                          GOVERNANCE OF THE CORPORATION

         Section 2.1. OFFICERS AND DIRECTORS OF THE CORPORATION.

         (a) The Corporation and the Shareholders agree that the Board of
Directors of the Corporation shall consist of five (5) natural persons. It is
agreed that immediately following the execution of this Agreement and thereafter
during the Term (as hereinafter defined) of this Agreement, the Shareholders
shall vote, and shall cause their respective Affiliates to vote, their shares of
Stock, and those shares beneficially owned by them, respectively (within the
meaning of Rule 13d-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934), and the

directors nominated by written instruction delivered by Series D Preferred
Shareholders holding two-thirds or more of the outstanding shares of Series D
Preferred Stock of the Corporation (the "REQUIRED PREFERRED SHAREHOLDERS") as
members of the Corporation's Board of Directors (the "PREFERRED SHAREHOLDER
DIRECTORS"), and to elect or appoint as successors thereto, respectively, solely
those replacements nominated as aforesaid.

         (b) Without limiting any other provision contained in paragraph (a)
immediately preceding, in the event that the Preferred Shareholder Directors
have not been elected or appointed prior to June 30, 2000, the Required
Preferred Shareholders shall have the right, exercisable by written notice to

Directors to consist of nine natural persons, four of whom shall be nominated by

         (c) The Board of Directors, may appoint such committees as they deem
appropriate, with the authority to act on all matters delegated to such

The Shareholders and the Corporation agree that immediately following the
execution of this Agreement and thereafter during the Term, such committees
shall be created and shall include (i) an executive committee, (ii) an audit and
finance committee and (iii) a compensation committee. The duties and functions
of such committees shall be set forth in the Bylaws or in the action of the
Board of Directors creating such committees; provided that the mandate of each
such committee shall be subject to approval by each of the Preferred Shareholder
Directors. Each of the Preferred Shareholder Directors shall have the right to
serve on each of the committees; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that a majority of the
directors serving on such committees shall be independent directors.

change in control of the Corporation. If the Required Preferred Shareholders
notify Mansur of their intention to effect a change in control, the Corporation
and its Board of Directors and the Shareholders will obtain the immediate
resignation of a standing independent director from the Board of Directors,
failing which the Board of Directors shall forthwith be expanded by two. The
vacancy or vacancies in the Board of Directors resulting from the resignation of
such standing independent director (other than the Preferred Shareholder
Directors) or such expansion shall be filled by a nominee of the Required
Preferred Shareholders. During the Term of this Agreement, the Shareholders
agree to vote, and shall cause their respective Affiliates to vote, their shares
of Stock, and those shares beneficially owned by them, respectively, to elect
and reelect the director nominees of the Required Preferred Shareholders and any
replacements therefor.

         Section 2.3. ACTIONS OF BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND SHAREHOLDERS.

         (a) Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, by law or in the
Articles or Bylaws as in effect on the date hereof, all actions of the Board of
Directors or shareholders of the Corporation shall be taken upon or pursuant to
a majority vote of the Board of Directors or of the votes held by beneficial
owners of shares of Stock entitled to vote, respectively, who are present in
person or by proxy at the corresponding meeting (provided a quorum exists).

         (b) During the Term, the Corporation, the Board of Directors (including
any committee or subcommittee thereof) and the Shareholders shall not take any
of the actions, enter into any commitment to take any of the actions, or
otherwise agree to take any of the actions, specified below unless such action
has been first approved by all of the Preferred Shareholder Directors:

         significant businesses;

                  (iii) the issuance of capital stock or convertible securities
         of the Corporation, in a single transaction or in a series of related
         transactions within any twelve month period (other than issuances of
         capital stock pursuant to (a) the exercise of options granted or to be
         granted under the corporation's 1996 Executive Incentive Compensation

         related transactions within any twelve month period beginning on the
         date hereof, of any Indebtedness by the Corporation in an amount
         exceeding $250,000 in the aggregate (other than Indebtedness which
         constitutes financing for commitments of the Corporation or any
         Subsidiary thereof existing as of the date hereof, the refinancing or
         successive refinancing of Indebtedness of the Corporation or any
         Subsidiary (other than the Notes) existing as of the date hereof, and

granted to it under Section 2.3(b) above shall be made in good faith and subject
to fiduciary obligations owed to the corporation and its shareholders.

of its provisions. If the Parties to this Agreement are forced to institute
legal proceedings to enforce their rights in accordance with the provisions of
this Agreement, they shall be entitled to recover their reasonable attorneys'
fees and court costs incurred in enforcing such rights.

         Section 5.9. BUSINESS DAYS. Whenever the terms of this Agreement call
