Inc., a corporation organized under the laws of the State of Delaware (the
"Company"), and the undersigned parties, hereinafter collectively called
"Stockholders," and individually called a "Stockholder."
RECITALS
A. On October 12, 1999, the Company and certain of its affiliates
(collectively, the "Debtors") commenced cases under Chapter 11 of Title 11
of the United States Code by filing voluntary petitions in the United
States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware, Case No. 99- 03612
(the "Bankruptcy Court").
B. On November 8, 1999, the Debtors filed their Joint Plan of Reorganization
and Disclosure Statement with the Bankruptcy Court, which was supported by
the Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors for the Debtors.
C. Following a hearing held on December 9, 1999, the Bankruptcy Court
approved the disclosure statement as amended and scheduled a hearing on
confirmation of the reorganization plan for January 20, 2000.
D. On December 13, 1999 the Debtors filed their First Amended Joint Plan of
Reorganization (the "Plan") and First Amended Disclosure Statement (the
"Disclosure Statement") with the Bankruptcy Court. Capitalized terms used,
but not defined, herein shall have the same meanings as in the Plan.
E. A hearing on the confirmation of the Plan was held on January 20, 2000 and
the Plan, as modified by the Confirmation Order, was confirmed by the
Bankruptcy Court pursuant to an order entered January 21, 2000 (the
"Confirmation Order").
F. The terms of the Plan provide that the Stockholders will invest
approximately $30 million in the Company to acquire approximately seven
million of the ten million shares of the Company's New Common Stock to be
issued upon consummation of the Plan.
G. On the date hereof, the Stockholders have also entered into another voting
agreement, separate from this Agreement, providing for the election of
certain initial directors of the Company and agreeing to subsequently vote
in favor of two individuals nominated by the New Indenture Trustee of the
New Secured PIK Notes in certain instances, a copy of which is attached
hereto as Exhibit A and incorporated herein by this reference (the "PIK
