writ, injunction, decree, statute, rule or regulation applicable to the Minority

any public offering or distribution of the same, and without any present
intention to sell the same at any particular event or circumstances. The Company
acknowledges that, consistent with the provisions of Sections 5.2 and 6 of this
Agreement, the Minority Investor intends to distribute the Company Shares to its
members that are Accredited Investors. The Minority Investor has no agreement or
other arrangement with any person to sell, transfer or pledge any part of the
Company Shares which

                                       3
<Page>

would guarantee it any profit or against any loss with respect to the Company
Shares.

4. REGISTRATION AND TRANSFER OF COMPANY SHARES.

   4.1. TRANSFER AND EXCHANGE OF COMPANY SHARES. The Company will cause a
transfer agent to maintain a register in which will be entered the names and
addresses of the holders of the Company Shares and the particulars of the
respective Company Shares held by them and of all transfers of the Company
Shares. Upon surrender to such transfer agent of any certificate representing
Company Shares for registration, exchange or (subject to compliance with
applicable federal and state securities laws and the applicable provisions of
this Agreement, including without limitation the conditions set forth in
Sections 5 and 6 hereof) transfer, the Company will cause the transfer agent to
issue, at the Company's expense, one or more new certificates, in such
denomination or denominations as may be requested, for such Company Shares and
registered as such holder may request. Any certificate representing Company
Shares surrendered for registration, exchange or transfer will be duly endorsed
for transfer, or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer duly executed
by the holder of such certificate or his attorney duly authorized in writing.
The Company will pay shipping and insurance charges, from and to each holder's
principal office, upon any registration, exchange or transfer provided for in
this Section 4.

   4.2. REPLACEMENT OF COMPANY SHARES. In the case of any loss, theft,
destruction or mutilation of the certificate representing any Company Share,
upon receipt of evidence thereof reasonably satisfactory to the Company, and (i)
in the case of any such loss, theft or destruction, upon delivery of an
indemnity agreement reasonably satisfactory to the Company, or (ii) in the case
of any such mutilation, upon the surrender to the Company at its principal
office of such mutilated certificate for cancellation, the Company will execute
and deliver, in lieu thereof, new certificates of like tenor. Any old stock
certificate in lieu of which any such new stock certificate has been so executed
and delivered by the Company will not be deemed to be outstanding for any
purpose of this Agreement or otherwise.

   4.3. RELIANCE ON REGISTER. The Company may rely for all purposes hereunder on
record ownership as shown on the register described in this Section 4 (except to
the extent that such register fails to reflect a transfer of which the Company
received due notice in accordance with Section 8.3 of this Agreement).

   5. RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER.

   5.1. GENERAL RESTRICTION. The Company Shares will be transferable only in
compliance with the conditions set forth in this Section 5. Any transfer or
purported transfer in violation of this Section 5 will be void.

   5.2. NOTICE OF TRANSFER. Prior to any transfer of any Company Shares, the
holder thereof will give written notice to the Company describing in reasonable
detail the manner and terms of the proposed transfer and the identity of the
proposed transferee, accompanied by the written agreement of the proposed
transferee to be bound by all of the provisions hereof applicable to holders of
Company Shares hereunder. In connection with the transfer of any Company Shares
(other than a transfer pursuant to Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities

                                       4
<Page>

Act or any similar rules then in effect or a transfer to a member of the
Minority Investor who is an Accredited Investor and agrees to be bound by this
Agreement), the Company may request an opinion of counsel of such holder prior
to such transfer to the effect that such transfer is exempt from the
registration requirements of the Securities Act.

   5.3. RESTRICTIVE LEGENDS. For so long as the Company Shares remain subject to
the restrictions on transfer set forth in this Section 5, the certificates
representing such Company Shares will bear restrictive legends in substantially
the following form:

         THE SECURITIES EVIDENCED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED
         UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE "ACT"), OR APPLICABLE
         STATE SECURITIES LAW AND MAY NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD, TRANSFERRED OR
         PLEDGED IN THE ABSENCE OF SUCH REGISTRATIONS OR VALID EXEMPTION FROM
         THE REGISTRATION AND PROSPECTUS DELIVERY REQUIREMENTS OF SAID ACT AND
         SUCH LAWS.

         THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE ARE SUBJECT TO THE TERMS
         OF A CERTAIN PURCHASE AGREEMENT DATED MARCH 10, 2003 BETWEEN THE
         COMPANY AND THE HOLDER (THE "PURCHASE AGREEMENT"). COPIES OF THE
         PURCHASE AGREEMENT COVERING SUCH TERMS AND RESTRICTING THE TRANSFER OF
         SHARES IS ON FILE AT THE PRINCIPAL BUSINESS OFFICE OF THE COMPANY.

   5.4. TERMINATION OF RESTRICTIONS. The restrictions imposed by this Section 5
upon the transferability of Company Shares will terminate as to any particular
Company Shares when such Company Shares have been sold pursuant to an effective
registration statement under the Securities Act, or pursuant to Rule 144 under
the Securities Act or any other exemption from the registration requirements of
the Securities Act pursuant to which the transferee is eligible to receive
securities that are not "restricted securities" within the meaning of that term
as defined in Rule 144(a)(3) or may be sold pursuant to Rule 144(k). Upon
receipt of an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company to the
effect that the legend described in the first paragraph of Section 5.3 hereof no
longer applies to such Company Shares, the Company shall promptly issue a
replacement certificate evidencing such Company Shares which does not contain
such legend. In addition, upon expiration of the Lock-Up Period or other
termination of the provisions of Section 6 with respect to any Company Shares,
the Company shall issue a replacement certificate evidencing such Company Shares
which does not contain the legend described in the second paragraph of
Section 5.3.

6. LOCK-UP AGREEMENT. Except as otherwise provided in this Section 6, the
Minority Investor agrees not to sell, loan, pledge or otherwise hypothecate or
encumber, grant any option for the purchase of or otherwise dispose of any
Company Shares or enter into any swap or other arrangement that transfers to
another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of
the Company Shares, whether any such previously described transaction is to be
settled by delivery of the Company Shares or other securities, in cash or
otherwise, without the prior written consent of the Company, for a term of three
years beginning on the date first written

                                       5
<Page>

above (such period, the "LOCK-UP PERIOD"). The Company may impose stop-transfer
instructions with respect to Company Shares subject to the foregoing
restrictions until the end of such Lock-Up Period. Notwithstanding anything to
the contrary in this Agreement, the Minority Investor shall have the right to
distribute all or any portion of the Company Shares to one or more of the
members of the Minority Investor, and any such member shall have the right to
transfer all or any portion of such Company Shares to one or more Permitted
Transferees of such member, without the consent of the Company, provided that
the transferee of Company Shares agrees in writing to be bound by the
restrictions of Sections 5 and 6, and provided further that any party
participating in any such distribution or transfer shall not directly or
indirectly recognize any income or loss for federal income tax purposes as a
result of such distribution or transfer of Company Shares or realize any income
or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of such distribution or
transfer of Company Shares during the Lock-Up Period. Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary in this Agreement, the Minority Investor, its members and its
Permitted Transferees shall have the right to tender all of the Company Shares
in a tender offer for 100% of the Company's issued and outstanding shares of
Company Common Stock.
