(b) For purposes of this Agreement, a "Spyglass
Change in Control" shall mean the consummation of (i) a merger,
consolidation, reorganization, recapitalization or tender offer
involving Spyglass, immediately following which the individuals and
entities who were the beneficial owners of the Common Stock of
Spyglass immediately prior to such transaction beneficially own,
directly or indirectly, less than 60% of the combined voting power of
the then-outstanding securities entitled to vote generally in the
election of directors of Spyglass or the resulting or acquiring
corporation in such transaction, (ii) the sale of all or
substantially all of the assets of Spyglass, or (iii) the acquisition
by any of the companies listed on Exhibit C attached hereto of
beneficial ownership (within the meaning of Section 13(d) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934) of shares of common stock of
Spyglass representing 20% or more of the outstanding common stock of
Spyglass.
3.2 Purchase Price. The purchase price to be paid by GI
to Spyglass for the shares of Common Stock of the Subsidiary owned by
Spyglass (the "Purchase Price") shall be *** of the fair market value
of the Subsidiary as of the date on which GI delivers the Exercise
Notice (as defined in Section 3.3(a) below) to Spyglass (the "Fair
Market Value"), to be determined as follows:
(a) Upon the delivery by GI of an Exercise Notice to
Spyglass, GI and Spyglass shall commence discussions regarding, and
shall use good faith efforts to agree upon, the Fair Market Value.
If GI and Spyglass reach such an agreement, they shall execute a
written instrument setting forth the agreed-upon Fair Market Value.
(b) If GI and Spyglass do not agree upon the Fair
Market Value within 30 days after the date (the "Exercise Date") on
which GI delivers the Exercise Notice to Spyglass, then:
(i) The Fair Market Value shall be the average
of the estimates, by each of three investment banking firms selected
in accordance with this Section 3.2(b) (the "Investment Banks"), of
the Fair Market Value.
(ii) GI and Spyglass shall each select, within 45
days of the Exercise Date, one Investment Bank, and shall deliver
notice to each other of the Investment Bank so selected. Neither GI
nor Spyglass may select an Investment Bank after such Party has
received notice that such Investment Bank has been selected by the
other Party. Spyglass and GI shall cause the Investment Banks
4
selected by them to together select a third Investment Bank no later
than 30 days following the Exercise Date.
(iii) Promptly following the selection of the
third Investment Bank, GI and Spyglass shall jointly engage the three
Investment Banks to make a written estimate of the fair market value
of the Subsidiary as of the Exercise Date (without applying any
discount due to a lack of a public trading market for the Common
Stock of the Subsidiary), and to deliver to each of GI and Spyglass,
as soon as practicable, but in any event no later than 75 days
following the Exercise Date, a written valuation report stating the
estimated fair market value of the Subsidiary and setting forth in
reasonable detail the methodology by which such estimate was
determined. The valuation estimates by each Investment Bank shall
take into account such factors as such Investment Bank, in its
reasonable discretion, deems relevant, which factors may include the
valuations of comparable privately or publicly held companies and the
estimated value of the equity of the Subsidiary in a private equity
financing, an initial public offering, and/or an acquisition of the
entire company. The valuation estimates prepared by the Investment
Banks shall be binding upon both GI and Spyglass and neither GI nor
Spyglass may dispute the fair market value estimates or the
methodologies used in arriving at such estimates.
(iv) GI shall pay the fees and expenses of the
Investment Bank selected by it; Spyglass shall pay the fees and
expenses of the Investment Bank selected by it; and GI and Spyglass
shall each pay one-half of the fees and expenses of the third
Investment Bank.
3.3 Exercise Procedure.
(a) To exercise the Purchase Option, GI must deliver
a written notice to Spyglass (the "Exercise Notice") which states
GI's election to exercise the Purchase Option and specifies a closing
date for the exercise of the Purchase Option (the "Closing Date"),
which date shall be no earlier than 60 days and no later than 90 days
after the Exercise Date; provided that if the Purchase Option becomes
exercisable pursuant to clause (i) of Section 3.1(a), the Closing
Date specified shall be the expiration date of the Sourcing
Agreement. The Exercise Notice must be delivered by GI to Spyglass
during the Option Term (although the Closing Date may occur after the
expiration of the Option Term, subject to the time limits in the
preceding sentence). If GI does not deliver an Exercise Notice to
Spyglass prior to the expiration of the Option Term, the Purchase
Option shall expire. GI shall be under no obligation to exercise the
Purchase Option. GI's delivery of an Exercise Notice shall be deemed
an irrevocable commitment to purchase the shares of Common Stock of
the Subsidiary owned by Spyglass, subject to the terms and conditions
set forth in this Section 3.
5
(b) On the Closing Date, subject to compliance with
all applicable laws and regulations (including without limitation the
Xxxx-Xxxxx-Xxxxxx Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976):
(i) Spyglass shall deliver to GI: (A) one or
more stock certificates representing the shares of Common Stock of
the Subsidiary owned by Spyglass, duly endorsed in blank or
accompanied by duly executed stock powers; (B) a certificate of the
Secretary of Spyglass certifying that Spyglass is the record and
beneficial owner of such shares of Common Stock, and that such shares
are not subject to any lien, pledge, security interest or other
encumbrance; and (C) a certificate of the Secretary of State of the
State of Delaware certifying as to the legal existence and good
standing of both the Subsidiary and Spyglass; and
(ii) GI shall: (A) pay to Spyglass the
amount of the Purchase Price, by a wire transfer of immediately
available funds to an account designated by Spyglass; and (B) deliver
to Spyglass a certificate of the Secretary of State of the State of
Delaware certifying as to the legal existence and good standing of
GI.
(c) If on the scheduled Closing Date the consummation
of the purchase and sale of the shares of Common Stock of the
Subsidiary owned by Spyglass cannot take place because the Purchase
Price has not yet been determined or because a legal requirement for
the consummation of such purchase and sale has not yet been
satisfied, the scheduled Closing Date shall be deferred until a
mutually agreeable later date. If such purchase and sale has not
been consummated by the date 120 days following the Exercise Date
(or, if the Purchase Option became exercisable pursuant to
clause (i) of Section 3.1(a), by the date 30 days following the
scheduled Closing Date), then either GI or Spyglass shall have the
right to cancel such pending purchase and sale; provided that neither
GI nor Spyglass may cancel such pending purchase and sale if the
failure to consummate such purchase and sale results primarily from a
breach by such Party of any provision contained in this Agreement or
a failure by such Party to use good faith efforts to effect the
consummation of such purchase and sale.
3.4 Restrictions on Transfer.
(a) Until such time as the Purchase Option has
expired unexercised, Spyglass shall not sell, transfer or otherwise
dispose of, and shall not pledge or otherwise encumber, any of the
shares of Common Stock of the Subsidiary owned by Spyglass, and no
such pledge or encumbrance currently exists. Notwithstanding the
foregoing sentence, Spyglass may transfer its shares of Common Stock
of the Subsidiary to a wholly-owned subsidiary of Spyglass, provided
such subsidiary delivers a written notice to GI agreeing to be bound

shares of the Subsidiary.
(b) Until such time as the Purchase Option has
expired unexercised, GI shall not sell, transfer or otherwise dispose
of, and shall not pledge or otherwise encumber, any of the shares of
Common Stock of the Subsidiary owned by GI, and no such pledge or
encumbrance currently exists. Notwithstanding the foregoing
sentence, GI may transfer its shares of Common Stock of the
Subsidiary to a wholly-owned subsidiary of GI, provided such
subsidiary delivers a written notice to Spyglass agreeing to be bound
by the terms and conditions of this Agreement with respect to such
shares of the Subsidiary.
3.5 Restrictions Regarding Employees. From and after the
Exercise Date, Spyglass shall not hire any employees of the
Subsidiary, reassign their employment responsibilities such that they
are performing services for Spyglass (rather than the Subsidiary) or
terminate their employment except for valid reasons.

adjustments made based upon actual financial results for the fiscal
year), or in accordance with such other schedule as may be agreed
upon by Spyglass and the Subsidiary. Spyglass shall be liable for
and shall pay all federal, state, local and foreign taxes incurred by
the Subsidiary as a result of its existence and operations.
7
4.3 Spyglass shall use good faith efforts in providing
services to the Subsidiary under this Section 4, and shall use the
same degree of care in providing such services as it utilizes in
providing such services for its own operations. In no event shall
Spyglass be liable for any error or omission in providing such
services, or defect in the services provided, except for any error,
omission, or defect attributable to the gross negligence or wilful
misconduct of Spyglass. Spyglass makes no representations,
warranties or guaranties, express or implied (including without
limitation any warranty of merchantability or fitness for a
particular purpose) with respect to the services provided to the
Subsidiary under this Section 4, and shall not be liable for any lost
profits or special, incidental or consequential damages caused by any
