NOW, THEREFORE, to implement the foregoing and in
consideration of the mutual agreements contained herein, the parties hereto
hereby agree as follows:


 


1.             Purchase
and Sale of Shares.


 


(a)      Purchase
of  Shares.  Subject to all of the terms and conditions
of this Agreement, the Purchaser hereby subscribes for and shall purchase, and
Holding shall sell to the Purchaser, the Common Shares at the purchase price
indicated for Common Shares on the signature page and the Preferred Shares at
the purchase price indicated for Preferred Shares on the signature page, both

to the contrary, Holding shall have no obligation to sell any Shares to (i) any
person who will not be an employee of Holding or any partnership, corporation,
or other organization or entity a majority of whose outstanding voting
interests are owned, directly or indirectly, by Holding (each, a “Subsidiary”) immediately following the
Closing at which such Shares are to be sold or (ii) any person who
is a resident of a jurisdiction in which the sale of Shares to such person
would constitute a violation of the securities, “blue sky” or other laws of
such jurisdiction.


 

















 


(b)      Consideration.  Subject to all of the terms and conditions
of this Agreement, the Purchaser shall deliver to Holding at the Closing (as
defined in Section 2(a) hereof) immediately available funds in the amount
of the aggregate purchase price set forth on the signature page hereof.


 


2.             Closing.

time) on June 30, 2003.


 


(b)      Delivery
by Holding.  At the Closing, Holding
shall deliver to the Purchaser stock certificates registered in such
Purchaser’s name and representing the Shares, which certificates shall bear the
legends set forth in Section 3(b).


 


(c)      Delivery
by the Purchaser.  At the Closing,
the Purchaser shall deliver to Holding the consideration referred to in
Section 1(b) hereof.


 


3.             Purchaser’s
Representations, Warranties and Covenants.


 


(a)      Investment
Intention.  The Purchaser represents
and warrants that the Purchaser is acquiring the Shares solely for the
Purchaser’s own account for investment and not with a view to or for sale in
connection with any distribution thereof. 
The Purchaser agrees that the Purchaser will not, directly or
indirectly, offer, transfer, sell, pledge, hypothecate or otherwise dispose of
any of the Shares (or solicit any offers to buy, purchase or otherwise acquire
or take a pledge of any Shares), except in compliance with the Securities Act
of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”),
and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) thereunder, and in
compliance with applicable state and foreign securities or “blue sky”
laws.  The Purchaser further
understands, acknowledges and agrees that none of the Shares may be
transferred, sold, pledged, hypothecated or otherwise disposed of unless the
provisions of (i) this Agreement, (ii) Section 2.1 of the
Stockholders Agreement, dated as of June 30, 2003, among Holding, Citigroup
Venture Capital Equity Partners, L.P., a limited partnership organized under
the laws of Delaware (together with its affiliates, “CVC”), Ontario Teachers’ Pension Plan
Board, a corporation without share capital organized under the laws of Ontario,
Canada (“OTPP”) and certain
other stockholders of Holding (as amended from time to time, the “Stockholders Agreement”) and (iii)
Section 5 of the Registration Rights Agreement, dated as of  June 30, 2003, among Holding, CVC, OTPP and
certain stockholders of Holding (as amended from time to time, the “Registration Rights Agreement”) shall
have been complied with or have expired.


 


(b)      Legends.  The Purchaser acknowledges that the
certificates representing the Shares shall bear the following legends or other
appropriate legends:

(i)            “THE SHARES EVIDENCED BY THIS
CERTIFICATE HAVE BEEN ACQUIRED FOR INVESTMENT AND HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED
UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “ACT”), AND MAY NOT BE
OFFERED, SOLD, ASSIGNED, TRANSFERRED, PLEDGED, ENCUMBERED OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED
OF (EACH, A “TRANSFER”) UNLESS AND UNTIL REGISTERED UNDER THE ACT AND ANY
APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL IS RECEIVED IN A FORM
SATISFACTORY TO THE ISSUER THAT SUCH REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED.”


 


(ii)           “THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS
CERTIFICATE ARE SUBJECT TO (A) THE TRANSFER AND OTHER PROVISIONS OF A
MANAGEMENT STOCK SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT, DATED AS OF JUNE 30, 2003; (B) THE
PROVISIONS OF A STOCKHOLDERS AGREEMENT, DATED AS OF JUNE 30, 2003, AMONG THE
ISSUER AND CERTAIN STOCKHOLDERS OF THE ISSUER (THE “STOCKHOLDERS AGREEMENT”)
AND (C) A REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT, DATED AS OF JUNE 30, 2003, AMONG THE
ISSUER AND CERTAIN STOCKHOLDERS OF THE ISSUER (THE “REGISTRATION RIGHTS
AGREEMENT”) AND NEITHER THIS CERTIFICATE NOR THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY IT ARE
TRANSFERABLE EXCEPT IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE PROVISIONS OF THE MANAGEMENT STOCK
SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT, THE STOCKHOLDERS AGREEMENT AND THE REGISTRATION RIGHTS
AGREEMENT, COPIES OF WHICH ARE AVAILABLE FOR INSPECTION AT THE OFFICES OF THE
ISSUER.  NO TRANSFER OF SUCH SHARES WILL
BE MADE ON THE BOOKS OF THE ISSUER, AND SUCH TRANSFER SHALL BE VOIDABLE, UNLESS
ACCOMPANIED BY EVIDENCE OF COMPLIANCE WITH THE TERMS OF SUCH AGREEMENTS.”


 


(iii)          “THE ISSUER WILL FURNISH WITHOUT
CHARGE TO EACH STOCKHOLDER WHO SO REQUESTS THE POWERS, DESIGNATIONS,
PREFERENCES AND RELATIVE, PARTICIPATING, OPTIONAL OR OTHER SPECIAL RIGHTS OF
EACH CLASS OR SERIES OF SHARES AUTHORIZED TO BE ISSUED AND THE QUALIFICATIONS,
LIMITATIONS OR RESTRICTIONS OF SUCH PREFERENCES AND/OR RIGHTS.”


 


(c)      Securities
Law Matters.  The Purchaser
acknowledges receipt of advice from Holding that (i) the Shares have not
been registered under the Securities Act based on an exemption provided under
the Securities Act or qualified under any state or foreign securities or “blue
sky” laws, (ii) it is not anticipated that there will be any public
market for the Shares, (iii) the Shares must be held indefinitely and
the Purchaser must continue to bear the economic risk of the investment in the
Shares unless the Shares are

subsequently
registered under the Securities Act and such state laws or an exemption from
registration is available, (iv) Rule 144 promulgated under the
Securities Act (“Rule 144”)
is not presently available with respect to the sales of the Shares, and Holding
has made no covenant to make Rule 144 available, (v) when and if
the Shares may be disposed of without registration in reliance upon Rule 144,
such disposition can be made only in accordance with the terms and conditions
of such Rule, this Agreement, the Stockholders Agreement and the Registration
Rights Agreement, (vi) Holding does not plan to file reports with
the Commission or make public information concerning Holding available unless
required to do so by law or in connection with its financing arrangements, (vii)
if the exemption afforded by Rule 144 is not available, sales of the Shares may
be difficult to effect because of the absence of public information concerning
Holding, (viii) a restrictive legend in the form heretofore set forth
shall be placed on the certificates representing the Shares and (ix) a
notation shall be made in the appropriate records of Holding indicating that
the Shares are subject to restrictions on transfer set forth in Section 2.1 of
the Stockholders Agreement and, if Holding should in the future engage the
services of a stock transfer agent, appropriate stop-transfer restrictions will
be issued to such transfer agent with respect to the Shares.


 


(d)      Compliance
with Rule 144.  When and if the
Shares may be disposed of without registration in reliance upon Rule 144, the
Purchaser shall transmit to Holding an executed copy of Form 144 (if required
by Rule 144) no later than the time such form is required to be transmitted to
the Commission for filing and such other documentation as Holding may
reasonably require to assure compliance with Rule 144 in connection with such
disposition.


 


(e)      Ability
to Bear Risk.  The Purchaser
represents and warrants that (i) the financial situation of the
Purchaser is such that the Purchaser can afford to bear the economic risk of
holding the Shares for an indefinite period and (ii) the Purchaser
can afford to suffer the complete loss of the Purchaser’s investment in the
Shares.


 


(f)       Accredited
Investor.  The Purchaser represents
and warrants that he qualifies as an “Accredited Investor” under Regulation D
promulgated under the Securities Act. 
The Purchaser agrees to furnish such documents and to comply with such
reasonable requests of Holding as may be necessary to substantiate the
Purchaser’s status as a qualifying investor in connection with this private
offering of Shares to the Purchaser. 
The Purchaser represents and warrants that all information contained in
such documents and any other written materials concerning the status of the
Purchaser furnished by the Purchaser to Holding in connection with such
requests will be true, complete and correct in all material respects.


 


(g)      Other Rights and Obligations.  The Purchaser shall be entitled to the
rights and subject to the obligations created under the Registration Rights
Agreement and the Stockholders Agreement, each to the extent set forth therein.
