W I T N E S S E T H:
- - - - - - - - - -
WHEREAS, pursuant to the terms of the Stock Purchase Agreements, dated

A-2 Purchasers (the "Series A-2 Stock Purchase Agreements") and the Exchange
------------------------------------
Agreements, the Series A-2 Purchasers hold 163,845.6 shares (the "Series A-2

------------------
that number of shares listed opposite such Series B Purchaser's name on Schedule

------
WHEREAS, it is a condition precedent to the Company's and the Series

Company's and each Series B Purchaser's respective obligations to consummate the

-1-
that (i) the Stockholders' Agreement dated as of October 26, 1999, as amended,
among the Company, the Series A-2 Purchasers and Xxxxxx be terminated as of the
date hereof and such agreement shall be of no further force and effect and (ii)
that the parties hereto (including each Future Investor) enter into this
Agreement; and
WHEREAS, each of Xxxxxx, the Company, the Series A-2 Purchasers and
the Series B Purchasers desires to enter into this Agreement to regulate certain
aspects of their relationship;
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the arguments and mutual covenants
contained herein, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:
1. Rights of Inclusion (Tag-Along Rights).
--------------------------------------
So long as the Series A-2 Holders hold at least 25% of the Series A-2
Conversion Shares issuable on the date hereof each Series A-2 Holder shall have
the rights contained in this Section 1 or the Series B Purchasers hold at least
25% of the Series B Conversion Shares issuable on the date hereof each Series B
Purchaser shall have the rights contained in this Section 1, calculating the
Shares on an as-converted basis (to be appropriately adjusted to reflect any
stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization or similar event). If either the
Series A-2 Holders or the Series B Purchasers ceases to hold the requisite
percentage of Conversion Shares applicable, the rights contained in this Section
1 shall cease only with regard to such group.
(a) In the event Xxxxxx proposes to Transfer any Xxxxxx Shares (the
"Transferor Shares") to any Person (the "Buyer"), as a condition to such
----------------- -----
Transfer, Xxxxxx shall cause the Buyer to offer (the "Inclusion Offer") to
---------------
purchase from each Investor, at each such Investor's option, up to that number
of Shares determined in accordance with Section 1(b) on the same terms and
conditions as are applicable to the Transferor Shares, except that each Investor
shall not be required to provide any representation, warranty or other
undertaking other than with respect to its ownership of, and authority to
Transfer, the Shares owned by it free of any liens or encumbrances. Xxxxxx
shall provide prompt written notice to each Investor (the "Inclusion Notice")
----------------
setting forth all the terms and conditions of the Inclusion Offer, and each
Investor may accept the Inclusion Offer in whole or in part by providing a
written notice of acceptance with respect to Shares owned by it to Xxxxxx within
twenty (20) days of delivery of the Inclusion Notice to it (the "Acceptance
----------
Notice").
------
(b) Each Investor shall have the right to sell, pursuant to the
Inclusion Offer, Shares representing the same percentage of all Series A-2
Shares or Series B Shares (as the case may be) owned by it as the Transferor
Shares are of all Xxxxxx Shares owned by Xxxxxx (such percentage shall be
calculated on the basis that all shares of Series A-2 Preferred or Series B
Preferred (as the case may be) owned by each Investor have been converted into
shares of
-2-
Common Stock at the current conversion price per share under Section 4 of the
applicable Articles Supplementary for such class); provided, however, that if no
Investor elects to exercise such right, Xxxxxx shall nonetheless be entitled to
Transfer all or any portion of the Transferor Shares described in the Inclusion
Notice. In the event the number of Shares for which the Investors elect to
exercise such right, along with the Transferor Shares and any other shares of
the Company to be sold by other stockholders pursuant to any similar rights
granted to such other stockholders, exceed the number of shares which the Buyer
is willing to purchase, the number of shares to be Transferred to the Buyer by
each transferor shall be reduced so that each transferor is entitled to Transfer
the same percentage of its shares included in its Acceptance Notice as each
other transferor. If an Investor elects to exercise such right, such Investor
may, in its sole discretion, determine the composition of the Shares (i.e., the
number of the shares of Series A-2 Preferred or Series B Preferred (as the case
may be) and Common Stock to be included in the Shares) to be Transferred by it
to the Buyer pursuant to the Inclusion Offer. In the event that any Investor
chooses to include any shares of Series A-2 Preferred or Series B Preferred (as
the case may be) in the Shares to be Transferred by it to the Buyer pursuant to
the Inclusion Offer, any such Investor shall, prior to or simultaneously with
such Transfer, convert such shares of Series A-2 Preferred or Series B Preferred
(as the case may be) into shares of Common Stock so that each Investor Transfers
only Common Stock to the Buyer.
(c) Xxxxxx shall have ninety (90) days, commencing on the date of the
Inclusion Notice, in which to Transfer, on behalf of himself and the Investor up
to the number of shares covered by the Inclusion Offer (including the Transferor
Shares) to the Buyer. The terms of such Transfer, including, without
limitation, price and form of consideration, shall be as set forth in the
Inclusion Notice. If at the end of such ninety (90) day period has not
completed the Transfer of the Transferor Shares and the Shares (if any) proposed
to be Transferred, Xxxxxx may not proceed with such Transfer or any other
Transfer without first giving a new Inclusion Notice pursuant to the provisions
of this Section 1.
(d) If Xxxxxx is able to complete the Transfer of the Transferor
Shares and the Shares (if any) proposed to be Transferred within such ninety
(90) day period, at the closing thereof, each Investor shall deliver to the
Buyer a certificate or certificates representing the Shares owned by it to be
Transferred pursuant to the Inclusion Offer, free and clear of all liens and
encumbrances, and the Buyer shall pay to each such Investor the purchase price
for the Shares so Transferred pursuant to this Section 1 and shall furnish such
other evidence of the completion of such Transfer and the terms thereof as may
be reasonably requested by the Investors.
(e) The provisions of this Section 1 shall not apply to any Transfer
or proposed Transfer by Xxxxxx of Xxxxxx Shares which represents twelve and one-
half percent (12.5%) or less of the Xxxxxx Shares held by Xxxxxx on the Closing
Date (as defined in the Stock Purchase Agreements) if such Transfer or proposed
Transfer by Xxxxxx of Xxxxxx
-3-
Shares, together with all other Transfers by Xxxxxx of Xxxxxx Shares on or in
the four years prior to the date of such Transfer, represent twenty-five percent
(25%) or less of the Xxxxxx Shares held by Xxxxxx on the date hereof, with
Xxxxxx Shares held by Xxxxxx on the date hereof to be appropriately adjusted to
reflect any stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization or similar event;
provided, however, that each Transfer of Xxxxxx Shares that takes place within
-------- -------
one year of any other Transfer to the same Person or any Affiliate of such
Person shall be aggregated for purposes of such twelve and one-half percent
(12.5%) threshold. In the event that Xxxxxx desires to exercise an option to
purchase shares of Common Stock of the Company, then Xxxxxx may Transfer Xxxxxx
Shares to the extent necessary to obtain the funds to exercise such option and
such Transfer shall not be included in the calculation of the percentages in
this Section 1(e).
(f) The provisions of this Section 1 shall only apply to Xxxxxx so
long as Xxxxxx is an executive officer of the Company at the time of any
proposed Transfer.
(g) Xxxxxx shall not Transfer any Xxxxxx Shares to any Person in a
public sale except pursuant to the terms and conditions of Section 1(e) hereof.
(h) The provisions of this Section 1 shall not apply to any Xxxxxx
Shares Xxxxxx Transfers to any trust which is established solely for the benefit
of the spouse or any lineal ancestor or descendant (including by adoption and
stepchildren) of Xxxxxx and whose terms are not inconsistent with the terms of
this Agreement.

the Board of Directors or any committee thereof and all written materials and
other information given to the Company's directors and committee members in the
same manner and at the same time such notices, materials and other information
-4-
are given to the directors and committee members. The Company shall reimburse
the Series A-2 Observer for travel and other expenses in connection with such
meetings to the same extent that the Company reimburses its directors and
committee members. If the Board of Directors or any committee thereof proposes
to take any action by written consent in lieu of a meeting, the Company shall
give written notice thereof to the Series A-2 Observer prior to the effective
date of such consent describing the nature and substance of such action.
(b) So long as 50% of the Series A-2 Shares are outstanding, the
Company, Xxxxxx and the Series B Purchasers acknowledge that the parties to this
Agreement desire that the Series A-2 Director be appointed to the Executive
Committee and the Compensation Committee of the Company's Board of Directors and
at each time the Company's Board of Directors appoints committee members, agree
to use their best efforts and take any other action necessary or appropriate to

--------
Purchaser Observer") attend and participate in meetings of the Company's Board
------------------
of Directors, or any committee thereof, and the Company shall permit the Series

Preferred have elected one director to the Company's Board of Directors (or have
waived their right to so elect such director) pursuant to Section 3 of the
Company's Articles Supplementary classifying the Series B Preferred (the "Series
------

--------------------
may be, shall not have the right to have a Series B Purchaser Observer. The
Series B Purchaser Observer shall not have the right to vote on any matter
presented to the Board or any committee thereof. The Company shall give the
Series B Purchaser Observer written notice of each meeting of the Board of

information given to the Company's directors and committee members in the same
manner and at the same time such notices, materials and other information are
