                              CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

         Section 2.01. Composition of the Board. (a) The Board shall consist of
nine directors, of whom three directors will be designated by FP (one of whom
shall be an independent director designated by FP), three directors will be
designated by the CVC Entities (one of whom shall be an independent director
designated by the CVC Entities), one director will be designated by Japan
Energy, one director will be the chief executive officer of the Company for so
long as he or she is employed by the Company and one independent director will
be designated by the Chief Executive Officer and the Institutional Shareholders,
provided that such independent director collectively designated by the Chief
Executive Officer and the Institutional Shareholders, (i) shall not be either an
"Affiliate" or an "Associate" (as such terms are used within the meaning of Rule
12b-2 under the Exchange Act) of the Institutional Shareholders or Japan Energy
and (ii) shall be an "independent director" (as such term is defined by the
rules of the securities exchange or quotation system on which the Common Stock
is traded). If the number of directors that comprise the entire Board is
increased in accordance with Section 2.04, the number of directors added to the
Board (the "ADDITIONAL DIRECTORS") must be a multiple of two, and for every two
Additional Directors, FP shall be permitted to designate one such Additional
Director and the CVC Entities shall be permitted to designate one such
Additional Director.

         (b)      Each Shareholder entitled to vote for the election of
directors to the Board agrees that it will vote its Shares or execute written
consents, as the case may be, and take all other necessary action (including
causing the Company to call a special meeting of Shareholders) in order to
ensure that the composition of the Board is as set forth in this Section 2.01.

         (c)      The right of each Institutional Shareholder to designate three
or more members of the Board pursuant to this Article 2 shall (i) be reduced to
the right to designate only one member of the Board at such time as the
Aggregate Ownership of Common Shares by such Institutional Shareholder divided
by the Aggregate Ownership of such Common Shares by all Shareholders is less
than 10% and (ii) terminate at such time as the Aggregate Ownership of Common
Shares by such Institutional Shareholder divided by the Aggregate Ownership of
such Common Shares by all Shareholders is less than 5%. The right of Japan
Energy to designate one member of the Board, shall terminate at such time as the
Aggregate Ownership of Common Shares by Japan Energy and its Permitted
Transferees falls below 50% of Japan Energy's Initial Ownership of Common
Shares. The obligations imposed on the Shareholders to give effect to the rights
to designate directors set forth in Section 2.01 shall terminate as to any
Person when such Person's right to designate a director is terminated.

                                       11

<PAGE>

         (d)      The Company agrees to cause each individual designated
pursuant to Section 2.01(a) or 2.03 to be nominated to serve as a director on
the Board, and to take all other necessary actions (including calling a special
meeting of the Board and/or shareholders) to ensure that the composition of the
Board is as set forth in this Section 2.01.

         Section 2.02. Removal. Each Shareholder agrees that if, at any time, it
is then entitled to vote for the removal of directors of the Company, it will
not vote any of its Common Shares in favor of the removal of any director who
shall have been designated or nominated in accordance with Section 2.01, unless
such removal shall be for Cause or the Person or Persons entitled to designate
or nominate such director shall have consented to such removal in writing,
provided that if the Person or Persons entitled to designate or nominate any
director pursuant to Section 2.01 shall request in writing the removal, with or
without Cause, of such director, such Shareholder shall vote its Common Shares
in favor of such removal. Removal for "CAUSE" shall mean removal of a director
because of such director's (a) willful and continued failure substantially to
perform his or her statutory or fiduciary duties with the Company in his or her
established position, (b) participation in a fraud, act of dishonesty or other
misconduct that is injurious, monetarily or otherwise, to the Company or any of
its Subsidiaries, (c) being charged with or pleading guilty to a felony or a
crime involving fraud or dishonesty, (d) violation of any state or federal law
that has an adverse effect on the Company or (e) abuse of illegal drugs or other
controlled substances or habitual intoxication.

         Section 2.03. Vacancies. If, as a result of death, disability,
retirement, resignation, removal (with or without Cause) or otherwise, there
shall exist or occur any vacancy on the Board:

         (a)      the Person or Persons entitled under Section 2.01 to designate
or nominate such director whose death, disability, retirement, resignation or
removal resulted in such vacancy may, subject to the provisions of Section 2.01,
designate another individual (the "REPLACEMENT NOMINEE") to fill such vacancy
and serve as a director of the Company; and

         (b)      subject to Section 2.01, each Shareholder then entitled to
vote for the election of the Replacement Nominee as a director of the Company
agrees that it will vote its Common Shares, or execute a proxy or written
consent, as the case may be, in order to ensure that the Replacement Nominee be
elected to the Board.

         Section 2.04. Action by the Board. (a) A quorum of the Board shall
consist of a majority of the total number of directors, which such majority
shall include at least one of the two non-independent designees of FP appointed
pursuant to Section 2.01(a) and at least one of the two non-independent
designees of the CVC Entities appointed pursuant to Section 2.01(a), provided
that the

                                       12

<PAGE>

Institutional Shareholders together shall have the right at any time to increase
the number of directors necessary to constitute such quorum.

         (b)      All actions of the Board shall require (i) the affirmative
vote of at least a majority of the directors present at a duly convened meeting
of the Board at which a quorum is present or (ii) the unanimous written consent
of the Board, provided that, in the event that there is a vacancy on the Board
and an individual has been nominated to fill such vacancy, the first order of
business shall be to fill such vacancy.

         (c)      The Board may create executive, compensation, audit,
nominating and corporate governance and such other committees as it may
determine. The Institutional Shareholders together shall be entitled to majority
representation on any committee created by the Board, half of which such
majority representation shall consist of any director or directors designated by
FP to serve on such committee and half of which such majority representation
shall consist of any director or directors designated by the CVC Entities to
serve on such committee, provided that if rules or regulations of the SEC or the
securities exchange or quotation system on which the Common Stock is traded
require any committee to consist of one or more "independent directors" (as such
term is defined by the rules of the securities exchange or quotation system on
which the Common Stock is traded), the directors designated to serve on such
committee by FP or the CVC Entities shall be "independent directors" to the
extent required to meet such applicable rules or regulations.

         (d)      No action by the Company (including but not limited to any
action by the Board or any committee thereof) shall be taken after the date
hereof with respect to any of the following matters without the affirmative
approval of the Board, including the affirmative approval of at least one of the
two non-independent designees of FP appointed pursuant to Section 2.01(a) and at
least one of the two non-independent designees of the CVC Entities appointed
pursuant to Section 2.01(a):

                  (i)      (1) any merger or consolidation of the Company with
         or into any Person, other than a wholly owned Subsidiary, or of any
         Subsidiary with or into any Person other than the Company or any other
         wholly owned Subsidiary, or (2) any sale of the Company or any
         Subsidiary or any significant operations of the Company or any
         Subsidiary or any joint venture transaction, acquisition or disposition
         of assets, business, operations or securities by the Company or any
         Subsidiary (in a single transaction or a series of related
         transactions) having a value in each case in this clause (2) in excess
         of $10,000,000;

                  (ii)     the declaration of any dividend on or the making of

         Company or any Subsidiary, except as expressly permitted by this

         bankruptcy, liquidation or similar proceedings with respect to the
         Company or any Subsidiary;

                  (iv)     any incurrence, refinancing, alteration of material

         the issuance of any security by the Company or any Subsidiary (not
         including issuances of such securities in connection with employee or
         stock option plans previously approved by the Board), in each case
         other than (1) pursuant to the Credit Agreement, dated December 21,

in respect of any Transfer of any Company Securities), except in compliance with
the Securities Act, any applicable foreign or state securities or "blue sky"
laws, and the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

         (b)      Any attempt to Transfer any Company Securities not in
compliance with this Agreement shall be null and void and the Company shall not,
and shall cause any transfer agent not to, give any effect in the Company's

without the consent of the Board or any other Shareholder or group of
Shareholders and without compliance with Sections 3.04, 3.05, 4.01 and 4.02 so

         this Section 3.03(b)(ii), or

                  (iii)    from the second anniversary of this Agreement, any
         Distribution in Kind by a Distributing Institution so long as the
         Distributing Institution has given the other Institutional Shareholder
         seven Business Days prior notice of such Distribution in Kind, which
         notice shall include the timing of the Distribution in Kind and the
         number of each class of Company Securities subject to the Distribution
         in Kind.

         shall be permitted to Transfer any number of any class of Company
         Securities pursuant to this Section 3.04(a)(ii) if such Transfer would

         class immediately following such Transfer to fall below two-thirds of
         such Institutional Shareholder's Initial Ownership), or in a Transfer
         made after Section 4.01 is terminated in accordance with Section

         that, other than any Transfer to either Institutional Shareholder that
         both Institutional Shareholders have consented to in writing prior to
         such Transfer, no Other Shareholder shall be permitted to Transfer
         shares of any class of Company Securities pursuant to this Section
         3.05(a)(iii) if such Transfer would cause such Other Shareholder's
         Sell-down Percentage to fall below the greater of (A) two-thirds and
         (B) the Sell-down Percentage of FP or the CVC Entities (whichever is
         lower) immediately prior to such Transfer by such Other Shareholder),
         or in a Transfer made after Section 4.01 is terminated in accordance

                   (iv)    after December 21, 2003, in any Transfer made in
         compliance with Section 4.01 as a Tag-Along Seller (provided that,
         other than any Transfer to either Institutional Shareholder that both
         Institutional Shareholders have consented to in writing prior to such
         Transfer, no Other Shareholder shall be permitted to Transfer shares of
         any class of Company Securities pursuant to this Section 3.05(a)(iv) if
         such Transfer would cause such Other Shareholder's Sell-down Percentage
         to fall below the greater of (A) one-third and (B) the Sell-down
         Percentage of FP or the CVC Entities (whichever is lower) immediately

         Other Shareholder), or in a Transfer made after Section 4.01 is
         terminated in accordance with Section 4.01(i) thereof,

                    (v)    after December 21, 2004, in any Transfer made in
         compliance with Section 4.01 (provided that, other than any Transfer to
         either Institutional Shareholder that both Institutional Shareholders
         have consented to in writing prior to such Transfer, no Other
         Shareholder shall be permitted to Transfer shares of any class of
         Company Securities pursuant to this Section 3.05(a)(v) if such Transfer
         would cause such Other Shareholder's Sell-down Percentage to fall below
         the Sell-down Percentage of FP or the CVC Entities (whichever is lower)
         immediately prior to such Transfer by such Other Shareholder), or in a
         Transfer made after Section 4.01 is terminated in accordance with
         Section 4.01(i) thereof,

                   (vi)    in a Public Offering in connection with the exercise

         or

                  (vii)    in a Transfer made at the conclusion of the
         Applicable Holdback Period (as defined in Section 5.03) following the
         First Public Offering, in compliance with Rule 144 under the Securities
         Act.

         (b)      No Other Shareholder shall Transfer Company Securities to an

         Section 3.06. Restrictions on Transfer under a Credit Agreement,
Indenture or Other Agreement for Indebtedness. Notwithstanding the foregoing
provisions of this Article 3, if a Transfer otherwise permitted hereunder would
trigger, under the terms of any outstanding credit agreement, indenture or any

          TAG-ALONG RIGHTS; DRAG-ALONG RIGHTS; RIGHTS OF FIRST REFUSAL;
                               PREEMPTIVE RIGHTS

         Section 4.01. Rights to Participate in Transfer. (a) Subject to
Sections 3.03, 3.04, 3.05, 3.06 and 4.01(h), if any Shareholder or group of
Shareholders (such Shareholder or group of Shareholders, the "TAG-ALONG SELLER")
proposes to Transfer any number of Common Shares (a "TAG-ALONG SALE"), the
Shareholders other than the Tag-Along Seller (each, an "ELIGIBLE SHAREHOLDER")
may elect, at their option, to exercise their rights under this Section 4.01
(each such Shareholder, a "TAGGING PERSON").

         In the event of such a proposed Transfer, the Tag-Along Seller shall
provide each Eligible Shareholder written notice of the terms and conditions of
such proposed transfer ("TAG-ALONG NOTICE") and offer each Tagging Person the
opportunity to participate in such sale. The Tag-Along Notice shall identify the
number of Common Shares subject to the offer ("TAG-ALONG OFFER"), the cash price
at which the Transfer is proposed to be made, and all other material terms and
conditions of the Tag-Along Offer, including the form of the proposed agreement,
if any.

         From the date of the receipt of the Tag-Along Notice, each Tagging
Person shall have the right (a "TAG-ALONG RIGHT"), exercisable by written notice
("TAG-ALONG RESPONSE NOTICE") given to the Tag-Along Seller within seven
Business Days after its receipt of the Tag-Along Notice (the "TAG-ALONG NOTICE
PERIOD"), to request that the Tag-Along Seller include in the proposed Transfer
the number of Common Shares held by such Tagging Person as is specified in such
notice, provided that, if the aggregate number of Common Shares proposed to be
sold by the Tag-Along Seller and all Tagging Persons in such transaction exceeds
the number of Common Shares that can be sold on the terms and conditions set
forth in the Tag-Along Notice, then (i) each Tagging Person shall be entitled to
include in the Tag-Along Sale only its Tag-Along Portion of Common Shares and
(ii) the Tag-Along Seller shall be entitled to include the number of Common
Shares proposed to be Transferred by the Tag-Along Seller as set forth in the
Tag-Along Notice (reduced, to the extent necessary, so that each Tagging Person
shall be able to include its Tag-Along Portion) and such additional Common
Shares as permitted by Section 4.01(d). Each Tagging Person that exercises its
Tag-Along Rights hereunder shall deliver to the Tag-Along Seller, together with
its Tag-Along Response Notice, the certificate or certificates representing the
Common Shares of such Tagging Person to be included in the Transfer, together
with a limited power-of-attorney authorizing the Tag-Along Seller to Transfer
such Common Shares on the terms set forth in the Tag-Along Notice. Delivery of
such certificate or certificates representing the Common Shares to be
Transferred and the limited power-of-attorney authorizing the Tag-Along Seller
to Transfer such Common Shares shall constitute an

                                       20

<PAGE>

irrevocable acceptance of the Tag-Along Offer by such Tagging Persons. Each
Tag-Along Response Notice shall include wire transfer instructions for payment
of the purchase price for the Common Shares to be sold in such Tag-Along Sale.
The Tagging Persons shall (a) be required (i) to bear their proportionate share
of any escrows, holdbacks or adjustments in purchase price and any transaction
expenses and (ii) to make such representations, warranties and covenants and
enter into such agreements as are customary for transactions of the nature of
the Tag-Along Offer, in each case under the terms of any definitive agreement(s)
relating to such Tag-Along Offer and (b) benefit from all of the same provisions
of the definitive agreements as the Tag-Along Seller, it being understood that
any liability of any Tagging Person for indemnification or similar post-closing
obligations shall not exceed the consideration such Tagging Person receives in
the Tag-Along Sale and shall not exceed a proportional share of any such
liability based on such Tagging Person's share of the aggregate consideration in
the Tag-Along Sale.

         If, at the end of a 90-day period after such delivery (which 90-day
period shall be extended if any of the transactions contemplated by the
Tag-Along Offer are subject to regulatory approval until the expiration of five
Business Days after all such approvals have been received, but in no event later
than 180 days following receipt of the Tag-Along Response Notice by the
Tag-Along Seller), the Tag-Along Seller has not completed the Transfer of all
such Common Shares on substantially the same terms and conditions set forth in
the Tag-Along Notice, the Tag-Along Seller shall (i) return to each Tagging
Person the limited power-of-attorney (and all copies thereof) together with all
certificates representing the Common Shares that such Tagging Person delivered
for Transfer pursuant to this Section 4.01(a) and (ii) not conduct any Transfer
of Common Shares without again complying with this Section.

         (b)      Concurrently with the consummation of the Tag-Along Sale, the
Tag-Along Seller shall notify the Tagging Persons thereof, shall remit to the
Tagging Persons the total consideration (by bank or certified check) for the
Common Shares of the Tagging Persons transferred pursuant thereto, and shall,
promptly after the consummation of such Tag-Along Sale, furnish such other
evidence of the completion and time of completion of such transfer and the terms
thereof as may be reasonably requested by the Tagging Persons.

         (c)      If at the termination of the Tag-Along Notice Period any
Eligible Shareholder shall not have elected to participate in the Tag-Along
Sale, such Eligible Shareholder will be deemed to have waived its rights under
Section 4.01(a) with respect to the Transfer of its securities pursuant to such
Tag-Along Sale.

         (d)      If (i) any Eligible Shareholder declines to exercise its
Tag-Along Rights or (ii) any Tagging Person elects to exercise its Tag-Along
Rights with

                                       21

<PAGE>

respect to less than such Tagging Person's Tag-Along Portion, the Tag-Along
Seller shall be entitled to Transfer, pursuant to the Tag-Along Offer, a number
of Common Shares held by it equal to Unused Tag Amount (reduced to the extent
necessary so that each Tagging Person who has elected to exercise its Tag-Along
Rights for the full amount of its Tag-Along Portion shall be able to include its
Tag-Along Portion with respect to the Unused Tag Amount) and each Tagging Person
who has elected to exercise its Tag-Along Rights for the full amount of its
Tag-Along Portion shall be entitled to Transfer in the Tag-Along Sale its
Tag-Along Portion of the Unused Tag Amount. "UNUSED TAG AMOUNT" means the number
of Common Shares constituting the sum of (i) the Tag-Along Portion of any
Eligible Shareholder that declined to exercise its Tag-Along Rights and (ii) the
portion of the Tag-Along Portion with respect to which Tag-Along Rights were not
exercised by any Tagging Person that exercised its Tag-Along Rights with respect
to less than such Tag-Along Person's Tag-Along Portion.

         (e)      The Tag-Along Seller may Transfer, on behalf of itself and any
Tagging Person who exercises the Tag-Along Rights pursuant to this Section
4.01(a), the Common Shares subject to the Tag-Along Offer and elected to be
Transferred on the terms and conditions set forth in the Tag-Along Notice within
90 days (or such longer period as extended under Section 4.01(a)) of the date on
which all Tag-Along Rights shall have been waived, exercised or expire; provided
that, if such Tag-Along Sale is subject to regulatory approval, such 90 day
period shall be extended until the expiration of five Business Days after all
such approvals have been received, but in no event later than 180 days following
the effective date of the Tag-Along Sale Notice.

         (f)      Notwithstanding the requirements of this Section 4.01, a
Tag-Along Seller may Transfer Common Shares at any time without complying with
the requirements of paragraphs (a) and (b) of Section 4.01 so long as such
Transfer is solely for cash and the Tag-Along Seller deposits into escrow with
an independent third party at the time of Transfer that amount of the
consideration received in the sale equal to the Escrow Amount. The "ESCROW
AMOUNT" shall equal that amount of consideration that all the Eligible
Shareholders would have been entitled to receive if each of the Eligible
Shareholders had the opportunity to participate in the Transfer as a Tagging
Person to the extent of its Tag-Along Portion, determined as if each such
Eligible Shareholder (i) delivered a Tag-Along Response Notice to the Tag-Along
Seller in the time period set forth in Section 4.01(a) and (ii) proposed to
include all of its Common Shares which it would have been entitled to include in
the Transfer.

         No later than the date of the Transfer, the Tag-Along Seller shall
notify the Company in writing of the proposed Transfer. Such notice (the "ESCROW
NOTICE") shall set forth the information required in the Tag-Along Notice, and
in addition, such notice shall state the name of the escrow agent and the
account number of the escrow account. The Company shall promptly, and in any
event

                                       22

<PAGE>

within 10 days, deliver or cause to be delivered the Escrow Notice to each
Eligible Shareholder.

         An Eligible Shareholder may exercise the tag-along right described in
this clause (f) by delivery to the Tag-Along Seller, within seven Business Days
of the date after the Company delivered or caused to be delivered the Escrow
Notice, of (i) a written notice specifying the number of Common Shares it
proposes to sell (which such number shall not exceed such Eligible Shareholder's
Tag-Along Portion), and (ii) the certificates representing such securities, with
transfer powers duly endorsed in blank.

         Promptly after the expiration of the seventh Business Day after the
Company has delivered or caused to be delivered the Escrow Notice, (i) the
Tag-Along Seller shall purchase that number of Common Shares as the Tag-Along
Seller would have been required to include in the sale had the Tag-Along Seller
complied with the provisions of Section 4.01(a), (ii) the Company shall cause to
be released from the escrow to the Eligible Shareholder from whom the Tag-Along
Seller purchases Common Shares pursuant to clause (i) of this paragraph the
applicable amount of consideration due to such Eligible Shareholder together
with any interest thereon, and (iii) all remaining funds and other consideration
held in escrow shall be released to the Tag-Along Seller.

         (g)      Notwithstanding anything contained in this Section 4.01, there
shall be no liability on the part of the Tag-Along Seller to the Tagging Persons
(other than the obligation to return any certificates evidencing Common Shares
received by the Tag-Along Seller) if the Transfer of Common Shares pursuant to
this Section 4.01 is not consummated for whatever reason. Whether to effect a
Transfer of Common Shares pursuant to this Section 4.01 by the Tag-Along Seller
is in the sole and absolute discretion of the Tag-Along Seller.

         (h)      The provisions of this Section 4.01 shall not apply to any
proposed Transfer of Common Shares by the Tag-Along Seller (A) in a Public
Offering or pursuant to Rule 144 or (B) pursuant to Section 3.03 or 4.02.

         (i)      This Section 4.01 shall terminate upon the date on which the
Aggregate Ownership of Common Shares by the Institutional Shareholders together
falls below 35% of the aggregate Initial Ownership of such Institutional
Shareholders.

         Section 4.02. Right to Compel Participation in Certain Transfers. (a)
If the Institutional Shareholders together propose (i) to Transfer not less than
50% of their Initial Ownership of Common Shares to a Third Party in a bona fide
sale or (ii) a Transfer in which the Common Shares to be Transferred by the
Institutional Shareholders together, plus the Common Shares to be Transferred by
the Other Shareholders pursuant to this Section 4.02(a), constitute more than
50% of the

                                       23

<PAGE>

outstanding Common Shares (a "COMPELLED SALE"), the Institutional Shareholders
together may at their option require all Other Shareholders to Transfer the
Drag-Along Portion of Common Shares ("DRAG-ALONG RIGHTS") then held by every
Other Shareholder and, at the closing of the Compelled Sale, to exercise such
number of options or Warrants for Common Shares held by every Other Shareholder
as is required in order that a sufficient number of Common Shares are available
to Transfer the relevant Drag-Along Portion of each such Other Shareholder, for
the same consideration per Common Share and otherwise on the same terms and
conditions as the Institutional Shareholders, provided that any Other
Shareholder who holds options or Warrants the exercise price per share of which
is greater than the per share price at which the Common Shares are to be
Transferred to the Third Party may, if required by the Institutional
Shareholders to exercise such options, in place of such exercise, submit to
irrevocable cancellation thereof without any liability for payment of any
exercise price with respect thereto. If the Compelled Sale is not consummated
with respect to any Common Shares acquired upon exercise of such options or
Warrants, or the Compelled Sale is not consummated, such options or Warrants
shall be deemed not to have been exercised or canceled, as applicable. The
Institutional Shareholders shall provide written notice of such Compelled Sale
to the Other Shareholders (a "COMPELLED SALE NOTICE") not later than the 15th
day prior to the proposed Compelled Sale. The Compelled Sale Notice shall
identify the transferee, the number of Common Shares subject to the Compelled
Sale, the consideration for which a Transfer is proposed to be made (the
"COMPELLED SALE PRICE") and all other material terms and conditions of the
Compelled Sale. The number of Common Shares to be sold by each Other Shareholder
will be the Drag-Along Portion of the Common Shares that such Other Shareholder
owns. Each Other Shareholder shall be required to participate in the Compelled
Sale on the terms and conditions set forth in the Compelled Sale Notice and to
tender its Common Shares as set forth below. The price payable in such Transfer
shall be the Compelled Sale Price. Not later than the 10th day following the
date of the Compelled Sale Notice (the "COMPELLED SALE NOTICE PERIOD"), each of
the Other Shareholders shall deliver to a representative of the Institutional
Shareholders designated in the Compelled Sale Notice certificates, and in the
case of Warrants, the applicable instrument, representing all Company Securities
comprising the Drag-Along Portion held by such Other Shareholder, duly endorsed,
together with all other documents required to be executed in connection with
such Compelled Sale or, if such delivery is not permitted by applicable law, an
unconditional agreement to deliver such Company Securities pursuant to this
Section 4.02(a) at the closing for such Compelled Sale against delivery to such
Other Shareholder of the consideration therefor. If an Other Shareholder should
fail to deliver such certificates or other applicable instruments to the
Institutional Shareholders, the Company (subject to reversal under Section
4.02(b)) shall cause the books and records of the Company to show that such
Company Securities are bound by the provisions of this Section 4.02(a) and that
such Company Securities shall be Transferred to the Third Party immediately upon
surrender for Transfer by the holder thereof. The Other

                                       24
<PAGE>

Shareholders shall (a) be required (i) to bear their proportionate share of any
escrows, holdbacks or adjustments in purchase price and any transaction expenses
and (ii) to make such representations, warranties and covenants and enter into
such agreements as are customary for transactions of the nature of the Compelled
Sale, in each case under the terms of any definitive agreements relating to such
Compelled Sale and (b) benefit from all of the same provisions of the definitive
agreements as the Institutional Shareholders, it being understood that any
liability of any Other Shareholder for indemnification or similar post-closing
obligations shall not exceed the consideration such Other Shareholder receives
in the Compelled Sale and shall be a proportional share of any such liability
based on such Other Shareholder's share of the aggregate consideration in the
Compelled Sale.

         (b)      The Institutional Shareholders shall have a period of 90 days
from the date of receipt of the Compelled Sale Notice to consummate the
Compelled Sale on the terms and conditions set forth in such Compelled Sale
Notice, provided that, if such Compelled Sale is subject to regulatory approval,
such 90-day period shall be extended until the expiration of five Business Days
after all such approvals have been received, but in no event later than 180 days
following the effective date of the Compelled Sale Notice. If the Compelled Sale
shall not have been consummated during such period, the Institutional
Shareholders shall return to each of the Other Shareholders all certificates or
other applicable instruments representing Company Securities that such Other
Shareholders delivered for Transfer pursuant hereto, together with any documents
in the possession of the Institutional Shareholders executed by the Other
Shareholders in connection with such proposed Transfer, and all the restrictions
on Transfer contained in this Agreement or otherwise applicable at such time
with respect to such Company Securities owned by the Other Shareholders shall
again be in effect.

         (c)      Concurrently with the consummation of the Transfer of Company
Securities pursuant to this Section 4.02, the Institutional Shareholders shall
give notice thereof to the Other Shareholders, shall remit to each of the Other
Shareholders who have surrendered their certificates or other applicable
instruments the total consideration (the cash portion of which is to be paid by
bank or certified check) for the Company Securities Transferred pursuant hereto
and shall furnish such other evidence of the completion and time of completion
of such Transfer and the terms thereof as may be reasonably requested by such
Other Shareholders.

         (d)      Notwithstanding anything contained in this Section 4.02, there
shall be no liability on the part of the Institutional Shareholders to the Other
Shareholders (other than the obligation to return any certificates or other
applicable instruments representing Company Securities received by any
Institutional Shareholders) if the Transfer of Company Securities pursuant to
this

                                       25

<PAGE>

Section 4.02 is not consummated for whatever reason, regardless of whether the
Institutional Shareholders have delivered a Compelled Sale Notice. Whether to
effect a Transfer of Company Securities pursuant to this Section 4.02 by the
Institutional Shareholders is in the sole and absolute discretion of the
Institutional Shareholders.

         (e)      This Section 4.02 shall terminate upon the earlier to occur of
(i) the third anniversary of the date of this Agreement and (ii) the date on
which the Aggregate Ownership of the Institutional Shareholders together falls
below 35% of the aggregate Initial Ownership of Common Shares by such
Institutional Shareholders.

                                   ARTICLE 5
                               REGISTRATION RIGHTS

         Section 5.01. Demand Registration. If, at any time after the earlier
of 180 days after the consummation of the Company's First Public Offering and
the Applicable Holdback Period, the Company shall receive a written request from
either (x) both Institutional Shareholders or after the first anniversary of the
consummation of the First Public Offering, either Institutional Shareholder (an
"INSTITUTIONAL DEMAND") or (y) either of the Institutional Shareholders and
Japan Energy (a "JOINT DEMAND") that the Company effect the registration under
the Securities Act of all or a portion of such Requesting Shareholder's
Registrable Securities, and specifying the intended method of disposition
thereof, then the Company shall promptly give written notice of such requested
registration at least 15 days prior to the anticipated filing date of the
registration statement relating to such Demand Registration to each
Non-Requesting Shareholder. In addition, if at any one time after the first
anniversary of the Company's First Public Offering, the Company shall receive a
written request from Japan Energy (a "JAPAN ENERGY DEMAND") that the Company
effect the registration under the Securities Act of all or a portion of Japan
Energy's Registrable Securities, and specifying the intended method of
disposition thereof, then the Company shall promptly give written notice of such
requested registration at least 15 days prior to the anticipated filing date of
the registration statement relating to such Demand Registration to each
Non-Requesting Shareholder. Upon the Company's giving notice of a requested
registration, the Company will use its best efforts to effect, as expeditiously
as possible, the registration under the Securities Act of:

                  (i)      the Registrable Securities that the Company has been
         so requested to register by the Requesting Shareholders, then held by
         the Requesting Shareholders, and

                  (ii)     subject to the restrictions set forth in Section
         5.02, all other Registrable Securities of the same class as that
         requested to be registered

                                       26

<PAGE>

         by the Requesting Shareholders which any Non-Requesting Shareholder
         entitled to request the Company to effect an Incidental Registration
         pursuant to Section 5.02 (all such Shareholders, together with the
         Requesting Shareholders, the "HOLDERS") have requested the Company to
         register by written request received by the Company within 15 days
         after the receipt by such Holders of such written notice given by the
         Company,

         all to the extent necessary to permit the disposition (in accordance
with the intended methods thereof as aforesaid) of the Registrable Securities so
to be registered, provided that any such Joint Demand occurring during the
period between the First Public Offering and the first anniversary of the First
Public Offering can occur only following the first Institutional Demand, and
provided further that the Company shall not be obligated to effect a Demand
Registration unless either (x) the aggregate proceeds expected to be received
from the sale of the Common Shares requested to be included in such Demand
Registration equal or exceed $25,000,000 or, in the case of a Shortform
Registration, $5,000,000 or (y) the remaining portion of Registrable Securities
held by at least one Requesting Shareholder would be registered pursuant to such
Demand Registration. In no event will the Company be required to effect more
than one Demand Registration hereunder within any six-month period.

         "REQUESTING SHAREHOLDER" means (i) with respect to an Institutional
Demand, the Institutional Shareholder or Shareholders exercising such
Institutional Demand, or, (ii) in respect of a Joint Demand, an Institutional
Shareholder together with Japan Energy, and (iii) in respect of a Japan Energy
Demand, Japan Energy. "NON-REQUESTING SHAREHOLDER" means each Shareholder with
respect to a Demand Registration that is not a Requesting Shareholder. Each of
the Institutional Demand, the Joint Demand and the Japan Energy Demand is
referred to herein as a "DEMAND REGISTRATION".

         (b)      Promptly after the expiration of the 15-day period referred to
in Section 5.01(a)(ii) hereof, the Company will notify all the Holders to be
included in the Demand Registration of the other Holders and the number of
shares of Registrable Securities requested to be included therein. At any time
prior to the effective date of the registration statement relating to such
registration, the Requesting Shareholders may revoke such request, without
liability to any of the other Holders, by providing a written notice to the
Company revoking such request. A request, so revoked, shall be considered to be
a Demand Registration unless (i) such revocation arose out of the fault of the
Company (in which case the Company shall be obligated to pay all Registration
Expenses in connection with such revoked request), or (ii) the Requesting
Shareholders reimburse the Company for all Registration Expenses of such revoked
request.

                                       27

<PAGE>

         (c)      The Company will be liable for and pay all Registration
Expenses in connection with any Demand Registration, regardless of whether it is
effected, except as provided in (b)(ii) above.

         (d)      A Demand Registration shall not be deemed to have occurred

                  (i)      unless the registration statement relating thereto
         (A) has become effective under the Securities Act and (B) has remained
         effective for a period of at least 120 days (or such shorter period in
         which all Registrable Securities of the Holders included in such
         registration have actually been sold thereunder), provided that such
         registration statement shall not be considered a Demand Registration
         if, after any registration statement requested pursuant to this Section
         5.01 becomes effective, (x) such registration statement is interfered
         with by any stop order, injunction or other order or requirement of the
         SEC or other governmental agency or court and (y) less than 75% of the
         Registrable Securities included in such registration statement have
         been sold thereunder, or

                  (ii)     if the Maximum Offering Size (as defined below) is
         reduced in accordance with Section 5.01(e) such that less than 75% of
         the Registrable Securities of the Requesting Shareholders sought to be
         included in such registration are included.

         (e)      If a Demand Registration involves an underwritten Public
Offering and the managing underwriter shall advise the Company and the
Requesting Shareholders that, in its view, the number of shares of Registrable
Securities requested to be included in such registration (including any
securities that the Company proposes to be included that are not Registrable
Securities) exceeds the largest number of shares that can be sold without having
an adverse effect on such offering, including the price at which such shares can
be sold (the "MAXIMUM OFFERING SIZE"), the Company will include in such
registration, in the priority listed below, up to the Maximum Offering Size:

                           (A)      first, all Registrable Securities requested
                  to be registered by the Requesting Shareholders and their
                  Permitted Transferees and, in the case of a Joint Demand or an
                  Institutional Demand exercised by a single Institutional
                  Shareholder, all Registrable Securities requested to be
                  registered by both Institutional Shareholders and their
                  Permitted Transferees (allocated, if necessary for the
                  offering not to exceed the Maximum Offering Size, pro rata
                  among such entities on the basis of the relative number of
                  shares of Registrable Securities so requested to be
                  registered),

                                       28

<PAGE>

                           (B)      second, all Registrable Securities requested
                  to be included in such registration by any Non-Requesting
                  Shareholder and its Permitted Transferees (allocated, if
                  necessary for the offering not to exceed the Maximum Offering
                  Size, pro rata among the Non-Requesting Shareholders and their
                  Permitted Transferees on the basis of the relative number of
                  Registrable Securities so requested to be included in such
                  registration) excluding, for purposes of this paragraph (B),
                  the Registrable Securities of a Non-Requesting Institutional
                  Shareholder in the case of a Joint Demand or an Institutional
                  Demand in which such Non-Requesting Institutional Shareholder
                  is included in paragraph (A) above, and

                           (C)      third, any securities proposed to be
                  registered for the account of any other Persons (including the
                  Company), with such priorities among them as the Company shall
                  determine.

         (f)      Upon written notice to each Requesting Shareholder, the
Company may postpone effecting a registration pursuant to this Section 5.01 on
one occasion during any period of 12 consecutive months for a reasonable time
specified in the notice but not exceeding 90 days (which period may not be
extended or renewed), if (1) an investment banking firm of recognized national
standing shall advise the Company and the Requesting Shareholders in writing
that effecting the registration would materially and adversely affect an
offering of securities of such Company the preparation of which had then been
commenced or (2) the Company is in possession of material non-public information
the disclosure of which during the period specified in such notice the Company
believes would not be in the best interests of the Company.

         Section 5.02. Incidental Registration. If, at any time after the First
Public Offering, the Company proposes to register any Company Securities under
the Securities Act (other than a registration on Form S-8 or S-4, or any
successor or similar forms, relating to Common Shares issuable upon exercise of
employee stock options or in connection with any employee benefit or similar
plan of the Company or in connection with a direct or indirect acquisition by
the Company of another Person), whether or not for sale for its own account, it
will each such time, subject to the provisions of Section 5.02(b), give prompt
written notice at least 30 Business Days prior to the anticipated filing date of
the registration statement relating to such registration to each Shareholder,
which notice shall set forth such Shareholder's rights under this Section 5.02
and shall offer such Shareholder the opportunity to include in such registration
statement the number of Registrable Securities of the same class or series as
those proposed to be registered as each such Shareholder may request (an
"INCIDENTAL REGISTRATION"), subject to the provisions of 5.02(b). Upon the
written request of any such Shareholder made within 15 days after the receipt of
notice from the Company

                                       29

<PAGE>

(which request shall specify the number of Registrable Securities intended to be
disposed of by such Shareholder), the Company will use all reasonable efforts to
effect the registration under the Securities Act of all Registrable Securities
that the Company has been so requested to register by all such Shareholders, to
the extent requisite to permit the disposition of the Registrable Securities so
to be registered, provided that (i) if such registration involves an
underwritten Public Offering, all such Shareholders requesting to be included in
the Company's registration must sell their Registrable Securities to the
underwriters selected as provided in Section 5.04(f) on the same terms and
conditions as apply to the Company or the Requesting Shareholder, as applicable,
and (ii) if, at any time after giving written notice of its intention to
register any securities pursuant to this Section 5.02(a) and prior to the
effective date of the registration statement filed in connection with such
registration, the Company shall determine for any reason not to register such
securities, the Company shall give written notice to all such Shareholders and,
thereupon, shall be relieved of its obligation to register any Registrable
Securities in connection with such registration. No registration effected under
this Section 5.02 shall relieve the Company of its obligations to effect a
Demand Registration to the extent required by Section 5.01. The Company shall
pay all Registration Expenses in connection with each registration of
Registrable Securities requested pursuant to this Section 5.02.

         (b)      If a registration pursuant to this Section 5.02 involves an
underwritten Public Offering (other than any Demand Registration, in which case
the provisions with respect to priority of inclusion in such offering set forth
in Section 5.01(e) shall apply) and the managing underwriter advises the Company
that, in its view, the number of Shares that the Company and such Shareholders
intend to include in such registration exceeds the Maximum Offering Size, the
Company will include in such registration, in the following priority, up to the
Maximum Offering Size:

                  (i)      first, so much of the securities proposed to be
         registered for the account of the Company as would not cause the
         offering to exceed the Maximum Offering Size,

                  (ii)     second, all Registrable Securities requested to be
         included in such registration by the Institutional Shareholders and
         Japan Energy and each of their Permitted Transferees, (allocated, if
         necessary for the offering not to exceed the Maximum Offering Size, pro
         rata among such entities or persons on the basis of the relative number
         of shares of Registrable Securities so requested to be included in such
         registration),

                  (iii)    third, any securities proposed to be registered for
         the account of any other Persons with such priorities among them as the
         Company shall determine.

                                       30

<PAGE>

         Section 5.03. Holdback Agreements. If any registration of Registrable
Securities shall be in connection with a Public Offering, each Institutional
Shareholder and each Other Shareholder and the Company agree not to effect any
public sale or distribution, including any sale pursuant to Rule 144 or Rule
144A under the Securities Act, of any Registrable Securities, and not to effect
any such public sale or distribution of any other security of the Company or of
any stock convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for any Common Stock
(in each case, other than as part of such Public Offering) during the 14 days
prior to the effective date of the applicable registration statement (except as
part of such registration) or during the period after such effective date equal
to the lesser of (i) such period of time as the Company and the lead managing
underwriter shall agree and (ii) 180 days (such lesser period, the "APPLICABLE
HOLDBACK PERIOD").

         Section 5.04. Registration Procedures. Whenever Shareholders request
that any Registrable Securities be registered pursuant to Section 5.01 or 5.02
hereof, subject to the provisions of such Sections, the Company will use its
best efforts to effect the registration and the sale of such Registrable
Securities in accordance with the intended method of disposition thereof as
quickly as practicable, and in connection with any such request:

         (a)      The Company will as expeditiously as possible (but in any
event within (i) 45 days of receipt of a request for a Demand Registration or
(ii) in the case of a Shortform Registration, within 21 days of receipt of a
request for a Demand Registration) prepare and file with the SEC a registration
statement on any form reasonably acceptable to the Requesting Shareholders for
which the Company then qualifies or that counsel for the Company shall deem
appropriate and which form shall be available for the sale of the Registrable
Securities to be registered thereunder in accordance with the intended method of
distribution thereof, and use its best efforts to cause such filed registration
statement to become and remain effective for a period of not less than 180 days,
or in the case of a shelf registration statement, one year (or such shorter
period in which all of the Registrable Securities of the Holders included in
such registration statement shall have actually been sold thereunder).

         (b)      Prior to filing a registration statement or prospectus or any
amendment or supplement thereto, the Company will, if requested, furnish to each
participating Shareholder and each underwriter, if any, of the Registrable
Securities covered by such registration statement copies of such registration
statement as proposed to be filed, and thereafter the Company will furnish to
such Shareholder and underwriter, if any, such number of copies of such
registration statement, each amendment and supplement thereto (in each case
including all exhibits thereto and documents incorporated by reference therein),
the prospectus included in such registration statement (including each
preliminary prospectus and any summary prospectus) and any other prospectus
filed under Rule 424 or Rule 430A under the Securities Act and such other
documents as such

                                       31

<PAGE>

Shareholder or underwriter may reasonably request in order to facilitate the
disposition of the Registrable Securities owned by such Shareholder. Each
Institutional Shareholder shall have the right to request that the Company
modify any information contained in such registration statement, amendment and
supplement thereto pertaining to such Institutional Shareholder and the Company
shall use all reasonable efforts to comply with such request, provided, however,
that the Company shall not have any obligation so to modify any information if
so doing would cause the prospectus to contain an untrue statement of a material
fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or
necessary to make the statements therein not misleading.

         (c)      After the filing of the registration statement, the Company
will (i) cause the related prospectus to be supplemented by any required
prospectus supplement, and, as so supplemented, to be filed pursuant to Rule 424
under the Securities Act, (ii) to comply with the provisions of the Securities
Act with respect to the disposition of all Registrable Securities covered by
such registration statement during the applicable period in accordance with the
intended methods of disposition by the sellers thereof set forth in such
registration statement or supplement to such prospectus and (iii) promptly
notify each Shareholder holding Registrable Securities covered by such
registration statement of any stop order issued or threatened by the SEC or any
state securities commission under state blue sky laws and take all reasonable
actions required to prevent the entry of such stop order or to remove it if
entered.

         (d)      The Company will use all reasonable efforts to (i) register or
qualify the Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement under
such other securities or blue sky laws of such jurisdictions in the United
States as any Shareholder holding such Registrable Securities reasonably (in
light of such Shareholder's intended plan of distribution) requests and (ii)
cause such Registrable Securities to be registered with or approved by such
other governmental agencies or authorities as may be necessary by virtue of the
business and operations of the Company and do any and all other acts and things
that may be reasonably necessary or advisable to enable such Shareholder to
consummate the disposition of the Registrable Securities owned by such
Shareholder, provided that the Company will not be required to (A) qualify
generally to do business in any jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be
required to qualify but for this paragraph (d), (B) subject itself to taxation
in any such jurisdiction or (C) consent to general service of process in any
such jurisdiction.

         (e)      The Company will immediately notify each Shareholder holding
such Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement, at any time
when a prospectus relating thereto is required to be delivered under the
Securities Act, of the occurrence of an event requiring the preparation of a
supplement or amendment to such prospectus so that, as thereafter delivered to
the purchasers of

                                       32

<PAGE>

such Registrable Securities, such prospectus will not contain an untrue
statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be
stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading and
promptly prepare and make available to each such Shareholder and file with the
SEC any such supplement or amendment.

         (f)      The Institutional Shareholders will have the right, in their
sole discretion, to select an underwriter or underwriters in connection with any
Public Offering resulting from the exercise of a Demand Registration, which
underwriter or underwriters may include any Affiliate of any Institutional
Shareholder, and ERROR! BOOKMARK NOT DEFINED. the Company will select an
underwriter or underwriters in connection with any other Public Offering. In
connection with any Public Offering, the Company will enter into customary
agreements (including an underwriting agreement in customary form) and take such
other actions as are reasonably required in order to expedite or facilitate the
disposition of such Registrable Securities in any such Public Offering,
including the engagement of a "qualified independent underwriter" in connection
with the qualification of the underwriting arrangements with the NASD.

         (g)      Upon execution of confidentiality agreements in form and
substance reasonably satisfactory to the Company, the Company will make
available for inspection by any Shareholder and any underwriter participating in
any disposition pursuant to a registration statement being filed by the Company
pursuant to this Section 5.04 and any attorney, accountant or other professional
retained by any such Shareholder or underwriter (collectively, the
"INSPECTORS"), all financial and other records, pertinent corporate documents
and properties of the Company (collectively, the "RECORDS") as shall be
reasonably necessary or desirable to enable them to exercise their due diligence
responsibility, and cause the Company's officers, directors and employees to
supply all information reasonably requested by any Inspectors in connection with
such registration statement. Records that the Company determines, in good faith,
to be confidential and that it notifies the Inspectors are confidential shall
not be disclosed by the Inspectors unless (i) the disclosure of such Records is
necessary to avoid or correct a misstatement or omission in such registration
statement or (ii) the release of such Records is ordered pursuant to a subpoena
or other order from a court of competent jurisdiction. Each Shareholder agrees
that information obtained by it as a result of such inspections shall be deemed
confidential and shall not be used by it or its Affiliates as the basis for any
market transactions in the Company Securities unless and until such is made
generally available to the public. Each Shareholder further agrees that, upon
learning that disclosure of such Records is sought in a court of competent
jurisdiction, it will give notice to the Company and allow the Company, at its
expense, to undertake appropriate action to prevent disclosure of the Records
deemed confidential.

                                       33

<PAGE>

         (h)      The Company will furnish to each such Shareholder and to each
such underwriter, if any, a signed counterpart, addressed to such Shareholder or
underwriter, of (i) an opinion or opinions of counsel to the Company and (ii) a
comfort letter or comfort letters from the Company's independent public
accountants, each in customary form and covering such matters of the kind
customarily covered by opinions or comfort letters, as the case may be, as a
majority of such Shareholders or the managing underwriter therefor reasonably
requests.

         (i)      The Company will otherwise use its best efforts to comply with
all applicable rules and regulations of the SEC, and make available to its
securityholders, as soon as reasonably practicable, an earnings statement or
such other document covering a period of 12 months, beginning within three
months after the effective date of the registration statement, which earnings
statement shall satisfy the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act
and Rule 158 thereunder.

         (j)      The Company may require each such Shareholder promptly to
furnish in writing to the Company such information regarding the distribution of
the Registrable Securities as the Company may from time to time reasonably
request and such other information as may be legally required in connection with
such registration.

         (k)      Each such Shareholder agrees that, upon receipt of any notice
from the Company of the happening of any event of the kind described in Section
5.04(e) hereof, such Shareholder will forthwith discontinue disposition of
Registrable Securities pursuant to the registration statement covering such
Registrable Securities until such Shareholder's receipt of the copies of the
supplemented or amended prospectus contemplated by Section 5.04(e) hereof, and,
if so directed by the Company, such Shareholder will deliver to the Company all
copies, other than any permanent file copies then in such Shareholder's
possession, of the most recent prospectus covering such Registrable Securities
at the time of receipt of such notice. In the event that the Company shall give
such notice, the Company shall extend the period during which such registration
statement shall be maintained effective (including the period referred to in
Section 5.04(a) hereof) by the number of days during the period from and
including the date of the giving of notice pursuant to Section 5.04(e) hereof to
the date when the Company shall make available to such Shareholder a prospectus
supplemented or amended to conform with the requirements of Section 5.04(e)
hereof.

         (l)      The Company will use its best efforts to list all Registrable
Securities covered by such registration statement on any securities exchange or
quotation system on which any of the Registrable Securities are then listed or
traded.

                                       34

<PAGE>

         (m)      The Company will provide and cause to be maintained a transfer
agent and registrar for all Registrable Securities covered by such registration
statement from and after a date not later than the effective date of such
registration statement.

         Section 5.05. Indemnification by the Company. The Company agrees to
indemnify and hold harmless each Shareholder holding Registrable Securities
covered by a registration statement, its officers, directors, employees,
partners and agents, and each Person, if any, who controls such Shareholder
within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the
Exchange Act from and against any and all losses, claims, damages and
liabilities caused by any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a
material fact contained in any registration statement or prospectus relating to
the Registrable Securities (as amended or supplemented if the Company shall have
furnished any amendments or supplements thereto) or any preliminary prospectus,
or caused by any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact
required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not
misleading, except insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities are
caused by any such untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or
omission so made based upon information furnished in writing to the Company by
such Shareholder or on such Shareholder's behalf expressly for use therein,
provided that, with respect to any untrue statement or omission or alleged
untrue statement or omission made in any preliminary prospectus, or in any
prospectus, as the case may be, the indemnity agreement contained in this
paragraph shall not apply to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage,
liability or expense results from the fact that a current copy of the prospectus
(or such amended or supplemented prospectus, as the case may be) was not sent or
given to the Person asserting any such loss, claim, damage, liability or expense
at or prior to the written confirmation of the sale of the Registrable
Securities concerned to such Person if it is determined that the Company has
provided such prospectus to such Shareholder and it was the responsibility of
such Shareholder to provide such Person with a current copy of the prospectus
(or such amended or supplemented prospectus, as the case may be) and such
current copy of the prospectus (or such amended or supplemented prospectus, as
the case may be) would have cured the defect giving rise to such loss, claim,
damage, liability or expense. The Company also agrees to indemnify any
underwriters of the Registrable Securities, their officers and directors and
each person who controls such underwriters on substantially the same basis as
that of the indemnification of the Shareholders provided in this Section 5.05.

         Section 5.06. Indemnification by Participating Shareholders. Each
Shareholder holding Registrable Securities included in any registration
statement agrees, severally but not jointly, to indemnify and hold harmless the
Company, its officers, directors and agents and each Person, if any, who
controls the Company within the meaning of either Section 15 of the Securities
Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act to the same extent as the foregoing
indemnity from the Company to

                                       35

<PAGE>

such Shareholder, but only (i) with respect to information furnished in writing
by such Shareholder or on such Shareholder's behalf expressly for use in any
registration statement or prospectus relating to the Registrable Securities, or
any amendment or supplement thereto, or any preliminary prospectus or (ii) to
the extent that any loss, claim, damage, liability or expense described in
Section 5.05 results from the fact that a current copy of the prospectus (or
such amended or supplemented prospectus, as the case may be) was not sent or
given to the Person asserting any such loss, claim, damage, liability or expense
at or prior to the written confirmation of the sale of the Registrable
Securities concerned to such Person if it is determined that it was the
responsibility of such Shareholder to provide such Person with a current copy of
the prospectus (or such amended or supplemented prospectus, as the case may be)
and such current copy of the prospectus (or such amended or supplemented
prospectus, as the case may be) would have cured the defect giving rise to such
loss, claim, damage, liability or expense. Each such Shareholder also agrees to
indemnify and hold harmless underwriters of the Registrable Securities, their
officers and directors and each Person who controls such underwriters on
substantially the same basis as that of the indemnification of the Company
provided in this Section 5.06. As a condition to including Registrable
Securities in any registration statement filed in accordance with Article 5
hereof, the Company may require that it shall have received an undertaking
reasonably satisfactory to it from any underwriter to indemnify and hold it
harmless to the extent customarily provided by underwriters with respect to
similar securities. No Shareholder shall be liable under this Section 5.06 for
any loss, claim, damage, liability or expense in excess of the net proceeds
realized by such Shareholder in the sale of Registrable Securities of such
Shareholder to which such loss, claim, damage, liability or expense relates.

         Section 5.07. Conduct of Indemnification Proceedings. In case any
proceeding (including any governmental investigation) shall be instituted
involving any Person in respect of which indemnity may be sought pursuant to
this Article 5, such Person (an "INDEMNIFIED PARTY") shall promptly notify the
Person against whom such indemnity may be sought (the "INDEMNIFYING PARTY") in
writing and the Indemnifying Party shall assume the defense thereof, including
the employment of counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Party, and
shall assume the payment of all fees and expenses, provided that the failure of
any Indemnified Party so to notify the Indemnifying Party shall not relieve the
Indemnifying Party of its obligations hereunder except to the extent that the
Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced by such failure to notify. In any
such proceeding, any Indemnified Party shall have the right to retain its own
counsel, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of
such Indemnified Party unless (i) the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified
Party shall have mutually agreed to the retention of such counsel or (ii) in the
reasonable judgment of such Indemnified Party representation of both parties by
the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing
interests between them. It is understood that, in connection with any proceeding

                                       36

<PAGE>

or related proceedings in the same jurisdiction, the Indemnifying Party shall
not be liable for the reasonable fees and expenses of more than one separate
firm of attorneys (in addition to any local counsel) at any time for all such
Indemnified Parties, and that all such fees and expenses shall be reimbursed as
they are incurred. In the case of any such separate firm for the Indemnified
Parties, such firm shall be designated in writing by the Indemnified Parties.
The Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding
effected without its written consent, but if settled with such consent, or if
there be a final judgment for the plaintiff, the Indemnifying Party shall
indemnify and hold harmless such Indemnified Parties from and against any loss
or liability (to the extent stated above) by reason of such settlement or
judgment. Without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, no
Indemnifying Party shall effect any settlement of any pending or threatened
proceeding in respect of which any Indemnified Party is or could have been a
party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such Indemnified Party,
unless such settlement includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified
Party from all liability arising out of such proceeding.

         Section 5.08. Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in
this Article 5 is unavailable to the Indemnified Parties in respect of any
losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to herein, then each such
Indemnifying Party, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Party, shall
contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result
of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (i) as between the Company and
the Shareholders holding Registrable Securities covered by a registration
statement on the one hand and the underwriters on the other, in such proportion
as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company and
such Shareholders on the one hand and the underwriters on the other, from the
offering of the Registrable Securities, or if such allocation is not permitted
by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the
relative benefits but also the relative fault of the Company and such
Shareholders on the one hand and of such underwriters on the other in connection
with the statements or omissions that resulted in such losses, claims, damages
or liabilities, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations and (ii)
as between the Company on the one hand and each such Shareholder on the other,
in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the
Company and of each such Shareholder in connection with such statements or
omissions, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative
benefits received by the Company and such Shareholders on the one hand and such
underwriters on the other shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the
total proceeds from the offering (net of underwriting discounts and commissions
but before deducting expenses) received by the Company and such Shareholders
bear to the total underwriting discounts and commissions received by such
underwriters, in each case as set forth in the table on the cover page of the
prospectus. The relative fault of the Company and such Shareholders on the one
hand and of such underwriters on the other shall be

                                       37

<PAGE>

determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged
untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state
a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company and such
Shareholders or by such underwriters. The relative fault of the Company on the
one hand and of each such Shareholder on the other shall be determined by
reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement
of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact
relates to information supplied by such party, and the parties' relative intent,
knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such
statement or omission.

         The Company and the Shareholders agree that it would not be just and
equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 5.08 were determined by pro
rata allocation (even if the underwriters were treated as one entity for such
purpose) or by any other method of allocation that does not take account of the
equitable considerations referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph. The
amount paid or payable by an Indemnified Party as a result of the losses,
claims, damages or liabilities referred to in the immediately preceding
paragraph shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth
above, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such Indemnified Party
in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim.
Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 5.08, no underwriter shall be
required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total
price at which the Registrable Securities underwritten by it and distributed to
the public were offered to the public exceeds the amount of any damages that
such underwriter has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or
alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission, and no Shareholder
shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the
total price at which the Registrable Securities of such Shareholder were offered
to the public exceeds the amount of any damages that such Shareholder has
otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue
statement or omission or alleged omission. No Person guilty of fraudulent
misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act)
shall be entitled to contribution from any Person who was not guilty of such
fraudulent misrepresentation. Each Shareholder's obligation to contribute
pursuant to this Section 5.08 is several in the proportion that the proceeds of
the offering received by such Shareholder bears to the total proceeds of the
offering received by all such Shareholders and not joint.

         Section 5.09. Participation in Public Offering. No Person may
participate in any Public Offering hereunder unless such Person (a) agrees to
sell such Person's securities on the basis provided in any underwriting
arrangements approved by the Persons entitled hereunder to approve such
arrangements and (b) completes and executes all questionnaires, powers of
attorney, indemnities, underwriting agreements and other documents reasonably
required under the

                                       38

<PAGE>

terms of such underwriting arrangements and the provisions of this Agreement in
respect of registration rights.

         Section 5.10. Other Indemnification. Indemnification similar to that
specified herein (with appropriate modifications) shall be given by the Company
and each Shareholder participating therein with respect to any required
registration or other qualification of securities under any federal or state law
or regulation or governmental authority other than the Securities Act.

         Section 5.11. Cooperation by the Company. If any Shareholder shall
transfer any Registrable Securities pursuant to Rule 144 or Rule 144A under the
Securities Act, the Company shall cooperate, to the extent commercially
reasonable, with such Shareholder and shall provide to such Shareholder such
information as such Shareholder shall reasonably request.

         Section 5.12. No Transfer of Registration Rights. None of the rights
of Shareholders under this Article 5 shall be assignable by any Shareholder to
any Person acquiring Securities in any Public Offering or pursuant to Rule 144
or Rule 144A of the Securities Act.

                                   ARTICLE 6
                        CERTAIN COVENANTS AND AGREEMENTS

         Section 6.01. Confidentiality. (a) Each Shareholder agrees that
Confidential Information (as defined below) furnished and to be furnished to it
was and will be made available in connection with such Shareholder's investment
in the Company. Each Shareholder agrees that it will use, and that it will cause
any Person to whom Confidential Information is disclosed pursuant to clause (i)
below to use, the Confidential Information only in connection with its
investment in the Company and not for any other purpose (including, without
limitation, to disadvantage competitively the Company or any other Shareholder).
Each Shareholder further acknowledges and agrees that it will not disclose any
Confidential Information to any Person, provided that Confidential Information
may be disclosed (i) to such Shareholder's Representatives (as defined below) in
the normal course of the performance of their duties or to any financial
institution providing credit to such Shareholder, (ii) to the extent required by
applicable law, rule or regulation (including complying with any oral or written
questions, interrogatories, requests for information or documents, subpoena,
civil investigative demand or similar process to which a Shareholder is subject,
provided that such Shareholder gives the Company prompt notice of such
request(s), to the extent practicable, so that the Company may seek an
appropriate protective order or similar relief (and the Shareholder shall
cooperate with such efforts by the Company, and shall in any event make only the
minimum disclosure required by such law, rule or regulation)), (iii) to any
Person to whom

                                       39

<PAGE>

such Shareholder is contemplating a Transfer of its Company Securities (provided
that such Transfer would not be in violation of the provisions of this Agreement
and as long as such potential transferee is advised of the confidential nature
of such information and agrees to be bound by a confidentiality agreement in
form and substance satisfactory to the Company and consistent with the
provisions hereof), (iv) to any regulatory authority or rating agency to which
the Shareholder or any of its affiliates is subject or with which it has regular
dealings, as long as such authority or agency is advised of the confidential
nature of such information or (v) if the prior written consent of the Board
shall have been obtained. Nothing contained herein shall prevent the use
(subject, to the extent possible, to a protective order) of Confidential
Information in connection with the assertion or defense of any claim by or
against the Company or any Shareholder.

         (b)      "CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION" means any information concerning
the Company and Persons that are or become its Subsidiaries or the financial
condition, business, operations or prospects of the Company and Persons that are
or become its Subsidiaries in the possession of or furnished to any Shareholder
(including, without limitation by virtue of its present or former right to
designate a director of the Company), provided that the term Confidential
Information does not include information that (i) is or becomes generally
available to the public other than as a result of a disclosure by a Shareholder
or its partners, directors, officers, employees, agents, counsel, investment
advisers or representatives (all such persons being collectively referred to as
"REPRESENTATIVES") in violation of this Agreement, (ii) is or was available to
such Shareholder on a non-confidential basis prior to its disclosure to such
Shareholder or its Representatives by the Company or (iii) was or becomes
available to such Shareholder on a non-confidential basis from a source other
than the Company, provided that such source is or was (at the time of receipt of
the relevant information) not, to the best of such Shareholder's knowledge,
bound by a confidentiality agreement with (or other confidentiality obligation
to) the Company or another Person.

         Section 6.02. Information. So long as any Company Securities remain
outstanding, the Company shall deliver to each Five Percent Shareholder:

         (a)      After the end of the first three fiscal quarters, as soon as
practicable and in any event on or before the applicable filing deadline for
filing quarterly reports on Form 10-Q (or any successor form) with the SEC,

such period and the related consolidated statements of income, stockholders'
equity and cash flow of the Company and its Subsidiaries for such fiscal
quarter, setting forth in each case in comparative form the consolidated figures
for the corresponding periods of the previous fiscal year, all in reasonable
detail and certified by the Company's Chief Financial Officer that they fairly
present the financial condition of the Company and its Subsidiaries as at the
dates indicated and the results of their operations and

                                       40

<PAGE>

changes in their financial position for the periods indicated, subject to normal
year-end adjustments;

         (b)      After the end of each fiscal year as soon as practicable and
in any event on or before the applicable filing deadline for filing annual
reports on Form 10-K (or any successor form), consolidated balance sheets of the
Company and its Subsidiaries as at the end of such year and the related
consolidated statements of income, stockholders' equity and cash flow of the
Company and its Subsidiaries for such fiscal year, setting forth in each case,
in comparative form, the consolidated figures for the previous year, all in
reasonable detail and accompanied by a report thereon of independent certified
public accountants of recognized national standing selected by the Company,
which report shall be unqualified as to going concern and scope of audit and
shall state that such consolidated financial statements present fairly the
financial position of the Company and its Subsidiaries as at the dates indicated
and the results of their operations and changes in their financial position for
the periods indicated in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles applied on a basis consistent with prior years (except as otherwise
stated therein) and that the examination by such accountants in connection with
such consolidated financial statements has been made in accordance with
generally accepted auditing standards;

         (c)      As soon as practicable and in any event no later than 20 days

items set forth in Exhibit B hereto;

         (d)      Promptly upon receipt thereof, copies of all reports submitted
to the Company by independent public accountants in connection with each annual,
interim or special audit of the Company's financial statements made by such
accountant, including, without limitation, the comment letter submitted by such
accountants to management in connection with their annual audit;

         (e)      Promptly upon their becoming available, copies of all
financial statements, reports, notices and proxy statements sent or made
available generally by the Company to its securityholders or by any Subsidiary
of the Company to its securityholders other than the Company or another
Subsidiary, of all regular and periodic reports and all registration statements
and prospectuses, if any, filed by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries with
any securities exchange or with the SEC or any governmental authority succeeding
to any of its functions, and of all press releases and other written statements
made available generally by the Company or any Subsidiary to the public
concerning material developments in the business of the Company and its
Subsidiaries;

                                       41

<PAGE>

         (f)      All information provided in writing to the banks pursuant to
the Company's principal credit facility; and

         (g)      From time to time such additional information regarding the
financial position or business of the Company and its Subsidiaries as a
Shareholder may reasonably request.

         (h)      The Company's obligation to provide information pursuant to
paragraphs (a) and (b) of this Section 6.02 and Section 6.03 shall be deemed
satisfied upon the timely filing of such information with the SEC.

         Section 6.03. Reports. Subject to Section 6.02(h), the Company will
furnish the Shareholders with the quarterly and annual financial reports that
the Company is required to file with the SEC pursuant to Section 13 or Section
15(d) of the Exchange Act or, in the event the Company is not required to file
such reports, quarterly and annual reports containing the same information as
would be required in such reports.

         Section 6.04. Cooperation in Refinancing. Each Shareholder agrees to
cooperate to the extent commercially reasonable with the Company and take such
steps as the Board reasonably deems appropriate in any financing of debt of the
Company and any of its Subsidiaries, including executing such documents as the
Board reasonably determines should be filed with any governmental agency and
conducting presentations to potential investors and rating agencies. This
Section 6.04 shall not be construed to require any Shareholder to contribute any
additional capital to the Company.

         Section 6.05. Appointment of Shareholder Representative. Each of FP
and, to the extent that any Permitted Transferee of FP shall have become a
Shareholder, such Shareholder irrevocably appoint the FP Shareholder
Representative its agent and true and lawful attorney-in-fact, with full power
of substitution, to take the actions, receive notices and exercise the powers
delegated to the FP Shareholder Representative under this Agreement in the name
of each such Shareholder, together with such actions and powers as are
reasonably incidental thereto. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the FP Shareholder
Representative shall not take any action or exercise any power to the extent
that the holders of the majority of the Fully Diluted Common Shares held by FP
and its Permitted Transferees shall have voted to prevent the Shareholder
Representative from taking such action or exercising such power. "FP SHAREHOLDER
REPRESENTATIVE" means FP, as agent for FP and its Permitted Transferees that are
Shareholders. The entity appointed as the FP Shareholder Representative may be
replaced at any time and from time to time by the vote of a majority of the
Fully Diluted Common Shares held by FP and its Permitted Transferees. Either of
FP or the new FP Shareholder Representative shall notify

                                       42

<PAGE>

the Company of such appointment as promptly as practicable after such
appointment.

         (b)      Each CVC Entity and, to the extent that any Permitted
Transferee of any CVC Entity shall have become a Shareholder, such Shareholder
irrevocably appoint the CVC Shareholder Representative its agent and true and
lawful attorney-in-fact, with full power of substitution, to take the actions,
receive notices and exercise the powers delegated to the CVC Shareholder
Representative under this Agreement in the name of each such Shareholder,
together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the CVC Shareholder Representative shall not take
any action or exercise any power to the extent that the holders of the majority
of the Fully Diluted Common Shares held by the CVC Entities and their Permitted
Transferees shall have voted to prevent the Shareholder Representative from
taking such action or exercising such power. "CVC SHAREHOLDER REPRESENTATIVE"
means Equity Partners as agent for the CVC Entities and their Permitted
Transferees that are Shareholders. The entity appointed as the CVC Shareholder
Representative may be replaced at any time and from time to time by the vote of
a majority of the Fully Diluted Common Shares held by the CVC Entities and their
Permitted Transferees. Either of Equity Partners or the new CVC Shareholder
Representative shall notify the Company of such appointment as promptly as
practicable after such appointment.

remedy, obligation or liability arising hereunder or by reason hereof shall be
assignable by any party hereto pursuant to any Transfer of Company Securities or
otherwise, except that, subject to Section 3.03(b), any Permitted Transferee

                                       43

purchase, option, stock option or other compensation plan of the Company or any
Subsidiary to become a party hereto shall (unless already bound hereby) execute
and deliver to the Company an agreement to be bound by this Agreement in the
form of Exhibit A hereto and shall thenceforth be a "SHAREHOLDER". Any
Shareholder who ceases to own beneficially any Company Securities shall cease to
be bound by the terms hereof (other than (i) the provisions of Sections 5.05,

     -------------------

          2.1. Shelf Registration. Subject to the conditions set forth in

event by the later of (x) 30 days after the Closing Date and (y) the
Competition Office Approval Date, file a registration statement under the
Securities Act relating to the Registrable Securities, which registration
statement provides for the sale by SDC Prague of Registrable Securities
from time to time on a delayed or continuous basis pursuant to Rule 415
under the Securities Act (the "Registration Statement"). The Company shall
use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Registration Statement to
be declared effective as soon as practicable following such filing. The
Company hereby represents and warrants that, as of the date hereof, the
Company meets the requirements for use of Form S-3 for registration of the
resale of Registrable Securities and does not have any actual knowledge of
any fact which would reasonably result in its not meeting such
requirements.

          2.2. Effectiveness Period. Subject to the conditions set forth in
Section 3 hereof, upon having the Registration Statement declared effective
by the SEC, the Company agrees to use its reasonable best efforts to keep
the Registration Statement continuously effective and usable for the resale
of Registrable Securities for a period ending on the earlier of (i) the
first anniversary of the Closing Date (such date to be extended by the
number of days beginning on the date the Company gives notice to SDC Prague
of any Delay Period (defined below) to and including the date on which SDC
Prague receives notice from the Company of the reinstatement of
effectiveness of the Registration Statement); and (ii) the date on which
Registrable Securities are no longer owned by SDC Prague or SDC
International (the "Effectiveness Period").

3.   Conditions and Limitations.
     --------------------------

          Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, SDC Prague
agrees:

               (a) The Company shall have the right to suspend the
effectiveness of the Registration Statement, for up to 45 consecutive days,
but no more than an aggregate of 135 days during any 365 day period (a
"Delay Period") if (i) (A) an event occurs and is continuing as a result of
which the Registration Statement would, in the Company's good faith
judgment, contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a
material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein not
misleading and (B) if the Company determines in good faith that the
disclosure of such event at such time would have a material adverse effect
on the business, operations or prospects of the Company or (ii) the
disclosure otherwise relates to a pending material business transaction
which has not yet been publicly disclosed. If the Company suspends the
effectiveness of a Registration Statement, the Company shall promptly
provide notice (to the extent practicable) to SDC Prague of such Delay
Period. In addition, the Company shall promptly provide notice to SDC
Prague of the reinstatement of effectiveness of the Registration Statement.
The holders of Registrable Securities shall cease all disposition efforts
with respect to Registrable Securities held by them immediately upon the
beginning of any Delay Period until notified of the end of such Delay
Period. The Company hereby represents and warrants that, as of the date
hereof, no business transaction of the type referred to in subsection (ii)
above exists or is pending.

               (b) SDC Prague shall not, during the period starting with
the Company's date of filing of, and ending 120 calendar days immediately
following the effective date of any registration statement pertaining to
securities of the Company, if so requested by an underwriter in an
underwritten offering for the Company (and only for the account of the
Company), effect any public sale or distribution of any of the Company's
equity securities including a sale pursuant to Rule 144. In addition, if
requested by the Company, SDC Prague shall not effect any public sale or
distribution of any of the Registrable Securities pursuant to the
Registration Statement, during the ten-day period prior to, and during the
pendency of, any period during which an exchange ratio or similar valuation
formula based upon the trading prices of the Common Stock is being
calculated.

               (c) SDC Prague acknowledges and agrees that no Registrable
Securities may be included in the Registration Statement pursuant to this
Agreement unless and until SDC Prague furnishes to the Company in writing,
the information specified in Item 507 of S-K and such other information
which is required to be disclosed in the Registration Statement as
reasonably determined by counsel of the Company;

4.   Registration Procedures.
     -----------------------

          In connection with the registration obligations of the Company
pursuant to and in accordance with Section 2 hereof (and subject to the
Company's rights under Section 3), the Company will use its commercially
reasonable efforts to effect such registration to permit the sale of such
Registrable Securities in accordance with the intended method or methods of
disposition thereof, and pursuant thereto the Company shall as
expeditiously as possible:

               (a) prepare and file with the SEC such amendments (including
post-effective amendments) to the Registration Statement, and such
supplements to the Prospectus, as may be required by the rules, regulations
or instructions applicable to the Securities Act or the rules and
regulations thereunder during the applicable period in accordance with the
intended methods of disposition by SDC Prague thereof (other than pursuant
to any underwritten registration or underwritten offering) and cause the
Prospectus as so supplemented to be filed pursuant to Rule 424 under the
Securities Act;

               (b) use reasonable best efforts to obtain the prompt
withdrawal of any order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration
Statement, or the prompt lifting of any suspension of the qualification or
exemption from qualification of any of the Registrable Securities for sale
in any jurisdiction in the United States;

               (c) if requested by SDC Prague, furnish to counsel for SDC
Prague, without charge, one conformed copy of the Registration Statement as
declared effective by the SEC and of each post-effective amendment thereto,
in each case including financial statements and schedules and all exhibits
and reports incorporated or deemed to be incorporated therein by reference;
and such number of copies of the preliminary Prospectus, each amended
preliminary Prospectus, each final Prospectus and each post-effective
amendment or supplement thereto, as SDC Prague may reasonably request in
order to facilitate the disposition of the Registrable Securities covered
by the Registration Statement in conformity with the requirement of the
Securities Act (the Company hereby consenting to such use of such
documents);

               (d) except during any Delay Period described in Section 3
above, upon the occurrence of any event contemplated by Sections 3(a)(i)(A)
or 3(a)(ii) above, promptly prepare a supplement or post-effective
amendment to the Registration Statement or related Prospectus or any
document incorporated or deemed to be incorporated therein by reference or
file any other required document so that, as thereafter delivered to the
purchasers of the Registrable Securities being sold thereunder, such
Prospectus will not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit
to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to
make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they
were made, not misleading;

               (e) cause all Registrable Securities covered by the
Registration Statement to be listed on each securities exchange, if any, on
which similar securities issued by the Company are then listed; and

               (f) the Company will use its reasonable best efforts to
obtain all necessary state securities law or "Blue Sky" permits and
approvals required for the sale of the Registrable Securities.

5.   Indemnification and Contribution.

               (a) The Company will indemnify and hold harmless each holder
of Registrable Securities, each Person, if any, who controls such holder
within the meaning of either Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20
of the Exchange Act, and the agents, employees, officers and directors of
such holder and each such controlling Person, against any losses, claims,
damages or liabilities to which such indemnified party may become subject,
under the Securities Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims,
damages or liabilities (or any action in respect thereof) arise out of or
are based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a
material fact contained in the Registration Statement or Prospectus or any
amendment or supplement thereto, or arise out of or are based upon the
omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to
be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not
misleading, and will reimburse such indemnified parties for any legal or
other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating
or defending against such loss, claim, damage or liability as such expenses
are incurred; provided, however, that the Company shall not be liable in
any such case to the extent any such loss, claim, damage or liability
arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue
statement or omission or alleged omission made therein in reliance upon and
in conformity with information furnished in writing to the Company by such
indemnified party specifically for use in the preparation thereof provided,
further, that the Company shall not be liable to any indemnified party
hereunder with respect to the Registration Statement or Prospectus to the
extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability of such indemnified
party results solely from an untrue statement of a material fact contained
in, or the omission of a material fact from, the Registration Statement or
Prospectus, which untrue statement or omission was corrected in an amended
or supplemented Registration Statement or Prospectus, if the Person
alleging such loss, claim, damage or liability was not sent or given, at or
prior to the written confirmation of such sale, a copy of the amended or
supplemented Registration Statement or Prospectus if the Company had
previously furnished copies thereof to such indemnified party.

               (b) Each holder of Registrable Securities, severally and not
jointly, will indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each Person, if any,
who controls the Company within the meaning of either Section 15 of the
Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, and the agents,
employees, officers and directors of the Company and each such controlling
Person against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which each
such indemnified party may become subject, under the Securities Act or
otherwise, to the same extent as the foregoing indemnity from the Company,
but only insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities arise out
of or are based upon misstatements or alleged misstatements or omissions or
alleged omissions made in reliance upon and in conformity with information
furnished in writing by such holder to the Company specifically for use in
the preparation of the Registration Statement or Prospectus or any
amendment or supplement thereto and will reimburse such indemnified parties
for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection
with investigating or defending against such loss, claim, damage or
liability as such expenses are incurred. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary in this Agreement, any and all payments by all holders of
Registrable Securities, collectively, pursuant to this Section 5 shall be
limited to, in the aggregate, an amount equal to the proceeds from the sale
thereof.

               (c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party of notice
of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party shall notify the
indemnifying party in writing of the commencement thereof, but the omission
so to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability
that it may have to any indemnified party except to the extent the
indemnifying party shall have been prejudiced as a result of such failure.
In case any such action shall be brought against any indemnified party, and
it shall notify the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the
indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate in, and, to the extent
that it shall wish, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel
satisfactory to such indemnified party. In the event the indemnifying party
shall assume the defense thereof, any such indemnified party shall have the
right to employ separate counsel in such action and to participate in the
defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the
expense of such indemnified party unless (i) the indemnifying party has
agreed to pay such fees and expenses or (ii) the named parties to any such
action or proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both such
indemnified party and the indemnifying party, and such indemnified party
shall have been advised by counsel that there may be one or more legal
defenses available to such indemnified party which are different from or
additional to those available to the indemnifying party (in which case, if
such indemnified party notifies the indemnifying party in writing that it
elects to employ separate counsel at the expense of the indemnifying party,
the indemnifying party shall not have the right to assume the defense of
such action or proceeding on behalf of such indemnified party, it being
understood, however, that the indemnifying party shall not, in connection
with any one such action or proceeding or separate but substantially
similar or related actions or proceedings in the same jurisdiction arising
out of the same general allegations or circumstances, be liable for the
fees and expense of more than one separate firm of attorneys at any time
for all such indemnified parties). Any such fees and expenses payable by
the indemnifying party shall be paid to the indemnified party entitled
thereto as incurred by such indemnified party. The indemnifying party shall
not be liable for any settlement of any such action or proceeding effected
without its written consent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld), but
if settled with its written consent, or if there be a final judgment for
the plaintiff in any such action or proceeding, the indemnifying party
agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each such indemnified party from and
against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement or judgment.

               (d) The obligations of the Company and the holders of
Registrable Securities under this Section 5 shall be in addition to any
liability that such Persons may otherwise have.

6.   Registration Expenses.
     ---------------------
               Except as provided in the last sentence of this Section 6
and except as provided in Section 5, whether or not the Registration
Statement becomes effective, the Company shall pay all costs, fees and
expenses incident to the Company's performance of or compliance with this
Agreement including, without limitation, (i) all SEC registration and
filing fees, (ii) fees and expenses of compliance with securities or Blue
Sky laws, (iii) fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company and (iv)
fees and disbursements of all independent certified public accountants of
the Company and all other Persons retained by the Company in connection
with the Registration Statement. In all cases, SDC Prague will be
responsible for, if applicable, underwriters discounts, selling commissions
and fees and disbursements of counsel for SDC Prague with respect to the
Registrable Securities being sold by it and the Company will have no
obligation to pay any such amounts.
