Shares by Purchaser (other than involuntary transfers) will comply with
the provisions of this Agreement, the provisions of the Stockholders'
Agreement and the Pledge Agreement and applicable provisions of state
and federal securities laws.
(b) Certain Information Not Material. Purchaser has not received
individualized information relative to the compensation of the
management of the Company, which information is acknowledged by
Purchaser as not being material to Purchaser in forming a basis for
making an investment in the Shares or for any other purpose in
connection herewith.
(c) Shares Unregistered. Purchaser acknowledges and represents
that he has been advised by the Company that:
(i) the offer and sale of the Shares have not been registered
under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), or
any state securities laws;
3
(ii) the Shares must be held indefinitely and Purchaser must
continue to bear the economic risk of the investment in the Shares
unless the offer and sale of such Shares is subsequently registered
under the Securities Act and all applicable state securities laws or an
exemption from such registration is available;
(iii) there is no established market for the Shares and it is
not anticipated that there will be any public market for the Shares in
the foreseeable future;
(iv) the Company is under no obligation to register under the
Securities Act the Shares on behalf of Purchaser, to assist Purchaser in
complying with any exemption from registration or to consent to the
transfer of the Shares;

presently available with respect to the sale of any securities of the
Company, and the Company has made no covenant to make such Rule

(i) Purchaser has carefully reviewed, is familiar with and
understands the Memorandum, the Stockholders' Agreement, the Four Year
Note, the Pledge Agreement, the Option Agreement and the other
documents, records and information, if any, requested by Purchaser or
otherwise supplied by the Company in connection with the Offering;
(ii) All documents, records and information pertaining to an
investment in the Company which have been requested by Purchaser have
been made available or delivered to Purchaser, except to the extent
otherwise addressed in the Memorandum;

and receive answers from the Company concerning the terms and conditions
of his investment and the financial condition, operations and prospects
of the Company;
(iv) No oral or written statement, printed material or
inducement given or made by the Company or any of the Company's
affiliates is contrary to the information contained in this Agreement,
the Memorandum, the Stockholders' Agreement, the Four
4

that in making his decision to purchase the Shares he has relied solely
on such documents and the independent investigations made by him and, to
the extent believed by Purchaser to be appropriate, his representatives,
including his own professional, financial, legal, tax and other
advisors;
(v) Purchaser acknowledges that the Company, in reliance upon
certain federal and state securities law exemptions, has provided
Purchaser with less or different information than Purchaser would have
received if an information memorandum complying with Rule 502(b)(2) of
Regulation D promulgated pursuant to the Securities Act had been
prepared and made available to Purchaser or if the Shares had been
registered pursuant to the Securities Act. The foregoing
notwithstanding, the information provided to Purchaser is sufficient to
allow Purchaser to make a knowledgeable and informed decision regarding
his investment in the Shares;

current financial needs and possible personal contingencies and has no
need for liquidity in his investment in the Shares, (B) can bear the
economic risk of losing his entire investment in the Shares, (C) has
such knowledge and experience in financial matters that he is capable of
evaluating the relative risks and merits of his purchase of the Shares,

of the Shares, and (E) has determined that the purchase of the Shares is
consistent with Purchaser's financial objectives;
(vii) Purchaser realizes that he may not be able to sell or
dispose of the Shares even in the event of a personal emergency.
Purchaser's overall commitment to investments which are not readily
marketable (including his investment in the Shares) is not
disproportionate to his net worth;
(viii) The address set forth on the signature page hereof is
Purchaser's true and correct residence, and Purchaser has no present
intention of becoming a domiciliary of any other state or jurisdiction;

circumstances, financial or otherwise, which may cause or require any
sale or disposition by him of any of the Shares;
(x) Each of this Agreement and the Stockholders' Agreement has
been duly and validly executed and delivered by Purchaser and each
constitutes the valid and binding obligation of Purchaser enforceable
against him, his successors and assigns, including, but not limited to,
his estate and his spouse, in accordance with its terms;
(xi) Assuming the due execution and delivery of each of this
Agreement and the Stockholders' Agreement by the Company, each of this
Agreement and the Stockholders' Agreement is a valid and binding
obligation of the Purchaser, enforceable against the Purchaser in
accordance with its terms, except as such enforcement may be subject to
(A) bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium
5
or other similar laws now or hereafter in effect relating to creditors
rights generally and (B) general principles of equity (regardless of
whether such enforcement is considered in a proceeding in equity or at
law); and
(xii) The Company has not guaranteed, represented or warranted
to Purchaser either that (A) the Company will be profitable or that
Purchaser will realize profits, as a result of his investment in the
Shares or (B) the past performance or experience on the part of any
officer, director, stockholder, employee, agent, representative or
affiliate thereof, or any employee, agent, representative or affiliate
of the Company will in any way indicate the predictable results of
ownership of the Shares.
(e) Residence-Specific Representations.
(i) If Purchaser is a resident of the State of Texas or the

subscribed for by Purchaser hereunder does not exceed 20% of Purchaser's
net worth (or joint net worth with Purchaser's spouse, if applicable) as
of the date hereof;
(ii) If Purchaser is a resident of the State of Louisiana, the

(iii) If Purchaser is a resident of the State of New Mexico, the
aggregate Purchase Price for the Shares subscribed for by Purchaser

worth with Purchaser's spouse, if applicable) as of the date hereof.
6. Representations and Warranties of the Company. The Company represents
and warrants to Purchaser as follows:

after the date hereof, Purchaser shall indemnify and hold harmless the Company
and its predecessors, successors, officers, directors, employees,
representatives and agents (collectively, the "Indemnitees") from and against
any loss, damage or expense, including, without limitation, reasonable
attorneys' and consultants' fees, disbursements and expenses, suffered by any
one or more of the Indemnitees arising out of or resulting from any inaccuracy
in or breach of any of the representations, warranties, covenants or agreements
made by Purchaser herein.
(b) Indemnification of Purchaser. From and after the date hereof, the
Company shall indemnify and hold harmless Purchaser from and against any loss,
damage or expense, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' and
consultants' fees, disbursements and expenses suffered by Purchaser arising out
of or resulting from any inaccuracy in or breach of any of the representations,
warranties, covenants or agreements made by the Company herein.
(c) Procedure for Claims. Within thirty days after obtaining written
notice of any claim or demand which has given rise to, or could reasonably give
rise to, a claim for indemnification hereunder, the party seeking
indemnification shall give written notice of such claim ("Notice of Claim") to
the other party. The Notice of Claim shall set forth a brief description of the
facts giving rise to such claim and the amount (or a reasonable estimate) of the
loss, damage or expense suffered, or which may be suffered, by the party seeking
indemnification.
Upon receiving the Notice of Claim, the indemnifying party shall resist,
settle or otherwise dispose of such claim in such manner as it shall deem
appropriate, including the employment of counsel, and shall be responsible for
the payment of all expenses, including the reasonable fees and expenses of such
counsel. The indemnified party shall have the right to employ separate counsel

and employ counsel in a timely manner or (iii) the named parties to any action
(including any impleaded parties) include both Purchaser and the Company, and
the indemnified party has been advised by such counsel that representation of
the Company and the Purchaser by the same counsel would be inappropriate under
applicable standards of professional conduct due to actual or potential
differing interests between them (in which case, if the indemnified party
notifies the indemnifying party in writing that the indemnified party elects to
employ separate counsel at the expense of the indemnifying party, the
indemnifying party shall have neither the right nor the obligation to assume the
defense of such action on behalf of the indemnified party).
(d) Third Party Beneficiaries. Nothing contained in this Section 10
shall confer any rights upon, or inure to the benefit of, any third party other
than those parties specified in Sections 10(a) and 10(b) above, it being
understood that such specified parties, to the extent not actually parties
hereto, shall be third party beneficiaries.

reference, constitute the entire agreement between the parties hereto with
respect to the subject matter hereof and may be amended only by a writing
executed by all parties hereto. This Agreement and the Additional Documents and
the information contained herein and therein expressly supersede all
understandings and agreements of the parties, whether written or oral, between
the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof.
(d) Successors. This Agreement and all the terms and provisions hereof

consent of the other party.

(f) Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is held by a court
of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, such
provision shall be severed and enforced to the extent possible or modified in
such a way as to make it enforceable, and the invalidity, illegality or
unenforceability thereof shall not affect the validity, legality or
enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement.

Code of 1986, as amended, a corporation, partnership, trust or estate must
withhold tax with respect to certain transfers of property if a holder of the
interest in the entity is a foreign

his last will and testament, or other similar instrument, or to execute a
codicil thereto, directing and authorizing his personal representatives to
fulfill and comply with the provisions hereof.
(k) Effectiveness; Termination. In the event this Agreement is
terminated for any reason, the parties hereto shall have no further obligations
to each other, except that in the event of a complete or partial performance of
the terms hereof which occurs prior to any termination hereof, (i) Purchaser
shall promptly return to the Company all certificates in his possession
representing the Shares, if any, and (ii) the Company shall promptly refund the
