Agreement.
D. WHEREAS, Phoenix is a member of the Company and the owner of all Class E Units of the Company.
E. WHEREAS, notwithstanding certain existing future purchase and sale obligations among the parties
hereto pursuant to the Acquisition Agreement and the Put/Call Agreements, Phoenix desires to purchase and the
Sellers desire to sell all of their Class C Units (the "Installment Sale Units") effective as of September 30,
2005.
F. WHEREAS, concurrently herewith, Phoenix is entering into additional letter agreements with other
owners of outstanding Class C Units pursuant to which such holders are agreeing to sell to Phoenix, and Phoenix
is agreeing to purchase, all of the Class C Units held by such owners (the sale of such additional Class C
Units, together with the Installment Sale Unit Purchase (as defined below), the "Second-Stage Sale").
G. WHEREAS, the parties hereto desire to consummate the Second-Stage Sale as of September 30, 2005,
and from and after such consummation, Phoenix will be the owner of the Installment Sale Units for all purposes
(including without limitation for all purposes under the Current Operating Agreement).
1. Purchase of Class C Units. Effective as of September 30, 2005 (the "Closing Date"),
Phoenix hereby purchases the number of Class C Units set opposite each Seller's name under the column heading
"Aggregate Number of Class C Units" on Exhibit A hereto, and each Seller hereby sells, assigns, transfers and
delivers such Class C Units to Phoenix (the "Installment Sale Unit Purchase"), free and clear of all
liens, restrictions and encumbrances (other than those imposed pursuant to the terms of the Current Operating
Agreement or for the benefit of Phoenix and/or the Company), as further evidenced by each Seller's execution
and delivery of an Assignment of Class C Units in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B.
2. Purchase Price.
(a) In full consideration of the Installment Sale Unit Purchase from each Seller, Phoenix
hereby agrees to pay each Seller the aggregate principal amount set forth opposite his or her name under the
column heading "Purchase Price" on Exhibit A hereto (such principal amounts, collectively, the "Purchase
Price"), which Purchase Price shall be paid by Phoenix in two installments as follows:
(i) the first installment of each Seller's respective share of the Purchase Price
(as set forth opposite such Seller's name under the column heading "First Installment" on Exhibit A hereto (the
"First Installment")) shall be wired in accordance with the wire instructions set forth opposite such Seller's
name under the column heading "Account/Wiring Instructions" on Exhibit A hereto (the "Account"), in immediately
available funds, on January 3, 2006; and
(ii) the remaining installment of each Seller's respective share of the Purchase
Price (as set forth opposite such Seller's name under the column heading "Second Installment" on Exhibit A
hereto, the "Second Installment")), plus accrued interest on the average daily principal amount of the Purchase
Price from time to time outstanding (calculated from and including October 1, 2005 through and including the
date on which all of the remaining principal amount of the Purchase Price is paid) at the rate of 4.75% per
annum (compounded annually), shall be wired to his or her Account in immediately available funds on January 2,
2007.
(b) From and after the consummation of the Installment Sale Unit Purchase on the Closing
Date, Phoenix's obligation to pay the Purchase Price and accrued interest thereon shall be unconditional.
(c) Each of Sellers Xxxxxx X. Xxxxxxxxxxx, Xxxxx Xxxxxxx and Xxxxxxx Xxxxxx (each a
"Promissory Note Seller") purchased a portion of their Class C Units from Phoenix with delivery of a promissory
note in favor of Phoenix dated as of January 1, 2003 (each, an "Existing Promissory Note"). In connection with
the sale of Installment Sale Units contemplated by this Agreement, the First Installment of the Purchase Price
payable to said Promissory Note Sellers as listed on Exhibit A in each case shall be reduced by the sum of the
outstanding principal amount under the applicable Existing Promissory Note plus the unpaid interest accrued
thereunder with respect to the period from January 1, 2005 through January 3, 2006 (plus any previously-accrued
and unpaid interest with respect to earlier periods), to determine the net amount of the aggregate payment that
will be payable to the applicable
2
Promissory Note Seller following the Closing Date. For all purposes, including without limitation all income
tax purposes, each Promissory Note Seller and Phoenix agree to treat such reduction of the Purchase Price by
the amount of such accrued interest in the same manner as if such reduction had not been made and the
Promissory Note Seller had made a payment of the accrued interest to Phoenix simultaneously with his or her
receipt of an amount equal to the applicable Purchase Price less the principal amount of the applicable
Existing Promissory Note. Simultaneous with the consummation of the Second-Stage Sale, Phoenix agrees to cancel
such Existing Promissory Notes and return them to their respective makers.
3. Prior Agreements Relating to the Class C Units.
The parties to this Agreement hereby acknowledge and agree that the Installment Sale Unit
Purchase is being made in lieu of any right or obligation of Phoenix and the Sellers following the date of this
Agreement to purchase and sell (respectively) any of the Installment Sale Units pursuant to Section 2.7 of the
Acquisition Agreement, or pursuant to the Put/Call Agreements entered into from time to time.
As of the time immediately prior to (and subject to the consummation of) the Installment Sale
Unit Purchase, (a) all Put/Call Agreements are hereby terminated and shall thereafter no longer have any force
and effect, and (b) Section 2.7 of the Acquisition Agreement is hereby waived with respect to the Installment
Sale Units (but for the avoidance of doubt, the Acquisition Agreement shall otherwise remain in full force and
effect in accordance with its terms). The Installment Sale Unit Purchase shall be deemed to occur pursuant to
Section 8.01(a) of the Current Operating Agreement, and as of the time immediately following the Installment
Sale Unit Purchase, the Sellers shall be deemed automatically to have voluntarily withdrawn as Members of the
Company pursuant to Section 9.01 of the Current Operating Agreement (and the Company and Phoenix each hereby
consent to such withdrawal). The Sellers shall remain entitled to receive all Company distributions made in
respect of the Installment Sale Units to the extent constituting income of the Company for the period ending on
(and including) the Closing Date, as provided in the Current Operating Agreement. For all times and periods
prior to the Closing Date, the terms of the Current Operating Agreement, including the defined terms therein as
incorporated into this Agreement, shall control notwithstanding any future amendment to or restatement of such
terms as may be effected as contemplated in clause (c) of Paragraph 4 hereof (it being agreed that the rights
and obligations of the Company, Phoenix and the Sellers pertaining to such periods prior to the Closing Date
will be governed by the terms of the Current Operating Agreement).
4. Consent to Sale and Transfer of Class C Units. The Sellers hereby approve of and give
written consent to (including, without limitation, in their respective capacity as a Member of the Company and,
if such Seller is a member of such committee, in their respective capacity as a member of the Management
Committee, in each such case for all purposes under the Current Operating Agreement) (a) the sale to Phoenix
pursuant to the Second-Stage Sale of all outstanding Class C Units (including without limitation the
Installment Sale Units) not currently held by Phoenix, and (in the case of Management Committee members) the
form of press release attached as Schedule 9 hereto, (b) such amendments to the Company's employment agreements
and noncompetition/nonsolicitation agreements with Management Members (including without limitation those
agreements to which any of the Sellers are a party) (collectively, the "Individual
3
Amendments") as are agreed to in connection with the Second-Stage Sale between Phoenix and such respective
Management Members who are parties thereto (provided that no such amendments shall take effect prior to
consummation of the Second-Stage Sale on the Closing Date, and such amendments shall be subject to such
consummation), and (c) subject to the final sentence of Paragraph 3 hereof and the continued use of certain
defined terms in other agreements as described in Paragraph 5 hereof, following consummation of the
Second-Stage Sale, the amendment and restatement of the Current Operating Agreement by Phoenix in such form as
Phoenix may determine in its sole discretion (and without the consent of any other person or entity to such
amendment and restatement), and the Sellers acknowledge and agree that such approval and consent set forth in
this sentence, together with the consent of other Members and Management Committee members entering into letter
agreements with Phoenix and the Company in connection with the Second-Stage Sale, shall constitute Special
Membership Approval and Management Committee approval of all of the matters contemplated by this Agreement and
the other letter agreements referenced herein (including without limitation for purposes of Section 4.04 and
Section 8.01(a) of the Current Operating Agreement). The Sellers hereby acknowledge and agree that, from and
after consummation of the Second-Stage Sale on the Closing Date, Phoenix and the Company shall be under no
obligation to reissue the Installment Sale Units (or any other membership or other ownership interests in the
Company) pursuant to Section 9.10 of the Current Operating Agreement or otherwise.
5. Non-Competition/Non-Solicitation and Confidential Information.
(a) For purposes of those certain Non-Competition/Non-Solicitation Agreements, dated as of
January 29, 2002, by and between each of the Sellers and Phoenix (each, a "Non-Competition Agreement"), (i)
each Seller hereby agrees with Phoenix that all references, if any, made to the "Operating Agreement" in the
Noncompetition Agreement to which such Seller is a party shall be deemed to be references to the Current
Operating Agreement and (ii) each Seller that is a party to an Amended and Restated Employment Agreement with
the Company, dated as of September 30, 2005 (each, an "Amended and Restated Employment Agreement") hereby
agrees with Phoenix that (A) all references made in the Non-Competition Agreement to which such Seller is a
party to such Seller's "Employment Agreement" shall be deemed to be references to the Amended and Restated
Employment Agreement to which such Seller is a party and (B) the definition of the term "Competitive Activity"
in the Non-Competition Agreement to which such Seller is a party is hereby amended to have the meaning set
forth in such Seller's Amended and Restated Employment Agreement.
(b) Each Seller who is not a party to an Amended and Restated Employment Agreement hereby
agrees that, while such Seller is employed by the Company or at any time after termination of his or her
employment with the Company, (i) such Seller shall not use Confidential Information (as such term is defined in
the Current Operating Agreement), for any purpose whatsoever other than the pursuit of the Company's business
(on its behalf while such Seller is employed by the Company) and in the performance of services for the
Company, and (ii) such Seller shall not disclose any Confidential Information to any third party without the
prior written consent of Phoenix, such consent to be given or withheld by Phoenix in the exercise of Phoenix's
absolute discretion, and (iii) such Seller will take all reasonable steps to prevent unauthorized disclosure of

pursuant to his or her directions.
