RECITALS
A. Each
Stockholder “beneficially owns” (as such term is defined in Rule 13d-3

in the case of the Stockholders that are parties thereto, to the 2004 Voting
Agreement (as defined below)) is entitled to dispose of (or to direct the

of
common stock, par value $1.00 per share, of the Company (the “Common Stock”) set
forth opposite such Stockholder’s name on Schedule A
hereto
(such shares of Common Stock, together with all other shares of capital stock
of
the Company acquired by any Stockholder after the date hereof and during the
term of this Agreement, being collectively referred to herein as the “Subject
Shares”). As used herein, the “2004 Voting Agreement” means that certain Voting
Agreement, dated September 23, 2004, by and among the Stockholders (other than
the MM 2005 Intangibles Trust, MHLAS Limited Partnership No. 1 and MH Family
LLC).
B. Concurrently
with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, Parent, Merger Sub and the
Company are entering into the Merger Agreement providing for the merger of
Merger Sub with and into the Company, with the Company surviving the Merger
(the
“Merger”) upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth
therein.
C. As
a
condition to entering into the Merger Agreement, Parent has required that the
Stockholders enter into this Agreement, and the Stockholders desire to enter
into this Agreement to induce Parent to enter into the Merger
Agreement.
D. The
Board
of Directors of the Company has taken all actions so that the restrictions
imposed on business combinations by Section 203 of the General Corporation
Law
of the State of Delaware (the “DGCL”) are inapplicable to this Agreement, the
Merger Agreement and the Merger.
NOW,
THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the mutual premises,
representations, warranties, covenants and agreements contained herein, the
parties hereto, intending to be legally bound, hereby agree as follows:
1. Representations
and Warranties of Each Stockholder.
Each
Stockholder severally (and not jointly) represents and warrants to Parent as
follows:
(a) Due
Authorization and Organization.
To the
extent such Stockholder is not a natural person, such Stockholder is duly
organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of its
jurisdiction of organization. Such Stockholder has all requisite legal power
and
authority to execute and deliver this Agreement and to consummate the
transactions contemplated hereby to be consummated by such Stockholder. This
Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by such Stockholder
and, assuming the due and valid authorization, execution and delivery by Parent
of this Agreement, constitutes a valid and binding obligation of such
Stockholder enforceable against such Stockholder in accordance with its terms,
except that such enforceability (i) may be limited by bankruptcy,
insolvency, moratorium and other similar laws relating to or affecting
creditors’ rights generally, and (ii) is subject to general principles of
equity.
(b) No
Conflicts.
(i)
Except for such filings as may be required under the Exchange Act, the Exchange
Act Rules and the applicable requirements of the New York Stock Exchange, no
filing by such Stockholder with any governmental body or authority, and no
authorization, consent or approval of any other Person is necessary for the
execution of this Agreement by such Stockholder and the consummation by such
Stockholder of the transactions contemplated hereby to be consummated by such
Stockholder and (ii) none of the execution and delivery of this Agreement by
such Stockholder or the consummation by such Stockholder of the transactions
contemplated hereby to be consummated by such Stockholder, or compliance by
such
Stockholder with any of the provisions hereof shall (A) in the case any
Stockholder that is not a natural person, violate any provision of the
organizational documents of such Stockholder, (B) giving effect to Section
20
hereof, violate or constitute a breach of or a default under (or which, with
notice or lapse of time, or both, would constitute a default under) any of
the
terms of any material contract, trust agreement, loan or credit agreement,
note,
bond, mortgage, indenture, lease, permit, understanding, agreement or other
instrument or obligation to which such Stockholder is a party or by which such
Stockholder or any of its Subject Shares or assets may be bound, or (C)
(assuming the filings referred to in the preceding clause (i) are made), violate
any applicable order, writ, injunction, decree, judgment, statute, rule or
regulation, except for any of the foregoing as would not reasonably be expected
to prevent such Stockholder from performing its obligations under this
Agreement.
(c) The
Subject Shares.
Schedule
A
sets
forth, opposite such Stockholder’s name (and, if applicable, in the footnotes
thereto), the number of Subject Shares over which such Stockholder has record
or
beneficial ownership as of the date hereof (subject, in the case of the
Stockholders that are parties thereto, to the 2004 Voting Agreement). As of
the
date hereof, such Stockholder is the record or beneficial owner of the Subject
Shares denoted as being owned by such Stockholder on Schedule
A
and,
except as set forth on Schedule
A,
has the
power to vote (or cause to be voted) such Subject Shares (subject, in the case
of the Stockholders that are parties thereto, to the
2
2004
Voting Agreement). Except as set forth on such Schedule
A,
neither
such Stockholder nor any controlled affiliate of such Stockholder owns or holds
any right to acquire any additional shares of any class of capital stock of
the
Company or other securities of the Company or any interest therein or any voting
rights with respect to any securities of the Company. Except for shares that
are
beneficially owned in a fiduciary capacity, such Stockholder has legal and
valid
title to the Subject Shares denoted as being owned by such Stockholder on
Schedule
A,
free
and clear of any pledges, mortgages, liens, voting agreements, options,
encumbrances, adverse claims, security interests and charges of any kind, other
than (i) those created by this Agreement or the 2004 Voting Agreement, (ii)
as
disclosed on Schedule
A,
(iii)
those created as a result of federal or state securities laws, or (iv) as would
not prevent such Stockholder from performing its obligations under this
Agreement.
(d) Reliance
By Parent.
Such
Stockholder understands and acknowledges that Parent is entering into the Merger
Agreement in reliance upon such Stockholder’s execution and delivery of this
Agreement.
(e) Litigation.
As of
the date hereof, there is no action, proceeding or investigation pending or,
to
such Stockholder’s knowledge, threatened against such Stockholder that questions
the validity of this Agreement or any action taken or to be taken by such
Stockholder in connection with this Agreement.
(f) No
Other Representations or Warranties.
Except
for the representations and warranties expressly contained in this Section
1 and
in the final sentence of Section 3(c) hereof, such Stockholder makes no express
or implied representation or warranty with respect to such Stockholder, the
Subject Shares, or otherwise. Such Stockholder hereby disclaims any such other
representation or warranty, whether by such Stockholder or any other Person,
notwithstanding the delivery or disclosure to Parent, Merger Sub or any other
Person of any documentation or other written or oral information by such
Stockholder, the Company, any of their respective Representatives or any other
Person, and neither such Stockholder nor any other Person will have or be
subject to any liability or indemnification obligation to Parent, Merger Sub
or
any other Person resulting from such delivery or disclosure, or Parent's, Merger
Sub's or any of their respective Representative’s use, of any such documentation
or other information ( including any information, documents, projections,
forecasts or other material made available to Parent, Merger Sub any of their
respective Representatives in certain "data rooms" or management presentations
in expectation of the Transactions).

Parent
is duly incorporated, validly existing and in good standing under the laws
of
the State of Delaware. Parent has all requisite corporate power and authority
to
execute and deliver this Agreement and to consummate the transactions
contemplated hereby to be consummated by Parent. This Agreement has been duly
authorized, executed and delivered by Parent and, assuming the
3
due
and
valid authorization, execution and delivery by each Stockholder of this
Agreement, constitutes a valid and binding obligation of Parent enforceable
against Parent in accordance with its terms, except that such enforceability

to general principles of equity.

Exchange Act Rules, no consent or approval of any other Person is necessary
for
the execution of this Agreement by Parent and the consummation by Parent of
the
transactions contemplated hereby to be consummated by Parent and (ii) none
of

Parent of the transactions contemplated hereby to be consummated by Parent,
or
compliance by Parent with any of the provisions hereof shall (A) violate any
provision of the certificate of incorporation or by-laws of Parent, (B) violate
or constitute a breach of or a default under (or which, with notice or lapse
of
time, or both, would constitute a default under) any of the terms of any
material contract, loan or credit agreement, note, bond, mortgage, indenture,
lease, permit, understanding, agreement or other instrument or obligation to
which Parent is a party or by which Parent or any of its assets may be bound,
or
(C) (assuming the filings referred to in the preceding clause (i) are made)

rule
or regulation, except for any of the foregoing as would not prevent Parent
from
performing its obligations under this Agreement.
(c) Reliance
by the Stockholders.

understands and acknowledges that the Stockholders are entering into this

by
Parent.
3.
|
Covenants
of Each Stockholder.
|
Until
the
termination of this Agreement in accordance with Section 5, each Stockholder,
in
its capacity as such, agrees as follows:
(a) At
the
Special Meeting or at any adjournment, postponement or continuation thereof
or
in any other circumstances occurring prior to the Special Meeting upon which
a
vote or other approval with respect to the Merger and the Merger Agreement
is
sought by the Company from the Company’s stockholders, each Stockholder shall
vote (or cause to be voted) the Subject Shares held by such Stockholder (i)
in
favor of the approval of the Merger and the approval and adoption of the Merger
Agreement; and (ii) except with the written consent of Parent, against any
Alternative Proposal. Any such vote shall be cast in accordance with such
procedures relating thereto so as to ensure that it is duly counted for purposes
of determining that a quorum is present and for purposes of recording the
results of such vote. Each Stockholder agrees not to enter into any agreement
or
commitment with any Person the effect of which would be inconsistent with or
violative of the provisions and agreements contained in this Section
3(a).
(b) Each
Stockholder hereby appoints Parent and any designee of Parent, and each of
them
individually, its proxies and attorneys-in-fact, with full power of substitution
and resubstitution, to vote during the term of this Agreement with respect
to
4
the
Subject Shares in accordance with Section 3(a). This proxy is given to secure
the performance of the duties of each Stockholder under this Agreement. Each
Stockholder shall take such further action or execute such other instruments
as
may be necessary to effectuate the intent of this proxy and power of attorney.
The proxy and power of attorney granted hereunder by each Stockholder shall
be
irrevocable during the term of this Agreement, shall be deemed to be coupled
with an interest sufficient in law to support an irrevocable proxy and shall
revoke any and all prior proxies granted by each Stockholder with respect to
the
matters contemplated by Section 3(a). The power of attorney granted by each
Stockholder herein is a durable power of attorney and shall survive the
dissolution, bankruptcy, death or incapacity of such Stockholder. The proxies
and powers of attorney granted hereunder shall cease to be irrevocable and
shall
terminate upon the termination of this Agreement.
(c) Each
Stockholder agrees not
to,
directly or indirectly, (i) sell, transfer, tender, pledge, encumber, assign
or
otherwise dispose of (collectively, a “Transfer”) or enter into any agreement,
option or other arrangement with respect to, or consent to a Transfer of, or
convert or agree to convert, any or all of the Subject Shares to any Person,
other than in accordance with the Merger Agreement, except in each case for
Transfers (x) to any other Stockholder or (y) to any Person who executes and
delivers to Parent and Merger Sub a voting agreement identical in form to this
Agreement (except for the identity of the Stockholder) prior to or concurrently
with the consummation of such Transfer or (ii) grant any proxies (other than
the
Company proxy card in connection with the Special Meeting if and to the extent
such proxy is consistent with the Stockholder’s obligations under Section 3(a)
hereof), deposit any Subject Shares into any voting trust or enter into any
voting arrangement, whether by proxy, voting agreement or otherwise, with
respect to any of the Subject Shares, in any case where such action would be
inconsistent with or violative of the provisions and agreements contained in
Section 3(a) hereof. Such Stockholder further agrees (A) not to commit or agree
to take any of the actions that are prohibited by clause (i) or (ii) of the
preceding sentence and (B) not to take any action that would have the effect
of
preventing, impeding, interfering with or adversely affecting its ability to
perform its obligations under this Agreement.
(d) Such
Stockholder shall not, nor shall such Stockholder permit any controlled
affiliate of such Stockholder to, nor shall such Stockholder act in concert
with
or permit any controlled affiliate to act in concert with any Person to make,
or
in any manner participate in, directly or indirectly, a “solicitation” (as such
term is used in the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission) of proxies
or powers of attorney or similar rights to vote, or seek to advise or influence
any Person with respect to the voting of, any shares of Common Stock intended
to
facilitate any Alternative Proposal or to cause stockholders of the Company
not
to vote to approve and adopt the Merger Agreement. Such Stockholder shall not,
and shall direct any investment banker, attorney, agent or other adviser or
representative of such Stockholder not to, initiate or solicit (including by
way
of furnishing non-public information) or knowingly take any other action that
constitutes, or is reasonably expected to lead to, an Alternative Proposal
or
engage in any substantive discussions or negotiations concerning, or provide
any
non-public information with respect to, an Alternative Proposal. Each
Stockholder hereby represents that, as of the date hereof, it is not engaged
in
substantive discussions or negotiations with any party with respect to any
Alternative Proposal.
5
(e) Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in this Section 3, if and to the extent that, pursuant
to the terms of the Merger Agreement, the Company is permitted to provide
information to and engage in substantive discussions and negotiations with
any
Person regarding an Alternative Proposal, then the Stockholders may provide
information to and engage in substantive discussions and negotiations with
such
Person and its representatives.
4.
|
Stockholder
Capacity.
|
No
Person
executing this Agreement, or any officer, director, partner, employee, agent
or
representative of such Person, who is or becomes during the term of this
Agreement a director or officer of the Company shall be deemed to make any
agreement or understanding in this Agreement in such Person’s capacity as a
director or officer. Each Stockholder is entering into this Agreement solely
in
his capacity as the record holder or beneficial owner of, or the trustee of
a
trust whose beneficiaries are the beneficial owners of, such Stockholder’s
Subject Shares and nothing herein shall limit or affect any actions taken by
a
Stockholder in his capacity as a director or officer of the
Company.

hereto shall be relieved from any liability for fraud or any willful breach
of

survive the termination of this Agreement.
