Annex A attached hereto (such persons being hereinafter referred to collectively
as "Shareholders" and each individually as a "Shareholder"
W I T N E S S E T H:
- - - - - - - - - -
WHEREAS, each Shareholder is presently the owner of the outstanding
securities of the Company ("Securities") listed opposite such Shareholder's name
on Annex A attached hereto; and
WHEREAS, each Shareholder would like to grant to the Company, and then to
certain persons, a right of first refusal with respect to any securities of the
Company which the Shareholder proposes to sell or otherwise dispose of, and make
certain other agreements contained herein.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and of the mutual
covenants, terms and conditions set forth herein, the parties hereby agree as
follows:
1. Restrictions on Sale. During the term of this Agreement, each
--------------------
Shareholder shall not sell, assign, dispose of, transfer, pledge, or hypothecate
any Securities, whether by operation of law or otherwise, except as expressly
permitted by this Agreement.
2. Right of First Refusal. If a Shareholder (the "Selling Shareholder")
----------------------
proposes to sell, assign, dispose of or otherwise transfer any Securities (the
"Offered Securities"), then the Selling Shareholder shall notify the Company,
and the Company shall notify each holder of 10% or more of the Company's
outstanding shares of stock on a fully diluted basis, assuming conversion of all
outstanding convertible securities and the exercise of all outstanding options
(each, a "Qualified Shareholder" and collectively, the "Qualified
Shareholders"), in writing (the "Notice"), setting forth in reasonable detail
the terms and conditions of the proposed disposition of such Securities (which
must be for cash or other consideration with readily ascertainable cash
value) and the identity of the intended transferee (who must be a bona fide
independent third party offeree) and shall offer the Securities to the Company,
and then to the Qualified Shareholders, as provided hereinafter on the same
terms and conditions.
(a) Within thirty (30) days after receipt of the Notice, the Company
may elect to purchase all or part of the Offered Securities, at the price
and on the terms specified in the Notice. Such right to purchase shall be
exercised by written notice ("Company Exercise Notice") delivered or mailed
to the Selling Shareholder and to each Qualified Shareholder as provided in
Section 12 below, which notice shall specify the number of Offered
Securities elected to be purchased and the time, place and date for closing
of such purchase (which closing shall not be later than 30 days after the
date of the Company Exercise Notice) or that the Company has declined to
purchase all or a portion of the Offered Securities.
(b) If any of the Offered Securities are not to be purchased by the
Company pursuant to subsection (a) above (the "Unsold Securities"), the
Qualified Shareholders shall have the right to purchase all or a portion of
the Unsold Securities pro rata based on the number of shares of common
--- ----
stock of the Company ("Common Stock") held by each Qualified Shareholder
(assuming conversion of all outstanding convertible securities and the
exercise of all outstanding options) to the total number of shares of
Common Stock held by all Qualified Shareholders (assuming conversion of all
outstanding convertible securities and the exercise of all outstanding
options). Such right shall be exercised within the later of (i) ten (10)
business days after the receipt of the Company Exercise Notice delivered
pursuant to subsection (a) above, or (ii) if no Company Exercise Notice is
given, ten (10) business days after the expiration of the thirty (30)-day
period specified in subsection (a) above by written notice ("Shareholder
Exercise Notice") delivered or mailed to the Selling Shareholder as
provided in Section 12 below. The closing of such purchase shall take
place at the offices of the Company on the fifth (5th) business day
following the expiration of the ten (10) business day period specified
above. A Qualified
2
Shareholder may also indicate in such notice a number of Unsold Securities
in excess of its pro rata share, determined as hereinabove provided, if
--------
any, that it would be willing to purchase if such remain unsold after
completion of the offering of Unsold Securities as hereinabove provided.
Any such remaining Unsold Securities shall be sold to those Qualified
Shareholders who requested to purchase them on a proportionate basis.
(c) On the date fixed for closing pursuant to subsection (a) or (b)
above, the Selling Shareholder shall deliver to the purchaser(s) the
certificates representing the Offered Securities sold to such purchaser(s),
free and clear of all liens and encumbrances (other than legends on share
certificates in respect of applicable securities laws and contractual
restrictions such as those set forth in this agreement) and properly
endorsed for transfer and each purchaser shall pay the purchase price for
the Offered Securities purchased by it by delivery of a check payable to
the Selling Shareholder.
(d) If all Offered Securities referred to in the Notice are not
elected to be purchased pursuant to subsections (a) and (b) above, the
Selling Shareholder may, luring the ninety (90)-day period following the
expiration of the ten (10)-day period provided for in subsection (b) above,
sell any remaining Offered Securities not so purchased to the proposed
transferee on the same terms as specified in the Notice. If the Selling
Shareholder shall not have sold such Offered Securities within such period
or the terms of sale shall have changed, the right provided hereunder shall
be deemed to be revived, and such Securities shall not be sold unless first
reoffered to the Company, and then to the Qualified Shareholders, in
accordance herewith.
3. Effectiveness of Agreement. (a) This Agreement shall be effective upon
--------------------------
the consummation of the sale and issuance by the Company of shares of its
preferred stock pursuant to the provisions of the Preferred Stock Purchase
Agreement (the "Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement"), dated as of June 1, 1989,
by and among the Company, Warburg, ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Capital Company, L.P. ("Warburg") and
Vanguard Atlantic Ltd. ("Vanguard") and shall remain in effect until the

provided,
3

Public Offering for the period specified therein. If the transactions
contemplated by the Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement are not consummated on or
prior to June 30, 1989, then this Agreement shall be terminated and be of no
force or effect.

intestacy, to such Shareholder's heirs, descendants or spouse, or any
custodian or trustee for the account of such Shareholder or such
Shareholder's heirs, descendants or spouse, or to such Shareholder by a
trustee or custodian for the account of such Shareholder or such
Shareholder's heirs, descendants or spouse; provided, however, that in each
such case all transferees shall receive and agree to hold such Securities
subject to the provisions of this Agreement, and there shall be no further

4. Legend. All certificates representing the Securities ;hall have
------
endorsed thereon the following legend:
"THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE ARE SUBJECT TO THE
TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF A CERTAIN STOCKHOLDERS' AGREEMENT DATED AS OF
JUNE 1, 1989 AMONG TSI INTERNATIONAL LTD. AND ITS
4
STOCKHOLDERS WHICH PROVIDES FOR, AMONG OTHER MATTERS, A RIGHT OF FIRST
REFUSAL ON THE SALE OF SUCH SECURITIES AND A LIMITATION ON RESALE OF
SUCH SECURITIES FOLLOWING A PUBLIC OFFERING OF THE COMPANY'S
SECURITIES. COPIES OF THE AGREEMENT MAY BE OBTAINED UPON WRITTEN
REQUEST TO THE SECRETARY OF TSI INTERNATIONAL LTD."
5. Dividends. If, during the term of this Agreement, there is a dividend
---------
of any security, stock split or other change in the character or amount of any
of the Company's outstanding securities, then in such event any and all new,
substituted or additional securities to which a Shareholder is entitled by
reason of his or her ownership of Securities shall, upon issuance, be
immediately subject to the provisions of this Agreement and shall be deemed
included in the term "Securities" for all purposes of this Agreement with the
same force and effect as the Securities presently subject to this Agreement and
with respect to which such new, substituted or additional securities where
distributed.
6. Public Offering Restrictions. Each Shareholder hereby agrees that, if
----------------------------
the underwriting agreement entered into by the Company and the underwriters of
such offering contains restrictions upon the sale of securities of the Company
other than those which are to be included in such offering, then for a period
commencing on the effective date of a distribution of shares of the Company's
common stock, or any security which is convertible into or exchangeable for
common stock, or any right, option or warrant to acquire common stock of the
Company in an underwritten public offering to the general public pursuant to a
registration statement filed with and declared effective by the Securities and
Exchange Commission pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933 (the "Initial Public
Offering") and ending one hundred fifty (150) days after such Initial Public
Offering, such Shareholder will not, directly or indirectly, sell, offer to sell
or otherwise dispose of any Securities other than any of such Shareholder's
Securities included in the Initial Public Offering. If in connection with the
Initial Public Offering the underwriters state in writing that they are
unwilling to include all of a Shareholder's Securities entitled to be included
therein because such inclusion will materially interfere with the orderly
5
sale and distribution of the securities being offered by the Company, then the
number of Securities of the Shareholders entitled to be included will be reduced
pro rata on the basis of the number of shares owned by the Shareholders, or
--- ----
there shall be no inclusion of such Securities in the registration statement and
proposed distribution, in accordance with the requirements of the underwriters.
7. Agreement of Shareholders. The Shareholders hereby agree to vote, when
-------------------------
properly submitted to them at a meeting properly convened, all Securities owned
by them entitled to vote thereat in favor of an amendment to the Certificate of
Incorporation of the Company: (a) increasing the number of authorized shares of
common stock of the Company to three million (3,000,000); (b) reclassifying all
outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock, par value $.01 per share, of the

("Class C Stock") as Common Stock, par value $.01 per share, of the Company
("Common Stock"); (c) eliminating any and all preemptive rights which would
otherwise attach to such shares by reason of Section 33-343 of the Connecticut
Stock Corporation Act; and (d) authorizing the creation of the preferred stock
to be issued pursuant to the provisions of the Preferred Stock Purchase
Agreement. The Shareholders also hereby agree to waive any preemptive rights
under Section 33-343 of the Connecticut Stock Corporation Act with respect to
any Securities owned by them which would otherwise be triggered upon issuance by
the company of shares of its preferred stock pursuant to the provisions of the
Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement.
8. Exchange of Certificate. On or promptly after the date of approval of
-----------------------
the amendment to the Company's certificate of incorporation as provided in
Section 7 hereof, each Shareholder owning shares of Class A Stock, Class B Stock
or Class C Stock shall deliver to the Company all certificates representing such
shares of Class A Stock, Class B Stock and/or Class C Stock in exchange for
certificates representing the shares of Common Stock issuable upon
reclassification of such shares of Class A Stock, Class B Stock and/or Class C
Stock as provided in Section 7 above.
6
9. Board of Directors. During the term of this Agreement, the Company and

of directors owned by such Shareholder in favor of the election of such
designees.

WHEREAS, the Company and certain of the Investors are parties to a
Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement dated as of the 1st day of June, 1989 (the

contained herein, the parties hereby agree as follows:
1. Purchase and Sale of Preferred Shares.

Investor hereby purchases from the Company, the number of Preferred Shares set
forth opposite such Investor's name on Schedule A hereto.

--------------
for the Preferred Shares is $13.39 per share. The purchase price will be paid by

delivery to the Company of a cashier's check in the amount set opposite each
Investor's name on Schedule A.
2. Representations and Warranties of the Company.
---------------------------------------------
The Company hereby represents and warrants to the Investors as follows:
2.1. Organization. The Company is a corporation duly organized,
------------
validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of
Connecticut. The Company has all requisite corporate power and authority and
holds all licenses, permits and other required authorizations from governmental
authorities necessary to conduct its business as it is now being conducted or as
proposed to be conducted and to own or lease the properties and assets it now

2.2. Charter Documents. The Company has heretofore delivered to
-----------------
counsel for the Investors true, correct and complete copies of the Company's
Certificate of Incorporation and By-Laws, each as in full force and effect on
June 5, 1989. There have not been any changes made to such Certificate of
Incorporation or By-Laws since June 5, 1989.
2.3. Capitalization. As of the date hereof, the Company's authorized
--------------
capitalization consists of 3,000,000 shares of Common Stock, par value $.01 per
share, and 750,000 shares of Preferred Stock, par value $.01 per share, of which

this Agreement have been duly and validly authorized. No further approval or
authorization of the shareholders or the directors of the Company or of any
governmental authority or agency will be required for the issuance and sale of
the Preferred Shares as contemplated by this Agreement. A true and complete
list of the holders of all issued and outstanding equity securities of the
Company on the date hereof, including the number of securities owned by each
such holder, is set forth on Schedule 2.3 attached hereto. Except pursuant to
the 1989 Agreement, no shareholder of the Company or any other person is
entitled to any preemptive rights with respect to the purchase or sale of any
securities by the Company.
2
When issued and sold to the Investors, the Preferred Shares will be duly and
validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable, will be free and clear of any
liens, pledges or encumbrances and will have the designations, preferences and
relative, participating, optional and other special rights as set forth in the
Company's Certificate of Incorporation. The Conversion Shares, when issued and
delivered upon conversion of the Preferred Shares, will be duly and validly
issued, fully paid and non-assessable. Except as set forth on Schedule 2.3
attached hereto, there are not outstanding options, warrants or other rights,
commitments or arrangements, written or oral, to which the Company is a party or
by which it is bound, to purchase or otherwise acquire any authorized but
unissued shares of capital stock of the Company or any security directly or
indirectly convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for any capital stock
of the Company.
2.4. Compliance with Other Instruments. The Company is not in
---------------------------------
violation of this Certificate of Incorporation or By-Laws. Neither the sale of
the Preferred Shares (or the issuance and delivery of the Conversion Shares),
the execution and delivery of this Agreement, nor the fulfillment of the terms
set forth in this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement, will: (i) conflict with or constitute a breach
of, or constitute a default under or an event which, with or without notice or
lapse of time or each, would be a breach of or default under or violation of the
Certificate of Incorporation or By-Laws of the Company or would be a breach of
or default under or violation of any material agreement, document, indenture,
mortgage or other instrument or undertaking by which the Company is bound or to
which any of its properties are subject, or would be a material violation of any
law, administrative regulation, judgment, order or decree applicable to the
Company; (ii) result in the creation or imposition of any material lien, charge
or encumbrance upon any property or assets of the Company; (iii) result in the
loss of any material license, certificate, legal privilege or legal right
enjoyed or possessed by the Company; (iv) give any party to any material
agreement to which the Company is a party a right of termination; or (v) except
as
3
provided for in this Agreement, require the consent of any other person or
entity under any agreement, indenture, mortgage, document or other instrument or
undertaking by which the Company is bound or to which any of its properties are
subject.
2.5. Authorization. The Company has the full corporate power and
-------------
authority to enter into this Agreement and to perform all of its obligations
hereunder. The execution, delivery and performance of the terms of this
Agreement by the Company have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate
action. This Agreement constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of the
Company enforceable in accordance with its terms. The Company, in light of its
business or proposed business, does not require any consent, approval,
authorization or order of, or declaration, filing or registration with, any
court or governmental or regulatory agency or board in connection with the
execution and delivery of this Agreement and the consummation of the
transactions contemplated hereby.
2.6. Compliance with the Securities Act. Based upon the
----------------------------------
representations of the Investors set forth herein, and assuming the truth of
such representations, the offer, sale and issuance of the Preferred Shares (and
the issuance and delivery of the Conversion Shares) are exempt from the
registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933.
2.7. Reservation of Common Stock. The Company shall reserve and keep
---------------------------
available out of its authorized but unissued Common Stock the number of shares
of Common Stock required for issuance upon the conversion of all of the
Preferred Shares (including any additional shares of Common Stock which may
become so issuable by reason of the operation of anti-dilution provisions of the
Preferred Shares).
3. Representations, Warranties and Covenants of the Investors. Each
----------------------------------------------------------
Investor hereby severally represents and warrants to, and agrees with, the
Company as follows:
4
3.1. Investment Intent. Each Investor is acquiring the Preferred
-----------------
Shares (and any Conversion Shares) for its own account and not with a present
view to, or for sale in connection with, any distribution thereof in violation
of the Securities Act of 1933. Each Investor consents to the placement of the
following legend on each certificate representing the Preferred Shares and on
each certificate representing the Conversion Shares:
"THE SHARES EVIDENCED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN
REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933 AND MAY NOT BE
TRANSFERRED OR SOLD UNLESS (i) A REGISTRATION STATEMENT
UNDER SUCH ACT IS THEN IN EFFECT WITH RESPECT THERETO, (ii)
A WRITTEN OPINION FROM COUNSEL FOR THE ISSUER OF MESSRS.
STROOCK & STROOCK & ▇▇▇▇▇ OR OTHER COUNSEL FOR THE HOLDER
REASONABLY ACCEPTABLE TO THE ISSUER HAS BEEN OBTAINED TO THE
EFFECT THAT NO SUCH REGISTRATION IS REQUIRED OR (iii) A 'NO
ACTION' LETTER OR ITS THEN EQUIVALENT HAS BEEN ISSUED BY THE
STAFF OF THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION WITH RESPECT
TO SUCH TRANSFER OR SALE."
3.2. Restricted Securities. Each Investor understands that the
---------------------
Preferred Shares (and any Conversion Shares) have not been registered under the
Securities Act of 1933 for the reason that the sale provided for in this
Agreement is exempt pursuant to Section 4 of the Securities Act of 1933 and that
the reliance of the Company on such exemption is predicated in part on such
Investor's representations set forth herein. Each Investor represents that it is
experienced in evaluating companies such as the Company, is able to fend for
itself, has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters as
to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of its investment, and has the
ability to suffer the total loss of its investment. Such Investor was not formed
solely for the purpose of investing in the Company. Each Investor further
represents that it has had access during the course of the transaction and prior
to its purchase of the Preferred Shares to such information relating to the
Company as it has desired and that it has had
5
the opportunity to ask questions of and receive answers from the Company
concerning the terms and conditions of the offering and to obtain additional
information (to the extent the Company possessed such information or could
acquire it without unreasonable effort or expense) necessary to verify the
accuracy of any information furnished to it or to which it had access.
Each Investor understands that the Preferred Shares (and any Conversion
Shares) may not be sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of without
registration under the Securities Act of 1933 or an exemption therefrom and that
in the absence of an effective registration statement covering the Preferred
Shares (or the Conversion Shares) or an available exemption from registration

is a list of the aggregate number of outstanding securities of the Company.
Except pursuant to the 1989 Agreement and the 1991 Agreement, no shareholder of

directly or indirectly convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for any
capital stock of the Company.
2.4. Compliance with Other Instruments. Except as set forth in
----------------------------------

default in the performance of any material obligation, agreement, instrument or
undertaking to which it is a party or by which it is bound. The Company is not
in violation of its Certificate of Incorporation or By-Laws. Neither the sale
of the Preferred Shares or Exercise Shares (or the issuance and delivery of the
Conversion Shares), the execution and delivery of this Agreement, nor the
fulfillment of the terms set forth in
-5-
this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement, will: (i) conflict with or constitute a breach of, or constitute a
default under or an event which, with or without notice or lapse of time or
each, would be a breach of or default under or violation of the Certificate of
Incorporation or By-Laws of the Company or would be a breach of or default under
or violation of any material agreement, document, indenture, mortgage or other
instrument or undertaking by which the Company is bound or to which any of its
properties are subject, or would be a material violation of any law,
administrative regulation, judgment, order or decree applicable to the Company;
(ii) result in the creation or imposition of any material lien, charge or
encumbrance upon any property or assets of the Company; (iii) result in the loss
of any material license, certificate, legal privilege or legal right enjoyed or
possessed by the Company; (iv) give any party to any material agreement to which
the Company is a party a right of termination; or (v) except as provided for in
this Agreement, require the consent of any other person or entity under any

--------------
and authority to enter into this Agreement and to perform all of its obligations
hereunder. The execution, delivery and performance of the terms of this
Agreement by the Company have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate
action. This Agreement constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of the
Company enforceable in accordance with its terms. The Company, in light of its
business or proposed business, does not require any consent, approval,
authorization or order of, or declaration, filing or registration with, any
court or governmental or regulatory agency or board in connection with the
execution and delivery of this Agreement and the consummation of the
transactions contemplated hereby.
2.6. Compliance with the Securities Act. Based upon the
-----------------------------------
representations of the Investors set forth herein, and assuming the truth of
such representations, the offer, sale and issuance of the Securities and
Exercise Shares (and the issuance and delivery of the Conversion Shares) are
exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933.
-6-
2.7. Reservation of Common Stock. The Company shall reserve
----------------------------
and keep available out of its authorized but unissued Common Stock the number of
shares of Common Stock required for issuance upon the conversion of all of the
Preferred Shares and Exercise Shares (including any additional shares of Common
Stock which may become so issuable by reason of the operation of anti-dilution
provisions of the Preferred Shares and the Exercise Shares).
2.8. Litigation. Except as set forth on Schedule 2.8 attached
----------
hereto, there is not now pending, and to the best knowledge of the Company there
is not threatened in writing, any litigation, action, suit or proceeding: (i)
to which the Company is or will be a party in or before or by any court or
governmental or regulatory agency or body; or (ii) to which any of the officers
or employees of the Company is or will be a party in or before or by any court
or governmental or regulatory agency or body, concerning termination by such
person of his or her employment with any of such person's former employers. In

order of any court, governmental department, commission, agency, instrumentality
or arbitrator outstanding against the Company having any material adverse effect
on the business or proposed business or operations, properties, assets or
condition, financial or otherwise, of the Company.
2.9. Compliance with Law. The Company is in compliance in all
-------------------
material respects with all applicable statutes and regulations of the United
States and of all states, municipalities and agencies in respect of the conduct
of its business.
2.10. Financial Statements. Attached hereto as Schedule 2.10
--------------------
are the audited balance sheets of the Company at April 30, 1991, and the related
statements of income and retained earnings and changes in financial position,
including the notes thereto, of the Company for the periods then ended, and the
unaudited balance sheet of the Company at March 31, 1992 and the related
statements of income for the period then ended. The financial statements
referred to above have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles consistently applied subject in the case of the interim
statements to normal year-end audit adjustments, and each balance
-7-
sheet fairly presents the financial condition of the Company as of its date and
each statement of income fairly presents the results of operations of the
Company for the period covered thereby.
3. Representations, Warranties and Covenants of the Investors. Each
-----------------------------------------------------------
Investor hereby severally represents and warrants to, and agrees with, the
Company as follows effective as of the delivery of the Purchase Price and the
exercise of the Warrants:
3.1. Investment Intent. Each Investor is acquiring the
------------------
Securities and Exercise Shares (and any Conversion Shares) for its own account
and not with a present view to, or for sale in connection with, any distribution
thereof in violation of the Securities Act of 1933. Each Investor consents to
the placement of the following legend on each certificate representing the
Preferred Shares, on each certificate representing the Exercise Shares, on each
certificate representing the Conversion Shares and/or each Warrant:
"THE SECURITIES EVIDENCED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED
UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933 AND MAY NOT BE TRANSFERRED
OR SOLD UNLESS (i) A REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER SUCH ACT IS
THEN IN EFFECT WITH RESPECT THERETO, (ii) A WRITTEN OPINION
FROM COUNSEL FOR THE ISSUER OR MESSRS. STROOCK & STROOCK &
▇▇▇▇▇ OR OTHER COUNSEL FOR THE HOLDER REASONABLY ACCEPTABLE
TO THE ISSUER HAS BEEN OBTAINED TO THE EFFECT THAT NO SUCH
REGISTRATION IS REQUIRED OR (iii) A 'NO ACTION' LETTER OR ITS
THEN EQUIVALENT HAS BEEN ISSUED BY THE STAFF OF THE
SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION WITH RESPECT TO SUCH
TRANSFER OR SALE."
3.2. Restricted Securities. Each Investor understands that the
----------------------
Securities and Exercise Shares (and any Conversion Shares) have not been
registered under the Securities Act of 1933 for the reason that the sale
provided for in this Agreement is exempt pursuant to Section 4 of the Securities
Act of 1933 and that the reliance of the Company on such exemption is predicated
in part on such Investor's representations set forth herein. Each Investor
represents that it is experienced in evaluating companies such as the Company,
is able to fend for itself, has such knowledge and experience in financial and
business matters as to be capable of evaluating the
-8-
merits and risks of its investment, and has the ability to suffer the total loss
of its investment. Such Investor was not formed solely for the purpose of
investing in the Company. Each Investor further represents that it has had
access during the course of the transaction and prior to its purchase of the
Securities and Exercise Shares to such information relating to the Company as it
has desired and that it has had the opportunity to ask questions of and receive
answers from the Company concerning the terms and conditions of the offering and
to obtain additional information (to the extent the Company possessed such
information or could acquire it without unreasonable effort or expense)
necessary to verify the accuracy of any information furnished to it or to which
it had access.
Each Investor understands that the Securities and Exercise Shares (and
any Conversion Shares) may not be sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of
without registration under the Securities Act of 1933 or an exemption therefrom
and that in the absence of an effective registration statement covering the
Securities and Exercise Shares (or the Conversion Shares) or an available
exemption from registration under the 1933 Act, the Securities and the Exercise
Shares (and any Conversion Shares) must be held indefinitely. The benefits of
Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933 are not presently
available, the Company has not covenanted to make the benefits of such Rule
available, and the Company has no present plans to make the benefits of such
Rule available.
4. Deliveries of the Company. On the Closing Date, as a condition
-------------------------
to the Investors' obligation to pay the Purchase Price provided under Section
1.2 hereof, the Company will deliver to the Investors executing this Agreement
the following:

accounting principles consistently applied subject in the case of the interim
statements to normal year-end audit adjustments, and each balance sheet fairly
presents the financial condition of the Company as of its date and each
statement of income fairly presents the results of operations of the Company for
the period covered thereby.
3. REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES AND COVENANTS OF THE INVESTORS. Each
----------------------------------------------------------
Investor hereby severally represents and warrants to, and agrees with, the
Company as follows effective as of the delivery of the Purchase Price:
3.1. INVESTMENT INTENT. Each Investor is acquiring the Preferred
-----------------
Shares (and any Conversion Shares) for its own account and not with a present
view to, or for sale in connection with, any distribution thereof in violation
of the Securities Act of 1933. Each Investor consents to the placement of the
following legend on each certificate representing the Preferred Shares and on
each certificate representing the Conversion Shares:
"THE SECURITIES EVIDENCED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE
SECURITIES ACT OF 1933 AND MAY NOT BE TRANSFERRED OR SOLD UNLESS (i) A
REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER SUCH ACT IS THEN IN EFFECT WITH RESPECT
THERETO, (ii) A
4
WRITTEN OPINION FROM COUNSEL FOR THE ISSUER OR COUNSEL FOR THE HOLDER
REASONABLY ACCEPTABLE TO THE ISSUER HAS BEEN OBTAINED TO THE EFFECT
THAT NO SUCH REGISTRATION IS REQUIRED OR (iii) A 'NO ACTION' LETTER OR
ITS THEN EQUIVALENT HAS BEEN ISSUED BY THE STAFF OF THE SECURITIES AND
EXCHANGE COMMISSION WITH RESPECT TO SUCH TRANSFER OR SALE."
3.2. RESTRICTED SECURITIES. Each Investor understands that the
---------------------
Preferred Shares (and any Conversion Shares) have not been registered under the
Securities Act of 1933 for the reason that the sale provided for in this
Agreement is exempt pursuant to Section 4 of the Securities Act of 1933 and that
the reliance of the Company on such exemption is predicated in part on such
Investor's representations set forth herein. Each Investor represents that it
is experienced in evaluating companies such as the Company, is able to fend for
itself, has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters as
to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of its investment, and has the
ability to suffer the total loss of its investment. Such Investor was not
formed solely for the purpose of investing in the Company. Each Investor
further represents that it has had access during the course of the transaction
and prior to its purchase of the Preferred Shares to such information relating
to the Company as it has desired and that it has had the opportunity to ask
questions of and receive answers from the Company concerning the terms and
conditions of the offering and to obtain additional information (to the extent
the Company possessed such information or could acquire it without unreasonable
effort or expense) necessary to verify the accuracy of any information furnished
to it or to which it had access.
Each Investor understands that the Preferred Shares (and any Conversion
Shares) may not be sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of without
registration under the Securities Act of 1933 or an exemption therefrom and that
in the absence of an effective registration statement covering the Preferred
Shares (or the Conversion Shares) or an available exemption from registration
under the 1933 Act, the Preferred Shares (and any Conversion Shares) must be
held indefinitely. The benefits of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities
Act of 1933 are not presently available, the Company has not covenanted to make
the benefits of such Rule available, and the Company has no present plans to
make the benefits of such Rule available.
4. DELIVERIES OF THE COMPANY. On the Closing Date, as a condition to the
-------------------------
Investors' obligation to pay the Purchase Price provided under Section 1.2
hereof, the Company will deliver to the Investors executing this Agreement the
following:
(A) an opinion of counsel to the Company, Fenwick & West, addressed
to the Investors, in form and substance satisfactory to the Investors;
(B) copies of certified resolutions adopted by the Company's Board of
Directors authorizing the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement
and the transactions contemplated hereby;
5
(C) a stock certificate registered in the name of such Investor
representing the Preferred Shares purchased by such Investor in consideration of
the Purchase Price therefor; and
(D) a certificate signed by the President or Vice President of the
Company that the representations and warranties in Section 2 are true and
correct as of the Closing Date.
5. DELIVERIES OF THE COMPANY UPON SUPPLEMENTAL CLOSING. As a condition
---------------------------------------------------
to the obligations of DBDI to pay the Purchase Price for the Preferred Shares
purchased in the Supplemental Closing, if any, the Company will deliver to DBDI
all documents required to be delivered to the Investors on the Closing Date
pursuant to Section 4 hereof.

Shares to Annex A thereto;

(D) The Investors, on behalf of themselves as holders of Series A
Stock, Series B Stock and Series C Stock, hereby waive their right to receive
any additional shares of Common Stock upon any conversion of their Series A
Stock, Series B Stock and Series C Stock as a result of the application of
Section III(4)(g) of the Certificate of Incorporation to the issuance of the
Preferred Shares hereunder.

Each of the Company, on the one hand, and the Investors, on the other
