AGREEMENT

NOW, THEREFORE, the parties to this Agreement hereby agree as follows:

1. LUXCO DEMAND REGISTRATIONS.

1.1. Requests for Registration. At any time prior to Luxco’s Initial Public Offering, Bain may initiate the registration of Luxco securities in Luxco’s Initial Public Offering. Subject to the other provisions of Section 1, Bain may initiate an unlimited number of registrations of all or part of their Luxco Registrable Securities on Form S-1 or any successor or similar long-form registration (“Long-Form Registrations”) and, if available, an unlimited number of registrations of all or part of their Luxco Registrable Securities on Form S-2 or S-3 or any successor or similar short-form registration (“Short-Form Registrations” and, collectively with Long Form Registrations, “Demand Registrations”).

1.2. Demand Notice. All requests for Demand Registrations shall be made by giving written notice (a “Demand Notice”) to Luxco. Each Demand Notice shall specify the approximate number of Luxco Registrable Securities requested to be registered. Within ten days after receipt of any such Demand Notice, Luxco will give written notice of such requested registration to all other holders of Luxco Registrable Securities and, subject to Section 1.5, will include in such registration (and in all related registrations and qualifications under securities laws or in compliance with other registration requirements and in any related underwriting) all Luxco Registrable Securities with respect to which Luxco has received written requests for inclusion therein within 15 days after the delivery of Luxco’s notice.

1.3. Demand Registration Expenses. Luxco will pay all Registration Expenses in connection with any registration initiated as a Demand Registration, whether or not it has become effective.

1.4. Short-Form Registrations. Demand Registrations will be Short-Form Registrations whenever Luxco is permitted to use any applicable short-form (unless the managing underwriter(s) of such offering requests Luxco to use a Long-Form Registration in order to sell all of the Luxco Registrable Securities requested to be sold). After Luxco has become subject to the reporting requirements of the Securities Exchange Act, Luxco will use its best efforts to make Short-Form Registrations available for the sale of Luxco Registrable Securities. Bain may, in connection with any Demand Registration requested by such holders that is a Short-Form Registration, require Luxco to file such Short-Form Registration with the Securities and Exchange Commission in accordance with and pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act (or any successor or similar rule then in effect) (a “Shelf Registration”).

- 2 -

1.5. Priority on Demand Registrations. Luxco shall not include in any Demand Registration any securities which are not Luxco Registrable Securities without the prior written consent of the holders of a majority of the Luxco Registrable Securities included in such registration. If a Demand Registration is an underwritten offering and the managing underwriter(s) advises Luxco in writing that in its opinion the number of Luxco Registrable Securities and, if permitted hereunder, other securities requested to be included in such offering exceeds the number of Luxco Registrable Securities and other securities, if any, which can be sold therein without adversely affecting the marketability of the offering, then Luxco shall include in such registration, prior to the inclusion of any securities that are not Luxco Registrable Securities, the number of Luxco Registrable Securities requested to be included in such offering that, in the opinion of such underwriter(s), can be sold without adversely affecting the marketability of the offering, pro rata among the respective holders thereof on the basis of the number of Luxco Registrable Securities owned by each such holder, and only then securities that are not Luxco Registrable Securities if the managing underwriter(s) has advised that such securities may be included.

1.6. Restrictions on Demand Registrations. Luxco will not be obligated to effect any Demand Registration within 90 days after the closing of a Public Offering (other than on Form S-4 or Form S-8 or any successor or similar form, but including the closing of an underwritten distribution pursuant to a Shelf Registration). Luxco may postpone for up to 30 days (from the date of the request) the filing or the effectiveness of a registration statement for a Demand Registration if and so long as Luxco determines that such Demand Registration would reasonably be expected to have an adverse effect on any proposal or plan by Luxco or any of the Subsidiaries to engage in any acquisition of assets (other than in the ordinary course of business) or any merger, consolidation, tender offer, registration or issuance of securities, financing or other material transaction; provided, however, that in such event, Luxco will pay all Registration Expenses in connection with such registration. Luxco may not postpone a Demand Registration more than two (2) times in any twelve-month period.

1.7. Selection of Underwriters. Bain will have the right to select the underwriter or underwriters to administer the offering, provided that such selection will be subject to the approval of the Parent Board, which approval will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

1.8. Other Registration Rights. Luxco represents and warrants that it is not a party to, or otherwise subject to, any other agreement granting registration rights to any other Person with respect to any securities of Luxco, other than the Securityholders Agreement and the Luxco Management Plan. Except as provided in this Agreement, Luxco shall not grant to any Persons the right to request Luxco to register any equity securities of Luxco, or any securities convertible or exchangeable into or exercisable for such securities, without the prior written consent of Bain; provided that without such written consent, (a) Luxco may grant rights to other Persons to participate in Piggyback Registrations so long as such rights are subordinate to the rights of the holders of Luxco Registrable Securities with respect to such Piggyback Registrations; and (b) Luxco may grant rights to other Persons to request registrations so long as the holders of Luxco Registrable Securities are entitled to participate in any such registrations with such Persons pro rata on the basis of the number of securities owned by each such holder.

2. DUTCHCO DEMAND REGISTRATIONS.

2.1. Requests for Registration.

2.2. Demand Notice. All requests for Demand Registrations shall be made by Bain giving a Demand Notice to Luxco and Luxco delivering such Demand Notice to Dutchco. Each Demand Notice shall specify the approximate number of Dutchco Registrable Securities requested to be registered. Within ten days after receipt of any such Demand Notice, Dutchco will give written notice of such requested registration to all other holders of Dutchco Registrable Securities and, subject to Section 2.5, will include in such registration (and in all related registrations and qualifications under securities laws or in compliance with other registration requirements and in any related underwriting) all Dutchco Registrable Securities with respect to which Dutchco has received written requests for inclusion therein within 15 days after the delivery of Dutchco’s notice.

2.3. Demand Registration Expenses. Dutchco will pay all Registration Expenses in connection with any registration initiated as a Demand Registration, whether or not it has become effective.

Demand Registrations will be Short-Form Registrations whenever Dutchco is permitted to use any applicable short-form (unless the underwriter of such offering requests Dutchco to use a Long-Form Registration in order to sell all of the Dutchco Registrable Securities requested to be sold). After Dutchco has become subject to the reporting requirements of the Securities Exchange Act, Dutchco will use its best efforts to make Short-Form Registrations available for the sale of Dutchco Registrable Securities. Luxco may, at Xxxx’x request, in connection with any Demand Registration requested by Luxco that is a Short-Form Registration, require Dutchco to file such Short-Form Registration with the Securities and Exchange Commission as a Shelf Registration.

2.5. Priority on Demand Registrations. Dutchco shall not include in any Demand Registration any securities which are not Dutchco Registrable Securities without the prior written consent of the holders of a majority of the Dutchco Registrable Securities included in such registration. If a Demand Registration is an underwritten offering and the managing underwriter(s) advises Dutchco in writing that in its opinion the number of Dutchco Registrable Securities and, if permitted hereunder, other securities requested to be included in such offering exceeds the number of Dutchco Registrable Securities and other securities, if any, which can be sold therein without adversely affecting the marketability of the offering, then Dutchco shall include in such registration, prior to the inclusion of any securities that are not Dutchco Registrable Securities, the number of Dutchco Registrable Securities requested to be included in such offering that, in the opinion of such underwriter(s), can be sold without adversely affecting

- 4 -

the marketability of the offering, pro rata among the respective holders thereof on the basis of the number of Dutchco Registrable Securities owned by each such holder, and only then securities that are not Dutchco Registrable Securities if the managing underwriter(s) has advised that such securities may be included.

2.6. Restrictions on Demand Registrations. Dutchco will not be obligated to effect any Demand Registration within 90 days after the closing of a Public Offering (other than on Form S-4 or Form S-8 or any successor or similar form, but including the closing of an underwritten distribution pursuant to a Shelf Registration). Dutchco may postpone for up to 30 days (from the date of the request) the filing or the effectiveness of a registration statement for a Demand Registration if and so long as Dutchco determines that such Demand Registration would reasonably be expected to have an adverse effect on any proposal or plan by Dutchco or any of the Subsidiaries to engage in any acquisition of assets (other than in the ordinary course of business) or any merger, consolidation, tender offer, registration or issuance of securities, financing or other material transaction; provided, however, that in such event, Dutchco will pay all Registration Expenses in connection with such registration. Dutchco may not postpone a Demand Registration more than two (2) times in any twelve-month period.

2.7. Selection of Underwriters. Luxco will have the right to select the underwriter or underwriters to administer the offering, provided that such selection will be subject to the approval of the Dutchco Board, which approval will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

2.8. Other Registration Rights.

Except as provided in this Agreement, Dutchco shall not grant to any Persons the right to request Dutchco to register any equity securities of Dutchco, or any securities convertible or exchangeable into or exercisable for such securities, without the prior written consent of Luxco; provided that without such written consent, (a) Dutchco may grant rights to other Persons to participate in Piggyback Registrations so long as such rights are subordinate to the rights of the holders of Dutchco Registrable Securities with respect to such Piggyback Registrations; and (b) Dutchco may grant rights to other Persons to request registrations so long as the holders of Dutchco Registrable Securities are entitled to participate in any such registrations with such Persons pro rata on the basis of the number of securities owned by each such holder.

3. PIGGYBACK REGISTRATIONS.

3.1. Right to Piggyback. Whenever Luxco or the Dutchco proposes to register any of its securities under the Securities Act (other than (a) in an Initial Public Offering, (b) pursuant to a Demand Registration to which Section 1 is applicable or (c) in connection with registration on Form S-4 or Form S-8 or any successor or similar form) and the registration form to be used may be used for the registration of Registrable Securities (a “Piggyback Registration”), the Issuer will give prompt written notice to all holders of Registrable Securities of its intention to effect such a registration and, subject to Sections 3.3 and 3.4 below, will include in such registration all Registrable Securities with respect to which the Issuer has received written requests for inclusion therein within 30 days after the delivery of the Issuer’s notice. Each such Company notice shall specify the approximate number of Company equity securities to be registered.

3.2. Piggyback Expenses. The Registration Expenses of the holders of Registrable Securities will be paid by the Issuer in all Piggyback Registrations, whether or not any such registration becomes effective.

3.3. Priority on Primary Registrations. If a Piggyback Registration is an underwritten primary registration on behalf of the Issuer and the managing underwriter(s) advises the Issuer in writing (with a copy to each party hereto requesting registration of Registrable Securities) that in its opinion the number of securities requested to be included in such registration exceeds the number which can be sold in such offering without adversely affecting the marketability of such offering, the Issuer will include in such registration: (a) first, the securities the Issuer proposes to sell, (b) second, the Registrable Securities requested to be included in such registration, pro rata among the holders of such Registrable Securities on the basis of the number of shares owned by each such holder, and (c) third, other securities requested to be included in such registration.

(f) cause all such Registrable Securities to be listed on each securities exchange on which similar securities issued by the Issuer are then listed and, if not so listed, to be listed on the NASD automated quotation system and, if listed on the NASD automated quotation system, use its best efforts to secure designation of all such Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement as a NASDAQ “national market system security” within the meaning of Rule 11Aa2-1 of the Securities and Exchange Commission or, failing that, to secure NASDAQ authorization for such Registrable Securities and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, to arrange for at least two market makers to register as such with respect to such Registrable Securities with the NASD;

(g) provide a transfer agent and registrar for all such Registrable Securities not later than the effective date of such registration statement;

(i) make available for inspection by any seller of Registrable Securities, any underwriter participating in any disposition pursuant to such registration statement and any attorney, accountant or other agent retained by any such seller or underwriter, all financial and other records, pertinent corporate documents and properties of the Issuer, and cause the Issuer’s officers, directors, employees and independent accountants to supply all information reasonably requested by any such seller, underwriter, attorney, accountant or agent in connection with such registration statement;

- 8 -

(k) in the event of the issuance of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of a registration statement, or of any order suspending or preventing the use of any related prospectus or suspending the qualification of any securities included in such registration statement for sale in any jurisdiction, the Issuer will use its reasonable best efforts promptly to obtain the withdrawal of such order;

(l) obtain one or more comfort letters, dated the effective date of such registration statement (and, if such registration includes an underwritten public offering, dated the date of the closing under the underwriting agreement), signed by the Issuer’s independent public accountants in the then-current customary form and covering such matters of the type customarily covered from time to time by comfort letters as the holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities being sold reasonably request;

(m) provide a legal opinion of the Issuer’s outside counsel, dated the effective date of such registration statement (and, if such registration includes an underwritten public offering, dated the date of the closing under the underwriting agreement), with respect to the registration statement, each amendment and supplement thereto, the prospectus included therein (including the preliminary prospectus) and such other documents relating thereto in the then-current customary form and covering such matters of the type customarily covered from time to time by legal opinions of such nature (in a form reasonably acceptable to the holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities included in the registration);

(n) cooperate with the sellers of Registrable Securities covered by the registration statement and the managing underwriter or agent, if any, to facilitate the timely preparation and delivery of certificates (not bearing any restrictive legends) representing securities to be sold under the registration statement, and enable such securities to be in such denominations and registered in such names as the managing underwriter or agent, if any, or such holders may request;

(o) notify counsel for the sellers of Registrable Securities included in such registration statement and the managing underwriter or agent, immediately, and confirm the notice in writing (i) when the registration statement, or any post-effective amendment to the registration statement, shall have become

- 9 -

effective, or any supplement to the prospectus or any amendment prospectus shall have been filed, (ii) of the receipt of any comments from the Securities and Exchange Commission, (iii) of any request of the Securities and Exchange Commission to amend the registration statement or amend or supplement the prospectus or for additional information, and (iv) of the issuance by the Securities and Exchange Commission of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the registration statement or of any order preventing or suspending the use of any preliminary prospectus, or of the suspension of the qualification of the registration statement for offering or sale in any jurisdiction, or of the institution or threatening of any proceedings for any of such purposes;

(p) make every reasonable effort to prevent the issuance of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the registration statement or of any order preventing or suspending the use of any preliminary prospectus and, if any such order is issued, to obtain the withdrawal of any such order at the earliest possible moment;

(q) if requested by the managing underwriter or agent or any holder of Registrable Securities covered by the registration statement, promptly incorporate in a prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment such information as the managing underwriter or agent or such holder reasonably requests to be included therein, including, without limitation, with respect to the number of Registrable Securities being sold by such holder to such underwriter or agent, the purchase price being paid therefor by such underwriter or agent and with respect to any other terms of the underwritten offering of the Registrable Securities to be sold in such offering; and make all required filings of such prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment as soon as practicable after being notified of the matters incorporated in such prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment; and

(r) cooperate with each seller of Registrable Securities and each underwriter or agent participating in the disposition of such Registrable Securities and their respective counsel in connection with any filings required to be made with the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. or any similar Person.

The Issuer may require each seller of Registrable Securities as to which any registration is being effected to furnish to the Issuer such information relating to the sale or registration of such securities regarding such seller and the distribution of such securities as the Issuer may from time to time reasonably request in writing.

4.2. Registration Expenses.

5. INDEMNIFICATION.

5.1. Indemnification by the Issuer. The Issuer agrees to indemnify and hold harmless, to the fullest extent permitted by law, each holder of Registrable Securities and, as applicable, its officers, directors, trustees, employees, stockholders, holders of beneficial interests, members, and general and limited partners (collectively, “Indemnitees”) and each Person who controls such holder (within the meaning of the Securities Act) against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, joint or several, to which such holder or any such Indemnitee may become subject under the Securities Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or proceedings, whether commenced or threatened, in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon (a) any untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact contained in any registration statement, prospectus or preliminary prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto, together with any documents incorporated therein by reference or, (b) any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and the Issuer will reimburse such holder and each of its Indemnitees for any legal or any other expenses, including any amounts paid in any settlement effected with the consent of the Issuer, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, liability, action or proceeding; provided, however, that the Issuer shall not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage, liability (or action or proceeding in respect thereof) or expense arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement, or omission or alleged omission, made in such registration statement, any such prospectus or preliminary prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto, or in any application, in reliance upon, and in conformity with, written information prepared and furnished to the Issuer by such holder expressly for use therein. In connection with an underwritten offering, the Issuer will indemnify such underwriters, their officers and directors and each Person who controls such underwriters (within the meaning of the Securities Act) to the same extent as provided above with respect to the indemnification of the holders of Registrable Securities.

5.2. Indemnification by Holders of Registrable Securities. In connection with any registration statement in which a holder of Registrable Securities is participating, each such holder will furnish to the Issuer in writing such information and affidavits as the Issuer reasonably requests for use in connection with any such registration statement or prospectus and, to the extent permitted by law, will indemnify and hold harmless the Issuer and its Indemnitees against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities, joint or several, to which the Issuer or any such Indemnitee may become subject under the Securities Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or proceedings, whether commenced or threatened, in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon (a) any untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact contained in the registration statement, prospectus or preliminary prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or in any application, together with any documents incorporated therein by reference or (b) any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, but only to the extent that such untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) or omission (or alleged omission) is made in such registration statement, any such prospectus or preliminary prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto, or in any application, in reliance upon and in conformity with written information prepared and furnished to the Issuer by such holder expressly for use therein, and such holder will reimburse the Issuer and each such Indemnitee for any legal or any other expenses including any amounts paid in any settlement effected with the consent of such holder, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, incurred by

- 13 -

them in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, liability, action or proceeding; provided, however, that the obligation to indemnify will be individual (and not joint and several) to each holder and will be limited to the net amount of proceeds received by such holder from the sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to such registration statement, less any other amounts paid by such holder in respect of such untrue statement, alleged untrue statement, omission or alleged omission.

5.3. Procedure. Any Person entitled to indemnification hereunder will (a) give prompt written notice to the indemnifying party of any claim with respect to which it seeks indemnification (provided, however, that the failure of any indemnified party to give such notice shall not relieve the indemnifying party of its obligations hereunder, except to the extent that the indemnifying party is actually prejudiced by such failure to give such notice), and (b) unless in such indemnified party’s reasonable judgment a conflict of interest between such indemnified and indemnifying parties may exist with respect to such claim, permit such indemnifying party to assume the defense of such claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party. If such defense is assumed, the indemnifying party will not be subject to any liability for any settlement made by the indemnified party without its consent (but such consent will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). An indemnifying party who is not entitled to, or elects not to, assume the defense of a claim will not be obligated to pay the fees and expenses of more than one counsel for all parties indemnified by such indemnifying party with respect to such claim, unless in the reasonable judgment of any indemnified party a conflict of interest may exist between such indemnified party and any other of such indemnified parties with respect to such claim.

5.4. Entry of Judgment; Settlement. The indemnifying party shall not, except with the approval of each indemnified party, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to each indemnified party of a release from all liability in respect to such claim or litigation without any payment or consideration provided by such indemnified party.

5.5. Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in this Section 5 is unavailable to or is insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party under the provisions above in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to therein, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (a) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits received by the Issuer on the one hand and the sellers of Registrable Securities and any other sellers participating in the registration statement on the other hand from the sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to the registered offering of securities as to which indemnity is sought but also the relative fault of the indemnified party and the indemnifying party as well as any other relevant equitable considerations or (b) if the allocation provided by clause (a) above is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (a) above but also the relative fault of the Issuer on the one hand and of the sellers of Registrable Securities and any other sellers participating in the registration

- 14 -

statement on the other hand in connection with the statement or omissions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Issuer on the one hand and the sellers of Registrable Securities and any other sellers participating in the registration statement on the other hand shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total net proceeds from the offering (before deducting expenses) to the Issuer bear to the total net proceeds from the offering (before deducting expenses) to the sellers of Registrable Securities and any other sellers participating in the registration statement. The relative fault of the Issuer on the one hand and of the sellers of Registrable Securities and any other sellers participating in the registration statement on the other hand shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Issuer or by the sellers of Registrable Securities or other sellers participating in the registration statement and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.

The Issuer and the sellers of Registrable Securities agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 5 were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the sellers of Registrable Securities were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph. The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages and liabilities referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth above, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 5, no seller of Registrable Securities shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the net proceeds received by such Seller from the sale of Registrable Securities covered by the registration statement filed pursuant hereto, less any other amounts paid by such holder in respect of such untrue statement, alleged untrue statement, omission, or alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act or any similar securities law) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

5.6. Other Rights. The indemnification and contribution by any such party provided for under this Agreement shall be in addition to any other rights to indemnification or contribution which any indemnified party may have pursuant to law or contract and will remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made or omitted by or on behalf of the indemnified party or any officer, director or controlling Person of such indemnified party and will survive the transfer of securities.

8. MISCELLANEOUS.

8.1. No Inconsistent Agreements; Foreign Registration. Luxco will not hereafter enter into any agreement with respect to its securities which is inconsistent with or violates the rights granted to the holders of Registrable Securities in this Agreement. In the event the Board and Bain approve a Public Offering or a sale of the securities of Luxco or Dutchco pursuant to the securities laws of a country other than the United States of America, the Board shall have the power to amend this Agreement in such manner as it shall deem reasonably necessary to ensure that the provisions of this Agreement will apply in a substantial manner to any offering or sale under such foreign securities laws.

8.2. Adjustments Affecting Luxco Registrable Securities. Luxco will not take any action, or permit any change to occur, with respect to its securities which would materially and adversely affect the ability of the holders of Luxco Registrable Securities to include such Luxco Registrable Securities in a registration undertaken pursuant to this Agreement or which would adversely affect the marketability of such Luxco Registrable Securities in any such registration (including, without limitation, effecting a stock split or a combination of shares). If the holders of Luxco Registrable Securities create a new holding company (“Holdco”), the result of which is that the stockholders of Luxco immediately before such event become all the stockholders of Holdco, then in each instance the provisions of this Agreement will, in addition to applying to Luxco, also apply to Holdco in the same manner as if Holdco were substituted for Luxco throughout this Agreement.

8.3. Remedies. The parties hereto agree and acknowledge that money damages may not be an adequate remedy for any breach of the provisions of this Agreement and that, in addition to any other rights and remedies at law or in equity existing in its favor, any party shall be entitled to specific performance and/or other injunctive relief from any court of law or equity of competent jurisdiction (without posting any bond or other security) in order to enforce or prevent violation of the provisions of this Agreement.

- 25 -

8.4. Amendment and Waiver. Except as otherwise provided herein, the provisions of this Agreement may be amended or waived only upon the prior written consent of Luxco and Xxxx Capital Partners, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, on behalf of Bain; provided that Section 6.1.3(b) or Section 6.3.2(c) or (d) may not be amended without the prior written consent of any VCOC Member adversely affected thereby. The failure of any party to enforce any of the provisions of this Agreement shall in no way be construed as a waiver of such provisions and shall not affect the right of such party thereafter to enforce each and every provision of this Agreement in accordance with its terms.

8.5. Successors and Assigns; Transferees. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. In addition, and whether or not any express assignment shall have been made, the provisions of this Agreement which are for the benefit of the holders of Registrable Securities (or any portion thereof) as such shall be for the benefit of and enforceable by any subsequent holder of any Registrable Securities (or of such portion thereof), subject to the provisions respecting the minimum numbers or percentages of shares of Registrable Securities (or of such portion thereof) required in order to be entitled to certain rights, or take certain actions, contained herein.

8.6. Severability. Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect under any applicable law or rule in any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision or the effectiveness or validity of any provision in any other jurisdiction, and this Agreement shall be reformed, construed and enforced in such jurisdiction as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had never been contained herein.

8.7. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in separate counterparts, each of which shall be an original and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same Agreement.

8.8. Descriptive Headings. The descriptive headings of this Agreement are inserted for convenience only and do not constitute a part of this Agreement.

8.9. Notices. Any and all notices or other communications or deliveries required or permitted to be provided hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed given, delivered, and effective on the earliest of (i) the date of transmission, if such notice or communication is delivered via facsimile at the facsimile telephone number specified in this Section 8.9 prior to 5:00 p.m. (New York time) on a Business Day, (ii) the Business Day after the date of transmission, if such notice or communication is delivered via facsimile at the facsimile telephone number specified in this Agreement later than 5:00 p.m. (New York time) on any Business Day and earlier than 11:59 p.m. (New York time) on such day, (iii) one (1) Business Day after when sent, if sent by nationally recognized overnight courier service (charges prepaid), or (iv) upon actual receipt by the party to whom such notice is required to be given.
