SECTION 2.  REGISTRATION RIGHTS


 


(a)           Registration Statements.


 


(i)            S-1 Registration Statement. 
At any time at which the Company is not eligible to use Form S-3,
upon the receipt of a Demand Notice from the Initiating Holders, the Company
shall, at its cost, (x) file a Registration Statement on Form S-1 or
similar long-form Registration Statement to effect a Registration with respect
to the number of Registrable Securities held by the Initiating Holders (directly
or through Ramius) specified in such Demand Notice (provided that the
Initiating Holders shall not be entitled to sell Registrable Securities
pursuant to a Registration to the extent that any such sale would violate
either Section 8.1 of the Asset Exchange Agreement or Section 4.02 of
the Ramius LLC Agreement) and (y) use its reasonable best efforts to
effect such Registration (including, without limitation, the execution of an
undertaking to file post-effective amendments, appropriate qualification under
applicable blue sky or other state securities laws and appropriate compliance
with applicable regulations issued under the Securities Act) as would permit or
facilitate the distribution, sale and resale of such number of Registrable
Securities as are specified in the Demand Notice, provided that (x) in
no event shall any such Registration Statement on Form S-1 become
effective prior to the date that is one day after the six-month anniversary of
the date of this Agreement and (y) the Company shall not be obligated to
effect, or take any action to effect, any such Registration pursuant to this Section 2(a)(i),
in any particular jurisdiction in which the Company would be required to
execute a general consent to service of process in effecting such Registration,
qualification or compliance, unless the Company is already subject to service
in such jurisdiction and except as may be required by the Securities Act or
applicable rules or regulations thereunder.


 


4

















 


(ii)           S-3 Resale Registration Statement. 
The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to qualify and
maintain eligibility for Registration on Form S-3 for secondary sales as
soon as practicable after the date of this Agreement.  After the Company has qualified for the use
of Form S-3, the Company shall file a Form S-3 Registration Statement
with the Commission at its cost, and, as promptly as practicable thereafter,
shall use its reasonable best efforts to effect and maintain the Registration
of all shares of Registrable Securities on Form S-3 (including, without
limitation, the execution of an undertaking to file post-effective amendments,
appropriate qualification under applicable blue sky or other state securities
laws and appropriate compliance with applicable regulations issued under the
Securities Act) for purposes of disposition thereof, at any time and from time
to time for so long as Ramius or any of the UCI Parties hold any Registrable
Securities, subject to Section 2(h). 
If the Company qualifies to do so, it shall file an automatic
Registration Statement on Form S-3 in response to any request for
Registration pursuant to this Section 2(a)(ii).  Upon effecting the Registration of all shares
of Registrable Securities on Form S-3 and during the effectiveness of such
Form S-3 Resale Registration Statement, the Company shall no longer be
required to comply with the terms of Section 2(a)(i).


 


(iii)          Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained
herein, for a period not to exceed sixty (60) consecutive calendar days and not
to exceed one hundred twenty (120) calendar days in any twelve-month period
(each a “Black Out Period”), provided that there must be an interim
period of at least ninety (90) consecutive days between the end of one Black
Out Period and the beginning of another Black Out Period, the Company will not
be required to file any Registration Statement pursuant to this Agreement, file
any amendment thereto, furnish any supplement to a Prospectus included in a
Registration Statement, make any other filing with the Commission required
pursuant to this Agreement, cause any Registration Statement or other filing
with the Commission required pursuant to this Agreement, cause any Registration
Statement or other filing with the Commission to become effective, or take any
similar action, and any and all sales of Registrable Securities by the Holders
pursuant to an effective Registration Statement shall be suspended:  (A) if an event has occurred and is
continuing as a result of which any Registration Statement or Prospectus would,
in the Company’s reasonable judgment based on advice of outside counsel to the
Company, contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a
material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements
therein not misleading, or (B) if the Company notifies the Holders that
such actions would, in the good faith judgment of outside counsel to the
Company, require the disclosure of material non-public information which the
Company has a bona fide business purpose for preserving as confidential and
which the Company would not otherwise be required to disclose.  Upon the termination of the condition
described in clauses (A) or (B) of above, the Company shall promptly
give written notice to the Holders and shall promptly file any Registration
Statement or amendment thereto required to be filed by it pursuant to this
Agreement, furnish any Prospectus required to be furnished pursuant to this
Agreement, make any other filing with the Commission required of it or
terminate any suspension of sales it has put into effect and shall take such
other actions to permit registered sales of Registrable Securities as
contemplated by this Agreement.

(b)           Underwritten Offerings.


 


(i)            Request for Underwritten Offering. 
If the Company shall receive from the Initiating Holders a written
notice (a “Demand Notice”) that an Initiating Holder intends to distribute, by
means of an underwritten offering, Registrable Securities under an effective
Registration Statement filed pursuant to Section 2(a), the Company will
cooperate with the Initiating Holders to consummate such offering and will
promptly give written notice of the proposed underwritten offering to all other
Holders in accordance with the terms of Section 2(c).


 


(ii)           Underwriting Procedures.  If Holders,
to the extent they have any registration rights under Section 2(c),
request inclusion of their shares of Class A Common Stock in the
underwriting, the Initiating Holder shall offer to include the shares of Class A
Common Stock of such Holders in the underwriting and may condition such offer
on their acceptance of the further applicable provisions of this Section 2.  The Holders whose Registrable Securities are
to be included in such underwriting and the Company shall enter into an
underwriting agreement in customary form with the managing underwriter or
underwriters selected for such underwriting by the Initiating Holder and
reasonably acceptable to the Company; provided, however, that
such underwriting agreement shall not provide for indemnification or
contribution obligations on the part of any Holder greater than the obligations
of the Holders under Section (2)(f)(ii) or Section 2(f)(iv).  Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 2(b),
if the managing underwriter or underwriters advises the Holders in writing that
marketing factors require a limitation on the number of shares to be
underwritten, the securities of the Company held by Holders other than the UCI
Parties or Ramius (on behalf of the UCI Parties) shall be excluded from such
underwriting on a pro rata basis (based on the number of shares held by such
Holders), in such minimum number of shares so required by such limitation.  If, after the exclusion of such shares held
by those Holders, further reductions are still required due to the marketing
limitation, the number of Registrable Securities included in the underwriting
by each Holder (including the Initiating Holder) shall be reduced on a pro rata
basis (based on the number of shares held by such Holder), by such minimum
number of shares as is necessary to comply with such request.  No Registrable Securities or any other
securities excluded from the underwriting by reason of the underwriter’s marketing
limitation shall be included in such underwriting.  If any Holder who has requested inclusion in
such underwriting as provided above disapproves of the terms of the
underwriting, such Person may elect to withdraw therefrom by providing written
notice to the Company, the underwriter and the Initiating Holder.  The securities so withdrawn shall also be
withdrawn from underwriting.  If the
underwriter has not limited the number of Registrable Securities or other
securities to be underwritten, the Company and officers and directors of the
Company (whether or not such Persons have registration rights pursuant to Section 2(c) hereof)
may include its or their securities for its or their own account in such
underwriting if the managing underwriter or underwriters so agrees and if the
number of Registrable Securities and other securities which would otherwise
have been included in such underwriting will not thereby be limited.


 


6

















 


(iii)          Underwriting Terms.  In the case
of an underwritten offering under this Section 2(b), the price,
underwriting discount and other financial terms for the Registrable Securities
shall be determined by the Initiating Holder.


 


(iv)          Number of Underwritten Offerings and Company Supported
Distributions.  The Company shall have no obligations
pursuant to this Section 2(b) to effect more than six (6) underwritten
offerings, of which up to three (3) may be Company Supported Distributions
on behalf of the Initiating Holders pursuant to this Section 2(b).


 


(c)           Piggyback Offerings.


 


(i)            Underwritings.  If the
Company gives notice of a Registered public offering involving an underwriting
of its Class A Common Stock for (x) its own account or (y) for
the account of the Initiating Holders pursuant to the terms of Section 2(b) in
a Company Supported Distribution, the Company shall so advise each of the
Holders in writing thereof and such Holders may, upon written notice to the
Company, participate in such underwriting and include such Holders’ Registrable
Securities (to the extent that such participation would not violate Section 8.1
of the Asset Exchange Agreement or Section 4.02 of the Ramius LLC
Agreement) in the underwriting to the extent provided herein.  Any Holder who does not provide written notice
of its intention to participate in such underwriting agrees that, from the date
of receipt of written notice of such underwriting until the date that is ninety
(90) calendar days following the closing of such underwriting, such Holder
shall not sell, make any short sale of, loan, grant any option for the purchase
of, effect any public sale or distribution of or otherwise dispose of any
securities of the Company.  The Holders whose shares are to
be included in such underwriting shall (together with the Company distributing
their securities through such underwriting) enter into an underwriting
agreement in customary form with the managing underwriter or underwriters
selected for underwriting by the Company (and if the underwriting was initiated
by a Holder pursuant to Section 2(b), such underwriters must be selected
by the Initiating Holder and be reasonably acceptable to the Company); provided,
however, that such underwriting agreement shall not provide for
indemnification or contribution obligations on the part of any Holder greater
than the obligations of the Holders under Section 2(f)(ii) or Section 2(f)(iv).
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 2(c), if any
underwriting in which a Holder is exercising its rights under this Section 2(c) is
for the Company’s own account and the managing underwriter or underwriters
advises the Company that in its view marketing factors require a limitation on
the number of shares to be underwritten, the managing underwriter or
underwriters may (subject to the allocation priority set forth below) exclude
from such underwriting some or all of the Registrable Securities which would
otherwise be underwritten pursuant hereto. 
The Company shall promptly advise all holders of securities requesting
inclusion in the underwriting of such limitation, and the number of shares of
securities that are entitled to be included in the underwriting shall be
allocated in the following manner:  the
securities of the Company held by Holders (other than the UCI Parties and
Ramius on behalf of the UCI Parties) or to be issued by the Company shall be
excluded from such underwriting to the extent required by such limitation, and,
if a limitation on the number of shares is still required, the number of shares
that may be 


 


7

















 


included in the
underwriting by each of the UCI Parties and Ramius on behalf of the UCI Parties
shall be reduced, on a pro rata basis (based on the number of shares held by
such UCI Party and Ramius on behalf of the UCI Parties), by such minimum number
of shares as is necessary to comply with such limitation.  If any of the Holders disapproves of the
terms of any such underwriting, he, she or it may elect to withdraw therefrom
by providing written notice to the Company and the underwriter.


 


(d)           Expenses of Registration.  All
Registration Expenses incurred in connection with any Registration,
underwriting, qualification or compliance pursuant to this Section 2 shall
be borne by the Company, and all Selling Expenses shall be borne by the Holders
of the securities included in such underwriting pro rata on the basis of the
number of their shares so included; provided, however, the Company
shall not be required to pay for expenses of any underwriting begun pursuant to
Section 2(b), the request for which has been subsequently withdrawn by the
Initiating Holder unless (i) the withdrawal is based upon material adverse
information concerning the Company of which the Initiating Holder was not aware
at the time of such request or (ii) in the case of a withdrawn Company
Supported Distribution, the Initiating Holder agrees to forfeit its right to
one requested underwriting pursuant to Section 2(b), as applicable.


 


(e)           Registration Procedures. 
In the case of each Registration effected by the Company pursuant to
this Section 2, the Company will keep the Participating Holders advised in
writing as to the initiation of each Registration.  At its expense, the Company will:


 


(i)            (A) keep any Registration of Registrable
Securities on Form S-1 effective for at least ninety (90) days; and (B) keep
any Registration Statement on Form S-3 effective until all such
Registrable Securities are sold, provided that Rule 415, or any successor rule under
the Securities Act, permits an offering on a continuous or delayed basis;


 


(ii)           as promptly as practicable, prepare and file with the
Commission such pre- and post-effective amendments to such Registration
Statement, supplements to the Prospectus and such amendments or supplements to
any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus as may be necessary to keep such
Registration effective for the period of time required by this Agreement, and
comply with provisions of the applicable securities laws with respect to the
sale or other disposition of all securities covered by such Registration
Statement during such period in accordance with the intended method or methods
of disposition by the sellers thereof set forth in such Registration Statement;


 


(iii)          notify the Participating Holders and the managing
underwriter or underwriters, if any, and (if requested) confirm such advice in
writing and provide copies of the relevant documents, as promptly as
practicable after notice thereof is received by the Company (1) when the
applicable Registration Statement or any amendment thereto has been filed or
becomes effective, and when the applicable Prospectus or Issuer Free Writing
Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto has been filed, (2) to
the extent any of the following relates to the Participating Holders or

representations and warranties of the Company in any applicable underwriting
agreement cease to be true and correct in all material respects, and (5) of

of the qualification of the Registrable Securities for offering or sale in any
jurisdiction or the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such
purpose;


 


(iv)          promptly notify the Participating Holders and the
managing underwriter or underwriters, if any, when the Company becomes aware of
the happening of any event as a result of which the applicable Registration
Statement, the Prospectus included in such Registration Statement (as then in
effect) or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus contains any untrue statement of
a material fact or omits to state a material fact required to be stated therein
or necessary in order to make the statements therein (in the case of such
Prospectus or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, in light of the circumstances
under which they were made) not misleading, and when any Issuer Free Writing
Prospectus includes information that may conflict with the information
contained in the Registration Statement, or, if for any other reason it shall
be necessary during such time period to amend or supplement such Registration
Statement, Prospectus or Issuer Free Writing Prospectus in order to comply with
the Securities Act and, in either case as promptly as practicable thereafter,
prepare and file with the Commission, and furnish without charge to the

or the Exchange Act) against any and all Losses arising out of or based on (A) any
untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) of a material fact contained in
any Registration Statement (including any Prospectus or Issuer Free Writing
Prospectus) or any other document incident to any such Registration,
qualification or compliance (including any notification or the like) made by
such Participating Holder in writing or (B) any omission (or alleged
omission) to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or
necessary to make the statements by such Participating Holder therein not
misleading (in the case of any Prospectus or Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, in
light of the circumstances under which they were made not misleading) and will
reimburse the Persons listed above for any legal or any other expenses
reasonably incurred in connection with investigating or defending any such
Losses, in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue
statement (or alleged untrue statement) or omission (or alleged omission) is
made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to
the Company by


 


11
















 


such Participating Holder
and stated to be specifically for use therein; provided, however,
that the obligations of each of the Participating Holders hereunder shall be
limited to an amount equal to the net proceeds such Participating Holder
receives in such Registration.


 


(iii)          Conduct of the Indemnification Proceedings. 
Each party entitled to indemnification under this Section 2(f) (the
“Indemnified Party”) shall give notice to the party required to provide
indemnification (the “Indemnifying Party”) promptly after such
Indemnified Party has actual knowledge of any claim as to which indemnity may
be sought, and shall permit the Indemnifying Party to assume the defense of any
such claim or any litigation resulting therefrom; provided that counsel for the
Indemnifying Party, who shall conduct the defense of such claim or any
litigation resulting therefrom, shall be approved by the Indemnified Party
(whose approval shall not unreasonably be withheld) and the Indemnified Party
may participate in such defense at such party’s expense (unless the Indemnified
Party shall have reasonably concluded that there may be a conflict of interest
between the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party in such action, in
which case the fees and expenses of counsel shall be at the expense of the
Indemnifying Party), and provided further that the failure of any Indemnified
Party to give notice as provided herein shall not relieve the Indemnifying
Party of its obligations under this Section 2(f) unless the
Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced thereby.  No Indemnifying Party, in the defense of any
such claim or litigation shall, except with the prior written consent of each
Indemnified Party, 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.  Each Indemnified Party shall furnish such
information regarding itself or the claim in question as an Indemnifying Party
may reasonably request in writing and as shall be reasonably required in
connection with the defense of such claim and litigation resulting therefrom.


 


(iv)          If the indemnification provided for in this Section 2(f) is
held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to an Indemnified
Party with respect to any Losses, then the Indemnifying Party, in lieu of
indemnifying such Indemnified Party hereunder, shall contribute to the amount
paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of such Losses in such
proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Indemnifying
Party on the one hand and of the Indemnified Party on the other in connection
with the statements or omissions (or alleged statements or omissions) which
resulted in such Losses, as well as any other relevant equitable
considerations.  The relative fault of
the Indemnifying Party and of the Indemnified Party shall be determined by
reference to, among other things, whether the untrue (or alleged untrue)
statement of a material fact or the omission (or alleged omission) to state a
material fact relates to information supplied by the Indemnifying Party or by
the Indemnified Party and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to
information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission; provided,
however, that the obligations of each of the Participating Holders
hereunder shall be several and not joint and shall be limited to an amount
equal to the net proceeds such Participating Holder receives in such
Registration.


 


12

















 


(v)           Subject to the limitations on the Holders’ liability
set forth in Section 2(f)(ii) and 2(f)(iv), the remedies provided for
in this Section 2(f) are not exclusive and shall not limit any rights
or remedies which may otherwise be available to any Indemnified Party at law or
equity.  The remedies shall remain in
full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of
such Holder or any Indemnified Party and survive the transfer of such
securities by such Holder.


 


(g)           Participating Holders.


 


(i)            Each of the Participating Holders shall furnish to the
Company such information regarding such Participating Holder and the distribution
proposed by such Holder as the Company may reasonably request in writing and as
shall be reasonably required in connection with any Registration, qualification
or compliance referred to in this Section 2.


 


(ii)           In the event that, either immediately prior to or
subsequent to the effectiveness of any Registration Statement, any
Participating Holder shall distribute Registrable Securities to its partners or
members, such Participating Holder shall so advise the Company and provide such
information as shall be necessary to permit an amendment to such Registration
Statement to provide information with respect to such partners or members, as
selling security holders.  Promptly
following receipt of such information, the Company shall file an appropriate
amendment to such Registration Statement reflecting the information so
provided.  Any incremental expense to the
Company resulting from such amendment shall be borne by such Participating
Holder.


 


(iii)          Each Holder agrees that at the time that such Holder
is a Participating Holder, upon receipt of any notice from the Company of the
happening of any event of the kind described in Section 2(e)(iv), such
Holder shall forthwith discontinue disposition of Registrable Securities
pursuant to the Registration Statement covering such Registrable Securities
until such Holder’s receipt of the copies of a supplemented or amended
Prospectus or Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or until such Holder is advised in
writing by the Company that the use of the Prospectus or Issuer Free Writing
Prospectus, as the case may be, may be resumed, and, if so directed by the
Company, such Holder shall deliver to the Company all copies, other than any
permanent file copies then in such Holder’s possession, of the most recent
Prospectus or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus covering such Registrable
Securities at the time of receipt of such notice.  If the Company shall give such notice, the
Company shall extend the period during which such Registration Statement shall
be maintained effective by the number of days during the period from and
including the date of the giving of notice pursuant to Section 2(e)(iv) to
the date when the Company shall make available to such Holder a copies of the
supplement or amended Prospectus or Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or is
advised in writing that the use of the Prospectus or Issuer Free Writing
Prospectus may be resumed.


 


(h)           Termination. 
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the
registration rights set forth in this Section 2 shall not be available, (i) with
respect to any Holder, if in the written opinion of counsel to the Company, all
of the Registrable 


 


13

















 


Securities
then owned by such Holder could be sold pursuant to Rule 144 without
limitation thereunder on volume or manner of sale or (ii) as to any
Holder, all of the Registrable Securities held by such Holder have been sold in
a Registration pursuant to the Securities Act or an exemption therefrom.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
indemnification provisions in Section 2(f) and Sections 3 and 4 shall
survive any termination of this Agreement.


 


(i)            Class B Common
Stock.  In connection with any Registered sale of Class B
Common Stock by a Holder that is subject to the Bank Holding Company Act of
1956, as amended (the “BHC Act”), unless prohibited by the BHC Act, the
Holder shall be entitled to surrender to the Company such shares of Class B
Common Stock to be sold in such Registration, and, upon surrender, the Company
shall issue to the purchasers in such Registered sale an equal number of shares
of Class A Common Stock.

(a)           Directly or Indirectly. 
Where any provision in this Agreement refers to action to be taken by

shall be applicable whether such action is taken directly or indirectly by such
Person.

(ii)           Any notice so addressed shall be deemed to be given:
if delivered by hand or facsimile, on the date of such delivery; if mailed by
overnight courier, on the first business day following the date of such
mailing; and if mailed by registered or certified mail, on the third business
day after the date of such mailing.


 


(d)           Reproduction of Documents. 
This Agreement and all documents relating thereto, including, without
limitation, any consents, waivers and modifications which may hereafter be
executed may be reproduced by the Holders by any photographic, photostatic,
microfilm, microcard, miniature photographic or other similar process and the
Holders may destroy any original document so reproduced.  The parties hereto agree and stipulate that
any such reproduction shall be admissible in evidence as the original itself in
any judicial or administrative proceeding (whether or not the original is in
existence and whether or not such reproduction was made by the Holders in the
regular course of business) and that any enlargement, facsimile or further
reproduction of such reproduction shall likewise be admissible in evidence.


 


(e)           Successors and Assigns. 
No party may assign or otherwise transfer any of their respective rights
or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the other
parties hereto; provided that the UCI Parties and Ramius shall be entitled to
assign the rights of the UCI Parties or Ramius as an Initiating Holder or
otherwise to a transferee of any of the UCI Parties’ beneficial ownership (as
defined in Rule 13d-3
of the rules and regulations promulgated under the Exchange Act ) of any
Registrable Securities in accordance with the Asset Exchange Agreement or the
Fourth Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement of Ramius and,
if requested by the UCI Holders in connection with any such assignment, Ramius
will make such assignment of rights at the request of the UCI Parties.  Any such transferee shall be deemed to be a
third party beneficiary of the transferring party’s rights hereunder upon
notice by the transferring UCI Party to the Company, entitled to exercise such
transferring party’s rights upon and following such notice.


 


(f)            Other Registration
Rights.   Except as provided in Section 4(e),
until the earlier of (i) three years following the date of this Agreement
and (ii) the date on which the Initiating Holders do not beneficially own
any Registrable Securities, the Company shall not grant any person other than
the parties to this Agreement as of the date hereof registration rights on
sales of capital stock of the Company (x) that would be superior to the
rights of the UCI Parties and Ramius (on behalf of the UCI Parties) hereunder
or (y) that would, as a result of any registered sale by the Company at
the request of such person (whether structured as a secondary sale or a primary
sale by the Company), subject any of the UCI Parties or Ramius (on the behalf
of the UCI Parties) to any underwriter lock-up period without such Holder’s
consent.


 


(g)           Entire Agreement; Amendment and
Waiver.  This Agreement constitutes the entire
understanding of the parties hereto relating to the subject matter hereof and
supersedes all prior understandings among such parties.  This Agreement may be amended, and the
observance of any term of this Agreement may be waived, with (and only with)
the written consent of the parties hereto, unless all rights under this
Agreement have been terminated with respect to a Holder.  Any amendment or waiver effected in
accordance with this Section 4(f) shall be binding upon each Holder
of Registrable Securities then outstanding (whether or not such Holder consented
to any such amendment or waiver).


 


16

















 


(h)           Severability. 
In the event that any part or parts of this Agreement shall be held
illegal or unenforceable by any court or administrative body of competent jurisdiction,
such determination shall not affect the remaining provisions of this Agreement
which shall remain in full force and effect.


 


(i)            Counterparts. 
This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts (including by
electronic transmission or facsimile), each of which shall be deemed an
original and all of which together shall be considered one and the same
agreement.
