----------
not as a nominee or agent, for investment only and not with a view towards,
or for resale in connection with, the public sale or distribution thereof.

--------------------------
investor" as that term is defined in Rule 501(a)(3) of Regulation D.

-----------------------------
institutional buyer", as such term is defined in Rule 144A promulgated
under the Securities Act.

(iv) Reliance on Exemptions. Purchaser understands that the

Securities are being offered and sold to it in reliance on specific
exemptions from the registration requirements of United States federal and
state securities laws and that the Company is relying in part upon the
truth and accuracy of, and Purchaser's compliance with, the
representations, warranties and agreements of Purchaser set forth herein in
order to determine the availability of such exemptions and the eligibility
of Purchaser to acquire such securities.
(v) No General Solicitation. The Purchaser initiated
-----------------------
discussions with the Company relating to the purchase and sale of the
Securities contemplated by this Agreement on an unsolicited basis prior to
the date of this Agreement. The Purchaser did not initiate such

-----------
materials relating to the business, finances and operations of the Company
and materials relating to the offer and sale of the Securities which have
been requested by Purchaser. Purchaser has been afforded the opportunity
to ask questions of the Company. Purchaser understands that its investment
in the Securities involves a high degree of risk. Purchaser has sought
such accounting, legal and tax advice as it has considered necessary to
make an informed investment decision with respect to its acquisition of the
Securities. The Purchaser has received and reviewed a copy of Amendment
No. 2 to the Company's Registration Statement on Form S-1 as filed with the

limitation, the language therein under the caption "Risk Factors" (the
"Registration Statement").

----------------------
United States federal or state agency or any other government or
governmental agency has passed on or made any recommendation or endorsement
of the Securities or the fairness or suitability of the investment in the

the offering of the Securities.
(viii) Transfer or Resale. Purchaser understands that: (a) the
------------------
Securities have not been and are not being registered under the Securities
Act or any state securities laws, and may not be offered for sale, sold,
assigned or transferred unless (A) subsequently registered thereunder or
(B) sold in reliance on an exemption therefrom; and (b) neither the Company
nor any other person is under any obligation to register such securities
under the Securities Act or any state securities laws or to comply with the
terms and conditions of any exemption thereunder. In this regard,

the resale limitations imposed thereby and by the Securities Act.
Purchaser is able to bear the economic risk of its investment in the
Securities for an indefinite period of time.
5
(ix) Sophistication. Purchaser is an investor in securities of
--------------
companies in the development stage and acknowledges that it is able to fend
for itself, has knowledge and experience in financial and business matters,
knows of the high degree of risk associated with investments generally and
particularly investments in the securities of companies in the development
stage, is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of an investment in
the Securities and is able to bear the economic risk of an investment in
the Securities in the amount contemplated. Purchaser has adequate means of
providing for its current financial needs and contingencies and will have
no current or anticipated future needs for liquidity which would be
jeopardized by the investment in the Securities. Purchaser can afford a
complete loss of its investment in the Securities.

limiting the representations set forth above, the Purchaser agrees not to
make any disposition of all or any portion of the Securities unless and
until:

under the Securities Act covering such proposed disposition and such
disposition is made in accordance with such registration statement; or

the proposed disposition and shall have furnished the Company with a
detailed statement of the circumstances surrounding the proposed
disposition, and (ii) if reasonably requested by the Company, the
Purchaser shall have furnished the Company with an opinion of counsel,
reasonably satisfactory to the Company, that such disposition will not
require registration of such shares under the Securities Act.

(as defined in Rule 13d-5 of the Exchange Act) with respect to any securities of
the Company.

this Agreement, each of the parties hereto will make any filings required by the

Common Stock issued to Purchaser (i) may be converted by Purchaser into Class A
Common Stock only if all consents, approvals or authorizations of, or
declarations to or filings with, any governmental authority, including, without
limitation, filings required under the HSR Act and the termination or expiration

THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE
SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR ANY STATE SECURITIES LAW, AND
MAY NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD, TRANSFERRED OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF UNLESS
REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, AND ANY
APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS OR AN EXEMPTION FROM SUCH
REGISTRATION IS AVAILABLE. THESE SECURITIES ARE ALSO SUBJECT TO
INVESTMENT REPRESENTATIONS AND A LOCKUP AGREEMENT WITH THE CORPORATION
PURSUANT TO A PURCHASE AGREEMENT DATED MARCH 29, 2000 WHICH RESTRICTS
THE TRANSFER THEREOF UNTIL [insert one year anniversary of closing], A
COPY OF WHICH CAN BE OBTAINED FROM THE CORPORATION AT ITS EXECUTIVE
OFFICES.
(ii) By accepting the certificates bearing the aforesaid legend,
Purchaser agrees, prior to any transfer of the Securities represented by
the certificates and subject to the restrictions in Section 11D, to give
------------
written notice to the Company expressing its desire to effect such transfer
and describing briefly the proposed transfer. Upon receiving such notice,
the Company shall present copies thereof to its counsel and the following
provisions shall apply:
(a) subject to Section 11D, if, in the reasonable opinion of
-----------
counsel to the Company, the proposed transfer of such Securities may be
effected without registration under the Securities Act and applicable state
securities acts, the Company shall promptly thereafter notify Purchaser,
whereupon Purchaser shall be entitled to transfer such Securities, all in
accordance with the terms of the notice delivered by Purchaser and upon
such further terms and conditions as shall be required to ensure compliance
with the Securities Act and the applicable state securities acts, and, upon
surrender of the certificate evidencing such Securities, in exchange
therefor, a new certificate not bearing a legend of the character set forth
above if such counsel reasonably believes that such legend is no longer
required under the Securities Act and the applicable state securities acts;
and
11
(b) subject to Section 11D, if, in the reasonable opinion
-----------
of counsel to the Company, the proposed transfer of such Securities may not
be effected without registration under the Securities Act or the applicable
state securities acts, a copy of such opinion shall be promptly delivered
to Purchaser, and such proposed transfer shall not be made unless such
registration is then in effect.
(iii) The Company may, from time to time, make stop transfer
notations in its records and deliver stop transfer instructions to its
transfer agent to the extent its counsel considers it necessary to ensure
compliance with the Securities Act and the applicable state securities
acts.
11D. Lock-up Agreements. In order to induce the Company to enter into
------------------
this Agreement, until the 12-month anniversary of the Closing, Purchaser shall
not, directly or indirectly, sell, offer to sell, contract to sell, assign,
transfer or otherwise dispose of, or engage in any other transaction (including,
without limitation, any pledge, put, call, collar, hedge or short sale) which
reduces the risk of ownership of, any of such securities. Purchaser agrees and
consents to the entry of stop transfer instructions with the Company's transfer
agent against the transfer of the Securities held by the Purchaser except in
compliance with the foregoing restrictions.
11E. Successors and Assigns. Except as otherwise expressly provided
----------------------
herein, all covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement by or on behalf
of any of the parties hereto shall bind and inure to the benefit of the
respective successors and assigns of the parties hereto whether so expressed or
not. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary herein, the
parties may not assign this Agreement.
11F. 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 prohibited
by or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective only to
the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder
of this Agreement.
11G. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed simultaneously in
------------
two or more counterparts, any one of which need not contain the signatures of
more than one party, but all such counterparts taken together shall constitute
one and the same Agreement.
11H. Descriptive Headings; Interpretation. The descriptive headings
------------------------------------
of this Agreement are inserted for convenience only and do not constitute a
substantive part of this Agreement. The use of the word "including" in this

11I. Governing Law. The general corporation law of the State of
-------------
Delaware shall govern all issues and questions concerning the relative rights
and obligations of the Company and its stockholders. All other issues and
questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation
of this Agreement and the schedules and exhibits hereto shall be governed by,
and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Illinois, without
giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law rules or provisions
(whether of the State of Illinois or any other jurisdiction) that would cause
the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of
Illinois. In furtherance of the foregoing, the internal law of the State of
Illinois shall control the interpretation and construction of this Agreement
(and all schedules and exhibits hereto), even though under that jurisdiction's
choice of law or conflict of law analysis, the substantive law of some other
jurisdiction would ordinarily apply.
11J. Notices. All notices, demands or other communications to be
-------
given or delivered under or by reason of the provisions of this Agreement shall
