5.2 Obligation to Repurchase. (a) The Investor and the Company
agree that, to the extent that the conversion by the Investor of its remaining
2,500,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock at the time of the IPO would result
in the Investor holding more than 9.9% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock
on such date (assuming the conversion of all outstanding shares of Series A
Preferred Stock), then the Company will, immediately prior to the conversion of
Series A Preferred Stock by the Investor, repurchase enough shares of Series A
Preferred Stock from the Investor so that the Investor would hold no more than
9.9% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock immediately following the closing
of the IPO. The repurchase price shall be calculated in the same manner as set
forth in Section 4.a of the Certificate of Designation. The Investor agrees not

Designation. The Company shall pay the repurchase price to the Investor within

available funds to an account designated by the Investor in a written notice
delivered to the Company at the Closing.
(b) Exhibit A hereto contains a hypothetical illustration of
the conversion and the repurchase described in this Section 5.2. It is
understood and agreed among the parties that the example contained in Exhibit A
is solely for the purpose of illustrating and agreeing to the mathematical
calculation of the conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock held by the
Investor and the repurchase contemplated by this Section 5.2, and that the
numbers are not representations of actual prices that would be achieved in the
IPO.

pertaining to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, and shall
not issue any such press release or make any such public statement without

EXHIBIT A
Hypothetical Illustration
Assumptions
1. Initial public offering price in the IPO of $7.75 per share of Common
Stock
2. 591.5 million shares of Common Stock outstanding after the IPO.
3. Investor owns 2.5 million shares of Series A Preferred Stock
immediately prior to the IPO.
Calculations
1. If converted on the date of the closing of the IPO, the 2.5 million
shares of Series A Preferred Stock held by the Investor would convert
into 84.7 million shares of Common Stock.
2. Since 9.9% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock equals 58.6
million shares of Common Stock, the Company would need to repurchase
the equivalent of 26.1 million shares of Common Stock from the
Investor.
3. Therefore, immediately prior to the conversion, the Company would
repurchase from the Investor such number of shares of Series A
Preferred Stock that would convert into 26.1 million shares of Common
Stock. The repurchase price would equal 26.1 million shares x $7.75,
or approximately $202.0 million.
4. The remaining shares of Series A Preferred Stock held by the Investor
would convert into 58.6 million shares of Common Stock.
