shares of Common Stock (such shares, as may be adjusted from time to time
pursuant to Section 7, collectively with any shares of Common Stock which the

the consummation by the Stockholder of the transactions contemplated hereby will
result in a violation of, or a default under, or conflict with, any contract,
trust, commitment, agreement, understanding, arrangement or restriction of any
kind to which the Stockholder is a party or by which the Stockholder or the
Stockholder's assets are bound. The consummation by the Stockholder of the
transactions contemplated hereby will not violate, or require any consent,
approval, or notice under, any provision of any judgment, order, decree,
statute, law, rule or regulation applicable to the Stockholder.
(e) The Shares and the certificates representing the Shares
owned by the Stockholder are now, and at all times during the term hereof will
be, held by the Stockholder, or by a nominee or custodian for the benefit of the
Stockholder, free and clear of all liens, claims, security interests, proxies,
voting trusts or agreements, options, rights, understandings or arrangements or
any other encumbrances whatsoever on title, transfer, or exercise of any rights
of a stockholder in respect of such Shares (collectively, "ENCUMBRANCES"),
except for any such Encumbrances arising hereunder.

PURCHASER.
Each of Parent and Purchaser hereby, jointly and severally,

(b) This Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and
delivered by each of Parent and Purchaser, and constitutes the legal, valid and
binding obligation of each of Parent and Purchaser, enforceable against each of
them in accordance with its terms, except (i) as limited by applicable
bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and other laws of general
application affecting enforcement of creditors' rights generally and (ii) that
the availability of the remedy of specific performance or injunctive or other
forms of equitable relief may be subject to equitable defenses and would be

the Shares to Purchaser in the Offer as promptly as practicable, and in any
event no later than the fifth Business Day, following the commencement of the

expired without Purchaser purchasing all shares of Common Stock validly tendered
in the Offer.
(b) The Stockholder hereby agrees to the cancellation of each
outstanding option to purchase shares of Common Stock of the Company that is
held by such Stockholder, if any, immediately prior to the time of acceptance
for payment of the Shares by Purchaser in the Offer, in exchange for the
consideration described in Section 3.4 of the Merger Agreement. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, the amounts payable to the Stockholder in respect of his/her
Shares shall be reduced by the aggregate amount (including principal and
interest) of any and all loans or other indebtedness owed by the Stockholder to
the Company or any Company Subsidiary at the time of acceptance for payment of
the Shares by Purchaser in the Offer.
SECTION 4. TRANSFER OF THE SHARES.

foregoing ("Transfer"), any or all of the Shares or any right or interest
therein; (b) enter into any contract, option or other agreement, arrangement or
understanding with respect to any Transfer; (c) grant any proxy,

transactions contemplated hereby.
(b) The Stockholder agrees to surrender to the Company, or to
the transfer agent for the Company, certificates evidencing the Shares, and
shall cause the Company or the transfer agent for the Company to place the
following legend on any and all certificates evidencing the Shares:
THE SHARES OF COMMON STOCK REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE ARE SUBJECT
TO CERTAIN RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER PURSUANT TO THAT CERTAIN TENDER AND
VOTING AGREEMENT, DATED AS OF AUGUST 12, 2002, BY AND AMONG NRT

(a) The Stockholder hereby irrevocably grants to, and

attorney-in-fact (with full power of substitution), for and in the name, place
and stead of the Stockholder, to vote the Shares, or to grant a consent or
approval in respect of the Shares, in connection with any meeting of the
stockholders of the Company or any action by written consent in lieu of a
meeting of stockholders of the Company (i) in favor of the Merger or any other
transaction pursuant to which Parent or Purchaser proposes to acquire the
Company, whether by tender offer, merger, or otherwise, in which stockholders of
the Company would receive consideration per share of Common Stock equal to or
greater than the consideration to be received by such stockholders in the Offer
and the Merger, and/or (ii) against any action or agreement which would impede,
interfere with or prevent the Merger, including, but not limited to, any other
extraordinary corporate transaction, including a merger, acquisition, sale,
consolidation, reorganization or liquidation involving the Company and a third
party, or any other proposal of a third party to acquire the Company.
(b) The Stockholder represents that any proxies heretofore
given in respect of the Shares, if any, are revocable, and hereby revokes any
such proxies.
(c) The Stockholder hereby affirms that the irrevocable proxy
set forth in this Section 5 is given in connection with the execution of the
Merger Agreement, and that such irrevocable proxy is given to secure the
performance of the duties of the Stockholder under this Agreement. The
Stockholder hereby further affirms that the irrevocable proxy is coupled with an
interest and, except as set forth in this Section 5 or in Section 10, is
intended to be irrevocable in accordance with the provisions of Section 41 of
the Business Corporation Law of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts ("MBCL"). If
for any reason the proxy granted herein is not irrevocable, then the Stockholder
agrees, subject to the termination of Parent's rights hereunder as provided in
Section 5(d) and Section 10, to vote the Shares in accordance with Section 5(a)
above as instructed by Parent in writing. The parties agree that the foregoing

immediately upon the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 10.
SECTION 6. PARENT OPTION.
(a) GRANT OF PARENT OPTION. Subject to the terms and
conditions set forth herein, the Stockholder hereby grants to Parent an option
("PARENT OPTION") to purchase for cash all, but not less than all, of the Common
Stock (including, without limitation, the Shares) beneficially owned or
controlled by the Stockholder as of the date
4
hereof, or beneficially owned or controlled by the Stockholder at any time
hereafter (including, without limitation, shares acquired by way of exercise of
options, warrants or other rights to purchase Common Stock or by way of
dividend, distribution, exchange, merger, consolidation, recapitalization,
reorganization, stock split, grant of proxy or otherwise) by the Stockholder (as
adjusted as set forth herein) (the "OPTION SHARES") at a purchase price of
$19.00 per Option Share, or any higher price that may be paid in the Offer or
the Merger (the "PURCHASE PRICE").
(b) PARENT'S EXERCISE OF PARENT OPTION.
(i) Parent may exercise the Parent Option, in whole or
from time to time in part, by notice given to the Stockholder at any time
following (x) the failure of such Stockholder to tender the Shares into the
Offer no later than the fifth Business Day following the commencement of the

Agreement in accordance with Section 10 hereof.
(ii) In the event Parent wishes to exercise the Parent
Option, Parent shall send to the Stockholder a written notice (a "NOTICE," the
date of which is hereinafter referred to as the "NOTICE DATE") specifying a
place and date at least three Business Days but not more than 30 days following
the Notice Date for the closing (the "CLOSING") of such purchase (the "CLOSING
DATE"); PROVIDED, however, that Parent may at any time before the Closing
withdraw the Notice and decline to exercise the Parent Option without prejudice
to its right to exercise the Parent Option at any time thereafter during the
term of the Agreement; and PROVIDED, FURTHER, that in the event that any
filings, permits, authorizations, consents or approvals may be required under
the Xxxx-Xxxxx-Xxxxxx Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended, Parent may
extend the Closing Date for such additional time as may be reasonably necessary
to prepare and file such filings, permits, authorizations, consents or approvals
as may be required by such laws and regulations, and for such additional time as
may be required for the expiration of any waiting periods (as such period may be
from time to time extended by any Governmental Entity) or to obtain any such
authorizations, consents or approvals. Parent shall not be under any obligation
to exercise the Parent Option, and may allow the Parent Option to terminate
without purchasing any Common Stock hereunder from the Stockholder.
(c) PAYMENT AND DELIVERY OF CERTIFICATES.
(i) On the Closing Date, Parent shall pay to the
Stockholder in immediately available funds by wire transfer to a bank account
designated by the Stockholder, an amount equal to the Purchase Price multiplied
by the number of Option Shares to be purchased from the Stockholder on such
Closing Date MINUS the aggregate amount (including principal and interest) of
any and all loans or other indebtedness owed by the Stockholder to the Company
or any Company Subsidiary at the time of acceptance for payment of the Shares by
Purchaser in the Offer.
5
(ii) At the Closing, simultaneously with the delivery of
the Purchase Price for the Option Shares to be purchased at the Closing, the
Stockholder shall deliver to Parent a certificate or certificates representing
the Option Shares to be purchased at such Closing, which Option Shares shall be
free and clear of all Encumbrances, other than Encumbrances arising pursuant to
this Agreement. If at any time during the term of this Agreement the Company has
issued rights pursuant to a rights agreement, then each Option Share shall also
be deemed to include and represent such rights as are provided under such rights
agreement then in effect.
SECTION 7. CERTAIN EVENTS.
(a) In the event of any change in the Common Stock or Parent
Option by reason of a stock dividend, stock split, split-up, recapitalization,
reorganization, business combination, consolidation, exchange of shares, or any
similar transaction or other change in the capital structure of the Company
affecting the Common Stock or the acquisition of additional shares of Common

of Common Stock or otherwise): (i) the number of Shares owned by the Stockholder
shall be adjusted appropriately, (ii) the type and number of shares or
securities subject to the Parent Option, and the Purchase Price therefor, shall

corporation, but, in connection with such merger, the Common Stock then
outstanding shall be changed into or exchanged for stock or other securities of
the Company or any other Person or cash or any other property or (iii)
liquidate, then, in the case of any of (i), (ii) or (iii), Parent or its
designee shall thereafter be entitled to receive upon exercise of the Parent
Option the securities or properties to which a holder of the number of Option
Shares then deliverable upon the exercise thereof will have been entitled to
receive upon such consolidation, merger or liquidation, and the Stockholder
shall use its best efforts to assure that the provisions hereof shall thereafter

6
directors, employees, independent contractors, investment bankers, attorneys,
accountants or other agents, if any, in each case in connection with any

or data with respect to the Company or any Company Subsidiary or otherwise
relating to an Acquisition Proposal, or (iii) enter into any agreement with
respect to any Acquisition Proposal or approve or resolve to approve any

Stockholder or the Stockholder's Representatives, whether or not the Stockholder

Stockholder or Representative is purporting to act on behalf of the Company, the
Stockholder or otherwise, shall be deemed to be a breach of this Agreement by
the Stockholder. It is understood that this Section 8 limits the rights of the
Stockholder only to the extent that the Stockholder is acting in the
Stockholder's capacity as a Stockholder. Nothing herein shall be construed as
preventing the Stockholder in its capacity as an officer or director of the
Company, from fulfilling the obligations of such office (including, subject to
the limitations contained in Sections 6.2(a) and (b) of the Merger Agreement,
the performance of obligations required by the fiduciary obligations of the
Stockholder acting solely in the Stockholder's capacity as an officer or
director).
(c) Each Stockholder agrees with respect to the Shares that
for a period of twelve months following the date hereof, in the event that this
Agreement is terminated in accordance with Section 10 hereof, the Stockholder
shall not agree to (i) tender such Shares into any tender offer, (ii) vote such
Shares in favor of any Acquisition Proposal, or (iii) grant any option in
connection with any Acquisition Proposal, in any such case pursuant to any
agreement ("SUBSEQUENT AGREEMENT") that does not provide as a term thereof that

agreement between the Company and any other party relating to an Acquisition
Proposal.
SECTION 9. FURTHER ASSURANCES.The Stockholder shall, upon
request of Parent or Purchaser, execute and deliver any additional documents and

desirable to carry out the provisions hereof and to vest in Parent the power to
vote the Shares as contemplated by Section 5.

obligations of the parties hereunder, shall terminate immediately upon the
earlier of (a) the date of termination of the Merger Agreement in accordance
with its terms and (b) the Effective Time.

connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby shall be
paid by the party incurring such fees, costs and expenses.

Purchaser agree that it will not issue any press release or otherwise make any
public statement with respect to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated
hereby without the prior consent of the other parties, which consent shall not
be unreasonably withheld or delayed; provided, however, that such disclosure may
