                                  DRESSER, INC.

                            SPONSOR RIGHTS AGREEMENT

     This Sponsor Rights Agreement (this "Agreement") is made and entered into
as of April 10, 2001 by and among Dresser, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the
"Company"), DEG Acquisitions, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the
"LLC"), First Reserve Fund VIII, L P ("Fund VIII"), First Reserve Fund IX, L.P.
("Fund IX" and, together with Fund VIII, "FRC"), Odyssey Investment Partners
Fund, LP ("OIPF"), Odyssey Coinvestors, LLC ("OC") and DI Coinvestment, LLC
(together with OC, "Co-Investors" and, together with OIPF, "Odyssey"). Each of
Odyssey and FRC is referred to herein as a Sponsor, and together, as "Sponsors."

                                    RECITALS

     A. The LLC is a single purpose vehicle that was formed to purchase from the
Company, and the Company has sold to the LLC, an aggregate of 9,700,000 shares
of the Company's Class A Common Stock, par value $0.001 per share, and 300,000
shares of the Company's Class B Common Stock, par value $0.001 (collectively,
the "Common Stock").

     B. FRC owns a seventy-five percent interest in the LLC, and Odyssey owns a
twenty-five percent interest in the LLC.

     C. The LLC and the Company are parties to that certain Investor Rights
Agreement (the "Investor Rights Agreement"), dated as of the date hereof, among
the Company, the LLC, Dresser Industries, Inc., a Delaware corporation and
wholly owned subsidiary of Halliburton Company (such wholly owned subsidiary
being referred to herein as "Halliburton") (collectively, with any other
stockholders of the Company signatory to the Investor Rights Agreement and
identified as such, the "Employee Stockholders"). The Sponsors and any other
person made a party to this Agreement under the terms hereof, and the Employee
Stockholders, the LLC, Halliburton and any other party to the Investor Rights
Agreement, are collectively referred to herein as the "Stockholders."

     D. The parties to this Agreement desire to set forth certain understandings
with respect to their direct and indirect interests in the Company. In
particular, the parties wish to clarify certain rights of the Sponsors with
respect to the Company that, without this Agreement, the Sponsors would have
only indirectly through their interests in the LLC. Nothing in this Agreement is
intended to conflict with or supersede the provisions of the Investor Rights
Agreement, unless specifically set forth herein.

     E. Wherever the terms "owned by," "held by," "owned of record," "held of
record" or similar phrases are used in this Agreement to refer to a Sponsor's
interest in the Company, such term will be deemed to include such Sponsor's
ownership of shares of Common Stock, whether directly or indirectly through one
or more intermediaries (in which case the Sponsor's ownership of the shares of
Common Stock held by such intermediary shall be in proportion to such Sponsor's
direct or indirect ownership interest in such intermediary). For example,

<PAGE>   2

Schedule A sets forth the number of shares of Common Stock owned by each Sponsor
on the date hereof, based on their respective proportionate interests in the
shares of Common Stock held of record by the LLC on the date hereof.

     F. Wherever a provision of this Agreement addresses the acquisition,
transfer, exercise of rights or similar actions in respect of shares of Common
Stock, that provision will be deemed to apply to any action taken directly or
indirectly, including through the acquisition, transfer, exercise of rights or
similar matters in respect of the interests of one or more intermediaries
(including the LLC) holding shares of Common Stock.

     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing recitals, the mutual
promises hereinafter set forth, and other good and valuable consideration, the
receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto
agree as follows:

1.   FIDUCIARY DUTY.

     1.1 Potential Conflicts. Each Stockholder and the Company acknowledges
that:

         (a) The LLC, the Sponsors, and/or one or more of their respective
subsidiaries (other than the Company and its Subsidiaries) or other affiliates
or members (other than the Company, its subsidiaries and their respective
officers and directors not nominated, directly or indirectly, by the LLC or the
Sponsors) (each such person is referred to herein as an "Interested Party") may
engage in material business transactions with the Company, subject to the
provisions of Section 1.6 herein.

         (b) Directors, officers, and employees of an Interested Party may serve
as directors or officers of the Company.

         (c) One or more Interested Parties may now or in the future engage in
the same or similar lines of business or other business activities as those in
which the Company may engage.

         (d) One or more Interested Parties may exercise a controlling influence
over business, policy and strategic decisions of the Company.

     1.2. Scope of Business of the Company and its Controlled Affiliates. The
Company hereby renounces any interest or expectancy in any business opportunity
that does not consist exclusively of a portion or all of the Designated
Business. For this purpose, the Designated Business consists of the businesses
conducted by the Company and its controlled affiliates as described in that
certain Offering Memorandum dated April 3, 2001 prepared and distributed by the
Company.

     1.3 Corporate Opportunities. The Company and each Stockholder recognize
that the Interested Parties and individuals who are directors, officers and
employees of one or more Interested Parties and are designated by the Interested
Parties to serve as directors and officers of the Company and its controlled
affiliates ("Designees") (a) participate and will continue to participate,
directly and through affiliates, in businesses that compete with, or are
substantially the same as, the Designated Business, (b) may have interests in,
participate with, and serve as

                                       2
<PAGE>   3

directors, officers or employees of other persons engaged in businesses that
compete with, or are substantially the same as, the Designated Business and (c)
may develop business opportunities for the Interested Parties. The Company and
each Stockholder (i) acknowledge and agree that neither the Interested Parties
nor their Designees shall be restricted or prohibited by the relationship
between the Interested Parties and the Designees, on the one hand, and the
Company, on the other, or by service of a Designee as a director or officer of
the Company from engaging in any businesses that compete with, or are
substantially the same as, the Designated Business or in any other business,
regardless of whether such business activity is in direct or indirect
competition with the Designated Business of the Company, (ii) acknowledge and
agree that, as long as their activities are conducted in accordance with the
standards set forth in Section 1.4 hereof, neither any Interested Party nor any
Designee shall have any obligation to offer the Company or any of its controlled
affiliates any business opportunity, (iii) renounce any interest or expectancy
in any business opportunity pursued by any Interested Party in accordance with
the standards set forth in Section 1.4 hereof and (iv) waive any claim that any
business opportunity pursued by an Interested Party or any Designee in
accordance with the standards set forth in Section 1.4 hereof constitutes a
corporate opportunity of the Company or any of its controlled affiliates that
should have been presented to the Company.

     1.4 Standards for Separate Conduct of Business. The Interested Parties and
their Designees shall be deemed to meet the standards set forth in this Section
1.4 if the business of the Interested Parties is conducted through the use of
their own personnel and assets and not with the substantial involvement of any
personnel (other than the Designees) or material amount of assets of the
Company. Without limiting the foregoing, such standards will be met with respect
to a business opportunity if (a) it is identified by or presented to personnel
of an Interested Party or a Designee and developed and pursued substantially
through the use of the personnel (including any Designee) and assets of one or
more Interested Parties (and not based on confidential information disclosed by
or on behalf of the Company in or during the course of a Designee's relationship
with the Company), and (b) it did not come to the attention of such Designee
solely in, and as a direct result of, is or her capacity as a director or
officer of the Company; provided, however, that (i) if such opportunity is
separately identified by an Interested Party or separately presented to an
Interested Party other than such Designee, the Interested Parties shall be free
to pursue such opportunity even if it also came to the Designee's attention
solely as a result of and in his or her capacity as a director or officer of the
Company and (ii) if such opportunity is presented to or identified by a Designee
other than solely as a result of and in his or her capacity as a director or
officer of the Company, the Interested Parties shall be free to pursue such
opportunity even if it also came to the Designee's attention as a result of and
in his or her capacity as a director or officer of the Company. Nothing in this
Agreement shall be interpreted to allow a Designee to pursue a business
opportunity in the Designated Business solely for his or her personal benefit
(as opposed to the benefit of an Interested Party).

     1.5 Competing Activities. Except as otherwise expressly provided in an
agreement between the Company and an Interested Party, any Interested Party and
its officers, directors, agents, shareholders, members, partners, affiliates and
subsidiaries, may engage or invest independently or with others, in any business
activity of any type or description, including without limitation those that
might be the same as or similar to the Designated Business and without limiting
the foregoing, the Stockholders acknowledge that:

                                       3
<PAGE>   4

     (a) (i) First Reserve Corporation, a Delaware corporation ("First
Reserve"), manages each of First Reserve Fund VIII, L.P., a Delaware limited
partnership and First Reserve Fund IX, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership,
which are members of the LLC, and manages other investment limited partnerships,
and

         (ii) Odyssey Investment Partners, LLC ("Odyssey") manages Odyssey
Investment Partners Fund, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership, Odyssey
Coinvestors, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, and DI Coinvestment,
LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, which are members of the LLC, and
manages other investment limited partnerships,

all of which may from time to time compete, directly or indirectly, with the
Company, and that such Interested Parties may in their sole discretion pursue
such competing businesses without disclosure of such competition to the
Company); and

     (b) neither the Company, any subsidiary of the Company, nor any other
stockholder of the Company shall have any right in or to such business
activities or ventures or to receive or share in any income or proceeds derived
therefrom.

     1.6 Transactions with Affiliates. (a) Except for the payment of fees and
the reimbursement of expenses in connection with the LLC's acquisition of Common
Stock on the date hereof, until the consummation of the Company's Initial Public
Offering (as hereinafter defined), the Company and its subsidiaries will not
enter into any transaction or series of similar transactions with any affiliates
of the Company unless: (i) in the case of transactions in excess of $10 million
but less than $50 million, the Company obtains a resolution of the Board of
Directors of the Company approved by a majority of Disinterested Directors
certifying as to the fairness of the transaction; or (ii) in the case of
transactions (A) in excess of $50 million or (B) pursuant to which fees are paid
to such affiliate (other than sales of products and services in the ordinary
course of business), the Company obtains, in addition to the approval of a
majority of the Disinterested Directors, a fairness opinion from a nationally
recognized investment banking firm selected by the Disinterested Directors. In
addition to the foregoing, (i) if all of the transactions entered into after the
date hereof among the Company or its Subsidiaries, on the one hand, and with
First Reserve and its affiliates (the "FRC Affiliate Group"), on the other hand,
(other than the acquisition by the Company of Entech Industries, Inc., a
Delaware corporation, and LVF Holding Corporation, a Delaware corporation, both
of which are controlled by First Reserve) in the aggregate exceed $50 million,
then the Company will not enter into any subsequent transactions with the FRC
Affiliate Group unless the Company obtains a resolution of the Board of
Directors of the Company approved by a majority of Disinterested Directors
certifying as to the fairness of the transaction, and (ii) if all of the
transactions entered into after the date hereof among the Company or its
Subsidiaries, on the one hand, and with Odyssey and its affiliates (the "Odyssey
Affiliate Group"), on the other hand, in the aggregate exceed $50 million, then
the Company will not enter into any subsequent transactions with the Odyssey
Affiliate Group unless the Company obtains a resolution of the Board of
Directors of the Company approved by a majority of Disinterested Directors
certifying as to the fairness of the transaction. Without limiting the
foregoing, term "Disinterested Directors" shall mean (a) with respect to any
transaction with the FRC Affiliate Group, the directors other than those
nominated by FRC and (b) with respect to any the Odyssey Affiliate Group, the
directors other than those nominated by Odyssey. For purposes of this Section
1.6, the dollar amount of any transaction

                                       4
<PAGE>   5

shall be determined by reference, in the case of any transaction to be performed
by one or the other party entirely through the payment of cash, to the amount of
cash so required or, in the case of any other transaction, to the fair value of
any property or services conveyed or rendered by one or the other party, as
determined by a majority of the Disinterested Directors, together with the
amount of any cash required to be paid by such party.

     (b) Without limiting the foregoing, until the consummation of the Company's
Initial Public Offering, (i) the Company will not engage in any transaction or
series of related transactions between the Company or its Subsidiaries, on the
one hand, and one or more members of the FRC Affiliate Group, on the other hand,
unless the transaction has been approved by a Board Designee (as hereinafter
defined) designated by OIPF, and (ii) the Company will not engage in any
transaction or series of related transactions between the Company or its
Subsidiaries, on the one hand, and one or more members of the Odyssey Affiliate
Group, on the other hand, unless the transaction has been approved by a Board
Designee (as hereinafter defined) designated by FRC.

     (c) For purposes of this Agreement, the Company's Initial Public Offering
shall mean the first firmly underwritten public offering by the Company of
shares of Common Stock representing at least 5% of the outstanding Common Stock
(on a fully diluted basis after giving effect to such offering) in which the
Company receives proceeds, in the aggregate, of not less than $100,000,000
before deduction of underwriters' commissions and expenses.

2.   AGREEMENT AS TO MANAGEMENT OF THE COMPANY.

     Each of the parties to this Agreement agrees that it will take all actions
within its power to implement the agreements set forth below in this Section 2.
In connection with the management of the Company's business, the parties to this
Agreement hereby agree as follows:

     2.1 Size of Board. The Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation
(the "Certificate of Incorporation") and Bylaws of the Company shall provide
that the size of the Board of Directors of the Company (the "Board") shall
initially be set at nine (9) or such other number approved in writing by all of
the Sponsors.

     2.2 Designees. The Board shall be composed of directors (the "Board
Designees") determined and allocated as follows:

         (a) Fund VIII Designees. Fund VIII shall be entitled to designate three
(3) individuals to serve on the Board. Initially, Fund VIII shall designate
William E. Macaulay and Will Honeybourne, and Fund VIII will not initially
exercise its right to designate a third director. At Fund VIII's election, Fund
VIII may assign its right to designate a board member to Fund IX at any time. In
addition, Fund VIII shall have the right, but shall not be obligated, at any
time to designate at least one director for appointment to any committee of the
Board; provided that the failure of Fund VIII to exercise such right on any
occasion with respect to any committee shall not be deemed to be a waiver
thereof with respect to any other committee or with respect to such committee at
a later date.

                                       5
<PAGE>   6

         (b) Fund IX Designees. Fund IX shall be entitled to designate two (2)
individuals to serve on the Board. Initially, Fund IX shall designate Ben A.
Guill, and Fund IX will not initially exercise its right to designate a second
director. At Fund IX's election, Fund IX may assign its right to designate a
board member to Fund VIII at any time. In addition, Fund IX shall have the
right, but shall not be obligated, at any time to designate at least one
director for appointment to any committee of the Board; provided that the
failure of Fund IX to exercise such right on any occasion with respect to any
committee shall not be deemed to be a waiver thereof with respect to any other
committee or with respect to such committee at a later date.

         (c) Odyssey Designees. OIPF shall be entitled to designate two (2)
individuals to serve on the Board, which individuals initially shall be Muzzafar
Mirza and Paul D. Barnett. In addition, OIPF shall have the right, but shall not
be obligated, at any time to designate at least one director for appointment to
any committee of the Board; provided that the failure of OIPF to exercise such
right on any occasion with respect to any committee shall not be deemed to be a
waiver thereof with respect to any other committee or with respect to such
committee at a later date.

         (d) Management Seats. Two (2) Board positions shall be occupied by the
Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of the Company, which
initially shall be Patrick M. Murray and James A. Nattier respectively.

         (e) Initial Independent Directors. In addition, Bernard J. Duroc-Danner
and Gary L. Rosenthal shall initially occupy the Board positions left open by
the failure of Fund VIII and Fund IX to designate Board Designees and shall not
be considered to be affiliates of either of the Sponsors.

     In the event Fund VIII or Fund IX at any time elects to remove either of
such persons and designate their remaining Board Designees, then at the election
of Fund VIII or Fund IX the Stockholders party hereto shall vote their shares to
remove the director or directors, as the case may be, identified by such Sponsor
or Sponsors and to elect the Board Designee or Board Designees named by such
Sponsor or Sponsors.

     2.3 Diminution in Voting Power.

         (a) Notwithstanding Section 2.2, if any Sponsor at any time owns less
than 10% of the combined voting power of the Company, then such Sponsor shall be
entitled to designate only one (1) member of the Board. Any determination of
voting power pursuant to this Section shall be made (a) without giving effect to
unissued voting securities that are subject to options, warrants or similar
obligations, and (b) aggregating the holdings of affiliates of such Sponsor
(excluding affiliates that are employees of the Company). If a Sponsor loses the
right to designate directors under this Section 2.3(a), the size of the Board
shall be reduced by the number of directors for which rights have been lost, and
the Sponsor shall use its best efforts to cause all but one of its designees to
resign from the Board immediately.

         (b) Notwithstanding Section 2.2, if any Sponsor at any time owns less
than 5% of the combined voting power of the Company, then such Sponsor shall no
longer be entitled to designate any member of the Board. Any determination of
voting power pursuant to this

                                       6
<PAGE>   7

Section shall be made in the same manner as the calculation in 2.3(a) above. If
a Sponsor loses the right to designate directors under this Section 2.3(b), the
size of the Board shall be reduced by the number of directors for which rights
have been lost, and the Sponsor shall use its best efforts to cause all of its
designees to resign from the Board immediately.

     2.4 Vacancies. Other than with respect to Board seats allocated pursuant to
Section 2.2(d) or 2.2(e), if a vacancy is created on the Board for any reason,
including, but not limited to, the death, disability, resignation, removal,
disqualification or refusal to act of any director (the "Vacating Director"),
the vacancy shall be filled by the Sponsor who designated the Vacating Director.
In the event a vacancy is created with respect to the Board seats allocated
pursuant to Section 2.2(d), the vacancy shall be filled with the duly appointed
successor Chief Executive Officer or Chief Financial Officer, as applicable. In
event a vacancy is created with respect to the Board seats allocated pursuant to
Section 2.2(e), the vacancy shall be filled by Fund VIII.

     2.5 Management Of The Company. The Company will not take any of the
following actions (each a "Restricted Action"), unless, in addition to any other
consents or approvals that may be required to effect such Restricted Action, at
least one (1) Board Designee designated by FRC and one (1) Board Designee
designated by OIPF has approved such Restricted Action in their sole discretion.
A "Restricted Action" shall mean any of the following events:

         (a) the incurrence of indebtedness, the issuance of equity securities
or any other financing in one or a series of related transactions by the Company
or any of its subsidiaries, in each case, if the gross proceeds from such
transaction would be in excess of $100,000,000;

         (b) the merger, consolidation, sale or other disposition of all or
substantially all of the assets or more than 50% of the equity, liquidation
(partial or complete), or dissolution of the Company or any similar transaction
having substantially the same effect;

         (c) the acquisition or disposition of any assets or equity interests by
the Company or any of its subsidiaries in one or a series of related
transactions, in each case to the extent the total aggregate consideration,
including assumed liabilities, would be in excess of $100,000,000;

         (d) the appointment, termination or removal of, or the granting,
entering into, amending or waiving of any rights under any employment contract,
the annual determination of any benefit payable under the foregoing, stock
options or other compensation or benefits to, the Chief Executive Officer or
Chief Financial Officer of the Company; or

         (e) the initial public offering of equity securities of the Company, or
any other event that would result in a class of equity securities of the Company
being registered under Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 if no
class of the Company's equity securities had been so registered prior to such
event.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.5, if any Sponsor at
any time owns less than 5% of the combined voting power of the Company, then the
Company shall not be required to obtain the approval of such Sponsor's Board
designees before taking any Restricted

                                       7
<PAGE>   8

Action. Any determination of voting power pursuant to this Section shall be made
in the same manner as the calculation in Section 2.3(a) above.

The Company's Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws will be amended from time
to time so as to give effect to the provisions of this Section 2.

3.   REGISTRATION RIGHTS.

     3.1 Definitions. For purposes of this Section 3:

         (a) Registration. The terms "register," "registered," and
"registration" refer to a registration effected by preparing and filing a
registration statement in compliance with the Securities Act of 1933, as amended
(the "Securities Act"), and the declaration or ordering of effectiveness of such
registration statement.

         (b) Registrable Securities. The term "Registrable Securities" means all
shares of Common Stock now held or hereinafter acquired by a Stockholder;
provided, however, that the term "Registrable Securities" shall exclude any
Common Stock sold by a person in a transaction in which rights under this
Section 3 are not assigned in accordance with this Agreement or any Common Stock
sold in a public offering, whether sold pursuant to Rule 144 promulgated under
the Securities Act, or in a registered offering, or otherwise.

         (c) Registrable Securities Then Outstanding. The number of shares of
"Registrable Securities then outstanding" shall mean the number of shares of
Common Stock of the Company that are Registrable Securities and (l) are then
issued and outstanding or (2) are then issuable pursuant to an exercise or
conversion of securities exercisable or convertible into Common Stock.

         (d) Holder. For purposes of this Section 3, the term "Holder" means any
Stockholder owning of record Registrable Securities (including any "Registrable
Securities" under the Investor Rights Agreement) or any permitted assignee of
record of such Registrable Securities to whom rights under this Section 3 have
been duly assigned in accordance with this Agreement.

         (e) SEC. The term "SEC" or "Commission" means the U.S. Securities and
Exchange Commission.

     3.2 Demand Registration.

         (a) Request by LLC or Sponsor. At any time after the Initial Public
Offering of the Company's Common Stock, if the Company shall receive a written
request from a Stockholder party hereto (a "Requesting Stockholder") that the
Company file a registration statement under the Securities Act (including a
"shelf" registration statement on Form S-3 or any successor form pursuant to
Rule 415) covering the registration of Registrable Securities pursuant to this
Section 3.2 (a "Demand Notice"), then the Company shall, within ten (10)
business days of the receipt of such written request, give written notice of
such request ("Request Notice") to all Holders and, in addition to any
obligations under Section 3.3, use its best efforts to effect, as soon as
practicable, the registration under the Securities Act of all Registrable
Securities that the

                                       8
<PAGE>   9

Requesting Stockholder requests to be registered in the Demand Notice, subject
only to the limitations of this Section 3.2 and the rights of other Holders
pursuant to Section 3.3; provided that the Company shall not be obligated to
effect any such registration until 180 days after the effective date of the
registration statement pertaining to the Company's Initial Public Offering; and
provided, further, that the Company shall not be obligated to effect any such
registration if the Company has, within the six (6) month period preceding the
date of the Demand Notice, already effected a registration under the Securities
Act pursuant to (i) this Section 3.2 or Section 2.2 of the Investor Rights
Agreement or (ii) Section 3.3 hereof or Section 2.3 of the Investor Rights
Agreement in which the Requesting Stockholder participated, other than a
registration from which all or a portion of the Registrable Securities of the
Requesting Stockholder were excluded pursuant to the provisions of Section
3.3(a).

         (b) Underwriting. If the Requesting Stockholder intends to distribute
the Registrable Securities covered by its request by means of an underwritten
offering, then it shall so advise the Company as a part of the Demand Notice,
and the Company shall include such information in the Request Notice. In such
event, the right of any Holder to include his Registrable Securities in such
registration shall be conditioned upon such Holder's participation in such
underwriting and the inclusion of such Holder's Registrable Securities in the
underwriting (unless otherwise mutually agreed by the Requesting Stockholder and
such Holder) as provided herein. The Company and all Holders proposing to
distribute their securities through such underwriting shall enter into an
underwriting agreement in customary form with the managing underwriter or
underwriters selected for such underwriting by the Requesting Stockholder. All
Holders, whether or not they are participating in such offering, and the Company
agree not to effect any sale, transfer, assignment, pledge or conveyance of
(including, without limitation, taking any short position in) the Common Stock
(or any securities of the Company exchangeable or convertible into Common Stock)
during (i) the 90-day period (or such longer period required by the underwriters
of such offering) beginning on the effective date of a registration statement
filed by the Company (except pursuant to the registration effected thereby), or
(ii) any period in which trading in the Company's securities is restricted
pursuant to Company insider trading policies; provided, however, that no Sponsor
shall be subject to the restrictions imposed by clause (ii) of this Section
during any period in which it has not designated any of the directors of the
Company and is otherwise not affiliated with the Company. Notwithstanding any
other provision of this Section 3.2 or Section 3.3, if the managing
underwriter(s) determine(s) in good faith that marketing factors require a
limitation of the number of securities to be underwritten, then the Company
shall so advise all Holders of Registrable Securities that would otherwise be
registered and underwritten pursuant hereto, and the managing underwriter(s) may
exclude shares of the Registrable Securities from the registration and the
underwriting, and the number of shares that will be included in the registration
and the underwriting shall be allocated, first to the Requesting Stockholder and
to each of the Holders requesting inclusion of their Registrable Securities in
such registration statement pursuant to Section 3.3 hereof or Section 2.3 of the
Investor Rights Agreement on a pro rata basis based on the total number of
Registrable Securities held by the Requesting Stockholder and each such Holder,
and second to the Company. No other shares may be included (other than by the
Company or by the Holders pursuant to Section 3.3 hereof or Section 2.3 of the
Investor Rights Agreement) without the Requesting Stockholder's consent.

                                       9
<PAGE>   10

         (c) Maximum Number of Demand Registrations. The Company shall be
obligated to effect only four (4) such registrations pursuant to this Section
3.2 for FRC, and only two (2) such registrations pursuant to this Section 3.2
for Odyssey (each of which registrations for FRC and Odyssey shall be deemed a
registration for the LLC or its assignee under the Investor Rights Agreement, it
being agreed that the rights granted under this Section 3.2 are not in addition
to the rights of the LLC under Section 2.2 of the Investor Rights Agreement);
provided, however, that, if the number of Registrable Securities that the
Requesting Stockholder is permitted to offer under this Section 3.2 is reduced
by more than 50% of the amount such Requesting Stockholder requested to be
registered in the Initial Demand Notice as a result of the application of
Section 3.2(b), the initial request shall not reduce the number of requests
permitted by this Section 3.2(c) pursuant to Section 3.2(a). A Registration
shall be effected for purposes of this Section 3.2(c) when and if a registration
statement is declared effective by the Commission and the distribution of
securities thereunder has been completed without the occurrence of any stop
order or proceeding relating thereto suspending the effectiveness of the
Registration.

         (d) Deferral. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company shall
furnish to the Requesting Stockholder a certificate signed by the President or
Chief Executive Officer of the Company stating that, in the good faith judgment
of the Board, it would be materially detrimental to the Company and its
stockholders for such registration statement then to be filed, the Company shall
have the right to defer such filings and, by notice to the Requesting
Stockholder, to require the Requesting Stockholder to withdraw its Demand Notice
and to refrain from delivering another Demand Notice for a period of not more
than ninety (90) days after receipt of the request of the initial Demand Notice;
provided, however, that the Company may not utilize this right more than twice
in any twelve (12) month period.

         (e) Expenses. All expenses incurred in connection with any registration
pursuant to this Section 3.2, including without limitation all federal and "blue
sky" registration, filing and qualification fees, printer's and accounting fees,
fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company, and fees and expenses of one
counsel to the Holders (selected by the Holder including Registrable Securities
in such registration statement that holds the greatest number of Registrable
Securities) shall be borne by the Company. Each Holder participating in a
registration pursuant to this Section 3.2 shall, in the case of a firmly
underwritten offering, bear such Holder's proportionate share (based on the
total number of shares sold in such registration other than for the account of
the Company) of all discounts, commissions or other amounts payable to
underwriters in connection with such offering by the Holders and, in the case of
any other offering, bear the entire amount of discounts, commissions and other
amounts payable to underwriters or brokers attributable to Registrable
Securities sold by such Holder pursuant to such registration. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, the Company shall not be required to pay for any expenses of any
registration proceeding begun pursuant to this Section 3.2 if the registration
request is subsequently withdrawn at the request of the Requesting Stockholder,
unless the Requesting Stockholder agrees that such registration constitutes the
use by it of one (1) demand registration pursuant to this Section 3.2; provided,
however, that, if at the time of such withdrawal, the Requesting Stockholder has
learned of a material adverse change in the condition, business, or prospects of
the Company not known to the Requesting Stockholder at the time of its request
for such registration and has withdrawn its request for registration with
reasonable promptness after learning of such material adverse change, then the
Requesting

                                       10
<PAGE>   11

Stockholder shall not be required to pay any of such expenses and such
registration shall not constitute the use of a demand registration pursuant to
this Section 3.2.

     3.3 Piggyback Registrations. The Company shall promptly notify all Holders
of Registrable Securities in writing (a "Piggyback Notice") prior to filing any
registration statement under the Securities Act for purposes of effecting a
public offering of securities of the Company (including, without limitation,
registration statements relating to secondary offerings of securities of the
Company, whether pursuant to Section 3.2 or otherwise, but excluding
registration statements relating to any employee benefit plan, an acquisition or
a corporate reorganization) and will afford each such Holder an opportunity to
include in such registration statement all or any part of the Registrable
Securities then held by such Holder. Each Holder desiring to include in any such
registration statement all or any part of the Registrable Securities held by
such Holder shall within ten (10) days after receipt of the Piggyback Notice, so
notify the Company in writing and in such notice shall inform the Company of the
number of Registrable Securities such Holder wishes to include in such
registration statement.

         (a) Underwriting. If a registration statement referred to in the
Piggyback Notice is for an underwritten offering, then the Company shall so
advise the Holders of Registrable Securities. In such event, the right of any
such Holder to include Registrable Securities in such a Registration pursuant to
this Section 3.3 shall be conditioned upon such Holder's participation in such
underwriting and the inclusion of such Holder's Registrable Securities in the
underwriting as provided herein. All Holders proposing to distribute their
Registrable Securities through such underwriting shall enter into an
underwriting agreement in customary form with the managing underwriter or
underwriters selected for such underwriting. With respect to the Company's
Initial Public Offering or any other offering in which the Company is
registering securities, all Holders, whether or not they are participating in
such offering, hereby agree not to effect any sale, transfer, assignment, pledge
or conveyance of (including, without limitation, taking any short position in)
the Common Stock (or any securities of the Company exchangeable or convertible
into Common Stock) during (i) the 90-day period beginning on the effective date
of a registration statement filed by the Company (except as part of that
Registration), or (ii) any period in which trading in the Company's securities
is restricted pursuant to Company insider trading policies; provided, however,
no Sponsor shall be subject to the restrictions imposed by clause (ii) of this
Section during any period in which it has not designated any of the directors of
the Company and is otherwise not affiliated with the Company. Notwithstanding
any other provision of this Agreement, if the managing underwriter(s)
determine(s) in good faith that marketing factors require a limitation of the
number of shares to be underwritten, then the Company shall so advise all
Holders of Registrable Securities that would otherwise be registered and
underwritten pursuant hereto, and the managing underwriter(s) may exclude shares
of the Registrable Securities from the registration and the underwriting, and
the number of shares that will be included in the registration and the
underwriting shall be allocated as set forth in Section 3.2 hereof or Section
2.2 of the Investor Rights Agreement, or, if the underwriting is not pursuant to
such Sections, first to the Company, and second, to each of the Holders
requesting inclusion of their Registrable Securities in such registration
statement on a pro rata basis based on the total number of Registrable
Securities held by each such Holder. If any Holder disapproves of the terms of
any such underwriting, such Holder may elect to withdraw therefrom by written
notice to the Company and the underwriter(s), delivered at least ten (10)
business days prior to the effective date of the

                                       11
<PAGE>   12

registration statement. Any Registrable Securities excluded or withdrawn from
such underwriting shall be excluded and withdrawn from the registration. For
both (i) any Holder (other than the LLC) that is a partnership, the Holder and
the partners and retired partners of such Holder, or the estates and family
members of any such partners and retired partners and any trusts for the benefit
of any of the foregoing persons, and (ii) any Holder (other than the LLC) that
is a corporation, the Holder and all corporations that are affiliates of such
Holder, shall be deemed to be a single "Holder," and any pro rata reduction with
respect to such "Holder" shall be based upon the aggregate amount of shares
carrying registration rights owned by all entities and individuals included in
such "Holder," as defined in this sentence.

         (b) Expenses. All expenses incurred in connection with a registration
pursuant to this Section 3.3 (excluding underwriters' and brokers' discounts and
commissions relating to shares sold by the Holders, which shall be borne by each
Holder of such shares), including without limitation all federal and "blue sky"
registration, filing and qualification fees, printers' and accounting fees, fees
and disbursements of one counsel for Holders (selected by the Holder including
Registrable Securities in such registration statement that holds the greatest
number of Registrable Securities), and fees and disbursements of counsel for the
Company, shall be borne by the Company.

         (c) Not Demand Registration. Registration pursuant to this Section 3.3
shall not be deemed to be a demand registration as described in Section 3.2,
unless the Requesting Stockholder specifically elects otherwise in writing.
Except as otherwise provided herein, there shall be no limit on the number of
times the Holders may request registration of Registrable Securities under this
Section 3.3.

     3.4 Obligations of the Company. Whenever required to effect the
registration of any Registrable Securities under this Agreement the Company
shall, as expeditiously as reasonably possible:

         (a) Registration Statement. Prepare and file with the SEC a
registration statement with respect to such Registrable Securities and use its
best efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective and to
keep any such registration statement effective for so long as required by the
Securities Act to complete the distribution.

         (b) Amendments and Supplements. Prepare and file with the SEC such
amendments and supplements to such registration statement and the prospectus
used in connection with such registration statement as may be necessary to
comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition
of all securities covered by such registration statement.

         (c) Prospectuses. Furnish to the Holders such number of copies of a
prospectus, including a preliminary prospectus, in conformity with the
requirements of the Securities Act, and such other documents as they may
reasonably request in order to facilitate the disposition of the Registrable
Securities owned by them that are included in such registration.

         (d) Blue Sky. Use its best efforts to register and qualify the
securities covered by such registration statement under such other securities or
Blue Sky laws of such jurisdictions

                                       12
<PAGE>   13

as shall be reasonably requested by the Holders; provided that the Company shall
not be required in connection therewith or as a condition thereto to qualify to
do business or to file a general consent to service of process in any such
states or jurisdictions.

         (e) Underwriting. In the event of any underwritten public offering,
enter into and perform its obligations under an underwriting agreement in usual
and customary form (including indemnification provisions), with the managing
underwriter(s) of such offering. Each Holder participating in such underwriting
shall also enter into and perform its obligations under such an agreement.

         (f) Notification. Notify each Holder of Registrable Securities covered
by such registration statement at any time when a prospectus relating thereto is
required to be delivered under the Securities Act of the happening of any event
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 a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the
statements therein not misleading in the light of the circumstances then
existing.

         (g) Opinion and Comfort Letter. Furnish, at the request of any Holder
requesting registration of Registrable Securities or of any underwriter in
connection herewith, on the date or dates requested by such Holder, (i) an
opinion, dated as of such date, of the counsel representing the Company for the
purposes of such registration, in form and substance as is customarily given to
underwriters in an underwritten public offering and reasonably satisfactory to a
majority in interest of the Holders requesting registration, addressed to the
underwriters, if any, and to the Holders requesting registration of Registrable
Securities and (ii) a "comfort" letter dated as of such date, from the
independent certified public accountants of the Company, in form and substance
as is customarily given by independent certified public accountants to
underwriters in an underwritten public offering and reasonably satisfactory to a
majority in interest of the Holders requesting registration, addressed to the
underwriters, if any, and to the Holders requesting registration of Registrable
Securities.

         (h) Road Shows. To the extent reasonably requested by a Requesting
Stockholder, cause the appropriate members of the management and employees to
participate in meetings, diligence sessions, and road shows.

     3.5 Furnish Information. It shall be a condition precedent to the
obligations of the Company to take any action pursuant to Sections 3.2 or 3.3
that the selling Holders shall furnish to the Company such information regarding
themselves, the Registrable Securities held by them, and the intended method of
disposition of such securities as shall be required to effect timely the
Registration of their Registrable Securities.

     3.6 Indemnification. If any Registrable Securities are included in a
registration statement under Sections 3.2 or 3.3:

         (a) By the Company. To the extent permitted by law, the Company will
indemnify and hold harmless each Holder, the partners, officers and directors of
each Holder, any underwriter (as defined in Section 2(11) of the Securities Act)
for such Holder and each person, if any, who controls such Holder or underwriter
within the meaning of the Securities Act

                                       13
<PAGE>   14

or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, (the "Exchange Act"),
against any losses, claims, damages, or liabilities (joint or several) to which
they may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or other
federal or state law, insofar as such losses, claims, damages, or liabilities
(or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any of the
following statements, omissions or violations (collectively a "Violation"):

               (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a
          material fact contained in such registration statement, including any
          preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained therein or any
          amendments or supplements thereto;

               (ii) any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material
          fact required to be stated therein, or necessary to make the
          statements therein not misleading, or

               (iii) any violation or alleged violation by the Company of the
          Securities Act, the Exchange Act, any federal or state securities law
          or any rule or regulation promulgated under the Securities Act, the
          Exchange Act or any federal or state securities law in connection with
          the offering covered by such registration statement;

and the Company will reimburse each such Holder, partner, officer or director,
underwriter or controlling person for any legal or other expenses reasonably
incurred by them, as incurred, in connection with investigating or defending any
such loss, claim, damage, liability or action; provided, however, that the
indemnity agreement contained in this subsection 3.6(a) shall not apply to
amounts paid in settlement of any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action
if such settlement is effected without the consent of the Company, which consent
shall not be unreasonably withheld, nor shall the Company be liable in any such
case for any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action to the extent (and
only to the extent) that it arises out of or is based upon a Violation that
occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished
expressly for use in connection with such registration by such Holder, partner,
officer, director, underwriter or controlling person of such Holder.

         (b) By Selling Holders. To the extent permitted by law, each selling
Holder will indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each of its directors, each
of its officers who have signed the registration statement, each person, if any,
who controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act, any
underwriter and any other Holder selling securities under such registration
statement or any of such other Holder's partners, directors or officers or any
person who controls such Holder within the meaning of the Securities Act or the
Exchange Act, against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (joint or
several) to which the Company or any such director, officer, controlling person,
underwriter or other such Holder, partner or director, officer or controlling
person of such other Holder may become subject under the Securities Act, the
Exchange Act or other federal or state law, insofar as such losses, claims,
damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereto) arise out of or are based
upon any Violation, in each case to the extent (and only to the extent) that
such Violation occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with written
information furnished by such Holder expressly for use in connection with such
registration; and each such Holder will reimburse any legal or other expenses
reasonably incurred by the Company or any such director, officer, controlling
person,

                                       14
<PAGE>   15

underwriter or other Holder, partner, officer, director or controlling person of
such other Holder in connection with investigating or defending any such loss,
claim, damage, liability or action: provided, however, that the indemnity
agreement contained in this subsection 3.6(b) shall not apply to amounts paid in
settlement of any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action if such
settlement is effected without the consent of the Holder, which consent shall
not be unreasonably withheld; and provided, further, that the total amounts
payable in indemnity by a Holder under this Section 3.6(b) in respect of any
Violation shall not exceed the net proceeds received by such Holder in the
registered offering out of which such Violation arises.

         (c) Notice. Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this
Section 3.6 of notice of the commencement of any action (including any
governmental action), such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof
is to be made against any indemnifying party under this Section 3.6, deliver to
the indemnifying party a written notice of the commencement thereof and the
indemnifying party shall have the right to participate in, and, to the extent
the indemnifying party so desires, jointly with any other indemnifying party
similarly notified, to assume the defense thereof with counsel mutually
satisfactory to the parties; provided, however, that an indemnified party shall
have the right to retain its own counsel, with the fees and expenses to be paid
by the indemnifying party, if representation of such indemnified party by the
counsel retained by the indemnifying party would be inappropriate due to actual
or potential conflict of interests between such indemnified party and any other
party represented by such counsel in such proceeding. The failure to deliver
written notice to the indemnifying party within a reasonable time of the
commencement of any such action shall relieve such indemnifying party of
liability to the indemnified party under this Section 3.6 only to the extent the
indemnifying party is prejudiced as a result thereof, and the omission so to
deliver written notice to the indemnifying party will not relieve it of any
liability that it may have to any indemnified party otherwise than under this
Section 3.6.

         (d) Defect Eliminated in Final Prospectus. The foregoing indemnity
agreements of the Company and Holders are subject to the condition that, insofar
as they relate to any Violation made in a preliminary prospectus but eliminated
or remedied in the amended prospectus on file with the SEC at the time the
registration statement in question becomes effective or the amended prospectus
filed with the SEC pursuant to SEC Rule 424(b) (the "Final Prospectus"), such
indemnity agreement shall not inure to the benefit of any person if a copy of
the Final Prospectus was timely furnished to the indemnified party and was not
furnished to the person asserting the loss, liability, claim or damage at or
prior to the time such action is required by the Securities Act.

         (e) Contribution. To provide for just and equitable contribution, if an
indemnified party makes a claim for indemnification pursuant to Section 3.6
(subject to the limitations hereof) but it is found in a final judicial
determination, not subject to further appeal, that such indemnification may not
be enforced in such case, even though this Agreement expressly provides for
indemnification in such case, then each indemnifying party, in lieu of
indemnifying such indemnified party, shall contribute to the amount paid or
payable by such indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages,
liabilities and judgments (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect
the relative benefits received by the Company and the Stockholders from the
offering of the Registrable Securities or (ii) if the allocation provided in
clause (i) above is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is
appropriate to reflect

                                       15
<PAGE>   16

not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the
relative fault of the Company and Stockholders in connection with the statements
or omissions or alleged statements or omissions that resulted in such losses,
claims, damages, liabilities or judgments, as well as any other relevant
equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Company and the
Stockholders shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total net
proceeds from the offering and sale of the Registrable Securities (before
deducting expenses) received by the Company and the Stockholders, bears to the
total price to the public of the Registrable Securities. The relative fault of
the Company and the Stockholders shall be determined by reference to, among
other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact
or the omission or the alleged omission to state a material fact relates to
information supplied by the Company or the Stockholders and the parties'
relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or
prevent such statement or omission. The Company and Stockholders agree that it
would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 3.6(e)
were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation that
does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in the
immediately preceding paragraph. The amount paid or payable by an indemnified
party as a result of the losses, claims, damages, liabilities or judgments
referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph shall be deemed to include,
subject to the limitations set forth above, any legal or other expenses
reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating
or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this
Section 3.6, no Stockholder shall be required to contribute, more in the
aggregate than the aggregate net proceeds received by such Stockholder in the
registered offering out of which such contribution obligation arises. No person
guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of
the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was
not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

         (f) Survival. The obligations of the Company and Holders under this
Section 3.6 shall survive until the first anniversary of the expiration of all
applicable statutes of limitation or extensions of such statutes.

     3.7 Termination of the Company's Obligations. The Company shall have no
obligations pursuant to Sections 3.2 or 3.3 with respect to any Registrable
Securities proposed to be sold by a Holder in a registration pursuant to Section
3.2 or 3.3 if, in the reasonable opinion of counsel to the Company, addressed to
such Holder, all such Registrable Securities held by such Holder could be sold
in a single transaction in reliance upon Rule 144 promulgated under the
Securities Act. The rights of the Sponsors pursuant to Sections 3.2 and 3.3
shall terminate upon the assignment to each Sponsor of substantially similar
rights pursuant to the Investor Rights Agreement upon the distribution of all of
the shares of Stock held by the LLC to its members.

4.   SALES BY STOCKHOLDERS.

     4.1 Restrictions on Transfer; Notice of Sales.

         (a) Absolute Restriction. Except for Permitted Transfers (as defined in
Section 4.5), no Stockholder party hereto shall sell, transfer, assign, pledge
or otherwise dispose of, directly or indirectly, through the sale of interests
in any holding company (including the LLC)

                                       16
<PAGE>   17

or otherwise ("Transfer") any shares of the capital stock of the Company now
held or hereafter acquired by such Stockholder ("Stock") prior to April 10,
2003.

         (b) Sale Only In Accordance With This Section. Except for Permitted
Transfers and Transfers in accordance with the applicable procedures of this
Section 4 and Section 6.1, no Stockholder party hereto shall Transfer any Stock.
If any such Stockholder (the "Seller") proposes to Transfer any Stock, then the
Seller shall promptly give written notice (the "Notice") to the Company and the
other Stockholders at least thirty-five (35) business days prior to the closing
of such sale or transfer (or, in the case of a Transfer pursuant to Section 4.2,
forty-five (45) days). In addition to any requirements of Section 4.2, the
Notice shall describe in reasonable detail the proposed sale or transfer
including, without limitation, the number of shares of Stock to be sold or
transferred, the nature of such sale or transfer, the consideration to be paid,
and, if known, the name and address of each prospective purchaser or transferee.

     4.2 Co-Sale Right. (a) If any Seller holding more than 5% of the
outstanding Common Stock (or equivalent) of the Company desires to Transfer
Stock (other than a Permitted Transfer), then such Seller shall deliver the
Notice to all of the Stockholders. Each Stockholder party hereto shall have the
pro rata right, based on the total number of shares of Common Stock held by such
Stockholder, exercisable upon written notice to the Seller within fifteen (15)
days after receipt of the Notice, to participate in such Transfer of Stock on
the same terms and conditions, up to the total number of shares of Stock
included in the Notice. To the extent Stockholders exercise such right of
participation (each a "Co-Sale Stockholder") the number of shares of Stock that
the Seller may sell or otherwise dispose of in the Transfer shall be
correspondingly reduced so that the maximum number of shares of Stock sold or
otherwise disposed of in the Transfer by the Seller or a Co-Sale Stockholder
under this Section 4.2 shall be the number found by multiplying the total number
of shares included in the Notice, as delivered under this Section 4.2, by a
fraction the numerator of which is the total number of shares owned by the
Seller or such Co-Sale Stockholder, as the case may be (on a fully diluted
basis) and the denominator of which is the total number of shares owned by the
Seller and all Co-Sale Stockholders exercising such rights in the aggregate (on
a fully diluted basis). Each Co-Sale Stockholder shall effect its participation
in the Transfer by promptly delivering to Seller for transfer to the prospective
purchaser one or more certificates, properly endorsed for transfer, that
represent the number of shares of Stock which such Co-Sale Stockholder elects to
sell. The Seller will use its best efforts to obtain the agreement of the
prospective transferee(s) to the participation of the Co-Sale Stockholders in
the contemplated Transfer and will not Transfer any Stock to the prospective
transferee(s) if such transferee(s) refuses to allow the participation of the
Co-Sale Stockholders, or refuses to become a party to this Agreement as a
Stockholder.

         (b) The co-sale right established by this Section 4.2 shall terminate
upon the effective date of the registration statement pertaining to the
Company's Initial Public Offering. The rights of the Sponsors pursuant to this
Section 4.2 shall terminate upon the assignment to each Sponsor of substantially
similar rights pursuant to the Investor Rights Agreement upon the distribution
of all of the shares of Stock held by the LLC to its members.

     4.3 Further Sales. To the extent the Company, the Sponsors and the other
Stockholders do not exercise their rights under Sections 4.2 with respect to the
sale of Stock subject to the Notice, the Seller may, not later than one hundred
twenty (120) days following the

                                       17
<PAGE>   18

first delivery to the Company and the other Stockholders of the Notice, conclude
a Transfer of the Stock covered by the Notice and not excluded from the Transfer
by virtue of the participation therein by Co-Sale Stockholders on the terms and
conditions set forth in the Notice. Any proposed Transfer on terms and
conditions more favorable to the Seller than those described in the Notice or
any proposed transfer of any Stock by the Seller after such one hundred twenty
day period, shall again be subject to the co-sale rights of the Stockholders and
shall require compliance by the Seller with the procedures described in this
Section 4. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Transfer of the Stock shall be
effective unless such transferee agrees to be bound by the terms of this
Agreement.

     4.4 Rights to Compel Transfer.

         (a) If any Sponsor or Sponsors, or any of their respective affiliates
holding, individually or collectively, more than 50% of the outstanding Stock
proposes to make a Transfer of at least 80% of the Stock held, collectively, by
such persons to any person or entity (other than the LLC or a Sponsor) that, (i)
upon completion of such Transfer, would hold, directly or indirectly, more than
50% of the outstanding Stock on a fully diluted basis and (ii) is not an
affiliate of such Stockholder, then such selling Stockholder or Stockholders
(collectively, the "Control Seller") shall have the right, exercisable as set
forth below, to require all of the other Stockholders (the "Remaining
Stockholders") to sell, directly or indirectly, any or all of the Common Stock
(as well as, at the election of the Control Seller, any securities convertible
into or exercisable for Common Stock, and any other equity interest of the
Company (the "Stock Rights")) then owned by such Remaining Stockholders (the
"Transfer Stock") to the proposed transferee (the "Acquiror") in the same pro
rata amount (determined based upon the relative direct or indirect ownership of
shares of Common Stock) as is being sold by the Control Seller and for the same
consideration per share of Common Stock as is being paid to the Control Seller
and on the same terms as are applicable to the Control Seller (the "Compelled
Transfer"). The purchase price for each vested Stock Right in any such Transfer
shall equal the "spread" between the exercise price for such vested Stock Right
and the purchase price per share of Stock. The terms and conditions of the
Compelled Transfer shall be as set forth in the applicable purchase agreement
between the Control Seller and the Acquiror.

         (b) The Control Seller shall cause the terms of the Compelled Transfer
to be reduced to writing and shall provide a written notice (the "Compelled
Transfer Notice") of such Compelled Transfer to the Company and the Company
shall provide such Compelled Transfer Notice to the Remaining Stockholders. The
Compelled Transfer Notice shall contain written notice of the exercise of the
Control Seller's rights pursuant to Section 4.4(a) hereof, setting forth the
consideration to be paid by the Acquiror for each share of Stock and each Stock
Right and the other terms and conditions of the Compelled Transfer. Within 20
calendar days following the date of receipt of the Compelled Transfer Notice,
each of the Remaining Stockholders shall deliver to the Control Seller
certificates representing the Stock required to be transferred and instruments
representing Stock Rights required to be transferred, duly endorsed, together
with all other documents required to be executed in connection with such
Compelled Transfer or, if such delivery is not permitted by applicable law, an
unconditional agreement to deliver such certificates pursuant to this Section
4.4(b) at the closing for such Compelled Transfer against delivery to such
Remaining Stockholder of the consideration therefore. Such certificates shall be
held by the Control Seller in escrow for the benefit of the appropriate
Remaining Stockholder. If

<PAGE>   19

a Remaining Stockholder should fail to deliver such certificates as described
herein, the Company shall cause the books and records of the Company to show
that such Stock and Stock Rights are bound by the provisions of this Section
4.4(b) and that such Stock and Stock Rights shall be transferred only to the
Acquiror upon surrender for Transfer by the Remaining Stockholder thereof.

         (c) If, within 150 calendar days (or such longer period not exceeding
210 calendar days as may be necessary to comply with any applicable provisions
of the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended, or to
obtain other required regulatory approval) after the Control Seller give the
Compelled Transfer Notice, they have not completed the sale of all the Transfer
Stock, the Control Seller shall return to each of the Remaining Stockholders all
certificates representing Stock and instruments representing Stock Rights that
such Remaining Stockholders delivered for sale pursuant hereto, and all the
restrictions on sale or other disposition contained in this Agreement with
respect to such Stock and the Stock owned by the Control Seller shall again be
in effect.

         (d) Upon the consummation of the Compelled Transfer, the Control Seller
shall give notice thereof to the Remaining Stockholders, and shall (or shall
cause the Acquiror to) remit promptly to each of the Remaining Stockholders a
net amount with respect to the Stock and Stock Rights of such Remaining
Stockholders sold pursuant thereto, after deducting a pro rata portion of any
related out-of-pocket fees and expenses, and shall furnish such other evidence
of the completion and time of completion of such sale or other disposition and
the terms thereof as may be reasonably requested by such Remaining Stockholders.

         (e) The right to compel Transfers established by this Section 4.4 shall
terminate upon the effective date of the registration statement pertaining to
the Company's Initial Public Offering.

     4.5 Permitted Transfers. The following shall be considered "Permitted
Transfers," and not subject to the restrictions of this Section 4, provided the
transferee thereof (the "Permitted Transferee") agrees to become a party to and
be bound by the provisions of this Agreement as a Stockholder: (a) Transfers to
the Company approved in advance by the Board, (b) Transfers among the members of
the LLC and from the LLC to its members, to the extent permitted by the terms of
the operating agreement among the members, (c) Transfers effected pursuant to an
effective registration statement filed pursuant to the Securities Act, (d) after
the Company's Initial Public Offering, Transfers of securities registered under
the Exchange Act sold in reliance upon an exemption under the Securities Act; or
(e) without limiting the foregoing, any transfer that would be a "Permitted
Transfer" under the Investor Rights Agreement.

5.   PREEMPTIVE RIGHTS.

     5.1 Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, prior to the Initial Public
Offering, the Company shall not issue any (a) capital stock of the Company, (b)
securities convertible or exchangeable for capital stock of the Company or (c)
options, warrants or rights carrying any rights to purchase capital stock of the
Company (the securities described in clauses (a)-(c) are referred to herein
collectively as the "Participation Securities"), in each case referred to in

                                       19
<PAGE>   20

clauses (a)-(c), to any affiliate of the Company without offering to each party
hereto other than the Company (collectively, the "Preemptive Holders"), the
right to purchase or subscribe for up to that number of additional Participation
Securities (a "Pro Rata Share") which represents the product of (i) the total
number of Participation Securities to be issued by the Company (which may be
increased in the event of a Cash Participation Election (as described below))
multiplied by (ii) a fraction, (A) the numerator of which is the number of
shares of Common Stock owned, directly or indirectly, by such Preemptive Holder,
and (B) the denominator of which is the number of shares of Common Stock
outstanding immediately prior to such issuance held by all Preemptive Holders
and all other Persons that have similar pre-emptive rights (it being understood
and agreed that the Company may accordingly be required to reduce the number of
shares of Participation Securities to be issued or sold to Persons other than
the Preemptive Holders); provided that the provisions of this Section 15 shall
not apply to the issuance of Common Stock, or options to purchase Common Stock,
to the Company's employees under bona fide employee compensation or benefit
packages or plans.

     5.2 In the event the Company proposes to issue or sell any Participation
Securities in a transaction giving rise to the preemptive rights provided for in
this Section 5, the Company shall send a written notice (the "Preemptive
Notice") to each Preemptive Holder setting forth the number of such
Participation Securities that the Company proposes to sell or issue, the price
(before any commission or discount) at which such securities are proposed to be
issued (or, in the case of an underwritten or privately placed offering in which
the price is not known at the time the Preemptive Notice is given, the method of
determining such price and an estimate thereof), the other material terms of the
transaction (including the form and amount of consideration) and its Pro Rata
Share of the Participation Securities; provided, that in the event of an
issuance of Participation Securities for consideration other than cash, each
Preemptive Holder may elect to purchase its Pro Rata Share for cash (the "Cash
Participation Election") at a price per share equal to the per-share value of
such non-cash consideration (determined in good faith by the group of
Disinterested Directors who approved the transaction giving rise to the
preemptive right). At any time within 5 business days after its receipt of the
Preemptive Notice, the Preemptive Holders may exercise their preemptive rights
to purchase or subscribe for Participation Securities as provided for in this
Section 5, by so informing the Company in writing (an "Exercise Notice"). Each
Exercise Notice shall state the percentage of the proposed sale or issuance that
each Preemptive Holder elects to purchase (up to all the Participation
Securities that could be purchased by all Preemptive Holders and all other
Persons that have similar preemptive rights).

     5.3 To the extent that any Preemptive Holder has indicated that it will not
fully subscribe for its Pro Rata Share of the Participation Securities, the
Company shall allocate all such Participation Securities not subscribed for to
the Preemptive Holders who have subscribed for more Participation Securities
than their Pro Rata Share (the "Fully Participating Preemptive Holders") in the
proportion that the number of shares of Common Stock each owns, directly or
indirectly, bears to the total number of shares of Common Stock owned , directly
or indirectly, by all such Fully Participating Preemptive Holders. If the number
of Participation Securities so allocated to a Fully Participating Preemptive
Holder exceeds the maximum number of Participation Securities that it has
indicated in its notice to the Company it is willing to subscribe for, then the
Company shall allocate any excess over such maximum among all Fully
Participating Preemptive Holders who have subscribed for a maximum number of
Participation

                                       20
<PAGE>   21

Securities which exceeds the number of Participation Securities allocated to
them pursuant to the preceding sentence, in the proportion that their respective
holdings bear to the total number of shares of Common Stock owned, directly or
indirectly, by all such Fully Participating Preemptive Holders, and the Company
shall follow this procedure, if necessary, until all Participation Securities
available for purchase by the Preemptive Holders have been allocated to them.

     5.4 The purchase or subscription by the Preemptive Holders, pursuant to
this Section 5 shall be on the same price and other terms and conditions,
including the date of sale or issuance, as are applicable to the purchasers or
subscribers of the additional Participation Securities whose purchases or
subscriptions give rise to the preemptive rights, which price and other terms
and conditions shall be as stated in the relevant Preemptive Notice.

     5.5 If, with respect to any Preemptive Notice, the Preemptive Holders fail
to deliver an Exercise Notice with respect to all of the Participation
Securities available for purchase by the Preemptive Holders within the requisite
time period, the Company shall have 90 days after the expiration of the time in
which the Exercise Notice is required to be delivered in which to sell not less
than 90% and not more than 110% of the number of shares of Participation
Securities of the Company described in the Preemptive Notice at a price of not
less than the estimated price set forth in the Preemptive Notice. If, at the end
of such 90 day period, the Company has not completed the sale or issuance of
Participation Securities of the Company in accordance with the terms described
in the Preemptive Notice, or in the event of any contemplated sale or issuance
within such 90 day period but outside such price parameters, the Company shall
again be obligated to comply with the provisions of this Section 5 with respect
to, and provide the opportunity to participate in, any proposed sale or issuance
of Participation Securities of the Company.
