designates such attorneys as such Covered Person's
-14-
15
agents authorized to receive notices and communications with respect to
such reports and any amendments thereto. It is understood and agreed by
each such Covered Person that this appointment, empowerment and
authorization may be exercised by the aforementioned persons for the
period beginning on the date hereof and ending on the date such Covered
Person is no longer subject to the provisions of this Agreement (and
shall extend thereafter for such time as is required to reflect that
such Covered Person is no longer a party to this Agreement).
Section 6.4 Adjustment upon Changes in Capitalization;
Adjustments upon Changes of Control; Representatives, Successors and Assigns.
(a) In the event of any change in the outstanding Common Stock
by reason of stock dividends, stock splits, reverse stock splits,
spin-offs, split-ups, recapitalizations, combinations, exchanges of
shares and the like, the term "Covered Shares" shall refer to and
include the securities received or resulting therefrom, but only to the
extent such securities are received in exchange for or in respect of
Covered Shares. Upon the occurrence of any event described in the
immediately preceding sentence, the Shareholders' Committee shall make
such adjustments to or interpretations of the restrictions of Section
2.2 (and, if it so determines, any other provisions hereof) as it shall
deem necessary or desirable to carry out the intent of such
provision(s). If the Shareholders' Committee deems it desirable, any
such adjustments may take effect from the record date, the "when issued
trading date", the "ex dividend date" or another appropriate date.
(b) In the event of any business combination, restructuring,
recapitalization or other extraordinary transaction involving GS Inc.,
its Subsidiaries or any of their respective securities or assets as a
result of which the Covered Persons shall hold voting securities of a
person other than GS Inc., the Covered Persons agree that this
Agreement shall also continue in full force and effect with respect to
such voting securities of such other person formerly representing or
distributed in respect of Covered Shares of GS Inc., and the terms
"Covered Shares," "Common Stock" and "Voting Interests," and "GS Inc."
and "Company," shall refer to such voting securities formerly
representing or distributed in respect of Covered Shares of GS Inc. and
such person, respectively. Upon the occurrence of any event described
in the immediately preceding sentence, the Shareholders' Committee
shall make such adjustments to or interpretations of the restrictions
of Section 2.2 (and, if it so determines, any other provisions hereof)
as it shall deem necessary or desirable to carry out the intent of such
provision(s). If the Shareholders' Committee deems it desirable, any
such adjustments may take effect from the record date or another
appropriate date.
-15-
16
(c) This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the
benefit of the respective legatees, legal representatives, successors
and assigns of the Covered Persons (and GS Inc. in the event of a
transaction described in Section 6.4(b) hereof); provided, however,
that a Covered Person may not assign this Agreement or any of his
rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of GS
Inc., and any assignment without such consent by a Covered Person shall
be void; and provided further that no assignment of this Agreement by
GS Inc. or to a successor of GS Inc. (by operation of law or otherwise)
shall be valid unless such assignment is made to a person which
succeeds to the business of GS Inc.
substantially as an entirety.
Section 6.5 Further Assurances. Each Covered Person agrees to
execute such additional documents and take such further action as may be
reasonably necessary to effect the provisions of this Agreement.

(a) The term of this Agreement shall continue until the first
to occur of January 1, 2050 and such time as this Agreement is
terminated by the affirmative vote of not less than 66 2/3% of the
outstanding Voting Interests. If this Agreement is terminated prior to
the expiration or termination of the restrictions on transfer referred

to Section 7.1(a) hereof, any Covered Person who ceases to be an
employee for any reason other than death shall no longer be bound by
the provisions of Section 2.2 and Section 6.1 hereof (unless such
Covered Person is subject to the PLP Transfer Restrictions in which
case Section 6.1 shall continue to apply until December 31, 2000) but
shall be bound by all other provisions of this Agreement until such
time as such Covered Person holds all Covered Shares free from PLP
Transfer Restrictions. Thereafter, such Covered Person shall no longer
be bound by the provisions of this Agreement (other than Sections 5.3,
6.2, 6.3, 6.5, 7.4, 7.5, 7.6,
-16-
17
7.8, 7.10 and 7.11 (the "Continuing Provisions")), and such Covered
Person's name shall be removed from Appendix A to this Agreement.
(c) Unless this Agreement is theretofore terminated pursuant
to Section 7.1(a) hereof, the estate of any Covered Person who ceases
to be an employee by reason of death or any Covered Person who ceases
to be an employee for any reason other than death and who subsequently
dies shall from and after the date of such death be bound only by the
restrictions on transfer imposed by Section 2.3(a) hereof and the
Continuing Provisions; and upon the expiration of the restrictions in
Section 2.3(a), the estate of such Covered Person shall no longer be
bound by the provisions of this Agreement (other than the Continuing

Section 7.2 Amendments.
(a) Except as provided in this Section 7.2, provisions of this
Agreement may be amended only by the affirmative vote of a majority of
the outstanding Voting Interests.
(b) This Section 7.2(b), Section 7.1(a) and Section 7.3(a)(i)
may be amended only by the affirmative vote of 66 2/3% of the
outstanding Voting Interests. Any amendment of any other provision of
this Agreement that would have the effect, in connection with a tender
or exchange offer by any person other than the Company as to which the
Board of Directors of GS Inc. is recommending rejection, of permitting
Transfers which would not be permitted by the terms of this Agreement
as theretofore in effect shall also require the affirmative vote of
66 2/3% of the outstanding Voting Interests.
(c) This Section 7.2(c), Article V, Section 7.3(b) and any
other provision the amendment (or addition) of which has the effect of

approval of the Shareholders' Committee and the affirmative vote of a
majority of the Voting Interests or (ii) by the affirmative vote of
66 2/3% of the outstanding Voting Interests.
(d) In addition to any other vote or approval that may be
required under this Section 7.2, any amendment to the General Transfer
Restrictions that would make such General Transfer Restrictions
materially more onerous to a Covered Person will not be enforceable
against that Covered Person unless that Covered Person has consented to
such amendment.
-17-
18
(e) In addition to any other vote or approval that may be
required under this Section 7.2, any amendment of this Agreement that
has the effect of changing the obligations of GS Inc. hereunder to make
such obligations materially more onerous to GS Inc. shall require the
approval of GS Inc.
(f) In addition to any other vote or approval that may be
required under this Section 7.2, any amendment that has the effect of
amending the provisions of Section 2.3(a), 2.3(b) or 2.3(c) shall
require the approval of GS Inc.
(g) Each Covered Person understands that it is intended that
each managing director of the Company will be a Covered Person under
this Agreement or will become a Covered Person upon his appointment to
such position, and each Covered Person further understands that from
time to time certain other persons may become Covered Persons and
certain Covered Persons will cease to be bound by the provisions of
this Agreement pursuant to the terms hereof. Accordingly, this
Agreement may be amended by action of the Shareholders' Committee from
time to time and without the approval of any other person, but solely
for the purposes of (i) adding to Appendix A such persons as shall be
made party to this Agreement pursuant to the terms hereof or shall (A)
be appointed managing directors of the Company and (B) execute a
counterpart of the signature page of this Agreement, such addition to
be effective as of the time of such action or appointment and (ii)
removing from Appendix A such persons as shall cease to be bound by the
provisions of this Agreement pursuant to Sections 7.1(b) or (c) hereof,
which additions and removals shall be given effect from time to time by
appropriate changes to Appendix A.

(i) The Transfer Restrictions may be waived, in
connection with any tender or exchange offer by

of the outstanding Voting Interests;
(ii) The Transfer Restrictions may be waived, in
connection with any tender or exchange offer by
any person other than the
-18-
19
Company as to which the Board of Directors

not making any recommendation with respect
to acceptance at the time of such waiver,

the provisions of this Agreement may be
waived only by the affirmative vote of a

holders of the outstanding Voting Interests
may not waive the provisions of this
Agreement in the circumstances set forth in
Section 7.3(b); and
(v) In addition to any other action that may be
required under this Section 7.3(a), any
waiver that has the effect of waiving the
provisions of Section 2.3(a), 2.3(b) or

(b) The Shareholders' Committee may waive the Transfer
Restrictions and the other provisions of this Agreement without the
consent of any other person as follows:

generally or in particular situations; and
(D) particular Covered Persons or all
Covered Persons to Transfer Covered Shares

but not generally (provided that in each of
(A) through (D),
-19-
20
waivers of the restrictions imposed by Section
2.3(a), 2.3(b) and 2.3(c) shall also require
the prior written consent of GS Inc.);
(ii) The Shareholders' Committee may waive the PLP
Transfer Restrictions in all circumstances
other than in connection with a tender or
exchange offer by any person other than the
Company; and
(iii) The Shareholders' Committee may waive any or
all of the Transfer Restrictions and the other
provisions of this Agreement with respect to
Covered Shares owned by a person at the time
the person becomes a managing director of the
Company or acquired by the person in connection
with such person's becoming a managing director
of the Company; provided that such person was
not an employee of the Company prior to the
granting of such waiver by the Shareholders'
Committee.
(c) GS Inc. agrees that the PLP Transfer Restrictions shall be
deemed to be waived under the Plan of Incorporation if they are waived
as provided in this Agreement.

impose such conditions as they determine on the granting of such
waivers.
(e) The failure of the Company or the Shareholders' Committee
at any time or times to require performance of any provision of this
Agreement shall in no manner affect the rights at a later time to
enforce the same. No waiver by the Company or the Shareholders'
Committee of the breach of any term contained in this Agreement,
whether by conduct or otherwise, in any one or more instances, shall be
deemed to be or construed as a further or continuing waiver of any such
breach or the breach of any other term of this Agreement.

REGARD TO PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICTS OF LAWS.

exclusive power to enforce the provisions of this Agreement. The
Shareholders' Committee may in its sole discretion request GS Inc. to

(b) Without diminishing the finality and conclusive effect of
any determination by the Shareholders' Committee of any matter under

arising out of or relating to or concerning the provisions of this
Agreement shall be finally settled by arbitration in New York City

accordance with the commercial arbitration rules of the AAA.
(c) Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraph (b), and in
addition to its right to submit any dispute or controversy to

purposes of this paragraph (c), each Covered Person (i) expressly
consents to the application of paragraph (d) to any such action or
proceeding, (ii) agrees that proof shall not be required that monetary

EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF ANY STATE OR FEDERAL COURT LOCATED IN THE

proceeding in any other court for the purpose of enforcing the

permitted by applicable law, any objection which they now or hereafter
