3. TRANSFERS OF SECURITIES
3.1 Restrictions on Transfers
(a) Except as otherwise provided in this Section 3.1
or Section 3.2, the M/C Stockholders hereby agree that until the
Expiration Date, the M/C Stockholders will not offer, sell,
contract to sell, grant any option to purchase, or otherwise
dispose of, directly or indirectly, ("Transfer"), any equity
securities of the Company or any other securities convertible
into or exercisable for such equity securities ("Securities")
beneficially owned by such M/C Stockholders as a result of the

such Securities and Securities acquired as a result of a stock
split with respect to such Securities) without submitting a
written request to, and receiving the prior written consent of,
the Board of Directors; provided, however, that the M/C
Stockholders may transfer Securities to any beneficial owner or
Affiliate of the M/C Stockholders, in each case provided that (i)
such transfer is done in accordance with the transfer
restrictions applicable to such Securities under federal and
state securities laws and (ii) the transferee agrees to be bound
by the terms hereof (as this Agreement may be amended or amended
and restated from time to time) as an M/C Stockholder with
respect to the shares being transferred pursuant to this Section
(any such M/C Stockholder transferee pursuant to the foregoing
proviso, an "M/C Stockholder Permitted Transferee"), and any such
transfer shall not constitute a "Transfer" for purposes of this
Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no party hereto shall
avoid the provisions of this Agreement by making one or more
transfers to one or more M/C Stockholder Permitted Transferees
and then at any time directly or indirectly disposing of all or
any portion of such party's interest in any such M/C Stockholder
Permitted Transferee. In the event that the Board of Directors
consents to any Transfer of Securities by a Principal Stockholder
(for purposes of this Agreement, the term "Principal Stockholder"
shall have the same meaning as ascribed to such term in the Third
Amended and Restated November 1998 Stockholders' Agreement)
pursuant to Section 3.1(a) of the Third Amended and Restated
November 1998 Stockholders' Agreement upon the written request of
such Principal Stockholder (the "Transferring Principal
Stockholder") and except as otherwise provided in Section 3.1(b)
and Section 3.2 of this Agreement, the M/C Stockholders shall,
notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 3.1(a), have the
right to Transfer a percentage of the total number of Securities
beneficially owned by the M/C Stockholders equal to the
percentage of the total number of Securities beneficially owned
by the Transferring Principal Stockholder that the Board of
Directors has consented may be Transferred by such Transferring
Principal Stockholder. In the event the Board of Directors
consents to any Transfer of Securities by the M/C Stockholders
pursuant to this Section 3.1(a) upon the written request of the
M/C Stockholders (the "Transferring M/C Stockholders"), and
except as otherwise provided in Section 3.1(b) and Section 3.2 of
the Third Amended and Restated November 1998 Stockholders'
Agreement, each Principal Stockholder shall, notwithstanding the
provisions of Section 3.1(a) of the Third Amended and Restated
November 1998 Stockholders' Agreement, have the right to Transfer
a percentage of the total number of Securities beneficially owned
by such Principal Stockholder equal to the percentage of the
total number of Securities beneficially owned by the Transferring
M/C Stockholders that the Board of Directors has consented may be
Transferred by such Transferring M/C Stockholders.
(b) In addition to the provisions of Section 3.1(a),
for the period commencing for the quarter ending March 31, 2000
and ending on the Expiration Date, the Board shall determine
prior to the public release of the Company's consolidated
financial results with respect to each such financial reporting
quarter during such period, the aggregate number, if any, of
shares of Class A Common Stock (not to exceed in the aggregate
one hundred thousand (100,000) shares of Class A Common Stock per
quarter, subject to adjustment pursuant to Section 5.1) that may
be Transferred by the M/C Stockholders (the "Transfer Amount")
during the period commencing on the third (3rd) business day and
ending on the twenty-third (23rd) business day following such
public release of the Company's quarterly or annual financial
results or such other trading period designated or permitted by
the Board with respect to the purchase and sale of its Securities
(each such period, a "Transfer Period"). Notwithstanding the
provisions of Section 3.1(a), the M/C Stockholders shall be
entitled to Transfer during each Transfer Period, provided such
Transfer is effected in accordance with all applicable federal
and state securities laws, a number of shares of Class A Common
Stock equal to the Transfer Amount, if any, for such Transfer
Period. In no event shall any portion of a Transfer Amount that
is not utilized by the M/C Stockholders during a Transfer Period
be reallocated or otherwise credited to any subsequent Transfer
Periods. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this
Section 3.1(b), to the extent that the Company permits the
Principal Stockholders the opportunity to Transfer shares of
Class A Common Stock pursuant to Section 3.1(b) of the Third
Amended and Restated November 1998 Stockholders' Agreement, the
Company shall grant the M/C Stockholders the opportunity to
Transfer on the same terms and conditions a number of shares of
Class A Common Stock equal to the number of shares which each
Principal Stockholder is entitled to Transfer pursuant to such
Section 3.1(b), without considering those provisions of Section
3.1(b) of the Third Amended and Restated November 1998
Stockholders' Agreement relating to the reallocation of amounts
among the Principal Stockholders. To the extent the Board
determines a Transfer Amount with respect to the M/C Stockholders
for any particular quarter pursuant to this Section 3.1(b), the
Board shall determine an equal Transfer Amount for such quarter
with respect to each Principal Stockholder pursuant to Section
3.1(b) of the Third Amended and Restated November 1998
Stockholders' Agreement.
(c) For the period commencing for the quarter ending
March 31, 2000 and ending on the Expiration Date, the Company
shall give the M/C Stockholders prompt written notice (in any
event no later than fifty (50) days prior to the beginning of the
applicable Transfer Period) of its determination of any Transfer
Amount. Within seven (7) days of receipt of such notice, the M/C
Stockholders shall provide written notice to the Company of the
number of shares of Class A Common Stock that the M/C
Stockholders desire to Transfer pursuant to Section 3.1(b).
(d) For purposes of this Section 3.1, the M/C
Stockholders shall be deemed to be a single stockholder of the
Company, the McLeods shall be deemed to be a single Principal
Stockholder of the Company, Xxxxxxx and all of the Principal CCI
Shareholders shall be deemed to be a single Principal Stockholder
of the Company and the AEC Entities shall be deemed to be a
single Principal Stockholder of the Company.
3.2 Registration Rights
(a) In the event that the Board of Directors consents
pursuant to Section 3.1(a) of the Third Amended and Restated
November 1998 Stockholders' Agreement to a Principal
Stockholder's request for a Transfer and in connection therewith,
the Company agrees to register Securities with respect to such
Transfer under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
"Securities Act"), the Company shall grant the M/C Stockholders
the opportunity (subject to reduction in the event the registered
Transfer is underwritten) to register for Transfer under the
Securities Act a percentage of the total number of Securities
beneficially owned by the M/C Stockholders equal to the
percentage of the total number of Securities beneficially owned
by the Transferring Principal Stockholder that such Transferring
Principal Stockholder is registering for Transfer under the
Securities Act, on the same terms and conditions as the
Transferring Principal Stockholder. In the event that the Board
of Directors consents pursuant to Section 3.1(a) of this
Agreement to the M/C Stockholders' request for a Transfer, and in
connection therewith the Company agrees to register Securities
with respect to such Transfer under the Securities Act, the
Company shall grant each Principal Stockholder pursuant to
Section 3.1(a) of the Third Amended and Restated November 1998
Stockholders' Agreement the opportunity (subject to reduction in
the event the registered Transfer is underwritten) to register
for Transfer under the Securities Act a percentage of the total
number of Securities beneficially owned by such Principal
Stockholder equal to the percentage of the total number of
Securities beneficially owned by the Transferring M/C
Stockholders that such Transferring M/C Stockholders are
registering under the Securities Act, on the same terms and
conditions as the Transferring M/C Stockholders.
(b) To the extent that the Company grants pursuant to
Section 3.1(b) of the Third Amended and Restated November 1998
Stockholders' Agreement a Principal Stockholder the opportunity
to register shares of Class A Common Stock for Transfer under the
Securities Act, the Company shall grant the M/C Stockholders the
opportunity (subject to reduction in the event the registered
Transfer is underwritten) to register an equal number of shares
of Class A Common Stock for Transfer under the Securities Act on
the same terms and conditions, without considering those
provisions of Section 3.1(b) of the Third Amended and Restated
November 1998 Stockholders' Agreement relating to the
reallocation of amounts among the Principal Stockholders. To the
extent that the Company grants pursuant to Section 3.1(b) of this
Agreement the M/C Stockholders the opportunity to register shares
of Class A Common Stock for Transfer under the Securities Act,
the Company shall grant each Principal Stockholder pursuant to
Section 3.1(b) of the Third Amended and Restated November 1998
Stockholders' Agreement the opportunity (subject to reduction in
the event the registered Transfer is underwritten) to register an
equal number of shares of Class A Common Stock for Transfer under
the Securities Act on the same terms and conditions.
(c) In the event the Company proposes to register any
shares of Class A Common Stock under the Securities Act pursuant
to an underwritten primary offering (other than pursuant to a
registration statement on Form S-4 or Form S-8 or any successor
forms thereto or other form which would not permit the inclusion
of the shares of Class A Common Stock of the M/C Stockholders),
the Company, as determined by the Board of Directors, shall give
written notice to the M/C Stockholders of its intention to effect
such a registration. Following any such notice, the Board of
Directors shall undertake to determine the aggregate number, if
any, of shares of Class A Common Stock held by the M/C
Stockholders (not to exceed in the aggregate on a per year basis
a number of shares of Class A Common Stock equal to fifteen
percent (15%) of the total number of shares of Class A Common
Stock beneficially owned by the M/C Stockholders as of the
Effective Time (as defined in the Merger Agreement) in connection
with the consummation of the Merger, subject to appropriate and
proportionate adjustment as a result of the Stock Split and
subject to adjustment pursuant to Section 5.1) to be registered
by the Company under the Securities Act (the "Registrable
Amount") for Transfer by the M/C Stockholders in connection with
such offering during such period. If the Board determines to
register shares of Class A Common Stock held by the M/C
Stockholders pursuant to this Section 3.2(c), the Company will
promptly give written notice of such determination to the M/C
Stockholders, and thereupon the Company will use commercially
reasonable efforts to effect the registration of that portion of
the Registrable Amount that the M/C Stockholders indicate a
desire to register. All terms, conditions and rights with
respect to such registration (including but not limited to any
determination to reduce the Registrable Amount) shall be
determined by the Board, provided that (i) the representations
and warranties of the M/C Stockholders shall be customary taking
into account, among other things, the nature of the offering and
the M/C Stockholders' relationship with the Company, and (ii) the
Company shall be responsible for all expenses with respect to
such registration other than underwriting discounts and
commissions allocable to the Class A Common Stock of the M/C
Stockholders, which underwriting discounts and commissions shall
be the responsibility of the M/C Stockholders. Notwithstanding
the foregoing provisions of this Section 3.2(c), to the extent
that the Company grants pursuant to Section 3.2(c) of the Third
Amended and Restated November 1998 Stockholders' Agreement the
Principal Stockholders the opportunity to register shares of
Class A Common Stock for Transfer under the Securities Act, the
Company shall grant the M/C Stockholders the opportunity to
register shares of Class A Common Stock on a substantially
similar basis. To the extent that the Company grants pursuant to
Section 3.2(c) of this Agreement the M/C Stockholders the
opportunity to register shares of Class A Common Stock for
Transfer under the Securities Act, the Company shall grant each
Principal Stockholder pursuant to Section 3.2(c) of the Third
Amended and Restated November 1998 Stockholders' Agreement the
opportunity to register shares of Class A Common Stock on a
substantially similar basis.
(d) In addition to the registration rights granted
pursuant to Sections 3.2(a), (b) and (c), no more frequently than
once during each of the calendar years ending December 31, 2000
and 2001 (each such year, an "Annual Period"), and upon either
(i) the receipt of a written request of the M/C Stockholders or
(ii) a determination by the Board of Directors, the Board shall
undertake to determine the Registrable Amount, if any, for
Transfer by the M/C Stockholders. If the Board determines to
register shares of Class A Common Stock held by the M/C
Stockholders pursuant to this Section 3.2(d), the Company will
promptly give written notice of such determination to the M/C
Stockholders, and thereupon the Company will use commercially
reasonable efforts to effect the registration of that portion of
the Registrable Amount that the M/C Stockholders indicate a
desire to register. All terms, conditions and rights with
respect to such registration (including but not limited to any
determination to reduce the Registrable Amount) shall be
determined by the Board, provided that (i) the representations
and warranties of the M/C Stockholders shall be customary taking
into account, among other things, the nature of the offering and
the M/C Stockholders' relationship with the Company, and (ii) the
Company shall be responsible for all expenses with respect to
such registration other than underwriting discounts and
commissions allocable to the Class A Common Stock of the M/C
Stockholders, which underwriting discounts and commissions shall
be the responsibility of the M/C Stockholders. Notwithstanding
the foregoing provisions of this Section 3.2(d), to the extent
that the Company grants pursuant to Section 3.2(d) of the Third
Amended and Restated November 1998 Stockholders' Agreement the
Principal Stockholders the opportunity to register shares of
Class A Common Stock for Transfer under the Securities Act, the
Company shall grant the M/C Stockholders the opportunity to
register shares of Class A Common Stock on a substantially
similar basis. To the extent that the Company grants pursuant to
Section 3.2(d) of this Agreement the M/C Stockholders the
opportunity to register shares of Class A Common Stock for
Transfer under the Securities Act, the Company shall grant each
Principal Stockholder pursuant to Section 3.2(d) of the Third
Amended and Restated November 1998 Stockholders' Agreement the
opportunity to register shares of Class A Common Stock on a
substantially similar basis.
(e) For purposes of this Section 3.2, the M/C
Stockholders shall be deemed to be a single stockholder of the
Company, the McLeods shall be deemed to be a single Principal
Stockholder of the Company, Xxxxxxx and all of the Principal CCI
Shareholders shall be deemed to be a single Principal Stockholder
of the Company and the AEC Entities shall be deemed to be a

(f) Notwithstanding any other provision of this
Agreement, to the extent the Company has undertaken to register
Securities of the M/C Stockholders pursuant to this Section 3.2,
the Company may subsequently determine not to register such
Securities and may either not file a registration statement or
otherwise withdraw or abandon a registration statement previously
filed with respect to the registration of such Securities;
provided that to the extent the Principal Stockholders are also
participating in such registration, the M/C Stockholders and the
Principal Stockholders will be treated on a substantially similar
basis with respect to any such determination not to register
Securities or the withdrawal or abandonment of a registration
statement previously filed as contemplated by this Section 3.2(f).
