                     PURCHASE AND SALE OF NOTES AND WARRANTS

         2.01 Purchase and Sale of Notes and Warrants.

         (a) Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, on the Closing Date (i)
the Company will issue to the Purchasers, and each Purchaser will, severally and
not jointly, acquire from the Company, Notes in the aggregate principal amounts
set forth opposite their names in Schedule 2.01(a) under the heading "Aggregate
Principal Amount of Notes" and (ii) the Company shall issue to each Purchaser,
and each Purchaser shall acquire from the Company, the Initial Warrants
exercisable for the numbers of shares of Fully Diluted Common Stock (after
taking into effect the issuance of the Initial Warrants) set forth opposite
their names in Schedule 2.01(a) under the heading "Initial Warrants." The Notes
shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit A attached hereto, and the Initial
Warrants shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit B-1 attached hereto, in
each case, as appropriately completed in conformity herewith.

         (b) If on any of the dates set forth on Schedule 2.01(b) under the
heading "Adjustment Date" (each such date, an "Adjustment Date") any principal,
interest, or any other amount due under the Notes shall not have been
irrevocably paid in full, then, on any such date, the Company shall issue to
each Purchaser (or, if the Initial Warrants or a portion thereof have been
transferred in accordance with the provisions thereof and of this Agreement, to
the Holder holding such Initial Warrants), and each Purchaser (or each such
Holder) shall acquire from the Company, Adjustment Warrants exercisable for the
number of shares of Fully Diluted Common Stock (the "Aggregate Number", as
defined in the Form of Warrant attached hereto as Exhibit B-2) which, on such
Adjustment Date, would constitute the percentage of all issued and outstanding
Fully Diluted Common Stock of the Company (after taking into effect the issuance
of such Adjustment Warrants) set forth in Schedule 2.01(b) opposite such
Purchaser's name under the heading "Adjustment Percentage" (or, in the case of a
Holder other than a Purchaser, the applicable pro rata portion thereof) (each
such percentage, an "Adjustment Percentage"); provided, however that in the
event the Notes are redeemed in part but not in whole on or before an Adjustment
Date, the Adjustment Percentage applicable to Adjustment Warrants issued on or
after such partial redemption shall be equal to the applicable Adjustment
Percentage set forth on Schedule 2.01(b) multiplied by a fraction, the numerator
of which shall be the principal balance of

                                       11
<PAGE>   12
the Notes (including any Pik Notes, as such term is defined in Exhibit A) as of
the Adjustment Date in question and the denominator of which shall be
$32,500,000; and provided, further, that, in the event that the proposed Holder
thereof notifies the Company and any Purchaser who is a Holder at such time (it
being understood that the failure by such proposed Holder to notify any such
Purchaser shall not in any way prejudice its rights hereunder) in writing of a
Regulatory Constraint in connection with the pending issuance of an Adjustment
Warrant and requests that the Capital Stock issuable upon the exercise of such
Adjustment Warrant be Junior Preferred Stock, the Company shall expeditiously
take all necessary action to authorize such Junior Preferred Stock, including
filing appropriate documents with the Delaware Secretary of State, and shall
issue to such proposed Holder (and to any other proposed Holder who so elects in
writing) such Adjustment Warrant as a warrant to purchase shares of Junior
Preferred Stock in a number, which if converted to Common Stock pursuant to the
terms of the Junior Preferred Stock, would constitute the applicable Adjustment
Percentage and with such other conforming changes as are appropriate for the
Holder thereof to realize the benefits originally intended hereunder. In the
Adjustment Warrants, the Exercise Price initially will be the Current Market
Price (as such capitalized terms are defined in the Form of Adjustment Warrant
attached hereto as Exhibit B-2) determined as of the Business Day immediately
preceding the Adjustment Date and will be subject to adjustment as provided in
Section 2 of the Form of Adjustment Warrant attached hereto as Exhibit B-2;
provided, however, in the case of an Adjustment Warrant to purchase Junior
Preferred Stock, the aggregate initial Exercise Price for all the shares of
Junior Preferred Stock subject to such Adjustment Warrant shall equal the
aggregate of such Current Market Price of all the shares of Common Stock into
which such shares of Junior Preferred Stock would be convertible. The Adjustment
Warrants shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit B-2 attached hereto, as
appropriately completed in conformity herewith.

         2.02 Purchase Price. The aggregate purchase price of the Notes and the
Warrants shall be Thirty-Two Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars
($32,500,000.00) which shall be payable by the Purchasers on the Closing Date as
attached in Schedule 2.01(a). The Company hereby acknowledges and agrees that
the purchase price paid by the Purchasers on the Closing Date is an aggregate
purchase price for the Notes and the Warrants, and that no further payments will
be made by the Purchasers or by any other Holder in consideration for any
issuance of the Adjustment Warrants.

         2.03 Original Issue Discount. The Company and the Purchasers
acknowledge that under the regulations of the United States Department of
Treasury, the issuance of the Notes and the Warrants for an aggregate, combined
purchase price will result in the creation of "original issue discount" on the
Notes equal to the value of the Warrants. After taking into account all relevant
factors (including the general condition of the financial markets at this time,
the exercise price for shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the
Warrants, the nature of the rights provided for in the Warrants and all other
matters concerning the transactions contemplated by this Agreement), the Company
and the Purchasers agree that the aggregate original issue discount on the Notes
(i.e., the aggregate value of the Warrants) is $5,600,000. Neither the Company
nor the Purchasers will take any position for United States federal income tax
purposes that is inconsistent with the provisions of this Section 2.03

         2.04     Closing.

         (a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the issuance
and purchase of the Notes and the Initial Warrants shall take place at the

Phoenix Plaza, 2929 North Central Avenue, Phoenix, Arizona 85012-2794, effective

January 3, 2000. At the Closing, the Company shall execute and deliver to each
Purchaser the Notes in the principal amounts and the Initial Warrants
exercisable for the number of shares of Common Stock set forth opposite such
Purchaser's name in Schedule 2.01(a) against delivery to the Company by each
Purchaser of the purchase price therefor, in the amount set forth opposite such
Purchaser's name on Schedule 2.01(a) under the heading "Total Purchase Price,"
by wire transfer of immediately available funds or by delivery of cashier's or
certified check; provided, however, that, subject to the occurrence of the
Closing on or before January 3, 2000, GE shall deliver or cause to be delivered
its purchase price to the Company by wire transfer of immediately available
funds on January 3, 2000. The Closing shall be deemed to have occurred on
December 31, 1999 if all conditions set forth in Article III have been satisfied
or waived on December 31, 1999 other than GE's delivery of the purchase price
pursuant to the proviso of the second sentence of this Section 2.04(a). The
Company and the Purchasers hereby agree that the Closing shall not occur with
respect to any Purchaser, and therefore, such Purchaser shall have no
obligations hereunder, unless and until the Closing occurs with respect to all
Purchasers.

                  (b) The issuance and purchase of any Adjustment Warrants, if
any, required to be issued by Section 2.01(b) shall be consummated by delivery
by the Company to the applicable Holder of such Adjustment Warrants on a
Business Day no later than five (5) Business Days after the date such Adjustment
Warrants are required to be issued as set forth in Schedule 2.01(b) at the
offices of such Holder at the address set forth in Section 14.02 hereof, or at
such other time and place as the Company and such Holder may agree in writing.

1999 (after taking into effect the issuance of Common Stock in connection with
the Acquisition and the issuance of the Initial Warrants). The number of shares
of Common Stock or Junior Preferred Stock (if converted to Common Stock pursuant
to the terms thereof), as the case may be, subject to issuance upon exercise of
each Adjustment Warrant, will represent, when each such Adjustment Warrant is
issued, a percentage of shares of Common Stock of the Company equal to the
Adjustment Percentage set forth on Schedule 2.01(b) for such Adjustment Warrant
on a Fully Diluted basis as of the Adjustment Date set forth in Schedule 2.01(b)
for such Adjustment Warrant.

         5.12 Investments. Set forth in Schedule 5.12 is a complete and correct
list of all Investments (other than Permitted Investments) held by the Company
in any Person on the date hereof and, for each such Investment, (x) the identity
of the Person or Persons holding such Investment and (y) the nature of such
Investment. Except as disclosed in Schedule 5.12, the Company owns, free and
clear of all Liens, all such Investments.

         5.13 Private Offering. No form of general solicitation or general
advertising was used by the Company or its representatives in connection with
the offer or sale of the Notes or the

                                       19
<PAGE>   20
Warrants. Assuming the truth of the representations made in Article VI, no
registration of the Notes or the Warrants pursuant to the provisions of the
Securities Act or any state securities or "blue sky" laws will be required by
the offer, sale or issuance of the Notes, the Warrants or the shares of Common
Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants.

         5.14 Broker's, Finder's or Similar Fees. There are no brokerage
commissions, finder's fees or similar fees or commissions payable in connection
with the transactions contemplated hereby or any other Transaction Document to
which the Company is a party, based on any agreement, arrangement or
understanding with the Company or any action taken by the Company, other than
the fees payable pursuant to Section 14.7.

         5.15 Contractual Obligations, etc. Except for the Transaction
Documents, Schedule 5.15 hereto sets forth a complete and accurate list of all
material Contractual Obligations (including the Contractual Obligations acquired
or assumed in connection with the Acquisition) of the Company and its
Subsidiaries. Each such Contractual Obligation (including Contractual
Obligations evidencing Indebtedness and Liens) is, and after giving effect to
the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents
will be, in full force and effect in accordance with the terms thereof and there
are no material defaults by the Company or its Subsidiaries or, to the best
knowledge of the Company and its Subsidiaries, by any other party under any such
Contractual Obligation, except for such defaults that are not reasonably
expected (individually or in the aggregate) to have a Material Adverse Effect.

         5.16     Financial Statements.

         (a) Schedule 5.16 hereto contains copies of the audited consolidated
balance sheet as of December 31, 1998 and the unaudited interim consolidated
balance sheet as of September 30, 1999 (the "Latest Balance Sheet") for the
Company and its Subsidiaries, and the related audited consolidated statements
(other than the unaudited interim consolidated statements for the period ending
September 30, 1999) of operations, stockholders' deficit and cash flows of the
Company and its Subsidiaries for the fiscal periods then ended (collectively,
the "Financial Statements"). The Financial Statements (i) fairly present, in all
material respects, the financial condition and the results of operations of the
Company as at the dates and for the periods indicated therein, (ii) were based
on the books and records of the Company and were prepared on a consistent basis
for the Company, and (iii) have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. The
Company and its Subsidiaries have no Indebtedness, material contingent
obligation, or other unusual forward or long-term commitment which is not fairly
reflected in the Financial Statements or in the notes thereto. Since September
30, 1999, there has been no material change in the condition, financial or
otherwise, of the Company as shown on the Latest Balance Sheet as of such date,
except the Acquisition and changes in the ordinary course of business, none of
which individually or in the aggregate has been materially adverse. The fiscal
year of the Company and each of its Subsidiaries ends on December 31 of each
year.

         (b) The estimated pro forma unaudited balance sheet of the Company as
of the Closing Date adjusted to give effect to the issuance of the Notes, the
Warrants, the Acquisition and the other transactions contemplated to occur on
the Closing Date pursuant to the Transaction Documents and the application of
the proceeds of the Notes, as prepared by the Company and heretofore delivered

                                       20
<PAGE>   21
to the Purchasers, presents a good faith estimate of the pro forma financial
condition of the Company and its Subsidiaries (after giving effect to the
Acquisition, the issuance of the Notes, the Warrants, the other transactions
contemplated to occur on the Closing Date pursuant to the Transaction Documents
and the application of the proceeds received in connection therewith) and has
been prepared in accordance with GAAP consistently applied.

         (c) The pro forma projected financial statements (including certain
balance sheets and statements of operations and cash flow) prepared by the
Company and heretofore delivered to the Purchasers, were prepared on a basis
consistent with the Financial Statements and based on good faith estimates and
assumptions made by the management of the Company at the time made, and there
are no statements or conclusions in any of such projections which, at the time
made, were based upon or include information known to the Company to be
misleading or which fail to take into account material information regarding the
matters reported therein.

         5.17 ACT! Documents. The Company has delivered to each Purchaser true,
complete and correct copies of the License Agreement and the other ACT!
Documents, together with all amendments and modifications thereto. Such
documents (including the schedules and exhibits thereto) comprise a full and
complete copy of all material agreements between the Company and Symantec with
respect to the subject matter thereof and all transactions related thereto, and
there are no material agreements or understandings, oral or written, or side
agreements between the Company and Symantec not contained therein that relate to
or modify the substance thereof. The License Agreement and the other ACT!
Documents have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action on the
part of the Company, and, when executed and delivered by the Company, will be
the legal, valid and binding obligations of the Company, enforceable in
accordance with their terms, except as limited by bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization, moratorium, or other similar laws affecting creditors' rights
generally and by general principles of equity relating to enforceability. To the
best of the Company's knowledge, each of the representations and warranties
contained in Articles 11 and 12 of the License Agreement is true and correct in
all material respects and Symantec is not in default in any material respect
under any covenants thereunder.

         5.18     Debt Agreements.

         (a) Schedule 5.18(a) is a complete and correct list of each credit
agreement, loan agreement, indenture, purchase agreement, guarantee, letter of
credit or other arrangement providing for or otherwise relating to any
Indebtedness or any extension of credit (or commitment for any extension of
credit) to, or guarantee by, the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, outstanding
on the date hereof, and the aggregate principal or face amount outstanding or
that may become outstanding under each such arrangement is correctly described
in Schedule 5.18(a). There exists no default under the provisions of any
instrument evidencing or securing any Indebtedness of the Company and its
Subsidiaries or of any agreement otherwise relating thereto which has had or
would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

         (b) Schedule 5.18(b) is a complete and correct list of each Lien
securing Indebtedness of any Person outstanding on the date hereof and covering
any property of the Company or any

                                       21
<PAGE>   22
of its Subsidiaries, and the aggregate Indebtedness secured (or that may be
secured) by each such Lien and the property covered by each such Lien is
correctly described in Schedule 5.18(b).

         5.19 Other Transaction Documents. The Company has delivered to each
Purchaser true, complete and correct copies of each other Transaction Document
together with all amendments and modifications thereto. Such documents
(including the schedules and exhibits thereto) comprise a full and complete copy
of all agreements between the parties thereto with respect to the subject matter
thereof and all transactions related thereto. Such Transaction Documents have
been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action on the part of the
Company and, when executed and delivered by the Company, will be the legal,
valid and binding obligations of the Company, enforceable in accordance with
their terms, except as limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization,
moratorium or other similar laws affecting creditors' rights generally and by
general principles of equity relating to enforceability. Neither the Company nor
any Subsidiary thereof is in default, nor has any event occurred or is any
condition continuing which with the passage of time or giving of notice or both
would constitute a default or event of default by the Company or any Subsidiary
thereof, under any other Transaction Document.

         5.20 SEC Documents. The Company has filed in a timely manner all
documents that the Company was required to file with the Commission under
Sections 13, 14(a) and 15(d) of the Exchange Act, since its initial public
offering. As of their respective filing dates, all documents filed by the
Company with the Commission (the "SEC Documents") complied in all material
respects with the requirements of the Exchange Act or the Securities Act, as
applicable. None of the SEC Documents as of their respective dates contained any
untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state material fact required
to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements made therein, in light
of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. The financial
statements of the Company included in the SEC Documents comply as to form in all
material respects with applicable accounting requirements and with the published
rules and regulations of the Commission with respect thereto.

         5.21 Year 2000 Compliance. All computer systems and applications of the
Company and its Subsidiaries that are material to the Company's or its
Subsidiaries' business and operations are able to perform as set forth in
Exhibit E hereto.

         5.22 Intellectual Property Matters. Each of the Company and its
Subsidiaries owns or possesses rights to use all intellectual property rights
which are required to conduct its business except to the extent that the failure
to do so could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. No
event has occurred which permits, or after notice or lapse of time or both would
permit, the revocation or termination of any such rights, and neither the
Company nor its Subsidiaries is liable to any Person for infringement under any
Requirement of Law with respect to any such rights as a result of its business
operation except to the extent that the failure to do so could not reasonably be
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

                                       22

         5.23 Solvency. As of the Closing Date and after giving effect to the
issuance of the Notes and the Warrants, and the consummation of the transactions
contemplated by the ACT! Documents, the Company and each of its Subsidiaries on
a consolidated basis will be Solvent.

         5.24 Government Regulation. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary
thereof is an "investment company" or a company "controlled" by an "investment
company" (as each such term is defined or used in the Investment Company Act of
1940, as amended) and neither the Company nor any Subsidiary thereof is, or
after giving effect to the transactions contemplated by the Transaction
Documents, will be, subject to regulation under the Public Utility Holding
Company Act of 1935 or the Interstate Commerce Act, each as amended, or any
other Requirement of Law which limits its ability to incur or consummate the
transactions contemplated hereby.

                                   ARTICLE VI

                               REPRESENTATIONS AND
                          WARRANTIES OF THE PURCHASERS

         Each Purchaser, severally and not jointly, hereby represents and
warrants to the Company, as of the Closing Date, as follows:

         6.01 Authorization; No Contravention. The execution, delivery and

been duly authorized by all necessary action, (b) does not contravene the terms
of such Purchaser's organizational documents or any amendment thereof and (c)

delivered by such Purchaser, and this Agreement and the other Transaction
Documents to which such Purchase is a party constitute the legal, valid and

rights of such Purchaser at all times to sell or otherwise dispose of all or any
part of the Notes, the Warrants or the shares of Common Stock issued upon

in effect. Such Purchaser agrees to the imprinting, so long as required by law,
of a legend on the Notes, the Warrants and the shares of Common Stock issued
upon exercise of the Warrants to the following effect:

         "THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE
         SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR THE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE
         AND MAY NOT BE SOLD OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF EXCEPT PURSUANT TO AN
         EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER SUCH ACT AND APPLICABLE STATE
         SECURITIES LAWS OR PURSUANT TO AN APPLICABLE EXEMPTION FROM THE
         REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF SUCH ACT AND SUCH LAWS."

         6.04 ERISA. No part of the funds used by such Purchaser to purchase the
Notes or the Warrants hereunder constitutes assets of any Pension Plan or any
"plan" (as defined in Section 4975 of the Code).

         6.05 Broker's, Finder's or Similar Fees. Except for the commitment fees
payable pursuant to Section 14.17, there are no brokerage commissions, finder's
fees or similar fees or commissions payable in connection with the transactions
contemplated hereby, or by any other Transaction Document to which such
Purchaser is a party, based on any agreement, arrangement or understanding with
such Purchaser or any action taken by such Purchaser.

         6.06 Governmental Authorization; Third Party Consent. Except as
contemplated by the Transaction Documents, no approval, consent, compliance,
exemption, authorization or other action by, or notice to, or filing with, any
Governmental Authority or any other Person in respect of any Requirement of Law
or Contractual Obligation, and no lapse of a waiting period under any
Requirement of Law or Contractual Obligation, is necessary or required in
connection with the execution, delivery or performance by such Purchaser or
enforcement against such Purchaser of this Agreement and the other Transaction
Documents to which it is a party or the transactions contemplated hereby or
thereby.

         6.07 Corporate Existence and Power. Such Purchaser (a) is a corporation
or limited liability company, as the case may be, duly organized, validly
existing and in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of
incorporation or formation and (b) has the corporate or other power and
authority to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under this Agreement
and each other Transaction Document to which it is a party.

of Law and Contractual Obligations, including, without limitation, the Foreign

its business, except when the failure to do so could not reasonably expected to
have a Material Adverse Effect.

shall permit representatives of any Purchaser (but not any other Holders or
Participants other than any such

                                       28
<PAGE>   29
Holders or Participants who are Affiliates of the Purchaser), from time to time,

audit and make extracts from its books, records and files, including, but not
limited to, management letters prepared by independent accountants; and discuss
with its principal officers and its independent accountants, its business,
assets, liabilities, financial condition, results of operations and business
prospects.

         8.08 Use of Proceeds. The Company shall use the proceeds of the sale of
the Notes and the Warrants hereunder only (a) in connection with the Acquisition
and the implementation of the Company's new business strategy and (b) for the

the Transaction Documents.

         8.09     Pro Forma and Projected Financial Statements.

         (a) Within thirty (30) days following the Closing Date, the Company
shall deliver to each Purchaser pro forma projected financial statements

footnotes) prepared after the Closing and reflecting the forecasted financial
condition and results of operations of the Company and each of its Subsidiaries
(A) on an annual basis for the two-year period commencing on January 1, 2000 and
(B) on a quarterly basis for the period commencing on January 1, 2000 through
December 31, 2001, prepared by the Company and adjusted to give effect to the
issuance of the Notes, the Warrants, the Acquisition and the other transactions
contemplated to occur on the Closing Date pursuant to the Transaction Documents
and the application of the proceeds of the Notes, which such pro forma financial
statements shall be in form and substance satisfactory to each Purchaser.

on a basis consistent with the Financial Statements and will be based on good
faith estimates and assumptions made by the management of the Company.

         8.10 Reservation of Shares. The Company shall at all times reserve and
keep available out of the aggregate of its authorized but unissued shares, free
of preemptive rights, such number of its duly authorized shares of Common Stock
and Preferred Stock as shall be sufficient to enable the Company to issue Common
Stock, and Junior Preferred Stock to the extent required by the proviso to the
first sentence in Section 2.01(b), upon the exercise of the Warrants.

         8.11 Regulatory Requirements and Restrictions. In the event of any
reasonable determination by any Holder that, by reason of any existing or future
federal or state law, statute, rule, regulation, guideline, order, court or
administrative ruling, request or directive (whether or not having the force of
law and whether or not failure to comply therewith would be unlawful) (a
"Regulatory Requirement"), such Holder is effectively restricted or prohibited
from holding its Warrant or the related Warrant Securities (including any shares
of Capital Stock or other securities distributable to such Warrantholder in any
merger, reorganization, readjustment or other reclassification), or otherwise
realize upon or receive the benefits intended under its Warrant (a "Regulatory
Constraint"), the Company shall, and shall use its reasonable efforts to have
its shareholders, take such action as such Holder may deem reasonably necessary
to permit such Holder to comply with such Regulatory Requirement, including the
issuance of one or more

                                       29
<PAGE>   30
Adjustment Warrants to purchase Junior Preferred Stock in lieu of warrants to
purchase Common Stock, as contemplated by the proviso to the first sentence of
Section 2.01(b). The costs of taking such action shall be borne by the Company.
Such action to be taken may include, without limitation, the Company's
authorization of one or more new classes of Capital Stock for which such Warrant
may be exercised or to make such modifications and amendments to the Company
Charter Documents, this Agreement, the related Warrant or any other documents
and instruments related to or executed in connection herewith or with the
Warrants as may be deemed reasonably necessary by such Holder. Such Holder shall
give written notice to the Company of any such determination and the action or
actions necessary to comply with such Regulatory Requirement, and the Company
shall take all steps reasonably necessary to comply with such determination as
expeditiously as possible. In the event that any Holder becomes entitled to
receive securities or other property other than Common Stock as a result of a
Regulatory Constraint, the Company shall provide notice to each other Holder of
such event, and each such other Holder shall, at its election, have the right to
receive such other securities or property upon exercise of its Warrants in the
same manner as the Holder subject to such Regulatory Constraint.

rata basis in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.04, at a redemption

<PAGE>   34
         10.02 Mandatory Redemption of Notes.

         (a) The Company shall redeem the Notes in full on December 31, 2004, at
a redemption price equal to the unpaid principal thereof plus accrued and unpaid
interest thereon through the date fixed for redemption.

         (b) Upon any of (i) the consummation of a Qualified Public Offering by
the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, (ii) a Change of Control, (iii) the
occurrence of an Event of Default, or (iv) the consummation by the Company of a
merger, consolidation or share exchange with any other Person (other than as
permitted by Section 9.01), or a sale of substantially all of its assets, the
Company shall, if so directed by the Required Holders, redeem the Notes of all
Holders in full at a redemption price equal to the unpaid principal thereof plus
accrued and unpaid interest thereon through the date fixed for redemption.

         (c) The Company shall, if directed by the Required Holders, redeem the

in both (i) and (ii), on a pro rata basis in accordance with the provisions of
Section 10.04, at a redemption price equal to the unpaid principal thereof plus
accrued and unpaid interest thereon through the date fixed for redemption.

         10.03 Notice of Redemption.

         (a) Optional Redemption. Any call for redemption of the Notes pursuant
to Section 10.01 shall be made by giving written notice to the Holders of the
Notes to be redeemed no less than ten (10) Business Days nor more than thirty
(30) days prior to the date fixed for redemption, which notice shall specify the
principal amount of such Notes to be redeemed. If less than all the Notes are to
be redeemed, the notice of redemption shall identify the Notes and portion
thereof to be redeemed. Notice of call for redemption having been given as
aforesaid, the principal amount to be redeemed, together with accrued and unpaid
interest thereon to the date of redemption, shall on the date designated in such
notice become due and payable. From and after such date, unless the Company
shall default in payment of such principal amount when so due and payable,
together with accrued and unpaid interest, interest on such principal amount

"Redemption Notice") of such election not later than ten (10) days after receipt
of such notice from the Company, or, in the case of a redemption pursuant to
Section 10.02(b)(iii), after knowledge of the applicable Event of Default by
such Holder. If the Company shall have received Redemption Notices from the
Required Holders, it shall redeem in full all Notes then outstanding, or, in the
case of a partial redemption pursuant to Section 10.02(c), as set forth in such
Section 10.02(c) and Section 10.04. If any transaction does not occur for any

                                       34

redemption of less than all the Notes at the time outstanding, the amount of any
such redemption shall be allocated to the aggregate principal amount of the

in proportion, as nearly as practicable, to the respective aggregate unpaid
principal amounts of the Notes then held by them.

         10.05 Notation of Partial Payments. Upon any partial redemption of any
Note, such Note, at the option of the Company, shall be either (a) surrendered

the same terms and provisions as the Note surrendered or (b) made available to
the Company at its office herein provided for notation thereon of the portion of
the principal so redeemed.

                             SUBORDINATION OF NOTES

         11.01 Definitions. As used in this Article XI, the following terms
shall have the following meanings:

         "Post-Petition Interest" means interest accruing in respect of Senior
Indebtedness after the commencement of any bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership
or similar proceedings by or against the Company, at the rate applicable to such
Senior Indebtedness pursuant to the terms applicable thereto, whether or not
such interest is allowed as a claim enforceable against the Company in any such
proceedings.

Indebtedness (other than a Senior Payment Default) which continues uncured for
the period of grace, if any, with respect thereto.

         "Senior Default" means a Senior Payment Default or a Senior Covenant
Default.

         "Senior Indebtedness" means the following obligations of the Company:

designated in such instrument as "Senior Indebtedness" for purposes of this
Agreement and (b) any and all refinancings, replacements or refundings of any of
the amounts referred to in clause (a) above; provided, however, that the
aggregate principal amount of Senior Indebtedness permitted under clause (a),
and any refinancing, replacement or refunding thereof permitted under clause (b)
(including the maximum amount of the aggregate commitments of the lenders to
extend any revolving credit facility thereunder) shall not exceed at any time

Indebtedness whether upon the scheduled maturity thereof, upon acceleration or

         11.02 Subordination. The Company, for itself and its successors and
assigns, and each Purchaser covenants and agrees, and each Holder, by its
acceptance of any Note, shall be deemed to have agreed, that the payment from
whatever source of the Indebtedness of the Company evidenced by this Agreement
and the Notes, including the principal thereof and interest thereon, and any
other amounts owing hereunder or thereunder, shall be subordinate and subject in
right of payment, to the extent and in the manner hereinafter set forth, to the
prior payment in full of all Senior Indebtedness, and that each holder of such
Senior Indebtedness, with respect to the Senior Indebtedness now existing or
hereafter arising, shall be deemed to have acquired such Senior Indebtedness in
reliance upon the covenants and provisions contained in this Article XI.

         11.03    Subordination Upon Distribution of Assets.

         (a) Upon any payment or distribution of assets of the Company of any

of the Company, whether voluntary or involuntary, or in bankruptcy, insolvency,
receivership or other proceedings or pursuant to any assignment for the benefit
of creditors or any other marshalling of assets and liabilities of the Company
(including upon any event described in Section 12.01(g) or (h)), all Senior
Indebtedness shall first be paid in full or duly provided for before any payment
is made on account of the Notes, and any such payment or distribution which
otherwise would be payable or deliverable upon or with respect to the Notes
shall be paid or delivered directly to the holders of the Senior Indebtedness or
as otherwise directed by such holders or a court of competent jurisdiction for
application to the payment or prepayment of the Senior Indebtedness (in such
order as the holders of the Senior Indebtedness may elect) until the Senior
Indebtedness shall have been paid in full or duly provided for.

         (b) For purposes of this Section 11.03, the words "cash, property or
securities" shall not be deemed to include (i) any payment or distribution of
securities of the Company or any other corporation authorized by an order or
decree giving effect, and stating in such order or decree that effect is given,
to the subordination of the Notes to the Senior Indebtedness, and made by a
court of competent jurisdiction in a reorganization proceeding under any
applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law, or (ii) securities of
the Company or any other corporation provided for by a plan of reorganization or
readjustment which are subordinated, to at least the same extent as the Notes,
to the payment of all Senior Indebtedness then outstanding.

         11.04    Prohibitions and Limitations on Payment.

         (a) Subject to Section 11.03 hereof, upon receipt by the Company of a
Blockage Notice (as defined below) in respect of any Senior Payment Default and
unless and until such Senior Payment Default shall have been cured or
effectively waived in writing by the holders of the Senior Indebtedness, no
direct or indirect payment (in cash, property, securities or by set-off or
otherwise) shall be made of or on account of the Notes or in respect of any
redemption, retirement, purchase or

                                       36
<PAGE>   37
other acquisition of the Notes and the Holders shall not accept (in cash,
property, securities or by setoff or otherwise) from the Company any payment of
or on account of the Notes. Upon the earlier of the cure or waiver of such

(i) and (ii) above, the Company shall, subject to Section 11.03 hereof, promptly
pay to the Holders all sums then due and payable under the Notes as a result of
this Section 11.04(b).

         (c) For purposes of this Section 11.04, a "Blockage Notice" is a notice
of a Senior Default given to the Company by the holders of the majority of the
aggregate principal amount of the Senior Indebtedness under which such Senior
Default has occurred (or their authorized agent) and a "Blockage Period" is the
period commencing upon the Company's receipt of such Blockage Notice and ending
on the date one hundred eighty (180) days thereafter; provided that (i) no
Blockage Notice may be given by reason of the continuance of any Senior Default
which existed at the time of the giving of a prior Blockage Notice unless such
Senior Default shall have been cured for a period of not less than sixty (60)
days, and (ii) no more than one Blockage Notice may be given in any three
hundred sixty (360)-day period. Upon receipt of any Blockage Notice, the Company
shall promptly, but in any event with five (5) Business Days of receipt, deliver
the same to each Holder.

         11.05 Limitation on Remedies. So long as any Senior Indebtedness
remains outstanding, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, no Holder shall
declare or join in any declaration of any of the Notes to be due and payable by
reason of such Event of Default or otherwise take or cause to be taken any
action against the Company (including, without limitation, commencing any legal
action against the Company or filing or joining in the filing of any insolvency
petition against the Company) until the expiration of the Remedy Standstill
Period (as defined below) with respect to such Event of Default; provided, that
any Remedy Standstill Period shall expire immediately and, subject to the
provisions of Sections 11.03 and 11.04 hereof, the Holders shall be entitled to
exercise all rights and remedies under Section 12.02 hereof in the event (a) the
holders of a majority of the aggregate principal amount of the Senior
Indebtedness shall have caused such Senior Indebtedness to become due prior to
its stated maturity, (b) the Senior Covenant Default in respect of which any
Blockage Period shall have commenced shall have been cured to the satisfaction
of the holders of a majority of the aggregate principal amount of the Senior
Indebtedness or effectively waived in writing by the holders of a majority of
the aggregate principal amount of the Senior Indebtedness, (c) an Event of
Default pursuant to Section 12.01(g) or (h) shall have occurred and be
continuing, or (d) any holder of the Senior Indebtedness commences any action to
foreclose upon, attach, seize, take control of or otherwise exercise remedies
under any agreement governing such Senior

                                       37

Indebtedness or any security therefor on or with respect to a material portion
of the assets of the Company. For the purposes of this Section 11.05, a "Remedy
Standstill Period" is the period commencing on the date a written notice of
intention to exercise remedies on account of the occurrence of an Event of
Default shall have been given by the Required Holders to the Company and
expiring on the later of (i) thirty (30) Business Days after the date of such
notice and (ii) the earlier of (A) the expiration of any Blockage Period in
effect on the last day of such thirty (30) Business Day period or (B) the one
hundred eightieth (180th) day after the date of such notice.

         11.06 Payments and Distributions Received. If any Holder shall have
received any payment from, or distribution of assets of, the Company in respect
of any of the Notes in contravention of the terms of this Article XI, then and
in such event such payment or distribution shall be received and held in trust
for and shall be paid over or delivered to the holders of the Senior
Indebtedness (or to the applicable agent on their behalf) for application to the
Senior Indebtedness, to the extent necessary to pay all such Senior Indebtedness
in full in the form received (except for the endorsement or assignment of such
Holder where necessary).

         11.07 Proofs of Claim. If, while any Senior Indebtedness is
outstanding, any event described in Section 11.03(a) occurs, the Holders shall
duly and promptly take such action as any holder of the Senior Indebtedness may
reasonably request to collect any payment with respect to the Notes for the
account of the holders of the Senior Indebtedness and to file appropriate claims
or proofs of claim in respect of the Notes and to execute and deliver on demand
such powers of attorney, proofs of claim, assignments of claim or other
instruments as may be required to enforce any and all claims on or with respect
to the Notes. Upon the failure of any Holder to take any such action, each
holder of the Senior Indebtedness is hereby irrevocably authorized and empowered
(in its own name or otherwise), but shall have no obligation, to demand, sue
for, collect and receive every payment or distribution referred to in respect of
the Notes and to file claims and proofs of claim with respect to the Notes and
each of the Holders hereby appoints each holder of the Senior Indebtedness or
its representative as attorney-in-fact for such Holder to take any and all
actions permitted by this paragraph to be taken by such Holder.

         11.08 Subrogation. After all amounts payable under or in respect of the
Senior Indebtedness have been paid in full or duly provided for, the Holders
shall be subrogated to the rights of the holders of the Senior Indebtedness to
receive payments or distributions applicable to the Senior Indebtedness to the
extent that distributions otherwise payable to the Holders have been applied to
the payment of the Senior Indebtedness. A distribution made under this Article
XI to a holder of the Senior Indebtedness which otherwise would have been made
to a Holder is not, as between the Company and such Holder, a payment by the
Company on the Senior Indebtedness.

<PAGE>   39
         11.09 Relative Rights. This Article XI defines the relative rights of
the Holders and the holders of the Senior Indebtedness. Nothing in this Article
XI shall (a) impair, as between the Company and the Holders, the obligations of
the Company, which are absolute and unconditional, to pay principal of and
interest (including default interest) on the Notes in accordance with their
terms, (b) affect the relative rights of the Holders and creditors of the
Company other than holders of the Senior Indebtedness, or (c) prevent the
Holders from exercising their available remedies upon a default or Event of
Default, subject to the rights, if any, under this Article XI of holders of the
Senior Indebtedness.

         11.10 Subordination Not Impaired; Benefit of Subordination. Each of the
Holders agrees and consents that without notice to or assent by such Holder, and
without affecting the liabilities and obligations of the Company and any holder
of the Notes and the rights and benefits of the holders of the Senior
Indebtedness set forth in this Article XI:

         (a) Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the obligations and
liabilities of the Company and any other party or parties for or upon the Senior
Indebtedness may, from time to time, be increased, renewed, refinanced,
extended, modified, amended, restated, compromised, supplemented, terminated,
waived or released;

         (b) The holders of the Senior Indebtedness, and any representative or
representatives acting on behalf thereof, may exercise or refrain from
exercising any right, remedy or power granted by or in connection with any
agreements relating to the Senior Indebtedness and the subordination provisions
hereof, including, without limitation, accelerating the Senior Indebtedness or
exercising any right of set-off; and

         (c) Any balance or balances of funds with any holder of the Senior
Indebtedness at any time outstanding to the credit of the Company may, from time
to time, in whole or in part, be surrendered or released;

all as the holders of the Senior Indebtedness, and any representative or
representatives acting on their behalf, may deem advisable, and all without
impairing, abridging, diminishing, releasing or affecting the subordination of
the Notes to the Senior Indebtedness provided for herein.

         11.11 Covenants of the Holders. Until all of the Senior Indebtedness
has been fully paid and discharged:

         (a) No Holder shall hereafter (i) give any further subordination to any
other creditor in respect of the Notes, or (ii) sell, assign, transfer or pledge
the Notes or any part thereof unless expressly subject to the terms of this
Article XI.

         (b) No Holder shall release, exchange, extend the time of payment of,
compromise, set off or otherwise discharge any part of the Notes or modify or
amend the Notes in such a manner as to have an adverse effect upon the rights of
the holders of the Senior Indebtedness.

         (c) Each Holder hereby undertakes and agrees for the benefit of the
holders of the Senior Indebtedness that, upon the occurrence and during the
continuance of a Senior Default, it

                                       39
<PAGE>   40
shall take any actions reasonably requested by any holder of the Senior
Indebtedness to effectuate the full benefit of the subordination contained
herein.

         11.12    Miscellaneous.

         (a) To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Holders and the
Company hereby waive (i) notice of acceptance hereof and reliance hereon by the
holders of the Senior Indebtedness and (ii) all diligence in the collection or
protection of or realization upon the Senior Indebtedness.

         (b) The Company and the Holders hereby expressly agree that the holders
of the Senior Indebtedness may enforce any and all rights derived herein by
suit, either in equity or law, for specific performance of any agreement
contained in this Article XI or for judgment at law and any other relief
whatsoever appropriate to such action or procedure.

         (c) Each Holder acknowledges and agrees that the foregoing
subordination provisions are, and are intended to be, an inducement and a
consideration to each holder of the Senior Indebtedness, whether such Senior
Indebtedness was created or acquired before or after the date of this Agreement,
and each holder of the Senior Indebtedness shall be deemed conclusively to have
relied upon such subordination provisions in acquiring and continuing to hold
such Senior Indebtedness.

                                   ARTICLE XII

                                EVENTS OF DEFAULT

         12.01 Events of Default. An "Event of Default" shall occur hereunder
if:

         (a) the Company shall default in the payment of the principal of the
Notes, when and as the same shall become due and payable, whether at maturity or

         (b) the Company shall default in the payment of any installment of
interest on the Notes according to its terms, when and as the same shall become

the Company of written notice from the Required Holders of such default or (ii)

condition or agreement contained herein or in the Notes (other than those
referred to in clauses (a), (b), (c) or (d)(i) of this Section 12.01), and such
default is not remedied or waived within 30 days after receipt by the Company of
written notice from the Required Holders of such default; or

                                       40
<PAGE>   41
         (e) any representation, warranty, certification or statement made by or
on behalf of the Company herein, in any Note, or in any certificate or other
document delivered by the Company to the Holders pursuant hereto or thereto
shall have been incorrect in any material respect when made; or

         (f) (i) the Company or any Subsidiary thereof shall default (as
principal or guarantor) in the payment of any principal or interest (or similar
payment in the case of Capitalized Lease Obligations) of any Indebtedness of the
Company or any of its Subsidiaries (other than the Notes) and such Indebtedness
is in an amount, individually or in the aggregate, in excess of $1,000,000, (ii)
an event of default shall have occurred with respect to any Senior Indebtedness
(as defined in Article XI hereof) and remains uncured after the applicable grace
period, if any, or (iii) any Indebtedness of the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries, which individually or in the aggregate is in excess of $1,000,000,
shall become (whether automatically or by demand of the lender thereof) due and
payable in advance of the stated maturity thereof by virtue of any acceleration
or similar provision relating thereto; or

         (g) an involuntary proceeding shall be commenced or an involuntary
petition shall be filed in a court of competent jurisdiction seeking (i) relief
in respect of the Company or any Subsidiary thereof or of a substantial part of
its respective property or assets, under Title 11 of the United States Code, as
now constituted or hereafter amended, or any other Federal or state bankruptcy,
insolvency, receivership or similar law, (ii) the appointment of a receiver,
trustee, custodian, sequestrator, conservator or a similar official for the
Company or any Subsidiary thereof or for a substantial part of its respective
property or assets, or (iii) the winding up or liquidation of the Company or any
Subsidiary thereof; and such proceeding or petition shall continue undismissed
for sixty (60) days, or an order or decree approving or ordering any of the
foregoing shall be entered; or

         (h) the Company or any Subsidiary thereof shall (i) voluntarily
commence any proceeding or file any petition seeking relief under Title 11 of
the United States Code, as now constituted or hereafter amended, or any other

consent to the institution of, or fail to contest in a timely and appropriate
manner, any proceeding for the filing of any petition described in paragraph (g)

(iv) file an answer admitting the material allegations of a petition filed

(collectively, "Judgments") (i) in the case of money Judgments, in an amount of
$3,000,000 or more for any single Judgment or $3,000,000 or more for all such
Judgments in the aggregate, in each case in excess of any applicable insurance
with respect to which the insurer has admitted liability and (ii) in the case of
non-monetary Judgments, such Judgment or Judgments (in the aggregate) are
reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect, shall be rendered against
the Company or any

                                       41
<PAGE>   42
Subsidiary thereof and the same shall remain undischarged, unpaid, or unstayed
for a period of thirty (30) days.

         12.02 Acceleration. If an Event of Default occurs under Section
12.01(g) or 12.01(h), then the outstanding principal of and accrued and unpaid
interest on the Notes and all obligations under this Agreement shall
automatically become immediately due and payable, without presentment, demand,
protest or notice of any kind, all of which are expressly waived. If any other
Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Required Holders, by written
notice to the Company, may (subject to the terms and conditions of Article XI
hereof) declare the principal of and accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes
and all obligations under this Agreement to be due and payable immediately. Upon
any such declaration of acceleration, such principal, interest and other
obligations shall become immediately due and payable and subject to the terms
and conditions of Article XI hereof, each Holder shall be entitled to exercise
all of its rights and remedies hereunder and under its Note whether at law or in
equity.

         12.03 Set-Off. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, in addition
to all other rights and remedies that may then be available to any Holder, each
Holder is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, without notice to
the Company (any such notice being expressly waived by the Company), subject to
Article XI hereof, to set off and apply any and all indebtedness at any time
owing by such Holder to or for the credit or the account of the Company against
all amounts which may be owed to such Holder by the Company in connection with
this Agreement or any Notes. If any Holder shall obtain from the Company payment
of any principal of or interest on any Note or payment of any other amount under
this Agreement or any Note held by it or any other Transaction Document through
the exercise of any right of set-off, and, as a result of such payment, such
Holder shall have received a greater percentage of the principal, interest or
other amounts then due hereunder by the Company to such Holder than the
percentage received by any other Holders, it shall promptly make such
adjustments with such other Holders from time to time as shall be equitable, to
the end that all the Holders shall share the benefit of such excess payment (net
of any expenses which may be incurred by such Holder in obtaining or preserving
such excess payment) pro rata in accordance with the unpaid principal and/or
interest on the Notes or other amounts (as the case may be) owing to each of the
Holders. To such end all the Holders shall make appropriate adjustments among
themselves if such payment is rescinded or must otherwise be restored. Any
Holder taking action under this Section 12.03 shall promptly provide written
notice to the Company of any such action taken; provided, that the failure of
such Holder to provide such notice shall not necessarily prejudice its rights
hereunder.

                                  ARTICLE XIII

                                 INDEMNIFICATION

         13.01 Indemnification. In addition to all other sums due hereunder or
provided for in this Agreement, the Company shall indemnify and hold harmless
each Holder and its Affiliates and its officers, directors, agents, employees,
subsidiaries, partners and controlling persons (each, an "Indemnified Party") to
the fullest extent permitted by law, from and against any and all losses,
claims, damages, expenses (including reasonable fees, disbursements and other

                                       42
<PAGE>   43
charges of counsel) or other liabilities (collectively, "Liabilities") resulting
from or arising out of any breach of any representation or warranty, covenant or
agreement of the Company in this Agreement, the Notes or any Warrant, including
without limitation, the failure to make payment when due of amounts owing
pursuant to the Notes on the due date thereof (whether at the scheduled
maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) or any legal, administrative or other
actions (including actions brought by any Holder or the Company or any equity
holders of the Company or derivative actions brought by any Person claiming
through or in the Company's name), proceedings or investigations (whether formal
or informal), based upon, relating to or arising out of this Agreement, the
Notes or any Warrant or the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, or any
Indemnified Party's role therein or in the transactions contemplated thereby;
provided, that the Company shall not be liable under this Section 13.01 to an
Indemnified Party: (a) for any amount paid in settlement of claims without the
prior written consent of the Company, (b) to the extent that it is judicially
determined that such Liabilities resulted from the willful misconduct or gross
negligence of such Indemnified Party or (c) to the extent that it is determined
that such Liabilities resulted from the material breach by such Indemnified
Party of any representation, warranty, covenant or other agreement of such
Indemnified Party contained herein, in any Notes or in any Warrant; and
provided, further, that if and to the extent that such indemnification is
unenforceable for any reason, the Company shall make the maximum contribution to
the payment and satisfaction of such Liabilities which shall be permissible
under applicable laws. In connection with the obligation of the Company to
indemnify for expenses as set forth above, the Company further agrees, upon
presentation of appropriate invoices containing reasonable detail, to reimburse
each Indemnified Party for all such expenses (including reasonable fees,
disbursements and other charges of counsel) as they are incurred by such
Indemnified Party; provided, that if an Indemnified Party is reimbursed
hereunder for any expenses, such reimbursement of expenses shall be refunded to
the extent it is judicially determined that the Liabilities in question resulted
from (i) the willful misconduct or gross negligence of such Indemnified Party or
(ii) the material breach by such Indemnified Party of any representation,
warranty, covenant or other agreement of such Indemnified Party contained in
this Agreement, the Notes or any Warrant.

         13.02 Notification. Each Indemnified Party under this Article XIII
will, promptly after the receipt of notice of the commencement of any action,
investigation, claim or other proceeding against such Indemnified Party in
respect of which indemnity may be sought from the Company under this Article
XIII, notify the Company in writing of the commencement thereof. The omission of
any Indemnified Party so to notify the Company of any such action shall not
relieve the Company from any liability which it may have to such Indemnified
Party (a) other than pursuant to this Article XIII or (b) under this Article
XIII unless, and only to the extent that, such omission results in the
forfeiture by the Company of substantive rights or defenses or the Company are
otherwise prejudiced in defending such proceeding. In case any such action,
claim or other proceeding shall be brought against any Indemnified Party and it
shall notify the Company of the commencement thereof, the Company shall be
entitled to assume the defense thereof at its own expense, with counsel
reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Party; provided, that such
Indemnified Party may, at its own expense, retain separate counsel to
participate in such defense. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in any action, claim
or proceeding in which both the Company, on the one hand, and an Indemnified
Party, on the other hand, is, or is reasonably likely to become, a party, such
Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ

                                       43
<PAGE>   44
separate counsel at the expense of the Company and to control its own defense of
such action, claim or proceeding if, in the reasonable opinion of counsel to
such Indemnified Party, a conflict or potential conflict exists between the
Company, on the one hand, and such Indemnified Party, on the other hand, that
would make such separate representation advisable. The Company agrees that it
will not, without the prior written consent of the Required Holders, settle,
compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment in any pending or threatened
claim, action or proceeding relating to the matters contemplated hereby (if any
Indemnified Party is a party thereto or has been actually threatened to be made
a party thereto) unless such settlement, compromise or consent includes an
unconditional release of each Holder and each other Indemnified Party from all
liability arising or that may arise out of such claim, action or proceeding. The
Company shall not be liable for any settlement of any claim, action or
proceeding effected against an Indemnified Party without the prior written
consent of the Company. The rights accorded to Indemnified Parties hereunder
shall be in addition to any rights that any Indemnified Party may have at common
law, by separate agreement or otherwise.

                                   ARTICLE XIV

                                  MISCELLANEOUS

         14.01 Survival of Representations and Warranties. The representation of
the Company set forth in Section 5.11 shall survive indefinitely, regardless of
acceptance of the Notes and the Warrants and payment therefor. All of the other
representations and warranties made herein shall survive until the later of (i)
one year following the payment in full of all principal and interest on the
Notes and all other amounts due under the Notes or (ii) December 31, 2004.

         14.02 Notices. Except as otherwise provided herein, all notices,
requests and demands to or upon a party hereto, to be effective, shall be in

         14.03    Payments.

         (a) Except to the extent otherwise provided herein, all payments of
principal, interest and other amounts to be made by the Company under this
Agreement, the Notes and each Warrant shall be made in U.S. Dollars, in
immediately available funds, without deduction, set-off or counterclaim, to the
payee thereof not later than 2:00 p.m. Charlotte time on the date on which such
payment shall become due (each such payment made after such time on such due
date to be deemed

                                       45
<PAGE>   46
to have been made on the next succeeding Business Day). Each such payment shall
be made in accordance with written payment instructions furnished by such payee
from time to time. If the due date of any payment under this Agreement or any
Note would otherwise fall on a day which is not a Business Day, such date shall
be extended to the next succeeding Business Day and interest shall be payable
for any principal so extended for the period of such extension.

         (b) Each payment or prepayment of principal in respect of the Notes
shall be made and applied pro rata, as nearly as may be, to all outstanding
Notes according to the respective unpaid principal amounts thereof, and each
payment of interest in respect of the Notes shall be made and applied pro rata,
as nearly as may be, to all outstanding Notes according to the respective
amounts of such interest then due and payable.

         (c) Neither the Company, nor any of its Affiliates shall, directly or
indirectly, acquire any Note, by purchase or otherwise, except by way of payment
or prepayment thereof in accordance with the provisions of the Notes and of this
Agreement (including, without limitation, the provisions of this Agreement
requiring the payment and application of all such payments or prepayments pro
rata to all outstanding Notes).

         14.04    Assignments and Participation.

         (a) The Company may not assign its rights or obligations hereunder or
under the Notes without the prior consent of the Required Holders. The Company
may not assign its rights or obligations under a Warrant except in accordance
with the terms of such Warrant.

         (b) (i) Each Holder may assign to one or more of its Affiliates or
other third parties all or a portion of its interests, rights and obligations
under this Agreement and the Notes; provided, that unless the assignee is a
Holder or an Affiliate of the transferring Holder, the principal amount of the
Notes being assigned must equal or exceed $1,000,000 or represent 100% of the
principal amount of such Holder's Note. The Company will keep at its principal
executive office or at such other office as the Company may designate in writing
to the Holders a register (the "Note Register") in which, subject to such
reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, but at its expense (other than
transfer taxes, if any), it will provide for the registration and transfer of
Notes. Upon registration and transfer of any Note in compliance herewith, the
assignee thereof shall become the Holder thereof (or such portion thereof as
shall have been transferred and registered to such assignee) for purposes of
this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents and shall thereupon, in
respect of such Note (or portion thereof) be entitled to the benefits and liable
for the obligations of a Holder hereunder.

                  (ii) Whenever any Note shall be surrendered for transfer or
exchange in compliance herewith either at such office of the Company or at the
place of payment named in such Note, within five Business Days thereafter the
Company will deliver in exchange therefor a new Note or Notes, as may be
requested by such Holder, in the same aggregate unpaid principal amount as the
unpaid principal amount of the Note so surrendered, duly executed by the
Company. Each such Note presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or
exchange shall be duly endorsed or accompanied by a written instrument of
transfer, duly executed by the registered Holder or such Holder's attorney duly
authorized in writing. Any Note issued in exchange for any other Note or

                                       46
<PAGE>   47
upon transfer thereof shall carry the rights to unpaid interest and interest to
accrue which were carried by the Note so exchanged or transferred, and neither
gain nor loss of interest shall result from any such transfer or exchange. Any
transfer tax relating to such transaction shall be paid by the Holder requesting
the exchange.

                  (iii) The Company and any agent of the Company may deem and
treat the Person in whose name any Note is registered as the owner of such Note
for the purpose of receiving payment of the principal and interest on such Note
and for all other purposes whatsoever.

         (c) A Holder may sell or agree to sell to one or more other Persons (a
"Participant") a participation in all or any part of any Notes held by it;
provided, that unless the Participant is a Holder or an Affiliate of the
transferring Holder, the principal amount of the Notes being participated must
equal or exceed $500,000 or represent 100% of the principal amount of such
Holder's Note. The Participant's rights in respect of such participation shall
be those set forth in the agreements executed by such Holder in favor of the
Participant, and such Participant shall have no direct right under the Notes,
this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents, including rights to give
consents or waivers or to execute amendments, and the Company shall have no
obligations whatsoever to any Participant. In no event shall a Holder that sells
a participation agree with the Participant to take or refrain from taking any
action hereunder or under any other Transaction Document, except that such
Holder may agree with the Participant that it will not, without the consent of
the Participant, agree to (i) extend the date fixed for the payment of principal
of or interest on the related Notes, (ii) reduce the amount of any such payment
of principal and (iii) reduce the rate at which interest is payable thereon to a
level below the rate at which the Participant is entitled to receive such
interest. In connection with any sale by a Holder to a Participant of any
interest in any Note, such Holder shall be required to comply with all
Requirements of Law, including without limitation all securities laws and
regulations of any Governmental Authority.

         (d) A Holder may furnish any information concerning the Company or any
Subsidiary thereof in the possession of such Holder from time to time to
assignees and Participants (including prospective assignees and Participants) in
a manner reasonably necessary to assure the confidentiality of information
identified as confidential; provided, that if the intended recipient of such
information is not a financial institution or a financial investor, then such
Holder shall notify the Company in writing of the identity of the prospective
assignee or Participant and shall not furnish such information to the
prospective assignee or Participant if within 10 days of such Holder's notice to
the Company, the Company notifies such Holder in writing that the Company has
determined in good faith that such prospective assignee or Participant is a
competitor of the Company or its being an assignee or Participant would
otherwise be materially harmful to the Company. Except as provided in the
preceding sentence, each Holder and its assignees and Participants agree to
maintain in confidence, use only for purposes of analyzing and monitoring its
investment in the Company, and not to disclose to third parties information
regarding the Company furnished to such Holder or its assignees or Participants
by the Company (or in the case of an assignment or participation, by any Holder)
in writing, which writing clearly identifies such information as confidential or
any information that such Purchaser learns through the exercise of its
observation rights pursuant to Section 7.02 hereof or through the exercise of
its inspection rights pursuant to Section 8.07 hereof; provided that this
confidentiality agreement shall not apply (i) to the extent that such Holder or
its assignee or Participant in its sole discretion determines that

                                       47
<PAGE>   48
disclosure to one or more third parties is necessary to satisfy any legal or
regulatory obligations or requests or to enforce its rights under any
Transaction Documents, (ii) to disclosures by such Holder or its assignee or
Participant to its directors, officers, employees, attorneys and accountants
(provided that such Persons shall themselves agree to maintain the
confidentiality of such information in accordance with the requirements hereof),
or (iii) to any information (A) which was publicly known or available at the
time of its disclosure to such Holder or its assignee or Participant, (B) which
subsequently becomes publicly known or available other than as a result of a
breach by such Holder or its assignee or Participant of its non-disclosure
obligations under this sentence or (C) which becomes known to such Holder or its
assignee or Participant from a source, other than from the Company, entitled to
disclose the information.

         (e) Each Purchaser, and each other Holder by its acceptance of a Note
or a Warrant, acknowledges that so long as the Capital Stock of the Company
continues to be registered under Section 12(g) of the Exchange Act, the Insider
Trading and Securities Fraud Act of 1988 and other federal statutes impose
Requirements of Laws regarding the purchase and sale of the Capital Stock of the
Company, including by Persons who have received material non-public information.

         14.05 Lost, Etc. Notes. Upon receipt by the Company of evidence
reasonably satisfactory to it of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of
any Note, and (in case of loss, theft or destruction) of indemnity satisfactory
to it (which indemnity from a party other than the Holder or any Affiliate of
the Holder, in the Company's reasonable judgment, may be a secured indemnity
obligation) and upon surrender and cancellation of such Note, if mutilated,
within five Business Days thereafter the Company will deliver in lieu of such
Note a new Note in a like unpaid principal amount, duly executed by the Company,
dated as of the date to which interest has been paid thereon. The affidavit of
any Holder's treasurer or assistant treasurer (or other responsible official),
setting forth the circumstances with respect to the loss, theft or destruction
of a Note shall be accepted as satisfactory evidence thereof.

         14.06 Amendments, Determinations, Requests or Consents. Any amendment,
supplement or modification of or to any provision of this Agreement, any waiver
of any provision of this Agreement, and any consent to any departure by the
Company from the terms of any provision of this Agreement, shall be effective
(a) only if it is made or given in writing and signed by the Company, and the
Holders in accordance with this Section and (b) only in the specific instance
and for the specific purpose for which made or given. All determinations,
requests, consents, waivers or amendments (collectively "consent") to be made by
the Holders pursuant to this Agreement shall be made by the Required Holders and
not all the Holders; provided, that the consent of all Holders is needed to: (i)
reduce the principal of or rate of interest on the Notes, (ii) extend the final
scheduled maturity date of the principal amount of the Notes, (iii) change the
percentage of the Holders or the aggregate principal amount of Notes, as the
case may be, which shall be required for the Holders to take any action
hereunder, (iv) amend the provisions of Article XI hereof or (v) amend or waive
this Section 14.06; and provided, further, that the consent of the Holders of at
least 80% of the aggregate principal balance of Notes then outstanding is needed
with respect to any consent in connection with a transaction in which any Holder
or Holders of 20% or more, in the aggregate, of the outstanding principal amount
of the Notes, or their respective Affiliates, have a direct financial interest
other than as a Holder of Notes or Warrant Securities; and provided, further,
that no Holder shall have the right

                                       48
<PAGE>   49
to give any consent hereunder nor shall such Holder's consent be required if
such Holder has acquired any Notes in violation of Section 14.04 hereof.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the consent of the
holders of the Warrant Securities shall not be required except in connection
with any proposed amendment, supplement or modification of this Agreement, or
waiver or consent hereunder, unless it would materially adversely affect the
rights and privileges pertaining to the Warrant Securities, in which case such
the of the holders of a majority of the then outstanding Warrant Securities
shall also be required.

         14.07 Remedies Cumulative. No failure or delay on the part of the
Company or any Holder in exercising any right, power or remedy hereunder shall
operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any
such right, power or remedy preclude any other or further exercise thereof or
the exercise of any other right, power or remedy. The remedies provided for
herein are cumulative and are not exclusive of any remedies that may be
available to the Company or any Holder at law, in equity or otherwise.

         14.08 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of

         SECTION 2. SECURITIES SUBJECT TO THIS AGREEMENT.

                  (a) Registrable Securities. For the purposes of this
Agreement, Registrable Securities shall be treated as such until they have been
previously registered in the manner contemplated by this Agreement or sold in a
transaction so that all transfer restrictions and restrictive legends with
respect thereto are removed upon consummation of such sale, or until all such
Registrable Securities held by such Holder may immediately be sold during any 90
day period without registration in compliance with Rule 144.

                  (b) Holders of Registrable Securities. A Person is deemed to
be a holder of Registrable Securities whenever such Person owns of record
Registrable Securities. If the Company receives conflicting instructions,
notices or elections from two or more Persons with respect to the same
Registrable Securities, the Company may act upon the basis of the instructions,
notice or election received from the registered owner of such Registrable
Securities. Registrable Securities issuable upon exercise of an option, warrant
or other right or upon conversion of another security shall be deemed
outstanding for the purposes of this Agreement. A person need not exercise any
Warrants prior to the Company's effecting the registration of the Common Stock
issuable upon exercise of such Warrants.

         SECTION 3. REQUEST FOR SHORT-FORM REGISTRATION.

                  (a) At any time that the Company is eligible to file a
Short-Form Registration Statement, either (i) the holders of a Majority of the
Registrable Securities or (ii) the GE Holders (so long as, in the case of both
clauses (i) and clause (ii), such person(s) hold, and intend to cause to be
registered, Registrable Securities having an anticipated aggregate offering
price (before underwriting discounts and commissions) of at least $2,000,000)
may make a written request that the Company file a registration statement under
the Securities Act covering all or any portion of the Registrable Securities
held by the person(s) making the request (the "Initiating Holders"). Upon
receipt of such notice, the Company shall:

                           (A) within ten (10) days of the receipt thereof give
         written notice of such request to all Holders; and

                           (B) effect as soon as practicable, and in any event
         within 60 days of the receipt of such request, the registration under
         the Securities Act of all Registrable Securities which the Holders
         request to be registered, subject to the limitations of Section 3(b),
         within twenty (20) days of the mailing of such notice by the Company in
         accordance with Section 14(f).

If the Company is eligible to file a Short-Form Registration Statement with
respect to only a portion of the Registrable Securities, then registration
pursuant to this Section 3 may be requested with respect to such Registrable
Securities only and need not include other Registrable Securities that are not
then eligible to be registered on a Short-Form Registration Statement.

                  (b) If the Initiating Holders intend to distribute the
Registrable Securities covered by their request by means of an underwriting,
they shall so advise the Company as a part of their request made pursuant to
Section 3(a) and the Company shall include such information

                                       3
<PAGE>   4
in the written notice referred to in Section 3(a). The underwriter will be
selected by, and shall be reasonably acceptable to, the Company and a
majority-in-interest of the Initiating Holders. In such event, the right of any
Holder to include its Registrable Securities in such registration shall be
conditioned upon such Holder's participation in such underwriting and the
inclusion of such Holder's Registrable Securities in the underwriting (unless
otherwise mutually agreed by a majority-in-interest of the Initiating Holders
and such Holder) to the extent provided herein. All Holders proposing to
distribute their securities through such underwriting shall (together with the
Company as provided in Section 5(e)) enter into an underwriting agreement in
customary form with the underwriter or underwriters selected for such
underwriting. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 3, if the
underwriter advises the Initiating Holders in writing that marketing factors
require a limitation of the number of shares to be underwritten, then the
Initiating Holders shall so advise all Holders of Registrable Securities that
would otherwise be underwritten pursuant hereto, and the number of shares of
Registrable Securities that may be included in the underwriting shall be
allocated among all Holders thereof, including the Initiating Holders, in
proportion (as nearly as practicable) to the amount of Registrable Securities of
the Company that each such Holder has requested to be included in such offering;
provided, however, that the number of shares of Registrable Securities to be
included in such underwriting shall not be reduced unless all other securities
are first entirely excluded from the underwriting.

                  (c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company shall
furnish to Holders requesting a registration statement pursuant to this Section
3 a certificate signed by the Chief Executive Officer of the Company stating
that in the good faith judgment of the Board of Directors of the Company, it
would be seriously detrimental to the Company and its stockholders for such
registration statement to be filed and it is therefore essential to defer the
filing of such registration statement, the Company shall have the right to defer
taking action with respect to such filing for a period of not more than 120 days
after receipt of the request of the Initiating Holders; provided, however, that
the Company may not utilize this right more than once in any twelve-month
period.

                  (d) The Company shall not be obligated to effect, or to take
any action to effect, any registration pursuant to this Section 3:

                           (i) in the case of any registration initiated
         pursuant to Section 3(a)(i), after the Company has effected two
         registrations pursuant to this Section 3 that were initiated by the
         Holders of a Majority of the Registrable Securities and such
         registrations have been declared or ordered effective and continued to
         be effective, all in the manner contemplated by this Agreement; and

                           (ii) in the case of any registration initiated
         pursuant to Section 3(a)(ii), after the Company has effected one
         registration pursuant to this Section 3 that was initiated by the GE
         Holders and such registration has been declared or ordered effective
         and continued to be effective, all in the manner contemplated by this
         Agreement.

Without limiting the foregoing, the Company also shall not be obligated to
effect, or to take any action to effect, any registration pursuant to this
Section 3 during the period starting with the date thirty (30) days prior to the
Company's good faith estimate of the date of filing of and ending on a date one
hundred eighty (180) days after the effective date of a registration subject to
Section 4

                                       4
<PAGE>   5
hereof; provided, that the Company is actively employing in good faith all
reasonable efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective.

         SECTION 4. PIGGY-BACK REGISTRATION. If (but without any obligation to
do so) the Company proposes to register (including for this purpose a
registration effected by the Company for stockholders other than the Holders)
any of its stock or other securities under the Securities Act in connection with
the public offering of such securities solely for cash (other (i) a registration
relating solely to the sale of securities to participants in a Company stock
plan or (ii) a registration on any form which does not include substantially the
same information as would be required to be included in a registration statement
covering the sale of the Registrable Securities, but including any registration
statements filed in connection with the Existing Registration Rights
Agreements), the Company shall at such time promptly give each Holder written
notice of such registration. Upon the written request of each Holder given
within twenty (20) days after mailing of such notice by the Company in
accordance with Section 14(f), the Company shall, subject to the provisions of
Section 8, cause to be registered under the Securities Act all of the
Registrable Securities that each such Holder has requested to be registered. The
Company shall not be required to include in any such registration statement any
Registrable Securities that are not eligible to be registered on the
registration statement form that the Company was proposing to file.

         SECTION 5. OBLIGATIONS OF THE COMPANY. Whenever required under this
Agreement to effect the registration of any Registrable Securities, the Company
shall as expeditiously as reasonably possible:

                  (a) Prepare and file with the SEC a registration statement
with respect to such Registrable Securities and use its best efforts to cause
such registration statement to become effective, and, upon the request of the
Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities registered thereunder, keep
such registration statement effective for a period equal to the lesser of one
hundred eighty (180) days or until the distribution contemplated in the
Registration Statement has been completed; provided, however, that (i) such
180-day period shall be extended for a period of time equal to the period the
Holder refrains from selling any securities included in such registration at the
request of an underwriter of Common Stock (or other securities) of the Company;
and (ii) in the case of any registration of Registrable Securities on Form S-3
which are intended to be offered on a continuous or delayed basis; such 180-day
period shall be extended, to the extent necessary, to keep the registration
statement effective until all such Registrable Securities are sold; provided
that Rule 415, or any successor rule under the Securities Act, permits an
offering on a continuous or delayed basis, provided, further, that applicable
rules under the Securities Act governing the obligation to file a post-effective
amendment permit, in lieu of filing a post-effective amendment which (I)
includes any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act or
(II) reflects facts or events representing a material or fundamental change in
the information set forth in the registration statement, the incorporation by
reference of information required to be included in (I) and (II) above to be
contained in periodic reports filed pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the
Exchange Act in the registration statement; provided, however, that before
filing a registration statement or prospectus or any amendments or supplements
thereto, the Company shall provide counsel for the Holders with an adequate and
appropriate opportunity to participate in the preparation of such registration

                                       5
<PAGE>   6
statement and each prospectus included therein (and each amendment or supplement
thereto) to be filed with the Commission.

                  (b) Prepare and file with the Commission such amendments and
supplements to such registration statement and the prospectus used in connection
with such registration statement as may be necessary to comply with the
provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all
securities covered by such registration statement.

                  (c) Furnish to the Holders such numbers of copies of a
prospectus, including a preliminary prospectus, in conformity with the
requirements of the Securities Act, and such other documents as they may
reasonably request in order to facilitate the disposition of Registrable
Securities owned by them.

                  (d) Use its best efforts to register and qualify the
securities covered by such registration statement under such other securities or
Blue Sky laws of such jurisdictions as shall be reasonably requested by the
Holders; provided, that the Company shall not be required in connection
therewith or as a condition thereto to qualify to do business or to file a
general consent to service of process in any such states or jurisdictions,
unless the Company is already subject to service in such jurisdiction and except
as may be required by the Securities Act.

                  (e) In the event of any underwritten public offering, enter
into and perform its obligations under an underwriting agreement, in usual and
customary form, with the managing underwriter of such offering. Each Holder
participating in such underwriting shall also enter into and perform its
obligations under such an agreement in usual and customary form.

                  (f) Notify each Holder of 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 happening of any event
as a result of which the prospectus included in such registration statement, as
then in effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to
state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the
statements therein not misleading in the light of the circumstances then
existing.

                  (g) Cause all such Registrable Securities registered pursuant
hereto to be listed on each securities exchange or automated quotation system on
which similar securities issued by the Company are then listed.

                  (h) Provide a transfer agent and registrar for all Registrable
Securities registered pursuant hereunder and a CUSIP number for all such
Registrable Securities, in each case not later than the effective date of such
registration.

                  (i) Furnish, at the request of any Holder requesting
registration of Registrable Securities pursuant to this Agreement, on the date
that such Registrable Securities are delivered to the underwriters for sale in
connection with a registration pursuant to this Agreement, if such securities
are being sold through underwriters, or, if such securities are not being sold
through underwriters, on the date that the registration statement with respect
to such securities becomes effective, (i) an opinion, dated such date, of the
counsel representing the Company for the purposes of such registration, in form
and substance as is customarily given to underwriters in an

                                       6
<PAGE>   7
underwritten public offering, addressed to the underwriters, if any, and to the
Holders requesting registration of Registrable Securities and (ii) a letter
dated such date, from the independent certified public accountants of the
Company, in form and substance as is customarily given by independent certified
public accountants to underwriters in an underwritten public offering, addressed
to the underwriters, if any, and to the Holders requesting registration of
Registrable Securities.

                  (j) Keep counsel to the sellers of Registrable Securities
reasonably advised as to the initiation and progress of any registration under
Section 3 or 4 hereof.

                  (k) Provide officers' certificates and other customary closing
documents.

                  (l) Reasonably cooperate with each seller of Registrable
Securities and each underwriter participating in the disposition of such
Registrable Securities and their respective counsel in connection with any
filings required to be made with the NASD.

                  (m) Use its best efforts to take all other steps necessary to
effect the registration of the Registrable Securities contemplated hereby and
reasonably cooperate with the holders of such Registrable Securities to
facilitate the disposition of such Registrable Securities pursuant hereto.

         SECTION 6. FURNISH INFORMATION. It shall be a condition precedent to
the obligations of the Company to take any action pursuant to this Agreement
with respect to the Registrable Securities of any selling Holder that such
Holder shall furnish to the Company such information regarding itself, the
Registrable Securities held by it, and the intended method of disposition of
such securities as shall be required to effect the registration of such Holder's
Registrable Securities.

         SECTION 7. EXPENSES OF REGISTRATION. All expenses (other than
underwriting discounts and commissions) including all registration, filing and
qualification fees, printers' and accounting fees, fees and disbursements of
counsel for the Company and the reasonable fees and disbursements of two counsel
for the selling Holders shall be borne by the Company; provided, however, that
the Company and the Holders proposing to include Registrable Securities in a
registration begun pursuant to Section 3 shall each bear 50% of the Company
Out-of-Pocket Expenses (as defined below) in connection with such a registration
if the registration request is subsequently withdrawn at the request of the
Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities to be registered, unless the
Holders initiating such registration agree to forfeit their right to one demand
registration pursuant to Section 3; provided, further, however, that if at the
time of such withdrawal the Holders have learned of a material adverse change in
the condition, business, or prospects of the Company from that known to the
Holders at the time of their request and have withdrawn the request with
reasonable promptness following disclosure by the Company of such material
adverse change, then the Holders shall not be required to pay any such expenses
and shall retain their rights pursuant to Section 3. The Holders' respective
portion of such expenses shall be borne on a pro rata basis according to the
number of shares initially requested to be included in such registration.
"Company Out-of-Pocket Expenses" means all the reasonable out-of-pocket expenses
actually incurred by the Company in connection with such registration (but
specifically excluding any internal costs associated with such registration).

                                       7
<PAGE>   8
         SECTION 8. UNDERWRITING REQUIREMENTS. In connection with any offering
involving an underwriting of shares of the Company's capital stock, the Company
shall not be required under Section 4 to include any of the Holders' securities
in such underwriting unless they accept the terms of the underwriting as
reasonably agreed upon between the Company and the underwriters selected by it
(or by other persons entitled to select the underwriters), and then only in such
quantity as the underwriters determine in their sole discretion will not
jeopardize the success of the offering by the Company. If the total amount of
securities, including Registrable Securities, requested by stockholders to be
included in such offering exceeds the amount of securities sold other than by
the Company that the underwriters determine in their sole discretion is
compatible with the success of the offering, then the Company shall be required
to include in the offering only that number of such securities, including
Registrable Securities, which the underwriters determine in their sole
discretion will not jeopardize the success of the offering (the securities so
included to be apportioned pro rata among the selling stockholders according to
the total amount of securities requested to be included therein owned by each
selling stockholder or in such other proportions as shall mutually be agreed to
by such selling stockholders) but in no event shall:

                           (i) the amount of securities of the holders of
         securities exercising their piggyback registration rights pursuant to
         this Agreement and the Existing Registration Rights Agreements included
         in the offering be reduced below thirty percent (30%) of the total
         amount of securities included in such offering (it being understood
         that such holders of piggy-back registration rights shall be entitled
         to include shares of securities on a pro rata basis according to the
         total amount of securities requested to be included in any such
         offering by each such holder); or

                           (ii) notwithstanding (i) above, any shares being sold
         by a stockholder exercising a demand registration right pursuant to
         Section 3 or any other demand registration right be excluded from such
         offering.

The parties acknowledge that if an underwritten offering is effected in
connection with a demand registration request pursuant to Section 3 hereof, the
cutback provisions of such section shall apply to the Holders of Registrable
Securities in the event marketing factors require a limitation of the number of
shares to be underwritten in connection with such an offering. For purposes of
the preceding parenthetical concerning apportionment, for any selling
stockholder which is a holder of Registrable Securities and which is a
partnership or corporation, the partners, retired partners and stockholders of
such holder, or the estates and family members of any such partners and retired
partners and any trusts for the benefit of any of the foregoing persons who is
controlled by, or under common control with a selling stockholder shall be
deemed to be a single "selling stockholder," and any pro-rata reduction with
respect to such "selling stockholder" shall be based upon the aggregate amount
of shares carrying registration rights owned by all entities and individuals
included in such "selling stockholder," as defined in this sentence.

         SECTION 9. DELAY OF REGISTRATION. No Holder shall have any right to
obtain or seek an injunction restraining or otherwise delaying any such
registration as the result of any controversy that might arise with respect to
the interpretation or implementation of this Agreement.

                                       8
<PAGE>   9
         SECTION 10. INDEMNIFICATION. In the event any Registrable Securities
are included in a registration statement under this Agreement:

                  (a) To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Company will
indemnify and hold harmless each Holder, such Holder's officers, directors,
members, partners, employees and agents, any underwriter (as defined in the
Securities Act) for such Holder and each person, if any, who controls such
Holder or underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange
Act, against any losses, claims, damages, or liabilities (joint or several) to
which they may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, or
other federal or state law, insofar as such losses, claims, damages, or
liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any
of the following statements, omissions or violations (collectively a
"Violation"): (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material
fact contained in such registration statement, including any preliminary
prospectus or final prospectus contained therein or any amendments or
supplements thereto, (ii) 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, or (iii) any violation or alleged violation by the
Company of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, any state securities law or any
rule or regulation promulgated under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or any
state securities law; and the Company will pay to each such Holder, officer,
director, member, partner, employee, agent, underwriter or controlling person,
as incurred, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in
connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage,
liability, or action; provided, however, that the indemnity agreement contained
in this Section 10(a) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such
loss, claim, damage, liability, or action if such settlement is effected without
the consent of the Company (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld),
nor shall the Company be liable in any such case for any such loss, claim,
damage, liability, or action to the extent that it arises out of or is based
upon a Violation which occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with written
information furnished expressly for use in connection with such registration by
any such Holder, underwriter or controlling person.

                  (b) To the extent permitted by law, each selling Holder will,
severally and not jointly, indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each of its
directors, each of its officers who has signed the registration statement, each
person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities
Act, any underwriter, any other Holder selling securities in such registration
statement and any controlling person of any such underwriter or other Holder,
against any losses, claims, damages, or liabilities (joint or several) to which
any of the foregoing persons may become subject under the Securities Act, the
Exchange Act or other federal or state law, insofar as such losses, claims,
damages, or liabilities (or action in respect thereto) arise out of or are based
upon any Violation, in each case to the extent (and only to the extent) that
such Violation occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with written
information furnished by such Holder expressly for use in connection with such
registration; and each such Holder will pay, as incurred, any legal or other
expenses reasonably incurred by any person intended to be indemnified pursuant
to this Section 10(b), in connection with investigating or defending any such
loss, claim, damage, liability, or action; provided, however, that the indemnity
agreement contained in this Section 10(b) shall not apply to amounts paid in
settlement of any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action if such
settlement is effected without the consent of the Holder, which consent shall
not be unreasonably withheld; provided, further, that, in no event shall any

                                       9
<PAGE>   10
indemnity under this Section 10(b) exceed the net proceeds from the offering
received by such Holder.

                  (c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this
Section 10 of notice of the commencement of any action (including any
governmental action), such indemnified party will if a claim in respect thereof
is to be made against any indemnifying party under this Section 10, deliver to
the indemnifying party a written notice of the commencement thereof and the
indemnifying party shall have the right to participate in, and, to the extent
the indemnifying party so desires, jointly with any other indemnifying party
similarly noticed, to assume the defense thereof with counsel mutually
satisfactory to the parties; provided, however, that an indemnified party
(together with all other indemnified parties which may be represented without
conflict by one counsel) shall have the right to retain one separate counsel
with the fees and expenses to be paid by the indemnifying party, if (i)
representation of such indemnified party by the counsel retained by the
indemnifying party would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing
interests between such indemnified party and any other party represented by such
counsel in such proceeding, (ii) there may be one or more legal defenses
available to it that are different from or additional to those available to the
indemnifying party or (iii) the indemnifying party fails to assume the defense
of any such action with legal counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified
party. The failure to deliver written notice to the indemnifying party within a
reasonable time of the commencement of any such action, if materially
prejudicial to its ability to defend such action, shall relieve such
indemnifying party of any liability to the indemnified party under this Section
10 but only to the extent that the indemnifying party is actually and materially
prejudiced thereby; provided, however, the omission so to deliver written notice
to the indemnifying party will not relieve it of any liability that it may have
to any indemnified party otherwise than under this Section 10.

                  (d) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 10 is
held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to an indemnified
party with respect to any loss, liability, claim, damage, or expense referred to
therein, then the indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified
party hereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such
indemnified party as a result of such loss, liability, claim, damage, or expense
in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the
indemnifying party on the one hand and of the indemnified party on the other in
connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such loss,
liability, claim, damage, or expense as well as any other relevant equitable
considerations. The relative fault of the indemnifying party and of the
indemnified party shall be determined by reference to, among other things,
whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the
omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the
indemnifying party or by the indemnified party and the parties' relative intent,
knowledge, access to information, and opportunity to correct or prevent such
statement or omission. The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and
equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 10(d) were determined by pro
rata allocation or by any other method of allocation that does not take into
account the equitable considerations referred to in this paragraph.

                  (e) Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that the
provisions on indemnification and contribution contained in the underwriting
agreement entered into in connection with an underwritten public offering are in
conflict with the foregoing provisions, the provisions in the underwriting
agreement shall control.

                                       10
<PAGE>   11
                  (f) The indemnity and contribution covenants contained in this
Section 10 shall remain operative and in full and effect regardless of (i) any
investigation made by or on behalf of a Holder or any person controlling a
Holder, (ii) any sale of any Registrable Securities pursuant to this Agreement
and receipt by the Holders of the proceeds thereof or (iii) any termination of
this Agreement for any reason.

         SECTION 11. REPORTS UNDER SECURITIES EXCHANGE ACT OF 1934. With a view
to making available to the Holders the benefits of Rule 144 promulgated under
the Securities Act ("Rule 144") and any other rule or regulation of the SEC that
may at any time permit a Holder to sell securities of the Company to the public
without registration or pursuant to a Short-Form Registration Statement, the
Company agrees to:

                  (a) make and keep public information available, as those terms
are understood and defined in Rule 144;

                  (b) 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
and take such other action as is necessary to permit the Company to file
Short-Form Registration Statements; and

                  (c) furnish to any Holder, so long as the Holder owns any
Registrable Securities, forthwith upon request (i) a written statement by the
Company that it has complied with the reporting requirements of Rule 144, the
Securities Act and the Exchange Act, or that it qualifies as a registrant whose
securities may be resold pursuant to a Short-Form Registration Statement (at any
time after it so qualifies), (ii) a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly
report of the Company and such other reports and documents so filed by the
Company, and (iii) such other information as may be reasonably requested in
availing any Holder of any rule or regulation of the SEC which permits the
selling of any such securities without registration or pursuant to a Short-Form
Registration Statement.

         SECTION 12. RULE 144A. The Company agrees, at any time when any Holder
desires to make sales of any Registrable Securities in reliance on Rule 144A
under the Securities Act (or any successor rule or regulation) ("Rule 144A") and
Rule 144A is available to such Holder with respect to the proposed sales, to
provide such Holder or any prospective purchaser therefrom with the information
required by Rule 144A (the "144A Information"), and to otherwise reasonably
cooperate with the Holder in connection with such sale. The Company's
obligations under this Section shall at all times be contingent upon the Holder
obtaining from a prospective purchaser an agreement to take all reasonable
precautions to safeguard the 144A Information from disclosure to anyone other
than employees of and advisors to the prospective purchaser who require access
to the 144A Information for the sole purpose of evaluating its purchase of the
Company's securities.

         SECTION 13. LIMITATIONS ON SUBSEQUENT REGISTRATION RIGHTS. From and
after the date of this Agreement, the Company shall not, without the prior
written consent of the Holders of a Majority of the Registrable Securities,
enter into any agreement with any holder or prospective holder of any securities
of the Company which would allow such holder or prospective holder (a) to
include such securities in any registration filed under Section 3 hereof

                                       11
<PAGE>   12
unless under the terms of such agreement, such holder or prospective holder may
include such securities in any such registration only to the extent that the
inclusion of his securities will not reduce the amount of the Registrable
Securities of the Holders which is included or (b) to make a demand registration
which should result in such registration statement being declared effective
within one hundred twenty (120) days after the effective date of any
registration effected pursuant to Section 3.

         SECTION 14.  MISCELLANEOUS.

                  (a) Recapitalizations, Exchanges, Etc. The provisions of this
Agreement shall apply, to the full extent set forth herein with respect to the
Registrable Securities, to any and all shares of equity securities of the
Company or any successor or assign of the Company (whether by merger,
consolidation, sale of assets or otherwise) which may be issued in respect of,
in exchange for or in substitution of, the Registrable Securities and shall be
appropriately adjusted for any stock dividends, splits, reverse splits,
combinations, recapitalizations and the like occurring after the date hereof.

                  (b) No Inconsistent Agreements. The Company shall not enter
into any agreement with respect to its securities that is inconsistent with the
rights granted to the Holders of the Registrable Securities in this Agreement.

                  (c) Acknowledgment of Previous Grants of Registration Rights.
BancAmerica and GE acknowledge that the Company has previously granted
registration rights to other holders of securities of the Company pursuant to
the Existing Rights Agreements and that the rights of holders of Registrable
Securities under Section 4 hereof shall be pari passu with the piggyback rights
of the holders under the Existing Rights Agreements, and that the Holders'
rights under this Agreement are subject to the rights of the holders under the
Existing Rights Agreements.

                  (d) Amendments and Waivers. Except as otherwise provided
herein, the provisions of this Agreement may not be amended, modified or
supplemented, and waivers or consents to departures from the provisions hereof
may not be given unless agreed to in writing by the Company and the holders of a
Majority of the Registrable Securities.

                  (f) Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall inure to the
benefit of and be binding upon the successors and permitted assigns of each of

pursuant to this Agreement may be assigned (but only with all related
obligations) by a Holder to a transferee or assignee of such securities who,
after such assignment or transfer, holds at least 100,000 shares of Registrable
Securities (subject to appropriate adjustment for stock splits, stock dividends,
combinations and other recapitalizations) (or, if the transferee holds less than
100,000 Registrable Shares, such transferee is a general partner or limited
partner of a Holder hereunder); provided: (a) the Company is, within a
reasonable time after such transfer, furnished with written notice of the name
and address of such transferee or assignee and the securities with respect to
which such registration

                                       13
<PAGE>   14
rights are being assigned; (b) such transferee or assignee agrees in writing to
be bound by and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement; and (c)
such assignment shall be effective only if immediately following such transfer
the further disposition of such securities by the transferee or assignee is
restricted under the Act. Notwithstanding any transfer of such rights, all of
the obligations of the Company hereunder shall survive any such transfer and
shall continue to inure to the benefit of all transferees.

                  (g) Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number
of counterparts and by the parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of
which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken
together shall constitute one and the same agreement.

                  (h) Headings. The headings in this Agreement are for
convenience of reference only and shall not limit or otherwise affect the
meaning hereof.

                  (i) Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and
construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard
to the principles of conflicts of law of such state.

                  (j) Waiver of Jury Trial. TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY
APPLICABLE LAW, THE COMPANY, BANCAMERICA AND GE IRREVOCABLY WAIVE THEIR
RESPECTIVE RIGHTS TO A JURY TRIAL WITH RESPECT TO ANY ACTION, CLAIM OR OTHER
PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF ANY DISPUTE IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT, ANY
RIGHTS OR OBLIGATIONS HEREUNDER, OR THE PERFORMANCE OF SUCH RIGHTS AND
OBLIGATIONS.

                  (k) Severability. If any one or more of the provisions
contained herein, or the application thereof in any circumstances, is held
invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect for any reason, the validity,
legality and enforceability of any such provision in every other respect and of
the remaining provisions hereof shall not be in any way impaired, it being
intended that all of the rights and privileges of the holders of Registrable
Securities shall be enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law.

                  (l) Entire Agreement. This Agreement is intended by the
parties as a final expression of their agreement and intended to be a complete
and exclusive statement of the agreement and understanding of the parties hereto
in respect of the subject matter contained herein. There are no restrictions,
promises, warranties or undertakings, other than those set forth or referred to
herein. This Agreement supersedes all prior agreements and understandings
between the parties with respect to such subject matter.
