delay or prevent the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby.
Section 4. Agreements and Acknowledgements of Investor. Investor hereby agrees and
acknowledges to Parent as follows:
4.1. No Registration. Investor understands and agrees that the Exchange Shares are
being acquired by Investor in a transaction not involving any public offering within the meaning of
the Securities Act, in reliance on an exemption therefrom. Investor understands that the Exchange
Shares have not been, and, except as set forth in the Registration Rights Agreement, will not be,
approved or disapproved by the Securities and Exchange Commission or by any other federal or state
agency, and that no such agency has passed on the accuracy or adequacy of disclosures made to
Investor by Parent. No federal or state governmental agency has passed on or made any
recommendation or endorsement of the Exchange Shares or an investment in Parent.
4.2. Limitations on Disposition and Resale. Investor understands and acknowledges
that the Exchange Shares have not been and will not be registered under the Securities Act, or the
securities laws of any state and, unless the Exchange Shares are so registered, they may not be
offered, sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of except pursuant to an exemption from, or in a
transaction not subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act and any applicable
securities laws of any state or foreign jurisdiction. Investor agrees not to sell, transfer or
otherwise dispose of the Exchange Shares unless the Exchange Shares have been so registered or an
exemption from the requirement of registration is available under the Securities Act and any
applicable state securities laws. Investor further acknowledges and agrees that his ability to
dispose of the Exchange Shares will be subject to restrictions
7
contained in the Stockholders Agreement. Investor recognizes that there will not be any
public trading market for Parent Common Stock and, as a result, Investor may be unable to sell or
dispose of his interest in Parent. Investor further acknowledges and agrees that, except as may be
set forth in the Registration Rights Agreement and the Stockholders Agreement, Parent shall have no
obligation to register shares of Parent Common Stock.
4.3. Legend. Investor acknowledges and agrees that the Exchange Shares received in
the Contributions and represented by physical certificates will bear the following legend (or one
to substantially similar effect):
“THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE BEEN ACQUIRED FOR INVESTMENT AND
HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED. SUCH SHARES
MAY NOT BE SOLD, TRANSFERRED, OR PLEDGED IN THE ABSENCE OF SUCH REGISTRATION OR
UNLESS THE COMPANY RECEIVES AN OPINION OF COUNSEL OR OTHER EVIDENCE SATISFACTORY TO
THE COMPANY AND ITS COUNSEL THAT SUCH REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED. THE SECURITIES
REPRESENTED HEREBY ARE SUBJECT TO ADDITIONAL RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER AND CERTAIN
OTHER AGREEMENTS SET FORTH IN A STOCKHOLDERS AGREEMENT, DATED AS OF ___,
2005. A COPY OF SUCH AGREEMENT WILL BE FURNISHED WITHOUT CHARGE BY THE COMPANY TO
THE HOLDER HEREOF UPON WRITTEN REQUEST.”
4.4. Newly Formed Entity. Investor recognizes that Parent was only recently formed
and, accordingly, has no financial or operating history and that the investment in Parent is
extremely speculative and involves a high degree of risk.
Section 5. Support of the Transaction. Investor and Parent shall use commercially
reasonable efforts to assemble, prepare and file any information (and, as needed, to supplement
such information) as may be reasonably necessary to obtain as promptly as practicable all
governmental and regulatory consents required to be obtained in connection with the Contributions
and the Cash Equity Capitalization, including, without limitation, any filings pursuant to or
required under the HSR Act. Parent agrees that it will not agree to any material amendment to the
Merger Agreement or waive any material condition set forth in the Merger Agreement without the
prior written consent of Investor.
Section 6. Attorneys’ Fees. In the event of any litigation or other legal proceeding
involving the interpretation of this Agreement or enforcement of the rights or obligations of the
parties hereto, the prevailing party or parties shall be entitled to recover reasonable attorneys’
fees and costs determined by a court of other adjudicator.
Section 7. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in
accordance with, the laws of the State of Delaware (without giving effect to the choice of law
principles therein).
8
Section 8. Specific Performance; Submission to Jurisdiction. The parties agree that
irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not
performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. It is accordingly
agreed that the parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of
this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement in Court of
Chancery or other courts of the State of Delaware, this being in addition to any other remedy to
which such party is entitled at law or in equity. In addition, each of the parties hereto (i)
consents to submit itself to the personal jurisdiction of the Court of Chancery or other courts of
the State of Delaware in the event any dispute arises out of this Agreement or any of the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement; (ii) agrees that it will not attempt to deny or defeat
such personal jurisdiction by motion or other request for leave from such court, (iii) agrees that
it will not bring any action relating to this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated by
this Agreement in any court other than the Court of Chancery or other courts of the State of
Delaware and (iv) to the fullest extent permitted by Law, consents to service being made through
the notice procedures set forth in Section 9. Each party hereto hereby agrees that, to the fullest
extent permitted by Law, service of any process, summons, notice or document by U.S. registered
