STOCKHOLDER VOTING AGREEMENT
This STOCKHOLDER VOTING AGREEMENT (the "Agreement") is entered into on
July 30, 1997, by and among the undersigned stockholder(s) (collectively, if
more than one, "Stockholder") of Tango, a Delaware corporation ("Tango"), and
Twister, a Kansas corporation ("Twister").
WITNESSETH:
WHEREAS, concurrently with the execution of this Agreement, Twister,
Merger Sub and Tango are entering into an Agreement and Plan of Merger of even
date herewith (the "Merger Agreement") (capitalized terms used but not defined
herein shall have the same meaning assigned to such terms in the Merger
Agreement), pursuant to which Tango proposes to combine with Twister by means of
a merger (the "Merger") of Merger Sub with and into Twister in which (a) each
issued and outstanding share of common stock, no par value, of Twister (the
"Twister Common Stock"), other than shares of Twister Common Stock that are
owned by Twister as treasury stock, shall automatically be converted into the
right to receive 1.1 shares (the "Exchange Ratio") of the common stock, $.01 par
value, of Tango (the "Tango Common Stock"); (b) the issued and outstanding
shares of the common stock, $.01 par value, of Merger Sub shall be converted
into one hundred (100) shares of fully paid and nonassessable shares of common
stock, no par value, of the Surviving Corporation; and (c) each option to
purchase Twister Common Stock outstanding as of the Effective Time shall be
assumed by Twister as provided in Section 5.7 of the Merger Agreement;
WHEREAS, Stockholder owns, as of the date hereof, the shares of Tango
Common Stock as set forth on Schedule A attached hereto (collectively, the
"Existing Shares," together with any shares of Tango Common Stock acquired after
the date hereof and prior to the termination hereof, hereinafter collectively
referred to as the "Shares"); and
WHEREAS, Twister has entered into the Merger Agreement in reliance on
Stockholder's representations, warranties, covenants and agreements hereunder.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the mutual
covenants and agreements contained herein and intending to be legally bound
hereby, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:
2
ARTICLE I
PROXY
1.1 PROXY.
(a) With respect to the Merger Agreement or any Third Party Transaction
for which approval of the stockholders of Tango is sought, and any transactions
contemplated thereby, Stockholder hereby irrevocably makes, constitutes and
appoints Twister to act as Stockholder's true and lawful proxy and
attorney-in-fact in the name and on behalf of Stockholder, with full power to
appoint a substitute or substitutes. Stockholder further directs Twister, and
Twister hereby agrees, to vote all of the Shares which are entitled to vote at
any meeting of the shareholders of Tango (whether annual or special and whether
or not an adjourned meeting), or by written consent in the place and stead of
Stockholder in favor of the Merger as set forth in the Merger Agreement and
against any Third Party Transaction. By giving this proxy Stockholder hereby
revokes any other proxy granted by Stockholder at any time with respect to the
Shares and no subsequent proxies will be given with respect thereto by
Stockholder.
(b) All power and authority hereby conferred is coupled with an
interest and is irrevocable, shall not be terminated by any act of Stockholder
or by operation of law, by lack of appropriate power of authority, or by the
occurrence of any other event or events and shall be binding upon all
beneficiaries, heirs at law, legatees, distributees, successors, assigns and
legal representatives of Stockholder. If after the execution of this Agreement,
Stockholder shall cease to have appropriate power or authority, or if any other
such event or events shall occur, Twister is nevertheless authorized and
directed to vote the Shares in accordance with the terms of this Agreement as if
such lack of appropriate power or authority or other event or events had not
occurred and regardless of notice thereof.
(c) Stockholder agrees to use all good faith efforts to cause any
record owner of the Shares of which Stockholder is the beneficial owner to grant
to Twister a proxy of the same effect as that contained herein. Stockholder
shall perform such further acts and execute such further documents as may be
required to vest in Twister the sole power to vote the Shares in accordance
herewith during the term of the proxy granted herein.
(d) The proxy granted herein shall expire on the date of termination of
this Agreement.

6.2 ENTIRE AGREEMENT. This Agreement, together with the documents

prior agreements and understandings among the parties with respect to such
subject matter.
6.3 ASSIGNS. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the

together shall constitute one and the same document.

-5-
6
terms and provisions of this Agreement or affecting the validity or
enforceability of any of the terms or provisions of this Agreement in any other
jurisdiction. If any provision of this Agreement is so broad as to be

proceedings, including reasonable attorney's fees.
6.9 AMENDMENT AND MODIFICATION. This Agreement may be amended, modified
and supplemented only by a written document executed by Twister and Stockholder.
6.10 SPECIFIC PERFORMANCE. The parties agree that in the event of a
breach of any provision of this Agreement, irreparable damage would occur, the
aggrieved party would be without an adequate remedy at law and damages would be
difficult to determine. The parties therefore agree that in the event of a
breach of any provision of this Agreement, the aggrieved party may elect to
institute and prosecute proceedings in any court of competent jurisdiction to
enforce specific performance or to enjoin the continuing breach of such
provision. By seeking or obtaining such relief, the aggrieved party will not be
precluded from seeking or obtaining any other relief to which it may be entitled
at law or in equity.
