         WHEREAS, the Partnership wishes to retain PFPC to provide
administration, accounting and investor services provided for herein, and PFPC
wishes to furnish such services.

1.       DEFINITIONS.  AS USED IN THIS AGREEMENT:

         (a)  "Authorized Person" means any officer of the Partnership and any
              other person duly authorized by the Partnership's General Partner
              to give Oral Instructions and Written Instructions on behalf of
              the Partnership. An Authorized Person's scope of authority may be
              limited by setting forth such limitation in a written document
              signed by both parties hereto.

         (b)  "General Partner" and "Limited Partners" shall have the same

              the by-laws, confidential memorandum, partnership agreement, trust
              deed, partnership or other documents constituting the Partnership.

         (d)  "Oral Instructions" mean oral instructions received by PFPC from
              an Authorized Person or from a person reasonably believed by PFPC
              to be an Authorized Person.

                                                                               1
<PAGE>
              PFPC may, in its reasonable discretion in each separate instance,
              consider and rely upon instructions it receives from an Authorized
              Person via electronic mail as Oral Instructions.

         (e)  "Written Instructions" mean (i) written instructions signed by an
              Authorized Person and received by PFPC or (ii) trade instructions
              transmitted (and received by PFPC) by means of an electronic
              transaction reporting system access to which requires use of a
              password or other authorized identifier. The instructions may be
              delivered by hand, mail, tested telegram, cable, telex or
              facsimile sending device.

2.       APPOINTMENT. The Partnership hereby appoints PFPC to provide
         administration, accounting and investor services, in accordance with
         the terms set forth in this Agreement. PFPC accepts such appointment
         and agrees to furnish such services.

3.       COMPLIANCE WITH RULES AND REGULATIONS.

         PFPC shall comply with the applicable requirements of any laws, rules
         and regulations of governmental authorities having jurisdiction with
         respect to the duties to be performed by PFPC hereunder.

4.       INSTRUCTIONS.

         (a)  Unless otherwise provided in this Agreement, PFPC shall act only
              upon Oral Instructions or Written Instructions.

         (b)  PFPC shall be entitled to rely upon any Oral Instruction or
              Written Instruction it receives from an Authorized Person (or from
              a person reasonably believed by PFPC to be an Authorized Person)
              pursuant to this Agreement. PFPC may assume in its reasonable
              business judgment that any Oral Instruction or Written Instruction
              received hereunder is not in any way inconsistent with the
              provisions

                                                                               2

              of Organizational Documents or this Agreement or of any vote,
              resolution or proceeding of the Partnership's General Partner,
              unless and until PFPC receives Written Instructions to the
              contrary.

         (c)  The Partnership agrees to forward to PFPC Written Instructions
              confirming Oral Instructions (except where such Oral Instructions
              are given by PFPC or its affiliates) so that PFPC receives the
              Written Instructions as promptly as practicable and in any event
              by the close of business on the day after such Oral Instructions
              are received. The fact that such confirming Written Instructions
              are not received by PFPC or differ from the Oral Instructions
              shall in no way invalidate the transactions or enforceability of
              the transactions authorized by the Oral Instructions or PFPC's
              ability to rely upon such Oral Instructions.

5.       RIGHT TO RECEIVE ADVICE.

         (a)  Advice of the Partnership. If PFPC is in doubt as to any action it
              should or should not take, PFPC may request directions or advice,
              including Oral Instructions or Written Instructions, from the
              Partnership.

         (b)  Protection of PFPC. PFPC shall be indemnified by the Partnership
              and without liability for any action PFPC takes or does not take
              in reliance upon authorized directions or advice or Oral
              Instructions or Written Instructions PFPC receives from or on
              behalf of the Partnership and which PFPC believes, in good faith
              and in its reasonable business judgment, to be consistent with
              those directions or advice and Oral Instructions or Written
              Instructions. Nothing in this section shall be construed so as to
              impose an obligation upon PFPC to seek such directions or advice
              or Oral Instructions or Written Instructions.

                                                                               3

              have access to such books and records at all times during PFPC's

              consequential, special or indirect losses or damages, provided

              government fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering
              activities, U.S. Federal law requires each financial institution

              each person who initially opens an account with that financial
              institution on or after October 1, 2003. Certain of PFPC's

              of policy, request (or may have already requested) the

                                                                              15

              Partnership's name, address and taxpayer identification number or
              other government-issued identification number, and, if such party
              is a natural person, that party's date of birth. PFPC may also ask
              (and may have already asked) for additional identifying
              information, and PFPC may take steps (and may have already taken
              steps) to verify the authenticity and accuracy of these data
              elements.

         IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Agreement to be
executed as of the day and year first above written.

REGISTRATION RIGHTS

     2.1 Demand Registration.

          2.1.1 Request for Registration.

      (a) At any time (subject to the termination provisions in Section 3.1 of this
Agreement) after the initial issuance of shares of Common Stock to the Sellers
pursuant to the Purchase Agreement (the “Effective Date”), any Holder or
Holders may request, in writing (the “Demand Request”), that the Company
shall file, and cause to become effective, in accordance with the terms hereof, a
Shelf Registration Statement under the Securities Act covering all or part of its
or their Registrable Shares. The Demand Request shall not be effective hereunder
unless the Registrable Shares proposed to be sold by the Holders requesting the
Demand Registration (the “Requesting Holders,” which term shall include
parties deemed “Requesting Holders” pursuant to Section 2.1.3 hereof)
represent, in the aggregate, more than twenty-five percent (25%) of the total
number of Registrable Shares held by all Holders.

      (b) The Demand Request shall specify the number of Registrable Shares proposed
to be sold. Subject to Section 2.4, upon receipt of the Demand Request,
the Company shall file with the SEC, promptly but no later than 45 days after the
Demand Request is delivered to the Company (the “Required Filing Date”), a
Shelf Registration Statement (the “Demand Registration”) covering the
resale to the public by the Holders of the Registrable Shares from time to time in
accordance with the methods of distribution set forth in the Shelf Registration
Statement. Except as otherwise provided herein, the Company shall use its
reasonable best efforts to cause the Demand Registration to be declared effective
by the SEC as promptly as practicable after such filing; provided,
however, that the Company need effect only one Demand Registration

4

 

pursuant to Demand Requests made by Holders of Registrable Shares pursuant to
Section 2.1.1(a).

          2.1.2 Effective Registration and Expenses. A registration will not count as a Demand
Registration until it has become effective (unless the Requesting Holders withdraw all their
Registrable Shares and the Company has performed its obligations hereunder in all material
respects, in which case such demand will count as a Demand Registration unless the Requesting
Holders pay all Registration Expenses, as hereinafter defined, in connection with such withdrawn
registration); provided, however, that if, after it has become effective, such
Shelf Registration Statement does not remain effective for a period of two (2) years (plus any
extension as provided in Section 2.4) after its effective date or such shorter period after which
all Registrable Securities included in such registration have been sold, if earlier, such
registration will be deemed not to have been effected and will not count as a Demand Registration.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if all such Registrable Shares are sold pursuant to Section
2.2, then no Demand Registration will be available to the Holders.

          2.1.3 Rights of Nonrequesting Holders. Upon receipt of the Demand Request, the
Company shall promptly (but in any event within fifteen (15) days) give written notice of such
proposed Demand Registration to all other Holders, who shall have the right, exercisable by written
notice to the Company within fifteen (15) days of their receipt of the Company’s notice, to elect
to include in such Demand Registration such portion of their Registrable Shares as they may
request. All Holders requesting to have their Registrable Shares included in a Demand Registration
in accordance with the preceding sentence shall be deemed to be “Requesting Holders” for purposes
of this Section 2.1.

     2.2 Piggyback Registrations.

          2.2.1 Right to Piggyback. After the Effective Date, each time the Company proposes to
register any of its equity securities (other than pursuant to an Excluded Registration) under the
Securities Act for sale to the public (whether for the account of the Company or the account of any
securityholder of the Company) and the form of registration statement to be used permits the
registration of Registrable Shares, the Company shall give prompt written notice to each Holder of
Registrable Shares (which notice shall be given not less than thirty (30) days prior to the
effective date of the Company’s registration statement), which notice shall offer each such Holder
the opportunity to include any or all of its or his Registrable Shares in such registration
statement, subject to the limitations contained in Section 2.2.2 hereof. Each Holder who
desires to have its or his Registrable Shares included in such registration statement shall so
advise the Company in writing (stating the number of shares desired to be registered) within twenty
(20) days after the date of such notice from the Company. Any Holder shall have the right to
withdraw such Holder’s request for inclusion of such Holder’s Registrable Shares in any
registration statement pursuant to this Section 2.2.1 by giving written notice to the
Company of such withdrawal prior to the effective date of the Company’s registration statement.
Subject to Section 2.2.2 below, the Company shall include in such registration statement
all such Registrable Shares so requested to be

included therein; provided, however, that the Company may at any time withdraw
or cease proceeding with any such registration of Registrable Shares if it shall at the same time
withdraw or cease proceeding with the registration of all other equity securities originally
proposed to be registered. In such case, the Company shall be relieved of its obligation to
register any Registrable Shares in connection with such registration.

          2.2.2 Priority on Piggyback Registrations. If the managing underwriter advises the
Company that the amount of securities requested to be included in the Registration Statement
exceeds the amount which can be sold in such offering without causing a Material Adverse Effect or
if required by any other registration rights agreements to which the Company is a party on the date
hereof, then the Company will include in such registration statement the amount of securities which
the Company is so advised can be sold in the offering in the following priority: (1) first, all
securities proposed by the Company to be sold for its own account; (2) second, the amount of
securities requested by third parties to be registered pursuant to demand registration rights; and
(3) third, all other securities of the Company duly requested to be included in such registration
statement, including any Registrable Shares requested to be included in the Registration Statement
by Holders, and such shares pursuant to this clause (3) shall be allocated pro rata among the
Requesting Holders and other requesting holders on the basis of the number of shares requested to
be included in such registration by each such holder. No Person may participate in any
registration statement hereunder unless such Person (x) agrees to sell such person’s Registrable
Shares on the basis provided in any underwriting arrangements approved by the Company and (y)
completes and executes all questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities, underwriting agreements
and other documents, each in customary form, reasonably required under the terms of such
underwriting arrangements; provided, however, that no such Person shall be required
to make any representations or warranties in connection with any such registration other than
representations and warranties as to (i) such Person’s ownership of his or its Registrable Shares
to be sold or transferred free and clear of all liens, claims, and encumbrances, (ii) such Person’s
power and authority to effect such transfer, and (iii) such matters pertaining to compliance with
securities laws as may be reasonably requested and such other customary matters; provided,
further, however, that the obligation of such Person to indemnify pursuant to any such
underwriting arrangements shall be several, not joint and several, among such Persons selling
Registrable Shares, and the liability of each such Person will be in proportion to the number of
Registrable Shares included in such registration, and provided, further, that such
liability will be limited to the net amount received by such Person from the sale of his or its
Registrable Shares pursuant to such registration.

     2.3 Registration Procedures.

          2.3.1 Demand Registration. Whenever any Holder has requested a Demand Registration,
the Company will use its reasonable best efforts to effect the registration and the sale of such
Registrable Shares in accordance with this Agreement, and pursuant thereto the Company will as
expeditiously as possible:

6

 

      (i) prepare and file with the SEC a Shelf Registration Statement under the
Securities Act with respect to such Registrable Shares and use its reasonable best
efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective;

      (ii) prepare and file with the SEC such amendments, post-effective
amendments, and supplements to such Shelf Registration Statement as may be
necessary to keep such Shelf Registration Statement effective for the period set
forth in Section 2.1.2 and comply with the provisions of the Securities Act
with respect to the disposition of all securities covered by such registration
statement during such period in accordance with this Agreement (including
prospectus supplements with respect to sales of Registrable Shares from time to
time pursuant to Rule 415 promulgated under the Securities Act);

      (iii) furnish to each Holder of Registrable Shares such number of copies of
such registration statement, each amendment and supplement thereto, the prospectus
included in such registration statement (including each preliminary prospectus),
any documents incorporated by reference therein and such other documents as such
Holder may reasonably request in order to facilitate the disposition of the
Registrable Shares owned by such Holder (it being understood that, subject to
Section 2.4 and the requirements of the Securities Act and applicable state
securities laws, the Company consents to the use of the prospectus and any
amendment or supplement thereto by each Holder in connection with the offering and
sale of the Registrable Shares covered by the registration statement of which such
prospectus, amendment or supplement is a part);

      (iv) use its reasonable best efforts to register or qualify such Registrable
Shares under such other securities or blue sky laws of such jurisdictions as the
Holders of a majority of such Registrable Shares may reasonably request; use its
commercially reasonable efforts to keep each such registration or qualification (or
exemption therefrom) effective during the period in which such registration
statement is required to be kept effective; and do any and all other acts and
things which may be reasonably necessary or advisable to enable each Holder to
consummate the disposition of the Registrable Shares owned by such Holder in such
jurisdictions (provided, however, 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 subparagraph or (B) consent to
general service of process or taxation in any such jurisdiction);

      (v) promptly notify each Holder and (if requested by any such Person) confirm
such notice in writing (A) when a prospectus or any prospectus supplement or
post-effective amendment has been filed and, with respect to a registration
statement or any post-effective amendment, when the same has become effective, (B)
of the issuance by any state

7

 

securities or other regulatory authority of any order suspending the
qualification or exemption from qualification of any of the Registrable Shares
under state securities or “blue sky” laws or the initiation of any proceedings for
that purpose, and (C) of the happening of any event during the period in which such
registration statement is effective which makes any statement made in a
registration statement or related prospectus untrue or which requires the making of
any changes in such registration statement or prospectus so that they will not
contain any 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, as promptly as practicable thereafter, prepare and file with the
SEC and furnish a supplement or amendment to such prospectus so that, as thereafter
deliverable to the purchasers of such Registrable Shares, such prospectus will not
contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit a material fact necessary
to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were
made, not misleading (in the case of (B) or (C), such notice shall be accompanied
by an instruction to suspend use pursuant to Section 2.4);

      (vi) make generally available to the Company’s securityholders and the
Holders an earnings statement satisfying the provisions of Section 11(a) of the
Securities Act as promptly as practicable after the end of the twelve (12) month
period beginning with the first day of the Company’s first fiscal quarter
commencing after the effective date of a registration statement, which earnings
statement shall cover said twelve (12) month period, and which requirement will be
deemed to be satisfied if the Company timely files complete and accurate
information on Forms 10-Q, 10-K and 8-K under the Exchange Act and otherwise
complies with Rule 158 under the Securities Act;

      (vii) cooperate with the Holders to facilitate the timely preparation and
delivery of certificates (which shall not bear any restrictive legends unless
required under applicable law) representing securities sold under any registration
statement, and enable such securities to be in such denominations and registered in
such names as such Holders may request and keep available and make available to the
Company’s transfer agent prior to the effectiveness of such registration statement
a supply of such certificates;

      (viii) provide a transfer agent and registrar for all Registrable Shares
registered hereunder and provide a CUSIP number for the Registrable Shares included
in any registration statement not later than the effective date of such
registration statement;

      (ix) during the period when the prospectus is required to be delivered under
the Securities Act, promptly file all documents required to

8

 

be filed with the SEC pursuant to Sections 13(a), 13(c), 14 or 15(d) of the
Exchange Act;

      (x) notify each Holder of Registrable Shares promptly of any request by the
SEC for the amending or supplementing of such registration statement or prospectus
or for additional information; and

      (xi) advise each Holder of such Registrable Shares, promptly after it shall
receive notice or obtain knowledge thereof, of (A) the issuance of any stop order
by the SEC suspending the effectiveness of such registration statement or (B) the
initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose and promptly use its
best efforts to prevent the issuance of any stop order or to obtain its withdrawal
at the earliest possible moment if such stop order should be issued.

          2.3.2 Piggyback Registration. In the event that any Holder participates in any
registration and offering pursuant to Section 2.2.1, the Company shall provide each such
Holder with copies of all statements, prospectuses, opinions, comfort letters and other documents
provided to the other participants in such registration and offering and shall afford such Holder
such reasonable rights (that are not inconsistent with this Agreement) as is otherwise necessary
for such Holder to participate in the offering.

     2.4 Suspension of Dispositions. Each Holder agrees by acquisition of any Registrable
Shares that, upon receipt of any notice (a “Suspension Notice”) from the Company (i) of the
happening of any event of the kind described in Section 2.3.1(v)(B) or (C) or Section
2.3.1(xi)(B); or (ii) that if the filing of a registration statement or the initial or
continued effectiveness thereof would require the Company to disclose a material financing,
acquisition or other corporate transaction, which disclosure the Board of Directors of the Company
shall have determined in good faith is not in the best interests of the Company and its
stockholders (provided that the period set forth in Section 2.1.2 shall be extended by the
number of days of any such suspension pursuant to this Section 2.4); such Holder will
forthwith discontinue disposition of Registrable Shares until such Holder’s receipt of the copies
of the supplemented or amended prospectus, or until it is advised in writing (the “Advice”)
by the Company that the use of the prospectus may be resumed, and has received copies of any
additional or supplemental filings which are incorporated by reference in the prospectus, and, if
so directed by the Company, such Holder will deliver to the Company all copies, other than
permanent file copies then in such Holder’s possession, of the prospectus covering such Registrable
Shares current at the time of receipt of such notice; provided that, with respect
to clause (ii) above, such periods shall in no event continue, in the aggregate, for more than 120
days in any twelve month period. In the event the Company shall give any such notice, the time
period regarding the effectiveness of registration statements set forth in Section 2.3(ii)
hereof shall be extended by the number of days during the period from and including the date of the
giving of the Suspension Notice to and including the date when each Holder of Registrable Shares
covered by such registration statement shall have received the copies of the supplemented or
amended prospectus or the Advice. The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts and
take such actions as are reasonably necessary to

9

 

render the Advice as promptly as practicable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to
the Shelf Registration Statement the Company may suspend use of such Shelf Registration Statement
during any period if each of the Company and the holders of two-thirds of the Registrable Shares
covered by such registration statement consent in writing to such suspension for such period.

     2.5 Registration Expenses. All expenses incident to the Company’s performance of or
compliance with this Article 2 including, without limitation, all registration and filing
fees, fees and expenses of compliance with securities or “blue sky” laws (including reasonable fees
and disbursements of counsel in connection with “blue sky” qualifications of the Registrable
Shares), rating agency fees, printing expenses (including expenses of printing certificates for the
Registrable Shares and of printing prospectuses if the printing of prospectuses is requested by a
Holder of Registrable Shares), messenger and delivery expenses, the Company’s internal expenses
(including, without limitation, all salaries and expenses of its officers and employees performing
legal or accounting duties), the fees and expenses incurred in connection with any listing of the
Registrable Shares, fees and expenses of counsel for the Company and its independent certified
public accountants (including the expenses of any special audit or “cold comfort” letters required
by or incident to such performance), securities acts liability insurance (if the Company elects to
obtain such insurance), and the fees and expenses of other persons retained by the Company and
reasonable fees and expenses of one firm of counsel for the Holders (which shall be selected by the
Holders of a majority of the Registrable Shares being included in any particular registration
statement) (all such expenses being herein called “Registration Expenses”) will be borne by
the Company whether or not any registration statement becomes effective; provided,
however, that in no event shall Registration Expenses include any underwriting discounts,
commissions, or fees attributable to the sale of the Registrable Shares or any counsel (except as
provided above), accountants, or other persons retained or employed by the Holders, which expenses
shall be borne by the selling Holders pro rata on the basis of the number of shares so registered.

     2.6 Indemnification.

          2.6.1 Indemnification by the Company. The Company agrees to indemnify and reimburse,
to the fullest extent permitted by law, each Holder of Registrable Shares, and each of its
employees, advisors, agents, representatives, partners, officers, and directors and each Person who
controls such Holder (within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act) and any agent
or investment advisor thereof (collectively, the “Holder Affiliates”) against any and all
losses, claims, damages, liabilities, and expenses, joint or several (“Losses”) (including,
without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements except as limited by Section
2.6.3) based upon, arising out of or resulting from any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a
material fact contained in any registration statement, prospectus, or preliminary prospectus or any
amendment thereof or supplement thereto, or any omission or alleged omission of a material fact
required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading and the
Company will reimburse such indemnified party for all costs and expenses (including reasonable fees
and disbursements of counsel) as may be reasonably

10

 

incurred in investigating, preparing, or defending against any Loss or proceeding by any
governmental agency or body based upon, arising out of, related to or resulting from any such
untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission; except insofar as any such
statements (i) are made in reliance upon information furnished in writing to the Company by such
Holder or any Holder Affiliate for use therein or (ii) arise from such Holder’s or any Holder
Affiliate’s failure to deliver a copy of the registration statement or prospectus or any amendments
or supplements thereto after the Company has furnished such Holder or Holder Affiliate with a
sufficient number of copies of the same. The reimbursements required by this Section 2.6.1
will be made by periodic payments during the course of the investigation or defense, as and when
bills are received or expenses incurred.

          2.6.2 Indemnification by Holders. In connection with any registration statement in
which a Holder of Registrable Shares is participating, each such Holder will furnish to the Company
in writing such information and affidavits as the Company reasonably requests for use in connection
with any such registration statement or prospectus and, to the fullest extent permitted by law,
each such Holder will indemnify the Company and its directors, officers, employees and agents and
each Person who controls the Company (within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act)
against any and all Losses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and
disbursements except as limited by Section 2.6.3) based upon, arising out of or resulting
from any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any
registration statement, prospectus, or any preliminary prospectus or any amendment thereof or
supplement thereto or any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated
therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, but only to the extent that
such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission is contained in
any information or affidavit so furnished in writing by such Holder or any of its Holder Affiliates
specifically for inclusion in the registration statement; provided that the obligation to
indemnify will be several, not joint and several, among such Holders of Registrable Shares, and,
provided, further, that such liability will be limited to, the net amount received
by such Holder from the sale of Registrable Shares pursuant to such registration statement;
provided, however, that such Holder of Registrable Shares shall not be liable in
any such case to the extent that prior to the filing of any such registration statement or
prospectus or amendment thereof or supplement thereto, such Holder has furnished in writing to the
Company information expressly for use in such registration statement or prospectus or any amendment
thereof or supplement thereto which corrected or made not misleading information previously
furnished to the Company.

          2.6.3 Notices of Claims. Any Person entitled to indemnification hereunder will (A)
give prompt written notice to the indemnifying party of any claim with respect to which it seeks
indemnification (provided that the failure to give such notice shall not relieve the indemnifying
party of its obligations under this Section 2.6 except to the extent that the indemnifying
party is actually and materially prejudiced by such failure to give prompt notice) and (B) unless
in such indemnified party’s reasonable judgment a conflict of interest between such indemnified and
indemnifying parties may exist with respect to such claim, permit such indemnifying party to assume
the defense of

11

 

such claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party; provided,
however, that any person entitled to indemnification hereunder shall have the right to
employ separate counsel and to participate in the defense of such claim, but the fees and expenses
of such counsel shall be at the expense of such person unless (X) the indemnifying party has agreed
to pay such fees or expenses, or (Y) the indemnifying party shall have failed to assume the defense
of such claim and employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to such person. If such defense is not
assumed by the indemnifying party as permitted hereunder, the indemnifying party will not be
subject to any liability for any settlement made by the indemnified party without its consent (but
such consent will not be unreasonably withheld). If such defense is assumed by the indemnifying
party pursuant to the provisions hereof, such indemnifying party shall not settle or otherwise
compromise the applicable claim unless (1) such settlement or compromise contains a full and
unconditional release of the indemnified party from all Losses from the claimant or (2) the
indemnified party otherwise consents in writing. An indemnifying party who is not entitled to, or
elects not to, assume the defense of a claim will not be obligated to pay the fees and expenses of
more than one counsel for all parties indemnified by such indemnifying party with respect to such
claim, unless in the reasonable judgment of any indemnified party, a conflict of interest may exist
between such indemnified party and any other of such indemnified parties with respect to such
claim, in which event the indemnifying party shall be obligated to pay the reasonable fees and
disbursements of such additional counsel or counsels.

Each party hereto agrees that, if for any reason the indemnification provisions contemplated by
Section 2.6.1 or Section 2.6.2 are unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless
an indemnified party in respect of any Losses, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the
amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, liabilities,
or expenses (or actions in respect thereof) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the
relative fault of the indemnifying party and the indemnified party in connection with the actions
which resulted in the Losses. The relative fault of such indemnifying party and indemnified party
shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue
statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to
information supplied by such indemnifying party or indemnified party, and the parties’ relative
intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or
omission. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 2.6.4, no Holder shall be
required to contribute an amount greater than the dollar amount by which the net proceeds received
by such Holder with respect to the sale of any Registrable Shares exceeds the amount of damages
which such Holder has otherwise been required to pay by reason of any and all untrue or alleged
untrue statements of material fact or omissions or alleged omissions of material fact made in any
registration statement, prospectus or preliminary prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement
thereto related to such sale of Registrable Shares. 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. The Holders’
obligations in this Section 2.6.4 to contribute shall be several in proportion to the
amount of Registrable Shares registered by them and not joint.

12

 

          2.6.4 The indemnification and contribution provided for under this Agreement will remain in
full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the indemnified party
or any officer, director, or controlling Person of such indemnified party and will survive the
transfer of securities.

     2.7 Current Public Information. With a view to making available to the Holders the
benefits of certain rules and regulations of the SEC that may at any time permit the sale of
securities to the public without registration, the Company agrees to use its best efforts to:

          (i) make and keep public information available, as those terms are defined in Rule 144 under
the Securities Act, at all times after the effective date that the Company becomes subject to the
reporting requirements of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act;

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

          (iii) furnish to any Holder, so long as such Holder owns any Registrable Shares, upon request
by such Holder, (i) a written statement by the Company that it has complied with the reporting
requirements of Rule 144 (at any time after ninety (90) days after the effective date of the first
registration statement filed by the Company for an offering of its securities to the general
public), and of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act (at any time after it has become subject to
such reporting requirements), (ii) a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of the
Company and (iii) such other reports and documents of the Company and other information in the
possession of or reasonably obtainable by the Company as a Holder may reasonably request in
availing itself of any rule or regulation of the SEC allowing a Holder to sell any such securities
without registration.

ARTICLE 3

TERMINATION

     3.1 Termination. The provisions of this Agreement shall terminate on the earlier to

          (iii) the date when the Closing has occurred;

          (iv) the Purchase Agreement has been terminated and a final determination has been made by a
court of competent jurisdiction or the Sellers have otherwise agreed in writing that no termination
fee is payable under the Purchase Agreement;

13

 

provided, however, that the rights and obligations hereunder of each Holder shall
terminate with respect to such party at such time when neither it nor any of its respective
affiliates holds Registrable Securities; provided further that, such
termination shall not relieve any party of any indemnification or contribution obligations
contained herein.
