3. REPURCHASE PROVISIONS APPLICABLE TO THE SECURITIES.
(a) CALL. If at any time the Management Investor's employment
with the Company is terminated by either the Company or the Management Investor
for any reason, then the Company or its designee(s) (which designee(s) may be
any person or entity that shall have been approved by the Board pursuant to the
terms of the Stockholders Agreement) shall have the exclusive and irrevocable
option (a "Call"), exercisable in its sole discretion, to repurchase the
Securities (i.e. all of the Shares and the Warrants that have not been cancelled
and terminated pursuant to the Warrant Agreement), in whole or in part, that are
then owned by the Management Investor or any transferee. The Company may
exercise the Call for all or any portion of the Securities subject to such
repurchase hereunder by delivering written notice (a "Repurchase Notice") to the
holder or holders of such Securities within 30 days of the Management Investor's
Termination. The Repurchase Notice will set forth the number of Shares and
Warrants to be acquired from each holder, the aggregate consideration to be paid
for such Shares and Warrants and the time and place for the closing of the
transaction. The Management Investor and any transferee thereof shall be
obligated to resell the Securities as provided in this Section 3.
The number of Shares and Warrants to be repurchased by the
Company shall first be satisfied to the extent possible from the Shares and
Warrants held by the Management Investor. If the number of Shares then held by
the Management Investor is less than the total number of Shares the Company has
elected to purchase, or if the number of Warrants then held by the Management
Investor is less than the total number of Warrants the Company has elected to
purchase, the Company shall purchase the remaining Shares or Warrants, as the
case may be, elected to be purchased from the Management Investor's transferees,
pro rata according to the number of Shares (with respect to Shares to be
purchased) and Warrants (with respect to Warrants to be purchased) held by such
other transferees as of the Date of Termination (determined as nearly as
practicable to the nearest Share or Warrant, as the case may be).
The consummation of the purchase or purchases of such Securities
pursuant to the Company's exercise of its Call shall take place on the date and
in the manner designated by the Company in the Repurchase Notice; provided,
however, that the Company may consummate its purchase of such Securities
pursuant to its exercise of its Call by delivering payment for such Securities
being repurchased by it along with the Repurchase Notice. The Company will pay
for the Securities to be purchased by it pursuant to the exercise of its Call by
delivery of a check in an amount equal to the applicable repurchase price for
the Securities being repurchased. The Company will, in connection with such
repurchase, be entitled to receive customary representations and warranties from
the sellers regarding such sale and to require that all sellers' signatures be
guaranteed.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, all
repurchases of Securities by the Company shall be subject to applicable
restrictions contained in the Delaware General Corporation Law and in the
Company's and its Subsidiaries' debt
and equity financing agreements. If any such restrictions prohibit the
repurchase of Securities hereunder which the Company is otherwise entitled to
make, the Company may make such repurchases as soon as it is permitted to do
so under such restrictions and the time period for exercise of its rights
hereunder shall be tolled during any such period of disability. The Company
shall pay interest on any portion of the Securities being repurchased subject
to the restrictions set forth in this paragraph, with such interest accruing
at an annual rate of 10%, and with such interest being paid on the date that
such restricted portion of the Securities is repurchased.
(b) PUT. If at any time the Management Investor's employment
with the Company is terminated by either the Company or the Management Investor
for any reason, then the Management Investor shall have the exclusive and
irrevocable option (a "Put"), exercisable in the Management Investor's sole
discretion, to sell to the Company, or at the option of the Company, its
designee(s) (which designee(s) may be any person or entity that shall have been
approved by the Board pursuant to the terms of the Stockholders Agreement), the
Securities (i.e. all of the Shares and the Warrants that have not been cancelled
and terminated pursuant to the Warrant Agreement), in whole or in part, that are
then owned by the Management Investor. The Management Investor may elect to
sell all or any portion of the Securities subject to sale hereunder by
delivering written notice (a "Put Notice") to the Company within 60 days of the
Management Investor's Termination. The Put Notice will set forth the number of
Shares and Warrants to be sold to the Company, the aggregate consideration to be
received for such Shares and Warrants and the time and place for the closing of
the transaction. The Company or its designee(s) (which designee(s) may be any
person or entity that shall have been approved by the Board pursuant to the
terms of the Stockholders Agreement) shall be obligated to repurchase the
Securities as provided in this Section 3.
The consummation of the sale of such Securities pursuant to the
Management Investor's exercise of the Put shall take place on the date and in
the manner designated by the Management Investor in the Put Notice. The Company
will, in connection with such sale by the Management Investor, be entitled to
receive customary representations and warranties from the sellers regarding such
sale and to require that all sellers' signatures be guaranteed.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, all
sales of Securities by the Management Investor to the Company shall be subject
to applicable restrictions contained in the Delaware General Corporation Law and
in the Company's and its Subsidiaries' debt and equity financing agreements. If
any such restrictions prohibit the repurchase of Securities hereunder which the
Company is otherwise obligated to make as a result of the Management Investor's
exercise of the Put, the Company shall make such repurchases as soon as it is
permitted to do so under such restrictions and the time period for exercise of
the Management Investors rights hereunder shall be tolled during any such period
of disability. The Management Investor shall be entitled to receive, and the
Company shall pay, interest on any portion of the Securities being sold subject
to the restrictions set forth in
this paragraph, with such interest accruing at na annual rate of 10%, and
with such interest being paid on the date that such restricted portion of the
Securities is repurchased.

exercise by the Company of its Call right described in Section 3(a) above and by
the Management Investor of the Put right described in Section 3(b) above shall
be as follows:
(i) WARRANTS. If the Management Investor's employment with
the Company is terminated for Cause or as a result of the resignation of the
Management Investor (other than a resignation resulting from a diminution in
responsibility), then the aggregate repurchase/sale price for the Warrants shall
be equal to zero dollars ($0.00). If the Management Investor's employment
agreement with the Company is terminated in any other manner, then the aggregate
repurchase/sale price for the Warrants shall be equal to the Warrant Market
Value as of the Date of Termination. Such repurchase/sale price shall be paid
by the Company by check, wire transfer, bank draft or money order (subject to
the obligations of the Management Investor as set forth in Section 3(a)) within
60 days after the Date of Termination.
(ii) SHARES. If the Management Investor's employment with
the Company is terminated for Cause or as a result of the resignation (other
than a resignation resulting from a diminution in responsibility) of the
Management Investor, then the repurchase/sale price per Share shall be equal to
the LOWER of cost or the Fair Market Value as of the Date of Termination, with
such amount to be paid (subject to the obligations of the Management Investor as
set forth in Section 3(a)) within two years after the Date of Termination. If
the Management Investor's employment is terminated as a result of the expiration
of his Employment Agreement or as a result of the death or Disability of the
Management Investor, then the repurchase/sale price per share shall be equal to
the Fair Market Value as of the Date of Termination, with such amount (subject
to the obligations of the Management Investor as set forth in Section 3(a)) to
be paid within 90 days (60 days if termination is caused by the death or
Disability of the Management Investor) after the Date of Termination. If the
Management Investor's employment is terminated in any other manner, then the
repurchase price per share shall be the HIGHER of cost or the Fair Market Value
as of the Date of Termination, with such amount to be paid (subject to the
obligations of the Management Investor as set forth in Section 3(a)) within 60
days after the Date of Termination.
(d) IPO ADJUSTMENT TO CALL OR PUT PRICE FOR TERMINATION WITHOUT
CAUSE. If (i) the Company terminates the Management Investor's employment
without Cause, (ii) the Put or Call is exercised, (iii) within 180 days of the
payment of the repurchase price with respect to the exercise of the Put or Call,
the Company files a registration statement with the Commission in connection
with an Initial Public Offering and (iv) at the consummation of such Initial
Public Offering, the initial public offering price per share with respect to
such Initial Public Offering (the "IPO Price") is higher than the Fair Market
Value as of the Date of Termination, then the IPO Price shall replace the Fair
Market Value in the computation of the repurchase/sale price referred to in
Section 3(c) above. Within 60 days of the consummation of such Initial Public
Offering, subject to the foregoing conditions, the Company shall pay the
Management Investor the difference, if any, between the repurchase/sale amount
as computed using the IPO Price and such repurchase/sale amount as computed
using the Fair Market Value.
(e) BENEFIT OF SALE OF COMMON STOCK OR ASSETS FOR TERMINATION
WITHOUT CAUSE. If (i) the Company terminates the Management Investor's
employment without Cause, (ii) the Put or Call is exercised and (iii) within 180
days of the payment of the repurchase price with respect to the exercise of the
Put or Call, the Company sells more than 80% of the Common Stock of the Company
to a third party (which is not an Affiliate of any Person who, prior to such
sale, "controls" the Company), then the Company shall pay to such selling
Management Investor for each Share sold pursuant to the Put or Call an amount
equal to the amount, if any, by which the price per share of the shares of
Common Stock of the Company sold in such sale exceeds the price per Share for
each Share sold pursuant to the Put or Call. If (i) the Company terminates the
Management Investor's employment without Cause, (ii) the Put or Call is
exercised and (iii) within 180 days of the payment of the repurchase price with
respect to the exercise of the Put or Call, the Company sells all or
substantially all of the assets of the Company to a third party (which is not an
Affiliate of any Person who, prior to such sale, "controls" the Company), then
the Company shall pay to such selling Management Investor for each Share sold
pursuant to the Put or Call an amount equal to the amount, if any, by which the
amount paid per share to holders of shares of Common Stock of the Company
receiving a payment subsequent to such sale of assets (after adjustment for the
Shares of the Management Investor purchased pursuant to the Put or Call) exceeds
the price per Share for each Share sold pursuant to the Put or Call. Any
amounts payable pursuant to this Section 3(e) shall be paid to the Management
Investor, subject to the restrictions referenced in this Agreement, within 60
days after the consummation of the sale of Common Stock or assets, as
applicable.

herewith shall be void.
