in this Section 2.7 shall be set out in a separate agreement (a “Separate Agreement”) between the Executive Stockholder and MW, which may contain such voting provisions, rights of first refusal, rights of first offer, call rights and other provisions governing Transfers of Common Stock and Junior Preferred Stock between MW and the other Executive Stockholder as they mutually agree; provided, that the terms of any such Separate Agreement shall be reasonably satisfactory to GEI. MW shall provide the Company and GEI with a copy of any such Separate Agreement. The Transfer provisions of the Separate Agreement shall take precedence over the provisions of Article III and Article IV hereof; provided, that (x) no such provisions shall provide for any Common Stock or Junior Preferred Stock to be Transferred to any person other than an Executive Stockholder who is or becomes party to this Agreement and (y) if an Executive Stockholder does not exercise its rights pursuant to such Separate Agreement, then the provisions of this Agreement shall apply to any proposed Transfer by any Executive Stockholder. In the event that a Separate Agreement does not contain provisions relating to voting, rights of first refusal, rights of first offer, call rights and other provisions governing Transfer of Common Stock and Junior Preferred Stock between MW and the relevant Executive Stockholder, the parties to such Separate Agreement may request that the Company and the other Stockholders amend this Agreement to include such provisions and the Company, the Executive Stockholders and the GEI Parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to effect such amendments hereto; provided, that such amendments are reasonably satisfactory to GEI and are not inconsistent with the provisions of this Section 2.7.

ARTICLE III.

TRANSFER PROCEDURE; RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL; CALL RIGHT

Section 3.1 Right of First Refusal.

(a) If MW and/or his Permitted Transferees shall have received, and desires to accept, a bona fide arms’ length written offer (a “Bona Fide Offer”) from one or more Outside Parties (as hereinafter defined) for the purchase of Common Stock or Junior Preferred Stock (or MW and/or his Permitted Transferees shall have made a Bona Fide Offer for the sale of Common Stock or Junior Preferred Stock and one or more Outside Parties desire to accept such Bona Fide Offer) for consideration consisting of cash or Marketable Securities, then such Stockholders shall give a notice in writing (the “Transfer Notice”) to the Company and the other Stockholders setting forth such desire, which notice shall include the name and address of the Outside Party or Outside Parties making such Bona Fide Offer and the price and other material terms and conditions thereof and shall be accompanied by a copy of the Bona Fide Offer. Upon receipt of such Transfer Notice, GEI shall have an option to purchase, in the aggregate, all (but not part) of the Capital Stock described in the Transfer Notice at the per share cash price specified in the Transfer Notice or, if the Transfer Notice describes a Transfer of Capital Stock for Marketable Securities, for a cash price to be determined in accordance with Section 3.6. If GEI desires to exercise the option set forth in the preceding sentence, it shall deliver a notice (an “Election Notice”) to MW, the other Stockholders and the Company within twenty (20) days of receipt of the Transfer Notice (the “Election Period”). In the event GEI does not deliver an Election Notice before the end of the Election Period, then the Company shall have the option to deliver an Election Notice to MW and the other Stockholders within ten (10) days after the expiration of the Election Period. For the avoidance of doubt, GEI may assign the right to exercise all or part of the option to purchase Capital Stock described in a particular Transfer Notice to one or more of its Affiliates, in which case (a) the Election Notice shall specify the Persons exercising such option and the number of shares of Capital Stock to be acquired by each such assignee (provided that, in any event, all shares of Capital Stock specified in the relevant Transfer Notice shall be purchased) and (b) references to GEI in this Article III shall be deemed to refer to such assignees (or GEI and such assignees, as applicable) as appropriate to reflect such assignment. With respect to any Stockholder, an “Outside Party” means a third Person who is not an Affiliate of such Stockholder.

(b) Subject to Section 3.1(d), if any GEI Party shall have received, and desires to accept, a Bona Fide Offer from one or more Outside Parties for the purchase of Common Stock or Junior Preferred Stock (or any GEI Party shall have made a Bona Fide Offer for the sale of Common Stock or Junior Preferred Stock and one or more Outside Parties desire to accept such Bona Fide Offer) for consideration consisting of cash or Marketable Securities, then such Stockholders shall give a Transfer Notice to the Company and the other Stockholders setting forth such desire, which notice shall include the name and address of the Outside Party or Outside Parties making such Bona Fide Offer and the price and other material terms and conditions thereof and shall be accompanied by a copy of the Bona Fide Offer. Upon receipt of such Transfer Notice, MW shall have an option to purchase, in the aggregate, all (but not part) of the Common Stock and Junior Preferred Stock described in the Transfer Notice in each case at the per share cash price specified in the Transfer Notice or, if the Transfer Notice describes a Transfer of Capital Stock for Marketable Securities, for a cash price to be determined in

accordance with Section 3.6. If MW desires to exercise the option set forth in the preceding sentence, it shall deliver an Election Notice to GEI, the other Stockholders and the Company within the Election Period. In the event MW does not deliver an Election Notice before the end of the Election Period, then the Company shall have the option to deliver an Election Notice to GEI and the other Stockholders within ten (10) days after the expiration of the Election Period. For the avoidance of doubt, MW may assign the right to exercise all or part of the option to purchase Common Stock and/or Junior Preferred Stock described in a particular Transfer Notice to one or more Permitted Transferees of MW or an Executive Stockholder who continues to be employed by the Company or a Subsidiary, in which case (a) the Election Notices shall specify the Persons exercising such option and the number of shares of Common Stock and/or Junior Preferred Stock to be acquired by each such assignee (provided that, in any event, all shares of Capital Stock specified in the relevant Transfer Notice shall be purchased) and (b) references to MW in this Article III shall be deemed to refer to such assignees (or MW and such assignees, as applicable) as appropriate to reflect such assignment.

(c) If an Executive Stockholder (other than MW) shall have received, and desires to accept, a Bona Fide Offer from one or more Outside Parties for the purchase of Common Stock or Junior Preferred Stock (or, subject to any Separate Agreement, any such Executive Stockholder shall have made a Bona Fide Offer for the sale of Common Stock or Junior Preferred Stock and one or more Outside Parties desire to accept such Bona Fide Offer) for consideration consisting of cash or Marketable Securities, then such Stockholder shall give a Transfer Notice to the Company and the other Stockholders setting forth such desire, which notice shall include the name and address of the Outside Party or Outside Parties making such Bona Fide Offer and the price and other material terms and conditions thereof and shall be accompanied by a copy of the Bona Fide Offer. Upon receipt of such Transfer Notice, MW shall have such rights as are specified in any Separate Agreement with such Executive Stockholder. Prior to the end of the Election Period, MW shall provide the Company and GEI with a notice specifying what action, if any, MW took pursuant to such Separate Agreement and if such notice indicates that MW determined not to purchase all of the shares of Common Stock and/or Junior Preferred Stock described in Transfer Notice then GEI shall have the option to deliver an Election Notice with respect to any remaining shares of Common Stock and/or Preferred Stock to the Executive Stockholder and the other Stockholders within ten (10) days after the expiration of the Election Period and if GEI does not deliver an Election Notice before the end of such ten-day period, then the Company shall have the option to deliver an Election Notice to the Executive Stockholder and the other Stockholders within 20 days after the expiration of the Election Period. For the avoidance of doubt, GEI may assign the right to exercise all or part of the option to purchase the Common Stock and/or Junior Preferred Stock described in a particular Transfer Notice to one or more of its Affiliates, in which case (a) the Election Notices shall specify the Persons exercising such option and the number of shares of Common Stock and/or Junior Preferred Stock to be acquired by each such assignee (provided that, in any event, all shares of Common Stock and Junior Preferred Stock specified in the relevant Transfer Notice shall be purchased) and (b) references to GEI in this Article III shall be deemed to refer to such assignees (or GEI and/or such assignees, as applicable) as appropriate to reflect such assignment.

(d) Notwithstanding any provision of Section 3.1 to the contrary, no Stockholder shall have any right of first refusal with respect to (i) any Transfer or proposed Transfer of Common Stock or Junior Preferred Stock by any GEI Party to MW (or his Permitted

Transferee) or (ii) any Transfer or proposed Transfer of Common Stock by a GEI Party if such Transfer of Common Stock is made in connection with a Transfer of Senior Preferred Stock; provided, that, such Transfers of Common Stock in connection with Transfers of Senior Preferred Stock by the GEI Parties, together with all prior Transfers by the GEI Parties of Common Stock in connection with Transfers of Senior Preferred Stock, do not exceed 10% of the Common Stock owned by the GEI Parties immediately following the effective time of the Merger. The GEI Parties agree that any Transfer of Senior Preferred Stock described in clause (ii) of the preceding sentence shall be a bona fide Transfer and that they will not offer to sell shares of Senior Preferred Stock with shares of Common Stock in order to circumvent the rights of MW in this Article III.

(e) If any GEI Party shall have received, and desires to accept, a Bona Fide Offer from one or more Outside Parties for the purchase of Senior Preferred Stock which shall also include a Transfer of Common Stock (or any GEI Party shall have made a Bona Fide Offer for the sale of Senior Preferred Stock which shall also include a Transfer of Common Stock and one or more Outside Parties desire to accept such Bona Fide Offer) and such Transfer of Common Stock in connection with a sale of Senior Preferred Stock, when combined with all prior transfers by the GEI Parties of Common Stock in connection with Transfers of Senior Preferred Stock, would result, in the aggregate, in Transfers by the GEI Parties of Common Stock in excess of 10% of the Common Stock owned by the GEI Parties immediately following the effective time of the Merger, GEI shall give a Transfer Notice to the Company and MW, which notice shall include the name and address of the Outside Party or Outside Parties to whom such Transfer is proposed and the price and other material terms and conditions thereof, which shall be accompanied by a copy of the Bona Fide Offer. Upon receipt of such Transfer Notice, MW shall have an option to purchase, in the aggregate, all (but not part) of the Common Stock and Senior Preferred Stock described in the Transfer Notice in each case at the per share cash price specified in the Transfer Notice or, if the Transfer Notice describes a Transfer of Common Stock for Marketable Securities, for a cash price to be determined in accordance with Section 3.6. If MW desires to exercise the option set forth in the preceding sentence, he shall deliver an Election Notice to GEI and the Company within the Election Period. For the avoidance of doubt, MW may assign the right to exercise all or part of the option to purchase Common Stock and Senior Preferred Stock described in a particular Transfer Notice to one or more Permitted Transferees of MW or (in the case of the Common Stock only) an Executive Stockholder who continues to be employed by the Company or a Subsidiary, in which case (a) the Election Notice shall specify the Persons exercising such option and the number of shares of Common Stock and/or Senior Preferred Stock to be acquired by each such assignee (provided that, in any event, all shares of Capital Stock specified in the relevant Transfer Notice shall be purchased) and (b) references to MW in this Article III shall be deemed to refer to such assignees (or MW and such assignees, as applicable) as appropriate to reflect such assignment.

(f) In the event that MW or GEI (an “Assignor”) assigns the right to exercise all or any part of a right of first refusal described in this Section 3.1 to an Affiliate or Permitted Transferee, the ability of such Affiliate or Permitted Transferee to exercise the right of first refusal and purchase Capital Stock pursuant thereto shall be subject to such Affiliate’s or such Permitted Transferee’s agreement to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Agreement to the same extent as the Assignor and to Transfer any Capital Stock so acquired back to the Assignor in the event that the Affiliate or Permitted Transferee ceases to be an Affiliate or Permitted Transferee of the Assignor.

Section 3.2 Obligation to Purchase and Sell; Closing. If MW, GEI or the Company delivers an Election Notice, then it shall be obligated to purchase, and the Stockholder shall be obligated to sell, the Capital Stock described in such Election Notice at the cash price and on the other terms indicated in the Bona Fide Offer (subject to Section 3.6), except that the closing of such purchase and sale shall be held on the tenth business day after the expiration of the Election Period at 10:30 a.m., local time, at the principal executive office of the Company in Oregon, or at such other time and place as the parties to such purchase and sale may mutually agree.

Section 3.3 Transfer to Outside Party. In the event a Stockholder has complied with the provisions of Section 3.1 and no Election Notice is delivered pursuant thereto, such Stockholder may, subject to the provisions of Section 2.3 hereof and compliance with the provisions of Article IV hereof, Transfer the Capital Stock described in the Transfer Notice to the Outside Party specified therein, but only for consideration consisting solely of cash and/or Marketable Securities and on terms and conditions that are no more favorable in any material respect to the Outside Party than those specified in such Transfer Notice; provided, that (a) the Outside Party does not compete, or directly or indirectly control any Person that competes, with the Company in any line of business or substantially similar line of business conducted by the Company or the Subsidiaries and (b) such Outside Party shall duly execute and deliver to the Company and the other Stockholders an agreement to be bound by the terms of Section 1.5, Article II, Article III, Article VII, Article VIII, Article IX and Article X of this Agreement as a “Stockholder” (and not as an Executive Stockholder or GEI Party) and (c) the closing of such Transfer takes place within sixty (60) business days of the termination of the Election Period. In addition, subject to the limitations contained in Section 5.2(a), in connection with any such Transfer to an Outside Party, the transferring Stockholder may assign the right to effect Demands and participate in piggyback registrations pursuant to Article V hereof; provided, that such Outside Party agrees to be bound by all of the terms and conditions of such Article V in addition to the provisions of this Agreement described in clause (b) of the preceding sentence. Any election by the Company or a Stockholder not to exercise its rights under this Article III in any particular instance, shall not constitute a waiver of its rights under Article II or this Article III in connection with any other proposed Transfer of Capital Stock. No Outside Party shall have any rights under Article I or Article IV of this Agreement.

Section 3.4 Call Right.

(a) Call Event. The Company shall give prompt written notice of any Call Event to MW and GEI. For purposes of this Agreement, (i) a “Call Event” shall be deemed to occur (x) with respect to an Executive Stockholder (other than MW) and such Executive Stockholder’s Permitted Transferees, if any, upon the termination of such Executive Stockholder’s employment with the Company or any Subsidiary for any reason and (y) with respect to an Employee Holder (as hereinafter defined), upon the termination of such Employee Holder’s employment with (or, in the case of a non-employee director, ceasing to be a director of) the Company or any of its subsidiaries for any reason; (ii) “Employee Holder” means any Stockholder (other than an Executive Stockholder) who is an employee or director of the Company or any Subsidiary who received Common Stock upon exercise of options granted

pursuant to the Company Stock Option Plan; and (iii) “Call Period” means (x) if, at the time of the Call Event, the relevant Executive Stockholder or Employee Holder holds any options to purchase Common Stock or Common Stock issued upon the exercise of any such options, seven months from the later of (i) the Call Event and (ii) the date of exercise of the last option to have been so exercised or (y) in any other case, 60 days from the occurrence of the Call Event; provided, that if the Company fails to give the notice specified in the first sentence of this Section 3.4(a), and the Call Period would otherwise expire less than 30 days following the first date on which both of MW and GEI have actual knowledge of the occurrence of the relevant Call Event, then the Call Period shall be extended until the 30^th day following the first day on which both of MW and GEI have actual knowledge of the occurrence of such Call Event; provided, further, that in no event shall the Company purchase any shares of Capital Stock on or prior to the expiration of six months following the date such shares were first acquired by the Executive Stockholder or Employee Holder and, if the Call Period would otherwise expire less than 30 days after the expiration of such six-month period, then the Call Period shall be extended until the 30^th day following the expiration of such six-month period.

(b) Call Right on Common Stock and/or Junior Preferred Stock Owned by Executive Stockholders.

(i) Upon the occurrence of a Call Event with respect to an Executive Stockholder (other than MW) prior to a Public Offering Event, MW shall have an option (the “Call Option”) to purchase from such Executive Stockholder (and such Executive Stockholder’s Permitted Transferees, if any) all shares of Common Stock and/or Junior Preferred Stock owned by such Stockholders at a per share price determined in accordance with the relevant Separate Agreement. If MW desires to exercise the Call Option, he shall, prior to the expiration of the Call Period, deliver a notice (a “Call Notice”) to the Executive Stockholder and his or her Permitted Transferees, if any, and the other Stockholders, which Call Notice shall specify the number of shares of Common Stock and/or Junior Preferred Stock to be acquired. For the avoidance of doubt, MW may assign the right to exercise all or part of the Call Option to purchase Common Stock and/or Junior Preferred Stock to one or more of his Permitted Transferees or another Executive Stockholder who continues to be employed by the Company or a Subsidiary, in which case (a) the Call Notice delivered by MW shall specify the Persons exercising such Call Option and the number of shares of Common Stock and/or Junior Preferred Stock to be acquired by each such assignee and (b) references to MW in this Article III shall be deemed to refer to such assignees (or MW and such assignees) as appropriate to reflect such assignment.

(ii) In the event MW does not deliver a Call Notice before the end of the Call Period or any Call Notice so delivered does not relate to the purchase of all of the shares of Common Stock and/or Junior Preferred Stock subject to the Call Option, then GEI shall have the right to exercise the Call Option at a price per share equal to the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock and/or Junior Preferred Stock, as applicable, as determined in accordance with Section 3.7 and deliver a Call Notice to the Executive Stockholder and his or her Permitted Transferees, if any, and the other Stockholders within ten (10) days after the first

For the avoidance of doubt, GEI may assign the right to exercise all or part of the Call Option to one or more of its Affiliates, in which case (x) the Call Notices shall specify the Persons exercising such Call Option and the number of shares of Common Stock to be acquired by each such assignee and (y) references to GEI in this Article III shall be deemed to refer to such assignees (or GEI and such assignees, as applicable) as appropriate to reflect such assignment.

(iii) In the event neither MW nor GEI delivers a Call Notice before the end of the Call Period or any Call Notices so delivered do not relate to the purchase, in the aggregate, of all of the shares of Common Stock and/or Junior Preferred Stock subject to the Call Option, then the Company shall have the right to exercise the Call Option at a price per share equal to the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock and/or Junior Preferred Stock, as applicable, as determined in accordance with Section 3.7 and deliver a Call Notice to the Executive Stockholder and his or her Permitted Transferees, if any and the other Stockholders within twenty (20) days following the expiration of the Call Period, which Call Notice shall specify the number of remaining shares of Capital Stock to be acquired.

(iv) In the event Call Notices are delivered by more than one of MW, GEI and the Company and, as a result of miscalculation or similar error, the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock and/or Junior Preferred Stock described in such Call Notices exceeds the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock and/or Junior Preferred Stock subject to the Call Option, such Call Option shall be exercised first by MW, then by GEI and then by the Company.

(c) Call Right on Common Stock Owned by Employee Holders. Upon the occurrence of a Call Event with respect to an Employee Holder prior to a Public Offering Event, the Company shall have a Call Option to purchase from such Employee Holder all shares of Common Stock owned by such Employee Holder at a per share price equal to the Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock determined in accordance with Section 3.7. If the Company desires to exercise the Call Option, it shall, prior to the expiration of the Call Period, deliver a Call Notice to the Employee Holder and the other Stockholders, which Call Notice shall specify the number of shares of Common Stock to be acquired. In the event the Company does not deliver a Call Notice before the end of the Call Period or any Call Notices so delivered do not relate to the purchase, in the aggregate, of all of the shares of Common Stock subject to the Call Option, then each of MW and GEI shall have the right to exercise the Call Option and deliver a Call Notice to Employee Holder and the other Stockholders within ten (10) days following the expiration of the Call Period, which Call Notice shall specify the number of remaining shares of Capital Stock to be acquired. For the avoidance of doubt, MW may assign the right to exercise all or part of the Call Option to purchase Common Stock to one or more of his Permitted Transferees and GEI may assign the right to exercise all or part of the Call Option to purchase

Common Stock to one or more of its Affiliates, in which case (a) the Call Notice shall specify the Persons exercising such Call Option and the number of shares of Common Stock to be acquired by each such assignee and (b) references to MW and/or GEI in this Article III shall be deemed to refer to such assignees (or MW, GEI and such assignees) as appropriate to reflect such assignment. In the event Call Notices are delivered by more than one of MW, GEI and the Company and, as a result of miscalculation or similar error, the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock described in such Call Notices exceeds the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock subject to the Call Option, such Call Option shall be exercised first by the Company and then by MW and GEI (on a pro rata basis).

(d) In the event that an Assignor assigns the right to exercise all or any part of a Call Right described in this Section 3.4 to an Affiliate or Permitted Transferee, the ability of such Affiliate or Permitted Transferee to exercise the Call Right and purchase Common Stock pursuant thereto shall be subject to such Affiliate’s or such Permitted Transferee’s agreement to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Agreement to the same extent as the Assignor and to Transfer any Common Stock so acquired back to the Assignor in the event that the Affiliate or Permitted Transferee ceases to be an Affiliate or Permitted Transferee of the Assignor.

Section 3.5 Actions at Closing. At any closing held pursuant to this Article III:

(a) The purchase price for the purchase for the relevant securities shall be paid in cash (by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account specified in writing by the recipients thereof at least three (3) business days prior to the date of such closing) or by certified or official bank check.

(b) The relevant Stockholders shall deliver all certificates, if any, which represent the shares of Capital Stock to be sold at such closing, duly endorsed for transfer with signatures guaranteed, to the purchasers thereof and shall authorize the Company (or the Company’s transfer agent, if any) to record in the Company’s books and records the transfer to such purchasers of the shares of Capital Stock to be sold, including any shares of Capital Stock not evidenced by certificates.

(c) The relevant Stockholders shall take all actions the purchasers shall reasonably request as necessary to vest in the applicable purchasers all shares of Capital Stock being sold, whether in certificated or uncertificated form, free and clear of all liens, charges and encumbrances of any kind.

Section 3.6 Consideration. If a Transfer Notice or Preemptive Rights Notice (as defined in Section 4.8(c)) specifies consideration consisting of Marketable Securities, then such consideration shall be valued based upon the closing price for such Marketable Securities on the primary market therefor on the day prior to the date of the Transfer Notice or Preemptive Rights Notice, as applicable. For purposes of this Agreement, “Marketable Securities” means any securities that are freely tradeable by the holder thereof on one or more established public markets, including, but not limited to, any securities (A) which are listed or traded on a United States national securities exchange or the NASDAQ Stock Market or (B) quoted on an established quotation system within or outside the United States that supports sufficient trading activity and volume to allow for the orderly disposition of such securities by the holders thereof.

Section 3.7 Fair Market Value.

(a) For purposes of this Article III, the “Fair Market Value” of a share of Common Stock or Junior Preferred Stock, as applicable, shall be determined as of the time of the Call Event by the Board of Directors of the Company in the exercise of its reasonable discretion; provided, however, that such determination shall not discount the value of such shares either because (i) they are subject to the restrictions set forth in this Agreement, (ii) they are illiquid or (iii) they constitute only a minority interest in the Company. The Company shall deliver a notice setting forth the determination of the Board of Directors as to Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock and/or Junior Preferred Stock, as applicable, to MW, GEI and the relevant Executive Stockholder or Employee Holder, as applicable, no later than the fifth day prior to the end of the Call Period. Upon delivery of notice of such Fair Market Value, the Executive Stockholder or Employee Holder, as applicable, shall have ten (10) days in which to notify the Company, MW and GEI in writing of any disagreement, which notice shall state in reasonable detail the reasons for such disagreement. If no written notice of disagreement is given by the Executive Stockholder or Employee Holder, the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock and/or Junior Preferred Stock, as applicable, as determined by the Board of Directors of the Company shall be conclusive and binding on (x) the Executive Stockholder (and his or her Permitted Transferees, if any) or the Employee Holder, as the case may be, and (y) MW, GEI and the Company. If written notice is given by the Executive Stockholder or the Employee Holder of a disagreement, the Company and the Executive Stockholder or the Employee Holder, as applicable, shall engage an investment banking firm or independent appraiser mutually acceptable to the Company and the Executive Stockholder or the Employee Holder, as applicable, to determine the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock (which may be higher than, lower than or equal to the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock as determined by the Board of Directors of the Company) and/or the Junior Preferred Stock (which may be higher than, lower than, or equal to the Fair Market Value of the Junior Preferred Stock as determined by the Board of Directors of the Company). The determination of such firm or appraiser shall be final and binding upon (i) the Executive Stockholder (and his or her Permitted Transferees, if any) or the Employee Holder, as applicable, and (ii) MW, GEI and the Company, and shall not be subject to appeal or arbitration. The costs and expenses incurred in connection with the determination made by the investment banking firm or independent appraiser shall be borne by (i) the Company, in the event the aggregate Fair Market Value of the Common Stock determined by the investment banking firm or independent appraiser is greater than the aggregate Fair Market Value of the Common Stock and/or Junior Preferred Stock, as applicable, determined by the Board of Directors and (ii) the Executive Stockholder (and his or her Permitted Transferees) or the Employee Holder, as applicable, in the event the aggregate Fair Market Value of the Common Stock and/or Junior Preferred Stock, as applicable, determined by the investment banking firm or independent appraiser is less than or equal to the aggregate Fair Market Value of the Common Stock and/or Junior Preferred Stock, as applicable, determined by the Board of Directors. In the case of the application of clause (ii) of the preceding sentence, the purchaser(s) of shares of Common Stock and/or Junior Preferred Stock, as applicable, pursuant to Section 3.4 shall be entitled to deduct and withhold (or, in the event the purchaser is not the Company, deduct and remit to the Company) the portion of such costs to be borne by the Executive Stockholder (and his or her Permitted Transferees) or the Employee Holder (such costs to be allocated equally among all shares to be purchased from the Executive Stockholder and his or her Permitted Transferees or the Employee Holder, as applicable).

(b) Notwithstanding anything in Section 3.7(a) to the contrary, in the event of delivery of a Tag-Along Notice or a Drag-Along Notice prior to the expiration of the Call Period, the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock and/or Junior Preferred Stock, as applicable, shall be deemed to equal (x) in the event such notice relates to a Transfer of Common Stock and/or Junior Preferred Stock, as applicable, for cash, the cash price per share of the Common Stock and/or Junior Preferred Stock, as applicable, specified in such notice or (y) in the event such notice relates to a Transfer of Common Stock and/or Junior Preferred Stock, as applicable, for Marketable Securities, then such consideration shall be valued based upon the closing price for such Marketable Securities on the primary market therefor on the day prior to the date of the notice.

Section 3.8 Termination of Right of First Refusal and Call Rights. The provisions of this Article III shall expire upon the occurrence of a Public Offering Event.

ARTICLE IV.

TAG-ALONG RIGHTS

Section 4.1 Right to Participate in Sale.

(a) Subject to Section 4.6, if MW (or any Permitted Transferee) or any GEI Party (a “Transferring Party”) proposes to Transfer shares of Common Stock or Junior Preferred Stock (a “Tag-Along Sale”) to a third party that is (i) in the case of a GEI Party, not an Affiliate of the Transferring Party or (ii) in the case of MW, a Permitted Transferee or another Executive Stockholder who continues to be employed by the Company or a Subsidiary, then the Transferring Party shall afford MW (and his Permitted Transferees), the other Executive Stockholders and the GEI Parties, as applicable (the “Tag-Along Stockholders”), the opportunity to participate proportionately in such Tag-Along Sale in accordance with this Article IV. Each Tag-Along Stockholder shall have a proportionate right, but not the obligation (except as provided in Section 1.5), to participate in such Tag-Along Sale. The number of shares of Common Stock or Junior Preferred Stock, as applicable (the “Tag-Along Allotment”), that each Tag-Along Stockholder will be entitled to include in such Tag-Along Sale shall be determined by multiplying (a) the number of shares of Common Stock and/or Junior Preferred Stock, as applicable, beneficially owned by such Tag-Along Stockholder as of the close of business on the day immediately prior to the Tag-Along Notice Date by (b) a fraction (the “Tag-Along Fraction”), the numerator of which shall equal the number of shares of Common Stock and/or Junior Preferred Stock, as applicable, proposed by the Transferring Party to be sold or otherwise disposed of pursuant to the Tag-Along Sale and the denominator of which shall equal the total number of shares of Common Stock and/or Junior Preferred Stock, as applicable, that are beneficially owned (which, for purposes of this Article IV, shall include all shares of Junior Preferred Stock issuable upon exercise of the MW Options then outstanding) by the Transferring Party (and its Permitted Transferees or Affiliates, as applicable) as of the close of business on the day immediately prior to the Tag-Along Notice Date. For the avoidance of doubt, the tag-along rights provided in this Section 4.1(a) shall apply only with respect to those classes of Capital Stock to be transferred by the Transferring Party in any particular transaction and shall not be triggered with respect to a particular class of Capital Stock as a result of Transfers of any other class of Capital Stock.

Section 4.2 Sale Notice. The Transferring Party shall provide each Tag-Along Stockholder with written notice (the “Tag-Along Sale Notice”) not more than sixty (60) nor less than twenty-five (25) days prior to the proposed date of the Tag-Along Sale (the “Tag-Along Sale Date”). Each Tag-Along Sale Notice shall set forth: (i) the number of shares of Common Stock and/or Junior Preferred Stock proposed to be transferred or sold by the Transferring Party; (ii) the proposed amount and form of consideration to be paid for such shares and the terms and conditions of payment offered by each proposed purchaser; (iii) the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock and/or Junior Preferred Stock, as applicable, held of record by the Transferring Party as of the close of business on the day immediately preceding the date of the Tag-Along Notice (the “Tag-Along Notice Date”); (iv) such Tag-Along Stockholder’s Tag-Along Allotment(s) assuming such Stockholder elected to sell the maximum number of shares of Common Stock and/or Junior Preferred Stock, as applicable, as possible; (v) confirmation that the proposed purchaser or transferee has been informed of the “Tag-Along Rights” provided for in this Article IV and has agreed to purchase the Capital Stock in accordance with the terms hereof; and (vi) the Tag-Along Sale Date.

Section 4.3 Tag-Along Notice.

(a) If a Stockholder entitled to do so wishes to participate in the Tag-Along Sale, such Stockholder shall provide written notice (the “Tag-Along Notice”) to the Transferring Stockholder with copies to the other Tag-Along Stockholders at the address for notices determined in accordance with Article VII, within fifteen (15) days following the receipt of the Tag-Along Sale Notice. The Tag-Along Notice shall set forth the number of shares of Common Stock and/or Junior Preferred Stock that such Stockholder elects to include in the Tag-Along Sale, which shall not exceed such Stockholder’s Tag-Along Allotment. The Tag-Along Notice shall also specify the aggregate number of additional shares of Common Stock and/or, Junior Preferred Stock, as applicable, owned of record as of the close of business on the day immediately preceding the Tag-Along Notice Date by such Stockholder, if any, which such Stockholder desires also to include in the Tag-Along Sale (“Additional Shares”) in the event there is any under-subscription for the entire amount of all Stockholders’ Tag-Along Allotments. The Tag-Along Notice given by each Stockholder shall constitute such Stockholder’s binding agreement to sell the Capital Stock specified in such Tag-Along Notice (including any Additional Shares to the extent such Additional Shares are to be included in the Tag-Along Sale pursuant to the apportionment described herein) on the terms and conditions applicable to the Tag-Along Sale, subject to the provisions of Section 4.4; provided, however, that in the event that there is any material change in the terms and conditions of such Tag-Along Sale applicable to any Stockholder after such Stockholder gives its Tag-Along Notice, then, notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, such Stockholder shall have the right to withdraw from participation in the Tag-Along Sale with respect to all of its Capital Stock affected thereby.

(b) If the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock and/or Junior Preferred Stock, as applicable, proposed to be included by the Stockholders in any Tag-Along Sale (without taking into account any Additional Shares) is less than the aggregate Tag-Along Allotments of all of the Stockholders entitled to participate therein (such difference, the “Excess Allotment”), then the Excess Allotment shall be allocated among the Transferring Party and the Stockholders who have indicated a desire to sell Additional Shares pursuant to a Tag-Along Notice pro rata based upon the number of shares of Common Stock and/or Junior Preferred

Stock, as applicable, beneficially owned by each of them as of the close of business on the day immediately prior to the Tag-Along Notice Date; provided that if application of the foregoing provision does not result in allocation of the entire Excess Allotment, then the balance shall be allocated among the Transferring Party and the Stockholders with remaining Additional Shares pro rata based upon the number of shares of Common Stock and/or Junior Preferred Stock, as applicable, beneficially owned by each of them as of the close of business on the day immediately prior to the Tag-Along Notice Date and so on until the entire Excess Allotment has been allocated. The Transferring Party shall notify each Stockholder with Additional Shares to be included in the Tag-Along Sale of the number of such Additional Shares to be so included no later than the fifth (5^th) day prior to the Tag-Along Sale Date.

(c) If a Tag-Along Notice is not received by a Transferring Party from any Stockholder within the 15-day period specified above, the Transferring Party shall have the right to sell or otherwise transfer the number of shares specified in the Tag-Along Notice to the proposed purchaser or transferee without any participation by such Stockholder, but only on terms and conditions which are no more favorable in any material respect to the Transferring Party, as applicable, than as are stated in the Tag-Along Notice and only if such Tag-Along Sale occurs on a date within sixty (60) business days of the Tag-Along Sale Date. If such Tag-Along Sale does not occur within such sixty-day period, the Capital Stock that was to be subject to such Tag-Along Sale thereafter shall continue to be subject to all of the provisions of this Article IV.

(d) All calculations and allocations of Tag-Along Allotments and Excess Allotments shall be made by aggregating shares of Capital Stock of any particular class held by the Transferring Party and its Permitted Transferees and/or Affiliates, on the one hand, and any particular Stockholder and its Permitted Transferees and/or Affiliates, on the other hand. Once such calculation and/or allocation has been determined, the particular Stockholder and its Permitted Transferees and/or Affiliates may determine among themselves, which shall participate in any particular Tag-Along Sale and the number of shares of Capital Stock (within the relevant allotment) to be sold by each of them; provided, that such allocation shall be specified in the Tag-Along Notice.

Section 4.4 Terms of Tag-Along Sale; Cooperation. The participating Stockholders shall cooperate in good faith with the Transferring Party or Senior Preferred Transferring Party, as applicable, and the Company in connection with the consummation of any Tag-Along Sale. Any sales of Capital Stock by a Stockholder as a result of the “Tag-Along Rights” provided under this Article IV shall be on the same terms and conditions as the proposed Tag-Along Sale by the Transferring Party; provided that no Stockholder seeking to sell its Capital Stock in a Tag-Along Sale shall be required to make representations and warranties other than with respect to title to such Stockholder’s Capital Stock, authority to enter into the relevant transaction and other customary matters as to which a seller of a minority interest would make representations and warranties in a similar situation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the liability of any Stockholder participating in any Tag-Along Sale under any indemnity, holdback or similar arrangement shall be similar to that of the Transferring Party; provided, that the liability of any Stockholder under any such indemnity, holdback or similar provision shall be several and not joint and shall be limited to the gross proceeds received by such Stockholder in connection with the Tag-Along Sale or Senior Preferred Tag-Along Sale, as the case may be.

Section 4.5 Authority to Record Transfer/Delivery of Certificates. On the Tag-Along Sale Date, each Stockholder, if a participant in the applicable Tag-Along Sale, (a) authorizes the Company (or the Company’s transfer agent, if any) to record in the Company’s books and records the transfer of all of such Stockholder’s Capital Stock included in such Tag-Along Sale which are not represented by one or more certificates, from the Stockholder to the purchaser in the Tag-Along Sale and (b) shall deliver all certificates, if any, which represent Capital Stock owned by such Stockholder included in such Tag-Along Sale, duly endorsed for transfer with signatures guaranteed, to the purchaser in the Tag-Along Sale, in the manner and at the address indicated in the Tag-Along Notice, in each case against delivery of the purchase price for such shares. In addition, each Stockholder, if a participant in the applicable Tag-Along Sale, shall take all action the Transferring Party or the purchaser in the Tag-Along Sale shall reasonably request as necessary to vest in the purchaser in the Tag-Along Sale all Capital Stock owned by such Stockholder included in such Tag Along Sale, whether in certificated or uncertificated form, free and clear of all liens, charges and encumbrances of any kind.

Section 4.6 Exempt Transfers. The provisions of this Article IV shall not apply to (a) any sale of Capital Stock in a bona fide underwritten public offering of Capital Stock pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act or if the relevant class of Capital Stock is listed or traded on the New York Stock Exchange, AMEX or the NASDAQ National Market, any bona fide public distribution of Capital Stock pursuant to Rule 144 thereunder; (b) any bona fide pledge by MW or a GEI Party of Capital Stock to a commercial bank, savings and loan institution or any other similar lending institution as security for any indebtedness to such lender or any sale upon foreclosure of any such pledge; (c) any transfer, sale or other disposition of Capital Stock by a GEI Party to any other Person controlled directly or indirectly by ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ & Partners, L.P. or any of its Affiliates; provided, that such other Person complies with the provisions of Section 2.1 hereof; (d) redemption by the Company of its Capital Stock; provided that such redemption is made pro rata among all holders of the class of Capital Stock being redeemed; (e) any GEI Distribution (as defined in Article X); (f) any Transfer or proposed Transfer of Common Stock or Junior Preferred Stock by any GEI Party to MW (or a Permitted Transferee); or (g) any Transfer or proposed Transfer of Common Stock by a GEI Party if such Transfer of Common Stock is made in connection with a Transfer of Senior Preferred Stock; provided, that, such Transfers of Common Stock in connection with Transfers of Senior Preferred Stock by the GEI Parties, together with all prior Transfers of Common Stock in connection with Transfers of Senior Preferred Stock, do not exceed 10% of the Common Stock owned by the GEI Parties immediately following the effective time of the Merger. The GEI Parties agree that any Transfer of Senior Preferred Stock described in clause (g) of the preceding sentence shall be a bona fide Transfer and that they will not offer to sell shares of Senior Preferred Stock with shares of Common Stock in order to circumvent the rights of MW in this Article IV.

Section 4.7 Tag-Along on Transfers of Common Stock with Senior Preferred Stock.

(a) If any GEI Party proposes to Transfer shares of Common Stock in connection with a Transfer of Senior Preferred Stock to a third party that is not an Affiliate of GEI, then GEI shall afford the Executive Stockholders the opportunity to participate proportionately in the Transfer of such Tag-Along Sale in accordance with this Article IV.

(b) GEI shall provide the Executive Stockholders with a Tag-Along Sale Notice not more than sixty (60) nor less than twenty-five (25) days prior to the proposed Tag-Along Sale Date for the transaction described in Section 4.7(a). The Tag-Along Sale Notice shall set forth: (i) the number of shares of Common Stock and Senior Preferred Stock proposed to be transferred or sold; (ii) the proposed amount and form of consideration to be paid for such shares and the terms and conditions of payment offered by each proposed purchaser; (iii) the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock, held of record by the GEI Parties as of the close of business on the day immediately preceding the Tag-Along Notice Date; (iv) the Tag-Along Allotment(s) of the Executive Stockholders (as determined pursuant to Section 4.7(c) assuming such Stockholders elected to sell the maximum number of shares of Common Stock as possible; (v) confirmation that the proposed purchaser or transferee has been informed of the “Tag-Along Rights” provided for in this Article IV and has agreed to purchase the Common Stock in accordance with the terms hereof; and (vi) the Tag-Along Sale Date.

(c) For purposes of this Section 4.7, the Tag-Along Allotment of an Executive Stockholder (and his or her Permitted Transferees) shall be a number of shares of Common Stock determined by multiplying (a) the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by such Executive Stockholder (and his or her Permitted Transferees) as of the close of business on the day immediately prior to the Tag-Along Notice Date by (b) a fraction, the numerator of which shall equal the number of shares of Common Stock proposed to be sold or otherwise disposed of pursuant to the transaction described in Section 4.7(a) and the denominator of which shall equal the total number of shares of Common Stock, as applicable, that are beneficially owned by the GEI Parties as of the close of business on the day immediately prior to the Tag-Along Notice Date.

(d) If an Executive Stockholder wishes to participate in the Tag-Along Sale, it shall provide a Tag-Along Notice to GEI and the Company within fifteen (15) days following the receipt of the Tag-Along Sale Notice. The Tag-Along Notice shall set forth the number of shares of Common Stock that such Stockholder elects to include in the Tag-Along Sale, which shall not exceed such Stockholder’s Tag-Along Allotment. The Tag-Along Notice shall constitute such Stockholder’s binding agreement to sell the Common Stock specified in such Tag-Along Notice on the terms and conditions applicable to the Tag-Along Sale, subject to the provisions of Section 4.4; provided, however, that in the event that there is any material change in the terms and conditions of such Tag-Along Sale after such Stockholder gives its Tag-Along Notice, then, notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, such Stockholder shall have the right to withdraw from participation in the Tag-Along Sale with respect to all of its Common Stock affected thereby; provided, further, that if an Executive Stockholder includes in the Tag-Along Sale Notice a statement to the effect that the price per share of Common Stock specified in the Tag-Along Notice does not represent an arms-length valuation for the Common Stock to be Transferred together with the Senior Preferred Stock, then the price per share of Common Stock to be paid in the Tag-Along Sale shall be determined by mutual agreement of GEI and MW. If MW and GEI cannot agree to such valuation within 10 business days of the date of the Tag-Along Notice then they shall engage a mutually acceptable investment banking firm or independent appraiser to determine the fair market value of the Common Stock. The determination of such firm or appraiser shall be final and binding upon the parties. The costs and expenses incurred in connection with the determination made by the investment banking firm or independent appraiser shall be borne by the Company. In the event the price per share of

Common Stock determined pursuant to this Section 4.7(d) (the “Agreed Price”) is greater than the price specified in the Tag-Along Sale Notice, the GEI Parties shall, at their option either (x) pay the applicable Executive Stockholder an amount (the “Make-Up Amount”) equal to the product of the number of shares of Common Stock included in the Tag-Along Sale pursuant to this Section 4.7 and the difference between the Agreed Price and the price per share specified in the Tag-Along sale or (y) arrange for the purchaser in such Tag-Along Sale to pay the Make-Up Amount directly to the applicable Executive Stockholder. In the event the Agreed Price is less than the price specified in the Tag-Along Sale Notice, the applicable Executive Stockholder, shall, upon receipt of the purchase price from the purchaser, pay the relevant GEI Parties an amount equal to the product of the number of shares of Common Stock included by the applicable Executive Stockholder in the Tag-Along Sale and the difference between the price per share specified in the Tag-Along Sale Notice and the Agreed Price.

(e) If a Tag-Along Notice is not received by GEI from an Executive Stockholder within the 15-day period specified above, the GEI Parties shall have the right to sell or otherwise transfer the number of shares specified in the Tag-Along Notice to the proposed purchaser or transferee without any participation by such Executive Stockholder, but only on terms and conditions which are no more favorable in any material respect to the GEI Parties than as are stated in the Tag-Along Notice and only if such Tag-Along Sale occurs on a date within sixty (60) business days of the Tag-Along Sale Date. If such Tag-Along Sale does not occur within such sixty-day period, the Common Stock that was to be subject to such Tag-Along Sale thereafter shall continue to be subject to all of the provisions of this Article IV.

(f) All calculations and allocations of Tag-Along Allotments shall be made by aggregating shares of Common Stock held by the GEI Parties, on the one hand, and an Executive Officer and his or her Permitted Transferees, on the other hand. Once such calculation and/or allocation has been determined, the Executive Stockholder and his or her Permitted Transferees may determine among themselves, which shall participate in any particular Tag-Along Sale and the number of shares of Common Stock (within the Tag-Along Allotment) to be sold by each of them; provided, that such allocation shall be specified in the Tag-Along Notice.

(g) Section 4.4 and 4.5 shall apply to any Tag-Along Sale described in this Section 4.7.

Section 4.8 Preemptive Rights.

(a) In the event of a Company Preemptive Rights Transaction (as defined below), MW (and his Permitted Transferees) and the GEI Parties (the “Preemptive Rights Holders”) shall have the preemptive right (the “Preemptive Right”) to purchase Covered Securities (as defined below) on the terms and subject to the conditions of this Section 4.8.

(iii) “Covered Security” means any equity security of the Company (including, without limitation, Common Stock, Junior Preferred Stock and Senior Preferred Stock) and any Derivative Security.

(iv) “Derivative Security” means any security of the Company or any of its subsidiaries exercisable for, or convertible or exchangeable into, an equity security of the Company, including options, warrants and convertible debt securities.

(c) Such Preemptive Right will be offered to each Preemptive Rights Holder (such offer, the “Preemptive Rights Offer”) pursuant to a written notice from the Company delivered no less than 30 days and no more than 60 days prior to the proposed Company Preemptive Rights Transaction offering such Preemptive Rights Holders the Covered Securities on the same terms and conditions as offered to the other proposed purchaser(s) in the Company Preemptive Rights Transaction (such written notice, the “Preemptive Rights Notice”). The Preemptive Rights Notice will specify the material terms and conditions of the offering, including (i) the aggregate offering amount and offering price per share, (ii) the identity of each proposed purchaser, (iii) the number of Covered Securities proposed to be acquired by each proposed purchaser, and (iv) all written financial information and other disclosures provided by the Company to any other proposed purchaser in such offering.

(d) Each Preemptive Rights Holder will have 20 days from the date of the Preemptive Rights Notice to notify the Company and other Preemptive Rights Holder in writing of its binding acceptance of such Preemptive Rights Offer (a “Subscription Notice”), on the same terms and conditions as set forth in such Preemptive Rights Offer, with respect to all or any portion of the Covered Securities which is offered to such Preemptive Rights Holder pursuant to the Preemptive Rights Offer; provided, that, if at the time of the delivery of the Preemptive Rights Notice, the Company is unable to specify the price or other consideration for which the Covered Securities are to be sold, then (i) the Company shall (A) use commercially reasonable efforts to include in the Preemptive Rights Notice as much information as possible regarding the contemplated pricing of the transaction and (B) notify the Preemptive Rights Holders as promptly as practicable after delivery of the Preemptive Rights Notice of the final pricing and (ii) each Preemptive Rights Holder shall have at least 5 business days following the receipt of final pricing information to deliver a Subscription Notice.

(e) If the Company Preemptive Rights Transaction is consummated, each Preemptive Rights Holder delivering a Subscription Notice shall have the right to purchase from the Company, and the Company shall be required to sell to each such Preemptive Rights Holder, at the proposed issuance price, up to an amount of Covered Securities (rounded up to avoid fractional Covered Securities) equal to (i) if the Covered Securities consist of (x) shares of Common Stock, or (y) shares of Junior Preferred Stock or Senior Preferred Stock, such number of additional shares of Common Stock, Junior Preferred Stock or Senior Preferred Stock, as the case may be, as shall enable such Preemptive Rights Holder to maintain its then current Aggregate Percentage and (ii) in the case of any other Covered Securities, the product of (A) the total number of Covered Securities proposed to be issued multiplied by (B) a fraction, the numerator of which shall be equal to the number of shares of Common Stock then owned by such Preemptive Rights Holder (which in the case of MW (or his Permitted Transferees to the extent MW does not own any shares of the relevant stock in his individual capacity) will include the aggregate number of outstanding shares of Common Stock held on such date by all other Executive Stockholders) and the denominator of which shall be equal to the total number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding.

(f) In the event that any Preemptive Rights Holder elects to purchase Covered Securities pursuant to this Section 4.8, the closing of the applicable Preemptive Rights Offer

shall be consummated concurrently with the respective issuance of Covered Securities to the other purchasers in such offering; provided, that at the election of the Company, the closing of the sale to the Preemptive Rights Holders may be delayed to the extent necessary to comply with the provisions of Section 4.8(d).

(g) Any Covered Security proposed to be issued and not purchased by any Preemptive Rights Holder pursuant to Section 4.8(e) may be sold by the Company to any other Person on terms and conditions that are no more favorable to such Person in any material respect than those specified in the Preemptive Rights Notice or any supplement thereto delivered to the Preemptive Rights Holders in accordance with the proviso to Section 4.8(d).

(h) In the event of a Company Preemptive Rights Transaction involving the sale of Covered Securities for consideration other than cash, then the consideration to be paid by the Preemptive Rights Holders exercising Preemptive Rights shall be determined (i) in accordance with Section 3.6 in the case of consideration consisting of Marketable Securities or (ii) in the case of consideration other than Marketable Securities, the value of such consideration shall be determined by mutual agreement of the relevant Preemptive Rights Holder(s) and the Company; provided, that if the Preemptive Rights Holders and the Company cannot agree to such valuation within 10 business days of the date of the Preemptive Rights Notice (or, if the Preemptive Rights Notice did not specify the consideration to be paid in the Company Preemptive Rights Transaction, 10 business days from the date that notice of such consideration was actually given to the Preemptive Rights Holders), then (x) the Company and the Preemptive Rights Holders holding a majority of the Common Stock held by all Preemptive Rights Holders party to this Agreement shall engage a mutually acceptable investment banking firm or independent appraiser to determine the fair market value of the consideration. The determination of such firm or appraiser shall be final and binding upon the Preemptive Rights Holders and the Company. The costs and expenses incurred in connection with the determination made by the investment banking firm or independent appraiser shall be borne by the Company.

(i) At any closing held pursuant to this Section 4.8, the purchase price for the purchase for the relevant securities shall be paid in cash (by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account specified in writing by the Company at least three (3) business days prior to the date of such closing) or by certified or official bank check.

Section 4.9 Termination of Tag-Along and Preemptive Rights. The provisions of this Article IV shall expire upon the occurrence of a Public Offering Event.

There shall be no limit to the number of occasions on which any Registration Party may make Demands, including with respect to requests for the filing of a Shelf Registration Statement; provided, that no Registration Party (other than MW or his Permitted Transferees) shall be entitled to make a Demand pursuant to this Section 5.2 unless such Registration Party, together with all other Registration Parties delivering the Demand, are requesting the registration of Capital Stock with an aggregate estimated market value of at least $25,000,000. In connection with the Transfer of Registrable Securities to any Person, a Registration Party may assign (i) the right to exercise one Demand pursuant to this Section 5.2(a) with respect to each $25,000,000 in fair market value of consideration received by such Registration Party in such Transfer and (y) the right to participate in any registration pursuant to the terms of Section 5.3; provided, that in no event shall any such transferee have the right to effect a Demand for a Shelf Registration Statement or require management of the Company to participate in any road show pursuant to Section 5.7(p) unless such transferee owns at least 15% of the outstanding Common Stock. In the event of any such assignment, references to the Registration Parties in this Section 5.2(a) and in Section 5.4(a) shall be deemed to refer to the relevant transferee, as appropriate. The relevant Registration Party shall give prompt written notice of any such assignment to the Company and the other Stockholders. Notwithstanding the foregoing, prior to the initial public offering of Capital Stock by the Company, no Demand by a Registration Party shall be effective, and the Company shall not be required to take the actions described in this Section 5.2(a) without the affirmative consent or approval of a majority of the Non-Management Directors.

(b) Initial Public Offering. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 5.2, (x) no Registration Party (other than a GEI Party) may demand the registration of Junior Preferred Stock, Senior Preferred Stock or any other class of securities (other than Common Stock) pursuant to a Demand unless the relevant class of securities is, prior to delivery of the Demand, listed or traded on the New York Stock Exchange, AMEX or the Nasdaq National Market.

(c) Company Blackout Rights. With respect to any registration statement filed, or to be filed, pursuant to this Section 5.2, if (A) the Company determines in good faith that such registration would cause the Company to disclose material non-public information which disclosure (x) would be required to be made in any registration statement so that such registration statement would not be materially misleading, (y) would not be required to be made at such time but for the filing or effectiveness of such registration statement and (z) would be materially detrimental to the Company or would materially interfere with any material financing, acquisition, corporate reorganization or merger or other similar transaction involving the Company or any of its subsidiaries and that, as a result of such potential disclosure or interference, it is in the best interests of the Company to defer the filing or effectiveness of such registration statement at such time, and (B) the Company promptly furnishes to the Selling Holders a certificate signed by the chief executive officer of the Company to that effect, then the Company shall have the right to defer such filing or effectiveness for the period necessary, as determined by the Board of Directors of the Company in good faith, provided, that such deferral, together with any other deferral or suspension of the Company’s obligations under Section 5.2 or Section 5.4, shall not be effected for a period of more than ninety (90) days, in the aggregate, for all such deferrals or suspensions over any twelve-month period. The Company shall promptly notify the Selling Holders of the expiration of any period during which it exercised its rights under this Section 5.2(b). The Company agrees that, in the event it exercises its rights under this Section 5.2(b), it shall, as promptly as practicable following the expiration of the applicable deferral period, file or update and use its best efforts to cause the effectiveness of, as applicable, the applicable deferred registration statement.

(d) Fulfillment of Registration Obligations. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, a registration requested pursuant to this Section 5.2 shall not be deemed to have been effected (i) unless it has become effective, (ii) if after it has become effective such registration is interfered with by any stop order, injunction or other order or requirement of the Commission or other governmental agency or court for any reason other than a misrepresentation or an omission by a Registration Party and, as a result thereof, the Registrable Securities requested to be registered cannot be completely distributed in accordance with the plan of distribution set forth in the related registration statement; provided, that if such registration is a shelf registration pursuant to Section 5.4, such registration shall be deemed to have been effected if such registration statement remains effective for the period specified in Section 5.4, (iii) if not a shelf registration and the registration does not contemplate an underwritten offering, if it does not remain effective for at least one hundred eighty (180) days (or such shorter period as will terminate when all securities covered by such registration statement have been sold or withdrawn); or if not a shelf registration and such registration statement contemplates an underwritten offering, if it does not remain effective for at least one hundred eighty (180) days plus such longer period as, in the opinion of counsel for the underwriter or underwriters, a prospectus is required by law to be delivered in connection with the sale of Registrable Securities by an underwriter or dealer or (iv) in the event of an underwritten offering, if the conditions to closing specified in the purchase agreement or underwriting agreement entered into in connection with such registration are not satisfied or waived other than by reason of some wrongful act or omission by a Registration Party.

Section 5.3 Piggyback Registration Rights.

(a) In the event that the Company at any time proposes or is required to register any of its Capital Stock or any other securities under the Securities Act (including pursuant to Section 5.2 hereof), whether or not for sale for its own account, in a manner that would permit registration of Registrable Securities for sale for cash to the public under the Securities Act, subject to the last sentence of this Section 5.3(a), it shall at each such time give prompt written notice (the “Piggyback Notice”) to each Stockholder of its intention to do so, which Piggyback Notice shall specify the number and class or classes (or type or types) of Registrable Securities to be registered. Upon the written request of any Stockholder made within fifteen (15) business days after receipt of the Piggyback Notice by such Person (which request shall specify the number of Registrable Securities intended to be disposed of), subject to the other provisions of this Article V, the Company shall effect, in connection with the registration of such Capital Stock or other securities, the registration under the Securities Act of all Registrable Securities which the Company has been so requested to register; provided, that in no event shall the Company be required to register pursuant to this Section 5.3 any securities of a class or type other than the classes or types described in the Piggyback Notice. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 5.3, the Company shall not be required to effect any registration of Registrable Securities under this Section 5.3 incidental to the registration of any of its securities on Forms S-4 or S-8 (or any similar or successor form providing for the registration of securities in connection with mergers, acquisitions, exchange offers, subscription offers, dividend reinvestment plans or stock option or other executive or employee benefit or compensation plans) or any other form that would not be available for registration of Registrable Securities.

(b) Determination Not to Effect Registration. If at any time after giving such Piggyback Notice and prior to the effective date of the registration statement filed in connection with such registration the Company shall determine for any reason (including the withdrawal by any Stockholder exercising a Demand) not to register the securities originally intended to be included in such registration, the Company may, at its election, give written notice of such determination to the Selling Holders and thereupon the Company shall be relieved of its obligation to register such Registrable Securities in connection with the registration of securities originally intended to be included in such registration, without prejudice, however, to the right of a Registration Party immediately to request that such registration be effected as a registration under Section 5.2 (including a shelf registration under Section 5.4) to the extent permitted thereunder.

(c) Cutbacks in Company Offering. If the registration referred to in the first sentence of Section 5.3(a) is to be an underwritten registration on behalf of the Company, and the lead underwriter or managing underwriter advises the Company in writing (with a copy to each Selling Holder) that, in such firm’s good faith view, the number of Other Securities and Registrable Securities requested to be included in such registration exceeds the number which can be sold in such offering without being likely to have a significant adverse effect upon the price, timing or distribution of the offering and sale of the Other Securities and Registrable Securities then contemplated, the Company shall include in such registration:

(i) first, all Company Securities; and

(ii) second, Registrable Securities and Other Securities that are requested to be included in such registration pursuant to this Section 5.3 and the terms of any other registration rights agreement to which the Company is a party that can be sold without having the adverse effect referred to above, pro rata on the basis of the relative number of such Registrable Securities and Other Securities owned by the Persons seeking such registration.

(d) Cutbacks in Other Offerings. If the registration referred to in the first sentence of Section 5.3(a) is to be an underwritten registration other than on behalf of the Company, and the lead underwriter or managing underwriter advises the Selling Holders in writing (with a copy to the Company) that, in such firm’s good faith view, the number of Registrable Securities and Other Securities requested to be included in such registration exceeds the number which can be sold in such offering without being likely to have a significant adverse effect upon the price, timing or distribution of the offering and sale of the Registrable Securities and Other Securities then contemplated, the Company shall include in such registration:

(i) first, the Other Securities held by any holder thereof with a contractual right to include such Other Securities in such registration prior to any other Person; and

(ii) second, Registrable Securities and Other Securities (other than Company Securities) that are requested to be included in such registration pursuant to Section 5.2, this Section 5.3 and the terms of any other registration rights agreement to which the Company is a party that can be sold without having the adverse effect referred to above, pro rata on the basis of the relative number of such Registrable Securities and Other Securities owned by the Persons seeking such registration.

(e) Expiration. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the right of any Stockholder to include securities of a particular class in a registration pursuant to this Section 5.3 shall expire at such time as all Registrable Securities of such class held by such Stockholder are eligible to be sold to the public pursuant to Rule 144 without limitation as a result of the volume restrictions set forth therein.

Section 5.4 Shelf Registration. (a) General; Duration. Any Registration Party shall have the right at any time, and from time to time, to request, in connection with delivery of a Demand Notice, that the Company prepare and file with the Commission a “shelf” registration statement (the “Shelf Registration Statement”) on the appropriate form for an offering to be made, covering the Registrable Securities requested to be included therein, on a continuous or delayed basis pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act (or any successor rule or similar provision then in effect) in the manner or manners designated by such Registration Party (including, without limitation, one or more underwritten offerings). Subject to Section 5.7(b), the Company shall use its best efforts to have the Shelf Registration Statement declared effective by the Commission as soon as practicable and to keep such Shelf Registration Statement continuously effective and free of material misstatements or omissions (including the preparation and filing of any amendments and supplements necessary for that purpose) until the earlier of (i) the date on which the Registration Party and all other Selling Holders have consummated the sale of all Registrable Securities registered under the Shelf Registration Statement or (ii) twelve

months from the date the Shelf Registration Statement first became effective, subject to extension (A) pursuant to Section 5.4(b)(ii) or (B) for any period of time during which the offering of Registrable Securities pursuant to such Shelf Registration Statement is interfered with by a stop order, injunction or other order or requirement of the Commission or any other governmental agency or court.

(a) Company Blackout Rights.

(i) Prior to Effectiveness. With respect to any Shelf Registration Statement filed, or to be filed, pursuant to this Section 5.4, (x) if the Company determines in good faith that such registration would cause the Company to disclose material non-public information which disclosure (i) would be required to be made in any registration statement so that such registration statement would not be materially misleading, (ii) would not be required to be made at such time but for the filing or effectiveness of such registration statement and (iii) would be materially detrimental to the Company or would materially interfere with any material financing, acquisition, corporate reorganization or merger involving the Company and any of its subsidiaries and that, as a result of such potential disclosure or interference, it is in the best interests of the Company to defer the filing or effectiveness of such Shelf Registration Statement at such time, and (y) the Company promptly furnishes to the Registration Party and any other Persons participating in such registration a certificate signed by the chief executive officer of the Company to that effect, then the Company shall have the right to defer such filing or effectiveness, provided, that such deferral, together with any other deferral or suspension of its obligations under Section 5.2 or Section 5.4, shall not be effected for a period of more than ninety (90) days, in the aggregate, for all such deferrals or suspensions over any twelve-month period. The Company shall promptly notify the Selling Holders of the expiration of any period during which it exercised its rights under this Section 5.4(b)(i). The Company agrees that, in the event it exercises its rights under this Section 5.4(b)(i), it shall, as promptly as practicable following expiration of the applicable deferral period, file or update and use its best efforts to cause the effectiveness of, as applicable, the applicable deferred Shelf Registration Statement.

(ii) Following Effectiveness. Following effectiveness of any Shelf Registration Statement pursuant to this Section 5.4, (x) if the Company determines in good faith that the availability of the Shelf Registration Statement for use would cause the Company to disclose material non-public information which disclosure (i) would be required to be made in any registration statement so that such registration statement would not be materially misleading, (ii) would not be required to be made at such time but for the continued use of such registration statement and (iii) would be materially detrimental to the Company or would materially interfere with any material financing, acquisition, corporate reorganization or merger or other similar transaction involving the Company or any of its Subsidiaries and that, as a result of such potential disclosure or interference, it is in the best interests of the Company to suspend the use of such Shelf Registration Statement at such time, and (y) the Company promptly

furnishes to the Registration Party and each other Person participating in such Shelf Registration Statement a certificate signed by the chief executive officer of the Company to that effect, then the Company shall have the right to suspend the use of such Shelf Registration Statement, provided, that such suspension, together with any other suspension or deferral of its obligations under Section 5.2 or Section 5.4, shall not be effected for a period of more than ninety (90) days, in the aggregate, for all such suspensions or deferrals over any twelve-month period. The Company agrees that, in the event it exercises its rights under this Section 5.4(b)(ii), it shall, as promptly as practicable following expiration of the applicable suspension period, update the suspended Shelf Registration Statement as may be necessary to permit the Selling Holders to resume use thereof in connection with the offer and sale of their Registrable Securities in accordance with applicable law. The minimum period of time during which the applicable Shelf Registration Statement must remain effective pursuant to Section 5.4(a) shall be extended by the number of days during the period from and including the date of delivery to the Selling Holders of the certificate contemplated by the first sentence of this Section 5.4(b)(ii) and ending on the date that the Company gives notice as provided herein that such suspension has ended.

(b) Supplements and Amendments. The Company agrees, if necessary, to supplement or amend the Shelf Registration Statement, as required by the rules, regulations or instructions applicable to the registration form used by the Company for such Shelf Registration Statement or by the Securities Act or as otherwise required by this Agreement, and shall use its reasonable best efforts to have such supplements and amendments declared effective, if required, as soon as practicable after filing.

(c) Fulfillment of Registration Obligations. A registration will not be deemed to have been effected pursuant to a Shelf Registration Statement unless (x) the provisions of Section 5.2(c) and 5.4(a) are fulfilled with respect to such Shelf Registration Statement and (y) the Shelf Registration Statement with respect thereto has remained effective for the minimum period of time required by Section 5.4(a), as extended as provided in Section 5.4(a).

(d) Shelf Underwritten Offerings. At any time that a Shelf Registration Statement is effective, if a Registration Party delivers a notice to the Company (a “Shelf Underwriting Notice”) stating that it intends to effect a Shelf Underwritten Offering of all or part of its Registrable Securities included by it on the Shelf Registration Statement and stating the aggregate offering price and/or number of the Registrable Securities to be included in the Shelf Underwritten Offering, then the Company shall amend or supplement the Shelf Registration Statement as may be necessary in order to enable such Registrable Securities to be distributed pursuant to the Shelf Underwritten Offering (taking into account the inclusion of Registrable Securities and Other Securities by any Stockholders or holders of Other Securities pursuant to this Section 5.4(e) or the terms of any other registration rights agreement to which the Company may be a party). In connection with any Shelf Underwritten Offering:

(i) the Company shall deliver a copy of the Shelf Underwriting Notice to all Stockholders and permit each such Stockholder to include its Registrable Securities on the Shelf Registration Statement in the Shelf Underwritten Offering if such Stockholder seeking to so include Registrable Securities notifies the

Registration Party and the Company of such request, specifying the aggregate amount of Registrable Securities to be included, within five business days after receipt of the Shelf Underwriting Notice thereby; provided, that in no event shall the Company be required to include pursuant to this Section 5.4(e) any securities of a class or type other than the classes or types described in the Shelf Underwriting Notice; and

(ii) if the lead or managing underwriter of a proposed Shelf Underwritten Offering informs the Selling Holders in writing (with a copy to the Company) that, in its good faith view, the number of securities of such class requested to be included in such offering exceeds the number which can be sold in such offering without being likely to have a significant adverse effect on the price, timing or distribution of the offering and sale of the Registrable Securities and Other Securities to be sold in such offering, then (A) the number of Registrable Securities and Other Securities which will be included in the Shelf Underwritten Offering shall only be that number which, in the good faith opinion of such lead or managing underwriter, can be included without being likely to have a significant adverse effect on the price, timing or distribution of the offering and the sale of the Registrable Securities and Other Securities then contemplated, and (2) each Holder shall be entitled to include Registrable Securities or Other Securities in the Shelf Underwritten Offering in the manner set forth in Section 5.3(d) with respect to allocations in a requested registration.

Section 5.5 Selection of Underwriters. In the event that any registration pursuant to Section 5.2 shall involve, in whole or in part, an underwritten offering, the two Stockholders who have requested the largest number of shares of Common Stock to be included in the registration (or, if no shares of Common Stock are to be included in the registration, the largest number of other Registrable Securities) shall have the right to designate the underwriter or underwriters; provided, that selection of such underwriters shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Company.

Section 5.6 Withdrawal Rights; Expenses. (a) A Selling Holder may withdraw all or any part of its Registrable Securities from any registration (including a registration effected pursuant to Section 5.2) by giving written notice to the Company of its request to withdraw at any time. Except in the case of a withdrawal of Registrable Securities made within thirty (30) days of receipt by such Selling Holder of a certificate or notice from the Company that it will defer the filing or effectiveness of a registration statement pursuant to Section 5.2(b) or 5.4(b), the Company shall be entitled to reimbursement for any Commission registration fees incurred by the Company in connection with the registration of the Registrable Securities so withdrawn (unless such registration fees can be used in connection with the registration of other securities by the Company, including in connection with a future registration). In the case of a withdrawal prior to the effective date of a registration statement, any Registrable Securities so withdrawn shall be reallocated among the remaining participants in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Agreement.

(a) Except as provided herein, the Company shall pay all Registration Expenses with respect to a particular offering (or proposed offering). Except as provided herein each Selling Holder and the Company shall be responsible for its own fees and expenses of

counsel and financial advisors and their internal administrative and similar costs, as well as their respective pro rata shares of underwriters’ commissions and discounts, which shall not constitute Registration Expenses.

Section 5.7 Registration and Qualification. If and whenever the Company is required to effect the registration of any Registrable Securities under the Securities Act as provided in this Article V, the Company shall as promptly as practicable:

(a) Registration Statement. Prepare and (as soon thereafter as practicable and in any event, no later than sixty (60) days after the end of the applicable period specified in Section 5.2(a)(ii) within which requests for registration may be given to the Company) file a registration statement under the Securities Act relating to the Registrable Securities to be offered and use its best efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective as promptly as practicable thereafter; furnish to the lead underwriter or underwriters, if any, and to the Selling Holders who have requested that Registrable Securities be covered by such registration statement, prior to the filing thereof with the Commission, a copy of the registration statement, and each amendment thereof, and a copy of any prospectus, and each amendment or supplement thereto (excluding amendments caused by the filing of a report under the Exchange Act), and shall use its reasonable best efforts to reflect in each such document, when so filed with the Commission, such comments as such Persons reasonably may on a timely basis propose;

(b) Amendments; Supplements. Prepare and file with the Commission such amendments and supplements to such registration statement and the prospectus used in connection therewith as may be (i) reasonably requested by any Selling Holder (to the extent such request relates to information relating to such Selling Holder), or (ii) necessary to keep such registration statement effective and to comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all Registrable Securities until the earlier of (A) such time as all of such Registrable Securities have been disposed of in accordance with the intended methods of disposition set forth in such registration statement and (B) if a shelf registration, the expiration of the applicable period specified in Section 5.4(a) and, if not a shelf registration, the applicable period specified in Section 5.2(c)(iii); provided, that any such required period provided for in Section 5.4(a) or this 5.7(b) shall be extended for such number of days (x) during any period from and including the date any written notice contemplated by paragraph (f) below is given by the Company until the date on which the Company delivers to the Selling Holders the supplement or amendment contemplated by paragraph (f) below or written notice that the use of the prospectus may be resumed, as the case may be, and (y) during which the offering of Registrable Securities pursuant to such registration statement is interfered with by any stop order, injunction or other order or requirement of the Commission or any other governmental agency or court or by actions taken by the Company pursuant to Section 5.4(b)(ii); provided, further, that the Company will have no obligation to a Selling Holder participating on a “piggyback” basis in a registration statement that has become effective to keep such registration statement effective for a period beyond one hundred twenty (120) days from the effective date of such registration statement.

(c) Copies. Furnish to the Selling Holders and to any underwriter of such Registrable Securities such number of conformed copies of such registration statement and of each such amendment and supplement thereto (in each case including all exhibits), such number of copies of the prospectus included in such registration statement (including each preliminary

prospectus and any summary prospectus), in conformity with the requirements of the Securities Act, such documents incorporated by reference in such registration statement or prospectus, and such other documents, as such Selling Holders or such underwriter may reasonably request, and upon request a copy of any and all transmittal letters or other correspondence to or received from, the Commission or any other governmental agency or self-regulatory body or other body having jurisdiction (including any domestic or foreign securities exchange) relating to such offering;

(d) Blue Sky.

Section 5.8 Underwriting; Due Diligence. (a) If requested by the underwriters for any underwritten offering of Registrable Securities pursuant to a registration requested under this Article V, the Company shall enter into an underwriting agreement with such underwriters for such offering, which agreement will contain such representations and warranties by the Company and such other terms and provisions as are customarily contained in underwriting agreements generally with respect to secondary distributions to the extent relevant, including, without limitation, indemnification and contribution provisions substantially to the effect and to the extent provided in Section 5.9, and agreements as to the provision of opinions of counsel and accountants’ letters to the effect and to the extent provided in Section 5.7(e). The Selling Holders on whose behalf the Registrable Securities are to be distributed by such underwriters shall be parties to any such underwriting agreement, and the representations and warranties by, and the other agreements on the part of, the Company to and for the benefit of such underwriters, shall also be made to and for the benefit of such Selling Holders and the conditions precedent to

the obligations of such underwriters under such underwriting agreement shall also be conditions precedent to the obligations of such Selling Holders to the extent applicable. Subject to the following sentence, such underwriting agreement shall also contain such representations and warranties by such Selling Holders and such other terms and provisions as are customarily contained in underwriting agreements with respect to secondary distributions, when relevant. No Selling Holder shall be required in any such underwriting agreement or related documents to make any representations or warranties to or agreements with the Company or the underwriters other than customary representations, warranties or agreements regarding such Selling Holder’s title to Registrable Securities and any written information provided by the Selling Holder to the Company expressly for inclusion in the related registration statement.

(b) In connection with the preparation and filing of each registration statement registering Registrable Securities under the Securities Act pursuant to this Article V, the Company shall make available upon reasonable notice at reasonable times and for reasonable periods for inspection by each Selling Holder, by any managing underwriter or underwriters participating in any disposition to be effected pursuant to such registration statement, and by any attorney, accountant or other agent retained by any Selling Holder or any managing underwriter, all pertinent financial and other records, pertinent corporate documents and properties of the Company, and cause all of the Company’s officers, directors and employees and the independent public accountants who have certified the Company’s financial statements to make themselves available to discuss the business of the Company and to supply all information reasonably requested by any such Selling Holders, managing underwriters, attorneys, accountants or agents in connection with such registration statement as shall be necessary to enable them to exercise their due diligence responsibility (subject to entry by each party referred to in this clause (b) into customary confidentiality agreements in a form reasonably acceptable to the Company);

(c) In the case of an underwritten offering requested by the Registration Parties pursuant to Section 5.2 or Section 5.4, the price, underwriting discount and other financial terms for the Registrable Securities of the related underwriting agreement shall be determined by the Selling Holders. In the case of any underwritten offering of securities by the Company pursuant to Section 5.3, such price, discount and other terms shall be determined by the Company, subject to the right of Selling Holders to withdraw their Registrable Securities from the registration pursuant to 5.3(b).

(d) Subject to Section 5.8(a), no Person may participate in an underwritten offering unless such Person (i) agrees to sell such Person’s securities on the basis provided in any underwriting arrangements approved by the Persons entitled to approve such arrangements and (ii) completes and executes all customary questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities, underwriting agreement and other documents reasonably required under the terms of such underwriting arrangements.

Section 5.9 Indemnification and Contribution.

(a) Indemnification by the Company. In the case of each offering of Registrable Securities made pursuant to this Article V, the Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless, to the extent permitted by law, each Selling Holder, each underwriter of Registrable Securities so offered and each Person, if any, who controls or is alleged to control (within the meaning set forth in the Securities Act) any of the foregoing Persons, the Affiliates of

each of the foregoing, and the officers, directors, partners, employees and agents of each of the foregoing, against any and all losses, liabilities, costs (including reasonable attorney’s fees and disbursements), claims and damages, joint or several, to which they or any of them may become subject, under the Securities Act or otherwise, including any amount paid in settlement of any litigation commenced or threatened, insofar as such losses, liabilities, costs, claims and damages (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof, whether or not such indemnified Person is a party thereto) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement by the Company or alleged untrue statement by the Company of a material fact contained in the registration statement (or in any preliminary, final or summary prospectus included therein) or in any offering memorandum or other offering document relating to the offering and sale of such Registrable Securities prepared by the Company or at its direction, or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto, or in any document incorporated by reference therein, or any omission by the Company or alleged omission by the Company to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of a prospectus or preliminary prospectus, in light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading; provided, however, that the Company shall not be liable to any Person in any such case to the extent that any such loss, liability, cost, claim or damage arises out of or relates to any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement, or any omission, if such statement or omission shall have been made in reliance upon and in conformity with information relating to such Person furnished in writing to the Company by or on behalf of such Person expressly for inclusion in the registration statement (or in any preliminary, final or summary prospectus included therein), offering memorandum or other offering document, or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of any such Person and shall survive the transfer of such securities.

(b) Indemnification by Selling Holders. In the case of each offering made pursuant to this Agreement, each Selling Holder, by exercising its registration rights hereunder, agrees to indemnify and hold harmless, to the extent permitted by law, the Company, each other Selling Holder and each Person, if any, who controls or is alleged to control (within the meaning set forth in the Securities Act) any of the foregoing, any Affiliate of any of the foregoing, and the officers, directors, partners, employees and agents of each of the foregoing, against any and all losses, liabilities, costs (including reasonable attorney’s fees and disbursements), claims and damages to which they or any of them may become subject, under the Securities Act or otherwise, including any amount paid in settlement of any litigation commenced or threatened, insofar as such losses, liabilities, costs, claims and damages (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof, whether or not such indemnified Person is a party thereto) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement made by such Selling Holder of a material fact contained in the registration statement (or in any preliminary, final or summary prospectus included therein) relating to the offering and sale of such Registrable Securities prepared by the Company or at its direction, or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto, or any omission by such Selling Holder of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of a prospectus or preliminary prospectus, in light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading, but in each case only to the extent that such untrue statement of a material fact is contained in, or such material fact is omitted from, information relating to such Selling Holder furnished in writing to the Company by or on behalf of such Selling Holder expressly for inclusion in such registration statement (or in any preliminary, final or summary prospectus included therein), or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto. The liability of any Selling

Holder hereunder shall be several and not joint and in no event shall the liability of any Selling Holder hereunder be greater in amount than the dollar amount of the net proceeds received by such Selling Holder under the sale of the Registrable Securities giving rise to such indemnification obligation.

(c) Indemnification Procedures. Each party entitled to indemnification under this Section 5.9 shall give notice to the party required to provide indemnification promptly after such indemnified party has actual knowledge that a claim is to be made against the indemnified party as to which indemnity may be sought, and shall permit the indemnifying party to assume the defense of such claim or litigation resulting therefrom and any related settlement and settlement negotiations, subject to the limitations on settlement set forth below; provided, that counsel for the indemnifying party, who shall conduct the defense of such claim or any litigation resulting therefrom, shall be approved by the indemnified party (whose approval shall not unreasonably be withheld), and the indemnified party may participate in such defense at such party’s expense; and provided, further, that the failure of any indemnified party to give notice as provided herein shall not relieve the indemnifying party of its obligations under this Section 5.9, except to the extent the indemnifying party is actually prejudiced by such failure to give notice. Notwithstanding the foregoing, an indemnified party shall have the right to retain separate counsel, with the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel being paid by the indemnifying party, if representation of such indemnified party by the counsel retained by the indemnifying party would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between such indemnified party and any other party represented by such counsel or if the indemnifying party has failed to assume the defense of such action. No indemnified party shall enter into any settlement of any litigation commenced or threatened with respect to which indemnification is or may be sought without the prior written consent of the indemnifying party (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld). No indemnifying party, in the defense of any such claim or litigation, shall, except with the consent of each indemnified party, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement that does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such indemnified party of a release, reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party, from all liability in respect to such claim or litigation. Each indemnified party shall furnish such information regarding itself or the claim in question as an indemnifying party may reasonably request in writing and as shall be reasonably required in connection with defense of such claim and litigation resulting therefrom.

(d) Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in this Section 5.9 shall for any reason be unavailable (other than in accordance with its terms) to an indemnified party in respect of any loss, liability, cost, claim or damage referred to therein, then each indemnifying party shall, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party, contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such loss, liability, cost, claim or damage in such proportion as shall be appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party on the one hand and the indemnified party on the other with respect to the statements or omissions which resulted in such loss, liability, cost, claim or damage as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault shall be determined by reference to whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the indemnifying party on the one hand or the indemnified party on the other, the intent of the parties and their relative knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The amount paid

or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the loss, cost, claim, damage or liability, or action in respect thereof, referred to above in this paragraph (d) shall be deemed to include, for purposes of this paragraph (d), any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 5.9(d) to the contrary, no indemnifying party (other than the Company) shall be required pursuant to this Section 5.9(d) to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the net proceeds received by such indemnifying party from the sale of Registrable Securities in the offering to which the losses of the indemnified parties relate exceeds the amount of any damages which such indemnifying party has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue statement or omission. The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 5.9(d) were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take into account the equitable considerations referred to in this Section.

(e) Indemnification/Contribution under State Law. Indemnification and contribution similar to that specified in the preceding paragraphs of this Section 5.9 (with appropriate modifications) shall be given by the Company and the Selling Holders and underwriters with respect to any required registration or other qualification of securities under any state law or regulation or governmental authority.

(f) Obligations Not Exclusive. The obligations of the parties under this Section 5.9 shall be in addition to any liability which any party may otherwise have to any other Person.

(g) Survival. For the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of this Section 5.9 shall survive any termination of this Agreement.

Section 5.10 Cooperation; Information by Selling Holder.

(a) It shall be a condition of each Selling Holder’s rights under this Article V that such Selling Holder cooperate with the Company by entering into any undertakings and taking such other action relating to the conduct of the proposed offering which the Company or the underwriters may reasonably request as being necessary to insure compliance with federal and state securities laws and the rules or other requirements of the NASD or which are otherwise customary and which the Company or the underwriters may reasonably request to effectuate the offering.

(b) Each Selling Holder shall furnish to the Company such information regarding such Selling Holder and the distribution proposed by such Selling Holder as the Company may reasonably request in writing and as shall be reasonably required in connection with any registration, qualification or compliance referred to in this Article V. The Company shall have the right to exclude from the registration any Selling Holder that does not comply with this Section 5.10.

(c) At such time as an underwriting agreement with respect to a particular underwriting is entered into, the terms of any such underwriting agreement shall govern with

respect to the matters set forth therein to the extent inconsistent with this Article V; provided, however, that the indemnification provisions of such underwriting agreement as they relate to the Selling Holders are customary for registrations of the type then proposed and provide for indemnification by such Selling Holders only with respect to written information furnished by such Selling Holders.

Section 5.11 Rule 144 and Rule 145. Following a Public Offering Event, the Company shall use its best efforts to ensure that the conditions to the availability of Rule 144 and Rule 145 set forth in paragraph (c) of Rule 144 shall be satisfied. The Company agrees to use its best efforts to file with the Commission in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of the Company under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, at any time after it has become subject to such reporting requirements. Upon the request of any Stockholder for so long as such information is a necessary element of such Person’s ability to avail itself of Rule 144 or Rule 145, the Company will deliver to such Person (i) a written statement as to whether it has complied with such requirements and (ii) a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of the Company, and such other reports and documents so filed as such Person may reasonably request in availing itself of any rule or regulation of the Commission allowing such Person to sell any such securities without registration.

Section 5.12 Holdback Agreement. Each of the Company and each holder of Registrable Securities (whether or not such Registrable Securities are covered by a registration statement filed pursuant to Section 5.2 or 5.3 hereof) agrees, if requested (pursuant to a timely written notice) by the managing underwriter or underwriters in an underwritten offering, not to effect any public sale or distribution of any of the Registrable Securities, including a sale pursuant to Rule 144 (except as part of such underwritten offering), during the period beginning ten (10) days prior to, and ending ninety (90) days after, the closing date of the underwritten offering made pursuant to such registration statement. The foregoing provisions shall not apply to the Company or any other Person if such Person is prevented by applicable statute or regulation from entering into any such agreement; provided, however, that any such Person shall undertake not to effect any public sale or distribution of the class of securities covered by such registration statement (except as part of the underwritten offering) during such period unless it has provided sixty (60) days’ prior written notice of such sale or distribution to the managing underwriter.

Section 5.13 Suspension of Sales. Each Selling Holder participating in a registration agrees that, upon receipt of notice from the Company pursuant to Section 5.7(f), such Selling Holder will discontinue disposition of its Registrable Securities pursuant to such registration statement until receipt of the copies of the supplemented or amended prospectus contemplated by Section 5.7(f), or until advised in writing by the Company that the use of the prospectus may be resumed, as the case may be, and, if so directed by the Company, such Selling Holder will deliver to the Company (at the Company’s expense) all copies, other than permanent file copies then in such Selling Holder’s possession, of the prospectus covering such Registrable Securities which are current at the time of the receipt of the notice of the event described in Section 5.7(f).

Section 5.14 Third Party Registration Rights. Nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to prevent the Company from providing registration rights to any other Person on such terms as the Company deems desirable in its sole discretion; provided, that, so long as the

GEI Parties collectively own at least 50% of the shares of Common Stock owned by them immediately following the effective time of the Merger, such registration rights are approved by a majority of the Non-Management Directors then in office.

SPECIFIC PERFORMANCE

Due to the fact that the securities of the Company cannot be readily purchased or sold in the open market and for other reasons, the parties will be irreparably damaged in the event that this Agreement is not specifically enforced. In the event of a breach or threatened breach of the terms, covenants and/or conditions of this Agreement by any of the parties hereto, the other

parties shall, in addition to all other remedies, be entitled (without any bond or other security being required) to a temporary and/or permanent injunction, without showing any actual damage or that monetary damages would not provide an adequate remedy, and/or a decree for specific performance, in accordance with the provisions hereof.

ARTICLE IX.

MISCELLANEOUS.

Section 9.1 Entire Agreement; Amendments. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and may not be modified or amended except by a written agreement signed by the Company and each of the Stockholders from time to time party hereto; provided, however, that any of the provisions of this Agreement may be modified, amended or eliminated by agreement of the Company, MW (so long as he is entitled to nominate at least one member of the Board of Directors pursuant to Section 1.1(a)), GEI (so long as it is entitled to nominate at least one member of the Board of Directors pursuant to Section 1.1(b)) and a majority in interest (on the basis of the number of shares of Common Stock then owned) of all other Stockholders (including MW, if his consent or approval is not otherwise specifically required and/or the GEI Parties if GEI’s consent or approval is not otherwise specifically required), which agreement shall bind each Stockholder whether or not such Stockholder has agreed thereto; provided further, however, that any such modification, amendment, or elimination of provisions of this Agreement shall treat all similarly situated Stockholders in the same manner, unless any Stockholder not so treated consents to such amendment, modification or elimination of provisions. Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, any modification or amendment of this Agreement by a written agreement signed by, or binding upon, any Stockholder shall be valid and binding upon any and all persons or entities who may, at any time, have or claim any rights under or pursuant to this Agreement in respect of Capital Stock acquired from such Stockholder. Nothing in this Section 9.1 shall be deemed to limit the ability of MW or GEI to assign its rights hereunder in the manner contemplated hereby.

Section 9.2 No Waiver. No waiver of any breach or default hereunder shall be considered valid unless in writing, and no such waiver shall be deemed a waiver of any subsequent breach or default of the same or similar nature. Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, any waiver, consent or other instrument under or pursuant to this Agreement signed by, or binding upon, any party shall be valid and binding upon any and all Persons who may, at any time, have or claim any rights under or pursuant to this Agreement in respect of Capital Stock acquired from such party.

Section 9.3 Successors and Assigns. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Company, the Stockholders and their respective successors and assigns; provided, however, that nothing contained herein shall be construed as granting to any party the right to transfer any Capital Stock except in accordance with this Agreement.

Section 9.4 Recapitalization, Exchanges, etc. Affecting Capital Stock. The provisions of this Agreement shall apply to the full extent set forth herein with respect to (a) the Capital Stock and any option, right or warrant to acquire Capital Stock and (b) any and all shares

of capital stock of the Company or any successor or assign of the Company (whether by stock split, stock dividend, merger, consolidation, sale of assets or otherwise) which may be issued in respect of, in exchange for, or in substitution for such Capital Stock by combination, recapitalization, reclassification, merger, consolidation or otherwise. In the event of any change in the capitalization of the Company as a result of any stock split, stock dividend or stock combination, the provisions of this Agreement shall be appropriately adjusted.

Section 9.5 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement shall be invalid or unenforceable, such invalidity or unenforceability shall attach only to such provision and shall not in any manner affect or render invalid or unenforceable any other severable provision of this Agreement, and this Agreement shall be carried out as if any such invalid or unenforceable provision were not contained herein.

Section 9.6 Arbitration. Except as set forth in Article VIII, arbitration shall be the exclusive remedy for resolving any dispute or controversy between or among the Company, any of its subsidiaries and/or the Stockholders. Such arbitration shall be conducted in accordance with the then most applicable rules of the American Arbitration Association. The arbitrator shall be empowered to grant only such relief as would be available in a court of law. In the event of any conflict between this Agreement and the rules of the American Arbitration Association, the provisions of this Agreement shall be determinative. If the parties are unable to agree upon an arbitrator, they shall select a single arbitrator from a list including a number of arbitrators determined by multiplying the number of parties to the arbitration by two and adding one. The arbitrators shall be designated by the office of the American Arbitration Association having responsibility for the city in which the Company has its executive office, all of whom shall be retired judges who are actively involved in hearing private cases or members of the National Academy of Arbitrators. If the parties are unable to agree upon an arbitrator from such list, they shall each strike names alternatively from the list, with the first to strike being determined by lot. After each party has used two strikes, the remaining name on the list shall be the arbitrator.

CERTAIN DISTRIBUTIONS EXEMPT

Section 10.1 It is expressly understood and agreed that any GEI Party may, in connection with the expiration, dissolution or winding down of such GEI Party, distribute to its partners, members or other equity participants, in accordance with the terms of its limited partnership agreement, limited liability company agreement or other constituent documents, all or any part of the shares of the Company’s capital stock or other Company securities held by it (any such distribution, a “GEI Distribution”). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, any GEI Distribution shall not constitute a “Transfer” for any purpose under this Agreement and shall be exempt in all respects from the terms and conditions of this Agreement. As an example, and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, it is expressly understood and agreed that a GEI Distribution shall not constitute a Tag-Along Sale. Further, it is also expressly understood and agreed that, following a GEI Distribution, (i) the shares of the Company’s capital stock or other Company securities distributed to the partners or

equity participants of such GEI Party shall in no way be subject to, or entitled to the benefits provided in, this Agreement and (ii) any partner or equity participant of such GEI Party which receives shares of the Company’s capital stock or other Company securities pursuant to a GEI Distribution shall not be required or deemed to become a party to this Agreement or otherwise be subject to this Agreement.

ARTICLE XI.

JUNIOR PREFERRED STOCK PUT RIGHT

Section 11.1 MW Put Right

(a) At any time following the 138-month anniversary of the Merger and prior to the expiration date of the MW Options (as such expiration date may be extended), MW may deliver a notice (an “MW Put Notice”) to the Company of his intent to exercise some or all of the MW Options in accordance with the terms thereof on a date (the “Put Closing Date”) no earlier than the 45^th day following delivery of such Notice together with a demand that, immediately following the exercise of such MW Options, the Company purchase from MW (or his Permitted Transferees) a number of shares of Junior Preferred Stock issued pursuant to the exercise of MW Options (the “MW Put Shares”) equal to the quotient of (x) the MW Tax Liability (as defined below) divided by (y) the Put Price. If MW delivers an MW Put Notice then the Company shall, on the Put Closing Date, purchase the MW Put Shares at the price per share determined in accordance with this Section 11.1(a); provided, that, with the consent of both MW and GEI, the Company may assign the right to purchase some or all of the MW Put Shares to any GEI Party. For purposes of this Agreement, (i) “MW Tax Liability” shall mean the aggregate U.S. federal and state income and employment taxes incurred, or expected to be incurred, by MW as a result of his actual exercise of the MW Options after the 141-month anniversary of the Merger, as determined by MW (unless a majority of the Non-Management Directors disagree, in which case the MW Tax Liability shall be determined by a nationally recognized accounting firm reasonably acceptable to MW and a majority of the Non-Management Directors) and (ii) “Put Price” shall mean the sum of the then-current liquidation preference per share of Junior Preferred Stock (as increased from time to time in accordance with the terms thereof) on the Put Closing Date and the amount of any accrued but unpaid dividends for the period from the last quarterly dividend date to, but excluding, the Put Closing Date to the extent not already reflected in the liquidation preference. The Company shall pay all reasonable, documented expenses of MW and the Company (including the reasonable fees and expenses of any accounting firm) in connection with the determination of the MW Tax Liability.

(b) In the event that (i) the Company does not assign the right to purchase any MW Put Shares to a GEI Party and (ii) the Company receives an MW Put Notice, then, at the election of GEI, the Company shall purchase from the GEI Parties up to a number of shares of Junior Preferred Stock (the “GEI Put Shares”) equal to the product of the aggregate number of shares of Junior Preferred Stock owned by the GEI Parties multiplied by the Put Fraction. For purposes of this Agreement, “Put Fraction” means the quotient of (A) the number of MW Put Shares divided by (B) the number of shares of Junior Preferred Stock owned by MW and his Permitted Transferees (including the number of shares of Junior Preferred Stock issuable upon exercise of the MW Options) as of the date of the MW Put Notice. If GEI desires to exercise the right to require the Company to purchase shares of Junior Preferred Stock pursuant to this

Section 11.1(b), then it shall deliver a notice (a “GEI Put Notice” and, together with the MW Put Notice, the “Put Notices”) to the Company and MW within 10 business days setting forth (i) the GEI Parties desiring to sell shares of Junior Preferred Stock to the Company, (ii) the number of shares of Junior Preferred Stock to be sold by each such GEI Party (not to exceed, in the aggregate, the number of GEI Put Shares).

(c) A Put Notice shall, subject to Section 11.2, constitute the delivering party’s binding agreement to sell the Junior Preferred Stock specified therein to the Company at the price equal to the liquidation preference per share of Junior Preferred Stock (as determined in accordance with the terms thereof) on the Put Closing Date.

Section 11.2 Priority; Loan.

(a) If, as a result of the provisions of any indenture or credit agreement by which the Company or any Subsidiary is bound (or for any other reason), the Company is unable to acquire all of the MW Put Shares and GEI Put Shares, then the Company shall purchase (i) first, the maximum number of MW Put Shares it is able to purchase without causing an event of default (or an event which with notice, lapse of time, or both would constitute an event of default) under any such indenture or credit agreement or a breach of any material contract to which the Company or any Subsidiary is party or by which their respective assets are bound (a “Default”), and (ii) second, the maximum number of GEI Put Shares the Company is able to purchase without causing a Default.

(b) The Company shall promptly notify MW (in no event later than the 30^th day following delivery of the MW Put Notice), if (i) it shall be unable to purchase all of the MW Put Shares on the Put Closing Date and/or (ii) it is shall be unable to make the Tax Loan (as hereinafter defined) on the Put Closing Date. In the event the Company is unable to purchase all of the MW Put Shares (and the Company does not assign the right to acquire such shares, or the balance of such shares, to a GEI Party as contemplated by Section 11.1), then the Company shall lend MW an amount (the “Tax Loan”) equal to the difference between the MW Tax Liability and the aggregate proceeds received by MW as a result of the purchase of such portion of the MW Put Shares actually purchased by the Company. If for any reason the Company is unable to make the Tax Loan provided for in the proceeding sentence, then the term of the MW Options shall be automatically extended pursuant to the terms thereof until the 60^th day following the earlier of (x) such date as the Company is able to purchase a number of MW Put Shares sufficient to satisfy the MW Tax Liability and (y) the date the Company is able to make the Tax Loan. The Company shall promptly notify MW of the occurrence of either of the events described in clause (x) or (y) of the preceding sentence and the 60-day period set forth therein shall not commence until MW shall have received such notice.

(c) The Tax Loan shall be evidenced by a promissory note in customary form, shall be interest-free and, subject to the following sentence, shall become due and payable immediately upon the receipt by MW (or his Permitted Transferees) of cash proceeds or Marketable Securities upon the Transfer of Capital Stock, including in connection with any Drag-Along Sale (net of taxes and expenses). In the event such net cash proceeds (or the fair market value of such Marketable Securities) is insufficient to repay the entire Tax Loan, then only such portion of the Tax Loan equal to the amount of such net cash proceeds and the fair market value of such Marketable Securities shall become due and payable and the balance shall

become due and payable upon the receipt by MW (or his Permitted Transferees) of further net cash proceeds or Marketable Securities upon the Transfer of Capital Stock and so on until the entire Tax Loan has been repaid. The terms of the Tax Loan shall provide that if MW (or his Permitted Transferees) receive Marketable Securities in connection with any such Transfer, MW (or his Permitted Transferees) may satisfy his or their obligation under the Tax Loan by delivering Marketable Securities, which shall be valued in accordance with Section 3.6 as of the date prior to the date such Marketable Securities are delivered to the Company; provided, that if such Marketable Securities were received by MW (or his Permitted Transferee) (x) in a transaction covered by Article III, then the valuation of such Marketable Securities shall be equal to the previously determined value thereof as of the date prior to the date of the Transfer Notice or (y) in a transaction covered by Article IV hereof, the valuation of such Marketable Securities shall be determined as of the date prior to the date of the Tag-Along Sale Notice.

Section 11.3 Closing. At the closing of the transactions contemplated by this Article XI, each Stockholder participating therein shall either (a) deliver certificates representing the appropriate number of shares of Junior Preferred Stock owned by such Stockholder, duly endorsed for transfer with signatures guaranteed, to the Company, in each case against delivery of the purchase price for such shares or (b) authorize the Company (or the Company’s transfer agent, if any) to record in the Company’s books and records the transfer of the appropriate number of shares of Junior Preferred Stock which is not represented by one or more certificates. In addition, each such Stockholder shall take all reasonable action as the Company shall reasonably request as necessary to vest in the Company all such Junior Preferred Stock, whether in certificated or uncertificated form, free and clear of all liens, charges and encumbrances of any kind.

Section 11.4 Revaluation of Assets and Liabilities. If at any time following receipt of an MW Put Notice the Company would not be able to acquire any portion of the MW Put Shares as a result of the payment therefore not being permitted under applicable law and the revaluation of the assets and liabilities of the Company (and/or any of its Subsidiaries) in accordance with applicable law, would enable the Company to make such payment, then the Company shall take such actions as are required to revalue its assets and liabilities and/or cause its Subsidiaries to revalue their assets and liabilities.
