ARTICLE VII
REGULATORY MATTERS
7.1 REGULATORY COMPLIANCE COOPERATION.
(a) If a Regulated Holder determines that it has a Regulatory Problem,
the Corporation agrees to take all such actions as are reasonably requested by
such Regulated Holder (x) to effectuate and facilitate any transfer by such
Regulated Holder of any securities of the Corporation then held by such
Regulated Holder to any person designated by such Regulated Holder, (y) to
permit such Regulated Holder (or any Affiliate of such Regulated Holder) to
exchange all or any portion of the voting securities of the Corporation then
held by such person on a share-for-share basis for shares of a class of
nonvoting securities of the Corporation, which nonvoting securities of the
Corporation shall be identical in all respect to such voting securities, except
that such new securities shall be nonvoting and shall be convertible into voting
securities on such terms as are requested by such Regulated Holder in light of
regulatory considerations then prevailing, and (z) to continue and preserve the
respective allocation of the voting interests with respect to the Corporation
provided for in the Certificate of Incorporation of the Corporation and this
Agreement and with respect to such Regulated Holder's ownership of the
Corporation's voting securities. Such actions may include, without limitation,
(x) entering into such additional agreements as are reasonably requested by
such Regulated Holder to permit any persons designated by such Regulated Holder
to exercise any voting power which is relinquished by such Regulated Holder upon
any exchange of voting securities for nonvoting securities of the Corporation;
and (y) entering into such additional agreements, adopting such amendments to
this Agreement, the Certificate of Incorporation and the By-laws of the
Corporation and taking such additional actions as are reasonably requested by
such Regulated Holder in order to effectuate the intent of the foregoing. As
used herein, "Regulated Holder" means any Investor that is (i) a "small business
investment corporation" licensed by the United States Small Business
Administration under the Small Business Investment Act of 1958, as amended, (ii)
a Regulation Y Holder (as defined below), and/or (iii) subject to any similar,
related or successor laws and regulations regulating banks, bank holding
companies, small business investment companies and their respective
subsidiaries.
(b) If a Regulated Holder elects to transfer securities of the
Corporation to an Affiliate who is, or upon such transfer would become, a
Regulation Y Holder (as defined below) in order to avoid or cure a Regulatory
Problem, the Corporation shall enter into such agreements with such Regulated
Holder and its Affiliates as it may reasonably request in order to assist such
Regulated Holder and its Affiliates in complying with all applicable laws. Such
agreements may include restrictions on the conversion, redemption, repurchase or
retirement of securities of the Corporation that would result or be reasonably
expected to result in such Regulated Holder or its Affiliates holding more
voting securities or total equity than it is permitted to hold under such
applicable laws. As used herein, "Regulation Y Holder" means any Investor that
is (or that is a subsidiary of a bank holding corporation that is) subject to
the various provisions of Regulation
13
14
Y of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve Systems, 12 C.F.R., Part 225
(or any successor to Regulation Y), so long as such Regulation Y Holder shall
hold such securities.
(c) If a Regulated Holder has the right or opportunity to acquire any of
the Corporation's securities from the Corporation, any other Regulated Holder or
any other person or entity (as the result of a preemptive offer, pro rata offer
or otherwise), at such Regulated Holder's request the Corporation shall offer to
sell (or if the Corporation is not the seller, to cooperate with the seller and
such Regulated Holder to permit such seller to sell) such non-voting securities
on the same terms as would have existed had such Regulated Holder acquired the
securities so offered and immediately requested their exchange for non-voting
securities pursuant to Section 7.1 (a) above.
(d) Before the Corporation redeems, purchases or otherwise acquires,
directly or indirectly, or converts or takes any action with respect to the
voting rights of, any securities, the Corporation shall give written notice of
such pending action to each Regulated Holder. Upon the written request of any
Regulated Holder made within 10 days after its receipt of such notice stating
that after giving effect to such action such Regulated Holder would have a
Voting Regulatory Problem, the Corporation shall defer taking such action for
such period (not to extend beyond 45 days after such Regulated Holder's receipt
of the Corporation's original notice) as such Regulated Holder requests to
permit it and its Affiliates to reduce the quantity of the Corporation's
securities they own or take other appropriate action in order to avoid the
Voting Regulatory Problem. In addition, the Corporation shall not be a party to
any merger, consolidation, recapitalization or other transaction pursuant to
which any Regulated Holder would be required to take any voting securities, or
any securities convertible into, or exchangeable or exercisable for, voting
securities, which might reasonably be expected to cause such Regulated Holder to
have a Voting Regulatory Problem. In no event shall the Corporation be required
to cause securities to be registered under the Securities Act or the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, pursuant to this Section 7.1.
7.2 COVENANT NOT TO AMEND.
The Corporation agrees not to amend or waive the voting or other provisions
of this Agreement or the Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws of the
Corporation if such amendment or waiver would cause any Investor to have a
Regulatory Problem, provided that any such Investor notifies the Corporation
that it would have a Regulatory Problem promptly after it has notice of such
amendment or waiver.
7.3 CERTAIN INFORMATION RIGHTS AND RELATED COVENANTS.
(a) Upon the request of any Regulated Holder, the Corporation shall
promptly:
(i) provide to such person and the U.S. Small Business Administration
(the "SBA") access to its books and records for the purpose of confirming
the use of the proceeds of such person's financing and for all other
purposes required by the SBA;
(ii) provide to such person and the SBA a certificate of its chief
financial officer (1) verifying the use of such proceeds and (2) certifying
compliance by the Corporation with the provisions of this Agreement
(provided that such certificate may be truthfully given);
(iii) provide to such person an assessment, in form and substance
satisfactory to such person, of the economic impact of such person's
financing, specifying the full-time equivalent jobs created or retained,
the impact of the financing on the Corporation's business in terms of
expanded revenue and taxes and other appropriate
14
15
economic benefits, including, but not limited to, technology development or
commercialization minority business development, urban or rural business
development, expansion of exports and assistance to manufacturing firms;
(iv) provide to such person such financial statements and other
information as such Person may from time to time reasonably request for the
purpose of assessing the Corporation's financial condition; and
(v) furnish to such person all information requested by it in order
for it to prepare and file SBA Form 468 or to prepare an assessment of the
economic impact of such Person's financing, and any other information
requested or required by any governmental agency asserting jurisdiction
over such Person.
(b) For a period of one year following the date hereof, neither the
Corporation nor any of its subsidiaries shall change its business activity if
such change would render the Corporation ineligible as a "Small Concern" under
the Small Business Investment Act and the regulations thereunder.
(c) The Corporation shall at all times comply with the
non-discrimination requirements of 13 C.F.R., Parts 112, 113 and 117.
7.4 CERTAIN DEFINITIONS

through one or more intermediaries controls, is controlled by or is under common
control with such person or entity.

as defined in Section 2(1) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and
includes such person's capital stock or other equity interests or any options,
warrants or other securities or rights that are directly or indirectly
convertible into, or exercisable or exchangeable for, such person's capital
stock or other equity interests.
"Regulatory Problem" means, with respect to any Investor, (i) any set of
facts or circumstance wherein it has been asserted by any governmental
regulatory agency (or a Investor believes that there is a substantial risk of
such assertion) that such Investor is not entitled to hold, or exercise any
significant right with respect to, the capital stock of the Corporation which it
holds or (ii) a Voting Regulatory Problem.
"Voting Regulatory Problem" shall exist when a person and such person's
affiliates would own, control or have the power (including voting rights) over a
greater quantity of securities of any kind issued by the Corporation or any
other person than are permitted under any applicable law.

ARTICLE IX
RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER
9.1 NONTRANSFERABLE SECURITIES.
The Securities shall not be transferable except in accordance with the
conditions set forth in the Shareholders Agreement.
9.2 RESTRICTIVE LEGEND.
(a) Each certificate representing, Securities issued hereunder shall
(unless otherwise permitted by the provisions of paragraph (b) and (c) below) be
stamped or otherwise imprinted with a legend in substantially the following
form:
"THESE SECURITIES HAVE BEEN ACQUIRED FOR INVESTMENT AND HAVE NOT
BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE
"ACT"). THEY MAY NOT BE SOLD, OFFERED FOR SALE, PLEDGED OR
HYPOTHECATED OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED IN THE ABSENCE OF AN
EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT AS TO THE SECURITIES UNDER THE
ACT AND APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS OR UNLESS AN OPINION OF
COUNSEL ACCEPTABLE TO THE CORPORATION HAS BEEN OBTAINED TO THE
EFFECT THAT REGISTRATION UNDER THE ACT AND APPLICABLE STATE
SECURITIES LAWS IS NOT REQUIRED."
(b) The holder of any Securities by acceptance thereof agrees, prior
to any transfer of any Securities, to give, written notice to the Corporation of
such holder's intention to effect such transfer and to comply in all other
respects with the provisions of this Section. Each such notice shall describe
the manner and circumstances of the proposed transfer. Upon request by the
Corporation, the holder delivering such notice shall deliver a written opinion,
addressed to the Corporation, of counsel for the holder of such Securities,
stating that in the opinion of such counsel (which opinion and counsel shall be
reasonable satisfactory to the Corporation) such proposed transfer does not
involve a transaction requiring registration or qualification of such Securities
under the Securities Act or the securities or "blue sky" laws of any state of
the United States. Such holder of Securities shall be entitled to transfer such
Securities in accordance with the terms of the notice delivered to the
Corporation, if the Corporation does not reasonably object to such transfer on
the basis that such proposed transfer involves a transaction requiring
registration or qualification of such securities under the Securities Act or the
securities or "blue
16
17
sky" laws of any state of the United States and requests an opinion with respect
to such issue within five days after delivery of such notice, or, if it requests
such opinion, does not reasonably object to such transfer within five days after
delivery of such opinion. Each certificate or other instrument evidencing the
securities issued upon the transfer of any Securities (and each certificate or
other instrument evidencing any untransferred balance of such Securities) shall
bear the legend set forth in paragraph (a) above unless (i) in such opinion of
counsel registration of any future transfer is not required by the applicable
provisions of the Securities Act; or (ii) the Corporation shall have waived the
requirement of such legends.
(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section, the
restrictions imposed by this Section upon the transferability of any Securities
shall cease and terminate when (i) any such Securities are sold or otherwise
disposed of (A) pursuant to an effective registration statement under the
Securities Act or (B) in a transaction contemplated by paragraph (b) above which
does not require that the Securities so transferred bear the legend set forth in
paragraph (a) hereof; or (ii) the holder of such Securities has met the
requirements for transfer of such Securities under Rule 144(k) or any successor
statute. Whenever the restrictions imposed by this Section shall terminate, the
holder of any Securities as to which such restrictions have terminated shall be
entitled to receive from the Corporation without expense, a new certificate not
bearing the restrictive legend set forth in paragraph (a) above and not
containing any other reference to the restrictions imposed by this Section.
