ARTICLE V
GENERAL PROVISIONS
Section 5.1. Waiver by Shareholders. The rights and obligations
contained in this Agreement are in addition to the relevant provisions of the
Governing Documents in force from time to time and shall be construed to comply
with such provisions. To the extent that this Agreement is determined to be in
contravention of the Governing Documents, this Agreement shall constitute a
waiver by each Shareholder, to the fullest extent permissible under applicable
laws, of any right such Shareholder may have pursuant to the Governing Documents
that is inconsistent with this Agreement.
Section 5.2. Demand Registrations. The Shareholders agree that the GS
Parties shall be entitled to exercise one of the five Demand Registrations (as
defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) that the Holders (as defined in
the Registration Rights Agreement) have been granted pursuant to Section 2.1(d)
of the Registration Rights Agreement and upon the written request of the GS
Parties, the THL Parties shall take all Necessary Action to cause the Holders'
Representative (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) to take all
such actions to effect such Demand Registration in accordance with Section 2.1
of the Registration Rights Agreement. In addition, the THL Parties shall cause
the Holders' Representative not to take any action or refrain from taking any
action or make any determination under Article II of the Registration Rights
Agreement with respect to such Demand Registration without the prior written
consent of the GS Parties. In addition, (i) at the request of the GS Parties,
the THL Parties shall take all Necessary Action to cause the Holders'
Representative to request that the Company refile a new automatic shelf
registration statement as contemplated by Section 2.4(t) of the Registration
Rights Agreement, and (ii) if the Holders' Representative is to receive an
opinion contemplated by Section 2.5 of the Registration Rights Agreement, the
THL Parties shall take all Necessary Action to cause the Holders' Representative
to accept only such opinion as is reasonably satisfactory to the GS Parties. The
11
THL Parties shall be entitled to exercise the remaining four (4) Demand
Registrations that the Holders have been granted pursuant to Section 2.1(d) of
the Registration Rights Agreement.
Section 5.3. Certain Actions. To the extent that the THL Parties take
any actions with respect to the Voting Date as set forth in Section 4.1(b)(x) of
the Purchase Agreement or make any determinations with respect to the Voting
Date in accordance with the definition of "Voting Date" as set forth in each of
the Certificate of Designations, Preferences and Rights of the Series B
Preferred Stock, the Certificate of Designations, Preferences and Rights of the
Series B-1 Preferred Stock and the Certificate of Designations, Preferences and
Rights of the Series D Participating Convertible Preferred Stock of the Company,
the THL Parties shall provide prior notice to, and consult in good faith with,
the GS Parties with respect to any such actions or determinations, to the extent
practicable.
Section 5.4. Assignment; Benefit. The rights and obligations hereunder
shall not be assignable without the prior written consent of the other parties
hereto except as provided under Article IV. Any assignment of rights or
obligations in violation of this Section 5.2 shall be null and void. This
Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties
hereto, and their respective successors and permitted assigns.
Section 5.5. Freedom to Pursue Opportunities. The parties expressly
acknowledge and agree that: (i) each Shareholder and Sponsor Director has the
right to, and shall have no duty (contractual or otherwise) to refrain from,
directly or indirectly engaging in the same or similar business activities or
lines of business as the Company or any of its subsidiaries, including those
deemed to be competing with the Company or any of its subsidiaries; and (ii) in
the event that a Shareholder or Sponsor Director acquires knowledge of a
potential transaction or matter that both the Company or its subsidiaries, on
the one hand, and such Shareholder or any other Person, on the other hand, might
reasonably be deemed to have pursued or had the ability or desire to pursue if
granted the opportunity to do so, such Shareholder or Sponsor Director shall
have no duty (contractual or otherwise) to communicate or present such corporate
opportunity to the Company or any of its subsidiaries or other Shareholders, as
the case may be, and, notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the
contrary, shall not be liable to the Company or any of its subsidiaries or any
holder of Equity Securities of the Company for breach of any duty (contractual
or otherwise) by reason of the fact that such Shareholder or Sponsor Director,
directly or indirectly, pursues or acquires such opportunity for itself, directs
such opportunity to another Person, or does not present such opportunity to the
Company or any of its subsidiaries or other Shareholders.
Section 5.6. Termination. The rights and obligations of a Shareholder
under this Agreement shall terminate at such time as such Shareholder no longer
owns any Securities.
Section 5.7. Subsequent Acquisition of Shares. Any Equity Securities
acquired subsequent to the date hereof by a Shareholder shall be subject to the
terms and conditions of this Agreement.
Section 5.8. Severability. In the event that any provision of this
Agreement shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable such provision shall be
construed by limiting it so as to be valid, legal and enforceable to the maximum
12
extent provided by law and the validity, legality and enforceability of the
remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.
Section 5.9. Entire Agreement. This Agreement, the Purchase Agreement
and the Registration Rights Agreement constitutes the entire agreement among the
parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof, and supersedes any
prior agreement or understanding among them with respect to the matters referred
to herein. There are no representations, warranties, promises, inducements,
covenants or undertakings relating to shares of Securities, other than those
expressly set forth or referred to herein, in the Purchase Agreement or in the
Registration Rights Agreement.
Section 5.10. Amendment. This Agreement may not be amended, modified,
supplemented or waived except by written approval of the GSCP Parties, the GSMP
Parties and the THL Parties; provided that any amendment, modification,
supplement or wavier that affects Shareholders (other than the GSCP Parties, the
GSMP Parties and the THL Parties) disproportionately vis-a-vis the GSCP Parties,
the GSMP Parties and the THL Parties and results in a material adverse effect on
such Shareholders (the "Affected Shareholders") will require the written
approval of (i) the GSCP Parties, (ii) the GSMP Parties, (iii) the THL Parties
and (iv) Affected Shareholders holding a majority of the outstanding Securities
then held by all Affected Shareholders. The execution of a counterpart signature
page to this Agreement after the date hereof by any Person that acquires any
Securities shall only require the consent of the GSCP Parties, the GSMP Parties
and the THL Parties and shall not be deemed an amendment to this Agreement so
long as such Person agrees to be treated as a "Shareholder" hereunder.
Section 5.11. Waiver. No waiver of any breach of any of the terms of
this Agreement shall be effective unless such waiver is expressly made in
writing and executed and delivered by the party against whom such waiver is
claimed. Waiver by any party hereto of any breach or default by any other party
of any of the terms of this Agreement shall not operate as a waiver of any other
breach or default, whether similar to or different from the breach or default
waived. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement shall be implied from any
course of dealing between the parties hereto or from any failure by any party to
assert its or his or her rights hereunder on any occasion or series of
occasions.
Section 5.12. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any
number of separate counterparts each of which when so executed shall be deemed
to be an original and all of which together shall constitute one and the same
agreement.
Section 5.13. Notices. Unless otherwise specified herein, all notices,
consents, approvals, reports, designations, requests, waivers, elections and
other communications authorized or required to be given pursuant to this
Agreement shall be in writing and shall be given, made or delivered (and shall
be deemed to have been duly given, made or delivered upon receipt) by personal
hand-delivery, by facsimile transmission, by electronic mail, by mailing the
same in a sealed envelope, registered first-class mail, postage prepaid, return
receipt requested, or by air courier guaranteeing overnight delivery, addressed

Section 5.14. Governing Law. THIS AGREEMENT AND ANY RELATED DISPUTE
SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF
NEW YORK.
Section 5.15. Jurisdiction. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO (A) CONSENTS TO
SUBMIT ITSELF TO THE PERSONAL JURISDICTION OF ANY FEDERAL OR STATE COURT LOCATED
IN THE BOROUGH OF MANHATTAN IN THE CITY OF NEW YORK, NEW YORK IN THE EVENT ANY
DISPUTE ARISES OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT, (B) AGREES THAT IT WILL NOT ATTEMPT TO

14
Section 5.16. Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY
IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL ACTION OR
PROCEEDING IN RELATION TO THIS AGREEMENT AND FOR ANY COUNTERCLAIM THEREIN. Any
Shareholder may file an original counterpart or a copy of this Section 5.14 with
any court as written evidence of the consent of the Shareholders to the waiver
of their rights to trial by jury.
Section 5.17. Specific Performance. It is hereby agreed and
acknowledged that it will be impossible to measure the money damages that would
be suffered if the parties fail to comply with any of the obligations herein
imposed on them by this Agreement and that, in the event of any such failure, an
aggrieved party will be irreparably damaged and will not have an adequate remedy
at law. Any such party shall, therefore, be entitled (in addition to any other
remedy to which such party may be entitled at law or in equity) to seek
injunctive relief, including specific performance, to enforce such obligations,
without the posting of any bond, and if any action should be brought in equity
to enforce any of the provisions of this Agreement, none of the parties hereto
shall raise the defense that there is an adequate remedy at law.
Section 5.18. No Third Party Beneficiaries. Except as otherwise
provided herein, this Agreement is not intended to confer upon any Person,
except for the parties hereto, any rights or remedies hereunder.
