Corporation, a Washington corporation ("WWC"), Hutchison Telecommunications PCS
(USA) Limited, a British Virgin Islands corporation (the "Investor"; WWC and the
Investor being referred to herein as the "Shareholders"), and Western PCS
Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the "Company").

         WHEREAS, the Shareholders, Hutchison Telecommunications Limited, a Hong
Kong corporation ("HTL"), the owner of 100% of the issued and outstanding share
capital of the Investor, and the Company have entered into a Purchase Agreement
dated as of October 14, 1997 (the "Purchase Agreement"), pursuant to which the
Investor has agreed to purchase from the Company, and the Company has agreed to
issue and sell to the Investor, 2,484 shares of the Company's Common Stock,
$0.001 par value ("Common Stock"), representing 19.9% of the Company's
outstanding shares of Common Stock after giving effect to such issuance and
sale, all on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Purchase
Agreement. WWC is the owner of 10,000 shares of Common Stock, which will
represent 80.1% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock after giving effect to
the issuance and sale of the foregoing shares of Common Stock to the Investor.

         WHEREAS, the Shareholders and the Company wish to set forth certain
agreements concerning the management and control of the Company, the ownership
and transfer of shares of Common Stock, and certain other matters as provided
herein.

         NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual and dependent promises
set forth herein, each Shareholder hereby agrees with each other Shareholder and
with the Company, and the Company hereby agrees with each of the Shareholders,
as follows:


1.       EFFECTIVE DATE OF AGREEMENT.

         This Agreement shall become effective upon the Closing, pursuant to and

the determination of the Private Market Value. Each party shall deliver a notice
to the other appointing its appraiser within ten Business Days after the
Appraisal Procedure is invoked. If, within 30 days after appointment of the two
appraisers, they are unable to agree upon the Private Market Value, then (i) if
the difference between the two appraisers' respective determinations is an
amount that is not greater than 20% of the average of such determinations, such
average shall be binding and conclusive on the Company and the Shareholders or

chosen shall be given within 30 days after the selection of such third
appraiser. The decisions of the appraisers with the two closest determinations
shall be averaged and such average shall be binding and conclusive on the
Company and the Shareholders. Each appraiser selected shall have expertise in

borne by WWC, (ii) the cost of the appraiser selected by the Investor shall be

3. BOARD COMPOSITION; ELECTION OF REPRESENTATIVES TO THE BOARD; COMPENSATION
COMMITTEE.

         (a) Pursuant to the Company's by-laws, the Board shall be constituted
of ten (10) directors, subject to increase as provided in this Section 3. The
Investor shall initially have the right to designate to the Board two directors
(its initial designees being Mr. Canning Fok and Mr. Hans Snook), which
directors will be appointed or elected to the Board effective as of the Closing.
Thereafter, the number of directors whom the Investor is entitled to designate
to the Board shall be adjusted in proportion with the aggregate Percentage
Ownership of the Investor. For purposes of this adjustment, the Investor shall
be entitled to retain the right to designate two directors until its aggregate
Percentage Ownership is less than 15% and the right to designate a single
director until its aggregate Percentage Ownership is less than 9.95%. The
Investor shall gain the right to designate an additional director (and the Board
shall in each case be expanded by one member to accommodate such new designee)
when the Investor's aggregate Percentage Ownership exceeds 27.25%, 33.33%,
38.5%, 42.9%, 46.67%, and 50%. Each Shareholder shall vote all of the Common
Stock over which such Shareholder has voting control (and shall take all other
necessary or desirable actions within such Shareholder's control, whether in the
capacity of a stockholder, director or member of a board committee of the
Company or otherwise, and including attendance at meetings in person or by proxy
for purposes of obtaining a quorum and execution of written consents in lieu of
meetings) for the election, removal and replacement of the Board designees named
by the Investor or WWC, as the case may be, all as directed by the Investor or
WWC, as the case may be, from time to time in accordance with this Section 3.
The rights and obligations of WWC and the Investor under this Section 3 shall
terminate when the Investor's Percentage Ownership exceeds 50% or otherwise as
set forth in Section 14 or 15.


                                       10

         (b) Prior to the occurrence of a Terminating Reduction, the Company
shall maintain a compensation committee of the Board, a majority of the members
of which shall be directors who are not Senior Officers or senior executive
officers of the Company.


4.       CERTAIN AFFILIATE TRANSACTIONS.

         Prior to the occurrence of a Terminating Reduction, the Company shall
not, without the prior approval of at least one of the Investor's designated
directors, enter into:

         (a) Any transaction or series of related transactions (other than those
in accordance with the terms of the Intercompany Agreements) involving the
Company or any of its Subsidiaries, on the one hand, and WWC or any of its
Affiliates (other than the Company and Subsidiaries of the Company), on the
other hand, that (i) is not provided for in the approved annual Operating Plan
and Budget then in effect and involves an amount in excess of $500,000, or (ii)
is not on terms at least as favorable to the Company as would be obtained in an
arm's length transaction with an independent third party.

         (b) Any employment agreement with any Senior Officer who at the time
has an Employment Agreement.


5.       TRANSFER.

         The Common Stock may not be Transferred by any Shareholder except as
provided in this Section 5.

         (a) Each Shareholder (and each Permitted Affiliate Transferee of such
Shareholder) shall have the unrestricted right to Transfer its Common Stock to
any Permitted Affiliate Transferee of such Shareholder, provided, that each such
transferee shall become bound by and entitled to all the rights and obligations
hereunder applicable to such Shareholder.

         (b) The Investor and its Permitted Affiliate Transferees shall have the
right to Transfer shares of Common Stock to Persons other than Permitted
Affiliate Transferees of the Investor in a transaction other than an Excepted
Transfer, provided, that (i) such Transfer shall be subject to the rights of
first offer or, if applicable, first refusal under Section 6 hereof in favor of
WWC or its designees and (ii) the transferee shall be subject to the approval of
WWC (which approval will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed).

         (c) WWC and its Permitted Affiliate Transferees shall have the right to
Transfer shares of Common Stock to Persons other than Permitted Affiliate
Transferees of WWC in transactions other than Excepted Transfers, subject to the


                                       11


<PAGE>   14
rights of first offer or, if applicable, first refusal under Section 6 hereof in
favor of the Investor.

         (d) No Shareholder shall effect any pledge, mortgage, assignment by way
of security, or other lien or encumbrance of any nature ("Lien") (other than
such as may be deemed to arise pursuant to this Agreement) on or with respect to
any shares of Common Stock owned by it, provided, that WWC shall be permitted,
when required under instruments governing its indebtedness for borrowed money,
to place Liens on shares of Common Stock owned by it to secure such indebtedness
if such Liens and all rights of the secured party thereunder with respect to the
Common Stock are subject to the rights and obligations of the Shareholders under
this Agreement, and provided further, that in connection with any foreclosure
or enforcement of remedies by such secured lender upon the shares subject to
such Lien, the Tag Along Right and the Drag Along Right (but not the other
rights and obligations of the parties hereunder) shall terminate. In connection
with any such Transfer by WWC to a secured lender by way of the granting of a
Lien (but not any action by such secured lender to foreclose or enforce remedies
on, or subsequently Transfer, the shares of Common Stock subject to its Lien),
no rights of first offer, first refusal, Tag Along Rights or other rights of any
other Shareholder hereunder shall be applicable.

         (e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 5, but
subject, in the case of WWC, to Sections 12(h) and 12(j), each Shareholder shall
have the right to Transfer shares of Common Stock at any time in an Excepted
Transfer.

         (f) The Shareholders and the Company each agree to cooperate in all
reasonable respects (without any obligation to incur any liability or expense)
in connection with any Transfer by a Shareholder permitted by this Section 5, so
as to enable such Transfer to be effected on an optimal basis for tax and other
applicable regulatory purposes.


6.       RIGHTS OF FIRST OFFER AND FIRST REFUSAL.

         (a) Investor.

                  (i) If the Investor proposes to Transfer shares of Common
Stock (the shares which are the subject of a proposed Transfer being hereinafter
referred to as "Sale Shares"), other than to a Permitted Affiliate Transferee
and other than by means of an Excepted Transfer, then the Investor shall first
offer to Transfer such Sale Shares to WWC or its designees in accordance with
the procedures for rights of first offer set forth in Section 6(c) hereof.

                  (ii) In the event such proposed Transfer by the Investor shall
arise as a result of the Investor's receipt of an unsolicited written offer from
a third party or group of related third parties to purchase shares of Common
Stock in a bona fide Transfer that would not be an Excepted Transfer (an
"Unsolicited Bid"), which the Investor intends to accept, the Investor shall
first offer to Transfer such Sale Shares to 

                                       12


<PAGE>   15

WWC (or its designees) in accordance with the procedures for rights of first  
refusal set forth in Section 6(d) hereof.

         (b) WWC.

                  (i) If WWC proposes to make a Transfer of Sale Shares (other
than to a Permitted Affiliate Transferee or by means of an Excepted Transfer
(subject to Sections 12(i) and 12(k) hereof)) WWC shall first offer to Transfer
such Sale Shares to the Investor in accordance with the procedures for rights of
first offer set forth in Section 6(c) hereof.

                  (ii) In the event such proposed Transfer by WWC shall arise as
a result of an Unsolicited Bid to WWC which WWC intends to accept, WWC shall
first offer to Transfer such Sale Shares to the Investor in accordance with the
procedures for rights of first refusal set forth in Section 6(d) hereof.

         (c) Procedures for Rights of First Offer.

                  (i) Any Shareholder (the "Seller") desiring to Transfer any
Sale Shares held by such Seller in a transaction subject to rights of first
offer pursuant to Section 6(a)(i) or 6(b)(i) above shall give written notice (a
"Sales Notice") to the other Shareholders that the Seller desires to effect such
a Transfer (a "Sale") and setting forth the number of Sale Shares proposed to be
Transferred by the Seller in such Sale and the purchase price per share in cash
it desires for such Sale Shares (the "Sales Price").

                  (ii) The receipt of the Sales Notice by each other Shareholder
shall constitute an offer revocable only as provided below in this Section 6(c)
(the "Offer") by the Seller to sell to such Shareholder for cash the relevant
Sale Shares at the Sales Price. Each Shareholder, or any group of one or more
Shareholders, receiving an Offer shall have a 30-day period (the "Order Period")
in which to give a written notice (a "Bid") to the Seller, which written notice
shall state the number of Sale Shares that such Shareholder or group of
Shareholders proposes to purchase at the Sales Price; provided, however, that
all Bids must in the aggregate be for all of the Sale Shares the Seller proposes
to Transfer as stated in the Sales Notice, unless the Seller, in its sole
discretion, elects to accept Bids for less than all of the Sale Shares proposed
to be sold.

                  (iii) Upon the receipt of any Bids, which Bids in the
aggregate are for the purchase of not less than all the Sale Shares, the Seller
shall have the right to solicit offers for the Sale Shares from any third party
(a "Third-Party Offer") for a period of 90 days from the date the Order Period
expires (the "Third-Party Offer Period"). To the extent the Seller receives a
Third-Party Offer and such Third-Party Offer contains a proposed sales price in
excess of the Sales Price, then the Seller shall have the right to sell the Sale
Shares to the third party pursuant to its Third-Party Offer. If no Bids are
delivered during the Order Period, or if the Bids received are not in the
aggregate for all the Sale Shares, then the Seller shall be entitled to accept,
in its 


                                       13


<PAGE>   16
sole discretion, any Third-Party Offer it so chooses within the Third-Party
Offer Period at a sales price and on terms and conditions no less favorable to
the Seller than those set forth in the Sales Notice. If such sale pursuant to a
Third-Party Offer is not consummated within 60 days from the end of the
Third-Party Offer Period (the "Third Party Closing Period") (or such longer
period as may be provided pursuant to clause (v) below), then no such sale shall
be consummated without once again following the procedures under this Section 6.

                  (iv) The Shareholder or group of Shareholders providing a Bid
which is accepted by the Seller shall be under a binding obligation to purchase
and pay for all the Sale Shares accepted pursuant to their Bid within a 60-day
period (or such longer period as may be provided pursuant to clause (v) below)
from the date on which the purchasing Shareholder (or group of Shareholders)
receives written notice of the Seller's acceptance of their Bid (the "Bid
Closing Period"), which notice shall be given promptly after the expiration of
the Third-Party Offer Period if no qualifying Third-Party Offers have been
received or, if earlier, the Seller's determination to accept the Bid. At the
closing of any purchase of the Sale Shares by any purchasing Shareholders, the
Seller shall deliver to the purchasing Shareholders, against receipt of the
purchase price therefor by cash or certified or bank cashier's check, the
certificate or certificates representing the Sale Shares each such purchasing
Shareholder has elected to purchase, properly endorsed for transfer, with all
necessary transfer and documentary stamps affixed, and in a form such that upon
presentation to the Company, the Sale Shares represented thereby may be
registered in the names of the respective purchasers.

                  (v) If the purchase and sale of the Sale Shares pursuant to a
Third-Party Offer or any Bid, as the case may be, is subject to any prior
regulatory approval, consent, waiver, notice or like requirement, then, provided
that the third party or the purchasing Shareholder(s), as the case may be, shall
promptly make any necessary filings or applications for, and diligently pursue,
the satisfaction of such regulatory requirements, the time period during which
such purchase and sale must be consummated shall be extended until the earlier
of (i) five Business Days after all such regulatory requirements have been
satisfied and (ii) 90 days after the expiration of the Third-Party Closing
Period or the Bid Closing Period, as the case may be, provided, that such 90-day
period shall be extended by an additional 90 days upon written request of the
Seller or the third party or the purchasing Shareholder(s), as the case may be,
unless the Seller shall deliver to such third party or Shareholder(s), as the
case may be, an opinion of counsel experienced in the relevant area of law or
regulation that such regulatory requirements cannot be satisfied by such third
party or Shareholder(s), as the case may be.

                  (vi) If the aggregate number of shares offered to be purchased
in all Bids received by the Seller exceeds the number of Sale Shares, and if
such Bids are accepted, the Sale Shares shall be allocated among such Bids pro
rata based on the number of Sale Shares offered to be purchased in each Bid.
Each Bid shall be irrevocable, regardless of whether the number of Sale Shares
to be delivered upon acceptance of such Bid shall be reduced in accordance with
the foregoing, and shall be

                                       14


<PAGE>   17
deemed to constitute a Bid to purchase such lesser number of Sale Shares as
shall be determined on such pro rata basis. Any Shareholder which fails to
deliver a Bid before the expiration of the Order Period shall be deemed to have
elected not to purchase any of the Sale Shares pursuant to the Sales Notice.

         (d) Procedure for Rights of First Refusal.

                  (i) If at any time a Shareholder receives an Unsolicited Bid
to which Section 6(a)(ii) or 6(b)(ii) applies, and which such Shareholder
intends to accept, such Shareholder shall, prior to making any Transfer of Sale
Shares pursuant to such Unsolicited Bid, give written notice (the "Unsolicited
Bid Notice") to the other Shareholders, accompanied by a copy of such
Unsolicited Bid.

                  (ii) An Unsolicited Bid Notice shall constitute an irrevocable
offer of the Shareholder giving such notice to sell the Sale Shares to the other
Shareholders, on the terms and conditions and at the price specified in such
notice (including the exact form and type of consideration offered in the
Unsolicited Bid). A Shareholder making an offer to sell pursuant to an
Unsolicited Bid Notice is hereinafter referred to as an "Offeror-Shareholder",
and a Shareholder receiving such offer pursuant to an Unsolicited Bid Notice is
hereinafter referred to as an "Offeree-Shareholder".

                  (iii) Within 30 days after delivery of the Unsolicited Bid
Notice to the Offeree-Shareholders (the "Exercise Period"), each
Offeree-Shareholder shall have the right, subject to the pro rata allocation of
purchase rights set forth in clause (iv) below, to accept the offer pursuant to
an Unsolicited Bid Notice as to all or any portion of the Sale Shares, by notice
to the Offeror-Shareholder, with copies to each other Offeree- Shareholder and
the Company. Each Offeree-Shareholder shall specify in such notice any maximum
number of Sale Shares such Offeree-Shareholder is willing to purchase.

                  (iv) Each election to purchase Sale Shares pursuant to this
Section 6(d) shall be irrevocable, regardless of whether the number of Sale
Shares deliverable upon the exercise of such election shall be reduced in
accordance with the provisions of this clause (iv), and shall be deemed to
constitute an election to purchase such lesser number of Sale Shares as shall be
determined in accordance with this clause (iv). If an Offeree-Shareholder shall
fail to deliver notice of its election to purchase Sale Shares before the
expiration of the Exercise Period, it shall be deemed to have elected not to
purchase any Sale Shares pursuant to the relevant Unsolicited Bid Notice. If
elections to purchase more than 100% of the Sale Shares are made by the Offeree
Shareholders, the right to purchase Sale Shares shall be allocated among the
Offeree-Shareholder(s) electing to purchase Sale Shares pro rata based on the
number of Sale Shares each has elected to purchase. The Offeree-Shareholders
electing to purchase Sale Shares shall be under a binding obligation to purchase
and pay for all the Sale Shares accepted pursuant to their elections within 60
days after the expiration of the Exercise Period (the "Shareholder Closing
Period") (or such longer period as may be provided pursuant to clause (vii)
below).


                                       15


<PAGE>   18
                  (v) All timely elections by Offeree-Shareholders to purchase
Sale Shares shall be binding on the Offeror-Shareholder, provided, that such
elections shall not be binding on the Offeror-Shareholder if the
Offeree-Shareholders do not in the aggregate elect to purchase all of the Sale
Shares on the terms and conditions of the Unsolicited Bid Notice, including the
exact form and type of consideration. In such event, no sales pursuant to such
elections need be made by the Offeror-Shareholder, and the Offeror-Shareholder
shall be entitled to sell such Sale Shares to the Person(s) named in the
Unsolicited Bid Notice in accordance with clause (vi) (and, if applicable,
clause (vii)) below at a sales price and on terms and conditions (including the
form of consideration) no less favorable to the Offeror-Shareholder than those
in the Unsolicited Bid Notice. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
Offeror-Shareholder may, by written notice to the Offeree-Shareholders within 10
days after the Offeree-Shareholders give notice of their elections to purchase
Sale Shares, waive its right not to sell that part of the Sale Shares for which
elections have been made, and accept and confirm all such elections so made, in
which case the time period set forth in clause (iv) above shall run from the
date such notice is delivered by the Offeror-Shareholder rather than the
expiration of the Exercise Period (or for such longer period as may be
applicable in accordance with clause (vii) below). If the form of consideration
to be paid by the Person(s) making the Unsolicited Bid shall differ from that
described in the Unsolicited Bid Notice in respect of any non-cash component
specified in the Unsolicited Bid Notice, and if the Offeree-Shareholders were
unable to deliver the exact form and type of non-cash consideration provided for
in such notice, but would be able to provide the new form of consideration, the
Sale Shares shall be required to be reoffered to the Offeree-Shareholders in
accordance with this Section 6(d).

                  (vi) Any Transfer of Sale Shares to the prospective transferee
named in the Unsolicited Bid Notice shall be consummated within a period of 60
days after the expiration of the Exercise Period (the "Unsolicited Bidder
Closing Period") (or such longer period as may be provided pursuant to clause
(vii) below).

                  (vii) If the purchase and sale of such Sale Shares pursuant to
an Unsolicited Bid or any election by an Offeree-Shareholder, as the case may
be, is subject to any prior regulatory approval, consent, waiver, notice or like
requirement, then, provided that the third party making such Unsolicited Bid or
such Offeree-Shareholder, as the case may be, shall promptly make any necessary
filings or applications for, and diligently pursue, the satisfaction of such
regulatory requirements, the time period during which such purchase and sale
must be consummated shall be extended until the earlier of (i) five Business
Days after all such regulatory requirements have been satisfied and (ii) 90 days
after the expiration of the Unsolicited Bidder Closing Period or Shareholder
Closing Period, as the case may be, provided, that such 90-day period shall be
extended by an additional 90 days upon written request of the
Offeror-Shareholder, the third party or the purchasing Offeree-Shareholder(s),
as the case may be, unless the Offeror-Shareholder shall deliver to such third
party or Offeree-Shareholder(s), as the case may be, an opinion of counsel
experienced in the relevant area of law or regulation that such regulatory
requirements cannot be satisfied by such third party or Offeree-Shareholder(s),
as the case may be.


                                       16


<PAGE>   19
                  (viii) At the closing of any purchase of the Sale Shares by
any Offeree-Shareholders, the Offeror-Shareholder shall deliver to the
Offeree-Shareholders, against receipt of the purchase price therefor by cash or
certified or bank cashier's check, in respect of the cash portion of such
purchase price and such other relevant instruments or securities as are required
to comprise the consideration offered in the Unsolicited Bid, the certificate or
certificates representing the Sale Shares each such Offeree-Shareholder has
elected to purchase, properly endorsed for transfer, with all necessary transfer
and documentary stamps affixed, and in a form such that upon presentation to the
Company the Sale Shares represented thereby may be registered in the names of
the respective purchasers.

         (f) Exclusions. The provisions of this Section 6 shall not apply to:

                  (i) a Transfer permitted by the provisions of Section 5(a),
5(d) or 5(e) hereof;

                  (ii) a Transfer of shares of Common Stock between WWC and the
Investor;

                  (iii) a Transfer by WWC if the Investor is unable to purchase
or own all of the Sale Shares as a result of its inability to satisfy any
applicable legal or regulatory requirements for such purchase or ownership
within the time period specified in Sections 6(c)(v) or 6(d)(vii), as the case
may be.

         (g) Tag Along Rights Unaffected. The Tag Along Rights of the Investor
shall not be deemed waived, limited or otherwise adversely affected by any
determination by the Investor not to exercise an applicable right of first offer
or first refusal under this Section 6 or any inability of the Investor to
deliver any required non-cash consideration in the exact form and type offered
in an Unsolicited Bid to WWC.


7.       DRAG ALONG RIGHT.

         (a) If at any time WWC proposes to make a bona fide Transfer (the
"Proposed Transfer") of all the shares of Common Stock owned by it and all other
shareholders of the Company which are subject to drag along rights in favor of
WWC to a third party or group of related third parties (the "Proposed
Transferee") WWC shall have the right (the "Drag Along Right"), subject to the
further requirements of this Section 7, to require all (but not less than all)
of the other Shareholders (which term includes, for purposes of this Section 7,
all other shareholders of the Company which are subject to drag along rights in
favor of WWC) to sell in the Proposed Transfer all (but not less than all) of
the shares of Common Stock then owned by such other Shareholders on the same
terms and conditions per share as are obtained by WWC. Each Shareholder agrees
to take all reasonable steps necessary to enable such Shareholder to comply with
the provisions of this Section 7, including executing and performing a purchase
and sale, merger or other applicable acquisition agreement on 


                                       17


<PAGE>   20
the same terms as WWC. WWC and the Investor each agree to make full disclosure
to the other concerning the details of any relationship and dealings it may have
with the other party or parties to the Proposed Transfer. WWC shall keep each
other Shareholder advised in writing of, and consult on a timely basis with each
other Shareholder concerning, any Transfer with respect to which it has
exercised the Drag Along Right.

         (b) The Investor, WWC and John W. Stanton each hereby agree that for a
period of one year after the closing of any transaction in which the Drag Along
Right is exercised and all the Common Stock of the Company subject to drag along
rights in favor of WWC is Transferred solely for cash, such Person shall not
acquire or hold, directly or indirectly, any equity interest in any entity
which, directly or indirectly, acquired in the transaction which gave rise to
the Drag Along Right the continuing business of the Company, other than in
nominal amounts of publicly traded securities.

         (c) This Section 7 shall only apply to the Investor if the
consideration to be received by the shareholders of the Company in the Proposed
Transfer:

                  (i) comprises solely cash and the gross amount to be received
by the Investor is sufficient to provide it with a return of its invested
capital on the shares of Common Stock sold by it, together with an internal rate
of return thereon of at least 23%; or

                  (ii) comprises solely equity securities of the surviving
entity in such transaction ("Consideration Securities"), representing 50% or
less of the total outstanding voting power of such entity after giving effect to
the transaction, and (A) the value of such Consideration Securities to be
received by the Investor is sufficient to provide it with an implied return of
its invested capital on the shares of Common Stock sold by it, together with an
internal rate of return thereon of at least 15% (the value of the Consideration
Securities being measured for this purpose as of the date immediately preceding
the announcement of the Proposed Transfer transaction, (x) if there is a public
trading market for such Consideration Securities, as an amount equal to the
average of the mean of the high and low sales prices of such Consideration
Securities on the principal market on which such securities are traded on each
of the 30 consecutive trading days immediately preceding the announcement of the
transaction or (y) if there is no such public trading market, as mutually agreed
by WWC and the Investor within 14 days after the definitive terms of the
transaction have been announced or, if not mutually agreed within such period,
as determined pursuant to a private market value appraisal in the same manner as
the Appraisal Procedure (with the expense of such appraisal to be borne by WWC))
and (B) the Investor is provided with demand registration rights with respect to
the Consideration Securities received by it containing terms and conditions
substantially the same as those in Section 11, which rights shall be exercisable
twice in any 12-month period until all of the Consideration Securities received
by the Investor have been Transferred to transferees who would not be entitled
to the benefit of such registration rights under Section 15(a) or can be
Transferred in Public Sales to U.S. persons in the 


                                       18


<PAGE>   21
United States without registration under the Securities Act and without
imposition of volume limitations under Rule 144 under the Securities Act; or

                  (iii) comprises solely Consideration Securities representing
more than 50% of the total outstanding voting power of the surviving entity
after giving effect to the transaction, and either (A) if such Consideration
Securities are not a class of equity securities which, after giving effect to
the transaction, has a public float representing at least 15% of the outstanding
equity securities of such class, the rights and obligations of the Investor
hereunder shall continue in effect and there is substantial management
continuity from the Company to such surviving entity, or (B) if the
Consideration Securities are a class of equity securities which, after giving
effect to the transaction, has a public float representing at least 15% of the
outstanding securities of such class, the only rights and obligations of the
Investor hereunder which continue in effect shall be those which survive after a
Qualifying IPO as provided in Section 14 hereof; or

                  (iv) comprises a combination of cash and Consideration
Securities, in which case, (A) if the Consideration Securities to be received by
the shareholders of the Company represent 50% or less of the total outstanding
voting power of the surviving entity after giving effect to the transaction,
then (1) the value of such consideration to be received by the Investor is
sufficient to provide it with an implied return of its invested capital on the
shares of Common Stock sold by it, together with an internal rate of return
thereon of at least the sum of (x) 15% and (y) 8% multiplied by the percentage
of the total consideration that is represented by cash, and (2) demand
registration rights are provided to the Investor with respect to such
Consideration Securities as provided in clause (ii) above, or (B) if the
Consideration Securities to be received by the shareholders of the Company
represent more than 50% of the total outstanding voting power of the surviving
entity after giving effect to the transaction, the provisions of (iii) above
shall apply to the Investor and no return of invested capital or internal rate
of return requirement shall apply.

         (d) To exercise the Drag Along Right, WWC shall give each other
Shareholder and the Company a written notice (a "Drag Along Notice") containing
(i) confirmation that the Proposed Transferee proposes to acquire or make an
exchange for all the then outstanding shares of Common Stock owned by WWC and
the Investor (and all other shareholders of the Company which are subject to
drag along rights in favor of WWC), (ii) the name and address of the Proposed
Transferee and (iii) the proposed purchase price, terms of payment and other
material terms and conditions of the Proposed Transferee's offer. Each
Shareholder shall thereafter be obligated, subject, in the case of the Investor,
to Section 7(c) and the other requirements for the exercise of the Drag Along
Right under this Section 7, to sell all (but not less than all) of its shares of
Common Stock as provided in such Drag Along Notice, provided, that the
transaction is consummated within 180 days of delivery of the Drag Along Notice
(or such longer period as may reasonably be required for any applicable FCC
approval or waiver to be obtained and become final). If the sale is not
consummated within such 180-day (or longer) period, then each Shareholder shall
no longer be obligated to sell such Shareholder's shares of Common Stock
pursuant to 


                                       19


<PAGE>   22
that specific Drag Along Notice but shall remain subject to the provisions of
this Section 7 with respect to any subsequent Transfer to which the Drag Along
Right would apply.

         (e) The Drag Along Right and the obligations of the Investor with
respect thereto, shall terminate when there shall be one or more shareholders of
the Company holding in the aggregate a Percentage Ownership of more than 10% of
the outstanding Common Stock, which shareholders are not subject to the Drag
Along Right.


8.       TAG ALONG RIGHT.

         (a) If at any time after the date of this Agreement WWC wishes to
Transfer, in one transaction or a series of related transactions, a majority of
the then issued and outstanding Common Stock to any third party or group of
related third parties (other than pursuant to (i) a Spin-Off Distribution or
(ii) a transaction to which the Drag Along Right is exercised), WWC shall notify
the Investor and the Company, in writing, of such Transfer and its terms and
conditions. Within 20 days after the date that such notice is delivered to the
Investor, the Investor shall notify WWC if it elects to participate in such
Transfer (which notice shall be irrevocable). The Investor, if it so notifies
WWC, shall have the right to sell up to all of the shares of Common Stock owned
by the Investor, as the Investor may elect in its notice to WWC. WWC shall cause
the transferee to purchase at the same time as the purchase from WWC all the
shares of Common Stock elected to be Transferred by the Investor in accordance
with the foregoing on the same terms and conditions per share as are obtained by
WWC and as were specified in WWC's notice to the Investor pursuant to this
Section 8(a).

         (b) If at any time or from time to time after the date of this
Agreement WWC wishes to Transfer, in one transaction or a series of related
transactions, a number of shares of Common Stock representing more than 10% and
up to 50% of the then issued and outstanding Common Stock to any third party or
group of related third parties (other than pursuant to a Spin-Off Distribution),
WWC shall notify the Investor and the Company in writing of such Transfer and
its terms and conditions. Within 20 days of the date that such notice is
delivered to the Investor, the Investor shall notify WWC if it elects to
participate in such Transfer (which notice shall be irrevocable). The Investor,
if it so notifies WWC, shall have the right to Transfer up to the same
percentage of the shares of Common Stock owned by it as are being Transferred by
WWC. WWC shall cause the transferee to purchase at the same time as the purchase
from WWC all the shares of Common Stock elected to be Transferred by the
Investor in accordance with the foregoing on the same terms and conditions per
share as are obtained by WWC and as were specified in WWC's notice to the
Investor pursuant to this Section 8(b).

         (c) WWC and the Investor each agree to make full disclosure to the
other concerning the details of any relationship and dealings it may have with
the proposed transferee in any transaction to which this Section 8 applies. WWC
shall keep the 


                                       20


<PAGE>   23
Investor advised in writing of, and consult on a timely basis with the Investor
concerning, any transfer it may propose to make with respect to which the tag
along rights under this Section 8 may apply.


9.       ISSUANCE OF COMPANY SECURITIES.

         (a) At such times as the Company requires additional funding, the
Company will be responsive to the then existing conditions in the capital
markets in determining how to raise such funding. As a general rule, the Company
will first seek such capital in the form of loans from, or debt offerings in the
capital markets to, third parties (it being understood that WWC and the Company
recognize the rights of the Investor as a result of the events described in
clause (a) of the definition of "Disposition Event"). The Company's second
source of funding shall be debt in the form of loans from its shareholders,
participation in which shall be offered to the Shareholders pro rata based on
their respective Percentage Ownerships in the same manner as under the
preemptive rights for equity offerings provided below in this Section 9. If
additional funding is still required, the Company's third source of funding
shall be equity offerings to the Shareholders pursuant to the preemptive rights
provided below in this Section 9. In no event will the Investor or WWC be
obligated to provide any further funding without their express prior written
consent. It is understood that, notwithstanding the foregoing priorities, the
Board will determine the appropriate timing of any public offerings of the
Company's equity securities, subject to Section 12(j) hereof.

         (b) For purposes of this Section 9, the term "equity securities" shall
include any warrants, options or other rights to acquire equity securities or
debt securities convertible into equity securities, but shall not include
non-voting, non-convertible preferred stock or nominal equity features included
in the terms of a debt financing. This Section 9 shall not apply with respect to
issuances of the Company's equity securities in connection with (i) a Public
Sale by the Company, (ii) a conversion or exchange of any outstanding
securities, (iii) a stock dividend, (iv) a merger, amalgamation, acquisition,
reclassification or other reorganization in which the then-current shareholders
of the Company would continue to be the only shareholders of the Company or
which is effected to carry out an acquisition transaction or (v) the grant or
exercise of stock options or other grants or purchases of equity securities of
the Company pursuant to any stock option, stock purchase or other employee
benefit plan now or hereafter adopted for employees, directors or consultants of
the Company.

         (c) If at any time after the date hereof, the Company proposes to issue
equity securities of any kind (except as provided in Section 9(b)), then, as to
each Shareholder who holds Common Stock at such time, the Company shall:

                  (i) give written notice setting forth in reasonable detail (A)
the designation and all of the terms and provisions of the equity securities
proposed to be issued (the "New Issue Securities"), including, where applicable,
the voting powers,


                                       21


<PAGE>   24
preferences and relative participating, optional or other special rights, and
the qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof and, if applicable, the
dividend rate and maturity; (B) the price and other terms of the proposed sale
of such securities; (C) the amount of such securities proposed to be issued; and
(D) such other material information as may reasonably be requested in order to
evaluate the proposed issuance; and

                  (ii) offer to issue to each such Shareholder a portion of the
New Issue Securities equal to such Shareholder's Percentage Ownership on the
terms and conditions stated in such notice.

         (d) Each such Shareholder that wishes to exercise its purchase rights
hereunder must deliver a written notice to that effect to the Company within 15
days after the date the notice specified in Section 9(c) was delivered by the
Company. If all of the New Issue Securities offered to such Shareholders are not
fully subscribed by such Shareholders, the remaining New Issue Securities (other
than any which WWC or its Permitted Affiliate Transferees may have declined to
purchase as provided in Section 9(f)) will be reoffered (A) first to the
Investor, (whereupon the Investor shall have five days from the date notice of
such reoffer is delivered to the Investor to exercise its purchase right), and
(B) if not fully taken up by the Investor, to the other Shareholders purchasing
their full allotment upon the terms set forth in this Section 9 (whereupon such
Shareholders shall have five days from the date notice of such reoffer is
delivered to such Shareholders to exercise their purchase rights), until all
such New Issue Securities are fully subscribed for or until the Investor and all
such Shareholders have subscribed for all such New Issue Securities which they
desire to purchase. To the extent that the Company offers two or more securities
in units, Shareholders must purchase such units as a whole and will not be given
the opportunity to purchase only one of the securities making up such units.
Such Shareholders must complete the purchase of such New Issue Securities at the
same time in a single closing within five Business Days after the expiration of
the 15-day period referred to in the first sentence of this Section 9(d) (or, if
applicable, the expiration of the five-day period referred to in the second
sentence of this Section 9(d)). If the purchase and sale of such New Issue
Securities by a subscribing Shareholder is subject to any prior regulatory
approval, consent, waiver, notice or like requirement, then provided that such
Shareholder shall promptly make any necessary filings or applications for, and
diligently pursue, the satisfaction of such regulatory requirements, the time
period during which such purchase and sale must be consummated shall be extended
until the earlier of (i) five Business Days after all such regulatory
requirements have been satisfied and (ii) 90 days after the expiration of the
applicable period set forth above for the completion of a purchase by the
Investor or any other subscribing Shareholders, as the case may be, provided,
that such 90-day period shall be extended by an additional 90 days upon written
request of the Investor or such subscribing Shareholder, as the case may be,
unless the Company shall deliver to the Investor or such subscribing
Shareholder, as the case may be, an opinion of counsel experienced in the
relevant area of law or regulation that such regulatory requirements cannot be
satisfied by the Investor or such Shareholder, as the case may be. The closing
of all purchases of the New Issue Securities by 


                                       22


<PAGE>   25
Shareholders shall occur simultaneously, at which time the Company shall deliver
to the purchasing Shareholders, against receipt of the purchase price therefor
by cash or certified or bank cashier's check, duly issued certificate or
certificates representing the New Issue Securities that each such Shareholder
has elected to purchase.

         (e) Upon the expiration of the offering periods described in the first
two sentences of Section 9(d), or upon any failure of any Shareholders to
complete the purchase of New Issue Securities in the time required under Section
9(d), the Company will be free to sell such New Issue Securities that the
Shareholders have not elected to purchase (or have failed to purchase within the
required time) during the 90 days (or applicable longer period under Section
9(d)) following such expiration (or failure) on terms and conditions per share
no more favorable to the purchasers thereof than those offered to the
Shareholders. Any New Issue Securities offered or proposed to be sold by the
Company after such 90-day period (or applicable longer period under Section
9(d)) or on more favorable terms and conditions per share to the purchaser must
be reoffered to the Shareholders pursuant to this Section 9. The election by a
Shareholder not to exercise its purchase rights under this Section 9 in any one
instance shall not affect its rights (other than in respect of a reduction in
its Percentage Ownership) as to any subsequent proposed issuance. Any sale of
such securities by the Company without first giving the Shareholders the rights
described in this Section 9 shall be void and of no force and effect and the
Company shall cause any required correction to the registration and transfer
books of the Company to be effected.

         (f) The right of the Investor and any other Shareholder to purchase New
Issue Securities which have not been subscribed for by other Shareholders under
Section 9(d) shall not apply to New Issue Securities which are not subscribed
for by WWC and which constitute (or represent the right to acquire) an aggregate
of up to 10% of the Company's outstanding Common Stock (after giving effect to
the sale of the New Issue Securities, including pursuant to the exercise of
preemptive rights), provided, that each purchaser of such New Issue Securities
is an entity having substantial assets or business operations in the
telecommunications industry. If WWC shall so agree at the time, such New Issue
Securities may at any time and from time to time be offered and sold by the
Company to purchasers pursuant to the preceding sentence without being required
to be offered first to other Shareholders pursuant to this Section 9. The
provisions of this Section 9 shall not apply to the issuance of equity
securities by the Company if the Investor is unable to subscribe for or own its
portion of the New Issue Securities as a result of its inability to satisfy any
applicable legal or regulatory requirements for such subscription or ownership
within the time period specified in Section 9(d).

         (g) The Company hereby agrees that it shall cause each of its
wholly-owned Subsidiaries to comply with the terms of this Section 9 with
respect to the issuance of any equity securities by such Subsidiary (except for
issuances of stock dividends or in connection with a merger, amalgamation,
reclassification or other reorganization resulting in no reduction in the
Company's direct or indirect equity interest in such Subsidiary).

10.      DISPOSITION TRANSACTIONS.

         In the circumstances specified in this Section 10, WWC or the Company,
as applicable, shall have the right, or be subject to the obligation, as the
case may be, to effect in the manner provided in this Section 10 a Repurchase
(as defined below) or, if applicable, a Public Sale (such Repurchase or Public
Sale being referred to as a "Disposition Transaction") of all (or such portion
as may be specified in this Section 10) of the shares of Common Stock held by
the Investor.

         (a) Upon delivery of notice by the Investor of any exercise of the
Investor's demand registration rights under Section 11(b)(i), the Company shall
proceed to register under the Securities Act, in accordance with Section 11(b),
the amount of Registrable Securities owned by the Investor specified in such
notice delivered by the Investor. WWC (or, if WWC so elects, the Company) will
have the right, exercisable by delivery of written notice to the Investor within
30 days from the Investor's delivery of its notice pursuant to Section 11(b)(i),
to require, concurrently with all actions necessary to effect the registration
of the specified amount of Registrable Securities, the determination of the
Private Market Value pursuant to the Appraisal Procedure. Upon determination of
the Private Market Value, the Company shall complete the registration of such
amount of Registrable Securities (which shall be pursuant to Section 11 and not
this Section 10, which shall not be applicable) unless WWC elects, in its sole
discretion, instead, to effect (or, if WWC so elects, to cause the Company to
effect) a Repurchase of said securities at the Private Market Value per share so
determined; provided, that any such Repurchase shall be completed within six
months of the Investor's delivery of the demand registration notice pursuant to
Section 11(b)(i).

         (b) (i) If at any time Hutchison Whampoa Limited ("HWL"), currently the
100% indirect owner of HTL, shall not, directly or indirectly, (A) hold at least
40% of the outstanding voting power of HTL and the Investor, and (B) be the
single largest shareholder of HTL and the Investor, (the failure to maintain
either of (A) or (B) above being hereinafter referred to as an "Investor Change
of Ownership"), WWC (or, if WWC so elects, the Company) will have the right,
exercisable by delivery of written notice to the Investor within 90 days after
receipt of notice of the Investor Change of Ownership, to effect a Disposition
Transaction covering all (and not less than all) of the shares of Common Stock
owned by the Investor and its Subsidiaries. Such Disposition Transaction shall
be completed within six months of the delivery to the Investor of WWC's or the
Company's, as the case may be, notice of exercise of its right to effect such
Disposition Transaction under this Section 10(b)(i).

                  (ii) Subject to Section 10(d) hereof, if at any time HTL shall
not, directly or indirectly, (A) hold at least 40% of the outstanding voting
power of any Permitted Affiliate Transferee referred to in clause (a)(iii) of
the definition of "Permitted Affiliate Transferee", or (B) be the single largest
shareholder of such Permitted Affiliate Transferee (the failure to maintain
either of (A) or (B) above being hereinafter referred to as an "Affiliate Change
of Ownership"), WWC (or, if WWC so elects, the Company) will have the right,
exercisable by delivery of written notice to such Permitted Affiliate Transferee
within 90 days after receipt of notice of such 


                                       24


<PAGE>   27
Affiliate Change of Ownership, to effect a Disposition Transaction covering all
(and not less than all) of the shares of Common Stock owned by such Permitted
Affiliate Transferee and its Subsidiaries. Such Disposition Transaction shall be
completed within six months of the delivery to the Permitted Affiliate
Transferee of WWC's or the Company's notice of exercise of its right to effect
such Disposition Transaction under this Section 10(b)(ii).

                  (iii) The Investor will give prompt written notice to WWC and
the Company of any Investor Change of Ownership or Affiliate Change of
Ownership.

         (c) Within 90 days after a Disposition Event, the Investor shall have
the right to deliver written notice to WWC demanding that WWC (or, at WWC's
election, the Company) effect a Repurchase. Upon receipt of such notice WWC (or,
at WWC's election; the Company) shall effect a Repurchase of all the shares of
Common Stock owned by the Investor within six months after the delivery to WWC
of such notice. It is understood that if no written notice is delivered within
said 90 day period, neither WWC nor the Company shall have any obligation to
effect a Repurchase with respect to such Disposition Event, nor shall the
Investor have any other rights solely as a result of such Disposition Event.

         (d) In the event that WWC (or, at WWC's election, the Company) has
given notice that it is electing to effect a Disposition Transaction as a result
of an Affiliate Change of Ownership, and if no Investor Change of Ownership has
occurred with respect to HTL, then HTL shall have the prior right, within 30
days after delivery by WWC (or, at WWC's election, the Company) of notice to the
Permitted Affiliate Transferee of such election, to purchase all the shares of
Common Stock owned by the Permitted Affiliate Transferee (and its Subsidiaries)
that are the subject of such Affiliate Change of Ownership, such purchase to be
completed within 90 days after delivery of such notice by WWC (or, if WWC so
elects, the Company).

         (e) (i) If WWC (or, at WWC's election, the Company) has delivered
written notice pursuant to Section 10(b)(i) or 10(b)(ii) hereof of its election
to effect a Disposition Transaction as a result of an Investor Change of
Ownership or an Affiliate Change of Ownership, then the Company shall cause to
be made a Public Sale, using the procedures under Section 11(b) hereof, of all
the shares of Common Stock owned by the Investor and its Subsidiaries, or
(subject to Section 10(d) hereof) by the Permitted Affiliate Transferee and its
Subsidiaries, as the case may be. WWC (or, if WWC so elects, the Company) will
have the right, exercisable by delivery of written notice to the Investor or the
Permitted Affiliate Transferee, as applicable, concurrently with the notice of
WWC's (or at WWC's election, the Company's) election to effect such Disposition
Transaction, to require, concurrently with all actions necessary to effect the
Public Sale of such shares of Common Stock, the determination of the Private
Market Value pursuant to the Appraisal Procedure. Upon determination of the
Private Market Value, the Company shall complete the Public Sale of such shares
of Common Stock unless WWC, in its sole discretion, elects, instead, to effect
(or, if WWC so elects, to cause the Company to effect) a Repurchase of such
Common Stock at the Private Market Value per share so determined; provided, that
any such 


                                       25


<PAGE>   28
Repurchase or Public Sale shall be completed within six months of WWC's (or, at
WWC's election, the Company's) notice of election to effect the Disposition
Transaction.

                  (ii) If the Investor has delivered to WWC written notice
demanding that WWC effect a Repurchase of the Investor's shares of Common Stock
pursuant to Section 10(c), then upon delivery of such notice an appraisal of the
Private Market Value shall be completed as soon as practicable pursuant to the
Appraisal Procedure. The closing of the Repurchase shall be effected promptly
after the determination of the Private Market Value, and in any event within six
months after the written demand for a Repurchase was delivered by the Investor
pursuant to Section 10(c). The Repurchase shall result in the repurchase of all
the relevant shares required to be repurchased at a purchase price per share of
Common Stock equal to the Private Market Value divided by the number of shares
of Common Stock outstanding (on a fully diluted basis) prior to giving effect to
the Repurchase.

         (f) The Disposition Transaction shall be effected by one of the
following methods, as WWC (or at WWC's election, the Company) may elect:

                  (i) Repurchase. WWC (or, at WWC's election, the Company) may
repurchase all the relevant shares of Common Stock to be disposed of in
accordance with this Section 10 at a per share price equal to the Private Market
Value per share determined by dividing the Private Market Value by the number of
shares of Common Stock outstanding, on a fully diluted basis, prior to giving
effect to such transaction (a "Repurchase"). Such repurchase shall be made for
cash or, if WWC (or, at WWC's election, the Company) so elects by written notice
to the Investor for shares of WWC's Class A Common Stock ("Class A Stock"), the
value of which shall be measured as an amount equal to the average of the mean
of the high and low sales prices of the Class A Stock on the NASDAQ National
Market on each of the 30 consecutive Trading Days immediately preceding the
event which gave rise to the Company's right so to effect the Disposition
Transaction or the Disposition Event, as the case may be. At the closing of the
Disposition Transaction, any shares of Class A Stock to be delivered to the
Investor shall be delivered pursuant to an effective resale registration
statement on Form S-3 or other form under the Securities Act appropriate for a
delayed or continuous offering of such shares.

                  (ii) Public Sale. Except in the case of a Disposition
Transaction pursuant to Section 10(a) (with respect to which the Public Sale
shall be consummated pursuant to Section 11, without regard to this Section 10
unless WWC (or, at WWC's election, the Company) has elected to make a
Repurchase) or 10(c) (with respect to which only the provisions relating to
Repurchase are applicable), the Company may effect a Disposition Transaction by
means of a Public Sale of the relevant shares of Common Stock using the
procedures set forth in Section 11(b).

         (g) (i) The Investor shall have the right (the "Demand Event Tag Along
Right"), by delivery of written notice to WWC and the Company within 30 days
after the announcement of a transaction which would give rise to a Demand 


                                       26


<PAGE>   29
Event (a "Demand Event Transaction"), which notice shall be revocable only if
such transaction is not completed, to require that the Investor be permitted to
participate in such transaction through the Transfer (including through an
exchange of shares in a merger) of all of the shares of Common Stock owned by
the Investor as provided in this Section 10(g). Notwithstanding the foregoing,
WWC shall have the right (the "Demand Event Drag Along Right"), by delivery of
written notice to the Investor within 30 days after the announcement of the
Demand Event Transaction (which notice shall be revocable only if such
transaction is not completed), to require the Investor to Transfer all the
shares of Common Stock owned by it in accordance with the following provisions
of this Section 10(g). The Investor agrees that if WWC shall so exercise the
Demand Event Drag Along Right, the Investor will so Transfer all the shares of
Common Stock owned by the Investor.

                  (ii) Upon delivery of the Investor's notice of exercise of the
Demand Event Tag Along Right (or WWC's notice of exercise of the Demand Event
Drag Along Right, as the case may be), an appraisal of the Private Market Value
shall be completed as soon as practicable pursuant to the Appraisal Procedure.
For purposes hereof, the Investor shall be treated as if there had been issued
to it the number of shares of Class A Stock that would have been issued to the
Investor pursuant to Section 10(f)(i) in a Repurchase at such Private Market
Value per share of all the Investor's shares of Common Stock in which WWC
elected to deliver shares of Class A Stock in lieu of cash (the "Investor Deemed
Class A Shares"). WWC shall cause the acquiror in the Demand Event Transaction
to deliver to the Investor, for each Investor Deemed Class A Share, the same
consideration per Investor Deemed Class A Share (including the exact form and
type of consideration) as is delivered to the shareholders of WWC for each share
of Class A Stock in the Demand Event Transaction (the "Demand Event
Consideration"), all on the same per share terms and conditions (other than any
delay in such delivery required for the determination of the Private Market
Value or for the satisfaction of any regulatory requirements applicable to the
Investor and the delivery of the Demand Event Consideration to it) as are
applicable to the outstanding shares of Class A Stock in the Demand Event
Transaction.

                  (iii) The delivery of the Demand Event Consideration shall be
made upon the closing of the Demand Event Transaction or, if later, as soon as
practicable after the Private Market Value has been determined pursuant to the
Appraisal Procedure and any regulatory requirements applicable to the Investor
and the delivery of the Demand Event Consideration to it have been satisfied.
Such delivery of the Demand Event Consideration shall be made against delivery
of all the Investor's shares of Common Stock to the Company, WWC or the acquiror
in the Demand Event Transaction, as such acquiror may specify.

prospectus and limited due diligence concerning the Company, the reasonable fees
and expenses of any special experts retained by the Company in connection with
such registration, and fees and expenses of other Persons retained by the
Company (but not including any underwriting discounts or commission or transfer
taxes, if any, attributable to the sale of Registrable Securities by the
Investor); and

                  (iv) "Selling Expenses" shall mean all underwriting discounts
and selling commissions applicable to the sale of Registrable Securities and
transfer tax, if any, attributable to the sale of Registrable Securities by the
Investor.

         (b)      Demand Registration.

<PAGE>   31
                  (i) Upon the earlier of (A) the third anniversary of the
Closing Date and (B) the occurrence of a Demand Event (but only if a Demand
Event Tag Along Right or Demand Event Drag Along Right has not been exercised),
the Investor shall have the right, upon delivery of written notice to the
Company (not more than twice in any 12-month period and subject, in each case,
to Section 10(a) hereof) to require the Company to register under the Securities
Act such amount of Registrable Securities owned by the Investor as may be
specified in such notice in accordance with the procedures set forth in this
Section 11(b), provided, that any such registration demanded by the Investor
under this Section 11(b)(i) must be for an amount of Common Stock having an
aggregate anticipated sales price of at least $25,000,000. The rights of the
Investor to demand the registration of its Registrable Securities shall continue
until (x) all the Registrable Securities owned by it shall have been Transferred
to transferees who are not entitled to the registration rights of the Investor
hereunder in accordance with Section 15 hereof or, if earlier, (y) all its
remaining Registrable Securities are already included in an effective resale
registration statement on Form S-3 or other appropriate form for continuous or
delayed offerings or are eligible to be Transferred in Public Sales to U.S.
persons in the United States without registration under the Securities Act and
without being subject to volume limitations under Rule 144 under the Securities
Act, provided, in the case of (y), that there is a public float of the Common
Stock equal to at least 15% of the total outstanding shares of Common Stock.

                  (ii) If, by the fifth anniversary of the Closing Date, the
Company has not completed one or more Public Sales which have resulted in a
public float of the Common Stock equal to at least 15% of the total outstanding
shares of Common Stock, then the Investor shall have the right to require the
Company to register and effect a Public Sale of a sufficient number of shares of
newly issued Common Stock which, together with shares of Common Stock being
resold by WWC or any Other Shareholders (as defined below) and shares of Common
Stock previously sold in Public Sales, will result in a public float of at least
15% of the total outstanding shares of Common Stock, all in accordance with the
procedures set forth in this Section 11(b) for the registration of Registrable
Securities.

                  (iii) If the Investor shall have demanded a registration of
Registrable Securities (which term will include for this purpose newly issued
shares of Common Stock referred to in Section 11(b)(ii) hereof) then the Company
will:

                  (A) promptly give written notice of the proposed registration

         to all other shareholders entitled to piggyback registration rights
         under Section 11(c) hereof or any other contractual agreement of the 
         Company (the "Other Shareholders") and

                  (B) as soon as practicable, use its best efforts to prepare
         and file with the Commission and cause to become effective such
         registration statement as would permit or facilitate the sale and
         distribution of all the Registrable Securities required to be covered
         thereby pursuant to the notice delivered by the Investor, together
         (subject to Section 11(b)(iv) below) with all 


                                       29


<PAGE>   32
         or such portion of the securities of any Other Shareholders joining in 
         such registration as are specified in written requests received by the
         Company within ten Business Days after written notice from the Company 
         is delivered under Section 11(b)(iii)(A) above.

                  (iv) The Investor, at its election, shall have the Registrable
Securities covered by its request distributed by means of an underwritten public
offering with a single or managing underwriter selected by the Company and
reasonably acceptable to the Investor. If any Other Shareholders so request, the
securities of such Other Shareholders shall be included in the registration and
underwriting being effected pursuant to this Section 11(b), subject to this
Section 11(b)(iv). The Investor and the Company shall (together with all Other
Shareholders proposing to distribute their securities through such underwriting)
enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the representative
of the underwriter or underwriters selected for such underwriting by the Company
and reasonably acceptable to the Investor (the "Representative").
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 11(b), if the Representative
advises the Investor and the Company in writing that (x) marketing factors
require a limitation on the number of shares to be underwritten or (y) the
inclusion of shares held by officers and directors of the Company in the
offering could, in the Representative's best judgment, materially reduce the
offering price per share, then, in the case of the preceding clause (x), the
Common Stock held by Other Shareholders shall be excluded from such underwriting
to the extent so required by such limitations and, in the case of the preceding
clause (y), the Common Stock held by officers and directors of the Company shall
be excluded from such underwriting to the extent advised by the Representative.
If, after the exclusion of such shares, further reductions are required to meet
the limitation on the number of shares to be underwritten as advised by the
Representative, then the Investor may elect, in its sole discretion, to reduce
the number of shares that will be included in the underwriting by it by such
number of shares as is necessary to comply with such limitation, but in no event
to an amount which is below the minimum amount for a demand registration as
provided in Section 11(b)(i). If the Investor does not so elect, then the
registration of its shares under Section 11(b)(i) will not proceed and will be
terminated without liability to any other Person. If the Representative has not
limited the number of Registrable Securities or other securities to be
underwritten, the Company may include its securities for its own account in such
registration if the Representative so agrees and if the number of Registrable
Securities which would otherwise have been included in such registration and
underwriting will not thereby be limited.

                  (v) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company shall
furnish to the Investor and the Other Shareholders 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 shareholders for such registration statement to be filed and that it is
therefore essential to defer the filing of such registration statement, then the
Company shall have the right to defer such filing for a period of not more than
90 days after the delivery of such certificate, provided that the Investor shall
not be required to accept such a deferral more than twice in any 12-month
period.

         (c)      Piggyback Registration.

                  (i) If the Company shall determine to register any of its
Common Stock either for its own account or for the account of any holder or
holders of Common Stock (other than a registration on Form S-8 (or similar or
successor form) relating solely to stock option, stock purchase or other
employee benefit plans, or a registration on Form S-4 (or similar or successor
form), or a registration on any registration form which does not permit
secondary sales or does not include substantially the same information as would
be required to be included in a registration statement covering the sale of
Registrable Securities), the Company will:

                  (A) promptly give to the Investor a written notice thereof
         (which shall include a list of the jurisdictions in which the Company
         intends to attempt to qualify such securities under the applicable blue
         sky or other state securities laws); and

                  (B) subject to Section 11(c)(ii) below, include in such
         registration (and any related qualification under blue sky laws or
         other compliance), and in any underwriting involved therein, all the
         Registrable Securities specified in a written request or requests made
         by the Investor within fifteen (15) days after the date written notice
         as described in Section 11(c)(i)(A) above is delivered by the Company.
         Such written request may specify all or a part of the Registrable
         Securities.

                  (ii) If the registration of which the Company gives notice is
for a Public Sale consisting of an underwritten public offering (in which event
the underwriter shall be selected by the Company, in its sole discretion), the
Company shall so advise the Investor as a part of the written notice given
pursuant to Section 11(c)(i)(A). In such event, the right of the Investor to
registration pursuant to this Section 11(c) shall be conditioned upon the
Investor's participation in such underwriting and the inclusion of the
Investor's Registrable Securities in the underwriting to the extent provided
herein. The Investor, if its shares are to be included in such registration,
shall (together with the Company and the Other Shareholders distributing their
Common Stock through such underwriting) enter into an underwriting agreement in
customary form with the Representative. Notwithstanding any other provision of
this Section 11(c), if the Representative advises the Investor or the Company in
writing that (x) the inclusion of shares held by the officers and directors of
the Company in the offering could, in the Representative's best judgment,
materially reduce the offering price per share, or (y) that marketing factors
require a limitation on the number of shares to be underwritten, then, in the
case of the preceding clause (x), the Common Stock held by officers and
directors of the Company shall be excluded from such underwriting to the extent
so advised by the Representative and, in the case of the preceding clause (y),
the number of shares that may be included in the underwriting by the Investor
and Other Shareholders requesting inclusion in such registration (but not the
Company or WWC) shall be reduced, on a pro rata basis (based on the number of
shares requested by the Investor and such Other Shareholders to be included in
such registration), by such minimum 


                                       31


<PAGE>   34
number of shares as is necessary to comply with such limitation. If the Investor
disapproves of the terms of any such underwriting, it may elect to withdraw
therefrom by written notice to the Company and the Representative, given a
reasonable period of time prior to the finalization of the underwriting
arrangements. Any Registrable Securities or other securities excluded or
withdrawn from such underwriting shall not be included in such registration. If
at any time prior to the effective date of the registration statement, the
Company shall determine for any reason not to register such securities, the
Company may, at its election, give written notice of such determination to the
Investor and, thereupon, shall be relieved of its obligation under this Section
11(c) to register any of the Registrable Securities in connection with such
registration.

                  (iii) Number and Duration. The Investor shall be entitled to
have its shares included in an unlimited number of registrations pursuant to
this Section 11(c). The rights of the Investor to registration of its
Registrable Securities under this Section 11(c) shall continue until (x) all the
Registrable Securities owned by it shall have been Transferred to transferees
who are not entitled to the registration rights of the Investor hereunder in
accordance with Section 15 hereof or, if earlier, (y) all its remaining
Registrable Securities are already included in an effective resale registration
statement on Form S-3 or other appropriate form for continuous or delayed
offerings or are eligible to be Transferred in Public Sales to U.S. persons in
the United States without registration under the Securities Act and without
being subject to volume limitations under Rule 144 under the Securities Act,
provided, in the case of (y), that there is a public float of the Common Stock
equal to at least 15% of the total outstanding shares of Common Stock.

         (d) Expenses of Registration. Upon the exercise of registration rights
set forth in this Section 11, the Company shall pay all Registration Expenses
incurred in connection with any registration, qualification or compliance
pursuant to this Section 11, provided, that such expenses shall not include
Selling Expenses, which shall be borne by the Investor pro rata on the basis of
the number of its shares so registered.

         (e) Registration Procedures. In the case of each registration effected
by the Company pursuant to this Section 11, the Company will keep the Investor
advised in writing as to the initiation of each registration and as to the
completion thereof. In connection with any offering of Registrable Securities
registered pursuant to clause (b) or (c) of this Section 11, at its expense, the
Company shall:

                  (i) prepare and file with the Commission, as promptly as
practical after receipt of a request for registration pursuant to this Section
11, a registration statement on any form for which the Company then qualifies,
and which form shall be available for the sale of the Registrable Securities in
accordance with the intended methods of distribution thereof, and use its best
efforts to cause such registration statement to become and remain effective as
provided herein; provided, that before filing with the Commission a registration
statement or prospectus or any amendments or supplements thereto, the Company
will (A) furnish to the Investor copies of all such documents proposed to be
filed for review and comment and (B) notify the 


                                       32


<PAGE>   35
Investor of any stop order issued or threatened by the Commission and take all
reasonable actions required to prevent the entry of such stop order or to remove
it if entered;

                  (ii) prepare and file with the Commission such amendments and
supplements to such registration statement and the prospectus used in connection
therewith as may be necessary to keep such registration effective (A) during the
ten Business Day period immediately following the date on which such
registration statement shall be declared effective, and (B) subject to any
obligation of the Investor to refrain from selling or offering to sell any
Registrable Securities during a Blackout Period (as defined below), for 120 days
after the date of effectiveness or (C) if earlier, until the Investor has
completed the distribution described in the registration statement relating
thereto (but not before the expiration of the time periods referred to in
Section 4(3) of the Securities Act and Rule 174 promulgated thereunder, or any
successor provisions, if applicable). The Company shall be entitled to elect
that a registration statement not be usable, for a reasonable period of time,
but not in excess of one hundred twenty (120) consecutive days (a "Blackout
Period"), if the Company determines in good faith that the use of such
registration statement or the related prospectus would interfere with any
pending financing, acquisition, corporate reorganization or any other material
corporate development involving the Company, WWC or any of their Subsidiaries or
would require premature disclosure thereof, and the Company promptly gives the
Investor written notice of such determination, containing a general statement of
the reasons for such postponement or restriction on use and an approximation of
the anticipated delay; provided, however, that (x) the Company shall not be
entitled to initiate a Blackout Period unless it shall concurrently forbid
purchases or sales in the open market by directors, senior executives and other
Affiliates of the Company, (y) the aggregate number of days included in all
Blackout Periods during any consecutive twelve (12) month period shall not
exceed two hundred forty (240) days, and (z) the period that the Company shall
be required to maintain the effectiveness of the registration statement shall be
increased by the aggregate number of days in the Blackout Periods. The Company
shall give written notice to each shareholder of record included in the
registration statement of the commencement and the termination of any Blackout
Period;

                  (iii) furnish to each underwriter, if any, and the Investor
such number of copies of such registration statement, each amendment and
supplement thereto (in each case including all exhibits thereto), and the
prospectus included in such registration statement (including each preliminary
prospectus) in conformity with the requirements of the Securities Act, and such
other documents incident thereto as the Investor may reasonably request from
time to time in order to facilitate the disposition of the Registrable
Securities owned by the Investor;

                  (iv) use its best efforts to register or qualify such
Registrable Securities under the state securities or "blue sky" laws of such
states as the Investor or the Representative reasonably request and do any and
all other acts and things that may be reasonably necessary or advisable to
enable the Investor and the underwriters to consummate the disposition in such
jurisdictions of the Registrable Securities 


                                       33


<PAGE>   36
owned by the Investor; provided, that the Company will not be required as a
result thereof to (A) qualify generally to do business in any jurisdiction where
it would not otherwise be required to qualify but for this clause (iv), (B)
subject itself to taxation or regulation of its business in any such
jurisdiction in which it would not otherwise be so subject or (C) consent to
general service of process in any jurisdiction in which it would not otherwise
be subject to general service of process;

                  (v) use its best efforts to cause the Registrable Securities
covered by such registration statement to be registered with or approved by such
other governmental agencies or authorities as may be necessary by virtue of the
business and operations of the Company to enable the Investor to consummate the
disposition of such Registrable Securities;

                  (vi) immediately notify the Investor at any time when a
prospectus relating thereto is required to be delivered under the Securities Act
of the happening of any event that comes to the Company's attention, if as a
result of such event the prospectus included in such registration statement
contains an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state any material
fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein
not misleading; and subject to the Blackout Period provisions in clause (ii)
above, the Company will promptly prepare and furnish to the Investor a
supplement or amendment to such prospectus so that, as thereafter delivered to
the purchasers of such Registrable Securities, such prospectus will not contain
an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact
required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not
misleading;

                  (vii) use its best efforts to cause all such Registrable
Securities to be listed on a national securities exchange in the United States
or quoted on the NASDAQ National Market System and listed or quoted on each
securities exchange or automated quotation system on which similar securities
issued by the Company may then be listed or quoted, and enter into such
customary agreements including a listing application and indemnification
agreement in customary form, and, subject to applicable law, to provide a
transfer agent and registrar for such Registrable Securities covered by such
registration statement no later than the effective date of such registration
statement;

                  (viii) enter into such customary agreements (including an
underwriting agreement or qualified independent underwriting agreement, in each
case, in customary form) and take all such other actions as the Investor
requesting registration of the Registrable Securities being covered by such
registration statement or the underwriter reasonably requests in order to
expedite or facilitate the disposition of such Registrable Securities, including
customary representations, warranties, indemnities and agreements;

                  (ix) make available (after reasonable notice and execution of
customary confidentiality agreements satisfactory to the Company) for
inspection, during business hours of the Company, by the Investor or its
representatives (if it has 


                                       34


<PAGE>   37
requested registration of Registrable Securities) and any underwriter
participating in any disposition pursuant to such registration statement (to the
extent provided in the applicable underwriting agreement), (collectively, the
"Inspectors"), all financial and other records, pertinent corporate documents
and properties of the Company and its Subsidiaries (collectively, "Records"), if
any, as shall be reasonably necessary to enable them to exercise their due
diligence responsibility, and cause the Company's officers, directors and
employees, and those of the Company's Affiliates, to supply all information and
respond to all inquiries reasonably requested by any such Inspector in
connection with such registration statement;

                  (x) use its best efforts to obtain a "cold comfort" letter
from the Company's appointed auditors in customary form and covering such
matters of the type customarily covered by "cold comfort" letters as the
Representative reasonably requests; and

                  (xi) otherwise use its best efforts to comply with all
applicable rules and regulations of the Commission and all conditions imposed by
relevant governmental authorities or under applicable law and make available to
the Investor, as soon as reasonably practicable, an earnings statement covering
a period of at least twelve months beginning after the effective date of the
registration statement (as the term "effective date" is defined in Rule 158(c)
under the Securities Act), which earnings statement shall satisfy the provisions
of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act and Rule 158 thereunder.

         It shall be a condition precedent to the obligation of the Company to
take any action with respect to any Registrable Securities that the Investor
shall furnish to the Company such information regarding the Registrable
Securities and any other securities of the Company held by the Investor and the
intended method of disposition of the Registrable Securities held by the
Investor and such other information regarding the Investor as the Company shall
reasonably request and as shall be required in connection with the action taken
by the Company.

         The Investor agrees that, upon receipt of any notice from the Company
of the happening of any event of the kind described in Section 11(e)(vi) hereof,
the Investor will forthwith discontinue disposition of Registrable Securities
pursuant to any prospectus or registration statement until the Investor's
receipt of the copies of the supplemented or amended prospectus contemplated by
Section 11(e)(vi) hereof, and, if so directed by the Company (at the Company's
expense), the Investor will deliver to the Company all copies (including,
without limitation, any and all drafts), other than permanent file copies, then
in the Investor's possession, of the prospectus covering such Registrable
Securities current at the time of receipt of such notice.

         (f)      Indemnification.

                  (i) In the event of any registration of any shares of Common
Stock under the Securities Act pursuant to this Agreement, the Company will
indemnify and hold harmless the Investor, its directors and officers, each
Person who participates as an underwriter in the offering or sale of such
securities and each other Person, if any, who controls the Investor or any such
underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act against any and all losses,
claims, damages and liabilities (or actions in respect thereof), joint or
several, and expenses (including any amounts paid in any settlement effected
with the Company's consent, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld) to
which the Investor, any such director or officer or any such underwriter or
controlling Person may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange
Act, United States state securities or "blue sky" laws, common law or otherwise,
insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or
proceedings in respect thereof) or expenses arise out of or are based upon (A)
any untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) of any material fact
contained in any registration statement under which such securities were
registered under the Securities Act, any preliminary, final or summary
prospectus contained therein, or any amendment or supplement thereto, (B) 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
(C) any violation (or alleged violation) by the Company of any United States
federal, state or common law rule or regulation applicable to the Company and
relating to action required of or inaction by the Company in connection with any
such registration, qualification or compliance. The Company will reimburse the
Investor and each such director, officer, underwriter and controlling Person for
any legal and any other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with
investigating or defending such claim, loss, damage, liability or action, as
such expenses are incurred; provided, however, that the Company shall not be
liable in any such case to the extent that any such claim, loss, damage,
liability (or action or proceeding in respect thereof) or expense arises out of
or is based on any untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) or omission
(or alleged omission) made in such registration statement or amendment or
supplement thereto or in any such preliminary, final or summary prospectus in
reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the
Company by the Investor or any such director, officer, underwriter or
controlling Person specifically stating that it is for use therein; provided
further, however, that the Company shall not be liable to any of the foregoing
indemnitees pursuant to this Section 11(f) with respect to any untrue statement
or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission made in any preliminary
prospectus or the final prospectus or the final prospectus as amended or
supplemented, as the case may be, to the extent that any such loss, claim,
damage or liability of such indemnitee results from the fact that the Investor
or underwriter sold Registrable Securities (x) to a Person to whom there was not
sent or given, at or prior to the written confirmation of such sale, a copy of
the final prospectus or of the final prospectus as then amended or supplemented,
whichever is most recent, if the Company has previously furnished copies thereof
to the Investor or underwriter and such final prospectus, as then amended or
supplemented, had corrected any such misstatement or omission or (y) during a
Blackout Period or after receipt of a notice 


                                       36



<PAGE>   39
pursuant to Section 11(e)(vi) hereof (prior to the amendment or supplement
thereunder having been furnished).

         The indemnity provided for herein shall remain in full force and effect
regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Investor or any such
director, officer, underwriter or controlling Person and shall survive the
transfer of such securities by the Investor or such underwriter.

                  (ii) The Investor will, if Registrable Securities held by it
are included in any registration statement filed in accordance with the
provisions hereof, (x) indemnify the Company, its directors, officers and
controlling Persons, all other prospective sellers, each person who participates
as an underwriter, and their respective directors, officers and controlling
Persons against all claims, losses, damages and liabilities (or actions in
respect thereof) and expenses to which any such Person may become subject under
the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, United States state securities or "blue
sky" laws, common law or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or
liabilities (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof) or expenses arise out
of or are based upon (A) any untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) of a
material fact with respect to the Investor contained in any such registration
statement, preliminary, final or summary prospectus contained therein, or any
amendment or supplement thereto, in reliance on and in conformity with written
information furnished to the Company by the Investor specifically for use
therein, or (B) any omission (or alleged omission) to state therein a material
fact with respect to the Investor required to be stated therein or necessary to
make the statements made by the Investor therein not misleading and (y)
reimburse the Company and its directors, officers, controlling Persons and all
other prospective sellers, each person who participates as an underwriter, and
their respective directors, officers, and controlling Persons for any legal or
any other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with investigating or
defending any such claim, loss, damage, liability or action, in the case of both
clause (x) and clause (y), to the extent, and only to the extent, that such
untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) or omission (or alleged omission)
is made in such registration statement, preliminary, final or summary prospectus
contained therein, or any amendment or supplement thereto in reliance upon and
in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by the Investor
with respect to the Investor specifically for use therein; provided, however,
that the obligations of the Investor hereunder shall be limited to an amount
equal to the proceeds to be received by the Investor from securities sold by the
Investor pursuant to such registration statement or prospectus.

         The indemnity provided for herein shall remain in full force and effect
regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Company or the
Investor, the underwriters or any of their respective directors, officers, or
controlling Persons and shall survive the transfer of such securities by the
Investor and such underwriters.

                  (iii) Each party entitled to indemnification under this
Section 11(f) (an "Indemnified Party") shall give notice to the party required
to provide indemnification (the "Indemnifying Party") promptly after such
Indemnified Party has actual 


                                       37


<PAGE>   40
knowledge of any claim as to which indemnity may be sought, and shall permit the
Indemnifying Party to assume the defense of any such claim or any litigation
resulting therefrom (it being understood that the Indemnifying Party shall not
be responsible for more than one counsel for all Indemnified Parties in any
single action or claim (or group of related actions or claims), unless the
Investor shall have reasonably concluded that it may have a conflict of interest
with one or more other Indemnified Parties with respect to any actions or
claims). Counsel for the Indemnifying Party, who shall conduct the defense of
such claim or any litigation resulting therefrom, shall be approved by the
Indemnified Party (whose approval shall not unreasonably be withheld or
delayed). The Indemnified Party may participate in such defense at the
Indemnified Party's expense (unless the Indemnified Party shall have reasonably
concluded that there may be a conflict of interest between the Indemnifying
Party and the Indemnified Party in such action, in which case the reasonable
fees and expenses of the Indemnified Party's counsel shall be at the expense of
the Indemnifying Party and shall be reimbursed as they are incurred). The
failure of any Indemnified Party to give notice as provided herein shall not
relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations under this Section 11 except
to the extent the Indemnifying Party is actually materially prejudiced thereby.
No Indemnifying Party, in the defense of any such claim or litigation, shall,
except with the consent of each Indemnified Party, consent to entry of any
judgment or enter into any settlement which does not include as a term thereof
the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such Indemnified Party of an
unconditional release from all liability with respect to such claim or
litigation. Each Indemnified Party shall promptly furnish such information
regarding itself or the claim in question as an Indemnifying Party may
reasonably request in writing and as shall be reasonably required in connection
with the defense of such claim and litigation resulting therefrom.

                  (iv) In order to provide for just and equitable contribution
in circumstances in which the foregoing indemnities provided for in this Section
11(f) are for any reason held to be unenforceable although applicable in
accordance with their terms, the Company and the Investor shall contribute to
the aggregate losses, liabilities, claims, damages and expenses of the nature
contemplated by such indemnities in such proportion as shall be appropriate to
reflect (A) the relative benefits received by the Company, on the one hand, and
the Investor, on the other hand, from the offering of the Registrable Securities
and any other securities included in such offering, and (B) the relative fault
of the Company, on the one hand, and the Investor, on the other hand, with
respect to the statements or omissions that resulted in such loss, liability,
claim, damage or expense, or action in respect thereof, as well as any other
relevant equitable considerations; provided, however, that no Person guilty of
fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the
Securities Act) shall be entitled to a contribution from any Person who was not
guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The relative fault shall be
determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged
untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a
material fact relates to information supplied by the Company or the Investor,
the intent of the parties and their relative knowledge, access to information
and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The Company
and the Investor agree that it would not be just and equitable


                                       38


<PAGE>   41
if a contribution pursuant to this Section 11(f) were to be determined by pro
rata allocation or by any other method of allocation that does not take into
account the equitable considerations referred to herein. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained herein, the Company and the Investor agree
that any contribution required to be made by the Investor pursuant to this
Section 11(f) shall not exceed the net proceeds from the offering of Registrable
Securities (before deducting expenses) received by the Investor with respect to
such offering. For purposes of this Section 11(f), each Person, if any, who
controls the Investor within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act
shall have the same rights to contribution as the Investor, and each director of
the Company, each officer of the Company who signed the registration statement,
and each Person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of Section
15 of the Securities Act shall have the same rights to contribution as the
Company.

                  (v) The foregoing indemnities of the Company and the Investor
are subject to the condition that, insofar as they relate to any untrue
statement (or alleged untrue statement) of a material fact contained in a
preliminary prospectus, or any omission (or alleged omission) to state therein a
material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements
contained therein not misleading, which was eliminated or remedied in the
amended prospectus on file with the Commission at the time the registration
statement in question became effective or the amended prospectus filed with the
Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act (the "Final
Prospectus"), such indemnities shall not inure to the benefit of any underwriter
if a copy of the Final Prospectus was furnished to the underwriter 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.

         (g) Information by the Investor. The Investor shall furnish to the
Company such information regarding the Investor and the distribution proposed by
the Investor as the Company may reasonably request in writing in connection with
any registration of Registrable Securities of the Investor and as shall be
reasonably required in connection with any registration, qualification or
compliance referred to in this Section 11.

         (h) Rule 144 Reporting. With a view to making available the benefits of
certain rules and regulations of the Commission which may permit the sale of the
restricted securities to the public without registration, the Company agrees to:

                  (A) make and keep public information available as those terms
         are understood and defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act, at all
         times from and after the effective date of the first registration
         statement under the Securities Act filed by the Company for an offering
         of its securities to the general public;

                  (B) use its best efforts to file with the Commission in a
         timely manner all reports and other documents required of the Company
         under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act at any time after it has
         become subject to such reporting requirements; and


                                       39


<PAGE>   42
                  (C) so long as the Investor owns any Registrable Securities,
         furnish to the Investor upon request a written statement by the Company
         as to its compliance with the current information requirements of Rule
         144 under the Securities Act (at any time from and after the effective
         date of the first registration statement filed by the Company for an
         offering of its securities to the general public), a copy of the most
         recent annual or quarterly report of the Company, and such other
         reports and documents filed with the Commission pursuant to the
         reporting requirements of the Exchange Act as the Investor may
         reasonably request in availing itself of any rule or regulation of the
         Commission allowing the Investor to sell any such securities without
         registration.

         (i) "Market Stand-off" Agreement. (i) If any registration of Common
Stock (or other securities) of the Company shall be in connection with an
underwritten public offering, the Investor agrees not to effect any sale or
distribution of any Registrable Securities, including any private placement or
any sale pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act (or any successor
provision) or otherwise or any sale pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities
Act (or any successor provision), other than by pro-rata distribution to its
shareholders, partners or other beneficial holders, and not to effect any such
sale or distribution of any other equity security of the Company or of any
security convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for any equity security
of the Company (in each case, other than as part of such underwritten public
offering) during the anticipated ten calendar days prior to, and during the 180
calendar day period (or such other period as may be agreed upon between the
Investor and the Representative) that begins on the effective date of such
registration statement, without the consent of the Representative; provided,
however, that written notice of such registration has been delivered to the
Investor at least two Business Days prior to the anticipated beginning of the
ten calendar day period referred to above.

                  (ii) If requested by the Representative the Investor shall
execute a separate agreement to the foregoing effect. The Company may impose
stop-transfer instructions with respect to the shares (or securities) subject to
the foregoing restriction until the end of said 180-day or other period. The
provisions of this Section 11(i) shall be binding upon any transferee who
acquires Registrable Securities, including, without limitation, any Permitted
Affiliate Transferee of the Investor, the Investor's shareholders, partners or
other beneficial holders, if such transferee is entitled to the registration
rights provided hereunder. The Company agrees that any agreement entered into
after the date hereof pursuant to which the Company issues or agrees to issue
any privately placed equity securities shall contain a provision under which the
holders of such securities agree not to effect any sale or distribution of any
such securities during the period and in the manner referred to in this Section
11(i)(ii).

                  (iii) If any registration of Registrable Securities shall be
in connection with an underwritten public offering, the Company agrees (A) not
to effect any Public Sale of any of its equity securities or of any security
convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for any equity security of the
Company (other than any 


                                       40


<PAGE>   43
such sale or distribution of such securities as part of such public offering, in
connection with any amalgamation, merger or consolidation by the Company or any
Subsidiary of the Company, the acquisition by the Company or a Subsidiary of the
Company of the shares or any assets of any other Person, or in connection with a
stock option, stock purchase or other employee benefit plan) during the ten days
prior to, and during the 180-day period (or such other period as may be agreed
upon between the Company and the Representative) which begins on the effective
date of such registration statement without the consent of the Representative.

         (j) WWC agrees that it will cooperate in all reasonable respects in any
due diligence investigation contemplated under Section 11(e)(ix) hereof that is
required in connection with a registration and public offering pursuant to this
Section 11 and provide reasonable access to books, records and personnel of WWC
which are material to a customary due diligence investigation of the Company and
its business, assets and operations in connection with a registered public
offering.


12.      CERTAIN COVENANTS OF THE COMPANY AND WWC.

         (a) Auditors. The Company shall maintain a system of accounting
established and administered in accordance with United States generally accepted
accounting principles ("U.S. GAAP") and shall set aside on its books all such
proper reserves as shall be required by U.S. GAAP. The Company shall retain a
firm of independent certified public accountants of recognized standing (which
may be the auditors of WWC) to audit and report on the Company's annual
consolidated balance sheets and statements of operations, shareholders' equity
and cash flows and to report to the Board. All major accounting policies and
principles shall be determined by the Board in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

         (b)      Financial and Other Information.

                  (i) The Company shall prepare annual consolidated balance
sheets and statements of operations, shareholders' equity and cash flows of the
Company and its Subsidiaries, which shall be prepared in accordance with U.S.
GAAP, set forth in each case in comparative form the figures for the previous
year, and be audited by the auditors referred to in Section 12(a) hereof. The
Company shall also prepare quarterly unaudited consolidated balance sheets and
statements of operations, shareholders' equity and cash flows of the Company and
its Subsidiaries, certified by the Chief Financial Officer or the Chief
Executive Officer of the Company and prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and
setting forth in each case in comparative form the same figures for the
comparable period of the previous year and, in addition, year-to-date figures.
The Company will furnish to the Investor the following information within the
time specified: (i) as soon as practicable after the end of each fiscal quarter
and, in any event within 50 days thereafter, all of the quarterly financial
information referred 


                                       41


<PAGE>   44
to herein, (ii) as soon as practicable after the end of each fiscal year, and in
any event within 120 days thereafter, all of the annual financial information
referred to herein, and (iii) on a timely basis, such other monthly management
operational and financial reports and information as the Investor may reasonably
request.

                  (ii) As part of the annual audit of WWC, WWC's independent
public accountants shall provide to the Investor a certificate as to the
compliance by WWC and the Company with the allocation of credits, fees, charges
and expenses in accordance with the terms of the Intercompany Agreements.

         (c) Inspection and Audit Rights.

                  (i) From and after the date hereof, the Company will permit
the Investor, or its representatives, to visit and inspect any of the properties
of the Company, to examine all its books of account, records, reports and other
papers which are not contractually required of the Company to be kept
confidential or secret, to discuss its affairs, finances and accounts with its
officers, directors, key employees and independent public accountants or any of
them (and by this provision the Company authorizes such accountants to discuss
with the Investor and its representatives the finances and affairs of the
Company and its Subsidiaries), and WWC will permit the Investor to discuss the
affairs of WWC, if material to the Company, with the Senior Officers all at such
reasonable times and as often as may be reasonably requested.

                  (ii) The Investor shall have the right to carry out an audit
(by its independent auditor) once each year to determine compliance by WWC and
the Company with the allocation of credits, fees, charges and expenses in
accordance with the terms of the Intercompany Agreements. Each such audit shall
be at the Investor's sole cost and expense unless it is determined that the
allocations made with respect to the Company differed from the allocations which
should have been made in accordance with the Intercompany Agreements by more
than 10%, in which event the cost of such audit shall be borne by WWC.

         (d) PCS and Future Spectrum Allocations.

                  (i) WWC shall develop and conduct the United States domestic
PCS business (which shall include for this purpose any expansion spectrum
allocated by the FCC to broadband personal communications services), only
through the Company Group. WWC will transfer, or cause to be transferred, to the
Company Group any licenses (or interests therein) for United States domestic PCS
systems acquired by the WWC Non-Company Group promptly after such assets are
acquired, at WWC's cost therefor. For this purpose, to the extent WWC shall have
issued shares of its Class A Common Stock as all or any portion of the
consideration paid to acquire such assets, the cost of such assets to be paid to
WWC by the Company shall be measured based on the market price of such WWC
securities immediately before the announcement of such acquisition, measured as
provided in Section 7(c)(ii).

                  (ii) The Company and the Investor agree that WWC shall
continue to conduct cellular businesses (which shall mean for this purpose
 


                                       42


<PAGE>   45
wireless telecommunications businesses using frequencies in the range of 
800-900 MHz and include any expansion spectrum allocated by the FCC to cellular
services) through the WWC Non-Company Group. The Company will transfer, or 
cause to be transferred, to the WWC Non-Company Group any licenses (or 
interests therein) for cellular systems acquired by the Company Group promptly 
after such assets are acquired, at the Company's cost therefor.

                  (iii) If additional frequencies are allocated to wireless
telecommunications which are not expansion spectrum for PCS or cellular
services, then the WWC Non-Company Group and the Company Group shall divide as
between them any business and acquisition opportunities for the provision of
services using such additional spectrum in accordance with the geographical
areas in which each then operates or has specific plans to begin operating
within 12 months under licenses then held. Subject to clause (iv) below, in the
case of overlapping geographic areas or areas in which neither WWC nor the
Company has operations, WWC and the Company shall mutually agree as to the
allocation of such opportunities, and if they are unable to agree, such
opportunities shall be shared equally by them pursuant to a joint venture or
arrangement which is mutually agreed (it being understood that the Company and
WWC recognize the rights of the Investor as a result of the events described in
clause (c) of the definition of "Disposition Event").

                  (iv) If either the Company or WWC determines not to pursue any
opportunity with respect to the application for or purchase of existing or newly
allocated spectrum, including either PCS spectrum or cellular spectrum (which
determination, in the case of the Company, shall be made by majority vote of the
Board with, prior to a Terminating Reduction, at least one of the Investor's
designees to the Board voting in the majority) and so confirms to the other
party, then the other party may make such application for or purchase such
existing or new spectrum for its own use free of any rights of the declining
party.

         (e) Rights and Obligations of Other Holders. If the Company shall enter
into any agreement with a holder of equity securities of the Company (other than
WWC or the Investor) (an "Other Holder") which contains terms and conditions
with respect to corporate governance (including rights to designate directors to
the Board), liquidity (including transfer rights and restrictions, rights of
first offer or first refusal, and tag along and drag along rights), preemptive
rights, or other rights and obligations of such Other Holder as a shareholder of
the Company, the Company shall notify the Investor of such terms and conditions
in writing, which notice shall constitute an offer to the Investor to grant it
such terms and conditions in lieu of the terms and conditions of this Agreement.
The Investor shall have the right, by delivery of written notice to the Company
within 30 days after delivery of such notice from the Company, to accept such
terms and conditions in lieu of this Agreement, in which case the Company and
the Investor will enter into an agreement satisfactory to them in form and
substance to implement such complete substitution of terms and conditions.

         (f) Dividends. Subject to compliance with the Company's and its
Subsidiaries' loan agreements, indentures and other financing agreements and 


                                       43


<PAGE>   46
subject to the retention by the Company of adequate working capital and 
reserves for the needs of its and its Subsidiaries businesses (including 
reserves for anticipated capital expenditures provided for in the Company's 
approved annual Operating Plan and Budget and/or capital expenditures budget 
and reserves for acquisitions), the Shareholders agree that the Company shall, 
commencing as soon as practicable and in any event with the year beginning on 
January 1, 2000, pay dividends pari passu to all its shareholders as and in 
such amounts as are legally available for distribution.

         (g) Liability for Indebtedness. After the Closing, unless the Investor
shall otherwise consent in writing, no member of the Company Group shall have
any liability under or in respect of any indebtedness of any member of the WWC
Non-Company Group ("WWC Debt"), and the assets of the Company Group shall not be
subject to any Lien under or in respect of any WWC Debt. After the Closing,
unless WWC shall otherwise consent in writing, no member of the WWC Non-Company
Group shall have any liability under or in respect of any indebtedness of any
member of the Company Group ("Company Debt"), and the assets of the WWC
Non-Company Group shall not be subject to any Lien under or in respect of any
Company Debt.

         (h) Spin-Off Distribution. WWC agrees that it shall not effect any
Spin-Off Distribution unless, after giving effect thereto:

                  (i) there shall be a public float of the Common Stock of at
least 15% of the outstanding Common Stock;

                  (ii) the Common Stock is listed on a national securities
exchange or quoted on the NASDAQ National Market System;

                  (iii) the Roaming Agreement remains in full force and effect;
and

                  (iv) if the Investor then retains the right hereunder to
designate one or more directors to the Board, the Company implements either (A)
measures reasonably satisfactory to the Investor (which may include voting
agreements, or the issuance of a separate class of voting securities to the
Investor), or (B) cumulative voting, in either case effective at or before the
Spin-Off Distribution to assure the Investor of the election to the Board of its
designee(s) in accordance with Section 3 hereof.

         (i) Performance of Intercompany Agreements. WWC and the Company agree
that they will duly and timely perform their respective obligations under the
Intercompany Agreements in accordance with their respective terms (subject to
any amendments, modifications or waivers with respect thereto in accordance with
the terms of the Intercompany Agreements), except in respects which are not
material and which would not, in accordance with the terms thereof, give rise to
the right to claim a breach or default thereunder. The Company agrees with the
Investor that it will use all reasonable and prudent efforts to cause WWC so to
perform the Intercompany Agreements.


                                       44


<PAGE>   47
         (j) IPO. Until the date that is 18 months after the Closing Date, the
Company and WWC will not effect any initial Public Sale of the Company's equity
securities (whether a primary offering of newly issued shares or a secondary
offering of shares owned by WWC) without the prior approval of at least one of
the Investor's designees to the Board; provided, that such approval will not be
required under this Section 12(j) for (1) any Public Sale of non-voting,
non-convertible preferred stock for which approval is obtained as referred to in
clause (a) of the definition of "Disposition Event", (2) any Spin-Off
Distribution by WWC which meets the requirements set forth in Section 12(h)
hereof, (3) subject to the rights of the Investor under Section 10(c) in respect
of clauses (c) and (d) of the definition of "Disposition Event", any merger,
acquisition or consolidation involving a Public Sale of the Company's or the
surviving entity's equity securities, or (4) any transaction giving rise to the
Drag Along Right under Section 7.

13.      MISCELLANEOUS.

         (a) Legends. In addition to any other legends required by applicable
law, the Company's By-laws or any other agreement restricting the Transfer of
the Common Stock, each certificate evidencing the Common Stock acquired by the
Shareholders will bear a legend reflecting the restrictions on the transfer of
such shares contained in this Agreement and in the Purchase Agreement.

         (b) Waiver; Amendments. Except as expressly provided otherwise herein,
neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof may be changed, waived,
discharged or terminated orally, but only by an instrument in writing signed by
the Company and each of the Investor and WWC; provided, that if, at the time of
such proposed change, waiver, discharge or termination, any other Shareholder is
party to this Agreement, no change, waiver, discharge or termination that would
adversely affect the rights or alter the obligations of such other Shareholder
will be effective without the written approval of such Shareholder.

         (c) Recapitalization, Exchanges, Etc. The provisions of this Agreement
shall apply to the full extent set forth herein with respect to shares or other
securities of the Company that may be issued to any Shareholder in respect of,
in exchange for, or in substitution of the Common Stock.

         (d) Specific Performance. Each of the parties hereto acknowledges and
agrees that, in the event of any breach of this Agreement, the non-breaching
parties would be irreparably harmed and could not be made whole by monetary
damages. Accordingly, each of the parties hereto agrees that the other parties,
in addition to any other remedy to which they may be entitled at law or in
equity, shall be entitled to compel specific performance of this Agreement
pursuant to Section 13(k)(x).

         (e) Notices. All notices, requests, demands and other communications
hereunder shall be in writing and, except to the extent otherwise expressly
provided in this Agreement, shall be deemed to have been duly given if delivered

enforcement or performance of this Agreement shall be resolved by binding
arbitration by the Arbitration Institute of the Stockholm Chamber of Commerce in
accordance with its rules, subject to the following provisions:


                                       48


<PAGE>   51
                  (i) There shall be three arbitrators (the "Arbitrators"). Each
party shall appoint one arbitrator within 30 days after giving or receiving
notice of the submission of a Dispute to arbitration. The two arbitrators
appointed by the parties shall appoint the third arbitrator. If a party does not
appoint an arbitrator within such designated period, or if the two appointed
arbitrators fail to appoint a third arbitrator within 30 days after their
appointment, the relevant appointment shall be made by the Arbitration Institute
of the Stockholm Chamber of Commerce.

                  (ii) The expenses of the arbitration shall be borne equally by
WWC, on the one hand, and the Investor, on the other hand, and each party shall
bear its own legal fees and expenses; provided, however, that the Arbitrators
shall have discretion to require that one party pay all or a portion of the
expenses of arbitration or the other party's legal fees and expenses in
connection with any particular arbitration.

                  (iii) The Arbitrators shall determine whether and to what
extent any party shall be entitled to damages or equitable relief. No party
shall be entitled to punitive damages or consequential damages or shall be
required to post a bond in connection with equitable relief.

                  (iv) The Arbitrators shall not have the power to add to nor
modify any of the terms or conditions of this Agreement. The Arbitrators'
decision shall not go beyond what is necessary for the interpretation and
application of the provisions of this Agreement in respect of the issue before
the Arbitrators. The Arbitrators' decision and award or permitted remedy, if
any, shall be based upon the issue as drafted and submitted by the respective
parties and the relevant and competent evidence adduced at the hearing(s).

                  (v) The Arbitrators shall have the authority to award any
remedy or relief provided for in this Agreement, in addition to any other remedy
or relief (including provisional remedies and relief) that a court of competent
jurisdiction could order or grant (but subject to the remedial limitations
elsewhere set forth in this Agreement, including, but without limitation, the
aforesaid prohibition against punitive and consequential damages). The
Arbitrators written decision shall be rendered within sixty (60) days of the
hearing. The decision reached by the Arbitrators shall be final and binding upon
the parties as to the matter in dispute. To the extent that the relief or remedy
granted by the Arbitrators is relief or remedy on which a court could enter
judgement, a judgement upon the award rendered by the Arbitrators may be entered
in any court having jurisdiction thereof (unless in the case of an award of
damages, the full amount of the award is paid within ten (10) days of its
determination by the Arbitrators). Otherwise, the award shall be binding on the
parties in connection with their continuing performance of this Agreement and in
any subsequent arbitral or judicial proceeding between the parties.

                  (vi) The arbitration shall take place in Stockholm, Sweden,
unless otherwise agreed by the parties, and shall be conducted in the English
language.

<PAGE>   52
                  (vii) The arbitration proceeding and all filing, testimony,
documents and information relating to or presented during the arbitration
proceeding shall be disclosed exclusively for the purpose of facilitating the
arbitration process and for no other purpose.

                  (viii) The parties shall continue performing their respective
obligations under this Agreement notwithstanding the existence of a Dispute
while the Dispute is being resolved unless and until such obligations are
terminated, expire or are suspended in accordance with the provisions hereof.

                  (ix) The Arbitrators may, in their sole discretion, order a
pre-hearing exchange of information including production of documents, exchange
of summaries of testimony or exchange of statements of position, and shall
schedule promptly all discovery and other procedural steps and otherwise assume
case management initiative and control to effect an efficient and expeditious
resolution of the Dispute. At any oral hearing of evidence in connection with an
arbitration proceeding, each party and its counsel shall have the right to
examine its witnesses and to cross-examine the witnesses of the other party. No
testimony of any witness shall be presented in written form unless the opposing
party or parties shall have the opportunity to cross-examine such witness,
except as the parties otherwise agree in writing.

                  (x) Notwithstanding the dispute resolution procedures
contained in this Section 13(k), either party may apply to any court having
jurisdiction (a) to enforce this Agreement to arbitrate, (b) to seek provisional
injunctive relief so as to maintain the status quo until the arbitration award
is rendered or the Dispute is otherwise resolved, or (c) to challenge or vacate
any final judgment, award or decision of the Arbitrators that does not comport
with the express provisions of this Section 13(k).

         (l) Failure to Pursue Remedies. The failure of any party to seek
redress for violation of, or to insist upon the strict performance of, any
provision of this Agreement shall not prevent a subsequent act, which would have
originally constituted a violation, from having the effect of an original
violation.

         (m) Cumulative Remedies. The rights and remedies provided by this
Agreement are cumulative and the use of any one right or remedy by any party
shall not preclude or waive its right to use any or all other remedies except as
otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement. Such rights and remedies are
given in addition to any other rights the parties may have by law, statute,
ordinance or otherwise.

         (n) Severability. The invalidity or unenforceability of any particular
provision of this Agreement shall not affect the other provisions hereof, and
this Agreement shall be construed in all respects as if such invalid or
unenforceable provision were omitted.

                  (i) Investor 50% Transfer. If the Investor shall have made an
Investor 50% Transfer, and unless the Investor shall have agreed otherwise with
the Investor 50% Transferee, both the Investor and the Investor 50% Transferee
(including, for this purpose, such transferee's Permitted Affiliate Transferees)
shall remain entitled, as to the shares of Common Stock owned respectively by
each of them, to the rights which survive such Transfer as provided in Section
14(b)(ii) (the "Assignable Investor Rights") (and all other rights under this
Agreement of the Investor and any Investor 50% Transferee shall terminate). The
benefits of the Assignable Investor Rights shall be subject to any termination
or diminution thereof in accordance with their terms after giving effect to such
Transfer. Both the Investor and such transferee shall be deemed to be the
"Investor" and a "Shareholder" for purposes of the provisions of this Agreement
governing the rights so shared by them and shall remain subject to all the
rights of WWC hereunder. The Investor shall be permitted to Transfer the benefit
of the Assignable Investor Rights to an Investor 50% Transferee on one occasion
only.

                  (ii) Other Transfers. If the Investor shall make a Transfer of
shares of Common Stock representing less than a 50% Investor Block to a Person
or Persons other than its Permitted Affiliate Transferees, or if the Investor
shall have made an 


                                       53


<PAGE>   56
Investor 50% Transfer, but shall have agreed with the Investor 50% Transferee
not to share the Assignable Investor Rights, then (A) the Investor shall remain
entitled to all its rights, and subject to all its obligations, hereunder,
subject to any termination or diminution thereof in accordance with their
respective terms after giving effect to such Transfer, (B) no such transferee
shall receive any of the rights of the Investor hereunder or be deemed to become
the "Investor" or a "Shareholder" hereunder for purposes of any entitlement to
the rights of the Investor hereunder and (C) each such transferee shall be
required to become subject to (and the Investor shall remain subject to) the
obligations of the "Investor" and a "Shareholder" with respect to, (1) the
obligation to vote in favor of the designees of WWC to the Board under Section
3, (2) the approval rights of WWC under Section 5 as to transferees of such
transferees, (3) the first offer and first refusal rights of WWC under Section

the transferee, the Drag Along Right provisions of Section 14(b)(ii)(B) shall be
applicable), (5) the preemptive rights of WWC under Section 9, and (6) the
Demand Event Drag Along Right under Section 10(g)(the "Mandatory WWC Rights").

                  (iii) Excepted Transfers. If the Investor shall make a
Transfer of Common Stock in an Excepted Transfer, no transferee in such Transfer
shall become entitled to the rights or subject to the obligations of the
Investor hereunder unless mutually agreed by the Investor and WWC.

                  (iv) Permitted Affiliate Transferees. If the Investor shall
make a Transfer of Common Stock to a Permitted Affiliate Transferee, such
Permitted Affiliate Transferee shall become entitled to all the rights of the
Investor hereunder (without any diminution of the Percentage Ownership deemed
held by the Investor hereunder), and subject to all the obligations of the
Investor hereunder, provided, that the Investor and its Permitted Affiliate
Transferees shall be treated, unless the context requires otherwise, as a single
collective party under this Agreement, and no Transfer to a Permitted Affiliate
Transferee shall relieve the Investor of any liability for its obligations
hereunder.

         (b) WWC.

                  (i) WWC 50% Transfer. If WWC shall have made a WWC 50%
Transfer, and unless WWC shall have agreed with the WWC 50% Transferee not to
Transfer to such transferee the benefit of the rights of WWC hereunder (but
rather to retain all or a portion of such rights), the WWC 50% Transferee and
WWC shall be permitted to share only (A) the right to require the Investor to
vote in favor of WWC's designees to the Board under Section 3, which right of
WWC shall survive until the Investor's right to designate directors is
terminated in accordance with Section 3, and (B) WWC's preemptive rights under
Section 9, which shall survive until no other Shareholder has preemptive rights
under Section 9. In each case, the rights of WWC and such transferee shall be
subject to any termination or diminution thereof after giving effect to such
Transfer, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. All other rights may
be either retained by WWC or transferred by WWC to a WWC 50% Transferee, with
WWC or such transferee, as the case may be; being the sole party 


                                       54


<PAGE>   57

requires otherwise, such transferee shall be deemed to be "WWC" and a
"Shareholder" for purposes of the provisions of this Agreement governing the
rights held exclusively by it, and both WWC and such transferee shall be deemed
to be "WWC" and a "Shareholder" for purposes of the provisions hereof governing
rights shared by them.

                  (ii) If WWC shall make a Transfer of shares of Common Stock
representing less than a 50% WWC Block to a Person or Persons other than its
Permitted Affiliate Transferees, or if WWC shall have made a Transfer of a 50%
Investor Block to a 50% WWC Transferee, but shall have elected not to Transfer
its rights to such transferee, then (A) WWC shall remain entitled to all its
rights, and subject to all its obligations, hereunder, subject to any
termination or diminution thereof in accordance with their respective terms
after giving effect to such Transfer, and (B) such transferee shall not be
entitled to any of the rights, or subject to any of the obligations of WWC
hereunder. other than the obligation to vote for the Investor's designees to the
Board under Section 3.

                  (iii) Excepted Transfers. If WWC shall make an Excepted
Transfer, no transferee in such Transfer shall become entitled to the rights, or
subject to the obligations, of the Investor hereunder unless mutually agreed by
the Investor and WWC.

                  (iv) Permitted Affiliate Transferees. If WWC shall make a
Transfer of Common Stock to a Permitted Affiliate Transferee, such Permitted
Affiliate Transferee shall become entitled to all the rights of WWC hereunder
(without diminution of the Percentage Ownership deemed held by WWC hereunder),
and subject to all the obligations of WWC hereunder, provided, that WWC and its
Permitted Affiliate Transferees shall be treated, unless the context requires
otherwise, as a single collective party under this Agreement, and no Transfer to
a Permitted Affiliate Transferee shall relieve WWC of liability for its
obligations hereunder.

         (c)      Further Assurances.

                  (i) The Investor agrees that each transferee of the Investor
(including any Permitted Affiliate Transferee), other than in an Excepted
Transfer, shall be required to enter into such further instruments in form and
substance satisfactory to WWC and the Company as shall reasonably be required or
advisable to effectuate or evidence any transfer or assumption of the rights and
obligations of the Investor to or by such transferee in accordance with this
Section 15 or Section 14.

                  (ii) WWC agrees that each transferee of WWC (including any
Permitted Affiliate Transferee), other than in an Excepted Transfer, shall be
required to enter into such further instruments in form and substance
satisfactory to the Investor and the Company as shall reasonably be required or
advisable to effectuate or evidence the transfer or assumption of the rights and
obligations of WWC to or by such transferee in accordance with this Section 15
or Section 14; provided, that upon a Transfer to any Person in a transaction
which gave rise to a right of first offer or right 


                                       55


<PAGE>   58
of first refusal in favor of the Investor and in which the Investor did not
exercise any such rights, the transferee shall not be subject to any obligations
or rights hereunder except to the extent agreed to between the transferee and
WWC.
