        This Amendment No. 1, dated as of July 22, 2002, to the Amended and Restated Employment Agreement, dated as of May 22, 2000 (the
"Agreement"), by and between Activision, Inc., a Delaware corporation with its principal offices at 3100 Ocean Park Boulevard, Santa Monica, CA 90405 (the "Company"), and BRIAN G. KELLY (the
"Executive"). 

        WHEREAS,
the Company and the Executive are parties to the Agreement, providing for the employment by the Company of the Executive and for compensation and benefits to be provided to the
Executive; 

        WHEREAS,
the parties hereto desire to extend the term of the Agreement as provided herein; and 

        WHEREAS,
in consideration for the Executive entering into this Amendment No. 1 to the Agreement, on July 22, 2002 the Company granted to the Executive options to purchase
up to 350,000 shares of common stock of the Company under the Activision, Inc. 2002 Executive Incentive Plan at $22.94 per share, the low bid price on such date. Options to purchase 250,000 of
the shares will vest in four equal amounts on July 22 of 2003, 2004, 2005 and 2006. Options to purchase the remaining 100,000 shares will vest in two equal amounts on July 22 of 2005 and
2006, subject to accelerated vesting if certain earnings targets are met. Regardless of vesting, the 100,000 options do not become exercisable until July 22, 2005. All of the options shall
expire on the tenth anniversary of the grant date. In the event of a termination of employment (other than a termination by the Company for cause or a voluntary termination by Executive), the options
must be exercised within the twelve month period following the termination of employment or the date first exercisable, whichever is later. 

        NOW,
THEREFORE, the parties hereto agree that the Agreement is amended as follows: 

        1.    Section 2
of the Agreement is hereby amended in its entirety to read as follows: 

Employment Period.    The employment of the Executive under the terms of this Agreement shall become effective on April 1, 2000 and
terminate on March 31, 2008 (the "Employment Period"). Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Executive's employment pursuant to the terms of this Agreement is subject to
termination pursuant to Section 5 below. 

        2.    Except
as specifically amended hereby, the Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and is hereby ratified and confirmed in all respects. 

        3.    This
Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original and all of which, taken together, shall constitute a single
agreement. 

        IN
WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have executed this Amendment No. 1 to the Agreement as of the date first written above.

Closing, LTBM and the LTBM Trustees hereby irrevocably re-confirm the
irrevocable grant pursuant to the terms of the Legally Binding Letter Agreement
to the Designee of the JHM Trustees of the option (hereinafter, the "JHM
OPTION") to purchase the LTBM Option Shares on the terms and conditions of this
Section 2.02.

        Except as provided below, for purposes of exercising the JHM Option, the
JHM Trustees or their Designee may elect, in lieu of acquiring LTBM Option
Shares, to acquire all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of any
holding company owned directly or indirectly by LTBM or the LTBM Trustees that
holds, directly or indirectly, the LTBM Option Shares. In such event, the
provisions hereof relating to delivery of the LTBM Option Shares, including that
such shares shall be free and clear of any lien, charge or other encumbrance,
shall apply to the shares of such holding company. To the extent that any such
holding company has at such time, any direct or indirect liabilities or direct
or indirect assets other than its direct or indirect interest in the LTBM Option
Shares, then, in connection with the exercise of the JHM Option, all of such
additional direct or indirect assets shall be removed or transferred to or to
the order of the LTBM Trustees and all of such liabilities shall be satisfied by
deducting the appropriate amount from the

                                       13
<Page>

exercise price. If any liabilities are not deducted from the exercise price, the
LTBM Trustees shall promptly reimburse the applicable holding company for the
full amount of any such liabilities. The JHM Trustees or their Designee shall
not be entitled to elect to acquire all of the issued and outstanding capital
stock of any holding company owned directly or indirectly by LTBM or the LTBM
Trustees that holds, directly or indirectly, the LTBM Option Shares if such
election would result in an increased tax liability for LTBM or the LTBM
Trustees over any tax liability that would apply as of the date of this
Agreement.

                (b)     EXERCISE PRICE. The exercise price for each of the LTBM
Option Shares underlying the JHM Option shall be calculated as follows:

                        (i)     During the period commencing on the Closing Date
and ending on the First Anniversary, the exercise price for each of the LTBM
Option Shares underlying the JHM Option shall be equal to EURO 7.50 plus
interest thereon calculated at the rate of 4.9% per annum, compounded annually,
calculated based on a 365-day year for the actual number of days elapsed from
the Closing Date until the date of exercise; or

                        (ii)    During the period commencing on the day after
the First Anniversary and continuing until the end of the Option Term, the
exercise price for each of the LTBM Option Shares underlying the JHM Option
shall be equal to EURO 8.10 plus interest thereon calculated at the rate of 4.9%
per annum, compounded annually, calculated based on a 365-day year for the
actual number of days elapsed from the day after the First Anniversary until the
date of exercise.

                (c)     FORM OF EXERCISE AND PAYMENT. The JHM Option may be
exercised at any time during the Option Term in whole, but not in part,
immediately upon giving a written notice of exercise to the LTBM Trustees. Such
notice shall be accompanied by payment in full of the exercise price for the
LTBM Option Shares underlying the JHM Option, which payment shall be in any of
the following forms:

                        (i)     in cash;

                        (ii)    in Institutional Notes; or

                        (iii)   any combination of (i) and (ii) above.

                In addition, if (A) LTBM or the LTBM Trustees have pledged the
LTBM Option Shares in order to borrow the LTBM Borrowed Funds (as permitted in
Section 2.07(a) below), and (B) upon the exercise of the JHM Option by the
Designee of the JHM Trustees, the LTBM Lender requires the LTBM Borrowed Funds
to be repaid prior to releasing the LTBM Option Shares, then (C) the JHM
Trustees or their Designee may deliver to the LTBM Lender that portion of the
exercise price for the LTBM Option Shares underlying the JHM Option as may be
necessary (as certified by the LTBM Lender) in order to repay the LTBM Borrowed
Funds and the delivery of such funds to the LTBM Lender shall satisfy the
obligation of the JHM Trustees

                                       14
<Page>

or their Designee to deliver such amount to the LTBM Trustees as payment for
that portion of the exercise price for the LTBM Option Shares underlying the JHM
Option.

                Upon exercise of the JHM Option in accordance with Section
2.02(c), and payment of the exercise price in accordance with Section 2.02(b),
LTBM or the LTBM Trustees shall immediately deliver (or, if applicable, cause
the LTBM Lender to deliver) the LTBM Option Shares to the JHM Trustees or their
Designee, free and clear of any lien, charge or other encumbrance (it being
understood that, if the JHM Option is exercised prior to the Separation Date,
the parties will provide any Authorizations necessary to cause the LTBM Option
Shares to be delivered to the Designee of the JHM Trustees).

Option by the Designee of the JHM Trustees, JHM and the JHM Trustees may sell
their entire interest in the Company, directly or indirectly, at any time
subject only to the obligations of JHM and the JHM Trustees under Section 2.10
and Section 2.11 hereof (if applicable) and the provision of the JHM Estate Plan
set forth in Section 19b of the Legally Binding Letter Agreement.

                JHM and the JHM Trustees shall have the option, but not the
obligation, to give LTBM and the LTBM Trustees non-binding advance notice of
their intent to exercise the JHM Option. Any such notice, if given, shall not
obligate JHM or the JHM Trustees to exercise the JHM Option. Upon the receipt of
any such advance notice, in order to facilitate the immediate delivery of the
LTBM Option Shares against payment of the exercise price, LTBM and the LTBM
Trustees shall take all reasonably necessary steps to deliver the LTBM Option
Shares at the time and place and on the date specified in such notice
(including, if requested by JHM or the JHM Trustees, depositing the LTBM Option
Shares with an independent escrow agent with instructions to release the LTBM
Option Shares against payment of the exercise price specified in Section
2.02(b)). The costs associated with any such escrow arrangement shall be paid by
(i) JHM or the JHM Trustees, if the JHM Option is not exercised on or about the
date set forth in the notice and (ii) LTBM or the LTBM Trustees, on the one
hand, and JHM or the JHM Trustees, on the other hand, in equal proportions, if
the JHM Option is exercised on or about the date set forth in the notice.

                (d)     TERM OF JHM OPTION. The JHM Option shall terminate
immediately upon the earliest to occur of: (i) the exercise of the JHM Option
and (ii) 5 p.m. (London, England, local time) on October 15, 2004; provided
however, that if the Extension Conditions have been satisfied, the term of the
JHM Option shall be automatically extended until May 16, 2005 unless fulfillment
of the Fulfillment of the Sales Condition is no longer possible because any of
the sales described in the definition of "Fulfillment of the Sales Condition"
are not consummated as described therein, in which case the term of the JHM
Option shall expire on the date on which the particular sale which has not been
consummated should have been made.

                If the JHM Option has expired unexercised, the LTBM Trustees
will hold the LTBM Option Shares free and clear of the JHM Option but shall
otherwise be bound by the terms and conditions of this Agreement (or any other
applicable agreement) concerning such

                                       15
<Page>

Shares. For clarity and avoidance of doubt, it is understood that Section 2.09
of this Agreement is operative whether the JHM Option is exercised or expires
unexercised.

                (e)     DESIGNEE. During the Option Term, the JHM Option shall
be exercisable by either the JHM Trustees or any Designee.

                (f)     CONTINUING RIGHT TO EXERCISE UPON LTBM'S DEATH. The JHM
Option shall remain in full force and effect and the JHM Trustees or any
Designee shall continue to have the right to exercise the JHM Option during the
Option Term notwithstanding LTBM's death.

        2.03.   CLOSING. The closing (the "CLOSING") of the Transactions shall
take place at the offices of Linklaters, at One Silk Street, London, England
EC2Y 8HQ at 1:00 p.m. (London, England, local time) on October 30, 2002, or as
soon as possible thereafter, with time being of the essence, or at such other
time and place as LTBM and JHM may agree. At the Closing:

                (a)     The LTBM Trustees and the JHM Trustees shall deliver
irrevocable instructions, in form and substance satisfactory to counsel for each
of LTBM, JHM, the LTBM Trustees and the JHM Trustees, evidencing their
irrevocable instructions and commitments to cause the Separation Transactions to
occur (including by depositing the JHM Emmet Shares and the LTBM Emmet Shares
with Linklaters Brussels pursuant to a mutually satisfactory escrow arrangement
by which Linklaters Brussels will hold the JHM Emmet Shares and the LTBM Emmet
Shares and deliver them to the appropriate party in connection with the
Separation Transactions).

                (b)     LTBM and the LTBM Trustee shall irrevocably instruct the
Person holding the LTBM Emmet Shares to deliver such Shares to Linklaters
Brussels.

                (c)     JHM and the JHM Trustees shall irrevocably instruct the
Person holding the JHM Emmet Shares to deliver such Shares to Linklaters
Brussels.

                (d)     The LTBM Trustees and the JHM Trustees (i) shall deliver
irrevocable instructions to Floscule to cause Floscule to make, or cause an
Affiliate of Floscule to make, a payment to the LTBM Trustees in an amount equal
to the LTBM Closing Date Payment and (ii) shall have received reasonably
satisfactory evidence from Floscule that such payment will be made promptly, for
value on the Closing Date within 48 hours after the Closing Date, to such bank
account or accounts as the LTBM Trustees may have specified in writing prior to
the Closing Date. For clarity and avoidance of doubt it is understood that the
LTBM Closing Date Payment shall be made without deduction or off-set.

                (e)     The LTBM Trustees and the JHM Trustees shall deliver
irrevocable instructions to Floscule to:

                        (i)     sell, at any time and from time to time until
November 29, 2002, all or any portion of the LTBM Released Shares, if such sales
can be accomplished at a gross

                                       16
<Page>

price (before commissions) of EURO 7.80 or above, and to pay the net proceeds of
each such sale to the LTBM Trustees within three Business Days following the
receipt of the proceeds of the relevant sale;

                        (ii)    sell, at any time and from time to time
beginning on November 30, 2002 and ending on the March Sale Date, upon the
request of JHM or the JHM Trustees, all or any portion of the LTBM Released
Shares as he or they shall specify, if such sales can be accomplished at a gross
price (before commissions) of EURO 7.80 or above, plus an amount per share equal
to 6.9% per annum, compounded annually, calculated based on a 365-day year for
the actual number of days elapsed from November 30, 2002 to the date of
completion of each sale, and to pay the net proceeds of each such sale to the
LTBM Trustees within three Business Days following the receipt of the proceeds
of each such sale; PROVIDED that (1) the LTBM Trustees may, by notice to JHM and
the JHM Trustees, elect to reduce the EURO 7.80 price set forth herein for any
or all of such sales, and (2) if the Separation Transactions are completed prior
to the March Sale Date, LTBM and the LTBM Trustees will sell the LTBM Released
Shares at the request of JHM or the JHM Trustees in accordance with the
foregoing provisions of this clause (ii);

                        (iii)   sell, at any time and from time to time
beginning on the March Sale Date and ending on the date of completion of the
Separation Transactions, upon the request of the LTBM Trustees, all or any
portion of the LTBM Released Shares and to pay the net proceeds of such sales to
the LTBM Trustees; PROVIDED that for clarity and avoidance of doubt, the LTBM
Trustees' ability to sell shares after the completion of the Separation
Transactions is set forth in Section 2.06(b); and

                        (iv)    undertake all sales under this Section 2.03(e)
in accordance with applicable securities law, in accordance with the Company's
blackout policy then in effect and pursuant to the terms of any applicable
unreleased lock-up agreement and, for clarity and avoidance of doubt, Section
2.06(f) and Section 2.06(g) shall not apply to sales permitted under this
Section 2.03(e).

                        To the extent that the LTBM Separation Transactions
Reserve has not been paid to Floscule in accordance with Section 5.06, there
shall be deducted from the net proceeds of the sale of LTBM Released Shares an
amount equal to the LTBM Separation Transactions Reserve, and such amount shall
be paid to Floscule.

                        To the extent that LTBM or the LTBM Trustees have not
paid their 48.5% share of any Disappearing Company Liability due to any creditor
pursuant to Section 6A.01(a), there shall be deducted from the net proceeds of
the sale of LTBM Released Shares an amount equal to such 48.5% share of such
Disappearing Company Liability and such amount shall be paid to the creditor
thereof.

        2.04.   LTBM OPTION TO PURCHASE JHM OPTION SHARES. If JHM dies during
the Option Term, LTBM or the LTBM Trustees shall have the option (the "LTBM
OPTION") to

                                       17
<Page>

purchase the JHM Option Shares upon the same terms and conditions and subject to
the same restrictions contained in this Agreement as may apply to JHM or the JHM
Trustees.

        2.05.   VOTING RESTRICTIONS AND AGREEMENTS.

                (a)     VOTING OF LTBM OPTION SHARES. At each meeting of
shareholders of the Company properly called, the LTBM Trustees shall be entitled
to vote or cause to be voted that number of the LTBM Option Shares then owned
directly or indirectly by the LTBM Trustees without restriction. No such vote by
the LTBM Trustees shall adversely affect the JHM Option or LTBM's or the LTBM
Trustees' obligations under this Agreement. JHM shall have no right to direct
the voting of the LTBM Option Shares.

                (b)     VOTING RESTRICTIONS DURING THE OPTION TERM. During the
Option Term, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law:

                        (i)     LTBM and the LTBM Trustees shall not vote or
cause to be voted, grant any proxy or power of attorney over, deposit into a
voting trust or enter into a voting agreement with respect to any of the LTBM
Restricted Voting Shares; and

                        (ii)    Except as permitted in Section 2.05(d), JHM and
the JHM Trustees shall not vote or cause to be voted, grant any proxy or power
of attorney over, deposit into a voting trust or enter into a voting agreement
with respect to any of the JHM Restricted Voting Shares.

                (c)     VOTING RESTRICTIONS IF JHM OPTION HAS EXPIRED
UNEXERCISED. If the JHM Option has expired unexercised, then from and after the
expiration of the Option Term, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable
law:

                        (i)     LTBM and the LTBM Trustees shall not vote or
cause to be voted, grant any proxy or power of attorney over, deposit into a
voting trust or enter into a voting agreement with respect to any of the LTBM
Restricted Voting Shares. The restrictions contained in this paragraph will
cease to apply when JHM and the JHM Trustees own less than 10,000,000 Shares of
the Company.

                        (ii)    JHM and the JHM Trustees shall not vote or cause
to be voted, grant any proxy or power of attorney over, deposit into a voting
trust or enter into a voting agreement with respect to any of the JHM Restricted
Voting Shares or the JHM Additional Restricted Voting Shares. The restrictions
contained in this paragraph will cease to apply when LTBM and the LTBM Trustees
own less than 10,000,000 Shares of the Company.

                        To the extent that any of the voting restrictions
contained in Sections 2.05(b) or (c) are unenforceable under Dutch law, the JHM
Trustees and the LTBM Trustees hereby agree to cause the Shares which are
subject to the relevant restriction to be voted

                                       18
<Page>

at each shareholders meeting of the Company in the same proportions as all other
Shares are voted at such meeting.

                (d)     SUPERVISORY BOARD NOMINEES AND ELECTIONS.

                        (i)     During the Option Term, the LTBM Trustees shall
be entitled to designate one individual as a nominee of the Floscule Group for
election as a member of the Supervisory Board, which nominee shall be Marie
Blouin Nightingale. During the Option Term, at each general meeting of
shareholders of the Company properly called involving the election of members of
the Supervisory Board, JHM and the JHM Trustees agree to: (A) cause Marie Blouin
Nightingale to be nominated for election as a member of the Supervisory Board,
(B) vote or cause to be voted the JHM Company Shares in favor of the election of
Marie Blouin Nightingale to the Supervisory Board and, if necessary, (C)
exercise, together with LTBM and the LTBM Trustees, their rights under the
Shareholders' Agreement (including Section 2.1 thereof) to cause Wendel to (I)
take any necessary action to cause Marie Blouin Nightingale to be nominated for
election as a member of the Supervisory Board and (II) vote, or cause to be
voted, the Shares owned by Wendel in favor of Marie Blouin Nightingale. After
the Closing Date, at all meetings of the Supervisory Board prior to the meeting
of shareholders at which Ms. Nightingale will be elected, JHM shall use
reasonable best efforts to cause the Supervisory Board to invite Ms. Nightingale
to attend such meetings as an observer.

                        (ii)    If the Option Term has been extended beyond
October 15, 2004 pursuant to the provisions of Section 2.02(d), then beginning
on October 15, 2004 and continuing until the end of the Option Term, the LTBM
Trustees shall be entitled to designate one additional individual as a nominee
of the Floscule Group for election as a member of the Supervisory Board, which
may be LTBM. Such nominee, if not LTBM, shall be reasonably satisfactory to JHM
(it being understood that such nominee may not be (1) an investment banker under
engagement with or previously under engagement with LTBM or (2) a lawyer who has
performed or expects to perform non-business legal services for LTBM). Beginning
on October 15, 2004 and continuing until the end of the Option Term, at each
general meeting of shareholders of the Company properly called involving the
election of members of the Supervisory Board, JHM and the JHM Trustees agree to:
(A) cause such nominee to be nominated for election as a member of the
Supervisory Board, (B) vote or cause to be voted the JHM Company Shares in favor
of such nominee and, if necessary, (C) exercise, together with LTBM and the LTBM
Trustees, their rights under the Shareholders' Agreement (including Section 2.1
thereof) to cause Wendel to (I) take any necessary action to cause such nominee
to be nominated for election as a member of the Supervisory Board and (II) vote,
or cause to be voted, the Shares owned by Wendel in favor of such nominee. The
provisions of this paragraph will cease to apply when LTBM and the LTBM Trustees
own less than 19,165,307 Shares of the Company. After October 15, 2004, at all
meetings of the Supervisory Board prior to the meeting of shareholders at which
such nominee will be elected, JHM shall use reasonable best efforts to cause the
Supervisory Board to invite such nominee to attend such meetings as an observer.

<Page>

                        (iii)   If the JHM Option has expired unexercised, then
from and after the expiration of the Option Term:

                                (A)     (I) the LTBM Trustees shall be entitled
to designate two individuals as nominees of the Floscule Group, one of whom may
be LTBM, for election as members of the Supervisory Board (the "LTBM FIRST TIER
NOMINEES"), such LTBM First Tier Nominees, if not LTBM, to be reasonably
satisfactory to JHM (it being understood that none of such LTBM First Tier
Nominees may be (1) investment bankers under engagement with or previously under
engagement with LTBM or (2) lawyers who have performed or expect to perform
non-business legal services for LTBM), and (II) at each general meeting of
shareholders of the Company properly called involving the election of members of
the Supervisory Board, JHM and the JHM Trustees agree to: (V) cause the LTBM
First Tier Nominees to be nominated for election as members of the Supervisory
Board, (W) vote or cause to be voted the JHM Company Shares in favor of the LTBM
First Tier Nominees and, if necessary, (X) exercise, together with LTBM and the
LTBM Trustees, their rights under the Shareholders' Agreement (including Section
2.1 thereof) to cause Wendel to (Y) take any necessary action to cause the LTBM
First Tier Nominees to be nominated for election as members of the Supervisory
Board and (Z) vote, or cause to be voted, the Shares owned by Wendel in favor of
the LTBM First Tier Nominees. The provisions of this paragraph will cease to
apply when LTBM and the LTBM Trustees own less than 19,165,307 Shares of the
Company.

                                (B)     (I) the LTBM Trustees shall be entitled
to designate one individual as a nominee of the Floscule Group, which may be
LTBM, for election as a member of the Supervisory Board (the "LTBM SECOND TIER
NOMINEE"), such LTBM Second Tier Nominee, if not LTBM, to be reasonably
satisfactory to JHM (it being understood that such LTBM Second Tier Nominee may
not be (1) an investment banker under engagement with or previously under
engagement with LTBM or (2) a lawyer who has performed or expects to perform
non-business legal services for LTBM), and (II) at each general meeting of
shareholders of the Company properly called involving the election of members of
the Supervisory Board, JHM and the JHM Trustees agree to: (V) cause the LTBM
Second Tier Nominee to be nominated for election as a member of the Supervisory
Board, (W) vote or cause to be voted the JHM Company Shares in favor of the LTBM
Second Tier Nominee and, if necessary, (X) exercise, together with LTBM and the
LTBM Trustees, their rights under the Shareholders' Agreement (including Section
2.1 thereof) to cause Wendel to (Y) take any necessary action to cause the LTBM
Second Tier Nominee to be nominated for election as a member of the Supervisory
Board and (Z) vote, or cause to be voted, the Shares owned by Wendel in favor of
the LTBM Second Tier Nominee. The provisions of this paragraph shall not be
additive to the provisions of Section 2.05(d)(iii)(A) above, and shall cease to
apply when LTBM and the LTBM Trustees own less than 10,000,000 Shares of the
Company.

                        (iv)    For clarity and avoidance of doubt, the LTBM
Trustees shall not be able to designate more than two nominees to the
Supervisory Board (including observers pending any general meeting involving
election of members of the Supervisory Board), but shall be entitled to replace
the LTBM First Tier Nominees and the LTBM Second Tier Nominee (as

                                       20
<Page>

applicable) from time to time, provided that (A) such replacement LTBM First
Tier Nominees and LTBM Second Tier Nominee (as applicable), if not LTBM, are
reasonably satisfactory to JHM (it being understood that such LTBM First Tier
Nominees and LTBM Second Tier Nominee (as applicable) may not be (1) an
investment banker under engagement with or previously under engagement with LTBM
or (2) a lawyer who has performed or expects to perform non-business legal
services for LTBM) and (B) no replacement shall be appointed until the
predecessor has resigned and the replacement has been duly elected as a member
of the Supervisory Board.

        2.06.   DISPOSITION MATTERS.

                (a)     RESTRICTIONS ON LTBM OPTION SHARES. During the Option
Term, except as permitted under Section 2.07(a) hereof or as otherwise
contemplated by this Agreement, neither LTBM nor the LTBM Trustees will, without
the express written consent of the JHM Trustees, directly or indirectly, offer
for sale, sell, transfer, pledge, encumber, assign or otherwise dispose of, or
enter into any contract, option or other arrangement or understanding with
respect to or consent to the offer for sale, sale, transfer, tender, pledge,
encumbrance, assignment or other disposition of, any or all of the LTBM Option
Shares or any interest therein, including adding any beneficiaries of the LTBM
Trust other than LTBM and/or her children. Notwithstanding the foregoing
restriction, LTBM and the LTBM Trustees may transfer Class A Shares included in
the LTBM Option Shares and the LTBM Released Shares to a second trustee, or to a
special purpose company wholly owned by such trustee (the "LTBM CLASS A
TRUSTEE"), to hold such Class A Shares on trust for the benefit of LTBM and/or
any other person LTBM may designate (the "LTBM CLASS A TRUST"), provided that
the LTBM Class A Trustee executes a counterpart signature page to this Agreement
agreeing to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Agreement applicable to
the LTBM Trustees in respect of any Class A Shares so transferred. In such
event, all references herein to the LTBM Trust shall be deemed to be references
to both the LTBM Trust and the LTBM Class A Trust and all references herein to
the LTBM Trustees shall be deemed to be references to both the LTBM Trustees and
the LTBM Class A Trustee.

                (b)     PERMITTED SALES OF LTBM RELEASED SHARES; PRICE
PROTECTION.

                        (i)     Beginning on the later of (i) the March Sale
Date and (ii) the date of completion of the Separation Transactions, the LTBM
Trustees may freely sell, transfer, pledge, encumber, assign or otherwise
dispose of the LTBM Released Shares provided such sale, transfer, pledge,
encumbrance, assignment or disposition is undertaken in accordance with
applicable securities law, in accordance with the Company's blackout policy then
in effect, insofar as it applies to LTBM and the LTBM Trustees, and pursuant to
the terms of any applicable unreleased lock-up agreement. For clarity and
avoidance of doubt, Section 2.06(f) and Section 2.06(g) shall not apply to sales
permitted under this clause.

                        (ii)    If (A) the average gross price per share (before
commissions) received pursuant to Section 2.03(e)(iii) or pursuant to clause
(b)(i) above on the sale of the LTBM Released Shares pursuant to such Section
2.03(e)(iii) or clause (b)(i) above is less than

                                       21
<Page>

EURO 7.80, PLUS an amount per share equal to 6.9% per annum, compounded
annually, calculated based on a 365-day year for the actual number of days
elapsed from November 30, 2002 to the date of completion of each sale (such
shortfall, the "PRICE SHORTFALL"), and (B) the Price Shortfall Protection Shares
shall have been transferred to the Escrow Agent by the JHM Trustees (which, for
clarity and avoidance of doubt, will not have taken place if all of the LTBM
Released Shares are sold on or prior to November 29, 2002 or JHM has declined to
extend the Option Term until May 16, 2005), then the LTBM Trustees may, once all
of the LTBM Released Shares are sold, cause the Escrow Agent to sell, after the
March Sale Date and prior to June 30, 2003, such number of the Price Shortfall
Protection Shares as are necessary to obtain gross proceeds (before commission)
equal to the Price Shortfall, and the proceeds from the sale of such number of
Price Shortfall Protection Shares shall be paid to the LTBM Trustees. All sales
pursuant to this clause (ii) shall be undertaken in accordance with applicable
securities laws, in accordance with the Company's blackout policy then in
effect, insofar as it applies to LTBM and the LTBM Trustees, and pursuant to the
terms of any unreleased applicable lock-up agreement. For clarity and avoidance
of doubt, Section 2.06(f) and Section 2.06(g) shall not apply to sales of Price
Shortfall Protection Shares permitted under this clause. Notwithstanding the
foregoing in this Section 2.06(b)(ii), (A) to the extent that the LTBM
Separation Transactions Reserve has not been paid to Floscule in accordance with
Section 5.06, there shall be deducted from the Price Shortfall paid to the LTBM
Trustees an amount equal to the LTBM Separation Transactions Reserve and such
amount shall be paid to TMF for disbursement pursuant to Section 10.04 and (B)
to the extent that LTBM or the LTBM Trustees have not paid their 48.5% share of
any Disappearing Company Liability due to any creditor pursuant to Section
6A.01(a), there shall be deducted from the Price Shortfall paid to the LTBM
Trustees an amount equal to such 48.5% share of such Disappearing Company
Liability and such amount shall be paid to the creditor thereof.

                        (iii)   Delivery of the Price Shortfall Protection
Shares in accordance with clause (ii) above shall act as a complete and total
accord and satisfaction of any and all responsibility or liability JHM or the
JHM Trustees may have with respect to the Price Shortfall. Neither JHM nor the
JHM Trustees shall have any liability whatsoever if the total proceeds from the
sale of Price Shortfall Protection Shares in accordance with clause (ii) above
is less than the Price Shortfall. Any Price Shortfall Protection Shares not sold
pursuant to clause (ii) above shall be returned or released to the JHM Trustees
promptly after the earliest of (A) the date on which it is determined that there
will be no Price Shortfall, (B) the date on which the Price Shortfall shall have
been met and (C) June 30, 2003.

                (c)     PERMITTED SALES OF JHM COMPANY SHARES. After the Closing
Date, subject to applicable securities law and the Company's blackout policy
then in effect, the JHM Trustees, subject to the provisions of the JHM Deed of
Trust, may freely sell, transfer, pledge, encumber, assign or otherwise dispose
of up to 3,500,000 of the JHM Company Shares during the Option Term, except
during the Blackout Periods (if applicable). For purposes of this paragraph,
"BLACKOUT PERIODS" means each of the following: (a) the period commencing on the
Closing Date and ending on the earlier of (i) the date when all of the LTBM
Released Shares have been sold (it being understood that off-market sales by JHM
may take place on the same

                                       22
<Page>

date, in the same transaction, as sales of the LTBM Released Shares) and (ii)
the date when the Price Shortfall Protection Shares are delivered to the Escrow
Agent, and (b) the period commencing on July 15, 2004 and ending on October 15,
2004. Upon exercise of the JHM Option, the Blackout Periods shall cease to
apply. For clarity and avoidance of doubt, Section 2.06(f) and Section 2.06(g)
shall not apply to sales permitted under this paragraph. If the Separation
Transactions have not been completed at the time JHM or the JHM Trustees are
permitted to sell Shares, each of LTBM, the LTBM Trustees, JHM and the JHM
Trustees acknowledge and agree that the Authorizations shall be construed to
include instructions to Floscule or its applicable successor companies to sell
such Shares at the request of JHM or the JHM Trustees and to pay the proceeds
thereof to the JHM Trustees pending completion of the Separation Transactions.

                (d)     PERMITTED SALES OF LTBM STOCK OPTION SHARES AND SHARES
ACQUIRED AFTER THE CLOSING DATE. After the Closing Date, LTBM and the LTBM
Trustees may freely sell, transfer, pledge, encumber, assign or otherwise
dispose of both (i) the LTBM Stock Option Shares (if outstanding) and (ii) any
Shares acquired by LTBM or the LTBM Trustees after the Closing Date. For clarity
and avoidance of doubt, Section 2.06(f) and Section 2.06(g) shall not apply to
sales permitted under this paragraph.

                (e)     PERMITTED SALES OF JHM STOCK OPTION SHARES AND SHARES
ACQUIRED AFTER THE CLOSING DATE. After the Closing Date, JHM and the JHM
Trustees may freely sell, transfer, pledge, encumber, assign or otherwise
dispose of both (i) the JHM Stock Option Shares (if outstanding) and (ii) any
Shares acquired by JHM or the JHM Trustees after the Closing Date, including
without limitation, the LTBM Option Shares acquired upon exercise of the JHM
Option. For clarity and avoidance of doubt, Section 2.06(f) and Section 2.06(g)
shall not apply to sales permitted under this paragraph.

                (f)     RIGHTS OF FIRST REFUSAL ON SALES OF CLASS B SHARES. From
and after the Closing Date and until the end of the Option Term, or, if the JHM
Option has expired unexercised, from and after such expiration date, LTBM, the
LTBM Trustees, JHM and the JHM Trustees may not consummate any sale of Class B
Shares of the Company without giving the other party in writing the right (the
"OFFER"), for a period of 60 days (30 days in the event of any proposed sale of
less than 1,000,000 Class B Shares) from the date of delivery of the Offer, to
(A) purchase from the seller, on terms and conditions no less favorable
(including, without limitation, price) to the seller as contained in the Offer,
all of the Class B Shares of the Company proposed to be sold by the seller or
(B) deliver to the seller that number of Class A Shares of the Company owned by
the non-selling party as is equal to the number of Class B Shares proposed to be
sold by the seller in exchange for the seller delivering an equal number of
Class B Shares of the Company to such non-selling party. To exercise their
rights under (A) or (B) above, the non-selling party shall deliver to the seller
within the 60 or 30 day period contemplated above, written notice of their
intent to exercise their rights under (A) or (B) and specifying the Class B
Shares they intend to purchase under (A) or the number of Class A Shares they
intend to exchange under (B). Such communication, when delivered, shall be
deemed to constitute a valid, binding and enforceable agreement for the sale or
exchange of the Class B Shares specified in

                                       23
<Page>

such communication. The sale or exchange under (A) or (B) shall take place no
more than ten days after the delivery of such communication by the non-selling
party. If the non-selling party does not exercise its rights under the Offer
within the time period specified, or, in the case of an exchange, exercises its
rights for less than the maximum number of Class B Shares subject to the Offer,
the seller shall thereafter be free to sell the Class B Shares proposed to be
sold that have not been sold or exchanged with the non-selling party. Any sale
hereunder must be upon the terms and conditions no more favorable than those in
the Offer. For purposes of this paragraph, references to "party" shall mean
either (X) JHM or the JHM Trustees, collectively as a group, or (Y) LTBM or the
LTBM Trustees, collectively as a group. The obligation of JHM or the JHM
Trustees to comply with the notice and offer provisions of this paragraph and
the right of LTBM or the LTBM Trustees to purchase or exchange Class B Shares
hereunder shall cease to apply when LTBM and the LTBM Trustees own less than
10,000,000 Shares of the Company. The obligation of LTBM or the LTBM Trustees to
comply with the notice and offer provisions of this paragraph and the right of
JHM or the JHM Trustees to purchase or exchange Class B Shares hereunder shall
cease to apply when JHM and the JHM Trustees own less than 10,000,000 Shares of
the Company. It is understood and agreed that (1) if the JHM Trustees or their
Designee exercise the JHM Option, the provisions of this Section 2.06(f) shall
not apply no matter when the sale of Class B Shares may thereafter occur and (2)
the provisions of this Section 2.06(f) shall not apply to any actual or proposed
sale of Class B Shares by JHM or the JHM Trustees that will be consummated after
the exercise of the JHM Option.

                (g)     TAG-ALONG RIGHTS. (i) From and after the Closing Date
and until the end of the Option Term, or, if the JHM Option has expired
unexercised, from and after such expiration date, if JHM and the JHM Trustees
wish to sell any Shares (whether Class A Shares or Class B Shares or both) of
the Company then JHM and the JHM Trustees shall, subject to their obligations
under Section 2.06(f) hereof for Class B Shares, notify LTBM and the LTBM
Trustees in writing of the terms and conditions of such sale. LTBM and the LTBM
Trustees shall thereafter have the right to sell to the purchaser, at the same
price per share and on the same terms and conditions as involved in such sale by
JHM and the JHM Trustees, that number of Shares as is equal to the number of
Shares proposed to be sold by JHM or the JHM Trustees multiplied by a fraction,
the numerator of which is the aggregate number of Shares then owned by LTBM and
the LTBM Trustees (calculated on a fully diluted basis) and the denominator of
which is the sum of all Shares of the Company owned by JHM, the JHM Trustees,
LTBM and the LTBM Trustees (calculated on a fully diluted basis). If LTBM or the
LTBM Trustees desire to sell Shares to the purchaser hereunder, they shall
notify JHM and the JHM Trustees of their intention within ten days of receipt of
the terms and conditions of the sale. Thereafter, JHM, the JHM Trustees, LTBM
and the LTBM Trustees shall sell to the purchaser the Shares entitled to be sold
by them hereunder upon the same terms and conditions. In the event that the
purchaser purchases less than the full number of Shares originally proposed to
be sold by JHM or the JHM Trustees, such purchases shall be made from each of
JHM, the JHM Trustees, LTBM and the LTBM Trustees pro rata based upon the
relative amount of Shares that each are entitled to sell pursuant to this
paragraph. The provisions of this paragraph shall cease to apply when LTBM and
the LTBM Trustees own less than 10,000,000 Shares of the Company. It is
understood and agreed that (1) if the JHM Trustees or their Designee exercise
the JHM Option, the provisions of

                                       24
<Page>

this Section 2.06(g) shall not apply no matter when the sale of Shares may
thereafter occur and (2) the provisions of this Section 2.06(g)(i) shall not
apply to any actual or proposed sale of Shares by JHM or the JHM Trustees that
will be consummated after the exercise of the JHM Option.

                        (ii)    If the JHM Option has expired unexercised, from
and after the expiration of the Option Term, if LTBM and the LTBM Trustees wish
to sell any Shares (whether Class A Shares or Class B Shares or both) of the
Company in a transaction in which Section 3.5(a) of the Shareholders' Agreement
applies, then LTBM and the LTBM Trustees shall, subject to their obligations
under Section 2.06(f) hereof for Class B Shares, notify JHM and the JHM Trustees
in writing of the terms and conditions of such sale. JHM and the JHM Trustees
shall thereafter have the right to sell to the purchaser, at the same price per
share and on the same terms and conditions as involved in such sale by LTBM and
the LTBM Trustees, that number of Shares as is equal to the number of Shares
proposed to be sold by LTBM or the LTBM Trustees multiplied by a fraction, the
numerator of which is the aggregate number of Shares then owned by JHM and the
JHM Trustees (calculated on a fully diluted basis) and the denominator of which
is the sum of all Shares of the Company owned by LTBM, the LTBM Trustees, JHM
and the JHM Trustees (calculated on a fully diluted basis). If JHM or the JHM
Trustees desire to sell Shares to the purchaser hereunder, they shall notify
LTBM and the LTBM Trustees of their intention within ten days of receipt of the
terms and conditions of the sale. Thereafter, LTBM, the LTBM Trustees, JHM and
the JHM Trustees shall sell to the purchaser the Shares entitled to be sold by
them hereunder upon the same terms and conditions. In the event that the
purchaser purchases less than the full number of Shares originally proposed to
be sold by LTBM or the LTBM Trustees, such purchases shall be made from each of
LTBM, the LTBM Trustees, JHM and the JHM Trustees pro rata based upon the
relative amount of Shares that each are entitled to sell pursuant to this
paragraph. The provisions of this paragraph shall cease to apply when JHM and
the JHM Trustees own less than 10,000,000 Shares of the Company.

                (h)     NOTICE OF SALES. In addition to the requirements of
Section 2.06(f) and Section 2.06(g) hereof, if the JHM Option has expired
unexercised, from and after the expiration of the Option Term: (A) JHM or the
JHM Trustees shall use commercially reasonable efforts to notify LTBM and the
LTBM Trustees at any time prior to the sale or proposed sale by JHM or the JHM
Trustees of more than 100,000 Shares of the Company, and (B) LTBM or the LTBM
Trustees shall use commercially reasonable efforts to notify JHM and the JHM
Trustees at any time prior to the sale or proposed sale by LTBM or the LTBM
Trustees of more than 100,000 Shares of the Company.

                (i)     ACKNOWLEDGMENT BY LTBM AND THE LTBM TRUSTEES. LTBM and
the LTBM Trustees acknowledge and agree that securities law in the United
States, the Netherlands and other countries prohibit the sale of securities
while in possession of material non-public information. LTBM and the LTBM
Trustees covenant and agree that they will not sell any of their Shares while in
the possession of material non-public information of the Company.

                (j)     NON-DISCLOSURE OBLIGATION OF LTBM AND THE LTBM TRUSTEES.
LTBM and the LTBM Trustees acknowledge and agree that they may acquire
confidential or non-public information concerning the Company as a result of the
exercise of certain of their rights under this Agreement. As a result, LTBM and
the LTBM Trustees agree to keep such information confidential and agree not to,
directly or indirectly, disclose it to any other Person; PROVIDED that LTBM or
the LTBM Trustees may disclose such information to their advisors so long as
such advisors agree to keep such information confidential.

                (a)     BORROWINGS SECURED BY LTBM OPTION SHARES.
Notwithstanding Section 2.06(a) hereof, the LTBM Trustees may (i) pledge the
LTBM Option Shares to secure the borrowing of funds (the "LTBM BORROWED FUNDS")

Trustees and (ii) distribute the LTBM Borrowed Funds to LTBM provided that the

following provisions:

                        (i)     a provision requiring the LTBM Lender to provide
                                notice to JHM and to the JHM Trustees upon the

                                the JHM Trustees an equivalent number of Class B

                                to secure the LTBM Borrowed Funds;

                        (iii)   a provision prohibiting the LTBM Lender, any
                                collateral agent of the LTBM Lender or any other
                                third party, from taking possession of,
                                ownership of, or taking title to, or selling or
                                causing to sell any Class B Shares comprising
                                the LTBM Option Shares pledged to secure the
                                LTBM Borrowed Funds without first providing
                                notice to JHM and to the JHM Trustees and
                                allowing, within 15 Business Days, JHM and the
                                JHM Trustees to deliver Class A Shares
                                comprising the JHM Company Shares to the LTBM
                                Lender in exchange for the LTBM Lender or the
                                LTBM Trustees, as applicable, delivering to JHM
                                or the JHM Trustees an equivalent number of
                                Class B Shares comprising the LTBM Option Shares
                                pledged to secure the LTBM Borrowed Funds; and

                                       26
<Page>

                        (iv)    a provision requiring the LTBM Lender to deliver
                                any LTBM Option Shares held by it as directed by
                                JHM and the JHM Trustees in the event that the
                                JHM Trustees or their Designee exercise the JHM
                                Option, provided that if required by the LTBM
                                Lender, the JHM Trustees or their Designee
                                deliver all or a portion of the exercise price
                                for the LTBM Option Shares underlying the JHM
                                Option to the LTBM Lender in order to pay off
                                the LTBM Borrowed Funds.

                (b)     BORROWINGS SECURED BY JHM OPTION SHARES. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the JHM Trustees may (i) pledge the
JHM Option Shares to secure the borrowing of funds (the "JHM BORROWED FUNDS")
from a lender (the "JHM LENDER") that is not an Affiliate of JHM or the JHM
Trustees and (ii) distribute the JHM Borrowed Funds to JHM provided that the
Loan Agreement entered into with the JHM Lender that governs the terms and
conditions of the JHM Borrowed Funds and the terms and conditions of the pledge
of the JHM Option Shares (the "JHM LOAN AGREEMENT") contains all of the
following provisions:

                        (i)     a provision requiring the JHM Lenders to provide
                                notice to LTBM and to the LTBM Trustees upon the

                        (ii)    a provision requiring the JHM Lender to allow
                                LTBM and the LTBM Trustees to deliver to the JHM

                                Trustees an equivalent number of Class B Shares

                        (iii)   a provision prohibiting the JHM Lender, any
                                collateral agent of the JHM Lender or any other
                                third party, from taking possession of,
                                ownership of, or taking title to, or selling or
                                causing to sell any Class B Shares comprising
                                the JHM Option Shares pledged to secure the JHM
                                Borrowed Funds without first providing notice to
                                LTBM and to the LTBM Trustees and allowing,
                                within 15 Business Days, LTBM and the LTBM
                                Trustees to deliver Class A Shares comprising
                                the LTBM Company Shares to the JHM Lender in
                                exchange for the JHM Lender or the JHM Trustees,
                                as applicable, delivering to the LTBM or the
                                LTBM Trustees an equivalent number of Class B
                                Shares comprising the JHM Option Shares pledged
                                to secure the JHM Borrowed Funds; and

                                       27
<Page>

                        (iv)    a provision requiring the JHM Lender to deliver
                                any JHM Option Shares held by it as directed by
                                LTBM and the LTBM Trustees in the event that
                                LTBM or the LTBM Trustees or their Designee
                                exercise the LTBM Option, provided that if
                                required by the JHM Lender, the LTBM Trustees or
                                their Designee deliver all or a portion of the
                                exercise price for the JHM Option Shares
                                underlying the LTBM Option to the JHM Lender in
                                order to pay off the JHM Borrowed Funds.

Notwithstanding the foregoing in this Section 2.07(b), nothing herein shall
prohibit or otherwise restrict JHM or the JHM Trustees from borrowing against a
pledge of the JHM Counterpart Shares, and none of the terms and conditions set
forth in clauses (i) - (iv) in this Section 2.07(b) shall apply to any such
borrowing or pledge. If the Separation Transactions have not been completed at
the time JHM or the JHM Trustees desires to borrow pursuant to the immediately
preceding sentence, each of LTBM, the LTBM Trustees, JHM and the JHM Trustees
acknowledge and agree that the Authorizations shall be construed to include
instructions to Floscule to pledge the applicable number of JHM Counterpart
Shares at the request of JHM or the JHM Trustees in connection with such
borrowing pending completion of the Separation Transactions.

        2.08.   RESERVED.

        2.09.   WAIVER OF RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL UNDER THE SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT.
Effective at the Closing but not at any time prior to the Closing, each of JHM
and LTBM hereby waives his or her right of first refusal (as set forth in
Section 19 of the Settlement Agreement) with respect to the LTBM Company Shares
and the JHM Company Shares, in consideration of the rights of first refusal
contained in Section 2.06(f). LTBM acknowledges that, effective at the Closing,
Section 5.04 releases JHM from any further obligation under such right of first
refusal. JHM acknowledges that, effective at the Closing, Section 6.03 releases
LTBM from any further obligation under such right of first refusal. This Section
2.09 shall not be construed as a waiver of any of the provisions of Section
2.06(f).

        2.10.   FIRST CONTINGENT ADDITIONAL PAYMENT.

                (a)     As used in this Section 2.10, the following terms have
the following meanings:

        "EXCESS EQUITY VALUE" means, if positive, Per Share Excess Equity Value
multiplied by the number of LTBM Option Shares. Excess Equity Value shall be
payable in the same portion of cash and non-cash as are the Sale Event Proceeds.
To the extent that the non-cash proportion of the Sale Event Proceeds is
composed of securities of companies not listed on a regulated market, the LTBM
Trustees will receive the cash equivalent of that non-cash proportion of the
Sale Event Proceeds as valued under the definition of "Sale Event Proceeds".

                                       28
<Page>

        "PER SHARE EXCESS EQUITY VALUE" means (a) Per Share Sale Event Proceeds
minus (b) EURO 8.00.

        "PER SHARE SALE EVENT PROCEEDS" means the Sale Event Proceeds divided
by the number of Shares of the Company sold on the date of consummation of the
Sale Event.

        "SALE EVENT" means the sale to a Third Party by JHM, the JHM Trustees
and/or their Affiliates, directly or indirectly, of Shares conferring control of
the Company on such Third Party.

        "SALE EVENT PROCEEDS" means the net proceeds, after transaction
expenses, actually received by the controlling shareholders of the Company in
connection with a Sale Event. Any non-cash consideration shall be valued at its
Fair Market Value. The "FAIR MARKET VALUE" of any non-cash consideration shall
be (i) in respect of non-cash consideration consisting of publicly-traded
securities, the average closing price of such securities on the principal
securities exchange on which such securities are traded for the five trading
days preceding the date of consummation of the Sale Event transaction, and (ii)
in respect of other non-cash consideration, Fair Market Value shall be as
reasonably determined by the Supervisory Board of the Company; PROVIDED that if
the LTBM Trustees disagree with the valuation determined by the Supervisory
Board of the Company, the LTBM Trustees may upon notice to the Supervisory Board
of the Company within 10 days of receiving notice of its valuation of the
non-cash consideration retain an internationally recognized investment bank,
public accounting firm or appraisal firm (an "APPRAISER") to value the non-cash
consideration. The Appraiser shall be required to complete its valuation work
within 30 days of the LTBM Trustees' notice to the Supervisory Board of the
Company referred to above. The Appraiser shall independently determine the value
of the non-cash consideration as of a recent date selected by the Appraiser
using valuation methodologies customary in the valuation of such non-cash
consideration. The Appraiser shall be instructed to express its valuation
opinion in the form of a single value that in the opinion of such Appraiser most
closely approximates the value of the non-cash consideration. If the Appraiser
shall fail to express its assessment of the value of the non-cash consideration
as a single value, that Appraiser shall be deemed to have expressed as its
single value the midpoint of the highest and lowest values of all ranges
expressed. The Fair Market Value of the non-cash consideration shall be the
average of the two values arrived at by the Supervisory Board of the Company and
the Appraiser, provided that if the value determined by the Appraiser is more
than 10% greater than the value determined by the Supervisory Board of the
Company, the following procedure shall apply: the Supervisory Board of the
Company and the first Appraiser shall select a second Appraiser. If the
Supervisory Board of the Company and the Appraiser cannot agree on a second
Appraiser within 10 days, the second Appraiser shall be PricewaterhouseCoopers
(Amsterdam) or its successor. The second Appraiser shall independently determine
the value of the non-cash consideration as of the date selected by the first
Appraiser using valuation methodologies customary in the valuation of the
non-cash consideration. The second Appraiser shall then decide which of the two
values arrived at by the Supervisory Board of the Company and the Appraiser is
closer to the value that the second Appraiser would have arrived at
independently, which value shall be the "FAIR MARKET VALUE" of the non-cash
consideration. The value of the non-cash consideration

                                       29
<Page>

determined by the foregoing procedure shall be final and binding upon both LTBM,
the LTBM Trustees and the Supervisory Board of the Company. The fees and

businesses and sales of businesses, irrespective of the form of such purchases
or sales), restructurings, recapitalizations, joint ventures (whether

number of securities sold or the use of proceeds thereof) and other
extraordinary transactions involving the debt and equity capital, business and
operations of the Company. LTBM and the LTBM Trustees expressly acknowledge that
the only extraordinary transaction which will constitute a Sale Event is one
which expressly falls within the definition of Sale Event. LTBM and the LTBM
Trustees also acknowledge that, even if such extraordinary transaction falls
within the definition of Sale Event, they will not be entitled to any Excess
Equity Value unless the definitive agreement in writing to effect such Sale
Event is executed and delivered prior to July 31, 2003.

anniversary of the Closing Date and continuing until the date that is the six
year anniversary of the Closing Date (such period, the "SALE EVENT PERIOD"), if

Event Proceeds, such amount, the "SALE EVENT AMOUNT"). It is expressly
understood that, if a definitive agreement in writing with a Third Party in

the LTBM Trustees in a single lump sum payment within 60 days of the closing of
the Sale Event.

Amount. Within 30 days of the date of the notice given by LTBM or the LTBM
Trustees, JHM or the JHM Trustees shall pay to LTBM or the LTBM Trustees the

                It is understood that if the Block Trade Conditions are not
satisfied during the Block Trade Period, then this Section 2.11(d) shall expire
and be null and void and of no further force or effect. For clarity and
avoidance of doubt, the obligations of JHM and/or the JHM Trustees to pay the
Block Trade Amount shall not be contingent on JHM or the JHM Trustees completing
any Block Trades.

                (e)     CONDITIONS TO AND TIMING OF PAYMENT OF THE FINAL AMOUNT.
If, on the date that is the tenth anniversary of the Closing Date, JHM or the

Unreimbursed Amount or any part of it remains due and payable, JHM will pay such
amount to the Company or the applicable subsidiary in full satisfaction of the
claim against LTBM.

reason be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, such
invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provisions
of this Section, but this Section shall be construed as if such invalid, illegal
or unenforceable provision had never been contained herein. It is the intention
of the parties that if any of the restrictions or covenants contained herein is
held to cover a geographic area or to be for a length of time which is not
permitted by applicable law, or in any way construed to be too broad or to any

effect, but to the extent such provision would be valid or enforceable under
applicable law, a court of competent jurisdiction shall construe and interpret
or reform this Section to provide for a covenant having the maximum enforceable
geographic area, time period and other provisions (not greater than those
contained herein) as shall be valid and enforceable under such applicable law.
LTBM and the LTBM Trustees acknowledge that the Company would be irreparably
harmed by any breach of this Section and that there would be no adequate remedy
at law or in damages to compensate the Company for any such breach. LTBM and the
LTBM Trustees agree that the Company shall be entitled to injunctive relief
requiring specific performance by LTBM and the LTBM Trustees of this Section,

interests in any blind pool, investment fund or other pass-through investment
vehicle managed by a third party without investment-making decisions on the part
of LTBM or the LTBM Trustees shall not be deemed to violate the prohibitions of
this Section 5.03.

                (d)     The provisions of this Article 5.03 are being entered
into for the benefit of the Company, JHM and the JHM Trustees, and may not be

Trustees agree to execute and deliver such other documents, certificates,
agreements and other writings, to execute and deliver all necessary
Authorizations and to take such other actions as may be necessary or desirable,
including without limitation, granting any necessary waivers or consents under

his best efforts to cause the Company not to issue a press release, without
LTBM's consent that (a) comments on or otherwise characterizes LTBM's reasons

of describing the Transactions in a strictly factual way.

RELEASED MATTERS AND THE FINAL RESOLUTION BY THE PARTIES HERETO OF ALL JHM
RELEASED MATTERS.

        6.04.   ORDERLY SALE OF LTBM RELEASED SHARES. Subject to the terms and
conditions of this Agreement, applicable securities law, any applicable lock-up
agreement and any applicable Company policy, when reasonably requested by LTBM
or the LTBM Trustees to do so, JHM will, solely in order to effect an orderly
sale of the LTBM Released Shares, use commercially reasonable efforts to cause
members of management of the Company designated by LTBM to (i) assist stock
brokers hired by LTBM or the LTBM Trustees to effect such orderly sale and (ii)
meet with potential buyers of the LTBM Released Shares upon reasonable notice
and at reasonable times.

        6.05.   ISSUANCE OF LTBM STOCK OPTION SHARES. Subject to the terms and
conditions of this Agreement, applicable securities law and any applicable
Company policy including the Company's blackout policy, when reasonably
requested by LTBM or the LTBM Trustees to do so, JHM will use his best efforts
to cause the Company to issue the LTBM Stock Option Shares upon the exercise of
the LTBM Stock Option by Spark Profit.

        6.06.   ACCESS TO MANAGEMENT. Subject to the terms and conditions of
this Agreement, applicable securities law and any applicable Company policy
including the Company's blackout policy, LTBM (on behalf of the LTBM Trustees)
shall during the Option Term only, be entitled to require the following once per
fiscal quarter:

                (a)     a meeting at a mutually convenient time and place
                        between LTBM (on behalf of the LTBM Trustees) and
                        operating and financial management of the Company during
                        the sixth or seventh week after the end of each fiscal
                        quarter of the Company, PROVIDED THAT: (i) LTBM shall
                        have provided notice to the Company of her requested
                        date for such meeting at least fourteen (14) days prior
                        to the date of such meeting, (ii) LTBM shall have
                        identified in such notice the members of management of
                        the Company with whom she would like to meet (including
                        JHM, if desired) and (iii) such members of management
                        have not committed to be away on business or vacation on
                        the proposed meeting date prior to the receipt of the
                        notice referred to in clause (i);

                (b)     JHM shall use his best efforts to cause the Company's
                        operating and financial management to attend such
                        meeting; and

                (c)     JHM shall attend the meeting referenced in (a)
                        personally if requested by LTBM to do so in the notice
                        referenced in (a) above, but shall otherwise not attend
                        such meeting.

        If LTBM requests non-public information at any such meeting, LTBM shall
sign a confidentiality agreement in customary form. LTBM acknowledges that
securities laws in the

                                       43
<Page>

United States and other countries prohibit the Company securities while in
possession of material non-public information.

        6.07.   SHAREHOLDERS' AGREEMENT WITH NEW THIRD PARTY HOLDER;
SHAREHOLDERS' AGREEMENT STILL IN EFFECT. If the JHM Option has expired
unexercised, from and after expiration of the Option Term until LTBM and the
LTBM Trustees own less than 10,000,000 Shares of the Company, if (a) LTBM and
the LTBM Trustees desire to sell all of the remaining Shares of the Company that
they own, directly or indirectly, to a single Third Party buyer (such Third
Party buyer, a "THIRD PARTY TRANSFEREE"), (b) JHM or the JHM Trustees do not
exercise their rights of first refusal under Section 2.06(f) or exercise their
tag-along rights under Section 2.06(g), and (c) the Shareholders' Agreement
remains in full force and effect in substantially the form it was in on the
Closing Date, then JHM and the JHM Trustees will agree to enter into a
shareholders agreement with the Third Party Transferee which shall contain the
following terms and conditions:

                (i)     the Third Party Transferee will have the rights and
                        obligations that Wendel has under Article 4 of the
                        Shareholders' Agreement; and

                (ii)    JHM and the JHM Trustees will have the rights that the
                        Floscule Group has under the Shareholders' Agreement
                        including all of the rights of the Majority Holder
                        thereunder (which shall include the right to appoint a
                        majority of the members of the Supervisory Board).

        In addition, if the Third Party Transferee acquires more than 10,000,000
Shares of the Company from LTBM or the LTBM Trustees then JHM agrees to use his
best efforts to cause the Company and Wendel (by amendment to the Shareholders
Agreement or otherwise) to allow the Third Party Transferee to:

                (i)     attend quarterly meetings with management of the Company
                        provided that if the Third Party Transferee requests
                        non-public information concerning the Company, the Third
                        Party Transferee must agree to sign a confidentiality
                        agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory
                        to the Company;

                (ii)    attend meetings of the Supervisory Board as an observer
                        with no voting rights, or allow a nominee to attend
                        meetings of the Supervisory Board as an observer with no
                        voting rights, provided that the Third Party Transferee
                        or his or her nominee, signs a confidentiality agreement
                        in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the
                        Company and agrees that the Third Party Transferee, or
                        his or her nominee, may be excluded from any meeting of
                        the Supervisory Board if the Supervisory Board believes
                        after consultation with independent counsel that such
                        exclusion is necessary to preserve attorney client
                        privilege or protect sensitive information of the
                        Company; and

                                       44
<Page>

                (iii)   nominate for election one of the two independent members
                        of the Supervisory Board, provided that the nominee of
                        the Third Party Transferee satisfies all applicable
                        legal and regulatory requirements for independence,
                        including the rules of any stock exchange or quotation
                        system applicable to the Company.

        In addition, if the Third Party Transferee acquires more than 15,000,000
Shares of the Company from LTBM or the LTBM Trustees then JHM agrees to use his
best efforts to cause the Company and Wendel (by amendment to the Shareholders
Agreement or otherwise) to allow the Third Party Transferee to, in addition to
all of the rights set forth above, to have an additional nominee attend the
meetings of the Supervisory Board as an observer with no voting rights, provided
that the nominee signs a confidentiality agreement in form and substance
reasonably satisfactory to the Company and agrees that the nominee may be
excluded from any meeting of the Supervisory Board if the Supervisory Board
believes after consultation with independent counsel that such exclusion is
necessary to preserve attorney client privilege or protect sensitive information
of the Company.

        It is understood and agreed that no Third Party Transferee shall be
entitled, by contract, as a matter of law or otherwise, to any multiple vote
shares of the Company.

        6.08.   SHAREHOLDERS' AGREEMENT WITH NEW THIRD PARTY HOLDER;
SHAREHOLDERS' AGREEMENT NO LONGER IN EFFECT. If the JHM Option has expired, from
and after expiration of the Option Term until LTBM and the LTBM Trustees own
less than 10,000,000 Shares of the Company, if (a) LTBM and the LTBM Trustees
desire to sell all of the remaining Shares of the Company that they own,
directly or indirectly, to a Third Party Transferee, (b) JHM or the JHM Trustees
do not exercise their rights of first refusal under Section 2.06(f) or exercise
their tag-along rights under Section 2.06(g) and (c) the Shareholders' Agreement
is no longer in effect in substantially the form it was in on the Closing Date,
then JHM and the JHM Trustees will agree to enter into a shareholders agreement
with the Third Party Transferee which shall contain the following terms and
conditions:

                (i)     the Third Party Transferee will have substantially all
                        of the rights and obligations that Wendel has under the
                        Shareholders' Agreement; and

                (ii)    JHM and the JHM Trustees will have the rights that the
                        Floscule Group has under the Shareholders' Agreement
                        including all of the rights of the Majority Holder
                        thereunder (which shall include the right to appoint a
                        majority of the members of the Supervisory Board).

        It is understood and agreed that no Third Party Transferee shall be
entitled, by contract, as a matter of law or otherwise, to any multiple vote
shares of the Company.

        6.09.   ROAD SHOW FOR SALE OF LTBM SHARES. Subject to the terms and
conditions of this Agreement, applicable securities law and any applicable
Company policy including the Company's blackout policy, if the JHM Option has
expired unexercised, when reasonably requested by LTBM or the LTBM Trustees to
do so, because it is in the Company's best interests to have any such sale be
conducted in an organized manner, JHM will use his best efforts to cause the
Company to prepare and conduct a roadshow for the purpose of soliciting interest
in connection with any sale by LTBM or the LTBM Trustees of not less than
5,000,000 Shares of the Company.

        6.10.   LTBM CONSENT TO GOING PRIVATE TRANSACTION; CONSIDERATION
PAYABLE. During the Option Term, if JHM and the JHM Trustees, either alone or
together with Wendel, desire to enter into a Going Private Transaction, then,
prior to the closing of any such Going Private Transaction, JHM and the JHM
Trustees shall be required to obtain the consent of LTBM to such Going Private
Transaction. If LTBM consents and such Going Private Transaction closes during
the Option Term, unless the LTBM Trustees otherwise consent, the LTBM Trustees
shall be entitled to receive the same consideration as may be payable to holders
of Shares that are not Affiliates of JHM, Wendel or the Company.

        6.11.   JHM SEPARATION TRANSACTIONS RESERVE.  JHM shall cause an amount
equal to the JHM Separation Transactions Reserve to be paid to Floscule on the
date the LTBM Separation Transactions Reserve is paid to Floscule.

                            COVENANTS OF ALL PARTIES

        6A.01.  CERTAIN MATTERS RELATING TO THE SEPARATION TRANSACTIONS.

                (a)     If after the Closing Date any Disappearing Companies
Liabilities remain unpaid and the creditor thereof demands payment prior to the
Separation Date, LTBM and the LTBM Trustees will promptly pay to the relevant
Disappearing Company an amount equal to 48.5% of such liabilities and JHM and
the JHM Trustees will (i) promptly pay to such Disappearing Company an amount
equal to 48.5% of such liabilities and (ii) procure that Eric Teyssonniere de
Gramont promptly pays to such Disappearing Company an amount equal to 3% of such
liabilities. If after the Closing Date, any Disappearing Companies Liabilities
remain unpaid and the creditor thereof does not demand payment prior to the
Separation Date, such Disappearing Companies Liabilities will be extinguished to
the extent possible in connection with the Separation Transactions. If,
notwithstanding such extinguishment, any creditor of a Disappearing Company
Liability demands payment after the Separation Date, LTBM or the LTBM Trustee
will promptly pay such creditor 48.5% of such liability and JHM or the JHM
Trustee will (i) promptly pay such creditor 48.5% of such liability and (ii)
procure that Eric Teyssonniere de Gramont promptly pay such creditor 3% of such
liability. Each party (the "Defaulting Party") agrees to reimburse any other
party (the "Payor") for such Defaulting Party's

                                       46
<Page>

portion of any Disappearing Companies Liabilities paid by the Payor if (i) the
creditor thereof demanded such payment and (ii) as a matter of applicable law,
the Payor was liable to such creditor notwithstanding this Agreement allocating
Disappearing Companies Liabilities between the Defaulting Party and the Payor.
Notwithstanding the foregoing in this Section 6A.01(a), neither LTBM nor the
LTBM Trustees shall be liable in aggregate in excess of EURO 50,000 for
Disappearing Companies Liabilities representing the fees and expenses of TMF
(and JHM or the JHM Trustees shall be liable for any excess).

                Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, to the extent
that LTBM or the LTBM Trustees have not paid by January 31, 2003 their 48.5%
share of any Disappearing Company Liability due and payable pursuant to this
Section 6A.01(a), and JHM or the JHM Trustees (together with Mr Teyssonniere)
have paid or caused to be paid their 51.5% share of such liability, then
Floscule shall promptly deposit with the Escrow Agent the number of LTBM
Released Shares (or, if all such shares have been sold, the number of LTBM
Option Shares) which, when valued at EURO 7.80 per share, would be sufficient to
pay such 48.5% share of such Disappearing Company Liability and the applicable
sales commission, and the Escrow Agent shall promptly sell such shares and pay
the net proceeds thereof to the creditor to which such Disappearing Company
Liability is due and payable.

                (b)     The JHM Trustees and the LTBM Trustees will procure that
Beachcave will in connection with the demerger of Floscule waive the
applicability of Article 334j, paragraph 1, of the Dutch Civil Code insofar as
the Beachcave Receivables are concerned.

                (c)     JHM, the JHM Trustees, LTBM and the LTBM Trustees will
procure that none of the Disappearing Companies, or any Affiliate of JHM or
LTBM, brings any action in the Dutch courts relating to the demerger of Floscule
on the basis of Article 3341 of Book 2 of the Dutch Civil Code.

                (d)     LTBM and the LTBM Trustees on behalf of themselves and
their Affiliates hereby waive applicability of Article 334c, paragraph 2, of
Book 2 of the Dutch Civil Code insofar as the assets of Floscule are concerned
and agree that all of the assets of Floscule other than those specifically
listed in Section 2.01(a)(i) will be allocated to the JHM Trustees and Eric
Teyssonniere de Gramont (or a special purpose company controlled by them) in
such proportions as the JHM Trustees and Eric Teyssonniere de Gramont shall
agree.

                (e)     LTBM and the LTBM Trustees will procure that the holder
of the LTBM Beachcave Receivables will not at any time assert any claim against
the company identified as "Floscule I" on Exhibit A on the basis of Article 334t
of Book 2 of the Dutch Civil Code.

                (f)     LTBM, the LTBM Trustees, JHM and the JHM Trustees
covenant and agree that they will procure such actions, waivers or consents as
may be necessary or desirable in the British Virgin Islands, Luxembourg or the
Netherlands Antilles in order to give effect to the Separation Transactions.

        6A.02.  ESCROW AGREEMENT. On or prior to November 29, 2002, the parties
agree to enter into a mutually satisfactory escrow agreement with JP Morgan or
another mutually acceptable escrow agent of comparable stature for the purpose
of depositing the Price Shortfall Protection Shares to be held by the escrow
agent for the purposes described in Section 2.06(b)(ii).

                                   ARTICLE VII

                            SURVIVAL; INDEMNIFICATION

        7.01.   SURVIVAL. The covenants and agreements of the parties hereto
contained in this Agreement or in any certificate or other writing delivered
pursuant hereto or in connection herewith shall survive the Closing until the
expiration of the applicable statutory period of limitations, except for Section
5.03, which will survive for three years. The representations and warranties of
the parties contained in this Agreement or in any certificate or other writing
delivered pursuant hereto or in connection herewith shall survive the Closing
until October 31, 2003, provided that the representations and warranties
contained in Sections 3.09 and 3.10 shall survive until the expiration of the
applicable statutory period of limitations. Notwithstanding the preceding
sentence, any covenant, agreement, representation or warranty in respect of
which indemnity may be sought under Section 7.02 shall survive the time at which
it would otherwise terminate pursuant to the preceding sentence, if notice of
the inaccuracy or breach thereof giving rise to such right to indemnity shall
have been given to the party against whom such indemnity may be sought prior to
such time.

        7.02.   INDEMNIFICATION. (a) LTBM, jointly and severally with the LTBM
Trustees, and the LTBM Trustees, severally but not jointly with LTBM, indemnify
JHM and the JHM Trustees against and agree to hold each of them harmless from
any and all damage, claims, demands, loss, liability and expense (including
without limitation reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses in connection with
any action, suit or proceeding) ("DAMAGES") incurred or suffered by either of
them arising out of any misrepresentation or breach of warranty, covenant or
agreement made or to be performed by LTBM or the LTBM Trustees pursuant to this
Agreement.

                (b)     JHM, jointly and severally with the JHM Trustees, and
the JHM Trustees, severally but not jointly with JHM, indemnify LTBM and the
LTBM Trustees against and agree to hold each of them harmless from any and all
Damages incurred or suffered by either of them arising out of any
misrepresentation or breach of warranty, covenant or agreement made or to be
performed by JHM or the JHM Trustees pursuant to this Agreement.

                (c)     The term "DAMAGES" as used in Section 7.02 is not
limited to matters asserted by third parties, but includes Damages incurred or
sustained by a party in the absence of third party claims.

                                       48
<Page>

                (d)     Except as set forth below, the maximum amount of Damages
for which any party hereto shall have any liability to the other parties
hereunder shall not exceed EURO 8,000,000 for misrepresentation or breach of any
representation and warranty (except Sections 3.01, 3.09, 4.01 and 4.08). Except
as set forth below, the maximum amount of Damages for which any party hereto
shall have liability to the other parties hereunder shall not exceed the
aggregate fair market value of the LTBM Option Shares or the JHM Option Shares,
as the case may be, on the date of breach for breach of any covenant or
agreement or for misrepresentation or breach of warranty of Sections 3.01, 3.09,
4.01 and 4.08. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the maximum amount of Damages for
which the JHM Trustees shall be liable to LTBM and the LTBM Trustees hereunder
and the maximum amount of Damages for which the LTBM Trustees shall be liable to
JHM and the JHM Trustees hereunder shall in each case be limited to the lesser
of (a) the limits set forth above and (b) the amount of funds or other property
from time to time the subject of the JHM Trust or the LTBM Trust, as applicable.
Accordingly, it is understood and agreed that for Damages incurred hereunder, no
recourse shall be had and no judgment shall be issued, or execution or other
process levied against any other property of either the JHM Trustees or the LTBM
Trustees held in their respective capacity as trustee under trust instruments
for other Persons or held in their respective personal capacity.

                (e)     The parties agree to first seek equitable remedies
"reele nakoming", including an injunction or specific performance, pursuant to
Section 10.12 for a breach or threatened breach of the provisions of Section
2.02 or Section 2.04, if applicable, before seeking money damages under this
Section 7.02.

        7.03.   PROCEDURES; EXCLUSIVITY. (a) The party seeking indemnification
under Section 7.02 (the "INDEMNIFIED PARTY") agrees to give prompt notice to the
party against whom indemnity is sought (the "INDEMNIFYING PARTY") of the
assertion of any claim, or the commencement of any suit, action or proceeding in
respect of which indemnity may be sought under such Section. The Indemnifying
Party may, and at the request of the Indemnified Party shall, participate in and
control the defense of any third party suit, action or proceeding at its own
expense. If the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of any third party suit,
action or proceeding, the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any fees or
expenses of separate attorneys for the Indemnified Party from and after the date
of such assumption. The Indemnifying Party shall not be liable under Section
7.02 for any settlement effected without its consent of any claim, litigation or
proceeding in respect of which indemnity may be sought hereunder.

                (b)     After the Closing, except as provided in Section 5.03
hereof, Section 7.02 will provide the exclusive remedy for any
misrepresentation, breach of warranty, covenant or other agreement or other
claim arising out of this Agreement or the Transactions.

        10.11.  OBLIGATIONS. The parties hereto understand and agree that all of
the obligations of JHM herein are obligations undertaken by him as an indirect
shareholder of the Company, and shall in no way be construed as obligations of
JHM in his capacity as an officer of the Company or as a member of the Company's
Management Board. In addition, the parties understand and agree that each of the
LTBM Trustees and the JHM Trustees has entered into this Agreement solely in its
capacity as trustee of the respective trusts of which they are trustees and the
obligations of the trustees hereunder are subject to the provisions of such
trusts. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or the Legally
Binding Letter Agreement, any and all liabilities of the trustees created by
this Agreement or the Legally Binding Letter Agreement shall be limited to the
extent such liability can be met from and out of the funds or other property
from time to time subject to the trusts of the respective trusts and,
accordingly, the obligations of, and rights against, the Trustees under this
Agreement or the Legally Binding Letter Agreement and any and all liability of
the Trustees that may otherwise arise in connection with this Agreement or the
Legally Binding Letter Agreement and the matters contained in this Agreement or
the Legally Binding Letter Agreement shall be performed, satisfied and paid only
out of, and enforced only against and recourse under this Agreement or the
Legally Binding Letter Agreement shall be had only against, the funds and or
other property from time to time subject to the trusts contained in the
respective trust deeds.

        10.12.  REMEDIES FOR BREACH: SPECIFIC PERFORMANCE. Each of LTBM, the
LTBM Trustees, JHM and the JHM Trustees understands and agrees that money
damages would not be a sufficient remedy for any breach of this Agreement by any
of them (including without limitation, Section 2.02 and 2.04 hereof) and that
each of them shall be entitled to equitable relief, including injunction and
specific performance, as a remedy for any such breach. Such remedies shall not
be deemed to be the exclusive remedies for a breach of this Agreement but shall
be in addition to all other remedies available at law or equity.
