If, following election to the Board pursuant to Section 2.2 hereof, any Nominee shall resign, die or be removed or be unable to serve for any reason prior to the expiration of his term as a director of the Company, the Stockholder or Stockholders who nominated such Nominee shall within 30 days of such event, notify the Board in writing of a replacement Nominee, and all Stockholders shall vote their shares of Company Stock (to the extent entitled to vote), at any regular or special meeting called for the purpose of filling positions on the Board, or in any written consent executed in lieu of such a meeting of stockholders, and shall take all actions necessary, to ensure the election to the Board of such replacement Nominee to fill the unexpired term of the Nominee whom such new Nominee is replacing; provided that no person may be selected by a Stockholder or group of Stockholders as a Nominee if such person previously

served as a director of the Company and was previously removed for Cause in accordance with Section 2.6 hereof.

Except for any action taken in accordance with the previous sentence of this Section 2.4 or with respect to the removal of a director for Cause, each Stockholder further agrees to take no action, whether by voting of shares of Common Stock or otherwise, with respect to the removal of any director that was not designated by such Stockholder pursuant to Section 2.2 hereof.

2.5 Calling Special Meetings for the Enforcement of Corporate Governance Provisions. In order to effectuate the provisions of this Article II, each Stockholder hereby agrees that when any action or vote is required to be taken by such Stockholder pursuant to this Agreement, such Stockholder shall use its best efforts to call, or cause the appropriate officers and directors of the Company to call, a special or annual meeting of stockholders of the Company, as the case may be, or execute or cause to be executed a consent in writing in lieu of any such meetings to effectuate such stockholder action.

2.6 Removal for Cause. Each Stockholder hereby agrees that, subject to the requirements of applicable law

2.8 Voting Agreement. Each Stockholder who is a member of the Windward Group, subject to such Stockholder’s receiving full disclosure of all material facts relating thereto, shall vote its shares of Company Stock (to the extent then entitled to vote) at any regular or special meeting called for the purposes of approving the arrangements, plans or bonuses contemplated by the Stock Purchase Agreement in effect on the date hereof or to be paid hereafter to the extent approval is contemplated by (or in accordance with) Section 280G(b)(5)(B) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), or in any written consent executed in lieu of any such

meeting of Stockholders, and shall take all actions necessary, to ensure the approval of such proposal.

2.9 Stockholder Groups. Existing Management Stockholders are listed in the Schedule of Management Stockholders attached hereto. “Windward Stockholders” shall mean members of the Windward Group.

(b) After the Restricted Period, no Company Stock now or hereafter owned by any Stockholder or any interest therein may be Transferred, except (i) pursuant to any Transfer which complies with the provisions of Articles III or IV hereof (provided that during the period in which any Management Stockholder and its Permitted Transferees are subject to the “put” and “call” provisions of Article VII hereof (including, without

limitation, any period following any termination of the Management Stockholder’s employment with the Company and its subsidiaries up until the expiration of the Company’s put and call periods set forth in Sections 7.1 and 7.3 hereof), no such Management Stockholder and its Permitted Transferees shall be permitted to Transfer any shares of Company Stock pursuant to either the provisions of Article III hereof or the “tag-along” provisions of Article IV hereof, except for Transfers to the Permitted Transferees of such Management Stockholder), (ii) pursuant to any Registration contemplated in connection with the provisions of Article IX hereof (provided that, prior to an IPO Event, no Management Stockholder and its Permitted Transferees shall be permitted to Transfer any shares of Company Stock pursuant to the provisions of Article IX hereof), (iii) for the sale by the Windward Group to a Third Party of all (subject to any percentage reduction arising as a result of the exercise of any “tag-along” rights pursuant to Article IV hereof) of its equity interests in the Company, (iv) for any sale of shares in connection with the exercise by the Windward Group of its rights under Sections 5.1 through 5.6 hereof, (v) upon the exercise by the Company (or its designee) of any “call” rights or any Management Stockholder of its “put” rights provided for in Article VII hereof or (vi) Transfers to or from a Permitted Transferee.

No Transfer of Company Stock in violation of this Agreement shall be made or recorded on the books of the Company and any such Transfer shall be void and of no effect.

3.2 Rights of First Refusal Generally.

(a) Subject to the restrictions of Section 3.1 hereof and the limitations of Section 3.7 hereof, and prior to the application of any of the provisions of Article IV hereof, if, at any time during the term of this Agreement, any Stockholder (the “Offering Stockholder”) receives a bona fide offer which such Stockholder wishes to accept (a “Transfer Offer”) from any Third Party (the “Offeror”) to purchase Company Stock (the

“Transfer Stock”) then owned by such Stockholder, the Offering Stockholder shall cause the Transfer Offer to be reduced to writing and shall provide a written notice (the “Right of First Refusal Notice”) of such Transfer Offer to the Company, and the Company shall provide written notice of such Transfer Offer to each of the other Stockholders (the “Stockholder Offerees” and, together with the Company, the “Transfer Offerees”) in the manner set forth in Section 14.7 hereof. The Right of First Refusal Notice shall also contain an irrevocable offer to sell the Transfer Stock to the Transfer Offerees (in the manner set forth below) at the same price and upon substantially the same terms and conditions as the terms and conditions contained in the Transfer Offer and shall be accompanied by a true and correct copy of the Transfer Offer (which shall identify the Offeror, the Transfer Stock, the price contained in the Transfer Offer and all the other terms and conditions of the Transfer Offer); provided that (x) the Right of First Refusal Notice may be combined with a Tag-Along Notice, (y) any such combined Tag-Along Notice/Right of First Refusal Notice may state that in the event that the offer(s) to sell the Transfer Stock to the Transfer Offerees are not accepted in full in accordance with this Section 3.2, then such notice shall constitute an offer with respect to Tag-Along Stock in accordance with Section 4.1 hereof and (z) references herein to a Right of First Refusal Notice shall be deemed to include any such combined Tag-Along Notice/Right of First Refusal Notice.

(b) The Transfer Offerees shall have the right and option, within 30 days after the date the Right of First Refusal Notice is received by such Transfer Offerees, to accept irrevocably such offer (subject to the priorities and pro rata adjustments set forth in Sections 3.3 and 3.4 below), in the aggregate, as to all, but not less than all (unless otherwise consented to by the relevant Offering Stockholders and Offerors), shares of Transfer Stock. Each Transfer Offeree which desires to exercise such option shall provide the Offering Stockholder with written notice (specifying the number of shares of the Transfer Stock as to which each Transfer Offeree is accepting the offer) within such 30-day period. Unless the relevant Offering Stockholders and Offerors shall have otherwise consented to the purchase of less than all of the shares of Transfer Stock, no Transfer Offeree shall have the right to acquire such shares

of Transfer Stock unless all such shares are being acquired by Transfer Offerees pursuant to the provisions of this Article III.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Article III, there shall be no liability on the part of the Offering Stockholder to any Stockholder in the event that the sale of Transfer Stock contemplated pursuant to this Article III is not consummated for any reason whatsoever. Whether a sale of Transfer Stock contemplated pursuant to this Article III is effected by the Offering Stockholder is in the sole and absolute discretion of the Offering Stockholder.

3.3 Apportionment of Shares Among Stockholders in the Event of Over-Subscription.

(a) If the aggregate number of shares of Transfer Stock as to which notices of acceptance are provided by all Transfer Offerees exceeds the number of shares of Transfer Stock, the right to purchase the Transfer Stock shall be allocated (i) first, to the Stockholder Offerees and (ii) second, to the Company with respect to any shares of Transfer Stock as to which notices of acceptance have not been provided by the Stockholder Offerees.

(b) Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraph (a) above, if the aggregate number of shares of Transfer Stock as to which notices of acceptance are provided by the Stockholder Offerees exceeds the number of shares of Transfer Stock, then (i) each Stockholder Offeree which provided a notice of acceptance shall first be allocated the lesser of (A) the number of shares of Transfer Stock which such Stockholder Offeree agreed to purchase and (B) the number of shares of Transfer Stock as is equal to the full number of shares of Transfer Stock offered in the Right of First Refusal Notice multiplied by a fraction, (1) the numerator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock held or deemed to be held by such Stockholder Offeree as of the date of the Right of First Refusal Notice (for the purpose of such calculation, a Stockholder Offeree shall be deemed to hold the number of shares of Common Stock which would be issuable, as of the date of the Right of First Refusal Notice, to such Stockholder Offeree upon conversion, exercise or exchange of all securities then held by such

Stockholder Offeree that are then convertible, exercisable or exchangeable (but excluding any unvested options) into or for (whether directly or indirectly) shares of Common Stock) and (2) the denominator of which shall be the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock (calculated as aforesaid) held or deemed to be held on such date by all Stockholder Offerees who accepted the offer contained in the Right of First Refusal Notice, and (ii) the balance of the shares of Transfer Stock (if any) offered shall be reallocated among the Stockholder Offerees accepting the offer contained in the Right of First Refusal Notice in the same proportion as set forth in the preceding clause (i)(B) (provided that no Stockholder Offeree shall be obligated to purchase more than the number of shares of Transfer Stock which such Stockholder Offeree initially agreed to purchase) in continuous reallocations until all such remaining shares have been reallocated fully among such Stockholder Offerees; provided that all allocations referred to herein shall be determined in good faith by the Company in accordance with the provisions of this Section 3.3 and any share amounts so determined shall be rounded to avoid fractional shares.

3.4 Apportionment of Shares Among Stockholders in the Event of Failure to Purchase. If any shares of Transfer Stock are not purchased by a Stockholder Offeree who or which previously delivered a written notice of acceptance relating thereto (collectively, the “Transfer Default Stock”), such shares of Transfer Default Stock may be purchased by the other Stockholder Offerees purchasing Transfer Stock (the “Default Offerees”), allocated among such Default Offerees in proportion to the number of shares of Transfer Stock otherwise being purchased by those of such Default Offerees who agree to purchase Transfer Default Stock; provided that, if the Default Offerees do not purchase all the Transfer Default Stock, the Company may purchase the remaining Transfer Default Stock; provided further that the provisions of this Section 3.4 shall not excuse the failure by any such Stockholder Offeree to purchase the shares of Transfer Default Stock with respect to which it previously delivered a written notice of acceptance relating thereto; provided further that all allocations referred to herein shall be determined in good faith by the Company in accordance with the provisions of this Section 3.4 and any share amounts so determined shall be rounded to avoid

fractional shares. The provisions of the last sentence of Section 3.2(b) shall apply if the Default Offerees and the Company do not in the aggregate purchase all of the Transfer Default Stock.

3.5 Transfer Mechanics. The closing of the purchase of the Transfer Stock by the Transfer Offerees who have exercised the option pursuant to Section 3.2 hereof shall take place at the principal executive offices of the Company on the 45th Business Day after the expiration of the 30-day period after the giving of the Right of First Refusal Notice (or such other date as may be mutually agreed to by the parties to such transaction). At such closing, each Transfer Offeree shall deliver to the Offering Stockholder the appropriate per share consideration (which, in the event that the Transfer Offer set forth in the Right of First Refusal Notice contemplated the payment by the Offeror of non-cash consideration, shall be paid in cash in an amount equal to the fair market value of such non-cash consideration, as determined in accordance with the provisions of the last sentence of this Section 3.5) pursuant to a bank, cashier’s or certified check or by wire transfer of immediately available funds (unless otherwise specified in the Right of First Refusal Notice provided to the Transfer Offerees), against delivery of certificates representing the Transfer Stock so purchased Duly Endorsed. For purposes of this Section 3.5, the value of non-cash consideration shall be the fair market value of the aggregate consideration (whether such consideration is in the form of cash, securities, other assets or the assumption of liabilities, or any combination thereof) to be paid (without assigning any value to the non-economic terms of the particular transaction (e.g., representations, warranties, covenants, conditions, indemnification, etc. or the tax treatment of the particular transaction), as determined by the Windward Agent in its reasonable discretion. Any transfer (other than to a Third Party) pursuant to this Article III shall be made without any representations, warranties, covenants or indemnities; except, that, each transferor shall be deemed to have represented that (i) the transfer has been duly authorized by it, (ii) that it has the capacity, power and authority to transfer such shares and (iii) that the acquiror shall obtain good title to such shares, free and clear of any defects, encumbrances and adverse interests (other than as provided for in this Agreement).

3.6 Transfers to Third Parties after Stockholders Decline Rights of First Refusal. If at the end of the 30-day period following the giving of the Right of First Refusal Notice, the Transfer Offerees (including, without limitation, the Company) shall not have collectively accepted the offer contained in such notice as to all shares of Transfer Stock covered thereby (unless otherwise consented to by the relevant Offering Stockholders and Offerors), the Offering Stockholder shall have 60 days in which to sell the Transfer Stock to the Offeror, at a price not less than that contained in the Right of First Refusal Notice and on terms and conditions not more favorable to the Offeror than were contained in the Right of First Refusal Notice. No sale may be made to any Offeror unless such Offeror agrees in writing to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Agreement pursuant to the provisions of Article X hereof. Promptly after any sale pursuant to this Section 3.6, the Offering Stockholder shall notify the Company of the consummation thereof and shall furnish such evidence of the completion (including time of completion) of such sale and of the terms and conditions thereof as the Company may reasonably request. If, at the end of such 60 day period, the Offering Stockholder has not completed the sale of the Transfer Stock, such Stockholder shall no longer be permitted to sell such shares pursuant to this Section 3.6 without again fully complying with the provisions of this Article III and all the restrictions on Transfer contained in this Agreement shall again be in effect with respect to all such person’s shares of Company Stock, including the Transfer Stock.

3.7 Exceptions to Rights of First Refusal. The provisions of this Article III shall not be applicable to any Transfer of Company Stock (a) from any Stockholder to any Permitted Transferee, or from any Permitted Transferee of such Stockholder to such Stockholder, provided that in any Transfer to a Permitted Transferee such Permitted Transferee (other than the Company) must agree in writing to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Agreement pursuant to the provisions of Article X hereof, (b) made pursuant to a public offering of Company Stock in connection with the exercise by any Stockholder of its rights pursuant to Article IX hereof or in connection with the exercise by the Windward Agent of its rights pursuant to Section 5.6 hereof, (c) made in connection with the exercise by the Windward Group of a Compelled

Sale Right, (d) by any Tag-Along Offeree pursuant to Article IV hereof (provided that the rights of Tag-Along Offerees pursuant to Article IV hereof shall only apply after application of the provisions of this Article III), or (e) between the Company (or its designee), on the one hand, and any Management Stockholder or employee of the Company and its subsidiaries, on the other, pursuant to Articles VII or X hereof.

3.8 Exceptions for Employee Stockholders. With respect to any Stockholder who is an employee or a director of the Company, the foregoing provisions may be modified, amended or made inapplicable to any equity interests in the Company held by such person in such person’s applicable employment agreement, provided that the Board of Directors approves such employment agreement.

4.4 Transfers to Third Parties after Stockholders Decline Tag-Along Rights. If within 10 Business Days after the receipt of the Tag-Along Notice (or 30 days after its receipt of a combined Tag-Along Notice/Right of First Refusal Notice), any Tag-Along Offeree has not accepted the offer contained in the Tag-Along Notice, such Tag-Along Offeree will be deemed to have waived any and all rights with respect to the sale or other disposition of Tag-Along Stock described in the Tag-Along Notice and the Transferor shall have 60 days in which to sell or otherwise dispose of the shares of Company Stock described in the Third Party’s offer, on terms and conditions not more favorable to the Transferor than were set forth in the Tag-Along Notice.

ARTICLE V

RIGHTS TO COMPEL SALE OR IPO EVENT

5.1 Rights to Compel Sale Generally. The Windward Group shall have the right (the “Compelled Sale Right”) to cause the sale of all or substantially all of the Company to a Third Party (the “Third Party Purchaser”), whether pursuant to a sale of Company Stock, merger, consolidation, stock swap, business combination, sale of assets or similar transaction (any such sale, the “Compelled Sale”); provided that the Windward Group gets treated no more favorably as to the terms and conditions of the Compelled Sale than the other Stockholders (other than with respect to any transaction fee arrangements entered into by the Company and Windward (or any of its Affiliates) in connection with a Compelled Sale which such transaction fee arrangements, in the case of any Compelled Sale, shall be subject to the approval of a majority of the directors of the Company who are not Windward Nominees). If the Windward Group proposes to exercise its Compelled Sale Right, the Windward Agent shall send written notice of the exercise of its Compelled Sale Right to each of the remaining Stockholders, setting forth the consideration to be paid by the Third Party Purchaser and the other terms and conditions of such transaction (such notice, the “Compelled Sale Notice”).

5.2 Compelled Sale Pursuant to a Sale of Company Stock

(a) In the event that the Windward Group determines to exercise its Compelled Sale Right pursuant to a sale of Company Stock to the Third Party Purchaser, then the Windward Agent may, at its option, require the remaining Stockholders and their respective Permitted Transferees to sell all Company Stock (along with all rights to acquire Company Stock and similar interests) held by them to the Third Party Purchaser for the same consideration per share (appropriately adjusted in the case of securities such as options and warrants) and otherwise on the same terms and conditions upon which the Windward Group sells its shares of Company Stock (along with all rights to acquire Company Stock and similar interests). Within 10 days following the date on which the Windward Agent delivers the Compelled Sale Notice, each of the remaining Stockholders shall deliver to a representative of the Windward Agent designated in the Compelled Sale Notice, certificates representing all shares of Company Stock (along with all rights to acquire Company Stock and similar interests) held by such Stockholder, Duly Endorsed, together with all other documents required to be executed in connection with such transaction; provided that in the event that the Windward Group does not anticipate consummating such Compelled Sale within 30 days after the date of delivery of the Compelled Sale Notice, the Windward Group shall subsequently notify the remaining Stockholders of the anticipated date of consummation of such Compelled Sale and such remaining Stockholders shall thereupon deliver to such designated representative of the Windward Agent, within 5 days prior to such anticipated date of consummation, such certificates and documents.

(b) In the event that a remaining Stockholder and its Permitted Transferees should fail to deliver such certificates and documents to the Windward Agent, then (i) the Company shall cause the books and records of the Company to show that such shares are bound by the provisions of this Article V and that such shares may be transferred only to the Third Party Purchaser and (ii) such remaining Stockholder and each of its Permitted Transferees (A) shall not be entitled to the consideration it is to receive under this Section 5.2 until it cures such failure (provided that after curing such

failure it shall be so entitled to such consideration without interest), (B) shall for all purposes be deemed no longer to be a stockholder of the Company and have no voting rights with respect to such shares of Company Stock, (C) shall not be entitled to any dividends or other distributions with respect to the shares of Company Stock held by it, (D) shall have no other rights or privileges granted to stockholders under this or any other agreement and (E) in the event of liquidation of the Company, shall have rights subordinate to the rights of any equity holder with respect to any consideration it would have received if it had complied with this Section 5.2, if any, until it cures such failure (provided, that after curing such failure it shall be so entitled to such consideration without interest). If any party so fails to deliver such certificates and documents as so required it shall execute, acknowledge and deliver all such further agreements and take all such further actions as may be reasonably necessary or desirable to give effect to the provisions of this Section 5.2.

(c) If, within one year after the Windward Agent gives such notice, the Windward Group has not completed the sale of all the shares of Company Stock (along with all rights to acquire Company Stock and similar interests) of the Stockholders in accordance herewith, the Windward Agent shall return to each of the remaining Stockholders all certificates representing shares of Company Stock that such Stockholder delivered for sale pursuant hereto and that were not purchased pursuant to this Article V.

(d) Stockholders who deliver to the Windward Agent certificates representing shares of Company Stock in accordance with this Section 5.2 or otherwise pursuant to a Compelled Sale shall retain full voting control (to the extent such shares are entitled to vote) and any other rights and incidents of ownership associated with such Stockholder’s ownership of such shares until the applicable Compelled Sale has been completed or such shares have been returned in accordance with the provisions of this Article V and such shares will be held by the Windward Agent for the benefit of such Stockholder until such time.

5.3 Compelled Sale Other Than Pursuant to a Sale of Company Stock. In the event that the Windward

Group determines to exercise its Compelled Sale Right pursuant to a merger, consolidation, stock swap, business combination, sale of assets or similar transaction, then the Windward Agent may, at its option, require the remaining Stockholders and their respective Permitted Transferees to vote in favor of such transaction. In particular, in the event of any such proposed transaction, upon any request by the Windward Agent, each of the Stockholders shall use its respective best efforts (i) to call, or cause the appropriate officers and directors of the Company to call, a special meeting of stockholders of the Company to consider approval of such proposed transaction, and (ii) vote in favor of such proposed transaction all of the shares of Company Stock owned or held of record by such Stockholder (to the extent entitled to vote), at each regular or special meeting of the stockholders of the Company called for the purpose of voting on such matter, or in any written consent executed in lieu of such a meeting of stockholders, and shall take all actions reasonably necessary, to ensure that all necessary stockholder approvals for such transaction are obtained.

5.4 Cooperation in Connection with Compelled Sale. Each Stockholder shall cooperate with the Windward Agent and the other members of the Windward Group in the event that the Windward Group determines to exercise its Compelled Sale Right pursuant to this Article V and shall take all necessary and appropriate actions in connection with any such Compelled Sale as may be reasonably requested by the Windward Agent (including, without limitation, entering into such agreements and instruments in connection with any such Compelled Sale as may be requested by the Windward Agent (subject to the provisions of the next sentence)). Without limitation to the foregoing provisions, each Stockholder hereby covenants and agrees that, at the request of the Windward Agent, it will promptly enter into any agreements and instruments (which may include such representations, warranties, covenants and indemnities as may be negotiated by the Windward Agent) with a Third Party Purchaser relating to any Compelled Sale that is negotiated by the Windward Agent; provided, however, that, unless the Stockholders shall otherwise agree, all such representations, warranties and indemnities shall be several and not joint as among the Stockholders.

5.5 Notice of Consummation of Compelled Sale. Promptly (but in no event later than 2 Business Days) after the consummation of any sale transaction contemplated pursuant to Section 5.1 hereof, the Windward Agent shall give notice thereof to the remaining Stockholders, shall remit to each of the remaining Stockholders the total transaction proceeds to which such Stockholders are entitled pursuant thereto, and shall furnish such other evidence of the completion and time of completion of such sale or other disposition and the terms and conditions thereof as may be reasonably requested by such Stockholders.

5.6 Rights to Compel IPO Event. (a) The Windward Agent may, on behalf of the Windward Group, at any time, in its sole discretion, cause the Company to effect an IPO Event (which may include, at the Windward Agent’s option, the secondary sale of shares of Company Stock then held by the Windward Group); provided that the Windward Group’s election to include any of its shares of Company Stock in such public offering shall entitle the Management Stockholders to participate in accordance with (and subject to the restrictions applicable to) the “piggyback” registration rights provisions of Article 9 hereof.

(b) In the event that the Windward Agent, on behalf of the Windward Group, elects to exercise its rights pursuant to Section 5.6(a) above, the Windward Agent shall have the right to designate all of the material terms of such IPO Event (e.g., the underwriters, if any, to be retained by the Company in connection therewith, the securities exchanges or national market systems, if any, where the Company’s equity would be listed for trading, the price, timing and other terms of the proposed public offering, etc.). In addition, in the event that the Windward Agent elects to exercise the rights of the Windward Group contemplated pursuant to Section 5.6(a) above, then the Windward Agent may, at its option, require the remaining Stockholders and their respective Permitted Transferees to vote in favor of any amendment(s) to the Certificate and By-Laws which are reasonably requested by any underwriter retained in connection with such IPO Event. In particular, in the event of any such proposed IPO Event, upon any request by the Windward Agent, each of the Stockholders shall use

its respective best efforts (i) to call, or cause the appropriate officers and directors of the Company to call, a special meeting of stockholders of the Company to consider approval of such proposed amendment(s), and (ii) vote in favor of such proposed amendment(s) all of the shares of Company Stock owned or held of record by such Stockholder (to the extent entitled to vote), at each regular or special meeting of the stockholders of the Company called for the purpose of voting on such matter, or in any written consent executed in lieu of such a meeting of stockholders, and shall take all actions reasonably necessary, to ensure that all necessary stockholder approvals for such amendment(s) and such IPO Event are obtained.

ARTICLE VI

PREEMPTIVE RIGHTS

6.1 Preemptive Rights.

(a) The Company hereby grants to each Stockholder who is a member of the Windward Group or a Management Stockholder (and their respective Permitted Transferees) (each, a “Preempting Stockholder”) a right of first refusal to purchase, with respect to the issuance by the Company of new or additional equity securities for cash, that portion of such new or additional equity securities as may be necessary in order to permit such Stockholder to maintain their relative ownership of the aggregate amount of the Company’s total common equity (calculated on a Fully-Diluted Basis). Such right of first refusal would be offered to each Preempting Stockholder (such offer, the “Preemptive Rights Offer”) pursuant to a written notice from the Company offering each Preempting Stockholder such securities on the same terms and conditions as offered to the other offeree(s) (such written notice, the “Preemptive Rights Notice”). Each Preempting Stockholder would have 15 days from the date of the Company’s delivery of the Preemptive Rights Notice to notify the Company in writing of its binding acceptance of such Preemptive Rights Offer with respect to all (but not less than all) equity securities which are offered to such Preempting Stockholder pursuant to such Preemptive Rights Offer.

(b) If a Preempting Stockholder accepts the Preemptive Rights Offer in accordance with the provisions of the preceding sentence, the Company and any such accepting party shall have 30 days in which to consummate such binding agreement. In the event that a Preempting Stockholder does not accept the Preemptive Rights Offer within such 15-day period in accordance with the provisions of the preceding sentence or fails to consummate any such purchase within such 30-day period, the Company would have the right, subject to the provisions of Section 12.1(f) but not the obligation to issue such securities on terms and conditions in the aggregate no more favorable to the other offeree(s) than those set forth in the Preemptive Rights Notice, pursuant to a definitive agreement to be entered into no later than 120 days after such date.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, no rights of first refusal pursuant to Section 6.1(a) above would apply in the event of (i) any issuances or grants of equity securities to the officers, directors or employees of the Company or any of its subsidiaries, (ii) the exercise of any employee or director options or the exercise or conversion of any options, warrants or convertible securities in existence as of the date of the Closing or issued pursuant to or in connection with the Stock Purchase Agreement, or the issuance of any securities to the employees or directors of the Company or its subsidiaries pursuant to any restricted stock or other incentive plan of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or the issuance upon the conversion or exercise of convertible securities or warrants the issuance of which was subject to this Article VI, (iii) the issuance of equity securities, either directly or indirectly, in connection with the acquisition, strategic business combination or investment by the Company in any party which is not prior to such transaction an Affiliate of either the Company or any of the Stockholders (whether by merger, consolidation, stock swap, sale of assets or securities, or otherwise), (iv) the issuance of securities (including any convertible securities or options and the conversion or exercise thereof) to any third party which is at such time a creditor of the Company, in connection with the refinancing or restructuring of the indebtedness owed to such third party, (v) an issuance of securities by the Company in connection with an IPO Event or any other Registration,

(vi) an issuance of securities by the Company in connection with any Compelled Sale Right, (vii) the distribution by the Company of its securities to all of its stockholders on a pro rata basis or (viii) any issuance of securities by the Company pursuant to the Stock Purchase Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, for as long as the Subordinated Notes remain outstanding, the Company shall not issue any shares of Common Stock to any of its directors; provided, however, that the Company may (i) issue shares upon the excercise of options granted to directors in accordance with the terms of the Company Stock Option Plan and (ii) issue up to 2,000 shares of Common Stock to Independent Nominees and an additional 500 shares of Common Stock to a Windward/Park Nominee who is not an employee of MetLife, in each case at a purchase price per share at least equal to the price per share paid by the Windward Entities pursuant to the Stock Purchase Agreement.

For purposes of this Section 7.1(c) and Section 7.1(d), the termination of the employment of a Management Stockholder who is a party to an employment or consulting contract or agreement with the Company or its subsidiaries by reason of Voluntary Termination (other than Voluntary Termination for Good Reason) shall be deemed to be a termination for Cause and such Stockholder shall be subject to the provisions of Section 7.1(d).

(d) Termination for Cause.

Stockholder and his or her Permitted Transferees shall be required to sell on one occasion to the Company (or its designee), all shares of Company Stock then held by such person(s) at a price equal to the lower of cost, Book Value or 75% of the Fair Market Value.

(f) For purposes of this Article VII only, Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxx shall be deemed not to be a Management Shareholder.

7.2 Obligation to Sell Several. In the event that any Management Stockholder has transferred any

shares of Company Stock to any Permitted Transferees, the failure of any one member of such group to perform its obligations hereunder shall not excuse or affect the obligations of any other member thereof, and the closing of the purchases from such other members by the Company (or its designee) shall not excuse, or constitute a waiver of the Company’s rights against, the defaulting member(s).

7.3 Deferral of Purchases.

(a) Events of Deferral. The Company (and its designee) shall not be obligated to purchase any shares of Company Stock, at any time pursuant to this Article VII, regardless of whether it has in the case of Section 7.1 hereof delivered a notice of its election to purchase any such shares, (x) to the extent that the purchase of such shares would give rise to or result in a Violation or (y) if immediately prior to the time of purchase there exists, or if immediately after giving effect to such purchase there would exist, a Financing Default.

(b) Extension of Put and Call Periods. The period during which the Company (or its designee) shall have the right or obligation to purchase shares of Company Stock pursuant to the exercise of any “put” rights pursuant to Section 7.1 (a “Put Right”) or pursuant to the exercise of any right to purchase shares of Company Stock pursuant Section 7.1 hereof (a “Call Right”), shall, except with respect to the Call Right contemplated by Section 7.1, be extended in the event the Board in good faith determines that any Violation or Financing Default exists or would result as a result of any purchase of Company Stock pursuant to this Article VII until 90 days (in the event of the exercise of any Put Rights), or 120 days (in the event of the exercise of any Call Rights), as the case may be, after the Board determines that such is no longer the case; provided that, in order to exercise such rights, (i) the Management Stockholder (or the personal representatives of such deceased Management Stockholder, as the case may be) exercising any Put Rights must have given notice of its intention to exercise its Put Rights within 90 days from the date the Management Stockholder’s termination of employment, and (ii) the Company (or its designee) must have given notice of its intention to exercise its Call Rights within 120

covenant to the extent that (and for as long as) any payment of any Priority Notes would give rise to or result in a Violation. In the event that the Company (or its designee) intends to deliver a Management Repurchase Note upon the exercise of any Put Right or any Call Right, the Company (or its designee) shall notify the intended recipient thereof prior to the delivery thereof. The Company (or its designee) shall have the rights set forth in subsections (a) and (b) of the first sentence of this Section 7.4 whether or not any Permitted Transferee(s) of the Management Stockholder owing amounts to the Company or its subsidiaries, if applicable, is itself an obligor of the Company or its subsidiaries.

7.5 Miscellaneous. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, (a) the Company shall be permitted to reach any agreement with any Management Stockholder (or his estate, as the case may be) concerning the purchase of such Management Stockholder’s shares of Company Stock, and (b) the Company, in its sole discretion, shall have the right, but not the obligation, to assign any of its rights, and delegate any of its obligations, to purchase any shares of Common Stock of any Management Stockholder (or his estate, as the case may be) pursuant to Article VII hereof to any employee stock ownership plan or similar compensation or benefit plan that the Company may have, or to any subsidiary or employee of the Company (or any combination of the foregoing).

7.6 Proxy and Escrow of Company Stock.

(a) In the event that the Company (or its designee) does not exercise its rights under Section 7.1 to purchase all shares of Company Stock held by a Management Stockholder, the Company may, at its option, require such Management Stockholder to execute and deliver to the Secretary irrevocable proxies (which proxies shall be deemed to be coupled with an interest and which shall terminate upon an IPO Event) in such form and as the Company may from time to time prescribe, in favor of such person as the Board may from time to time prescribe, entitling such person to vote such shares, if at all, on matters in direct proportion to the affirmative and negative votes and abstentions of all other voting securities then outstanding.

(b) Each Management Stockholder agrees that he or she will, upon termination of such Management Stockholder’s employment for any reason, or prior to termination at the request of the Company, deliver to the Secretary, to be held by the Secretary for the benefit of such Management Stockholder, the certificates representing all shares of Company Stock of such Management Stockholder.

7.7 Exceptions for Employee Stockholders. With respect to any Stockholder who is an employee or a director of the Company, the foregoing provisions may be modified, amended or made inapplicable to any equity interests in the Company held by such person in such person’s applicable employment agreement, provided that the Board of Directors approves such employment agreement.

ARTICLE IX

REGISTRATION RIGHTS

9.1 Demand Registration Rights.

(a) Upon written notice from a Stockholder entitled to request Registration pursuant to Section 9.1(c) below (the “Requesting Stockholder”), the Company shall use its best efforts to effect at the earliest possible date and maintain the registration under the Securities Act of offers and sales of Common Stock by the Requesting Stockholder (and no offers and sales of any other securities by any other person shall be registered with such Common Stock of the Requesting Stockholder without the Requesting Stockholder’s prior consent), its Permitted Transferees and any underwriter with respect to such stock, in accordance with the intended method or methods of disposition specified by the Requesting Stockholder (including, but not limited to, an offering on a delayed or continuous basis pursuant to Rule 415 (or any successor rule) promulgated under the Securities Act); provided that if, after a Registration request pursuant to this Section 9.1 has been made, the outside legal counsel of the Company has determined in good faith that the filing of a Registration request would require the disclosure of material information which the Company has a bona fide business purpose for preserving as confidential, the Company shall not be obligated to effect a Registration pursuant to this Section 9.1 until the

earlier of (A) the date upon which such material information is disclosed to the public or ceases to be material, or (B) 45 days after such outside legal counsel of the Company first makes such good faith determination; provided further that no Requesting Stockholder may request any such Registration pursuant to this Section 9.1 (x) until at least six (6) months after the anniversary of the closing of the last Registration and sale of Company securities and (y) unless the Registrable Securities sought to be registered has a Fair Market Value of at least $2,500,000; provided, however, that the Requesting Stockholder shall not have the right to utilize the services of an underwriter unless the Fair Market Value of the Company Stock to be offered exceeds $20,000,000. The Requesting Stockholder(s) requesting a Registration under this Section 9.1 may, at any time prior to the effective date of the registration statement relating to such Registration, revoke such request by providing written notice thereof to the Company.

(b) In connection with any Registration requested pursuant to this Section 9.1, (i) the Requesting Stockholder shall have the right, subject to the penultimate sentence of Section 9.1(a), to designate the managing underwriter(s) and (ii) the Company shall take such other actions, including, without limitation, listing such shares for trading on any securities exchange or national market system and registering or qualifying such shares under state securities laws, as may be reasonably requested by the Requesting Stockholder. If the Requesting Stockholder consents to the inclusion of offers and sales of any other securities in a Registration of Common Stock by the Requesting Stockholder pursuant to this Section 9.1 and the underwriter(s) retained in connection with such Registration advise the Company in writing that such offering would be materially and adversely affected by the inclusion of such securities, the Requesting Stockholder may in its sole discretion exclude all or some of such securities from such offering.

(i) the Windward Agent, on behalf of the Windward Group, will have the right to request Registration of Company Stock of the Windward Group as a Requesting Stockholder pursuant to this Section 9.1 an aggregate of three (3) times; provided that if the Windward Group had elected, pursuant to Section 5.6 hereof, to cause the

Company to effect the IPO Event, such election will not be a request for Registration of Company Common Stock for purposes of this Section 9.1(c) hereof; and

(ii) Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxx, on behalf of the Management Stockholders upon the request of holders of a majority of the shares of Common Stock held by Management Stockholders at such time, will have the right to request Registration of Company Stock of the Management Stockholders pursuant to this Section 9.1 an aggregate of two (2) times; provided, that, prior to such time the Windward Group shall have effected one Registration pursuant to Section 9.1(c)(i); provided, further, that in the event Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxx, on behalf of the Management Stockholders, requests Registration pursuant to this Section 9.1(c)(ii), the Company shall notify the Windward Agent in writing of such request and the Windward Agent may elect, in its sole discretion (the “Windward Election”), within 15 days of receipt of such written notice, to request Registration pursuant to Section 9.1(c)(i) in which case the Windward Group shall be treated as a Requesting Stockholder for purposes of such Registration and the Management Shareholders shall not be treated as Requesting Stockholders for purposes of such Registration (and such Registration request shall not be counted with respect to the Management Shareholders for purposes of the preceding sentence), however the Windward Agent shall only be allowed to make one Windward Election and after such election may no longer make a Windward Election unless the requested Registration pursuant to the Windward Election is not deemed effective (as set forth below) in which case such election shall not be deemed to be the Windward Election;

provided further that any Registration requested by any Requesting Stockholder pursuant to this Section 9.1 shall not be deemed to have been effected (and, therefore, not requested for purposes of this Section 9.1(c)), (i) unless it has become effective, provided that a registration which does not become effective after the Company has filed a registration statement with respect thereto solely by reason of the refusal to proceed by the Requesting Stockholder (other than a refusal to proceed based upon the advice of counsel relating to a matter with respect to the Company) shall be deemed to have been effected by the Company at the request of such Requesting Stockholder unless the Requesting Stockholder shall have

elected to pay all Registration Expenses in connection with such registration, (ii) if after it has become effective such Registration is interfered with by any stop order, injunction or other order or requirement of the SEC or other governmental agency or court for any reason other than a misrepresentation or an omission by the Requesting Stockholder and, as a result thereof, the Common Stock requested to be registered cannot be completely distributed in accordance with the plan of distribution set forth in the related registration statement or (iii) if the closing pursuant to the purchase agreement or underwriting agreement entered into in connection with such Registration does not occur. Any Registration effected pursuant to Section 9.2 shall not be deemed to have been requested by a Requesting Stockholder for purposes of this Section 9.1(c).

9.2 Piggyback Registration Rights. If at any time following the completion of an IPO Event the Company proposes to effect another Registration, whether or not for sale for its own account and (subject to the provisions of Section 9.1 above) whether or not pursuant to the exercise of any of the demand registration rights referred to in Section 9.1 hereof, in a manner which would permit Registration of Registrable Securities for sale to the public under the Securities Act, it will each such time, subject to the provisions of Sections 9.1 and 9.2(c) hereof, give prompt written notice to all Stockholders of record of Registrable Securities of its intention to do so and of such Stockholders’ rights under this Article IX, at least 25 days prior to the anticipated filing date of the registration statement relating to such Registration. Such notice shall offer all such Stockholders the opportunity to include in such registration statement such number of Registrable Securities as each such Stockholder may request. Upon the written request of any such Stockholder made within 10 days after the receipt of the Company’s notice (which request shall specify the number of Registrable Securities intended to be disposed of by such Stockholder and the intended method of disposition thereof), the Company will use its best efforts to effect the Registration under the Securities Act and the qualification under any applicable state securities or Blue Sky laws of all Registrable Securities which the Company has been so requested to register by the Stockholders thereof, to the extent required to permit the disposition (in accordance with such intended

methods thereof) of the Registrable Securities so requested to be registered; provided that:

(a) if such Registration involves an underwritten public offering, all Stockholders requesting that their Registrable Securities be included in the Company’s Registration must, upon request by the underwriter(s), sell their Registrable Securities to such underwriter(s) selected by the Company (or the Requesting Stockholders in accordance with Section 9.1, as the case may be) on the same terms and conditions as apply to the Company or any selling securityholder (or on equivalent terms and conditions, in the event that such requesting Stockholders hold different securities from those being sold by the Company or such selling securityholder), including, without limitation, executing and delivering such underwriting agreements or other related agreements to which the Company or any such selling securityholder has agreed to execute and deliver;

(b) if, at any time after giving written notice of its intention to register any securities pursuant to this Section 9.2 and prior to the effective date of the registration statement filed in connection with such Registration, the Company shall determine for any reason not to register such securities, the Company shall give written notice to all Stockholders of Registrable Securities and, thereupon, shall be relieved of its obligation to register any Registrable Securities in connection with such Registration (without prejudice, however, to the rights of the Stockholders immediately to request that such registration be effected as a Registration under Section 9.1);

(c) if a Registration pursuant to this Section 9.2 involves an underwritten public offering, any Stockholder of Registrable Securities requesting to be included in such Registration may elect, in writing at least 10 days prior to the effective date of the registration statement filed in connection with such Registration, not to register such securities in connection with such Registration;

(d) the Company shall not be required to effect any Registration of Common Stock under this Section 9.2 incidental to the registration of any of its securities in connection with mergers, acquisitions,

exchange offers, subscription offers, dividend reinvestment plans or stock option or other executive or employee benefit or compensation plans (including, without limitation, any registration of securities on a Form S-4 or S-8 registration statement or any successor or similar forms); and

(e) no Registration of Common Stock effected under this Section 9.2 shall relieve the Company of its obligation to effect a Registration of shares of Common Stock pursuant to Section 9.1.

9.3 Priority in Piggyback Registrations.

(a) If at any time following an IPO Event the Company proposes to effect another Registration in connection with an underwritten offering (other than any Registration pursuant to the exercise of any of the demand registration rights referred to in Section 9.1 hereof or any demand registration rights which specify a priority for “piggyback” registration rights which is the same as set forth in Section 9.3(b) below (such latter form of demand registration rights, the “Permitted Demand Registration Rights”)), including any Registration for the Company’s account, and the managing underwriter(s) advise the Company in writing that, in its or their judgement, the number of shares of equity securities of the Company (including all shares of Registrable Securities) which the Company, the Stockholders and any other persons intend to include in such Registration exceeds the largest number of securities which can be sold without having an adverse effect on such offering, including the price at which such securities can be sold, the Company shall include in such Registration: (i) first, all securities the Company proposes to sell for its own account (the “Company Securities”), (ii) second, to the extent that the number or dollar amount of the Company Securities to be offered by the Company is less than the number of shares of securities which the Company has been advised can be sold in such offering without having the adverse effect referred to above, the number of Piggyback Securities requested to be sold by any Stockholder who is a member of the Windward Group or a Management Stockholder (provided that if the number of the Company Securities and Piggyback Securities exceeds the number of shares of securities which the Company has been advised can be sold in such offering without having the adverse effect referred to

above, the number of such Piggyback Securities to be included in such offering shall be allocated pro rata among all holders of such Piggyback Securities on the basis of the relative number or amount of Piggyback Securities each such holder has requested to be included in such Registration), and (iii) third, to the extent that the number of Company Securities and Piggyback Securities held by Stockholders is less than the number of shares of securities which the Company has been advised can be sold in such offering without having the adverse effect referred to above, the equity securities requested to be sold for the account of any other persons (allocated among the persons holding such other securities in such proportions as such persons and the Company may agree).

9.5 Restrictions on Public Sale by Stockholders and Company.

(a) In connection with any offering of securities of the Company, including, without limitation, any offering contemplated by this Article IX, each Stockholder agrees that, whether or not such Stockholder’s Registrable Securities are included in such Registration, it will consent and agree to comply with any “hold back” restriction, relating to Common Stock or any other securities of the Company then owned by such holder, that may be reasonably requested by the underwriter(s) or placement or other selling agent(s) of such offering. Without limitation to the foregoing, each Stockholder shall, upon request by such underwriter(s) or agent(s), agree not to effect any public sale or distribution, including any sale pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act, of any Registrable Securities, and not to effect any such

public sale or distribution of any other equity security of the Company or of any security convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for any equity security of the Company (in each case, other than as part of such underwritten public offering) during the 30 days prior to, and during the 180 day period beginning on, the effective date of such registration statement (except as part of such Registration).

(b) If any Registration of Registrable Securities pursuant to Article IX shall be in connection with an underwritten public offering, the Company agrees, if requested by the underwriter(s) or placement or other selling agent(s), (i) not to effect any public sale or distribution of any of its equity securities or of any security convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for any equity security of the Company (other than any such sale or distribution of such securities in connection with any merger or consolidation by the Company or a subsidiary of the Company or in connection with the purchase of all or substantially all the assets of any other person or in connection with an employee stock option or other benefit plan) during the 30 days prior to, and during the 180 day period beginning on, the effective date of such registration statement (except as part of such Registration) and (ii) that any agreement entered into after the date of this Agreement pursuant to which the Company issues or agrees to issue any privately placed equity securities shall contain a provision under which holders of such securities agree not to effect any public sale or distribution of any such securities during the period referred to in the foregoing clause (i) or during any of the periods referred to in Section 9.5(a) above, including any sale pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act (except as part of such Registration, if permitted).

(c) In connection with any offering of securities of the Company contemplated by this Article IX, the Company shall take such other actions in connection therewith as may be necessary or appropriate, including, without limitation, entering into customary underwriting arrangements and agreeing to indemnify any Requesting Stockholder or any other Stockholder selling Common Stock in such offering.

9.6 Indemnification by the Company. In the event of any Registration of any securities of the Company under the Securities Act pursuant to Article IX, the Company will, and it hereby does, indemnify and hold harmless, to the full extent permitted by law, each of the Stockholders holding any Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement, its Representatives, each other person who participates as an underwriter in the offering or sale of such securities and each other person, if any, who controls, is controlled by or is under common control with such Stockholder or any such underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act, against any and all losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, and expenses (including any amounts paid in any settlement effected with the Company’s consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld) to which such Stockholder, any such Representative or any such underwriter or controlling person may become subject under the Securities Act, state securities or blue sky laws, common law or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof) or expenses arise out of or are based upon (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in any registration statement under which such securities were registered under the Securities Act, any preliminary, final or summary prospectus contained therein, or any amendment or supplement thereto, (ii) any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, or (iii) any violation by the Company of any federal, state or common law rule or regulation applicable to the Company and relating to action required of or inaction by the Company in connection with any such Registration, and the Company will reimburse such Stockholder and each such Representative or underwriter and controlling person for any legal or any other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending such loss, claim, liability, action or proceeding; provided that the Company shall not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage, liability (or action or proceeding in respect thereof) or expenses arises out of or is based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in such registration statement or amendment or supplement thereto or in any such preliminary, final or summary

prospectus in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company through an instrument duly executed by such Stockholder or any such Representative or underwriter specifically stating that it is for use in the preparation thereof. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of such Stockholder or any such Representative or underwriter and shall survive the transfer of such securities by such Stockholder.

9.7 Indemnification by the Stockholders and Underwriters. The Company may require, as a condition to including any Registrable Securities in any registration statement filed in accordance with Article IX, that the Company shall have received an undertaking reasonably satisfactory to it from the Stockholders of such Registrable Securities and any underwriter, to indemnify and hold harmless (in the same manner and to the same extent as set forth in Section 9.6) the Company and its Representatives and all other prospective sellers and their respective Representatives, and their respective controlling persons with respect to any statement or alleged statement in or omission or alleged omission from such registration statement, any preliminary, final or summary prospectus contained therein, or any amendment or supplement thereto, if such statement or alleged statement or omission or alleged omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company or its representatives through an instrument duly executed by or on behalf of such Stockholder or underwriter, as the case may be, specifically stating that it is for use in the preparation of such registration statement, preliminary, final or summary prospectus or amendment or supplement thereto, or a document incorporated by reference into any of the foregoing. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Company or any of the Stockholders, underwriters or any of their respective Representatives or controlling persons and shall survive the transfer of such securities by such Stockholder; provided that no such Stockholder shall be liable under this Section 9.7 for any amounts exceeding the product of the purchase price per Registrable Security and the number of Registrable Securities being sold pursuant to such registration statement or prospectus by such Stockholder (net of any underwriters’ or placement agents’ fees, discounts or commissions related

thereto and net, in the case of the members of the Windward Group, of the purchase price paid by such member pursuant to the Stock Purchase Agreement).

9.8 Notices of Claims, Etc. Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party hereunder of written notice of the commencement of any action or proceeding with respect to which a claim for indemnification may be made pursuant to this Article IX, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against an indemnifying party, promptly give written notice to the latter of the commencement of such action; provided, however, that the failure of any indemnified party to give notice as provided herein shall not relieve the indemnifying party of its obligations under the preceding subsections of this Article IX, except to the extent that the indemnifying party is actually materially prejudiced by such failure to give notice. In case any such action is brought against an indemnified party, unless in such indemnified party’s reasonable judgment a conflict of interest between such indemnified and indemnifying parties may exist in respect of such claim, the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate in and, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, to assume the defense thereof, to the extent that it may wish, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party, and after notice from the indemnifying party of its election so to assume the defense thereof, the indemnifying party will not be liable to such indemnified party for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by the latter in connection with the defense thereof, unless in such indemnified party’s reasonable judgment a conflict of interest between such indemnified and indemnifying parties arises in respect of such claim after the assumption of the defense thereof, and the indemnifying party will not be subject to any liability for any settlement made without its consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld). No indemnifying party will consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such indemnified party of a release from all liability in respect to such claim or litigation. An indemnifying party who is not entitled to, or elects not to, assume the defense of a claim will not be obligated to pay the fees and expenses of more than one counsel for all parties indemnified by such indemnifying party with

respect to such claim, unless in the reasonable judgment of any indemnified party a conflict of interest may exist between such indemnified party and any other of such indemnified parties with respect to such claim, in which event the indemnifying party shall be obligated to pay the fees and expenses of such additional counsel or counsels.

9.9 Other Indemnification. Indemnification similar to that specified in the preceding Sections of this Article IX (with appropriate modifications) shall be given by the Company and each Stockholder of Registrable Securities with respect to any required Registration or other qualification of securities under any federal or state law or any regulation of a governmental authority other than arising under the Securities Act.

9.10 Registration Procedure.

(a) If and whenever the Company is required to effect or cause the Registration of any Registrable Securities pursuant to this Article IX, the Company will, as expeditiously as possible:

(1) Prepare in cooperation with the sellers (and, in the event of an underwritten public offering, with the underwriter(s)), and file with the SEC, in a manner consistent with the provisions of this Article IX, a registration statement with respect to such Registrable Securities on any form for which the Company then qualifies or which counsel for the Company shall deem appropriate as the case may be, and which form shall be available for the sale of the Registrable Securities in accordance with the intended methods of distribution thereof, and use its best efforts to cause such registration statement to become and remain effective; provided that before filing with the SEC a registration statement or prospectus or any amendments or supplements thereto, the Company will (i) furnish to one counsel selected by the Requesting Stockholder(s), in the event of a Registration effected pursuant to Section 9.1 hereof, or selected by the holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement, in the event of any other Registration, copies of all such documents proposed to be filed, which documents will be subject to the timely review of such counsel, and (ii) notify each holder of Registrable Securities covered by

such registration statement of any stop order issued or threatened by the SEC and take all reasonable actions required to prevent the entry of such stop order or to remove it if entered.

(2) Prepare and file with the SEC such amendments and supplements to such registration statement and the prospectus used in connection therewith as may be necessary to keep such registration statement effective for a period of not less than 120 days or such shorter period which will terminate when all Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement have been sold (but not before the expiration of the 90-day period referred to in Section 4(3) of the Securities Act and Rule 174 thereunder, if applicable) and comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all securities covered by such registration statement during such period in accordance with the intended methods of disposition by the seller or sellers thereof set forth in such registration statement.

(3) Furnish to each holder of Registrable Securities covered by the registration statement and to each underwriter, if any, of such Registrable Securities, such number of copies of such registration statement, each amendment and supplement thereto (in each case including all exhibits thereto), and the prospectus included in such registration statement (including each preliminary prospectus), and such other documents, as such person may reasonably request, in order to facilitate the public sale or other disposition of the Registrable Securities owned by such holder.

(4) Use its best efforts to register or qualify such Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement under such other securities or blue sky laws of such jurisdictions as any holder, and underwriter, if any, of Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement shall reasonably request, and do any and all other acts and things which may be reasonably necessary or advisable to enable such seller to consummate the disposition in such jurisdictions of the Registrable Securities owned by such seller; provided that the Company shall not for any such purpose, be required to (A) qualify to do business as a foreign corporation in any jurisdiction where, but for the requirements of this Section 9.10, it is not then so qualified,

(B) subject itself to taxation in any such jurisdiction, or (C) take any action which would subject it to consent to general or unlimited service or process not then so subject.

(5) Use its best efforts to cause such Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement to be registered with or approved by such other governmental agencies or authorities as may be necessary by virtue of the business and operations of the Company to enable the seller or sellers thereof to consummate the disposition of such Registrable Securities.

(6) Immediately notify each seller of Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement, at any time when a prospectus relating thereto is required to be delivered under the Securities Act, of the happening of any event which comes to the Company’s attention if as a result of such event the prospectus included in such registration statement, as then in effect, includes any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material, fact necessary in order to make the statements made therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading and at the request of any such seller, deliver a reasonable number of copies of an amended or supplemental prospectus as may be necessary so that, as thereafter delivered to the purchasers of such Registrable Securities, such prospectus shall not include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements made therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

(7) Otherwise use its best efforts to comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the SEC and make available to its security holders, in each case as soon as practicable, an earnings statement covering a period of at least 12 months, beginning with the first month after the effective date of the registration statement (as the term “effective date” is defined in Rule 158(c) under the Securities Act), which earnings statement shall satisfy the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act including, at the option of the Company, Rule 158 thereunder.

(8) Use its best efforts to cause all such Registrable Securities to be listed on such national securities exchange or the National Association of Securities Dealers National Market System as may be reasonably requested by the Requesting Stockholder, and if any similar securities issued by the Company are then listed on any securities exchanges or national market systems, to also list all such Registrable Securities on such securities exchanges or national market systems, and enter into such customary agreements including a listing application and indemnification agreement in customary form, provided that the applicable listing requirements are satisfied, and to provide a transfer agent and registrar for such Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement no later than the effective date of such registration statement.

(9) Use its best efforts to obtain a “cold comfort” letter from the independent public accountants for the Company in customary form and covering matters of the type customarily covered by such letters as may be reasonably requested by the Requesting Stockholder(s), in the event of a Registration effected pursuant to Section 9.1 hereof, or by the holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement, in the event of any other Registration.

(10) Execute and deliver all instruments and documents (including in an underwritten offering an underwriting agreement in customary form) and take such other actions and obtain such certificates and opinions as sellers of a majority of the Registrable Securities being sold reasonably request in order to effect an underwritten public offering of such Registrable Securities. The Company may require each holder of Registrable Securities as to which any Registration is being effected to furnish to the Company such information regarding such holder and the distribution of such Registrable Securities as the Company may from time to time reasonably request in writing in connection with effecting such offering.

(b) Each holder of Registrable Securities will, upon receipt of any notice from the Company of the happening of any event of the kind described in Section 9.10(a)(6), forthwith discontinue disposition of the

Registrable Securities pursuant to the registration statement covering such Registrable Securities until such holder’s receipt of the copies of the supplemented or amended prospectus contemplated by Section 9.10(a)(6), and, if so directed by the Company, such holder will deliver to the Company (at the Company’s expense) all copies, other than permanent file copies, then in such holder’s possession, of the prospectus covering such Registrable Securities at the time of receipt of such notice.

9.11 Rule 144. If the Company shall have filed a registration statement pursuant to the requirements of Section 12 of the Exchange Act or a registration statement pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Act, the Company covenants that it will file the reports required to be filed by it under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations adopted by the SEC thereunder (or, if the Company is not required to file such reports, it will, upon the request of any holder of Registrable Securities, make publicly available other information), and it will take such further action as any holder of Registrable Securities may reasonably request, all to the extent required from time to time to enable such holder to sell shares of Registrable Securities without registration under the Securities Act within the limitation of the exemptions provided by (i) Rule 144 under the Securities Act, as such Rule may be amended from time to time, or (ii) any similar rule or regulation hereafter adopted by the SEC. Upon the request of any holder of Registrable Securities, the Company will deliver to such holder a written statement as to whether it has complied with such requirements.

Upon any such notice of resignation by Windward (or any such successor thereof), the Requisite Members shall appoint a successor agent. If a successor agent shall not have been so appointed within said 30 Business Day period, Windward (or any duly appointed

successor thereof) shall then appoint a successor who shall serve as agent on behalf of the Windward Group under this Agreement until such time, if any, as the Requisite Members appoint a successor agent as provided in this Section 12.1(e). Windward (or any successor thereof appointed pursuant to this Section 12.1(e)) may be removed by the Requisite Members and replaced with another person, at any time and for any reason, upon ten (10) days prior written notice given by the Requisite Members to the agent then in effect and all other parties to this Agreement. Upon the appointment of a successor agent hereunder, references in this Agreement to Windward, acting in its role as agent for the Windward Group, shall, for all purposes of this Agreement, thereafter mean such successor agent.

(e) In the event that any member of the Windward Group does not opt to purchase its allocable share of Company Stock pursuant to the exercise of any preemptive rights pursuant to Article VI hereof or the right of first refusal in Article III, or sell its allocable shares pursuant to the “tag-along” rights in Article IV, Windward (or any successor thereof appointed pursuant to Section 12.1(e) above) may reallocate such shares among the remaining members of the Windward Group, in such manner as it deems reasonably appropriate in light of each member’s relevant interests and the particular circumstances.

12.2 Appointment of Agent for the Management Stockholders. Each Management Stockholder hereby irrevocably designates and appoints Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxx as its attorney-in-fact, agent and representative, to act on its behalf and on behalf of its Permitted Transferees in connection with exercising any of its rights, performing any of its duties or obligations or enforcing any claims or rights on its behalf, arising pursuant to Article IX of this Agreement.

Each of the parties hereto also irrevocably and unconditionally consents to the service of any process, summons, pleadings, notices or other papers in a manner permitted by the notice provisions of Section 14.7 hereof and agrees that any such form of service shall be effective in connection with any such Suit; provided that nothing contained herein shall affect the right of any party to serve process, pleadings, notices or other papers in any other manner permitted by applicable Law. Each of the parties hereto also agrees that any final and unappealable judgment against a party hereto in any Suit shall be conclusive and binding on such party and that such judgment may be enforced in any other jurisdiction, either within or outside of the United States, by suit on the judgment, a certified or exemplified copy of which shall be conclusive evidence of the fact and amount of such judgment.

14.4 Attorneys’ Fees.

14.10 Successors; Assigns; Transferees; Amendments; Waivers.

(a) The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and accrue to the benefit of the

parties hereto and their respective heirs, successors and permitted assigns. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement may not be amended, modified or supplemented, no waivers of, consents to or departures from the provisions hereof may be given, and neither this Agreement nor any right, remedy, obligation or liability arising hereunder or by reason hereof shall be assignable by the Company or any Stockholder without the prior written consent of (i) each of the Company and the Windward Agent (and their respective Permitted Transferees) and (ii) the Management Stockholders owning a majority of the shares of Common Stock which are owned by all the Management Stockholders; provided that this Agreement may be amended, modified or supplemented by the Company, and waivers of, consents to or departures from the provisions hereof may be given by the Company, in order to cure any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency in this Agreement, so long as (x) such action does not adversely affect the rights of any Stockholder in any material respect and (y) the Company promptly notifies each Stockholder in accordance with the provisions of Section 14.7 hereof of such action.

(b) The rights and remedies of the Stockholders and the Company under this Agreement shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies which either would otherwise have hereunder or at law or in equity or by statute, and no failure or delay by either party in exercising any right or remedy shall impair any such right or remedy or operate as a waiver of such right or remedy, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any power or right preclude such party’s other or further exercise or the exercise of any other power or right.

14.11 Defaults; No Circumvention of Agreement. A default by any party to this Agreement in such party’s compliance with any of the conditions or covenants hereof or performance of any of the obligations of such party hereunder shall not constitute a default by any other party.

EXHIBIT A TO STOCKHOLDERS AGREEMENT

THIS NOTE HAS NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”). NO SALE, HYPOTHECATION, TRANSFER OR OTHER DISPOSITION OF THIS NOTE (OTHER THAN TO THE ISSUER THEREOF) MAY BE MADE UNLESS (A) EITHER PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR PURSUANT TO AN EXEMPTION FROM THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT AND (B) IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE PROVISIONS OF THIS NOTE.

JUNIOR SUBORDINATED PROMISSORY NOTE

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned, HCC INDUSTRIES INC., a Delaware corporation [ALTERNATIVELY, INSERT NAME OF DESIGNEE OF COMPANY] (the “Obligor”), hereby promises to pay to [INSERT NAME OF MANAGEMENT STOCKHOLDER OR PERMITTED TRANSFEREE (AS THE CASE MAY BE)] (such person, or any Authorized Transferee (as defined in Section 3 hereof) of such person, the “Holder”) the principal amount of [INSERT PRINCIPAL AMOUNT OF NOTE] ($_________), plus interest accrued but unpaid thereon, on [INSERT DATE WHICH IS [FIFTH] ANNIVERSARY OF THE DATE OF ISSUANCE OF THIS NOTE (or such later date as may be required pursuant to the terms of any financing agreement of the Company). Interest in the unpaid principal amount hereof shall accrue at an eight percent (8%) annual rate of interest, from the date hereof until maturity, computed on the basis of a 365-day year for the actual number of days elapsed and shall be payable semi-annually on the first day of June and December in each year commencing with the June or December next following the issuance of this Note (each such semiannual date, an “Interest Payment Date”); provided that in the event that, on any Interest Payment Date, the Company (as defined below) is permitted to defer any repurchases of Common Stock pursuant to Section 7.3 of the Stockholders Agreement, the Company shall be permitted to defer such payment of interest until the next Interest Payment Date on which it is no longer permitted to defer any repurchases of Common Stock pursuant to Section 7.3 of the Stockholders Agreement (at which time all interest accrued to such date shall become due and payable).

1. Stockholders Agreement. This Note has been issued pursuant to the provisions of Article VII of the Stockholders Agreement dated as of February 14, 1997 (the “Stockholders Agreement”), by and among by and among HCC Industries Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), Windward Capital Associates, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership, Windward/Park HCC, L.L.C., a Delaware limited liability company, Windward/Merban, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership, Windward/Merchant, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership and the members of the Company’s management listed in the Schedule of Management Stockholders attached hereto, and such other persons or entities who or which become parties to the Stockholders Agreement pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Stockholders Agreement. All capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined herein shall have the same meanings as set forth in the Stockholders Agreement.

2. Payment of Amounts. Payments of principal and interest shall be made in lawful money of the United States of America at the principal office of the Obligor upon presentation of this Note for notation of such payment hereon.

3. Non-Transferability of Note. This Note is not negotiable and may be transferred by the Holder only to one or more of its Affiliates who agree to be bound by the transfer restrictions hereunder (any such transferee to whom this Note is transferred in compliance with the provisions of this Note, an “Authorized Transferee”). With respect to any such authorized transfer, this Note is transferable only by surrender and cancellation of this Note at the principal office of the Obligor 0000 Xxxxxx Xxxx Xxxx., Xxxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxx 00000 or at such other location as shall at such time be the principal office of the Obligor, by the Holder in person or by an attorney-in-fact duly authorized in writing. Upon any such authorized transfer a new note, in the name of such Authorized Transferee(s), in substantially the form of this Note and for the aggregate unpaid principal amount hereof, will be issued in exchange hereof.

4. Registered Holder. The Obligor, and any agents of the Obligor, may deem and treat the Holder as the registered holder hereof, and as the absolute owner of this Note, for the purpose of receiving payment of or on account of the principal of and interest on this Note

and neither the Obligor nor any such agent shall be affected by any notice to the contrary. The Obligor, and any agent of the Obligor, may without liability refuse to recognize any assignee or other holder of this Note, other than any Authorized Transferee, as owner of this Note for any and all purposes whatsoever.

5. Optional Prepayment. The amounts owed under this Note are prepayable (at the discretion of the Obligor) at any time and from time to time, in whole or in part, upon notice to the Holder given by certified mail, return receipt requested, not less than 10 Business Days prior to the date fixed for prepayment, at a prepayment price equal to the principal amount of this Note to be prepaid, together with the interest accrued but unpaid hereon, to the date fixed for prepayment. Any prepayment of less than the entire principal amount of this Note (plus all accrued but unpaid interest thereon) shall be applied first towards the payment of unpaid interest hereon and then to the unpaid principal hereof.

6. Mandatory Prepayment. The Obligor covenants and agrees that, within 10 Business Days following the consummation of (a) a Compelled Sale or (b) a sale of all or substantially all of the assets of or equity interests in the Company to a Third Party, it shall give written notice thereof to the Holder. Subject to Section 9 hereof, within 10 Business Days following the date of delivery of such notice the Obligor will prepay this Note in full, at a prepayment price equal to the outstanding principal amount of this Note, together with the interest accrued but unpaid hereon, to the date fixed for prepayment.

7. Offset. The indebtedness evidenced hereunder may be reduced or offset by the Obligor in respect of any and all indebtedness owed to the Obligor by the Holder.

8. Events of Default.

(a) Subject to the provisions of Section 9 hereof and to the proviso set forth in the preamble hereto, an “Event of Default” occurs if: (i) the Obligor defaults in the payment of any interest on the Note when the same becomes due and payable, and such default continues for 10 days; (ii) the Obligor defaults in the payment

of the principal of the Note when the same becomes due and payable at the stated maturity, upon mandatory redemption, acceleration or otherwise; or (iii) the Obligor or any of its subsidiaries pursuant to or within the meaning of any Bankruptcy Law (as defined in the Subordinated Note Agreement): (A) commences a voluntary case; (B) consents to the entry of an order for relief against it in an involuntary case; (C) consents to the appointment of a custodian of it or for any substantial part of its property; (D) makes a general assignment for the benefit of its creditors; or (E) a court of competent jurisdiction enters an order or decree under any Bankruptcy Law that: (1) is for relief against the Obligor in an involuntary case; (2) appoints a custodian of the Obligor or for any substantial part of its property; or (3) orders the winding up or liquidation of the Obligor or any of its subsidiaries, and the order or decree remains unstayed and in effect for 60 days.

(b) Subject to the provisions of Section 9 hereof, if an Event of Default pursuant to clause (a)(iii) occurs and is continuing, then the amounts amount owed under the Note shall ipso facto become and be immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the Holder. Subject to the provisions of Section 9 hereof, upon an Event of Default pursuant to clauses (a)(i) or (a)(ii) above, the Holder, at its option, may declare the entire principal amount of this Note to be, and such Note shall forthwith mature and become, due and payable, but only after such Holder notifies the Obligor of the default and the Obligor does not cure the default within 30 days after receipt of such notice; such notice by the Holder must specify the default and demand that it be remedied.

9. Subordination. The principal amount of and the interest on this Note shall be fully subordinated and junior to the prior payment in full in cash all Senior Debt (as hereinafter defined) of the Obligor, whether outstanding at the date of this Note or created or incurred by the Obligor after the date of this Note on the terms and conditions set forth below:

(a) Upon maturity of any Senior Debt by lapse of time, acceleration or otherwise, then all such mature Senior Debt shall first be paid in full

before any payment on account of principal or interest is made on this Note.

(b) In the event of any insolvency, bankruptcy, liquidation, reorganization or other similar proceedings, or any receivership proceedings in connection therewith, relative to the Obligor or its creditors or its property, and in the event of any proceedings for partial or total liquidation, dissolution or other winding up of the Obligor, whether or not involving insolvency or bankruptcy proceedings, then all Senior Debt shall first be paid in full before any payment on account of principal or interest is made upon this Note. In any of the proceedings referred to in the first sentence of this subparagraph (b) (“Insolvency Proceedings”), unless and until all Senior Debt shall have been paid in full, if any payment shall have been made, or any payment or distribution of any kind or character, whether in cash, property, stock or obligations, which may be payable or deliverable in respect of the principal amount of or interest on this Note shall be made, then such amounts shall be paid or delivered directly to the holders of Senior Debt (or to a banking institution selected by the court or person making the payment or delivery or designated by any holder of Senior Debt) for application in payment thereof, and the holders of Senior Debt shall be entitled to enforce all claims of the Holder with respect to the principal and interest payable hereunder and to take generally any action in connection with such Insolvency Proceedings which the Holder hereof might otherwise take in respect of such Holder’s claims hereunder.

(c) During the continuance of any default in the payment of any Senior Debt or any other default (whether or not matured) under any instrument or agreement evidencing Senior Debt, (i) the Obligor shall not make, and the Holder shall not accept, any payment of principal of or interest on, or purchase or acquire for value, this Note, and (ii) the Holder shall not commence any Insolvency Proceedings or take any other legal or other action of any kind to enforce any of its rights to payment hereunder.

(d) Any payment of principal or interest on this Note made to or received by the Holder other than in compliance with this Section 9 shall be held in trust for the benefit of and paid over to the holders of Senior Debt.

(e) Until the Senior Debt shall have been indefeasibly paid in full, in the event that, and during the continuance of any Event of Default described in Section 8(a) hereof, all or any portion of the unpaid principal amount of this Note shall have been declared due and payable pursuant to the provisions of Section 8 hereof, such declarations shall not be effective until the earlier of (i) the date on which an Event of Default under Section 8(a)(iii) has occurred, or (ii) the date on which the maturity of any Senior Debt is accelerated.
