 This VOTING AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”), is entered into as of

the Securities Purchase Agreement (as defined below). 
 W I T N E S S E T H: 

WHEREAS, Investor and the Company are entering into a Securities Purchase Agreement, dated as of the date hereof (as it may be amended
from time to time in accordance with its terms, the “Securities Purchase Agreement”), that contemplates, among other things, the issuance by the Company of Common Stock of the Company, par value $0.01 per share (“Common
Stock”) and certain notes to Investor or an affiliate thereof, the issuance of certain other notes to Investor or an affiliate of Investor (the proceeds of which will be used by the Company to repurchase the Company’s 3.00% Convertible
Senior Notes due 2013 held by Investor or an affiliate of Investor) and the provision of a support arrangement by Investor or an affiliate of Investor to the Company in respect of the Company’s 3.00% Convertible Senior Notes due 2013 not held
by Investor or an affiliate thereof, each on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Securities Purchase Agreement; 
 WHEREAS, as of the date hereof, Investor is the record and/or beneficial owner of the number of shares of Common Stock set forth on Attachment A hereto (together with any shares of Common Stock or
other voting capital stock of the Company acquired after the date hereof, whether upon the exercise of warrants, options, conversion of convertible securities or otherwise, collectively, the “Owned Shares”); and 

WHEREAS, Investor currently does not own any Common Stock but in the near future intends to acquire Common Stock from certain affiliates
of Investor (each such acquisition a “Russian Standard Transfer”); 
 WHEREAS, as a condition to the
willingness of the Company to enter into the Securities Purchase Agreement, and in order to induce the Company to enter into the Securities Purchase Agreement, Investor is willing to enter into this Agreement. 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and for other good and valuable consideration given to each party hereto, the receipt
of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows: 
 1. Agreement to Vote; Irrevocable Proxy; Non-Solicitation
Provisions; Disclosure Obligations. 
 1.1. Agreement to Vote. Investor shall, at any meeting of the stockholders of
the Company, however called, or any adjournment or postponement thereof, or in connection with any written consent of the stockholders of the Company, cause such Owned Shares to be counted as present for purposes of establishing a quorum and be
present (in person or by proxy) and vote or consent (or cause to be voted or consented) all of such Owned Shares (i) in favor of the Company Stockholder Approval (as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement) and any actions reasonably
required in furtherance thereof (provided, however, that none of the Initial Shares (as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement) acquired by Investor (or an affiliate thereof) as part of the Initial Closing (as defined in the Securities
Purchase Agreement) shall be voted in respect of this matter nor should such Owned Shares be considered present or represented by proxy at the Stockholders Meeting for purposes of this matter), (ii) against any other proposal that would
reasonably be expected to impede, frustrate, prevent or nullify the Securities Purchase Agreement or the transactions contemplated thereby, (iii) in favor of amending the Certificate of Incorporation of the Company to increase the size of the
Company Board to ten (10) directors, (iv) in favor of the election of directors to the Company Board, (v) in favor of the ratification of the choice of the Company’s accountants, (vi) in favor of an increase in the
authorized share capital of the Company of 40,000,000 shares of Common Stock and (vii) in favor of the approval of the Company’s employee stock incentive plan. The voting covenant set forth in this Section 1.1 and the proxy
granted pursuant to Section 1.2 of this Agreement shall not be effective for any other purpose and Investor retains the right to vote in any manner on all other matters. 







 1.2. Irrevocable Proxy. Solely with respect to the matters described in
Section 1.1, Investor hereby irrevocably appoints William V. Carey (or any nominee designated by William V. Carey) as Investor’s lawful agent, attorney and proxy with full power of substitution and resubstitution, for and in the
name, place and stead of Investor, to the full extent of Investor’s voting rights with respect to Investor’s Owned Shares (which proxy is irrevocable and which appointment is coupled with an interest, including for purposes of
Section 212 of the Delaware General Corporation Law) to vote all Investor’s Owned Shares solely on the matters, and in the manner, described in Section 1.1, and in accordance herewith. The Company shall use its reasonable best
efforts to cause William V. Carey to vote Investor’s Owned Shares on the matters, and in the manner, described in Section 1.1, and in accordance herewith. Investor hereby revokes any proxies previously granted that would otherwise
conflict with the proxy contemplated pursuant to this Section 1.2 and agrees to execute any further agreement, form, notice or other such requirement reasonably necessary or appropriate to confirm and effectuate the grant of the proxy
contained herein. Investor hereby acknowledges that the irrevocable proxy set forth in this Section 1.2 is given in connection with the execution of the Securities Purchase Agreement, and that such irrevocable proxy is given to secure
the performance of the duties of Investor under the Securities Purchase Agreement. Investor hereby further acknowledges that the irrevocable proxy is coupled with an interest and may under no circumstances be revoked. Investor hereby ratifies and
confirms all things or acts that such irrevocable proxy may lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue hereof to the extent consistent with this Agreement. To the extent that Investor is the beneficial but not the record owner of any Owned Shares,
Investor shall cause the record owner of any such Owned Shares to vote and grant a proxy with respect to Owned Shares in the same manner as described above. For the avoidance of doubt, no proxy shall be given pursuant to this Section 1.2
in respect of the Initial Shares (as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement) acquired by Investor (or an affiliate thereof) as part of the Initial Closing (as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement) with respect to the matter described
in clause (i) of Section 1.1. 
 1.3. Disclosure Obligations. Investor shall discharge the reporting
obligations laid down in Articles 69 and 69a of the Polish Act of 29 July 2005 on Public Offering, Conditions Governing the Introduction of Financial Instruments to Organized Trading, and Public Companies (the “Polish Public Offering
Act”) by sending a notification to the Company and the Polish Financial Supervision Authority in connection with the fact that the Company and Investor together with certain other entities are found to be concert parties in the meaning of
Article 87.1.5 and/or 87.1.6 of the Polish Public Offering Act. Such notification shall be submitted by Investor within the deadline mentioned in Article 69.1 of the Polish Public Offering Act and shall contain all information required under
Articles 69.4-5 and/or 69a.2, as applicable, of the Polish Public Offering Act. For the avoidance of doubt, the obligations to be assumed by Investor under this Section 1.3 shall be treated as an indication as referred to in Article 87.3
of the Public Offering Act. The Company (i) acknowledges that Investor will rely on information provided by the Company in this Agreement, and that may otherwise be provided by the Company to Investor with the explicit purpose of being included
in notifications delivered by Investor under the Polish Public Offering Act, in making notifications provided under the Polish Public Offering Act, (ii) represents and warrants to Investor that the information referred to in clause
(i) above is accurate and (iii) agrees that Investor shall have no liability for the inaccuracy of the information referred to in clause (i) above.

any kind to which Investor is a party or by which Investor or the Owned Shares may be bound or (d) conflict with or violate any organizational document or law, rule, regulation, order, judgment or decree applicable to Investor or pursuant to
which any of its properties or assets are bound. The Owned Shares are not, and with respect to Owned Shares acquired after the date hereof will not be, subject to any other agreement (including any voting agreement, stockholders agreement,
irrevocable proxy or voting trust) that would adversely affect the ability of Investor to perform its obligations hereunder.

 2.5. No Encumbrances. The Owned Shares and the certificates representing such shares
are now, and at all times during the term of this Agreement will be, held by Investor, or by a nominee or custodian for the benefit of Investor, free and clear of all encumbrances, proxies, voting trusts or agreements, understandings or arrangements
or any other rights whatsoever that would adversely affect the ability of Investor to perform its obligations hereunder. 
 2.6.
Absence of Litigation. There are no actions or lawsuits pending or, to the knowledge of Investor threatened, against or affecting Investor before or by any court or governmental authority that could reasonably be expected to impair the
ability of Investor to perform its obligations hereunder.

related parties (as defined in Section 4.4 below) owns or has any interest in or has agreed to acquire shares of Common Stock or any voting rights attaching thereto, other than with respect to certain affiliates of Investor and as set
forth in a voting agreement between the Company and such certain affiliates of Investor entered into as of the date hereof. None of such persons is party to any agreement or understanding (whether or not legally enforceable) referred to in Article
87.1.5 and/or 87.1.6 of the Polish Public Offering Act.

no other proceedings on the part of the Company are necessary to authorize this Agreement or to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby. This Agreement has been duly and validly executed and delivered by the Company and constitutes a valid
and binding agreement of the Company, except that enforceability may be subject to general principles of equity. 
 3.2. No
Conflicts. The execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Company does not, and the performance of the terms of this Agreement by the Company will not, (a) require the Company to obtain the consent or approval of, or make any filing

subsidiaries’ property or assets are bound.

sell, transfer, pledge, hypothecate, encumber (except as set forth on Attachment A or as a result of this Agreement), assign or otherwise dispose of (including, without limitation, by gift, merger, consolidation or reorganization), or enter
into any contract, option or other agreement providing for the sale, transfer, pledge, hypothecation, encumbrance, assignment or other direct or indirect disposition of or any interest in, or limitation on the voting rights of, or otherwise transfer

(c) grant any proxies or powers of attorney or other authorization in or with respect to the Owned Shares, deposit any Owned Shares into a voting trust or enter into a voting agreement or arrangement with respect to any Owned Shares or
(d) take any other action, that would in any way restrict, limit or interfere with the performance of its obligations hereunder. If any involuntary Transfer of any of the Owned Shares occurs (including, but not limited to, a sale by
Investor’s trustee in any bankruptcy, or a sale to a purchaser at any creditor’s or court sale or any sale or transfer by operation of law, including, without limitation, by will or intestacy), the transferee (which term, as used herein,
shall include any and all transferees and subsequent transferees of the initial transferee) shall take and hold such Owned Shares subject to all of the restrictions, liabilities and covenants under this Agreement, which shall continue in full force
and effect until valid termination of this Agreement. Any Transfer in violation of this Section 4.1 shall be void. 

4.2. No Additional Acquisitions. Without prejudice to any obligations which Investor may have under any applicable laws (including
but not limited to any insider dealings rules), until valid termination of this Agreement, other than as contemplated or permitted by the Securities Purchase Agreement, Investor shall not directly or indirectly, either alone or together with any
other person, without the Company’s prior written consent:

	 	4.2.3.	enter into an agreement or understanding (whether or not legally enforceable) referred to in Article 87.1.5 and/or 87.1.6 of the Polish Public Offering Act.

4.5. Additional Shares. Without prejudice to Investor’s obligations under Section 4.2, Investor hereby agrees

shares of Common Stock, beneficial ownership thereof or any other interest therein, (ii) the number of any additional Owned Shares of which Investor acquires beneficial ownership by itself and/or subsidiaries or related persons (as defined in
Section 4.4 above) on or after the date hereof and (iii) any proposed permitted Transfer contemplated in Section 4.1 of the Owned Shares, beneficial ownership thereof or any other interest therein. 

4.6. No Limitations on Actions. Investor signs this Agreement solely in its capacity as the record and/or beneficial owner, as
applicable, of the Owned Shares; this Agreement shall not limit or otherwise affect the actions of Investor in any other capacity; and nothing herein shall limit or affect the Company’s rights in connection with the Securities Purchase
Agreement. 
 4.7. No Contrary Transfer; Change in Common Stock. Investor shall not request that the Company register the
transfer (book-entry or otherwise) of any certificate or uncertificated interest representing any of the Owned Shares, and the Company shall not recognize any such transfer, unless such transfer is made in compliance with this Agreement. In the
event of a stock dividend or distribution, or any change in the Common Stock by reason of any stock dividend, split-up, recapitalization, combination, exchange of shares or the like, the term “Owned Shares” as used in this Agreement shall
refer to and include the Owned Shares as well as all such stock dividends and distributions and any shares into which or for which any or all of the Owned Shares may be changed or exchanged or which are received in such transaction.

5.7. Governing Law. 
  

	 	5.7.1.	This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal, procedural and substantive laws of the State of New York without regard to any
conflicts of laws concepts which would apply the substantive law of some other jurisdiction. 


  
 -8-










	 	5.7.2.	Each of the parties hereto irrevocably submits to the jurisdiction of the United States District Court and other courts of the United States sitting in the State of New

such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO REQUEST A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LITIGATION WITH RESPECT TO THIS AGREEMENT AND REPRESENTS THAT COUNSEL HAS BEEN CONSULTED SPECIFICALLY AS TO THIS
WAIVER. 

 5.8. Specific Performance. Each of the parties hereto acknowledges and agrees that damages will
not be an adequate remedy for any material breach or violation of this Agreement if such material breach or violation would cause immediate and irreparable harm (an “Irreparable Breach”). Accordingly, in the event of a threatened or
ongoing Irreparable Breach, each party hereto shall be entitled to seek equitable relief of a kind appropriate in light of the nature of the ongoing or threatened Irreparable Breach, which relief may include, without limitation, specific performance
or injunctive relief. Such remedies shall not be the parties’ exclusive remedies, but shall be in addition to all other remedies provided in this Agreement. 
 5.9. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original but all of which together shall be considered one and the same agreement and

facsimile transmission or by scan and exchange of signatures by email. 
 5.10. Descriptive Headings. The descriptive
headings used herein are inserted for convenience of reference only and are not intended to be part of or to affect the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement. 
 5.11. Severability. Any term or provision of this Agreement that is invalid or unenforceable in any situation in any jurisdiction shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the remaining
terms and provisions hereof or the validity or enforceability of the offending term or provision in any other situation or in any other jurisdiction. If the final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction declares that any term or provision
hereof is invalid or unenforceable, the parties hereto agree that the court making such determination shall have the power to limit the term or provision, to delete specific words or phrases, or to replace any invalid or unenforceable term or
provision with a term or provision that is valid and enforceable and that comes closest to expressing the intention of the invalid or unenforceable term or provision, and this Agreement shall be enforceable as so modified. In the event such court
does not exercise the power granted to it in the prior sentence, the parties hereto agree to replace such invalid or unenforceable term or provision with a valid and enforceable term or provision that will achieve, to the extent possible, the
economic, business and other purposes of such invalid or unenforceable term. 

  
 -9-









 5.12. No Obligation to Exercise Rights. Notwithstanding any provision in this
Agreement to the contrary, nothing in this Agreement shall obligate Investor to exercise any right to acquire shares of Common Stock. 
 5.13. Further Assurances. From time to time, at another party’s request and without further consideration, each party hereto shall execute and deliver such additional documents and take all
such further lawful action as may be necessary to consummate and make effective, in the most expeditious manner practicable, the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. 
 5.14. Remedies Cumulative. All rights, powers and remedies provided under this Agreement or otherwise available in respect hereof at law or in equity shall be cumulative and not alternative, and
the exercise of any thereof by any party hereto shall not preclude the simultaneous or later exercise of any other such right, power or remedy by such party. 
 5.15. No Waiver. The failure of any party hereto to exercise any right, power or remedy provided under this Agreement or otherwise available in respect hereof at law or in equity, or to insist upon
compliance by any other party hereto with its obligations hereunder, and any custom or practice of the parties at variance with the terms hereof, shall not constitute a waiver by such party of its right to exercise any such or other right, power or
remedy or to demand such compliance. 
 5.16. No Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement is not intended to be for the
benefit of, and shall not be enforceable by, any person or entity who or which is not a party hereto. 
 5.17. Fees and
Expenses. All costs and expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby shall be paid by the party incurring the cost or expense. 

5.18. Costs of Enforcement. In the event that legal proceedings are commenced by any party to this Agreement against any other
party to this Agreement in connection with this Agreement, the non-prevailing party in such proceedings shall pay the reasonable attorneys’ fees and other reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by the prevailing party in such
proceedings. 
 5.19. Effectiveness. This Agreement will become effective upon the earlier of (i) Initial Closing (as
defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement) and (ii) any Russian Standard Transfer. In the event that the Securities Purchase Agreement is terminated prior to the Initial Closing, this Agreement shall become null and void in all respects.
