In connection with that Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Merger

each of the undersigned (collectively, the "Executives") hereby agrees to
consent to (a) the termination of the Holdings' 1997 Executive Stock Option
Plan, (b) the institution of a stock option plan of a newly formed limited
liability company (the "LLC") pursuant to which each of the Executive's stock
options will be exercisable only into shares of common stock of Holdings that is
owned by the LLC, (c) the conversion of each of the Executive's outstanding
options under Holdings' 1997 Executive Stock Option Plan into options under the
stock option plan of the LLC and (d) the terms (including, but not limited to,

plan of the LLC are to be agreed upon by the Executives and the LLC. Each of the
Executives hereby agrees and acknowledges that from and after the closing of the
