                                     ARTICLE II

                AGREEMENTS IN RESPECT OF THE REGISTRABLE SECURITIES

              SECTION 2.01.  DEMAND REGISTRATIONS.  (a)  At any time after the
Company completes an initial public offering of Company Common Stock and subject
to limitations set forth below, TCW/Crescent Mezzanine Partners II, L.P.,
TCW/Crescent Mezzanine Trust II, TCW Leveraged Income Trust, L.P., and TCW
Leveraged Income Trust II, L.P. ("TCW/CRESCENT") shall have the right (a "DEMAND
RIGHT") to require the Company to file a Registration Statement under the
Securities Act in respect of Registrable Securities held by it.  If at the time
that a Demand Right is exercised by TCW/Crescent, the Company is not eligible to
use Form S-3, such Demand Right shall be a "LONG-FORM DEMAND RIGHT".  If at the
time that a Demand Right is exercised by TCW/Crescent, the Company is eligible
to use Form S-3, such Demand Right shall be a "SHORT-FORM DEMAND RIGHT".
TCW/Crescent shall have one Long-Form Demand Right and two Short-Form Demand
Rights.  (For purposes of this Section 2.01, the party exercising a Demand Right
is, where applicable, referred to as the "SELLING SHAREHOLDER").

              (b)    Each Long-Form Demand Right must be exercised in respect of
at least 2,019 Registrable Securities (subject to equitable adjustment in the
event of stock splits, stock dividends and similar events).  Each Short-Form
Demand Right must be exercised in respect of at least the lesser of (i) 1,000
Registrable Securities (subject to equitable adjustment in the event of stock
splits, stock dividends and similar events) and (ii) all Registrable Securities
then held by such Holder.  No Demand Right may be exercised within 6 months
after the date that the registration of Registrable Securities pursuant to a
prior exercise of a Demand Right was declared effective.

              (c)    As promptly as practicable, but in no event later than 45
days after the Company receives a written request from a Selling Shareholder
demanding that the Company so register the number of Registrable Securities
specified in such request, the Company shall file with the Commission and
thereafter use its reasonable best efforts to cause to be declared effective
promptly a Registration Statement (a "DEMAND REGISTRATION") providing for the
registration of all Registrable Securities as the Selling Shareholder shall have
demanded be registered.

              (d)    Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding,
the Company shall be entitled to postpone and delay, for a reasonable period of
time (the "BLACKOUT PERIOD"), not to exceed 60 days after the exercise of a
Demand Right in the case of subsections (i) and (iii) below, and not to exceed
six months after the exercise of a Demand Right in the case of subsection (ii)
below, the filing of any Demand Registration if:

                     (i)    the Company will be filing, within 30 days after the
       exercise of a Demand Right, a Registration Statement pertaining to a
       public offering of Company Common Stock in which the Holders are entitled
       to join pursuant to Section 2.02 hereof;

                     (ii)   the Company is subject to an existing contractual
       obligation to its underwriters not to engage in a public offering;

                     (iii)  the Company shall determine that any such filing or
       the offering of any Registrable Securities would


                                       3
<PAGE>


                            (A)    in the good faith judgment of the Board of
              Directors of the Company, impede, delay or otherwise interfere
              with any pending or contemplated financing, acquisition, corporate
              reorganization or other similar transaction involving the Company
              or its wholly owned subsidiaries;

                            (B)    based upon advice from the Company's
              investment banker or financial advisor, adversely affect any
              pending or contemplated offering or sale of any class of
              securities by the Company; or

                            (C)    in the good faith judgment of the Board of
              Directors of the Company, require disclosure of material nonpublic
              information which, if disclosed at such time, would be materially
              harmful to the interests of the Company and its shareholders;

PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the Blackout Period shall terminate upon the completion
or abandonment of the relevant securities offering or sale, the termination or
expiration of the existing contractual obligation not to engage in a public
offering, the completion or abandonment of the relevant financing, acquisition,
corporate reorganization or other similar transaction, such time as such Demand
Registration shall no longer affect the relevant pending or contemplated
offering or sale of securities by the Company, the public disclosure by the
Company or public admission by the Company of such material nonpublic
information or such time as such material nonpublic information shall be
publicly disclosed not in breach of confidentiality obligations, as the case may
be.  After the expiration of any Blackout Period and without any further request
from the Selling Shareholder the Company shall effect the filing of the relevant
Demand Registration and shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause any such
Demand Registration to be declared effective as promptly as practicable unless
the Selling Shareholder shall have, prior to the effective date of such Demand
Registration, withdrawn in writing the initial request, in which case such
withdrawn request shall not constitute a Demand Registration for purposes of
determining the number of Demand Registrations to which the Selling Shareholder
is entitled hereunder.  The Company may not exercise its right to postpone or
delay the filing of any Demand Registration pursuant to subsection 2.01(d)(i) or
(iii) more than twice during any 12 month period, or more than once during any
12-month period pursuant to subsection 2.01(f)(ii).

              (e)    Any request by a Selling Shareholder for a Demand
Registration which is subsequently withdrawn prior to such Demand Registration
becoming effective shall not constitute a Demand Registration for purposes of
determining the number of Demand Registrations to which the Selling Shareholder
is entitled if such withdrawal (i) is due to a material adverse change affecting
the Company, (ii) is due to a notification by the Company of an intention to
file a Registration Statement with respect to Company Common Stock or (iii) is
made in accordance with the penultimate sentence of Section 2.01(c).  In
addition, a Demand Registration shall not constitute a Demand Registration for
purposes of determining the number of Demand Registrations to which the Selling
Shareholder is entitled if (i) it does not become effective or (ii) if such
Selling Shareholder making a Demand Right has not been able to register and sell
at least 75% of the Registrable Securities initially requested to be registered
by such Selling Shareholder in such registration; provided, that TCW/Crescent
will pay all Registration Expenses in connection with any registration initiated
as a Demand Registration whether or not it becomes effective.

              (f)    The Company shall be entitled to include authorized but
unissued shares of Company Common Stock in any Demand Registration, subject to
Section 2.02.  Notwithstanding anything contained herein, if the lead
underwriter of an offering involving a Demand Registration delivers a written
opinion to the Selling Shareholder (a copy of which shall be provided to the
Company) that the number of shares of Company Common Stock included in such
Demand Registration would (i) materially and adversely affect the price of the
Company Common Stock to be offered or (ii) result in a greater amount of Company
Common Stock being offered than the market could reasonably absorb, then the
Company shall include in such Demand Registration (x) FIRST, the number of
Registrable Securities requested to be included in such registration by the
Selling Shareholder exercising his/its Demand Right that in the opinion of such
lead underwriter can be sold without the effects in the foregoing clauses (i)
and (ii), and (y) SECOND, other securities requested to be included in such
Demand Registration by the Company, any Holder or Additional Holder, pro rata
among the holders of such securities on the basis of the number of such
securities owned by each such holder.

              SECTION 2.02.  INCIDENTAL REGISTRATION.  (a)  If the Company
proposes to file a Registration Statement under the Securities Act with respect
to a Public Offering or, after a Public Offering with respect to any offering of
Company Common Stock (i) for its own account or (ii) for the account of any
Holder or each Additional Holder of Company Common Stock, the Company shall give
written notice of such proposed filing to each Holder and any Additional Holder
as soon as practicable (but in any event not less than 30 days before the
anticipated filing date), and such notice shall offer each Holder and each
Additional Holder the opportunity to register such number of Registrable
Securities as each Holder or Additional Holder shall request.  Upon the written
direction of a Holder or an Additional Holder, given within 20 days following
the receipt by the Holder or Additional Holder of any such written notice (which
direction shall specify the number of Registrable Securities intended to be
disposed of by the Holder or Additional Holder), the Company shall include in
such Registration Statement (an "INCIDENTAL REGISTRATION") such number of
Registrable Securities as shall be set forth in such written direction.
Notwithstanding anything contained herein, if the lead underwriter of an
offering involving an Incidental Registration delivers a written opinion to the
Company (a copy of which shall be provided to each Holder and each Additional
Holder requesting Incidental Registration rights hereunder) that the number of
shares of Company Common Stock included in such Incidental Registration would
(i) materially and adversely affect the price of the Company Common Stock to be
offered or (ii) result in a greater amount of Company Common Stock being offered
than the market could reasonably absorb, then the number of Registrable
Securities to be registered by any Holder or Additional Holder requesting
Incidental Registration rights hereunder, shall be reduced in proportion to such
Holder's and Additional Holder's respective pro rata ownership interest in the
Company at the time immediately preceding such request for Incidental
Registration to the extent that, in the lead underwriter's opinion, neither of
the effects in the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii) would result from the number
of shares of Company Common Stock included in such Incidental Registration.

              SECTION 2.03.  REGISTRATION PROCEDURES. (a)   In connection with
each Registration, and in accordance with the intended method or methods of
distribution of the Company Common Stock as described in such Registration, the
Company shall, as soon as reasonably practicable (and, in any event, subject to
the terms of this Agreement, at or before the time required by applicable laws
and regulations):


                                       5
<PAGE>


              (i)    prepare and file with the Commission a Registration
       Statement with respect to such Registrable Securities, which, if the
       method of distribution is by means of an underwriting, shall be in form
       and substance reasonably acceptable to the underwriters for such
       underwriting, and use its reasonable best efforts to cause such
       Registration Statement to become and remain effective for the period of
       the distribution contemplated thereby; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the
       Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause a Registration
       Statement on Form S-3 to remain effective until the earlier of (i) the
       disposition of all the Registrable Securities registered thereunder, and
       (ii) the expiration of the 90-day period commencing on the first day of
       the effectiveness of such Registration;

              (ii)   prepare and file with the Commission such amendments and
       supplements to such Registration Statement and the Prospectus used in
       connection therewith as may be necessary to comply with the provisions of
       the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all Registrable
       Securities covered by such Registration Statement;

              (iii)  furnish to each Holder and Additional Holder such numbers
       of copies of the Registration Statement and the Prospectus included
       therein (including each preliminary prospectus and any amendments or
       supplements thereto), in conformity with the requirements of the
       Securities Act and such other documents and information as it may
       reasonably request;

              (iv)   (A) make available for inspection by each Holder or
       Additional Holder and its counsel and financial advisors such financial
       and other information as shall be reasonably requested by them, and
       provide such Holder or Additional Holder and its counsel and financial
       advisors the opportunity to discuss the business affairs of the Company
       with its principal executives and accountants, for the purposes of
       enabling each Holder or Additional Holder to exercise its due diligence
       responsibilities under the Securities Act and (B) before the Registration
       Statement (and any amendments or supplements thereto) is filed, provide
       copies thereof to each Holder and Additional Holder and its counsel and
       provide them with adequate time to review and comment thereon;

              (v)    use its reasonable best efforts to register or qualify the
       Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement under such
       other securities or blue sky laws of any jurisdiction within the United
       States and Puerto Rico as shall be reasonably appropriate for the
       distribution of the Registrable Securities covered by the Registration
       Statement; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the Company shall not be required in
       connection therewith or as a condition thereto to qualify to do business
       in or to file a general consent to service of process in any jurisdiction
       wherein it would not but for the requirements of this paragraph (v) be
       obligated to do so; and PROVIDED, FURTHER, that the Company shall not be
       required to qualify such Registrable Securities in any jurisdiction in
       which the securities regulatory authority requires that a Holder or
       Additional Holder submit any of its Registrable Securities to the terms,
       provisions and restrictions of any escrow, lockup or similar agreement(s)
       for consent to sell Registrable Securities in such jurisdiction unless
       such Holder or Additional Holder agrees to do so;

              (vi)   promptly notify each Holder and Additional Holder, at any
       time when a Prospectus relating to the Registrable Securities is required
       to be delivered under the

<PAGE>


       Securities Act, of the happening of any event as a result of which
       the Prospectus included in such Registration Statement, as then in
       effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to
       state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to
       make the statements therein not misleading in light of the circumstances
       under which they were made, and at the request of a Holder or Additional
       Holder, promptly prepare and furnish to such Holder or Additional Holder
       a reasonable number of copies of a supplement to or an amendment of such
       Prospectus as may be necessary so that, as thereafter delivered to the
       purchasers of such securities, such Prospectus shall not include 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 in light of the circumstances under which they
       were made;

              (vii)  enter into customary agreements (including if the method of
       distribution is by means of an underwriting, an underwriting agreement in
       customary form) and take such other actions as are reasonably required in
       order to expedite or facilitate the disposition of the Registrable
       Securities to be so included in the Registration Statement;

              (viii) otherwise use its reasonable best efforts to comply with
       all applicable rules and regulations of the Commission, and make
       available to its security holders, as soon as reasonably practicable, but
       not later than 18 months after the effective date of the Registration
       Statement, an earnings statement covering the period of at least 12
       months beginning with the first full month after the effective date of
       such Registration Statement, which earnings statements shall satisfy the
       provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act;

              (ix)   file with any securities exchange where the Registrable
       Securities are to be listed, the required number of Prospectuses pursuant
       to the rules and regulations of such exchange as are from time to time in
       effect;

              (x)    permit any Holder or Additional Holder that might (in its
       reasonable judgment), be deemed to be an underwriter or a controlling
       person of the Company, to participate in the preparation of the
       Registration Statement and to require the insertion therein of material,
       furnished to the Company in writing, which in the reasonable judgment of
       such Holder or Additional Holder and its counsel should be included;

              (xi)   obtain a cold comfort letter from the Company's independent
       public accountants in customary form and covering such matters of the
       type customarily covered by cold comfort letters, which letter shall be

       cause such cold comfort letter to also be addressed to the Holders and
       Additional Holders participating in the offering associated with the
       Registration Statement;

              (xii)  obtain an opinion from the Company's outside counsel in
       customary form and covering such matters of the type customarily covered

              (b)    Each Holder or Additional Holder requesting Incidental
Registration and each Selling Shareholder requesting Demand Registration shall
furnish to the Company in writing such information regarding such Holder,
Additional Holder or Selling Shareholder and its intended method of distribution
of the Registrable Securities as the Company may from time to time reasonably
request in writing, but only to the extent that such information is required in
order for the Company to comply with its obligations under all applicable
securities and other laws and to ensure that the Prospectus relating to such
Registrable Securities conforms to the applicable requirements of the Securities
Act and the rules and regulations thereunder.  Each Holder, Additional Holder or
Selling Shareholder shall use reasonable best efforts to notify the Company as
promptly as practicable of any inaccuracy or change in information previously
furnished by such Holder, Additional Holder or Selling Shareholder, as
applicable, to the Company or of the occurrence of any event, in either case as
a result of which any Prospectus relating to the Registrable Securities contains
or would contain an untrue statement of a material fact regarding such Holder,
Additional Holder or Selling Shareholder, as applicable, or its intended method
of distribution of such Registrable Securities or omits to state any material
fact regarding such Holder, Additional Holder or Selling Shareholder, as
applicable, or its intended method of distribution of such Registrable
Securities required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements
therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not
misleading, and promptly furnish to the Company any additional information
required to correct and update any previously furnished information, or required
so that such prospectus shall not contain, with respect to such Holder,
Additional Holder or Selling Shareholder, as applicable, or the intended method
of distribution of the Registrable Securities, an untrue satement of a material
fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary

they were made, not misleading.

offering unless the Selling Shareholder, or in the case of an Incidental
Registration under Section 2.02, a Holder or Additional Holder, accepts the
terms of the underwriting of such offering that have been reasonably agreed
upon between the Company and the underwriters selected by the Company.

              SECTION 2.06.  Indemnification; Contribution.

              (a)    INDEMNIFICATION BY THE COMPANY.  The Company shall, and it
hereby agrees to, indemnify and hold harmless each Holder or Additional Holder,
each of their respective officers, directors, agents, and employees, and each
Person, if any, who controls such Holder or Additional Holder, within the
meaning of the Securities Act, against any losses, claims, damages or
liabilities ("LOSSES") to which such Holder or Additional Holder or their
respective officers, directors, agents, employees, and controlling Persons, may
become subject, insofar as such Losses (or actions, proceedings or
investigations in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon an untrue
statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in (i) any
Registration Statement or Prospectus contained therein or (ii) any application
or other document or communication (in this Section 2.06 collectively, an
"APPLICATION") executed by or on behalf of the Company or based upon written
information furnished by or on behalf of the Company and filed in any
jurisdiction in order to qualify any securities covered by such registration
statement under the "blue sky" or securities laws thereof, or (iii) arise out of
or are based upon 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; and the Company shall, and it hereby agrees to, reimburse each
Holder or Additional Holder or their respective agents or underwriters for any
legal or other out-of-pocket expenses reasonably incurred by them (but not in
excess of expenses incurred in respect of one counsel for all of them unless
there is an actual conflict of interest between any indemnified parties, which
indemnified parties may be represented by separate counsel) in connection with
investigating or defending any such action, proceeding or investigation;
PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the indemnity agreement contained in this Section
2.06(a) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such Loss, action,
proceeding or investigation if such settlement is effected without the consent
of the Company which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld; PROVIDED,
FURTHER, that the Company shall not be liable to any such Person in any such
case to the extent that any such Loss or expense arises out of or is based upon
an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission
made in such Registration Statement or Prospectus contained therein, in reliance
upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by such
Holder or Additional Holder or any agent, underwriter or representative of such
Holder or Additional Holder expressly for use therein, or by the failure of such
Holder or Additional Holder to furnish the Company, upon request, with the
information required by Section 2.03(b) hereof with respect to such Holder or
Additional Holder (or agent, underwriter or representative of such Holder or
Additional Holder) or the intended method of distribution by such Holder or
Additional Holder, that is the subject of the untrue statement or omission or,
in the case of such agent or underwriter, if the Company shall sustain the
burden of proving that such agent or underwriter sold securities to the person
alleging such Loss without sending or giving, at or prior to the written
confirmation of such sale, a copy of the applicable Prospectus (excluding any
documents incorporated by reference therein) or of the applicable Prospectus, as
then amended or supplemented (excluding any documents incorporated by reference
therein) if the Company had previously furnished copies thereof to such agent or
underwriter, and such Prospectus corrected


                                       9
<PAGE>


such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged
omission made in such Registration.

              (b)    INDEMNIFICATION BY THE HOLDERS AND ANY AGENT OR
UNDERWRITERS.  Each  Holder or Additional Holder requesting or joining in a
Registration shall severally and not jointly indemnify and hold harmless the
Company, each of its directors and officers, and each Person, if any, who
controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act, against any
Losses, joint or several, to which the Company or any such director, officer, or
controlling Person, may become subject, under the Securities Act or otherwise,
and shall reimburse any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by the
Company or any such director, officer, controlling person, agent or underwriter
(but not in excess of expenses incurred in respect of one counsel for all of
them unless there is an actual conflict of interest between any indemnified
parties, which indemnified parties may be represented by separate counsel) in
connection with investigating or defending any such Loss or action, proceeding
or investigation insofar as such Losses (or actions, proceedings or
investigations in respect thereof) or expenses arise out of or are based upon
any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained
in such Registration Statement on the effective date thereof (including any
Prospectus filed under Rule 424 under the Securities Act or any amendments or
supplements thereto) or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged
omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or
necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, in each case to the
extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or alleged untrue
statement or omission or alleged omission (i) was made in such Registration
Statement or Prospectus, or amendments or supplements thereto, in reliance upon
and in conformity with written information furnished by or on behalf of such
Holder or additional Holder expressly for use in connection with such
Registration Statement or Prospectus, or (ii) resulted from the failure of such
Holder or Additional Holders to furnish the Company, upon request, with the
information required by Section 2.03(b) hereof, with respect to such Holder or
Additional Holder or agent, underwriter or representative of such Holder or
Additional Holder, or the intended method of distribution by such Holder or
Additional Holder, that is the subject of the untrue statement or omission;
PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the indemnity agreement contained in this
Section 2.06(b) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such Loss,
action, proceeding or investigation if such settlement is effected without the
consent of such Holder or Additional Holder  which consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld and in no event shall any Holder or Additional Holder be
liable under this Section 2.05(b) for an amount in excess of the gross proceeds
received by such Holder or Additional Holder from the sale of securities
pursuant to such Registration.

              (c)    NOTICE OF CLAIMS, ETC.  Promptly after receipt by an
indemnified party under subsection (a) or (b) above of written notice of the
commencement of any action or proceeding for which indemnification under
subsection (a) or (b) may be requested, such indemnified party shall, without
regard to whether a claim in respect thereof is to be made against an
indemnifying party pursuant to the indemnification provisions of, or as
contemplated by, this Section 2.06, notify such indemnifying party in writing of
the commencement of such action or proceeding; but the omission so to notify the
indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability which it may have to
any indemnified party in respect of such action or proceeding on account of the
indemnification provisions of or contemplated by Section 2.06(a) or 2.06(b)
hereof, except to the extent the indemnifying party was prejudiced by such
failure of the indemnified party to give such notice, and in no event shall such
omission relieve the indemnifying party from any other liability it may have


                                       10
<PAGE>


to such indemnified party.  In case any such action or proceeding shall be
brought against any indemnified party and it shall notify an indemnifying
party of the commencement thereof, such indemnifying party shall be entitled
to participate therein and, to the extent that it shall determine, jointly
with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, to assume the defense
thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party, and,
after notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its
election so to assume the defense thereof, such indemnifying party shall not
be liable to such indemnified party for any legal or any other expenses
subsequently incurred by such indemnified party, in connection with the
defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation (unless such
indemnified party reasonably objects to such assumption on the grounds that
there are likely defenses available to it which are different from and
potentially inconsistent with the defenses aailable to such indemnifying
party, in which event the indemnified party shall have the right to control
its defense and shall be reimbursed by the indemnifying party for the
expenses incurred in connection with retaining separate counsel).  If the
indemnifying party is not entitled to, or elects not to, assume the defense
of a claim, it will not be obligated to pay the fees and expenses of more
than one counsel (in addition to local counsel) for all indemnified parties
with respect to such claim, unless counsel retained by the indemnified party
reasonably concludes that it is not able to represent any other indemnified
party as a result of an actual or likely potential conflict of interest, in
which event each such indemnified party shall have the right to retain
separate counsel.  The indemnifying party will not be subject to any
liability for any settlement made without its consent, which consent shall
not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.  No indemnifying party will consent
to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement agreement 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 of such claim or litigation.

              (d)    CONTRIBUTION.  Each Holder and Additional Holder and the
Company agrees that if, for any reason, the indemnification provisions
contemplated by Section 2.06(a) or Section 2.06(b) hereof are unavailable to
or are insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party in respect of any
Losses (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof) referred to therein,
then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable
by such indemnified party as a result of such Losses (or actions or
proceedings in respect thereof) in such proportion as is appropriate to
reflect the relative fault of, and benefits derived by, the indemnifying
party and the indemnified party, as well as any other relevant equitable
considerations.  The relative fault of such indemnifying party and
indemnified party shall be determined by reference to, among other things,
whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission
or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied
by such indemnifying party or by such indemnified party, and the parties'
relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct
or prevent such statement or omission. The parties hereto agree that it would
not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 2.06(d)
were determined (i) by pro rata allocation (even if the Holders or any agents
for, or underwriters of, the Registrable Securities, or all of them, were
treated as one entity for such purpose); or (ii) by any other method of
allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations
referred to in this Section 2.06(d).  The amount paid or payable by an
indemnified party as a result of the Losses (or actions or proceedings in
respect thereof) referred to above shall be deemed to include (subject to the
limitations set forth in Section 2.06(c) hereof) any legal or other fees or
expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with
investigating or defending any such action, proceeding or claim. No person
guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f)
of the

                                       11
<PAGE>


Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not
guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

              (e)    BENEFICIARIES OF INDEMNIFICATION.  The obligations of the
Company under this Section 2.06 shall be in addition to any liability that it
may otherwise have and shall apply, upon the same terms and conditions, to each
Holder or Additional Holder and each agent and underwriter of the Registrable
Securities and each person, if any, who controls any Holder or Additional Holder
or any such agent or underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act; and
the obligations of each Holder or Additional Holder and any agents or
underwriters contemplated by this Section 2.06 shall be in addition to any
liability that each Holder or Additional Holder or its respective agent or
underwriter may otherwise have and shall apply, upon the same terms and
conditions, to each officer and director of the Company (including any person
who, with his consent, is named in any Registration Statement as about to become
a director of the Company) and to each person, if any, who controls the Company
within the meaning of the Securities Act.

              SECTION 2.07.  TERMINATION OF REGISTRATION RIGHTS.
Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement to the contrary, the
registration rights granted pursuant to this Agreement shall terminate with
respect to each Holder or Additional Holder on the earlier of: (i) the date that
all Registrable Securities held by such Holder or Additional Holder are legally
permitted to be sold within a three month period under Rule 144 under the
Securities Act (or other similar rule), regardless of whether at the time of
such sales any Holder or Additional Holder is entitled to rely upon paragraph
(k) of Rule 144, provided that each Holder or Additional Holder is then entitled
to rely on Rule 144 with respect to all such Registrable Securities; or (ii) on
the tenth anniversary of the date of this Agreement, regardless of the
tradeability of any Registrable Securities held by any Holder or Additional
Holder.

              SECTION 2.08.  UNDERWRITERS.  If any of the Registrable Securities
are to be sold pursuant to an underwritten offering, the investment banker or
bankers and the managing underwriter or underwriters thereof shall be selected
by the Company after consultation with each Holder or Additional Holder
participating in such Registration, PROVIDED, that such managing underwriter or
underwriters must be of recognized national standing.

              SECTION 2.09.  LOCKUP.  Each Holder or Additional Holder shall, in
connection with any Registration of the Company's securities, upon the request
of the underwriters managing any underwritten offering of the Company's
securities, agree in writing not to effect any sale, disposition or distribution
of any Registrable Securities (other than that included in the Registration or,
if the effectiveness of such Registration is after one year after the date of
this Agreement, sales in accordance with Rule 144 under the Securities Act and
within the volume limitation of Rule 144(e) under the Securities Act, regardless
of whether at the time of such sales each Holder or Additional Holder is
entitled to rely upon paragraph (k) of Rule 144) without the prior written
consent of the Company or such underwriters, as the case may be, for such period
of time not to exceed 180 days from the effective date of such Registration as
the underwriters may specify; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that all executive officers and
directors of the Company shall also have agreed not to effect any sale,
disposition or distribution of any Registrable Securities for a like period of
time pursuant to the terms set forth in this Section 2.09.

              SECTION 2.10.  LEGENDS.  (a)  Stop transfer restrictions will be
given to the Company's transfer agent(s) with respect to the Registrable
Securities and there will be placed on the certificate or instruments
representing the Registrable Securities, and on any certificate or instrument
delivered in substitution or exchange therefor, a legend stating in substance:

              "THE SECURITIES EVIDENCED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN
       REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED.  NO
       REGISTRATION OF TRANSFER OF SUCH SECURITIES WILL BE MADE ON THE
       BOOKS OF THE ISSUER UNLESS SUCH TRANSFER IS MADE IN CONNECTION
       WITH AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER SUCH ACT OR
       PURSUANT TO AN EXEMPTION FROM THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF
       SUCH ACT OR SUCH ACT DOES NOT APPLY.

              THE SECURITIES EVIDENCED BY THIS CERTIFICATE ARE SUBJECT TO
       CERTAIN RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER AS SET FORTH IN AN AMENDED AND
       RESTATED SHAREHOLDERS' AGREEMENT, DATED AS OF JULY 13, 1999, AS
       IT MAY BE AMENDED FROM TIME TO TIME, A COPY OF WHICH IS ON FILE AT
       THE PRINCIPAL EXECUTIVE OFFICES OF THE ISSUER.  NO REGISTRATION OF
       TRANSFER OF SUCH SECURITIES WILL BE MADE ON THE BOOKS OF THE
       ISSUER UNLESS AND UNTIL SUCH RESTRICTIONS SHALL HAVE BEEN COMPLIED
       WITH."

              (b)    The Company hereby agrees that it will cause stop transfer
restrictions to be released with respect to any Registrable Securities that are
(i) transferred pursuant to an effective Registration Statement under the
Securities Act, (ii) transferred pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act,
(iii) transferred pursuant to another exemption from the registration
requirements of the Securities Act, or (iv) freely transferable pursuant to Rule
144(k); PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that in the case of any transfer pursuant to clause
(ii) or (iii) above, the request for transfer is accompanied by a written
statement signed by each Holder or Additional Holder confirming compliance with
the requirements of the relevant exemption from registration; and PROVIDED,
FURTHER, that in the case of any transfer pursuant to clause (iii) above, the
Company shall have received a written opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory
to the Company that such registration is not required.  The Company further
agrees that it will cause the legend described in subsection (a) of this Section
2.10 to be removed in the event of any transfer as provided in clause (i) or
(ii) above.

              SECTION 2.11.  ASSIGNMENT OF REGISTRATION RIGHTS.  The rights to
cause the Company to register Registrable Securities pursuant to this Section 2
may be assigned by a Holder or Additional Holder to a transferee or assignee,
provided that, the Company is, within a reasonable time after such transfer,
furnished with written notice of the name and address of such transferee or
assignee and the Registrable Securities with respect to which such registration
rights are being assigned; and, provided further, that such assignment shall be
effective only if immediately following such transfer the further disposition of
such Registrable Securities by the transferee or assignee is restricted under
the Securities Act.

              SECTION 2.12.  PUBLIC INFORMATION.  The Company covenants to make
available "adequate current public information" concerning the Company within
the meaning of Rule 144(c) under the Securities Act.

              SECTION 2.13.  REGISTRATION RIGHTS OF OTHERS.  The Company
represents and warrants to TCW/Crescent that the only agreements granting any
Company shareholder registration rights as of the date hereof are this
Agreement, that certain Registration Rights Agreement as of even date herewith,
among the Company and certain Purchasers named therein, and that certain
Registration Rights Agreement, dated as of December 15, 1998 among the Company,
Circuit Holdings, LLC and Lewis O. Coley, III.  The Company covenants and agrees
that so long as TCW/Crescent holds any Warrants or Warrants Shares in respect of
which any registration rights provided for in Article II remain in effect, the
company will not, directly or indirectly, grant to any Person, or agree to or
otherwise become obligated in respect of, any registration rights with priority
over the registration rights of TCW/Crescent pursuant to Article II (i.e., in
the event that the underwriter limits the number of Warrants or Warrant Shares
to be included in a Demand Registration or Incidental Registration, such limit
will apply pro rata to all Persons participating as sellers in such
registration).

                                    ARTICLE III

                                   MISCELLANEOUS

shall make, or cause to be made, any press release or public announcement in
respect of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby or
otherwise communicate with any news media without the prior written consent

of law or public policy, all other terms and provisions of this Agreement shall

materially adverse to any party.  Upon such determination that any term or other
provision is invalid, illegal, or incapable of being enforced, the parties
hereto shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect

except as otherwise expressly provided herein including the Original
Registration Rights Agreement.

              SECTION 3.07.  NO THIRD PARTY BENEFICIARY.  This Agreement shall
be binding upon and inure solely to the benefit of the parties hereto and their
respective successors and nothing herein, express or implied, is intended to or
shall confer upon any other Person (including any Additional Holder) any legal
or equitable right, benefit or remedy of any nature whatsoever under or by
reason of this Agreement.

              SECTION 3.08.  AMENDMENT.  This Agreement may not be amended or

Company and each Holder  or (b) by a waiver in accordance with Section 3.09 of
this Agreement.

              SECTION 3.09.  WAIVER.  Any party to this Agreement may (a) extend
the time for the performance of any obligations or other acts of any other party

<PAGE>


be valid against each Holder or Additional Holder only if set forth in an
instrument in writing signed by such Holder or Additional Holder.  Any waiver
of any term or condition shall not be construed as a waiver of any subsequent
breach or a subsequent waiver of the same term or condition, or as a waiver
of any other term or condition, of this Agreement.  The failure of any party
to assert any of its rights hereunder shall not constitute a waiver of any of
such rights.

any of the foregoing, and shall survive the transfer of any Registrable
Securities by each Holder or Additional Holder, and the indemnification and
