(c) Delivery by the Purchaser. At the Closing, the Purchaser shall deliver to Holding the consideration referred to in Section 1(b) hereof.

3. Purchaser’s Representations, Warranties and Covenants.

(a) Investment Intention. The Purchaser represents and warrants that the Purchaser is acquiring the Shares solely for the Purchaser’s own account for investment and not with a view to or for sale in connection with any distribution thereof. The Purchaser agrees that the Purchaser will not, directly or indirectly, offer, transfer, sell, pledge, hypothecate or otherwise dispose of any of the Shares (or solicit any offers to buy, purchase or otherwise acquire or take a pledge of any Shares), except in compliance with the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) thereunder, and in compliance with applicable state and foreign securities or “blue sky” laws. The Purchaser further understands, acknowledges and agrees that none of the Shares may be transferred, sold, pledged, hypothecated or otherwise disposed of unless the provisions of (i) this Agreement, (ii) Section 2.1 of the Stockholders Agreement, dated as of June 30, 2003, among Holding, Citigroup Venture Capital Equity Partners, L.P., a limited partnership organized under the laws of Delaware (together with its affiliates, “CVC”), Ontario Teachers’ Pension Plan Board, a corporation without share capital organized under the laws xx Xxxxxxx, Xxxxxx (“OTPP”) and certain other stockholders of Holding (as amended from time to time, the “Stockholders Agreement”) and (iii) Section 5 of the Registration Rights Agreement, dated as of June 30, 2003, among Holding, CVC, OTPP and certain stockholders of Holding (as amended from time to time, the “Registration Rights Agreement”) shall have been complied with or have expired.

(b) Legends. The Purchaser acknowledges that the certificates representing the Shares shall bear the following legends or other appropriate legends:

(i) “THE SHARES EVIDENCED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE BEEN ACQUIRED FOR INVESTMENT AND HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “ACT”), AND MAY NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD, ASSIGNED, TRANSFERRED, PLEDGED, ENCUMBERED OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF (EACH, A “TRANSFER”) UNLESS AND UNTIL REGISTERED UNDER THE ACT AND ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL IS RECEIVED IN A FORM SATISFACTORY TO THE ISSUER THAT SUCH REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED.”

(ii) “THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE ARE SUBJECT TO (A) THE TRANSFER AND OTHER PROVISIONS OF A MANAGEMENT STOCK SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT, DATED AS OF JUNE 30, 2003; (B) THE PROVISIONS OF A STOCKHOLDERS AGREEMENT, DATED AS OF JUNE 30, 2003, AMONG THE ISSUER AND CERTAIN STOCKHOLDERS OF THE ISSUER (THE “STOCKHOLDERS AGREEMENT”) AND (C) A REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT, DATED AS OF JUNE 30, 2003, AMONG THE ISSUER AND CERTAIN STOCKHOLDERS OF THE ISSUER (THE “REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT”) AND NEITHER THIS CERTIFICATE NOR THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY IT ARE TRANSFERABLE EXCEPT IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE PROVISIONS OF THE MANAGEMENT STOCK SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT, THE STOCKHOLDERS AGREEMENT AND THE REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT, COPIES OF WHICH ARE AVAILABLE FOR INSPECTION AT THE OFFICES OF THE ISSUER. NO TRANSFER OF SUCH SHARES WILL BE MADE ON THE BOOKS OF THE ISSUER, AND SUCH TRANSFER SHALL BE VOIDABLE, UNLESS ACCOMPANIED BY EVIDENCE OF COMPLIANCE WITH THE TERMS OF SUCH AGREEMENTS.”

(iii) “THE ISSUER WILL FURNISH WITHOUT CHARGE TO EACH STOCKHOLDER WHO SO REQUESTS THE POWERS, DESIGNATIONS, PREFERENCES AND RELATIVE, PARTICIPATING, OPTIONAL OR OTHER SPECIAL RIGHTS OF EACH CLASS OR SERIES OF SHARES AUTHORIZED TO BE ISSUED AND THE QUALIFICATIONS, LIMITATIONS OR RESTRICTIONS OF SUCH PREFERENCES AND/OR RIGHTS.”

(c) Securities Law Matters. The Purchaser acknowledges receipt of advice from Holding that (i) the Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act based on an exemption provided under the Securities Act or qualified under any state or foreign securities or “blue sky” laws, (ii) it is not anticipated that there will be any public market for the Shares, (iii) the Shares must be held indefinitely and the Purchaser must continue to bear the economic risk of the investment in the Shares unless the Shares are

subsequently registered under the Securities Act and such state laws or an exemption from registration is available, (iv) Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act (“Rule 144”) is not presently available with respect to the sales of the Shares, and Holding has made no covenant to make Rule 144 available, (v) when and if the Shares may be disposed of without registration in reliance upon Rule 144, such disposition can be made only in accordance with the terms and conditions of such Rule, this Agreement, the Stockholders Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement, (vi) Holding does not plan to file reports with the Commission or make public information concerning Holding available unless required to do so by law or in connection with its financing arrangements, (vii) if the exemption afforded by Rule 144 is not available, sales of the Shares may be difficult to effect because of the absence of public information concerning Holding, (viii) a restrictive legend in the form heretofore set forth shall be placed on the certificates representing the Shares and (ix) a notation shall be made in the appropriate records of Holding indicating that the Shares are subject to restrictions on transfer set forth in Section 2.1 of the Stockholders Agreement and, if Holding should in the future engage the services of a stock transfer agent, appropriate stop-transfer restrictions will be issued to such transfer agent with respect to the Shares.

(d) Compliance with Rule 144. When and if the Shares may be disposed of without registration in reliance upon Rule 144, the Purchaser shall transmit to Holding an executed copy of Form 144 (if required by Rule 144) no later than the time such form is required to be transmitted to the Commission for filing and such other documentation as Holding may reasonably require to assure compliance with Rule 144 in connection with such disposition.

(e) Ability to Bear Risk. The Purchaser represents and warrants that (i) the financial situation of the Purchaser is such that the Purchaser can afford to bear the economic risk of holding the Shares for an indefinite period and (ii) the Purchaser can afford to suffer the complete loss of the Purchaser’s investment in the Shares.

(f) Accredited Investor. The Purchaser represents and warrants that he qualifies as an “Accredited Investor” under Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act. The Purchaser agrees to furnish such documents and to comply with such reasonable requests of Holding as may be necessary to substantiate the Purchaser’s status as a qualifying investor in connection with this private offering of Shares to the Purchaser. The Purchaser represents and warrants that all information contained in such documents and any other written materials concerning the status of the Purchaser furnished by the Purchaser to Holding in connection with such requests will be true, complete and correct in all material respects.

(g) Other Rights and Obligations. The Purchaser shall be entitled to the rights and subject to the obligations created under the Registration Rights Agreement and the Stockholders Agreement, each to the extent set forth therein.

4. Representations and Warranties of Holding. Holding represents and warrants to the Purchaser that (a) Holding has been duly incorporated and is an existing corporation in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware, (b) this Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by Holding and constitutes a valid and legally binding obligation of Holding enforceable against Holding in accordance with its terms, and (c) the Shares, when issued, delivered and paid for in accordance with the terms hereof, will be duly and validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable.
