the FAI Group, as the case may be, then:

               (a) the relevant party (the "Selling Party") shall give notice in
writing to the other party (the "Continuing Party") of such desire and of its
proposed price (in this clause referred to as a "Transfer Notice");

               (b) within thirty (30) days after receipt of the Transfer Notice,
the Continuing Party shall have the right by notice in writing (a "Purchase
Notice") to inform the Selling Party that it wishes to purchase the shares
included in the Transfer Notice (the "Sale Shares") at such price as may be
specified in the Transfer Notice;

               (c) if the Continuing Party so serves a Purchase Notice, the sale
and purchase of the Sale Shares shall be completed accordingly; if not, neither
the Selling Party nor any other member of its Group shall thereafter be entitled
to sell the Sale Shares but shall be entitled to request an independent,
internationally recognized banker or other expert customarily engaged in company
valuation mutually agreed upon by HK and FAI (acting as experts and not as
arbitrators) to determine the price (herein called the "Fair Price")
representing in their opinion a fair selling value of the Sale Shares as between
a willing buyer and a willing seller, provided, however, that if HK and FAI
cannot agree upon the party to determine the Fair Price, each of HK and FAI
shall select an otherwise qualified party and the two parties selected shall
select a third party which party shall determine the Fair Price.

               (d) upon the Fair Price being so determined, the Selling Party

of receipt of the Second Transfer Notice accepting such offer, the sale and

                                       9

<PAGE>

purchase of the Sale Shares shall be completed accordingly; if not, the Selling
Party or any other member of its Group shall thereafter be entitled to sell the
Sale shares at not less than the Fair Price to a third party purchaser (approved
by the Continuing Party in writing but such approval shall not be unreasonably
withheld) and who shall thereupon be regarded for purposes of this Agreement as
a member of the same Group as the Selling Party) within a period of sixty (60)
days but not otherwise; and

               (f) if any party is prevented or prohibited from acquiring any
shares because of any legal requirement, that party shall have the right to
nominate either (i) another person(s) from that party's Group, who is not
prohibited from purchasing such shares to acquire such shares, and such shares
shall be sold to such person(s) or (ii) a person(s) who is not a member of a
party's Group, in which case, the other party shall have no right to approve or
object to any such person unless the other party has demonstrated that a
commercial or other conflict would arise were such person to be allowed to
acquire such shares.

          6.2 Transfers to Members of its Group.

               (a) Each party shall have the right, upon thirty (30) days
advance written notice to the other party, to transfer all or part of its shares
to one or more members of its Group, provided that the other party has no
reasonable objection to the transfer.

               (b) The member of the FAI Group, or member of the HK Group, as
the case may be, shall, in writing, agree to re-transfer such shares to the
transferring party without further action on the date on which the transferee
ceases to be a member of that Group.

               (c) The parties intend that all transfers within Groups and to
parties outside Groups be done in a manner which will preserve the foreign vs.
Thai shareholding structure.

          6.3 No Dealings in Beneficial Interest. Neither FAI nor HK (nor any
member of its respective Group) shall deal or attempt to deal with the
beneficial interest in any share of FAC except by transfer of its shareholding
permitted in accordance with this clause 6 or the transfer of shares (or
interests therein) by FAI to Stephen Scibelli or John Tunney or as permitted by
paragraph 7 of the Articles of Association.

          6.4 Undertaking by Transferee. No transfer of shares of FAC shall be
registered or become effective unless the transferee shall first have entered
into an agreement undertaking to be bound by this Agreement (including this
clause 6) to the same extent as the transferor would have been bound had the
transfer not been effected.

          6.5 Minimum Period. Neither party (nor any member of the HK Group or
any member of the FAI Group, as the case may be) shall be entitled to serve a
Transfer Notice under clause 6.1 prior to five (5) years from Completion.

          6.6 Shareholder Ceasing to be a Member of the Group. Each of FAI and
HK respectively undertakes to procure that, if any member of its Group holding
shares in FAC ceases at any time to be a member of that party, that member
shall, prior to so ceasing, have transferred all its shares in FAC held by it at
the time in question to the relevant party (or another member of its Group).

     7. Confidentiality.

          7.1 Confidentiality. Each of the parties at all times shall use all
reasonable endeavors to keep confidential (and to ensure that its employees and
agents shall keep confidential) any confidential information which it may
acquire in relation to FAC and its subsidiaries, if any, or in relation to the
clients, business or affairs of the other party (or any member of its respective
Group) and shall not use or disclose such information except with the consent of
the other party or, in the case of information relating to FAC or one of its
subsidiaries, if any, in the ordinary course of advancing the business of FAC.
The restriction in this clause 7.1 shall not apply to any information:

               (a) which is publicly available or becomes publicly available
through no act of the first mentioned party;

disclosure;

               (c) which is disclosed to that party by a third party which did
not acquire the information under an obligation of confidentiality;

               (d) which is independently acquired by that party as the result
of work carried out by an employee to whom no disclosure of such information had
been made; or

               (e) which is disclosed in accordance with the requirements of
law, any stock exchange regulation or any binding judgment, order or requirement
of any court or other competent authority.

          7.2 Employees, Agents, etc. Each party shall use all of its respective

     9. Supremacy of This Agreement.

               (a) FAI and HK shall each use their respective votes in FAC and
make reasonable efforts (i) to ensure that this Agreement is duly performed and
(ii) to ensure that the provisions of the Memorandum and Articles are not
infringed (save that, in the event of any conflict between this Agreement and
the Memorandum and the Articles, this Agreement shall prevail as between the
parties).

               (b) FAI and HK shall cause their nominated directors on the Board
to vote at Board meetings and shall also exercise or cause to be exercised their

this Agreement.

     10. Costs. Costs of FAI and HK incurred as of 1 February 1997 in connection
with the establishment of FAC and the costs of the incorporation of FAC shall be

after having obtained the prior written approval of the other party, being FAI

incorporation of FAC. All other costs of each party as from 1 February 1997
shall be solely for the account of that party except that FAC shall pay all
reasonable legal fees and expenses incurred by HK and Stephen Scibelli in
connection with this Agreement.

     11. No Partnership or Agency. Nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to
constitute a partnership between the parties or constitute any party the agent
of the other parties for any purpose or entitle any party to commit or bind any
other party (or any member of its respective Group) in any manner.

     12. Entire Agreement. This Agreement, together with that certain letter
agreement of even date herewith among FAI, HK, FAC, FI and Foamex L.P., sets out
the entire agreement and understanding between the parties and shall supersede
all previous communications, either oral or written, between the parties with
respect to the subject matter hereof including the Memorandum of Understanding,
dated June 20, 2001, between FAI and HK.

     13. Amendments. This Agreement may be amended only by an instrument in

Agreement which is purported to have been made verbally shall be valid.

     14. Mutual Consultation And Goodwill. The parties confirm their intention
to promote the best interests of FAC and to consult fully on all matters
materially affecting the development of the business of FAC. Each party shall

                                      12

act in good faith towards the other party in order to promote the success of
