the requisite
1
power and authority to execute and deliver this Termination and to consummate
the transactions contemplated hereby. The execution and delivery of this
Termination and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby have
been duly and validly authorized by such party and no other proceedings on the
part of such party are necessary to authorize this Termination or to consummate
the transactions so contemplated. This Termination has been duly and validly
executed and delivered by such party, and assuming that this Termination has
been duly and validly authorized, executed and delivered by the other parties
hereto, this Termination constitutes a valid and binding obligation of such
party, enforceable against such party in accordance with its terms, except as
such enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency and
similar laws affecting creditor's rights generally and to general principles of
equity (whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law).
(b) NO CONFLICTS. Neither the execution and delivery of
this Termination nor the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby
will conflict with or constitute a violation of or default under any contract,
commitment, agreement, arrangement or restriction of any kind to which such
party is a party or by which such party is bound. Other than the Stockholders
Agreement and the Proxy Agreement there are no other agreements or
understandings with respect to the voting of the Shares.

Effective Time, the rights and obligations of (i) Apollo, the Company and the
Stockholders under the Stockholders Agreement and (ii) Apollo Management and
each of the Other Stockholders under the Proxy Agreement (including, without
limitation, the irrevocable proxy granted by each of the Other Stockholders to
Apollo Management), shall be deemed to be terminated and of no further effect
with respect to any shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by any of Apollo,
the Stockholders, or the Other Stockholders, as the case may be. Notwithstanding
anything herein to the contrary, this Section 2 shall not terminate or interfere
with any Other Stockholder's right to exercise its "tag-along rights" pursuant
to Section 6.2 of the Stockholders Agreement with respect to the Sale
Transaction.
3. GOVERNING LAW. This Termination shall be governed in all
respects, including validity, interpretation and effect, by the laws of the
State of Delaware (without giving effect to the provisions thereof relating to
conflicts of law).
4. COUNTERPARTS. This Termination may be executed in two or more
counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but all of which
shall constitute one and the same agreement.
5. DESCRIPTIVE HEADINGS. The headings herein are inserted for
convenience of reference only and are not intended to be a part of or to affect
the meaning or interpretation of this Termination.
