          2.4. Drag Along/Tag Along Rights. Compass shall be permitted to sell, assign,
convey, transfer, encumber or in any other manner dispose of any or all of the Shares held or owned
by it, subject, however, (i) that Shares transferred to any person shall remain subject to the
provisions of this Agreement and such transferee shall become a Stockholder for purposes of this
Agreement and (ii) in the case of sales or other transfers for value, to the following
restrictions:

               (a) Disposition Notice. If Compass proposes at any time to sell or otherwise
transfer for value, whether in a single transaction or in a series of transactions, including any
redemption or repurchase of Shares by the Company, but excluding Exempt Transfers, more than 5% of
the then outstanding Shares of the Company (the “Proposed Sale”) to any person, Compass shall send
written notice (“Disposition Notice”) to the other Stockholders specifying the identity and address
of such person, the number of Shares to be sold, the proposed per Share sale price, the form of
consideration to be paid, any other material terms and conditions of the Proposed Sale, and, for
bona fide sales subject to Section 2.4(b), below, whether Compass is
thereby exercising its Section 2.4(b) Drag Along Rights. The Disposition Notice shall be
deemed effective with respect to each such Stockholder upon receipt.

               (b) Drag Along Rights. In the event that the Proposed Sale is a bona fide sale or
other bona fide transfer for value to a non-affiliated third party (“Third Party Purchaser”),
Compass shall have the right to require each of the other Stockholders to sell, and each of the
Stockholders hereby agrees to sell, an equal percentage of his Shares (the “Drag Along Right”) to
such Third Party Purchaser on the same terms and conditions, and at the same time as, the Proposed
Sale. If Compass has by way of the Disposition Notice exercised its Drag Along Rights, then,
promptly upon receipt of such Disposition Notice, each Stockholder (each a “Drag Along
Stockholder”) shall deliver to Compass (or such other person as may be agreed upon between Compass
and each such Drag Along Stockholder) to be held by Compass (or such other agreed upon person) in
escrow for sale or return upon the terms of this
Section 2.4, the certificate or
certificates representing the Shares to be sold pursuant to this Section 2.4(b), duly
endorsed or accompanied by executed stock powers, together with a limited power-of-attorney
authorizing Compass to sell such Shares in accordance with the terms of this Section
2.4(b), To the fullest extent of the law, the Stockholders and any Additional Holders
expressly waive any appraisal rights conferred under the Delaware General Corporation Law.

               (c) Tag Along Rights. Upon receipt of any Disposition Notice from Compass, each of
the other Stockholders shall have, as a condition to closing the Proposed Sale, the right to
require (the “Tag Along Right”) that the same percentage of his Shares be sold as part of, and upon
the same terms and conditions as, the Proposed Sale. The rights referred to in this Section
2.4(c) shall be exercised by written notice to Compass (the “Tag Along Notice”). The Tag
Along Notice shall only be deemed effective if received by Compass from the electing Stockholder
(each a “Tag Along Stockholder”) within the period ending 30 days after the Disposition Notice was
received by such Tag Along Stockholder. Promptly upon giving the Tag Along Notice, each Tag Along
Stockholder shall deliver to Compass (or such other person as may be agreed upon between Compass
and such Tag Along Stockholder) to be held by Compass

(or such other person) in escrow for sale or return upon the terms of this Section
2.4(c), the certificate or certificates representing his Shares to be sold as part of the
Proposed Sale, duly endorsed or accompanied by executed stock powers, together with a limited
power-of-attorney authorizing Compass to sell such Shares in accordance with the terms of this
Section 2.4.

               (d) Promptly upon the consummation of any Proposed Sale, and, in
any event not later than 5 business days after such consummation, Compass shall deliver to each
Drag Along Stockholder or Tag Along Stockholder, as the case may be, the total sale price of his
Shares sold as part of the Proposed Sale (after deduction of his proportionate share, based on
number of Shares sold, of the reasonable out-of-pocket expenses associated with such Proposed
Sale), together with evidence of the expenses associated with, and the completion and time of
completion of, such Proposed Sale.

               (e) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Compass shall have 120 days from the
date of receipt of any Disposition Notice during which to consummate the Proposed Sale to which
such Disposition Notice relates. If, at the end of such 120 day period, Compass has not consummated
the Proposed Sale, all certificates representing Shares delivered by either a Drag Along
Stockholder or Tag Along Stockholder, as the case may be, to Compass for sale or other disposition
as part of such Proposed Sale shall be returned to such Drag Along Stockholder or Tag Along
Stockholder, as the case may be, and the transaction contemplated by the Proposed Sale shall be
deemed to be a new Proposed Sale and shall again be subject to the provisions of this Section
2.4.

          2.5.
Expiration of Restrictions. All restrictions imposed pursuant
to this Section 2 shall terminate:

          (a) at any time upon the written agreement of the Company and all the Stockholders then
signatory to this Agreement as it may be amended or revised from time to time;

          (b) immediately upon the dissolution of the Company or the bankruptcy or insolvency of the
Company;

          (c) immediately at such time as a registration statement filed for the public sale of shares
of the Company for cash is declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission except that
the Stockholders shall be required to enter into customary lock-up agreements in such form as is
generally required from company insiders by the lead underwriter in such offering; or

          (d) upon the acquisition by merger of the Company by an existing publicly traded company.

     Section 3.

2.5,

except for Excluded Issuances (as defined in Section 3.3 below), if the Company
proposes to sell to any person or entity any Shares or any security exercisable, convertible or
exchangeable for Shares (“Offered Securities”), the
Company shall also offer (a “Preemptive Offer”)
the Management Stockholders, Additional Holders and Compass the right to purchase, at the same
price and upon the same terms as the Offered Securities are proposed to be sold, up to such number
of the Offered Securities as would enable the Management Stockholders, Additional Holders and
Compass to own immediately after such purchase the same percentage of the issued and outstanding
Common Stock as owned (calculated on an “as converted” basis in the case of common stock
equivalents or securities exercisable, convertible or exchangeable into or for Common Stock) by the Management Stockholders, Additional Holders and
Compass, respectively, immediately prior to the date on which the Offered Securities are proposed
to be issued.

          3.2.
Notice of Acceptance. Notice of his or its intention to accept, in whole or in
part, a Preemptive Offer shall be evidenced by a writing signed by the Management Stockholders.
Additional Holders and/or Compass, as the case may be, and delivered to the Company prior to the
end of the 20 business-day period commencing on the date of such Preemptive Offer, setting forth
such portion of the Offered Securities as the Management Stockholders, Additional Holders and/or
Compass elect to purchase.

security exercisable, convertible or exchangeable for Shares that may be issued or sold (i)

part of an arms’-length transaction in which the Company is acquiring control of an unaffiliated
third-party from a person to whom such Shares are issued, (iii) pursuant to a public offering of
the Company’s securities, or (iv) to institutional lenders lending money to the Company (but no
more than a cumulative aggregate of ten percent (10%) of the Company’s total outstanding share
capital).

     Section 4.
Legend on Certificates. Each certificate representing Shares shall (unless
otherwise permitted by the provisions of this Agreement or that certain Registration Rights
Agreement, dated of even date herewith, by and between the Company and the Management Stockholders
(the “Registration Rights Agreement”)) be stamped or otherwise imprinted with a legend (in

REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED UNDER APPLICABLE FEDERAL AND
STATE SECURITIES LAWS.

THIS CERTIFICATE AND THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE AND ALL RIGHTS THEREIN ARE
SUBJECT TO AND TRANSFERABLE (INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION BY WAY OF PLEDGE OR OTHER GRANT OF A
SECURITY INTEREST THEREIN) ONLY IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE PROVISIONS OF THAT CERTAIN STOCKHOLDERS’
AGREEMENT, DATED AS OF SEPTEMBER 2, 2004 AMONG THE COMPANY’S STOCKHOLDERS. A COPY OF SUCH
STOCKHOLDERS’ AGREEMENT, AS MAY BE AMENDED FROM TIME TO TIME, IS ON FILE AND AVAILABLE FOR
INSPECTION AT THE PRINCIPAL OFFICE OF THE COMPANY. ANY SALE, PLEDGE, GIFT, BEQUEST, TRANSFER,

THEREBY IN VIOLATION OF SAID STOCKHOLDERS’ AGREEMENT SHALL BE INVALID.

     Section 5.
Covenant Not To Compete.

          5.1. Each Management Stockholder and Additional Holder agrees and covenants that, in connection
with the sale, assignment, conveyance, transfer, encumbrance or other disposition of all the Shares
owned by such Management Stockholder or Additional Holder (the
“Disposition”), he, she or it:

               (a) shall not, during the period beginning on the closing date of the Disposition and
ending on the second anniversary of such closing date (the
“Non-Compete Period”), own, manage,
operate, join, control or participate in the ownership, management, operation or control of, or be
connected as a stockholder, member, manager, director, officer, employee, partner, consultant with,
any for profit business, firm, entity or organization, which competes with the Company and its
subsidiaries in the development, manufacture, distribution, application or sale of abrasion
resistant coatings on plastic corrective and non-corrective vision
eyewear (the “Business”) in any
county or city in California or anywhere else in the world (each a “Competing Concern”); provided,
however, the forgoing shall not prohibit such holder from beneficially owning up to five percent
(5%) of the outstanding equity securities of a for profit business, firm, entity or organization
the equity securities of which are traded on a national securities exchange, the Nasdaq Stock
market, or the London Stock Exchange; and provided, further, that the foregoing shall not prohibit
any such holder from acquiring a for profit business, firm, entity or organization where less than
ten percent (10%) of the gross revenue of such for profit, business, firm, entity or organization
is attributable to operations that compete with the Business, so long as the applicable holder (a)
provides written notice to the Company of such acquisition at or prior to the consummation thereof,
and (b) seeks to divest, and continues to use commercially reasonable efforts to divest, the
portion of the acquired for profit business, firm entity or organization that competes with the
Business; provided, further, that the restrictions imposed by this Section 5.1(a) shall not apply
to a Management Stockholder’s or Additional Holder’s employment with a Competing Concern if such
person is employed by the Competing

- 6 -

 

Execution
Copy

Concern at the time of the Disposition and (A) such person has been employed by the
Competing Concern at least six months prior to the Disposition, (B) such person has not been
employed by the Company or its subsidiaries during the nine month period preceding the Disposition,
(C) such person’s employment was terminated by the Company and its subsidiaries or (D) such person
terminated his employment with the Company and its subsidiaries at such time as he was unaware of
the contemplated Disposition; provided, further, that, if the Company shall dispose of a portion of
its business, whether a subsidiary, division or otherwise, to a Competing Concern and a Management
Stockholder or Additional Holder shall accept employment with such Competing Concern in connection
with such disposition, then the restrictions imposed by this Section 5.1(a) shall not apply to such
Management Stockholder’s or Additional Holder’s employment with such Competing Concern. Each
Stockholder expressly acknowledges and agrees that such restriction is reasonable with respect to
subject matter. Each Stockholder expressly acknowledges and agrees that because the Company does
business throughout the world, such restriction is reasonable as to geographic area. Each
Stockholder expressly acknowledges and agrees that because Company is likely to continue to conduct a like business throughout the United States for at least
two (2) years from the closing date of the disposition, such restriction is reasonable as to time.

               (b) shall not, during the Non-Compete Period, directly or indirectly,

                    (i) contact, approach or solicit for the purpose of offering employment to or hiring (whether as an
employee, consultant, agent, independent contractor or otherwise) or actually hire any person
employed by the Company or any of its subsidiaries at any time prior to the closing date of the
disposition or during the Non-Compete Period, without the prior written consent of Compass;

                    (ii) solicit or attempt to induce any customer or other business relation of the Company or any of
its Subsidiaries into any business relationship (including the termination or rescission of the
relationship) which might materially harm the Company or any related, affiliated or subsidiary
organization of Company: or

                    (iii) participate or concur in any remarks or actions that are disparaging or detrimental in any
way to the business or personal reputation of the Company and any related, affiliated or subsidiary
organization of Company, or any directors, officers, employees or representatives thereof.

          5.2. Stockholders hereby acknowledge and agree that the covenants, restrictions
and agreements of Section 5.1 are made in connection with the Disposition of all of a Stockholder’s
ownership interest in the Company and the goodwill of the Company and are fair and reasonable.

          5.3. Whenever possible each provision and term of this Section 5 will be interpreted
in a manner to be effective and valid but if any provision or term of
this Section 5 is held
to be prohibited or invalid, then such provision or term will be ineffective only to the extent of
such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating or affecting in any manner whatsoever the
remainder of such provision or term or the remaining provisions or
terms of this Section 5.
If

- 7 -

 

Execution
Copy

any of the covenants set forth in this Section 5 are held to be unreasonable,
arbitrary or against public policy, such covenants will be considered divisible with respect to
scope, time and geographic area, and in such lesser scope, time and geographic area, will be
effective, binding and enforceable against each Seller.

     Section 6. Mandatory Sale of Shares.

          6.1. Upon any Management Stockholder’s or Additional Holder’s termination of employment from
SDC Technologies, Inc., either voluntarily or for cause (as defined below), Compass shall have the right to purchase all of the shares of Series A Common Stock of such
holder at a purchase price equal to the product of the Original Issue Price of the stock held by
such holder multiplied by the number of such shares (plus, if any such Holder shall have financed
the acquisition of such shares by issuing a promissory note to Compass, any accrued and unpaid
interest thereon). Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, Compass shall not have the right to
purchase (a) shares of Series A Common Stock or 13% Series B Cumulative Redeemable Preferred
Stock such holder received upon the conversion of any Series A Convertible Preferred Stock held
by such holder, (b) shares of Series A Common Stock which are no longer subject to Compass’
purchase right hereunder, (c) shares of Series A Common Stock which are held by an Additional
Holder that is not an employee of SDC Technologies, Inc., and (d) shares of Series A Convertible
Preferred Stock owned by a holder. For purposes of this Agreement, Compass’ right to purchase the
shares of a Management Stockholder or Additional Holder under this Section 6 shall lapse at a rate
of ten percent (10%) for each full year of employment with SDC Technologies, Inc., starting on the
date of this Agreement. For example, after two years of employment with SDC Technologies, Inc.
from the date of this Agreement, only eighty percent (80%) of such Management Stockholder’s or
Additional Holder’s shares of Series A Common Stock will be subject to the purchase rights of
Compass under this Section 6.

          6.2. For purposes of this Section 6, “for cause” means (a) willful or grossly negligent
violation of any law which causes material injury to the business of Company or entry of a plea of
nolo contendere (or similar plea) to a charge of such an offense (b) any willful and material
breach by the Management Stockholder or Additional Holder of this Agreement, which, if curable,
remains uncured for thirty (30) days following written notice thereof from Company to Executive,
(c) the Management Stockholder’s or Additional Holder’s willful violation of his or her fiduciary
duty to Company, including his or her duty of loyalty and the corporate opportunity doctrine, (d)
commission of, or the indictment or conviction for, acts of fraud, dishonesty, misappropriation or
embezzlement, and (e) refusal to comply with the Company’s reasonable orders or directives or
the Company’s reasonable rules, regulation, policies, procedures or practices that are not
inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement, which failure to comply, if curable, continues
uncured for thirty (30) days following written notice thereof from Company to Executive.

     Section 7. Custody of Shares by Silvue.

          To facilitate the enforcement of the rights and obligations agreed to herein by the parties, each
Management Stockholder and Additional Stockholder acknowledges such rights and obligations and
agrees that the Company shall hold each such Management
Stockholder’s

- 8 -

 

Execution
Copy

and Additional Holder’s Shares, for the benefit of such Stockholder, subject to any rights
granted to another party herein. Each Management Stockholder and Additional Holder shall promptly
deliver to the Company all stock certificates evidencing the Shares of such holder, together with a
stock power executed in blank in a form acceptable to the Company and its counsel. So long as the
Company shall hold the Shares on behalf of a Stockholder, the Stockholder shall be entitled to
exercise such holder’s right to vote such Shares and shall be entitled to receive any dividend
(ordinary or extraordinary, whether paid in cash or property) or other distribution with respect to
such Shares.

     Section 8. Miscellaneous.

          8.1. Effectiveness of Transfers. No Shares shall be transferred on the Company’s
books and records, and transfers of Shares shall be otherwise ineffective, unless any such transfer
is made pursuant to and in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

          8.2. Notices. Any and all notices or consents required or permitted to be given under
any of the provisions of this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been

damaged in the event that this Agreement is not specifically enforced. In the event of a breach or
threatened breach of any of the terms, covenants and conditions of this Agreement by any of the
parties hereto, the other parties shall, in addition to all other remedies, be entitled to a
temporary or permanent injunction, without showing any actual damage, and/or a decree for specific
performance in accordance with the provisions hereof.

          8.4. Entire Agreement. Except as contained in that certain Registration Rights

Amendments: Termination. This Agreement may not be modified, amended or,
except as herein provided, terminated by a written agreement signed
by all of the parties hereto.

          8.6. Waiver. Any party may waive compliance by any other with any of the covenants or
conditions herein, but no waiver shall be binding unless executed in writing by the party making

OF

DIABLO MARKETING LLC,

A Limited Liability Company

     This MEMBERS AGREEMENT, dated as of October 24, 2001, of Diablo Marketing LLC (the “Company”),
is by and among Zhentil Keep Holding Co., a Delaware corporation
(“ZKH”), and Crosman Corporation, a        Delaware corporation (“Crosman”).

WITNESSETH:

WHEREAS ZKH has the manufacturing, production and marketing expertise required; and

WHEREAS Crosman has the sales, marketing and distribution expertise required; and

WHEREAS the Members desire to insure continuity of the business and management of the Company and
to provide for the disposition of the proceeds thereof;

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and of the mutual covenants contained herein, the
parties hereto agree as follows:

1. PRIOR AGREEMENTS

Any prior agreements and understandings among the parties hereto with respect to the Company are
hereby terminated and are of no further force and effect, with the exception of the OPERATING
AGREEMENT dated October 24, 2001 (the “Operating Agreement”). Capitalized terms not specifically
defined herein shall have the meaning set forth in the Operating Agreement.

2. TERM OF AGREEMENT

any of the following events:

	 	(a)	 	The mutual consent in writing of all the parties hereto; or
	 
	 	(b)	 	The sale of all the Capital Interests held by all but one of the Members; or
	 
	 	(c)	 	The expiration of 60 days after a petition in bankruptcy shall have been filed

	 	 	 	by or against the Company, by persons other than any of the Members, unless such petition shall
have been discharged during such 60 day period; or
	 
	 	(d)	 	An assignment by the Company for the benefit of creditors;
	 
	 	(e)	 	The expiration of 60 days after the commencement of any proceeding, by persons other than
any of the Members, under any act of Congress or governmental authority for the relief of
debtors seeking the relief or readjustment of indebtedness, either through reorganization,
composition, extension or otherwise, and such proceedings involving the Company as debtor shall not
have been vacated within such 60 day period; or
	 
	 	(f)	 	The voluntary or involuntary dissolution of the Company; provided, however, that if
voluntary, such dissolution is agreed to by Members holding, in aggregate, at least 80% of all the
Capital Interests in the Company.

In the Event that any Member shall cease to be the owner of Capital Interests of the Company, such
Member shall cease to be a party to this Members Agreement and this Members Agreement shall no
longer be binding upon or inure to the benefit of such Member; provided, however, that nothing
contained in this Section 2 shall affect or impair any rights of obligations of any Member or the
Company arising prior to the time of the termination of this Members Agreement, or which may arise
by an event causing such termination.

3. INITIAL SHARE STRUCTURE

	 	(a)	 	The initial capital contributions of the members (“Initial Contribution”) shall be
effected as of the date hereof (the “Effective Date”).
	 
	 	(b)	 	On the Effective Date, each member’s Initial Contribution shall be one hundred thousand
US dollars (US$100,000.00).
	 
	 	(c)	 	Within 7 days of the Effective Date, each member shall make a further capital
contribution (“Further Contribution”) in the amount of two hundred seventy five thousand US dollars
(US$275,000.00).
	 
	 	(d)	 	The Further Contributions shall be used to purchase the molds (for equipment masks and
packaging bottles, see Schedule A) that the Company will require for operation, at a fixed price of
five hundred fifty thousand US dollars ($550,000.00), from Unitech Consultants Limited, a Hong Kong
company (“Unitech”).
	 
	 	(e)	 	The Members shall examine the business during the first year of operation, and together
determine whether any other capital contribution (“Optional Contribution”) shall be required. If
the Members decide unanimously that an

 

- 3 -

	 	 	 	Optional Contribution is required, then the amount of said contribution shall not exceed one
hundred fifty thousand US dollars (US$150,000.00) per member. Bank financing shall fund any other
working capital requirements.
	 
	 	(f)	 	The initial Capital Interests of the Members shall be as follows:

	 	 	 	 	 
	(1) ZKH

	 	 	50.0	%
	(2) Crosman

	 	 	50.0	%

4. MANAGEMENT AND OFFICERS

	 	(a)	 	The business affairs of the Company shall be managed by those procedures set forth in the
Operating Agreement except as otherwise set forth in this Section 4.
	 
	 	(b)	 	The Member’s agree that their shall be two officers of the Company, having the duties and
titles set forth in this Section 4(b).
	 
	 	 	 	The first such officer shall be the Chief Executive Officer of the Company. The Chief Executive
Officer shall be appointed by Crosman upon the approval of ZKH, which approval shall not be
unreasonably withheld. The Chief Executive Officer shall have all of the duties and authority of
the Manager set forth in the Operating Agreement, including, without limitation, the administration
of the day-to-day operations of the Company, cash management and record keeping, intra-Company
relations, sales, collection of debts owed to the Company, the purchase and procurement of product
and warehousing and shipping.
	 
	 	 	 	The second officer shall be the Director of Marketing and Product Development. The Director of
Marketing and Product Development shall be appointed by ZKH upon the approval of Crosman, which
approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. The Director of Marketing and Product Development
shall have management and administrative responsibilities in the areas of marketing, development of
brand awareness, packaging, and product development. However, the Director of Marketing and Product
Development shall not have the authority to expend Company funds, or to make an offer to sell or
purchase products, without the approval of the Manager or the Chief Executive Officer. Likewise,
neither the Manager, nor the Chief Executive Officer shall have any authority to make decisions
within the management authority of the Director of Marketing and Product Development, without the
approval of such officer.
	 
	 	 	 	Salaries paid to these executives as consideration for the performance of their duties as described
herein shall initially be the responsibility of the Member that appointed them. These Members will
be able to charge a management fee

 

- 4 -

	 	 	to the Company on a future date to be set by a vote of Members holding at least 80% of the
Capital Interests of the Company.

5. OPERATIONS

	(a)	 	 	Members shall provide product (which they manufacture themselves) to the Company at a
profit, provided that the Company maintains a margin consistent with distributor margins
in the relevant market (“Required Margin”) on resale of such products, such Required Margin to
be defined by the Members at a later date.
	 
	(b)	 	 	Crosman shall supply CO2 to the Company at a price of US$0.23 per 12g bottle, plus the
actual costs of packaging. ZKH shall supply paintballs to the Company at a price of US$14.00 per
thousand, plus the actual costs of packaging. Subject to Section 5(a), these prices may be adjusted
from time to time as required by the Member suppling such product to the Company. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, ZKH may sell existing inventories of paintballs intended to be
distributed in Sheriden brand specific packaging to the Company at US$14.00 per thousand until all
Sheridan brand specific paintball packaging has been utilized.
	 
	(c)	 	 	Members shall offer to the Company credit terms of 60 days in the first year and 45 days
in the second year for products sold by the Members to the Company. A Member may extend credit to
the Company beyond such 60 day and 45 day terms as needed by the Company, and in such an event will
be paid interest at its actual cost of funds.
	 
	(d)	 	 	Members shall provide full credit to the Company for defective product manufactured by
the Member.
	 
	(e)	 	 	The Company may freely purchase product not produced by any of the Members from
alternative sources directly without being required to do so through a Member.
	 
	(f)	 	 	ZKH shall license to the Company, at no charge, the use of the trade-names and
trademarks required by the Company for use in the retail market, including DUSK, SKUL and DIABLO,
and any other trade-names that the Members determine necessary to further the interests of the
Company.
	 
	(g)	 	 	Crosman shall be paid a commission by the Company equivalent to 2.5% of net sales. In
return for this payment, Crosman shall provide the Company’s sales force at its own expense, and
bear all costs related to such sales force. As the Company develops its own sales force over time,
Crosman shall be paid a commission by the Company equivalent to 2.5% of net sales for any sales not
initiated by salespeople employed by the Company. For purposes of this paragraph, the salesperson
servicing the account when a shipment is made

 

- 5 -

	 	(h)	 	Crosman shall initially provide all warehousing services to the Company. The current
Crosman warehouse facilities shall be used, and Crosman will collect a fee from the Company
equivalent to 1.5% of net sales for the provision of such services. This shall include warehouse
space, personnel, supplies, insurance, utilities, maintenance and any other costs necessary to
warehouse and ship the Company’s product. The Company will lease its own warehouse space when it
becomes necessary, at which point the Company shall pay all costs required to operate a shipping
and warehouse facility, and Crosman will no longer receive the fee noted in this section above. If
the Company relocates over an extended period of time, the above noted fee shall be reduced to an
amount acceptable to Crosman and those Members holding, in the aggregate, 80% of the Capital
Interest.
	 
	 	(i)	 	Crosman shall initially provide all accounting, billing, collection, payroll and IT services
and any related administrative costs, in return for a payment from the Company equivalent to 1.0%
of net sales. As the Company develops its own administrative staff over time, this commission shall
be reduced to an amount acceptable to Crosman and those Members holding, in the aggregate, 80% of
the Capital Interest. At such time as the Company is providing all of the accounting, billing,
collection, payroll and IT services for itself, Crosman will no longer receive the fee noted in
this section above.
	 
	 	(j)	 	The parties hereto agree that the Company will, from time to time, effect distributions to the
Members in amounts sufficient to pay the tax liabilities of the Members at the highest federal,
state and local rates arising out of the income earned by the Company, such distribution to be
effected at a time and from time to time to enable the Members to satisfy such tax liability prior
to the date interest and/or penalties may accrue thereon. In no event shall distributions to
Members be unequal.
	 
	 	(k)	 	The parties hereto agree that, unless otherwise agreed to by the Members holding at least 80%
of all the Capital Interests, and after giving effect to the distributions specified in Section
4(d) hereof, the Company will, from time to time, effect distributions to the Members and Economic
Holders, in amounts equal to at least 50% of the retained earnings of the Company, and that such
distributions shall be made no less frequently than quarterly; provided, however, that no such
distribution shall be effected as long as the Company is indebted to the Members for product
delivered and any portion of such indebtedness is more than 60 days overdue in the year 2001 or
more than 45 days overdue thereafter. There must be sufficient legal funds to effect this
distribution.

6. MODIFICATION AND WAIVER

This Members Agreement cannot be amended, modified, supplemented or changed, and no provision
hereof can be waived, except by a written instrument making specific reference to this Members
Agreement and signed by the parties hereto against whom enforcement of any such amendment,
modification, supplement, change or waiver is sought. The waiver of any right of a party hereto
shall not be deemed a waiver of any other right derived hereunder.

7. COVENANT NOT TO COMPETE

Each Member hereby agrees that:

	 	(a)	 	Each Member shall, and each Member shall cause its Affiliates (as defined below) to, (i) hold

refrain from disclosing, publishing or making use of same without the prior written consent of the
Company; and
	 
	 	(b)	 	Each Member shall, and shall cause each of its Affiliates to, (i) hold in confidence any and
all trade secrets of the Company and (ii) refrain from disclosing, publishing or making use of same
without prior written consent of the Company; and
	 
	 	(c)	 	Except as set forth in Subsection (f) below, during the Noncompete Period (as hereinafter
defined) a Member shall not, and shall not permit any Affiliates to, in any manner, directly or
indirectly:

	 	(i)	 	Engage in, have any equity or profit interest in, make any loan to or for the benefit of, or
render services (of any executive, advertising, marketing, sales, administrative, supervisory or
consulting nature) to any business which engages in providing any goods or services provided by the
Company (collectively the “Company Activities”), and which is conducting such Company Activities
anywhere in the world in retail, distribution and other markets directly related to the
Non-Conventional Paintball Market (such retail, distribution and other markets anywhere in the
world directly related to the Non-Conventional Paintball Market referred to herein as the
‘Territory”);
	 
	 	(ii)	 	Employ, or seek to employ, on his or its own behalf, as the case may be, or on behalf of any
other person, firm or company, any person who was employed during the Noncompete Period by the
Company and who has not thereafter ceased to be employed by the Company for a period of at least
one year; or
	 
	 	(iii)	 	Solicit, or seek to solicit, on his or its, as the case may be, own behalf or on behalf of
any other person, firm, or company, any customer of

 

- 7 -

	 	 	the Company who is or was a customer of the Company from the Effective Date to the end of the
Noncompete Period and whose facilities serviced by the Company are located within the Territory for
the purpose of rendering or performing Company Activities for such customer.

	 	(d)	 	Crosman shall not, and shall not permit any Affiliates to, during the Noncompete Period, in
any manner, directly or indirectly, engage in the manufacture of paintballs. ZKH shall not, and
shall not permit any Affiliates to, during the Noncompete Period, in any manner, directly or
indirectly, engage in the manufacture of CO2 powerlets.
	 
	 	(e)	 	ZKH shall not, and shall not permit any Affiliates to, during the Noncompete Period, in any
manner, directly or indirectly, engage in selling or soliciting sales with respect to any paintball
product within the Territory.
	 
	 	(f)	 	Notwithstanding anything in Sections 4(c), 4(d) and 4(e) to the contrary:

1) Crosman may sell existing inventories of its Sheriden brand paintball products into the
Territory until such inventories have been completely depleted.

2) Except for the Skul and Dusk brands, ZKH may market and sell paintball products under
anyother brand name, including, without limitation, the Diablo brand, anywhere outside of
the Territory, but not at prices lower than offered to the Company.

3) Crosman may engage in any business related to air guns and air gun ammunition, including,
without limitation, pellets, BBs and all other air gun accessories. In addition, Crosman may market
and sell CO2 powerlets packaged for any market other than the paintball market to any
person, business or entity.

The “Noncompete Period” shall be the period commencing on the date hereof and terminating on the
close of business on the third anniversary from the date such Member no longer owns Capital
Interests.

The “Affiliate” of any person or entity means any other person or entity who directly or indirectly

- 8 -

8. SEVERABILITY

If a judicial determination is made that any of the provisions of Section 7 hereof constitutes an
unreasonable or otherwise unenforceable restriction against any Member, the provisions of Section 7
hereof shall be rendered void only to the extent that such judicial determination finds such
provisions to be unreasonable or otherwise unenforceable. In this regard, the parties hereto hereby
agree that any judicial authority construing this Members Agreement shall be empowered to sever any
portion of the Territory, any prohibited business activity or any time period from the coverage of
Section 7 hereof and to apply the provisions of Section 7 hereof to the remaining portion of the
Territory or the remaining business activities not so severed by such judicial authority. In
addition, the parties hereto further agree that such judicial authority shall be empowered to
reduce the scope of any of the provisions of Section 7 hereof to the extent necessary to make any
such provision enforceable. Moreover, notwithstanding the fact that any provision of Section 7
hereof is determined not to be specifically enforceable, the Company shall nevertheless be entitled
to recover monetary damages as a result of the breach of such provisions by such Member or any
Related Party. The time period during which the prohibitions set forth in Section 7 hereof shall
apply shall be tolled and suspended as to such Member or any Related party for a period equal to
the aggregate quantity of time during which such Member or any Related Party violates such
prohibitions in any respect.

9. CHANGE IN CONTROL

In the event of a Change in Control (as defined below) of either Member (or, in the case of ZKH, of
ZKH or Procaps) such that the person or entity in control of the Member (or Procaps) is a
Competitor of the Company (as defined below), all of the Capital Interest of that Member shall be
deemed to be offered for sale to the other Member for a period of thirty (30) days from the later
of (i) the date of the Change in Control, or (ii) the date the selling Member delivers written
notice of the Change in Control to the other Member. During such thirty (30) day period the other
Member shall send written notice to the selling Member of its intention to purchase the offered
Capital Interest. If the other Member does not elect to purchase the offered Capital Interest
within such 30 day period, then the offer of sale shall expire. If the other Member does provide
timely written notice of its intention to purchase the Capital Interest, then the sale price for
such Capital Interest shall be seventy percent (70%) of the fair market value of such Capital
Interest, as determined by an independent third party appraisal firm, mutually agreeable to both
Members (the “Appraiser”). The closing of such sale of the Capital Interest shall be as soon as
practicable after the Appraiser determines the fair market value, but in no event more than 30 days
following such determination by the Appraiser. The determination of fair market value by the
Appraiser shall be binding on both parties.

For purposes of the Section, the term “Change in Control” with respect to either Member shall mean
either:

     (i) The consummation of a merger or consolidation of the Member (or, in the case of ZKH,
either ZKH or Procaps) with or into another entity, the sale of voting stock of the Member (or, in
the case of ZKH, either ZKH or Procaps), or any other corporate

 

- 9 -

reorganization, if more than 50% of the combined voting power of the continuing or surviving
entity’s securities outstanding immediately after such merger, consolidation, sale or other
reorganization is owned by persons or entities who were not stockholders of the Member (or, in the
case of ZKH, either ZKH or Procaps) immediately prior to such merger, consolidation, sale or other
reorganization; or

     (ii) The sale, transfer or other disposition of all or substantially all of the Member’s
(or, in the case of ZKH, either ZKH’s or Procaps’) assets.

For purposes of this Section, the term “Competitor” shall mean any other person or entity that
manufactures, markets or sells paintball products, including, without limitation, Brass Eagle,
Pursuit Marketing, National Paintball East, National Paintball South, Tippman, Kingman, and Zap
(AccuCaps).

10. SPECIFIC PERFORMANCE

Inasmuch as the Capital Interests are closely held and the market therefore is limited, irreparable
harm would result if this Members Agreement were not specifically enforced. Therefore, the rights
and obligations of the parties hereto and the transferees thereof to offer for sale and to purchase
Capital Interests shall be enforceable in a court of equity by a decree of specific performance,
and appropriate injunctive relief may be applied for and granted in connection therewith, and each
Member hereby agrees that any remedy at law for any breach of the provisions contained in Section 7
hereof shall be inadequate and that the Company shall be entitled to injunctive relief in addition
to any other remedy that the Company might have under this Agreement. Such remedies shall, however,
be cumulative and not exclusive and shall be in addition to any other remedies which any party my
have under this Members Agreement or otherwise.

11. INDEMNIFICATION

Each Member hereby agrees to indemnify and defend and hold harmless each of the other Members from
and against any and all losses, liabilities, damages, deficiencies, costs (including, without
limitation, court costs), and expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees) incurred
and arising out of or due to (i) any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement
of such Member contained herein, or (ii) claims of products liability, negligence, or strict
liability relating to products supplied by that Member or an Affiliate of such Member to the
Company, except to the extent arising out of the negligent acts or omissions of the Company.

contained herein, or (ii) claims of products liability, negligence, or strict liability relating to
products supplied by that Member or an

 

- 10 -

Affiliate of such Member to the Company, except to the extent arising out of the negligent acts or
omissions of the Company.
