deliver written notice to the Company describing in reasonable detail the
transfer or proposed transfer, together with an opinion of counsel which (to the
Company's reasonable satisfaction) is knowledgeable in securities law matters to

under the Securities Act, the Company shall promptly upon such contemplated
transfer deliver new certificates for such Investor Stock which do not bear the
Securities Act legend set forth in Section 4A hereof. If the Company is not
required to deliver

transferee has confirmed to the Company in writing its agreement to be
bound by the conditions contained in this Section and Section 4A hereof.

supply to the Purchaser or its prospective transferees all information

transfer pursuant to Rule 144A of the Securities and Exchange Commission.

-----------
The Sale Notice will disclose in reasonable detail the number of shares to be
transferred and the terms and conditions of the proposed Transfer and, if known,
the identity of the prospective transferee(s) . Purchaser will not consummate
any such Transfer until 60 days after the Sale Notice has been given to the
Company and to GTCR, unless the parties to the Transfer have been fully
determined pursuant to this Section 3B and Section 3C prior to the expiration of
such 60-day period. (The date of the first to occur of such events is referred
to herein as the "Authorization Date.")
-------------------

days after the Sale Notice has been given to the Company. If the Company has not
elected to purchase all of the Investor Stock to be transferred, GTCR may elect
to purchase all (but not less than all) of the Investor Stock to be transferred
upon the same terms and conditions as those set forth in the Sale Notice by
giving written notice of such election to Purchaser within 60 days after the
Sale Notice has been given to GTCR. If neither the Company nor GTCR elect to
purchase all of the
- 6 -
shares of Investor Stock specified in the Sale Notice, Purchaser may transfer
the shares of Investor Stock specified in the Sale Notice at a price and on
terms no more favorable to the transferee(s) thereof than specified in the Sale
Notice during the 180-day period immediately following the Authorization Date.
Any shares of Investor Stock not transferred within such 180-day period will be
subject to the provisions of this Section 3C upon subsequent transfer.

-----------------------------------------------------
provisions of Sections 3B and 3C shall not apply to any Transfer of Investor
Stock by Purchaser to the transferee of a portion of the Term Loan C then held
by Purchaser in an amount not to exceed the product of (i) the number of shares
of Investor Stock purchased by Purchaser hereunder multiplied by) the quotient
-------------
of (a) the amount of Term Loan C transferred by Purchaser to such transferee
divided by (b) the amount of Term Loan C held by Purchaser on the date thereof;
----------
provided that such transferee shall agree to be bound by all of the terms and
provisions of this Agreement and the Stockholders Agreement as if it were a
party hereto and thereto.
For purposes of this Section 3D; "Term Loan C" means Term Loan C as
