changes in the vesting provisions or other terms of such agreement or understanding as the result
of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

charter, bylaws or other governing documents of the Company or any law or regulation applicable to
the Company or any of its direct or indirect Subsidiaries or any material agreement, contract or
understanding of the Company or any of its direct or indirect Subsidiaries.

          (e) Required Filings and Consents. The execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Company

permit of, or filing by the Company with or notification by the Company to, any governmental or
regulatory authority, except for the Bermuda Monetary Authority.

this Agreement by such New Shareholder does not, and the performance by such
New Shareholder of

12

 

its obligations hereunder and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby will not,

the New Shares for long-term investment and (ii) the New Shares are being purchased by such New
Shareholder for its own account for investment purposes, and not with a view to any distribution

purpose. Such New Shareholder and its Representatives have been provided with full and complete
access to the Representatives, properties, offices, plants and other facilities, books and records
of Company and its subsidiaries and other information that they have requested in connection with
their investigation of the Company and its Subsidiaries and the transactions contemplated hereby.
Such New Shareholder is not relying on any statement, representation or warranty, oral or written,
express or implied, made by the Company or any of its Affiliates or Representatives, except as
expressly set forth in this Agreement, the First Amended and Restated Second Lien Credit Agreement
among the Second Lien Shareholders and certain Subsidiaries of the Company, the Second Amendment
and the Purchase Agreement. Neither the Company nor any of its Affiliates or Representatives shall
have any liability to the New Shareholder or any of its Affiliates or Representatives resulting
from the use of any information, documents or materials made available to such New Shareholder,

     5.2 Removal of Restrictive Legend. The Securities Legend set forth above shall be removed by
the Company from any certificate evidencing New Shares upon delivery of reasonably satisfactory
evidence to the Company that a registration statement under the Securities Act is at that time in

certificate, if any, representing the New Shares shall be stamped or otherwise imprinted with a
legend substantially in the following form:

IN ADDITION, THE SECURITIES ARE SUBJECT TO CERTAIN

          (f) Such Transfer of Second Lien Shares: (i) would not violate or be reasonably likely to
violate applicable state and federal securities laws and (ii) would not, to the transferor’s
knowledge, cause or be reasonably likely to cause the Company to violate or become a reporting
company under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, the Investment Company Act or other federal or
state securities regulations or to be required to register a class of equity securities pursuant to
Section 12(g) of the Exchange Act or the rules and regulations adopted thereunder.

Sections 5.4(a), 5.4(b), 5.4(c), 5.4(d), 5.4(e) or 5.4(f) (without taking into account any
knowledge qualifier contained in such Section). Upon failure of a Transfer as a result of this
Section 5.4, any Shares being transferred shall revert back to Transferor. The transfer
restrictions in this Section 5.4 shall terminate upon a Qualified IPO, as defined in the Amended
and Restated Bye-Laws.

     5.5 Second Lien Shareholders Loan Transfers Prior to Closing. If the Loans are Transferred

          (e) Such transferee provides the Company reasonably satisfactory evidence that the issuance
would satisfy Sections 5.5(a) and 5.5(b) (and provided that, with respect to 5.5(b), the Company
may require, at its sole discretion, an opinion of counsel to such effect).

          (f) The transfer of such Second Lien Shares to the transferee has
received the prior approval of the Bermuda Monetary Authority (if required).

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary above, the Company shall have the right, at its sole
discretion within such two-Business Day period, to reject any proposed issuance to any transferee
of the Loans if it would reasonably be expected to fail to satisfy Sections 5.5(a), 5.5(b), 5.5(c),
5.5(d) (without taking into account any knowledge qualifier contained in such Section) or 5.5(e).

7. Preemptive Rights.

     7.1 General. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 7, if at any time
following the consummation of the First Closing the Company proposes to issue any Equity Securities
(a “Triggering Issuance”), each Shareholder shall have the right to participate in such Triggering
Issuance by subscribing for up to its Pro Rata Portion. With respect to each
Shareholder, “Pro Rata Portion” shall mean the number of Equity Securities that is the product of
(i) the aggregate number of Equity Securities proposed to be issued in the Triggering Issuance and
(ii) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of Ordinary Class Shares owned by or that
would be received upon conversion of the Series A Preference Shares and/or Series B Preference
Shares, as the case may be, owned by such Shareholder, immediately prior to Triggering Issuance,
and the denominator of which is the sum of the Ordinary Class Shares owned by or that would be
received upon conversion of the Series A Preference Shares and/or Series B Preference Shares, as
the case may be, owned by all Shareholders, immediately prior to the Triggering Issuance.

     Notwithstanding the above, a Triggering Issuance shall not include, and the preemptive rights
provided in Section 7.1 shall not apply to the following issuances of Equity Securities: (i) any
Ordinary Shares issued upon conversion of the Series A Ordinary Shares, Series B Ordinary Shares,
or any other Shares issued upon conversion of any such Series A Ordinary Shares, Series B Ordinary
Shares, Series A Preference Shares or Series B Preference Shares; (ii) any securities issued in
connection with any Share split, Share dividend or other similar event in which all Shareholders of
the same class are entitled to participate on a pro rata basis; (iii) any securities issued upon
the exercise, conversion or exchange of any security in issue or outstanding as of the date hereof;
(iv) any securities issued pursuant to the acquisition of another Person by the Company by
consolidation, amalgamation, merger, purchase of assets, or other reorganization in which the
Company acquires, in a single transaction or series of related transactions, assets of such other
Person or 50% or more of the voting power of such other Person or 50% or more of the equity
ownership of such other Person; (v) up to 32,530,970 (as adjusted for stock splits, stock
dividends, recapitalizations and the like) Shares (or options to purchase Shares) (including any of
such Ordinary Class Shares or options which are repurchased) issued to officers, directors,
employees and/or consultants of the Company or its subsidiaries under any share purchase or share
option plan or agreement or other incentive compensation arrangement; (v) any Shares issued in
connection with any capital reorganization, recapitalization or reclassification, (vi) any Shares
issued under Section 2 or (vii) any Shares issued in a public offering.

     7.2 Procedures. In the event that the Company proposes to undertake a Triggering
Issuance, it shall provide the Shareholders fifteen Business Days notice setting forth in
reasonable detail the terms and conditions of the Triggering Issuance. Each Shareholder wishing to
participate in the Triggering Issuance shall notify the Company in writing at least five Business
Days after delivery of such notice of its irrevocable undertaking to
participate in the Triggering Issuance and the Company shall allow such Shareholder to
participate in the

18

 

Triggering Issuance up to its Pro Rata Portion on the same terms and conditions as the
Triggering Issuance.

     7.3 Technology Holdings Preemptive Rights. Technology Holdings, on behalf of itself
and each of its transferees of Shares, hereby agrees that the rights granted to Technology Holdings
pursuant to this Section 7 supersede any preemptive rights or similar rights granted to Technology
Holdings pursuant to any other agreement, including without limitation the agreements set forth on
Schedule 3.1(b) hereto. Technology Holdings hereby waives any preemptive or similar rights
it has today or may have in the future as a result of the issuances contemplated by this Agreement.

     7.4 Termination. The preemptive rights under this Section 7 shall terminate upon a
Qualified IPO (as such term is defined in the Amended and Restated Bye-laws).

8. Registration Rights.

     8.1 Piggyback Registrations. Commencing 180 days after a Qualified IPO (as such term
is defined in the Amended and Restated Bye-laws), the Company shall notify each Holder in writing
(a “Piggyback Notice”) at least 30 days prior to (x) filing any registration statement to effect a
registration of Ordinary Shares on Form S-3/F-3 or (y) filing any registration statement to effect
a registration of Ordinary Shares under the Securities Act on behalf of Technology Holdings, and
will afford each such Holder an opportunity to include in such registration statement all or any
part of the Registrable Securities then held by such Holder as provided in this Section 8.1. Each
such Holder desiring to include in any such registration statement all or any part of the
Registrable Securities held by such Holder shall within twenty days after receipt of the Piggyback
Notice from the Company, so notify the Company in writing, and in such notice shall inform the
Company of the number of its Registrable Securities such Holder wishes to include in such
registration statement (it being agreed that any such election to include Shares shall be
irrevocable). If a Holder decides not to include all of its Registrable Securities in any
registration statement thereafter filed by the Company, such Holder shall nevertheless continue to
have the right to include any Registrable Securities held by it in any subsequent registration
statement which shall trigger a Piggyback Notice, all upon the terms and conditions set forth
herein.

     8.2 Underwriting.

          (a) If a registration statement with respect to which the Company gives notice under this
Section 8 is for an underwritten offering, then the Company shall so advise the Holders in the
Piggyback Notice. In such event, the right of any such Holder’s Registrable Securities to be
included in a registration pursuant to this Section 8 shall be conditioned upon such Holder’s
participation in such underwriting and the inclusion of such Holder’s Registrable Securities in the
underwriting to the extent provided herein. All Holders proposing to distribute their Registrable
Securities through such underwriting shall enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form
with the managing underwriter or underwriters selected for such underwriting (including a market
stand-off agreement of up to 180 days if required by such underwriter or underwriters).
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if the managing underwriter(s) determine(s)
in good faith that marketing factors require a limitation of the

19

 

number of shares to be underwritten, then the managing underwriter(s) may exclude shares from the
registration and the underwriting (such exclusion, a “Cutback”), and the number of shares that may
be included in the registration and the underwriting shall be allocated, first to the Company, and
second, to each of the Holders requesting inclusion of their Registrable Securities in such
registration statement pursuant to this Section 8 on a pro rata basis with any other holders of
securities of the Company participating in such registration based on the total number of
Registrable Securities then held by each such Holder (calculated on an as-converted basis) and
other holders of securities of the Company; provided, that the right of the underwriter(s) to
exclude shares (including Registrable Securities) from the registration and underwriting as
described above shall be restricted so that, subject to the rights of any holders granted
registration rights on par with the rights provided for in this Section 8, all shares that are not
Registrable Securities and are held by any other Person, including, without limitation, any Person
who is an employee, officer or director of the Company (or any subsidiary of the Company) shall
first be excluded from such registration and underwriting before any Registrable Securities are so
excluded. If all the Registrable Securities requested by the Holders have been included, the other
shareholders of the Company may include any Ordinary Shares on a pro rata basis. For any Holder
that is a partnership, the Holder and the partners and retired partners 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, and for any Holder that is a corporation, the Holder and all
corporations that are Affiliates of such Holder, shall be deemed to be a single “Holder,” and any
pro rata reduction with respect to such “Holder” shall be based upon the aggregate amount of shares
carrying registration rights owned by all Persons included in such “Holder,” as defined in this
sentence.

          (b) Expenses. All expenses incurred in connection with a registration pursuant to this
Section 8, including, without limitation, all federal and “blue sky” registration, filing and
qualification fees, printers’ and accounting fees, fees and disbursements of counsel for the
Company and reasonable fees and disbursements of one counsel for the Holders (but excluding
underwriters’ and brokers’ discounts and commissions relating to shares sold by the Holders), shall
be borne by the Company. Each Holder participating in a registration pursuant to this Section 8
shall bear such Holder’s proportionate share (based on the total number of shares sold in such
registration other than for the account of the Company) of all discounts, commissions or other
amounts payable to underwriter(s) or brokers in connection with such offering by the Holders.

     8.3 Obligations of the Company. Whenever required to effect the registration of any
Registrable Securities under this Agreement, the Company shall use reasonable efforts to, as
expeditiously as reasonably possible:

          (a) Registration Statement. Prepare and file with the SEC a registration statement
with respect to such Registrable Securities and use its reasonable best efforts to cause such
registration statement to become effective, provided, that the Company shall not be required to
keep any such registration statement effective for more than 90 days.

          (b) Amendments and Supplements. Prepare and file with the SEC 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

20

 

of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all securities covered by such
registration statement.

          (c) Prospectuses. Furnish to each Holder a reasonable number 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 the Registrable Securities owned by them that are included in such registration.

          (d) Blue Sky. Use its reasonable 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 jurisdictions.

          (e) Underwriting. 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(s) of such offering. Each Holder participating in such underwriting shall also
enter into and perform its obligations under such an agreement.

          (f) Notification. 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) Opinion and Comfort Letter. Furnish, at the request of any Holder requesting
registration of Registrable Securities, on the date that such Registrable Securities are delivered
to the underwriter(s) for sale, 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 as of 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 underwritten public offering and reasonably satisfactory to
a majority in interest of the Holders requesting registration, addressed to the underwriters, if
any, and to the Holders requesting registration of Registrable Securities and (ii) a “comfort”
letter dated as of 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 and reasonably satisfactory to a majority in
interest of the Holders requesting registration, addressed to the underwriters, if any, and to the
Holders requesting registration of Registrable Securities.

          (h) Marketing. Cause its employees and personnel to use their reasonable best efforts
to support the marketing of the Registrable Securities (including, without limitation, the
participation in “road shows,” at the request of the underwriters or the holders of a majority of
the Registrable Securities to be included in such registration) to the extent possible taking into
account the Company’s business needs and the requirements of the marketing process.

21

 

          (i) Approvals. Use its reasonable best efforts to cause such Registrable Securities to
be registered with or approved by such governmental authorities as may be reasonably necessary by
virtue of the business and operations of the Company to enable the purchasers thereof to consummate
the disposition of such Registrable Securities.

          (j) Inspection Rights. Make available for inspection by any one lead underwriter
participating in any such registration and its attorneys, accountants or other agents retained by
any such underwriter (collectively, the “Inspectors”), all pertinent financial and other records,
pertinent corporate documents and properties of the Company (collectively, the “Records”), as shall
be reasonably necessary to enable it, for itself and on behalf of the underwriters, to exercise its
due diligence responsibility under the Securities Act, and cause the Company’s officers, directors
and employees to supply all information (together with the Records, the “Information”) reasonably
requested by any such Inspector in connection with the preparation and filing of such registration
statement. Any of the Information which the Company determines in good faith to be confidential,
and of which determination the Inspectors are so notified, shall not be disclosed by the Inspectors
unless (1) the disclosure of such Information is necessary to avoid or correct a misstatement or
omission in the registration statement, (2) the release of such Information is ordered pursuant to
a subpoena or other order from a court of competent jurisdiction or (3) such Information has been
made generally available to the public. The seller of Registrable Securities agrees that it will,
upon learning that disclosure of such Information is sought in a court of competent jurisdiction,
give notice to the Company and allow the Company, at the Company’s expense, to undertake
appropriate action to prevent disclosure of the Information it deems confidential.

          (k) Transfer Agent. Provide a transfer agent and registrar (which may be the same
entity and which may be the Company) for such Registrable Securities to the extent not already
provided.

          (l) Listing. Use its reasonable best efforts to list such Registrable Securities on
any securities exchange or automated quotation system on which any Shares of the Company are
listed.

          (m) SEC. Otherwise use its reasonable best efforts to comply with all applicable rules
and regulations of the Commission and make available to its security holders, as soon as reasonably
practicable, earnings statements (which need not be audited) covering a period of twelve months
beginning within three months after the effective date of the registration statement, which
earnings statements shall satisfy the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act.

          (n) CUSIP. Not later than the effective date of any registration statement (the
“Registration Date”), provide a CUSIP number for the Securities registered under such registration
statement and provide the trustee with printed certificates for such Securities in a form eligible
for deposit with The Depository Trust Company.’

          (o) Furnish Information. It shall be a condition precedent to the obligations of the
Company to take any action pursuant to Section 8 that the selling Holders shall furnish to the
Company such information as may be reasonably requested by the Company, including, but not

22

 

limited to, information regarding themselves, the Registrable Securities held by them, and the
intended method of disposition of such Securities as shall be required to timely effect the
registration of their Registrable Securities.

     8.4 Indemnification. In the event any Registrable Securities are included in a
registration statement under Sections 8:

          (a) By the Company. To the extent permitted by law, the Company will indemnify and
hold harmless each Holder, the partners, officers, directors, employees and agents of each Holder,
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) or actions (“Liabilities”)
to which they may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or other federal, state
or foreign 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 or any document incident to registration or qualification
of any securities of the Company;

               (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 federal, state or foreign securities law or any rule or regulation promulgated under the
Securities Act, the Exchange Act or any federal, state or foreign securities law in connection with
the offering covered by such registration statement.

The Company will reimburse each such Holder, partner, officer, director, employee, agent,
underwriter or controlling Person of such Holder for any legal or other expenses reasonably
incurred by them, as incurred, in connection with investigating or defending any such Liability;
provided, that the indemnity agreement contained in this subsection 8.4(a) shall not apply to
amounts paid in settlement of any such Liability 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 Liability 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 the preparation of such registration statement, preliminary
prospectus, final prospectus, amendments, supplement or document by such Holder, partner, officer,
director, employee, agent, underwriter or controlling Person of such Holder.

          (b) By Selling Holders. To the extent permitted by law, each selling Holder will
indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each of its directors, officers, employees and agents and
each Person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act, any
underwriter and any other Holder selling securities under such registration statement or any of
such other Holder’s partners, officers, directors, employees or agents or any Person who

23

 

controls such Holder within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, against any
Liabilities to which the Company or any such director, officer, employee, agent, controlling
Person, underwriter or any such other Holder, partner, director, officer, employee or agent of such
other Holder may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or other federal, state
or foreign law, insofar as such Liabilities 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
the preparation of such registration statement, preliminary prospectus, final prospectus,
amendment, supplement or document; and each such Holder will reimburse any legal or other expenses
reasonably incurred by the Company or any such director, officer, employee, agent, controlling
person, underwriter or other Holder, partner, officer, director, employee, agent or controlling
person of such other Holder in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim,
damage, liability or action: provided, that the indemnity agreement contained in this subsection
8.4(b) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such Liability if such settlement is
effected without the consent of the Holder, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld; and
provided, that the total amounts payable in indemnity by a Holder under this Section 8.4(b) or is
contributed under Section 8.4(e) shall not exceed the net proceeds actually received by such Holder
from the sale of the Registrable Securities effected pursuant to the related registration.

          (c) Notice. Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 8.4 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 8.4, 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, that an indemnified
party shall have the right to retain its own counsel, with the fees and expenses to be paid by the
indemnifying party, if representation of such indemnified party by the counsel retained by the
indemnifying party would be inappropriate due to actual or potential conflicts of interest between
such indemnified party and any other party represented by such counsel in such proceeding. The
failure to deliver written notice to the indemnifying party within a reasonable time of the
commencement of any such action shall relieve such indemnifying party of liability to the
indemnified party under this Section 8.4 to the extent the indemnifying party is actually and
materially prejudiced as a result thereof, but the omission so to deliver written notice to the
indemnified party will not relieve it of any liability that it may have to any indemnified party
otherwise than under this Section 8.4.

          (d) Defect Eliminated in Final Prospectus. The foregoing indemnity agreements of the
Company and the Holders are subject to the condition that, insofar as they relate to any Violation
made in a preliminary prospectus but eliminated or remedied in the amended prospectus on file with
the SEC at the time the registration statement in question becomes effective or the amended
prospectus filed with the SEC pursuant to SEC Rule 424(b) (the “Final Prospectus”), such indemnity
agreement shall not inure to the benefit of any Person if a copy of the Final Prospectus was timely
furnished to the indemnified party and was furnished to the Person asserting the Liability at or prior to the
time such action is required by the Securities Act.

24

 

          (e) Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in this Section 8.4 is
unavailable to an indemnified party under Sections 8.4(a) or (b) with respect to any Liabilities
thereunder, then each indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party, shall, to
the fullest extent permitted by law, contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified
party as a result of such Liabilities in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative
fault of such party in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such
Liabilities, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the
Company and each selling Holder shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether
the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to
state a material fact relates to information supplied by such party and the parties’ relative
intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or
omission.

The Company and each selling Holder agrees that it would not be just and equitable if contribution
pursuant to this Section 8.4(e) were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of
allocation that does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in the
immediately preceding paragraph. The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of
the Liabilities referred to in Sections 8.4(a) and (b) shall be deemed to include, subject to the
limitations set forth above, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified
party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. No person guilty of
fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be
entitled to contribution from any Person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

9. CO-SALE RIGHTS.

     9.1 Co-Sale Right. (a) If any Shareholder or group of Shareholders (the “Selling
Shareholder(s)”), in one or a series of related transactions, proposes to sell, transfer, assign,
exchange or otherwise convey or dispose of all or a portion of the Shares of the Company, or rights
to acquire Shares of the Company, to a Person and/or its Affiliates which would result in such
Person and/or its Affiliates, collectively, holding a majority of all of the aggregate Ordinary
Class Shares outstanding at such time, calculated on an as-converted basis (collectively, the
“Outstanding Shares”), then the Selling Shareholder(s) shall promptly give written notice (the
“Co-Sale Notice”) to each of the other Shareholders at least fifteen Business Days prior to the
closing of such sale. The Co-Sale Notice shall describe in reasonable detail the proposed sale
including, without limitation, the number of shares to be sold or transferred (the “Co-Sale
Shares”), the nature of such sale, the consideration to be paid, and the name and address of each
prospective purchaser or transferee. Each other Shareholder shall have the right, exercisable upon
written notice to the Selling Shareholder(s) within ten Business Days after receipt of the Co-Sale
Notice, to participate in such sale of Co-Sale Shares on the same terms and conditions, including
to sell at the same price per share. To the extent one or more of the other Shareholders exercises
such right of co-sale (the “Co-Sale Right”) in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth
below, the number of Co-Sale Shares that the Selling Shareholder(s) may sell in the relevant
transaction shall be correspondingly reduced. The Co-Sale Right of each
Shareholder shall be subject to the following terms and conditions:

25

 

          (a) Each Shareholder may sell all or any part of that number of the Ordinary Class Shares,
Series A Preference Shares and/or Series B Preference Shares, as the case may be, held by such
Shareholder that is equal to the product obtained by multiplying the aggregate number of shares of
Co-Sale Shares set forth in the Co-Sale Notice by (y) a fraction, the numerator of which is the
aggregate number of Ordinary Class Shares held by such Shareholder at the time of the sale and the
denominator of which is the aggregate number of Ordinary Class Shares held by the Selling
Shareholder(s) and all other Shareholders which are exercising their Co-Sale Rights at such time.

          (b) For purposes of determining any calculations under this Section 9, the number of Ordinary
Class Shares held by any Shareholder or Shareholders, including the Selling Shareholder(s), shall
be calculated on an as-converted basis (e.g., taking into account the sum of the number of Ordinary
Class Shares held by such Shareholder at such time plus the number of Ordinary Class Shares that
would be held by such Shareholder upon conversion of such Shareholders’ Series A Preference Shares
and/or Series B Preference Shares, as applicable).

          (c) Each Shareholder shall effect its participation in the sale by promptly delivering to the
Secretary of the Company a written notice requesting the Secretary to revise the share ledger to
represent the proposed sale of shares to the prospective purchaser upon the closing of the proposed
sale. Such notice shall include the type and number of shares of Outstanding Shares of the Company
which such Shareholder elects to sell; provided, that if the prospective purchaser objects to the
delivery of Series A Preference Shares or Series B
Preference Shares in lieu of Ordinary Class Shares, such holder of Series A Preference Shares
and/or Series B Preference Shares, as the case may be, shall convert such Series A Preference
Shares and/or Series B Preference Shares, as the case may be, into Ordinary Shares and deliver that
number of Ordinary Shares as calculated as provided above. The Company agrees to make any such
conversion concurrent with the actual sale of such shares to the purchaser.

          (d) Upon receipt of notice from the Company that the transfer of such shares in the stock
ledger has occurred, the Selling Shareholder(s) shall concurrently therewith assign to each such
other Shareholder who shall have properly effected its Co-Sale Rights hereunder that portion of the
sale proceeds to which such Shareholder is entitled by reason of its participation in such sale. To
the extent that any prospective purchaser or purchasers prohibit such assignment of proceeds or
otherwise refuse to purchase shares or other securities from a Shareholder exercising its Co-Sale
Rights, the Selling Shareholder(s) shall not sell to such prospective purchaser or purchasers any
shares of Outstanding Shares of the Company unless and until, simultaneously with such sale, the
Selling Shareholder(s) shall purchase such shares of Outstanding Shares of the Company from such
other Shareholder or Shareholders, as the case may be.

          (e) Non-Exercise of Rights. To the extent any Shareholder does not elect to
participate in the sale of Co-Sale Shares in the time periods specified, the Selling Shareholder(s)
may, not later than 120 days following delivery to the other Shareholders of the Co-Sale Notice,
conclude a sale of the Co-Sale Shares on terms and conditions not materially more favorable to the
transferee than those described in the Co-Sale Notice.
Any proposed transfer on terms and conditions materially more favorable than those described
in the Co-Sale Notice or any sale of

26

 

such Co-Sale Shares after the 120 day period, shall be made only after compliance anew with
the provisions of this Section 9.

          (f) Termination. The Co-Sale Rights of the Shareholders shall terminate upon a Qualified IPO
(as such term is defined in the Amended and Restated Bye-laws).

10. Amendment.

     10.1 Amendment of Rights. Any provision of this Agreement may be amended and the
observance thereof may be waived (either generally or in a particular instance and either
retroactively or prospectively), only with the written consent of (i) the Company (ii) Technology
Holdings, (iii) the Majority Second Lien Shareholders, (iv) the Majority Interest Second Lien
Lenders and (v) the Majority Note Purchaser Shareholders; provided, however, that
any amendment that adversely and disproportionately affects a Second Lien Lender or Second Lien
Shareholder, or increases the monetary obligations or liabilities of any such Second Lien Lender or
Second Lien Shareholder, shall require that Second Lien Lender’s or Second Lien Shareholder’s, as
the case may be, written consent.

11. Voting Arrangements.

     11.1 The Company and each of the Shareholders hereby agree to take such action necessary,
including voting or otherwise consenting with respect to the Shares owned by it, or cause any
Representatives designated by such Shareholder to take such action necessary, including voting or
otherwise consenting, as maybe required under applicable Bermuda law, to give full and timely
effect to (1) Bye-Law 3 of the Amended and Restated Bye-Laws with respect to the redemption of the
Preference Shares and (2) Section 12 of this Agreement.

12. Board of Directors.

     12.1 Technology Holdings shall have the right at any time prior to the consummation of the
Third Closing and as long as it continues to hold a majority of the outstanding Ordinary Class
Shares, calculated on an as-if converted basis, to appoint at least a majority of the directors of
the Managing Entities (as defined below). Subject to Sections 12.2(b) and 12.2(c), the holders of a
current majority in interest of the Loans excluding any holder of Loans that also holds Series B2
Preference Shares or Series B2 Ordinary Shares (the “Majority Interest Second Lien Lenders”), as a
group, shall be entitled by written notice to the Company to appoint one director to the board or
other governing body of each of the Company, Bermuda, Ltd. and Stratus, Inc., (the “Managing
Entities”) and such director shall be a member of each committee of such board or governing body
except to the extent such committee was formed to approve a transaction in which that director or
such director’s employer (or its Affiliate) has a material interest or to the extent prohibited by
applicable law. In addition, for so long as The Northwestern Mutual Life Insurance Company is a
holder of Loans, The Northwestern Mutual Life Insurance Company shall have the right to appoint a
designee that is an employee of The Northwestern Mutual Life Insurance Company or its Affiliate as
an observer to the boards and the committees of the Managing Entities. Such observer shall be
subject to all confidentiality and other information sharing limitations (including, without
limitation, any trading restrictions) applicable to any Director, and the Company shall not be
obligated to provide any information to such observer to

27

 

the extent doing so could reasonably be expected to jeopardize any privileges. In addition, by vote
of the majority of the Directors on an applicable board of any of the Managing Entities, such board
may, to the extent the Directors deem it in necessary in good faith, meet in executive session,
without the presence of any observer or other non-director persons, including in order to maintain
any such privilege.

     12.2 Subject to Sections 12.2(b) and 12.2(c), following the consummation of the Third Closing
(if applicable), the Majority Interest Second Lien Lenders, as a group, shall be entitled, by a
written notice to the Company, to appoint the majority of the directors on the board of each of the
Managing Entities (directors appointed by the Majority Interest Second Lien Lenders pursuant to
Sections 12.1 and 12.2, the “Second Lien Lender Designees”), provided that Technology Holdings
shall be entitled to appoint at least three directors to the Managing Entities (such persons, the
“Technology Holdings Designees”, and together with the Second Lien Lender Designees the
“Shareholder Designees”), at any time following the Third Closing.

          (a) The Company shall reimburse each of the Shareholder Designees for their reasonable
out-of-pocket expenses incurred by them for the purpose of attending meetings of the Managing
Entities or committees thereof.

          (b) Upon Discharge, the Majority Interest Second Lien Lenders shall cease to have the rights
to designate any directors to the Managing Entities pursuant to
Section 12.1 or Section 12.2,
provided, however, that the Second Lien Shareholders holding a current majority in
interest in the Series B Preference Shares shall, upon such Discharge, have the right to appoint
one director to the boards or other governing bodies of the Managing Entities, so long as at least
50% of the aggregate outstanding Series B Preference Shares as of the date of such Discharge remain
outstanding. The number of Directors on the boards of the Managing Entities shall be adjusted in
accordance with changes to or removal of the Shareholder Designees pursuant to this Section
12.2(b).

          (c) Each Second Lien Lender Designee must not be, at the time of their appointment to the
board of a Managing Entity, a competitor of the Company or its Affiliates, and if they become a
competitor of the Company or its Affiliates, they shall be automatically removed from the board of
each Managing Entity.

     12.3 Removal of Directors. Each Director is subject to removal at any time for any
reason, or for no reason, by (and only by) the Shareholder or Shareholders which designated such
director.

     12.4 Filling Vacancies. If at any time a vacancy is created on a board of a Managing
Entity by reason of the death, removal or resignation of any of the directors, the Shareholders
agree to take such action, within 20 days of such occurrences, to approve and elect director(s)
designated to fill such vacancy or vacancies in accordance with Sections 12.1 and 12.2.

     12.5 Material Decisions. For so long as the Majority Interest Second Lien Lenders have
the right to appoint a director to the boards of the Managing Entities pursuant to this Section 12,
any action that would require the approval of the board of directors or other governing body of a
Subsidiary of the Company and, in the reasonable judgment of the directors

28

 

on that board, would have a material effect on the Company or such Subsidiary shall require the
prior approval of the Board and the Company shall not permit any of its Subsidiaries from taking
any such material action without first obtaining such prior approval of the Board.

     12.6 Covenant to Vote. Each of the Shareholders shall vote the Shares then owned or
controlled by such Shareholder (i) at any annual or special general meeting of Shareholders of the
Company called for the purpose of voting on the election or removal of directors or (ii) by written
consent of Shareholders of the Company with respect to the election or removal of directors in
favor of the election of the directors nominated or the removal of the directors designated in
accordance with this Section 12.

13.  Environmental.

     13.1 The Company hereby affirmatively covenants to:

          (a) Provide prompt written notice to the Board and Second Lien Shareholders, of any
environmental, health or safety (“EHS”), event or matter reasonably likely to materially adversely
impact the Company’s operations, including, but not limited to notices of violations; fines or
assessments; citations; suits; written complaints or administrative actions alleging violations of
EHS laws; serious personal injury or property damage; unauthorized releases, spills or discharges
of any significant quantities of hazardous substances into the environment or conditions which may
cause the Company to operate in non-compliance with its EHS policies or applicable EHS laws;

          (b) Upon the reasonable request of any member of the Board, provide to the Board, a written report
describing the compliance of the Company with its EHS policies and applicable EHS laws, and
implement such improvements and corrections as may be necessary or appropriate, after consultation
with outside counsel and the Board, to maintain conformance with such policies and laws; and

          (c) Comply with all applicable statutes, laws, ordinances, rules, orders and regulations concerning
labor, industrial hygiene and EHS laws, except where the failure to so comply could not reasonably
be expected to have a material adverse effect on the condition (financial or otherwise), results of
operations, business, or properties of the Company.

14. General Provisions.

     14.1 Notices.

indirectly, shall be governed by and construed exclusively in accordance with the internal laws of
the State of New York without regard to conflict of laws and choice of law.

     14.7 Submission to Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial. The Company and the
Shareholders hereby submit to the non-exclusive general jurisdiction of the courts of the State of
New York, the courts of the United States for the Southern District of New York and appellate
courts from any thereof for purposes of all legal proceedings which may arise hereunder or under
any of the other documents entered into in connection herewith. The Company and the
Shareholders irrevocably waive, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any objection which it may
have or hereafter have to the laying of the venue of any such proceeding brought in such a court
and any claim that any such proceeding brought in such a court has been brought in an inconvenient
forum. The Company and the Shareholders hereby consent to process being served in any such
proceeding by the mailing of a copy thereof by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, to
its address specified in Section 14.1 or in any other manner permitted by law. THE COMPANY AND THE
SHAREHOLDERS HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY, AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVE ANY RIGHTS THEY MAY HAVE TO A
TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION BASED HEREON, OR ARISING OUT OF, UNDER, OR IN CONNECTION
WITH, THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER DOCUMENTS ENTERED INTO IN CONNECTION HEREWITH, OR ANY COURSE OF
CONDUCT, COURSE OF DEALING, OR STATEMENTS (WHETHER VERBAL OR WRITTEN), OF THE COMPANY AND THE
SHAREHOLDERS.

     14.8 Severability. If any term, provision, agreement, covenant or restriction of the
Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction or other authority to be invalid, void or
unenforceable, the remainder of the terms, provisions, agreements, covenants and restrictions of
this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or
invalidated so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is not effected in any manner materially adverse to any
party. Upon such a determination, the parties shall negotiate in good faith to modify this
Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in an
acceptable manner in order that the transactions contemplated hereby be consummated as originally
contemplated to the fullest extent possible.

     14.9 Third Parties. Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to
confer upon any Person, other than the parties hereto and their permitted successors and assigns,
any rights or remedies under or by reason of this Agreement.

     14.10 Conflict with Bye-Laws. If, during the continuance of this Agreement, there
should be any conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and the provisions of the Bye-Laws,
the Shareholders shall join together to pass such resolutions as may be required to amend the
relevant provisions of the Bye-Laws so that such provisions of the Bye-Laws may accord with the
provisions of this Agreement and, failing such resolution, the provisions of this Agreement shall
prevail.

     14.11 Assignment. This Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit
of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns. Except pursuant to a

33

 

joinder as described in this Agreement, no party may assign its rights or obligations hereunder
without the prior written consent of the Company, the Majority Second Lien Shareholders and the
Majority Interest Second Lien Lenders, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed;
provided, however, notwithstanding the foregoing, Technology Holdings shall be
entitled to assign any of its rights hereunder to any of its shareholders, including, without
limitation, to permit such shareholders to exercise the preemptive rights, registration rights and
Co-Sale Rights provided pursuant to Sections 7, 8 and 9 hereof directly, rather than indirectly
through Technology Holdings, provided that any such assignees agree to be bounder hereunder with
respect to such assigned rights and obligations. No assignment shall relieve the assigning party of
any of its obligations hereunder.

     14.12 Captions. The captions to sections of this Agreement have been inserted for
identification and reference purposes only and shall not be used to construe or interpret this
Agreement.

     14.13 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which
shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same
instrument. Delivery by facsimile of an executed counterpart of any signature page to this
Agreement to be executed hereunder shall have the same effectiveness as the delivery of a manually
executed counterpart thereof.

     14.14 Adjustments for Share Splits, Etc. Wherever in this Agreement there is a
reference to a specific number of shares of the Company, then, upon the occurrence of any
subdivision, combination, reverse split, share dividend, or the like of shares, the specific number
of shares so referenced in this Agreement shall automatically be proportionally adjusted to reflect
the affect on the outstanding shares of such class or series of share by such subdivision,
combination or share dividend.

     14.15 Public Announcements. Unless otherwise required by applicable law (based upon
the reasonable advice of counsel), no party to this Agreement shall make any public announcements
in respect of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby or otherwise communicate with
any news media without the prior written consent of the Company and Majority Second Lien Shareholders
(which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), and the parties shall cooperate as to

REGISTRATION RIGHTS.

     2.1 Demand Registration.

     (a) Request by Holders. If the Company shall, at any time after the earlier of
(i) the fourth anniversary of the date hereof (or February 1, 2005 in the case of the Holders
of Series A Preference Shares) or (ii) six (6) months after the initial public offering of the
Company of shares of Capital Stock of the Company pursuant to an effective registration
statement under the Securities Act or a similar statute in any other jurisdiction, receive a
written request from either (a) Holders of at least twenty-five percent (25%) of the aggregate
Registrable Securities then outstanding and held by the Ordinary Investors (the “Ordinary
Investor Holders”), (b) Holders of at least twenty-five percent (25%) of the aggregate
Registrable Securities then outstanding and held by the Series A Investors (the “Series A
Investor Holders”) or (c) Holders of at least twenty-five percent (25%) of the aggregate
Registrable Securities then outstanding and held by the Series B Investors (the “Series B
Investor Holders”) that the Company file a registration statement under the Securities Act
covering the registration of Registrable Securities pursuant to this Section 2.1, then the
Company shall, within ten (10) Business Days of the receipt of such written request, give
written notice of such request (“Request Notice”) to all Holders, and use its best
efforts to effect, as soon as practicable, the registration under the Securities Act of all
Registrable Securities that Holders request to be registered and included in such registration
by written notice given by such Holders to the Company within twenty (20) days after receipt
of the Request Notice, subject only to the limitations of this Section 2.1; and provided, that
the Company shall not be obligated to effect any such registration if the Company has, within
the one hundred twenty (120) day period preceding the date of such request, already effected a
registration under the Securities Act pursuant to this Section 2.1 or Section 2.3, or in which
the Holders had an opportunity to participate pursuant to the provisions of Section 2.2, other
than a registration from which the Registrable Securities of Holders have been excluded (with
respect to all or any portion of the Registrable Securities the Holders requested be included
in such

6

 

registration) pursuant to the provisions of Section 2.1(b) or Section 2.2(b); and provided,
that the Company only shall be obligated to effect a registration pursuant to the above if
such registration covers Capital Stock having an aggregate offering price in excess of five
million United States Dollars (USD5,000,000).

     (b) Underwriting. If the Holder initiating the registration request under this
Section 2.1 (the “Initiating Holder”) intends to distribute the Registrable Securities
covered by its request by means of an underwriting, then it shall so advise the Company as a
part of its request made pursuant to this Section 2.1 and the Company shall include such
information in the Request Notice. 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 the Initiating Holder and such Holder) to the extent
provided herein. All Holders proposing to distribute their securities through such
underwriting shall enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the managing
underwriter or underwriters selected for such underwriting by the Company. Notwithstanding any
other provision of this Section 2.1, if the underwriter(s) advise(s) the Company that
marketing factors require a limitation of the number of securities to be underwritten then the
Company shall so advise all Holders of Registrable Securities which would otherwise be
registered and underwritten pursuant hereto, and the number of Registrable Securities that may
be included in the underwriting shall be reduced as required by the underwriter(s) as follows:
first, all securities of other participants in the registration, if any, who do not hold
Registrable Securities and all other securities for the account of the Company shall be
entirely excluded from the underwriting and registration; second, if the underwriters require
that the number of securities to be underwritten be further reduced, if the Initiating Holder
is an Ordinary Investor, all securities of the Series A Investor Holders and Series B Investor
Holders shall be reduced pro rata, and if the Initiating Holder is an Investor, all securities
of the Ordinary Investor Holders shall be reduced pro rata; third, if, after the total
exclusion of Registrable Securities held by the Ordinary Investor, or the Investors, as the
case may be, the underwriter requires that the number of securities to be underwritten be
further reduced, the Registrable Securities of all Series A Investor Holders and Series B
Investor Holders, including the Initiating Holder, or of all Ordinary Investor Holders,
including the Initiating Holder, as the case may be, shall be reduced pro rata according to
the number of Registrable Securities then outstanding held by each such Holder requesting
registration. Any Registrable Securities excluded and withdrawn from such underwriting shall
be withdrawn from the registration.

     (c) Maximum Number of Demand Registrations. The Company shall be obligated to
effect only three (3) such registrations pursuant to this Section 2.1 with respect to any
Request Notice initiated by the Ordinary Investor, only three (3) such registrations pursuant
to this Section 2.1 with respect to any Request Notice initiated by the Series A Investors and
only three (3) such registrations pursuant to this Section 2.1 with respect to any Request
Notice initiated by the Series B Investors.

     (d) Deferral. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company shall furnish to the
Initiating Holder requesting the filing of a registration statement pursuant to this Section
2.1, a certificate signed by the President or Chief Executive Officer of the Company stating
that in the good faith judgment of the Board, it would be materially detrimental to the
Company and its

7

 

stockholders for such registration statement to be filed, the Company shall have the right to
defer such filing for a reasonable time, not to exceed ninety (90) days in any twelve (12)
month period.

     (e) Expenses. All expenses incurred in connection with any registration pursuant
to this Section 2.1, including without limitation all federal and “blue sky” registration,
filing
and qualification fees, printer’s and accounting fees, fees and disbursements of counsel
for the Company and reasonable fees and disbursements of one counsel for the Ordinary Investor
and one counsel for the Investors (but excluding underwriters’ discounts and commissions
relating to shares sold by the Holders), shall be borne by the Company. Each Holder
participating in a registration pursuant to this Section 2.1 shall bear such Holder’s
proportionate share (based on the total number of shares sold in such registration other than
for the account of the Company or any holder of securities of the Company other than a Holder
participating in such registration) of all discounts, commissions or other amounts payable to
underwriter(s) or brokers in connection with such offering. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
Company shall not be required to pay for any expenses of any registration proceeding begun
pursuant to this Section 2.1 if the registration request is subsequently withdrawn at the
request of the Initiating Holder, unless such Initiating Holder agrees that such registration
constitutes the use by such Initiating Holder of one (1) demand registration pursuant to this
Section 2.1 with respect to the Ordinary Investor, the Series A Investors or Series B
Investors, as may be applicable (in which case such registration shall also constitute the use
by all such Holders of one (1) such demand registration).

     2.2 Piggyback Registrations. The Company shall notify all Holders in writing (a
“Piggyback Notice”) at least thirty (30) days prior to filing any registration statement
under the Securities Act for purposes of effecting a public offering of securities of the Company
(including, but not limited to, registration statements relating to secondary offerings of
securities of the Company, but excluding registration statements relating to any registration under
Section 2.1 or Section 2.3 or to any registrations by the Company on Form S-4 or F-4, as the case
may be, or any successor forms, and any other equivalent registrations and registrations by the
Company of any shares issued pursuant to a share purchase or share option plans or agreements or
other incentive share arrangements), and will afford each such Holder an opportunity to include in
such registration statement all or any part of the Registrable Securities then held by such Holder.
Each such Holder desiring to include in any such registration statement all or any part of the
Registrable Securities held by such Holder shall within twenty (20) days after receipt of the
Piggyback Notice from the Company, so notify the Company in writing, and in such notice shall
inform the Company of the number of its Registrable Securities such Holder wishes to include in
such registration statement. If a Holder decides not to include all of its Registrable Securities
in any registration statement thereafter filed by the Company, such Holder shall nevertheless
continue to have the right to include any Registrable Securities held by it in any subsequent
registration statement or registration statements as may be filed by the Company with respect to
offerings of its securities, all upon the terms and conditions set forth herein.

     (a) Underwriting. If a registration statement with respect to which the Company
gives notice under this Section 2.2 is for an underwritten offering, then the Company shall so
advise the Holders in the Piggyback Notice. In such event, the right of any such Holder’s
Registrable Securities to be included in a registration pursuant to this Section 2.2 shall be
conditioned upon such Holder’s participation in such underwriting and the inclusion of such
Holder’s Registrable Securities in the underwriting to the extent provided herein. All Holders

8

 

proposing to distribute their Registrable Securities through such underwriting shall enter
into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the managing underwriter or underwriters
selected for such underwriting (including a market stand-off agreement of up to 180 days if
required by such underwriter or underwriters). Notwithstanding any other provision of this
Agreement, if the managing underwriter(s) determine(s) in good faith that marketing factors
require a limitation of the number of shares to be underwritten, then the managing
underwriter(s) may exclude shares from the registration and the underwriting (such exclusion,
a “Cutback”), and the number of shares that may be included in the registration and
the underwriting shall be allocated, first to the Company, and second, to each of the Holders
requesting inclusion of their Registrable Securities in such registration statement on a pro
rata basis with any other holders of securities of the Company participating in such
registration based on the total number of Registrable Securities then held by each such Holder
and other holders of securities of the Company; provided, that the right of the underwriter(s)
to exclude shares (including Registrable Securities) from the registration and underwriting as
described above shall be restricted so that, subject to the rights of any holders granted
registration rights on par with the rights provided for in this Section 2.2, all shares that
are not Registrable Securities and are held by any other Person, including, without
limitation, any Person who is an employee, officer or director of the Company (or any
subsidiary of the Company) shall first be excluded from such registration and underwriting
before any Registrable Securities are so excluded. If any Holder disapproves of the terms of
any such underwriting, such Holder may elect to withdraw therefrom by written notice to the
Company and the underwriter(s), delivered at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the
effective date of the registration statement. Any Registrable Securities excluded or withdrawn
from such underwriting shall be reapportioned so that the registration includes Registrable
Securities that were previously requested by a Holder but excluded pursuant to the Cutback. If
all the Registrable Securities requested by the Holders have been included, the other
shareholders of the Company may include any Ordinary Shares on a pro rata basis. For any
Holder that is a partnership, the Holder and the partners and retired partners 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, and for any Holder that is a corporation, the
Holder and all corporations that are Affiliates of such Holder, shall be deemed to be a single
“Holder,” and any pro rata reduction with respect to such “Holder” shall be based upon the
aggregate amount of shares carrying registration rights owned by all Persons included in such
“Holder,” as defined in this sentence.

     (b) Expenses. All expenses incurred in connection with a registration pursuant to
this Section 2.2, including, without limitation, all federal and “blue sky” registration,
filing and qualification fees, printers’ and accounting fees, fees and disbursements of
counsel for the Company and reasonable fees and disbursements of one counsel for the Ordinary
Investor and one counsel for the Investors (but excluding underwriters’ and brokers’ discounts
and commissions relating to shares sold by the Holders), shall be borne by the Company. Each
Holder participating in a registration pursuant to this Section 2.2 shall bear such Holder’s
proportionate share (based on the total number of shares sold in such registration other than
for the account of the Company) of all discounts, commissions or other amounts payable to
underwriter(s) or brokers in connection with such offering by the Holders.

     (c) Not Demand Registration. Registration pursuant to this Section 2.2 shall not
be deemed to be a demand registration as described in Section 2.1. Except as otherwise

9

 

provided herein, there shall be no limit on the number of times the Holders may request
registration of Registrable Securities under this Section 2.2.

     2.3 Form S-3/F-3 Registration. In case the Company shall at any time receive from a
Holder of Registrable Securities a written request that the Company effect a registration on Form
S-3/F-3 and any related qualification or compliance with respect to all or a part of the
Registrable Securities owned by such Holder or Holders, then the Company will:

     (a) Notice. Promptly give written notice of the proposed registration and the
Holder’s or Holders’ request therefore, and any related qualification or compliance, to all
other Holders; and

     (b) Registration. As soon as practicable, effect such registration and all such
qualifications and compliances as may be so requested and as would permit or facilitate the
sale and distribution of all or such portion of such Holder’s or Holders’ Registrable
Securities as are specified in such request, together with all or such portion of the
Registrable Securities of any other Holder or Holders joining in such request as are specified
in a written request given within twenty (20) days after the Company provides the notice
contemplated by Section 2.3(a); provided, that the Company shall not be obligated to effect
any such registration, qualification or compliance pursuant to this Section 2.3:

     (1) if Form S-3/F-3 is not available for such offering by the Holders:

     (2) if the Holders, together with the holders of any other securities of the Company
entitled to inclusion in such registration, propose to sell Registrable Securities and
such other securities (if any) at an aggregate price to the public of less than one
million five hundred thousand United States Dollars (USD1,500,000); or

     (3) in any particular jurisdiction in which the Company would be required to qualify
to do business or to execute a general consent to service of process in effecting such
registration, qualification or compliance.

     (c) Expenses. All expenses incurred in connection with each registration
requested pursuant to this Section 2.3, including without limitation federal and “blue sky”
registration, filing and qualification fees, printers’ and accounting fees, fees and
disbursements of counsel for the Company and reasonable fees and disbursements of one counsel
for the Ordinary Investors and one counsel for the Investors (but excluding underwriters’ or
brokers’ discounts and commissions relating to shares sold by the Holders), shall be borne by
the Company.

     (d) Deferral. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company shall furnish to
Holders requesting the filing of a registration statement pursuant to this Section 2.3, a
certificate signed by the President or Chief Executive Officer of the Company stating that in
the good faith judgment of the Board, it would be materially detrimental to the Company and
its stockholders for such registration statement to be filed, the Company shall have the right
to defer such filing for a reasonable time, not to exceed ninety (90) days in any twelve (12)
month period.

     (e) Not Demand Registration. Registrations pursuant to this Section 2.3 shall not
be deemed to be demand registrations as described in Section 2.1. Except as otherwise

10

 

provided herein, there shall be no limit on the number of times the Holders may request
registration of Registrable Securities under this Section 2.3.

     (f) Maximum Number of Registrations. The Company shall be obligated to effect
only two (2) such registrations pursuant to this Section 2.3 with respect to any Request
Notice initiated by the Ordinary Investor, only two (2) such registrations pursuant to this

two (2) such registrations pursuant to this Section 2.3 with respect to any Request Notice
initiated by the Series B Investors.

     2.4 Obligations of the Company. Whenever required to effect the registration of any
Registrable Securities under this Agreement the Company shall use reasonable efforts to, as
expeditiously as reasonably possible:

     (a) Registration Statement. Prepare and file with the SEC a registration
statement with respect to such Registrable Securities and use its reasonable best efforts to
cause such registration statement to become effective, provided, that the Company shall not be
required to keep any such registration statement effective for more than ninety (90) days.

     (b) Amendments and Supplements. Prepare and file with the SEC 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) Prospectuses. Furnish to each Holder a reasonable number 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 the Registrable Securities owned by them that are included in such
registration.

     (d) Blue Sky. Use its reasonable 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 jurisdictions.

     (e) Underwriting. 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(s) of such offering. Each Holder participating in such underwriting
shall also enter into and perform its obligations under such an agreement.

     (f) Notification. 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.

11

 

     (g) Opinion and Comfort Letter. Furnish, at the request of any Holder requesting
registration of Registrable Securities, on the date that such Registrable Securities are
delivered to the underwriter(s) for sale, 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 as of 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 underwritten
public offering and reasonably satisfactory to a majority in interest of the Holders
requesting registration, addressed to the underwriters, if any, and to the Holders requesting
registration of Registrable Securities and (ii) a “comfort” letter dated as of 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 and reasonably satisfactory to a majority in interest of the
Holders requesting registration, addressed to the underwriters, if any, and to the Holders
requesting registration of Registrable Securities.

     (h) Marketing. Cause its employees and personnel to use their reasonable best
efforts to support the marketing of the Registrable Securities (including, without limitation,
the participation in “road shows,” at the request of the underwriters or the holders of a
majority of the Registrable Securities to be included in such registration) to the extent
possible taking into account the Company’s business needs and the requirements of the
marketing process.

     (i) Approvals. Use its reasonable best efforts to cause such Registrable
Securities to be registered with or approved by such governmental authorities as may be
reasonably necessary by virtue of the business and operations of the Company to enable the
purchasers thereof to consummate the disposition of such Registrable Securities.

     (j) Inspection Rights. Make available for inspection by any one lead underwriter
participating in any such registration and its attorneys, accountants or other agents retained
by any such underwriter (collectively, the “Inspectors”), all pertinent financial and
other records, pertinent corporate documents and properties of the Company (collectively, the
“Records”), as shall be reasonably necessary to enable it, for itself and on behalf of
the underwriters, to exercise its due diligence responsibility under the Securities Act, and
cause the Company’s officers, directors and employees to supply all information (together with
the Records, the “Information”) reasonably requested by any such Inspector in
connection with the preparation and filing of such registration statement. Any of the
Information which the Company determines in good faith to be confidential, and of which
determination the Inspectors are so notified, shall not be disclosed by the Inspectors unless
(A) the disclosure of such Information is necessary to avoid or correct a misstatement or
omission in the registration statement, (B) the release of such Information is ordered
pursuant to a subpoena or other order from a court of competent jurisdiction or (C) such
Information has been made generally available to the public. The seller of Registrable
Securities agrees that it will, upon learning that disclosure of such Information is sought in
a court of competent jurisdiction, give notice to the Company and allow the Company, at the
Company’s expense, to undertake appropriate action to prevent disclosure of the Information it
deems confidential.

12

 

     (k) Transfer Agent. Provide a transfer agent and registrar (which may be the same
entity and which may be the Company) for such Registrable Securities to the extent not already
provided.

     (l) Listing. Use its reasonable best efforts to list such Registrable Securities
on any securities exchange or automated quotation system on which any shares of Capital Stock
of the Company are listed or, if the shares of Capital Stock of the Company are not so listed,
use its reasonable best efforts to qualify such Registrable Securities for inclusion on the
automated quotation system of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. (the
“NASD”) or such other securities exchange as the Company shall reasonably determine.

     (m) SEC. Otherwise use its reasonable best efforts to comply with all applicable
rules and regulations of the Commission and make available to its security holders, as soon as
reasonably practicable, earnings statements (which need not be audited) covering a period of
twelve (12) months beginning within three (3) months after the effective date of the
registration statement, which earnings statements shall satisfy the provisions of Section
11(a) of the Securities Act.

     (n) CUSIP. Not later than the effective date of any registration statement (the
“Registration Date”), provide a CUSIP number for the Securities registered under such
registration statement and provide the trustee with printed certificates for such Securities
in a form eligible for deposit with The Depository Trust Company.

     2.5 Furnish Information. It shall be a condition precedent to the obligations of the
Company to take any action pursuant to Sections 2.1, 2.2 or 2.3 that the selling Holders shall
furnish to the Company such information as may be reasonably requested by the Company, including,
but not limited to, information regarding themselves, the Registrable Securities held by them, and
the intended method of disposition of such Securities as shall be required to timely effect the
registration of their Registrable Securities.

     2.6 Indemnification. In the event any Registrable Securities are included in a
registration statement under Sections 2.1, 2.2 or 2.3:

     (a) By the Company. To the extent permitted by law, the Company will indemnify
and hold harmless each Holder, the partners, officers, directors, employees and agents of each
Holder, 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
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, (the “1934 Act”), against any losses,
claims, damages, or liabilities (joint or several) or actions (“Liabilities”) to which
they may become subject under the Securities Act, the 1934 Act or other federal, state or
foreign 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 or

13

 

any document incident to registration or qualification of any securities of the Company;

     (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
1934 Act, any federal, state or foreign securities law or any rule or regulation
promulgated under the Securities Act, the 1934 Act or any federal, state or foreign
securities law in connection with the offering covered by such registration statement.

The Company will reimburse each such Holder, partner, officer, director, employee, agent,
underwriter or controlling Person of such Holder for any legal or other expenses reasonably
incurred by them, as incurred, in connection with investigating or defending any such Liability;
provided, that the indemnity agreement contained in this subsection 2.6(a) shall not apply to
amounts paid in settlement of any such Liability 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 Liability 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 the preparation of such registration statement,
preliminary prospectus, final prospectus, amendments, supplement or document by such Holder,
partner, officer, director, employee, agent, underwriter or controlling Person of such Holder.

     (b) By Selling Holders. To the extent permitted by law, each selling Holder will
indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each of its directors, officers, employees and agents
and each Person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act,
any underwriter and any other Holder selling securities under such registration statement or
any of such other Holder’s partners, officers, directors, employees or agents or any Person
who controls such Holder within the meaning of the Securities Act or the 1934 Act, against any
Liabilities to which the Company or any such director, officer, employee, agent, controlling
Person, underwriter or any such other Holder, partner, director, officer, employee or agent of
such other Holder may become subject under the Securities Act, the 1934 Act or other federal,
state or foreign law, insofar as such Liabilities 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 the preparation of such registration statement, preliminary
prospectus, final prospectus, amendment, supplement or document; and each such Holder will
reimburse any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by the Company or any such director,
officer, employee, agent, controlling person, underwriter or other Holder, partner, officer,
director, employee, agent or controlling person of such other Holder in connection with
investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action: provided, that
the indemnity agreement contained in this subsection 2.6(b) shall not apply to amounts paid in
settlement of any such Liability if such settlement is effected without the consent of the
Holder, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld; and provided, that the total amounts
payable in indemnity by a Holder under this Section 2.6(b) or is contributed under Section
2.6(e) in respect of any Violation shall not exceed

14

 

the net proceeds actually received by such Holder from the sale of the Registrable Securities
effected pursuant to the registration out of which such Violation arises.

     (c) Notice. Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 2.6
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 2.6, 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, that an indemnified party shall have the right to retain its own counsel,
with the fees and expenses to be paid by the indemnifying party, if representation of such
indemnified party by the counsel retained by the indemnifying party would be inappropriate due
to actual or potential conflicts of interest between such indemnified party and any other
party represented by such counsel in such proceeding. The failure to deliver written notice to
the indemnifying party within a reasonable time of the commencement of any such action
shall relieve such indemnifying party of liability to the indemnified party under this
Section 2.6 to the extent the indemnifying party is actually and materially prejudiced as a
result thereof, but the omission so to deliver written notice to the indemnified party will
not relieve it of any liability that it may have to any indemnified party otherwise than under
this Section 2.6.

     (d) Defect Eliminated in Final Prospectus. The foregoing indemnity agreements of
the Company and the Holders are subject to the condition that, insofar as they relate to any
Violation made in a preliminary prospectus but eliminated or remedied in the amended
prospectus on file with the SEC at the time the registration statement in question becomes
effective or the amended prospectus filed with the SEC pursuant to SEC Rule 424(b) (the
“Final Prospectus”), such indemnity agreement shall not inure to the benefit of any
Person if a copy of the Final Prospectus was timely furnished to the indemnified party and was
furnished to the Person asserting the Liability at or prior to the time such action is
required by the Securities Act.

     (e) Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in this Section 2.6 is
unavailable to an indemnified party under Sections 2.6(a) or (b) with respect to any
Liabilities thereunder, then each indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified
party, shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, contribute to the amount paid or payable
by such indemnified party as a result of such Liabilities in such proportion as is appropriate
to reflect the relative fault of such party in connection with the statements or omissions
that resulted in such Liabilities, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The
relative fault of the Company and each selling Holder shall be determined by reference to,
among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the
omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by such
party and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to
correct or prevent such statement or omission.

     The Company and each selling Holder agrees that it would not be just and equitable if
contribution pursuant to this Section 2.6(e) were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other
method of allocation that does not take account of the equitable considerations

15

 

referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph. The amount paid or payable by an indemnified
party as a result of the Liabilities referred to in Sections 2.6(a) and (b) shall be deemed to
include, subject to the limitations set forth above, any legal or other expenses reasonably
incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or
claim. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the
Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any Person who was not guilty of such
fraudulent misrepresentation.

     2.7 Holdback Agreement. If requested by the Company and the lead or managing
underwriters of the Series A Qualified IPO or Series B Qualified IPO, as the case may be, the
Holders severally agree not to offer, sell, contract to sell or otherwise dispose of any
Registrable
Securities, or any securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for such
securities, during the one hundred eighty (180) day period (or such lesser period as the lead or
managing underwriters may require) beginning on the date of the closing of the Series A Qualified
IPO or Series B Qualified IPO, as the case may be, provided that (i) in connection with the closing
of the Series A Qualified IPO or Series B Qualified IPO, as the case may be, each officer and
director of the Company and holder of one percent (1%) or more of the Company’s fully diluted
voting securities is subject to restrictions substantially equivalent to those imposed on the
Holders hereunder and (ii) any discretionary waiver or termination by such underwriters of the
restrictions set forth in this Section 2.7 or of the substantially equivalent restrictions imposed
on officers and directors or one percent (1%) holders pursuant to this Section 2.7 shall apply to
such officers and directors and all Persons subject to this Agreement on a pro rata basis, based
upon the number of shares held by each Person subject to such restrictions.

     2.8 Termination of the Company’s Obligations. The Company shall have no obligations to
a Holder pursuant to this Section 2 after the earlier of (i) the date on which all Registrable
Securities, Series A Preference Shares and/or Series B Preference Shares, as the case may be, held
by such Holder have been sold; and (ii) the date on which all of such Holder’s Registrable
Securities, Series A Preference Shares and/or Series B Preference Shares, as the case may be, may
be sold in any three (3) month period without registration pursuant to Rule 144 promulgated under
the Securities Act.

     2.9 Transfer of Registration Rights to Third Parties. The registration rights provided
in Section 2.1, 2.2 and 2.3 may be transferred without restriction by the Holders to purchasers and
transferees of the Series A Preference Shares and/or Series B Preference Shares, as the case may
be; provided, that such transfer must comply with Section 8.1.

     2.10 Other Registration Rights. The Company agrees that before it grants registration
rights to a third party with terms and conditions more favorable than the registration rights
provided in this Section 2, it shall first receive the consent of the holders of at least sixty
percent (60%) of the then outstanding Series A Preference Shares and the consent of the holders of
at least sixty percent (60%) of the then outstanding Series B Preference Shares, each voting as a
separate class.

     2.11 1934 Act Compliance. From and after the Registration Date or such earlier date as
a registration statement filed by the Company pursuant to the 1934 Act relating to any class of the
Company’s Capital Stock shall have become effective, the Company shall comply with all of

16

 

the reporting requirements of the 1934 Act, and shall comply with all other public information
reporting requirements of the Commission which are conditions to the availability of Rule 144
promulgated under the Securities Act for the sale of Ordinary Shares. The Company shall cooperate
with each Shareholder in supplying such information as may be necessary for such Shareholder to
complete and file any information reporting forms presently or hereafter required by the Commission
as a condition to the availability of Rule 144.

3.
RIGHT OF FIRST OFFER.

     3.1 General. The holders of each of the Series A Preference Shares and the Series B
Preference Shares (each holder, a “Participation Rights Holder”) shall have the right of
first offer to purchase such Participation Rights Holder’s Pro Rata Share (as defined in Section
3.2), of all (or any part) of any New Securities (as defined in Section 3.3) that the Company may
from time to time issue after the date of this Agreement (the “Right of First Offer”).

     3.2 Pro Rata Share. (a) A Participation Rights Holder’s “Pro Rata Share” for
purposes of the Right of First Offer is the ratio of (i) the number of Ordinary Shares held by or
that would be received upon conversion of the Series A Preference Shares and/or Series B Preference
Shares, as the case may be, held by such Participation Rights Holder at the time of issuance of
such New Securities, to (ii) the Company’s then outstanding Ordinary Shares (assuming conversion of
the Series A Preference Shares and the Series B Preference Shares and the exercise or conversion of
all rights, options, warrants and other convertible securities of the Company).

     (b) The Ordinary Investor and the Management Shareholders shall, to the extent legally
permissible, cause the Board of Directors or the General Meeting of Shareholders, as the case may
be, to take such action necessary to waive or restrict the Ordinary Investor’s or Management
Shareholder’s Right of First Offer as may be necessary to ensure the Participation Rights Holders’
Pro Rata Share of the Right of First Offer. Alternatively, the Ordinary Investor and the Management
Shareholders shall assign and transfer to the Investors such rights with respect to the Right of
First Offer as shall be necessary to ensure the Participation Rights Holders’ Pro Rata Share of the
Right of First Offer.

     3.3 New Securities. “New Securities” shall mean any Ordinary Shares, Series A
Preference Shares, Series B Preference Shares or other voting capital stock of the Company
(collectively “Capital Stock”), whether now authorized or not, and rights, options or
warrants to purchase such Capital Stock, and securities of any type whatsoever that are, or may
become, convertible or exchangeable into such Capital Stock; provided, that the term “New
Securities” shall not include:

	 	(a)	 	up to nineteen million one hundred thirty-two thousand two hundred
thirteen (19,132,213) Ordinary Shares offered to employees, officers,
directors or consultants of the Company pursuant to share purchase or
share option plans or agreements or other incentive share agreements
(“Incentive Shares”);
	 
	 	(b)	 	options to purchase the Incentive Shares;
	 
	 	(c)	 	any Series A Preference Shares issued under the Series A Purchase
Agreement, as such Agreement may be amended;

17

 

	 	(d)	 	any Series B Preference Shares issued under the Series B Purchase
Agreement, as such Agreement may be amended;
	 
	 	(e)	 	any Ordinary Shares issued upon conversion of (i) the Series A
Preference Shares or (ii) the Series B Preference Shares;
	 
	 	(f)	 	any securities issued in connection with any stock split, stock
dividend or other similar event in which all Participation Rights
Holders are entitled to participate on a pro rata basis;
	 
	 	(g)	 	any securities issued upon the exercise, conversion or exchange of any
security outstanding as of the date hereof; or
	 
	 	(h)	 	any securities issued pursuant to the acquisition of another Person by
the Company by consolidation, merger, purchase of assets, or other
reorganization in which the Company acquires, in a single transaction
or series of related transactions, assets of such other Person or
fifty percent (50%) or more of the voting power of such other Person
or fifty percent (50%) or more of the equity ownership of such other
Person.

     3.4 Procedures. In the event that the Company proposes to undertake an issuance of New
Securities (in a single transaction or a series of related transactions), it shall give to each
Participation Rights Holder written notice of its intention to issue New Securities (the
“Participation Notice”), describing the amount and the type of New Securities and the price
and the general terms upon which the Company proposes to issue such New Securities. Each
Participation Rights Holder shall have twenty (20) Business Days from the date of receipt of any
such Participation Notice to agree in writing to purchase up to such Participation Rights Holder’s
Pro Rata Share of such New Securities for the price and upon the terms and conditions specified in
the Participation Notice by giving written notice to the Company and stating therein the quantity
of New Securities to be purchased (not to exceed such Participation Rights Holder’s Pro Rata
Share). If any Participation Rights Holder fails to so agree in writing within such twenty (20)
Business Day period to purchase all or any portion of such Participation Rights Holder’s Pro Rata
Share of an offering of New Securities, then such Participation Rights Holder shall forfeit the
right hereunder (in that particular case only) to purchase that part of its Pro Rata Share of such
New Securities that it did not so agree to purchase. Such Participation Rights Holder shall
purchase the portion elected by such Participation Rights Holder concurrently with the closing of
the transaction triggering the Right of First Offer.

     3.5 Over-Subscription Rights. Each Participation Rights Holder shall have a right of
over-subscription such that if any other Participation Rights Holder fails to elect to purchase its
full Pro Rata Share of New Securities or any Participation Rights Holder fails to purchase its Pro
Rata Share of New Securities, as the case may be, the other Participation Rights Holders shall,
among them, have the right to purchase up to the balance of such New Securities not so purchased.
Each Participation Rights Holder may exercise such right of over-subscription in the written notice
delivered pursuant to Section 3.4 by stating the maximum number of New Securities such
Participation Rights Holder elects to purchase. If the number of New Securities elected pursuant to
the previous sentence exceeds the number of New Securities available to be

18

 

purchased pursuant to the first sentence of Section 3.4, each Participation Rights Holder shall be
entitled to purchase the number of New Securities equal to the number of New Securities available
pursuant to the first sentence of Section 3.4 multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is
the number of Series A Preference Shares and/or Series B Preference Shares owned by such
Participation Rights Holder and the denominator of which is the number of Series A Preference
Shares and Series B Preference Shares owned by all Participation Rights Holders which elect to
participate in such over-subscription, provided that in no event shall any Participation Rights
Holder be required to purchase a number of New Securities greater than the number it offers to
purchase pursuant to the Participation Notice.

     3.6 Failure to Exercise. Upon the expiration of such twenty (20) Business Day period
and to the extent that the Participation Rights Holders do not elect to exercise their Rights of
First Offer, the Company shall have one hundred twenty (120) days thereafter to sell the New
Securities described in the Participation Notice at the same or higher price and upon non-price
terms and conditions not materially more favorable to the purchasers thereof than specified in the
Participation Notice. Any proposed sale on terms and conditions more favorable than those described
in the Participation Notice or any sale of such New Securities after such one hundred twenty (120)
day period, shall be made only after compliance anew with the provisions of this Section 3.

     3.7 Termination. The Right of First Offer for the Series A Investors shall terminate
upon the closing of a Series A Qualified IPO. The Right of First Offer for the Series B Investors
shall terminate upon the closing of a Series B Qualified IPO.

4. TRANSFER RESTRICTIONS.

     4.1 Restrictions on Transfer of Shares by the Ordinary Investor and Management
Shareholders. Except as otherwise provided herein, neither the Ordinary Investor nor any
Management Shareholder may sell, assign, transfer, pledge, hypothecate or otherwise encumber or
dispose of, in any way, all or any part of or any interest in any shares of Capital Stock of the
Company held by it (excluding any shares of Series A Preference Shares held by by it) for a period
ending on the earliest of (i) the second anniversary of the date hereof (the “Restriction
Period”), (ii) the closing of a Series A Qualified IPO and (iii) the closing of a Series B
Qualified IPO, unless such transfer is (a) approved by the holders of at least sixty percent (60%)
of the Series A Preference Shares then outstanding and by the holders of at least sixty percent
(60%) of the Series B Preference Shares then outstanding (except that no approval of the Series A
Preference Shares shall be required after February 1, 2003), (b) in connection with a Series A
Qualified IPO, a Series B Qualified IPO or sale of the Company through a merger, acquisition,
consolidation, or sale of all, or substantially all, of the assets of the Company, (c) pursuant to
the provisions of a Management Shareholders employment agreement or the Company’s stock option
plans, (d) made by the Ordinary Investor to an Affiliate of the Ordinary Investor or (e) to a
Person for estate or tax planning purposes. Any sale, assignment, transfer, hypothecation or other
encumbrance or disposition of the shares of Capital Stock of the Company not made in conformance
with this Agreement shall be null and void, shall not be recorded on the books of the Company and
shall not be recognized by the Company.

19

 

     4.2 Restrictive Legends. It is understood that each certificate, if any, representing
the Shares shall be stamped or otherwise imprinted with a legend substantially in the following
form:

THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE UNITED STATES SECURITIES
ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “ACT”), OR UNDER THE SECURITIES LAWS OF LUXEMBOURG OR OF ANY
STATES OF THE UNITED STATES. THESE SECURITIES ARE SUBJECT TO RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFERABILITY
AND RESALE AND MAY NOT BE TRANSFERRED OR RESOLD EXCEPT AS PERMITTED UNDER THE ACT AND THE
APPLICABLE STATE AND OTHER SECURITIES LAWS, PURSUANT TO REGISTRATION OR EXEMPTION THEREFROM.
INVESTORS SHOULD BE AWARE THAT THEY MAY BE REQUIRED TO BEAR THE FINANCIAL RISKS OF THIS
INVESTMENT FOR AN INDEFINITE PERIOD OF TIME. THE ISSUER OF THESE SECURITIES MAY REQUIRE AN
OPINION OF COUNSEL IN FORM AND SUBSTANCE REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE ISSUER TO THE EFFECT
THAT ANY PROPOSED TRANSFER OR RESALE IS IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE ACT AND ANY APPLICABLE STATE
AND OTHER SECURITIES LAWS. IN ADDITION, THE SECURITIES ARE SUBJECT TO CERTAIN RESTRICTIONS ON
TRANSFERS CONTAINED IN AN AMENDED AND RESTATED SHAREHOLDERS AGREEMENT, DATED AS OF MAY 23,
2002. COPIES OF SUCH AGREEMENT MAY BE OBTAINED FROM THE COMPANY AT ITS PRINCIPAL EXECUTIVE
OFFICES.

     4.3 Removal of Restrictive Legend. The legend set forth above shall be removed by the
Company from any certificate evidencing Shares upon delivery to the Company of an opinion from
counsel, reasonably satisfactory to the Company, that a registration statement under the Securities
Act is at that time in effect with respect to the legended security or that such security can be
freely transferred in a public sale without such a registration statement being in effect and that
such transfer will not jeopardize the exemption or exemptions from registration pursuant to which
the Company issued the Shares.

5. RIGHTS OF FIRST REFUSAL.

     5.1 Notice of Series A Sales. If at any time a Series A Investor (the “Series A
Selling Investor”) proposes to sell, assign, transfer, exchange or otherwise convey or dispose
(any such sale, assignment, transfer, exchange or other conveyance or disposal being hereinafter
referred to as a “Series A Sale”) all or any portion of the Series A Preference Shares held
by such Series A Selling Investor (other than, in each case, to one (1) or more of its Affiliates),
then the Series A Selling Investor shall promptly give written notice (the “Series A First
Refusal Notice”) to the Ordinary Investor and to each of the other Series A Investors
(collectively, the “Other Series A Investors”) at least thirty (30) Business Days prior to
the closing of such Series A Sale. The Series A First Refusal Notice shall describe in reasonable
detail the proposed Series A Sale (including, without limitation, (i) the number of anticipated
Series A Preference Shares to be conveyed in such Series A Sale (collectively, the “Series A
Offered Shares”), (ii) the nature of
such proposed Series A Sale, (iii) the consideration to be paid in connection with such

     5.2 The Ordinary Investor’s Series A Option. The Ordinary Investor shall have an
option (the “Ordinary Investor Series A Option”) for a period of ten (10) Business Days
from receipt of the Series A First Refusal Notice (the “Series A First Offer Period”) to
elect to purchase all of the Series A Offered Shares at the same price and subject to the same
material terms and conditions described in the Series A First Refusal Notice. The Ordinary Investor
may exercise the Ordinary Investor Series A Option and thereby be entitled to purchase all of the
Series A Offered Shares, by notifying the Series A Selling Investor in writing (with a copy to each
of the Other Series A Investors) before the expiration of the Series A First Offer Period as to its
election to so purchase all of the Series A Offered Shares. Payment for the Series A Offered Shares
shall be by check or wire transfer, against delivery of the Series A Offered Shares to be
purchased, at a place agreed upon between the parties and at the time of the scheduled closing
therefore, which shall be no later than forty-five (45) calendar days after the expiration of the
Series A First Offer Period. If the Ordinary Investor does not notify the Series A Selling Investor
in writing (with a copy to each of the Other Series A Investors), before the expiration of the
Series A First Offer Period, of its election to exercise the Ordinary Investor Series A Option in
accordance with the terms of this Section 5.2, the Ordinary Investor shall be deemed to have
irrevocably declined to exercise the Ordinary Investor Series A Option with respect to the Series A
Offered Shares.

     5.3 Other Investors’ Series A Option. In the event that the Ordinary Investor shall
have declined (or is deemed to have declined) to exercise the Series A Ordinary Investor Option
with respect to all of the Series A Offered Shares in accordance with Section 5.2, each of the
Other Series A Investors shall have an option (the “Series A Second Option”), for a period
commencing on and after the date on which the Ordinary Investor shall have so declined (or is so
deemed to have declined) to exercise the Ordinary Investor Series A Option and continuing through
and including the twentieth (20th) Business Day from receipt of the Series A First Refusal Notice
(the “Series A Second Offer Period”), to elect to purchase all of the Series A Offered
Shares not elected to be purchased by the Ordinary Investor pursuant to Section 5.2 at the same
price and subject to the same material terms and conditions described in the Series A First Refusal
Notice. Each of the Other Series A Investors may exercise its Series A Second Option and thereby be
entitled to purchase all or, pursuant to the provisions of the next succeeding sentence, a portion
of the Series A Offered Shares, by notifying the Series A Selling Investor in writing (with a copy
to each of the other Other Series A Investors) before the expiration of the Series A Second Offer
Period as to its election to so purchase all of the Offered Shares. If more than one of the Other
Series A Investors shall have elected to purchase all of the Series A Offered Shares, in accordance
with this Section 5.3, then each of such Other Series A Investors shall purchase its “pro
rata portion” of the Offered Shares. For purposes of this Section 5.3, “pro
rata portion” shall mean for each Other Series A Investor which shall have elected to
exercise its Series A Second Option a fraction, the numerator of which is equal to the number of
Series A Preference Shares held by such Other Series A Investor and the denominator of which is
equal to the aggregate number of Series A Preference Shares held by all Other Series A
Investors which have elected to exercise their respective Series A Second Options. Payment for
the Series A Offered Shares shall be by check or wire transfer, against delivery of the Series A
Offered Shares to be purchased, at a place agreed upon between the parties and at the time of the
scheduled closing therefore, which shall be no later than forty-five (45) calendar days after the
expiration of the Series A Second Offer Period. Not later than five (5) calendar days prior to the
time of the scheduled closing, the Series A Selling Investor shall notify each of the Other Series

21

 

A Investors which shall have elected to exercise its Series A Second Option of such Other Series A
Investor’s “pro rata portion” to be purchased by it in accordance with this Section
5.3.

     5.4. Series A Non-Exercise of Rights. To the extent the Ordinary Investor or the Other
Series A Investors do not elect to exercise their rights to purchase all of the Series A Offered
Shares, the Series A Selling Investor may, not later than ninety (90) days after the expiration of
the Series A Second Offer Period, conclude a transfer of the Series A Offered Shares at a value no
less than ninety percent (90%) of the proposed purchase price provided in the Series A First
Refusal Notice and upon non-price terms and conditions not materially more favorable to the
transferee than those specified in the Series A First Refusal Notice. Any proposed transfer on
terms and conditions materially more favorable than those described in the Series A First Refusal
Notice or any sale of the Series A Offered Shares after such ninety (90) day period, shall be made
only after compliance anew with the provisions of this Section 5.

     5.5 Notice of Series B Sales. If at any time a Series B Investor (the “Series B
Selling Investor”) proposes to sell, assign, transfer, exchange or otherwise convey or dispose
(any such sale, assignment, transfer, exchange or other conveyance or disposal being hereinafter
referred to as a “Series B Sale”) all or any portion of the Series B Preference Shares held
by such Series B Selling Investor (other than, in each case, to one (1) or more of its Affiliates),
then the Series B Selling Investor shall promptly give written notice (the “Series B First
Refusal Notice”) to the Ordinary Investor and each of the other Series B investors
(collectively, the “Other Series B Investors”) at least thirty (30) Business Days prior to
the closing of such Series B Sale. The Series B First Refusal Notice shall describe in reasonable
detail the proposed Series B Sale (including, without limitation, (i) the number of anticipated

Offered Shares”), (ii) the nature of such proposed Series B Sale, (iii) the consideration to be

     5.6 The Ordinary Investor’s Series B Option. The Ordinary Investor shall have an

from receipt of the First Refusal Notice (the “Series B First Offer Period”) to elect to
purchase all of the Series B Offered Shares at the same price and subject to the same material
terms and conditions described in the Series B First Refusal Notice. The Ordinary Investor may
exercise the Ordinary Investor Series B Option and thereby be entitled to purchase all of the
Series B Offered Shares, by notifying the Series B Selling Investor in writing (with a copy to each
of the Other Series B Investors) before the expiration of the Series B First Offer Period as to its
election to so purchase all of the Series B Offered Shares. Payment for the Series B Offered Shares
shall be by check or
wire transfer, against delivery of the Series B Offered Shares to be purchased, at a place
agreed upon between the parties and at the time of the scheduled closing therefore, which shall be
no later than forty-five (45) calendar days after the expiration of the Series B First Offer
Period. If the Ordinary Investor does not notify the Series B Selling Investor in writing (with a
copy to each of the Other Series B Investors), before the expiration of the Series B First Offer
Period, of its election to exercise the Ordinary Investor Series B Option in accordance with the
terms of this Section 5.6, the Ordinary Investor shall be deemed to have irrevocably declined to
exercise the Ordinary Investor Series B Option with respect to the Series B Offered Shares.

deemed to have declined) to exercise the Ordinary Investor Series B Option and continuing through
and including the twentieth (20th) Business Day from receipt of the Series B First Refusal Notice
(the “Series B Second Offer Period”), to elect to purchase all of the Series B Offered
Shares not elected to be purchased by the Ordinary Investor pursuant to Section 5.6 at the same
price and subject to the same material terms and conditions described in the Series B First Refusal
Notice. Each of the Other Series B Investors may exercise its Series B Second Option and thereby be
entitled to purchase all or, pursuant to the provisions of the next succeeding sentence, a portion
of the Series B Offered Shares, by notifying the Series B Selling Investor in writing (with a copy
to each of the other Other Series B Investors) before the expiration of the Series B Second Offer
Period as to its election to so purchase all of the Series B Offered Shares. If more than one of
the Other Series B Investors shall have elected to purchase all of the Series B Offered Shares, in
accordance with this Section 5.7, then each of such Other Series B Investors shall purchase its
“pro rata portion” of the Offered Series B Shares. For purposes of this Section
5.7, “pro rata portion” shall mean for each Other Series B Investor which shall
have elected to exercise its Series B Second Option a fraction, the numerator of which is equal to
the number of Series B Preference Shares held by such Other Series B Investor and the denominator
of which is equal to the aggregate number of Series B Preference Shares held by all Other Series B
Investors which have elected to exercise their respective Series B Second Options. Payment for the
Series B Offered Shares shall be by check or wire transfer, against delivery of the Series B
Offered Shares to be purchased, at a place agreed upon between the parties and at the time of the

no less than ninety percent (90%) of the proposed purchase price provided in the Series B
First Refusal Notice and upon non-price terms and conditions not materially more favorable to the
transferee than those specified in the Series B First Refusal Notice. Any proposed transfer on
terms and conditions materially more favorable than those described in the Series B First Refusal
Notice or any sale of the Series B Offered Shares after such ninety (90) day period, shall be made
only after compliance anew with the provisions of this Section 5.

     5.9 Termination. (a) The provisions of Sections 5.1, 5.2, 5.3 and 5.4 shall terminate

6. CO-SALE RIGHTS.

     6.1 Co-Sale Right. If the Ordinary Investor or any of the Management Shareholders (the
“Selling Shareholder”) proposes to sell, transfer, assign, exchange or otherwise convey or
dispose of all or a portion of the shares of Capital Stock of the Company, or rights to acquire
shares of Capital Stock of the Company, held by such Selling Shareholder (excluding any Series A
Preference Shares held by such Selling Shareholder), then the Selling Shareholder shall promptly
give written notice (the “Co-Sale Notice”) to each of the holders of Series A Preference
Shares and the Series B Preference Shares at least fifteen (15) Business Days prior to the closing
of such sale. The Co-Sale Notice shall describe in reasonable detail the proposed sale including,
without limitation, the number of shares to be sold or transferred (the “Co-Sale Shares”),
the nature of such sale, the consideration to be paid, and the name and address of each prospective
purchaser or transferee. Each holder of Series A Preference Shares and/or Series B Preference
Shares, as the case may be, shall have the right, exercisable upon written notice to the Selling
Shareholder within ten (10) Business Days after receipt of the Co-Sale Notice, to participate in
such sale of Co-Sale Shares on the same terms and conditions. To the extent one (1) or more of the
holders of the Series A Preference Shares and/or one (1) or more of the holders of the Series B
Preference Shares, as the case may be, exercises such right of co-sale (the “Co-Sale
Right”) in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth below, the number of Co-Sale
Shares that the Selling Shareholder may sell in the relevant transaction shall be correspondingly
reduced. The Co-Sale Right of each holder of Series A Preference Shares and/or Series B Preference
Shares, as the case may be, shall be subject to the following terms and conditions:

     (i) Each holder of Series A Preference Shares and/or Series B Preference Shares, as the
case may be, may sell all or any part of that number of the Series A Preference Shares and/or
Series B Preference Shares held by such holder of Series A Preference Shares and/or Series B
Preference Shares, as the case may be, that is equal to the product obtained by multiplying:

     (A) in the event that the Co-Sale Shares are Ordinary Shares, (x) the aggregate
number of shares of Co-Sale Shares set forth in the Co-Sale Notice by (y) a fraction,
the numerator of which is the number of Ordinary Shares held by or that would be
received upon conversion of the Series A Preference Shares and/or Series B Preference
Shares, as the case may be, owned by such Investor at the time of the sale and the
denominator of which is the aggregate number of Ordinary Shares held by or that would be
received by the Selling Shareholder and all Investors which are exercising their Co-Sale
Rights at such time; and

     (B) in the event that the Co-Sale Shares are Series A Preference Shares or Series B
Preference Shares, (a) the aggregate number of Series A Preference Shares and/or Series B
Preference Shares, as the case may be, set forth in the Co-Sale Notice by (b) a fraction,
the numerator of which is the number of Series A Preference Shares and/or Series B
Preference Shares, as the case may be, owned by such Investor at the time of the sale and
the denominator which is the aggregate number of Series A

24

 

Preference Shares and/or Series B Preference Shares, as the case may be, held by the
Selling Shareholder and all Investors which are exercising their Co-Sale Rights at such
time.

     (ii) Each holder of Series A Preference Shares and/or Series B Preference Shares, as the
case may be, shall effect its participation in the sale by promptly delivering to the
Secretary of the Company a written notice requesting the Secretary to revise the share ledger
to represent the proposed sale of Shares to the prospective purchaser upon the closing of the
proposed sale. Such notice shall include the following information:

     (A) The type and number of shares of Capital Stock of the Company which such holder
of Series A Preference Shares and/or Series B Preference Shares, as the case may be,
elects to sell; provided, that if the prospective purchaser objects to the delivery of
Series A Preference Shares or Series B Preference Shares in lieu of Ordinary Shares, such
holder of Series A Preference Shares and/or Series B Preference Shares, as the case may
be, shall convert such Series A Preference Shares and/or Series B Preference Shares, as
the case may be, into Ordinary Shares and deliver that number of Ordinary Shares as
calculated in Section 6.1(i)(A). The Company agrees to make any such conversion
concurrent with the actual sale of such Shares to the purchaser; and

     (B) The name and address of the prospective purchaser.

     6.2 Upon receipt of notice from the Company that the transfer of Shares in the stock ledger
has occurred, the Selling Shareholder shall concurrently therewith assign to such holder of Series
A Preference Shares and/or Series B Preference Shares, as the case may be, that portion of the sale
proceeds to which such holder of Series A Preference Shares and/or Series B Preference Shares, as
the case may be, is entitled by reason of its participation in such sale. To the extent that any
prospective purchaser or purchasers prohibit such assignment of proceeds or otherwise refuse to
purchase shares or other securities from a holder of Series A Preference Shares and/or Series B
Preference Shares, as the case may be, exercising its Co-Sale Rights, the Selling
Shareholder shall not sell to such prospective purchaser or purchasers any shares of Capital
Stock of the Company unless and until, simultaneously with such sale, the Selling Shareholder shall
purchase such shares of Capital Stock of the Company from such holder of Series A Preference Shares
and/or Series B Preference Shares, as the case may be.

     6.3 Non-Exercise of Rights. To the extent the holders of Series A Preference Shares
and/or Series B Preferred Shares do not elect to participate in the sale of Co-Sale Shares in the
time periods specified, the Selling Shareholder may, not later than one hundred twenty (120) days
following delivery to the holders of the Series A Preference Shares and/or Series B Preferred
Shares of the Co-Sale Notice, conclude a sale of the Co-Sale Shares on terms and conditions not
materially more favorable to the transferee than those described in the Co-Sale Notice. Any
proposed transfer on terms and conditions materially more favorable than those described in the
Co-Sale Notice or any sale of such Co-Sale Shares after the one hundred twenty (120) day period,
shall be made only after compliance anew with the provisions of this Section 6.

     6.4 Termination. The Co-Sale Right shall terminate with respect to holders of Series A
Preference Shares upon the closing of a Series A Qualified IPO, and with

25

 

respect to holders of Series B Preference Shares, upon the closing of a Series B Qualified IPO.

     6.5 Application. For avoidance of doubt, this Section 6 shall not apply to any sale,
transfer, assignment, exchange, conveyance or disposal of all or any portion of any Series A
Preference Shares held by the Ordinary Investor.

7. EXEMPT TRANSACTIONS.

     Notwithstanding the foregoing, the provisions of Section 5 and Section 6 shall not apply to
(a) any transfer by a Management Shareholder to the ancestors, descendants or spouse of such
Management Shareholder or to trusts for the benefit of such Persons; (b) any bona fide gift to
ancestors, descendants, spouse or bona fide charitable organizations by a Management Shareholder;
(c) any transfer pursuant to the provisions of a Management Shareholders employment agreement or
the Company’s stock option plans; or (d) any transfer required as a result of any anti-trust
investigation; provided that (i) the transferring Shareholder shall inform the other parties of
such transfer or gift prior to effecting it and (ii) the transferee or donee shall furnish the
Company and the other Shareholders with a written agreement to be bound by and comply with all
provisions of this Agreement applicable to the transferor. Such transferred Securities shall remain
“Securities” hereunder, and such transferee or donee shall be treated as, and subject to the
obligations of, the transferring Shareholder, Management Shareholder or Investor, as may be
applicable, for purposes of this Agreement.

8. ASSIGNMENT AND AMENDMENT.

     8.1 Assignment. The rights provided in this Agreement to any party other than the
Company may be assigned to a third party who is a permitted transferee of shares of Capital
Stock of the Company hereunder; provided, that no party may be assigned the Right of First
Offer unless the Company is given written notice by the holders of Series A Preference Shares
and/or Series B Preference Shares, as the case may be, proposing to assign the rights provided in
this Agreement at the time of such assignment stating the name and address of the assignee and
identifying the securities of the Company as to which the rights in question are being assigned and
which rights are being assigned; and provided further that any such assignee shall agree to be
bound by the terms of this Agreement.

     8.2 Amendment of Rights. Any provision of this Agreement may be amended and the
observance thereof may be waived (either generally or in a particular instance and either
retroactively or prospectively), only with the written consent of (i) as to the Company, only by
the Company, (ii) as to the Ordinary Investor, only by the Ordinary Investor, (iii) as to the
Series A Preference Shares, only by sixty percent (60%) of the holders of the Series A Preference
Shares then outstanding; (iv) as to the Series B Preference Shares, only by sixty percent (60%) of
the holders of the Series B Preference Shares then outstanding; and (v) as to the Management
Shareholders, only by each Management Shareholder. Any amendment or waiver effected in accordance

     9.1 The holders of the Series A Preference Shares, the holders of the Series B Preference
Shares, the Ordinary Investor and the Management Shareholders hereby agree that the holders of the

their then outstanding Series A Preference Shares and/or Series B Preference Shares, as the case
may be, into Ordinary Shares the day of such vote or written consent.

     9.2 The Company agrees not to effect any share split, reverse share split, share dividend,
recapitalization, reclassification or similar transaction which will adversely affect the voting
rights of the holders of the Series A Preference Shares or the holders of the Series B Preference

respective power, including, but not limited to, the voting of all Securities owned by them, to

consideration for this Agreement, agrees that neither any Investor nor any Investor Board
Member shall have any duty to disclose any Competitive Information to the Company or permit
the Company to participate in any projects or investments based on any Competitive
Information, or to otherwise take advantage of any opportunity that may be of interest to the
Company if it were aware of such Competitive Information, and hereby waives, to the extent
permitted by law, any claim based on the corporate opportunity doctrine or otherwise that
could limit any Investor’s ability to pursue opportunities based on such Competitive
Information or that would require any Investor or Investor Board Member to disclose any such
Competitive Information to the Company or offer any opportunity relating thereto to the
Company.

     (e) Each of the Investors acknowledges that the Company and members of the Board will

that the Company, acting through its Chairman, Secretary or other authorized officer, may
require that none of a particular Investor, or any Investor Board Member shall participate in
any discussions of the Board or any committees thereof or receive any information or
documentation with respect to any Company Information that may compromise the Company’s
interest in maintaining the confidentiality of Company Information from present or potential
competitors or with respect to which the Company is

29

     Each Person making a communication hereunder by facsimile shall promptly confirm by telephone

     11.2 Inspection Rights. For as long as an Investor holds at least twenty-five percent
(25%) of the Series A Preference Shares and/or Series B Preference Shares in the aggregate held by
such Investor as of the date hereof or the number of Ordinary Shares issued upon conversion of such
Series A Preference Shares and/or Series B Preference Shares, as the case may be, the Company shall
permit such Investor, at such Investor’s expense, to examine the books of account and records and
other documents of the Company reasonably related to such Investor’s interest as an equity holder
of the Company at such reasonable times as may be requested by the Investor; provided, however,
that no information shall be provided, and no inspection rights granted, that would violate any
confidentiality obligations of the Company.

     11.3 Entire Agreement. This Agreement, together with all the Schedules and Exhibits
hereto and the other documents identified herein, constitutes and contains the entire agreement and
understanding of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes any and all
prior negotiations, correspondence, agreements, understandings, duties or obligations, written or
oral, among the parties respecting the subject matter hereof; provided, however, that nothing in
this Agreement shall be deemed to terminate or supersede the provisions of any confidentiality and
nondisclosure agreements executed by the parties hereto prior to the date hereof, which agreements
shall continue in full force and effect until terminated in accordance with their respective terms.

     11.4 Governing Law. This Agreement, and any claim, counterclaim or dispute of any kind
or nature whatsoever arising out of or in any way relating to this Agreement, directly or
indirectly, shall be governed by and construed exclusively in accordance with the internal laws of
the State of New York without regard to conflict of laws and choice of law.

     11.5 Dispute Resolution. The parties agree to negotiate in good faith to resolve any
dispute between them regarding this Agreement. If the negotiations do not resolve the dispute to
the reasonable satisfaction of all parties, then each party shall nominate one senior officer of
the rank of Vice President or higher as its representative. These representatives shall, within
thirty (30) days of a written request by any party to call such a meeting, meet in person and alone
(except for one assistant for each party) and shall attempt in good faith to resolve the dispute.
If the disputes cannot be resolved by such senior managers in such meeting, the parties agree that
they shall, if requested in writing by any party, meet within thirty (30) days after such written
notification for one day with an impartial mediator and consider dispute resolution alternatives
other than litigation. If an alternative method of dispute resolution is not agreed upon within
thirty (30) days after the one day mediation, any party may begin litigation proceedings.

     11.6 Submission to Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial. The Company, the Ordinary
Investor, the Management Shareholders and the Investors hereby submit to the jurisdiction of the
state and
federal courts located within the State of New York for purposes of all legal proceedings
which may arise hereunder or under any of the other documents entered into in connection herewith.
The Company, the Ordinary Investor, the Management Shareholders and the Investors irrevocably
waive, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any objection which it may have or hereafter have to
the laying of the venue of any such proceeding brought in such a court and any claim that any such
proceeding brought in such a court has been brought in an inconvenient forum. The Company, the
Ordinary Investor, the Management Shareholders and the Investors hereby consent to process being
served in any such proceeding by the mailing of a

34

 

copy thereof by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, to its address specified in Section
11.1 or in any other manner permitted by law. THE COMPANY, THE ORDINARY INVESTOR, THE MANAGEMENT
SHAREHOLDERS AND THE INVESTORS HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY, AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVE ANY RIGHTS
THEY MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION BASED HEREON, OR ARISING OUT OF,
UNDER, OR IN CONNECTION WITH, THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER DOCUMENTS ENTERED INTO IN CONNECTION
HEREWITH, OR ANY COURSE OF CONDUCT, COURSE OF DEALING, OR STATEMENTS (WHETHER VERBAL OR WRITTEN),
OF THE COMPANY, THE ORDINARY INVESTOR, THE MANAGEMENT SHAREHOLDERS AND THE INVESTORS.

     11.7 Severability. If any term, provision, agreement, covenant or restriction of the
Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction or other authority to be invalid, void or
unenforceable, the remainder of the terms, provisions, agreements, covenants and restrictions of
this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or
invalidated so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is
not effected in any manner materially adverse to any party. Upon such a determination, the parties
shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the
parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner in order that the transactions contemplated
hereby be consummated as originally contemplated to the fullest extent possible.

     11.8 Third Parties. Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to
confer upon any Person, other than the parties hereto and their permitted successors and assigns,
any rights or remedies under or by reason of this Agreement.

     11.9 Successors and Assigns. Subject to the provisions of Section 8.1, the provisions
of this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of, and shall be binding upon, the successors and
permitted assigns of the parties hereto.

     11.10 Captions. The captions to sections of this Agreement have been inserted for
identification and reference purposes only and shall not be used to construe or interpret this
Agreement.

     11.11 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which
shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same
instrument. Delivery by facsimile of an executed counterpart of any signature page to this
Agreement to be executed hereunder shall have the same effectiveness as the delivery of a manually
executed counterpart thereof.

     11.12 Adjustments for Stock Splits, Etc. Wherever in this Agreement there is a
reference to a specific number of Series A Preference Shares or Series B Preference Shares of the
Company, then, upon the occurrence of any subdivision, combination or stock dividend of Series A
Preference Shares or Series B Preference Shares, as the case may be, the specific number of shares
so referenced in this Agreement shall automatically be proportionally adjusted to reflect the
affect on the outstanding shares of such class or series of stock by such subdivision, combination
or stock dividend.
