3. Right of First Refusal. Other than a Permitted Transfer, before any Equity Securities may be Transferred by a Holder (the "Selling Holder") such Equity Securities (the "Selling Holder Shares") shall first be offered to the Company and then to the Holders in the following manner:
(a) Notice by the Selling Holder. The Selling Holder shall deliver a notice by certified mail ("Notice") to the principal business office of the Company and to each of the Holders stating (i) his bona fide intention to sell or Transfer the Selling Holder Shares, (ii) the number of Selling Holder Shares to be Transferred, (iii) the price and terms, if any, for which he proposes to Transfer the Selling Holder Shares and (iv) the name and address of the proposed purchaser or transferee and that such purchaser or transferee is committed to acquire the stated number of shares on the stated price and terms.
(b) Company's Right to Purchase Selling Holder Shares. The Company shall have the right at any time within thirty (30) days of receipt of the Notice to purchase some or all of the Selling Holder Shares at the price per share specified in the Notice.
(c) Notice by the Company. If the Company (or its designee(s)) desires to purchase all or any part of the Selling Holder Shares, the Company (or its designee(s)) shall communicate in writing of its election to purchase the Selling Holder Shares to the Selling Holder and Holders ("Company Election") which communication shall state the number of Selling Holder Shares the Company desires to purchase and shall be given in accordance with the notice requirements of this Agreement.
3
(d) Holders' Right to Purchase Selling Holder Shares. If the Company (or its designee(s)) does not purchase all of the Selling Holder Shares, each Holder or a designated Affiliate shall have the right within ten (10) days of receipt of the Company Election to purchase that number of the balance of the Selling Holder Shares as shall be equal to the number of Selling Holder Shares multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of Shares then owned by such Holder and its Affiliates and the denominator of which shall be the aggregate number of Shares then owned by all of the Holders who have delivered an election to purchase the Selling Holder Shares. The amount of Selling Holder Shares that each Holder and its Affiliates is entitled to purchase under this Section 3(d) shall be referred to as the "Pro Rata Fraction." Each Holder desiring to purchase the Selling Holder Shares under this Section 3 shall communicate in writing of its election to purchase the Selling Holder Shares to the Selling Holder ("Shareholder Election") which communication shall state the number of Selling Holder Shares such Holder and its Affiliates desire to purchase and shall be given in accordance with the notice requirements of this Agreement.
(e) Oversubscription. Each Holder shall have the right of oversubscription such that if a Holder fails to purchase all of his Pro Rata Fraction, the other Holder shall have the right to purchase the balance of Selling Holder Shares not so purchased. Such right of oversubscription may be exercised by the Holder by offering to purchase more than his Pro Rata Fraction. If, as a result thereof, such oversubscription exceeds the total number of Selling Holder Shares available in respect of such oversubscription rights, the oversubscribing Holder shall be cut back with respect to his oversubscription on a pro rata basis in accordance with his respective Pro Rata Fraction or as the Holders may otherwise agree amongst themselves.
(f) Selling Holder's Right to Sell Selling Holders Shares. Notwithstanding any of the foregoing subsections in this Section 3, if the Company and/or the Holders do not purchase all of the Selling Holder Shares pursuant to this Section 3, each of the Company's and the Holders' right to purchase the Selling Holder Shares shall be forfeited and the Selling Holder may Transfer all of the Selling Holder Shares to the proposed purchaser (identified in the Notice) on terms no less favorable than as set forth in the Notice. In the event the Selling Holder does not sell the Selling Holder Shares to the proposed purchaser within 120 days after the date of the Notice, the Selling Holder shall not sell any Selling Holder Shares without first offering to sell the Selling Holder Shares to the Company and Holders pursuant to this Section 3.
(g) Notice Constitutes an Agreement to Purchase. If the Company (or its designee(s)) or the Holders elect to purchase all or any portion of the Selling Holder Shares, the Company Notice or a Shareholder Notice delivered by the Company or any of the Holders shall be deemed to constitute a valid, legally binding and enforceable agreement for the sale and purchase of the Selling Holder Shares. Sales of Selling Holder Shares to be sold to the Company (or its designee(s)) or to the Holders pursuant to this Section 3 shall be made at the offices of the Company on the 45th day following the date of the Notice (or if such 45th day is not a business day, then on the next succeeding business day). Such sales shall be effected by the delivery to the Company of a certificate or certificates evidencing the Selling Holder Shares to be purchased by the Company (or its designee(s)) or the Holders, duly endorsed for transfer to such party, in exchange for cash payment to the Selling Holder in the amount of the purchase price therefor by the party purchasing such Selling Holder Shares.
4. Preemptive Right.
(a) General. If the Company issues any New Securities, it shall offer to sell to each Holder, a Ratable Portion (defined below) of such New Securities on the same terms and conditions and at the lowest price as such New Securities are issued to any person. "Ratable Portion" shall mean that portion of such New Securities that bear the same ratio (including for this purpose all New
4
Securities which may be purchased by the Holders pursuant to this Section 4) as the number of Shares held by such Holder bears to all Shares then outstanding.
(b) Procedure. In the event that the Company proposes to undertake an issuance of New Securities, it shall give to each Holder written notice of its intention to issue New Securities (also referred to as the "Notice"), describing the type of New Securities and the price and the general terms upon which the Company proposes to issue such New Securities. Each Holder shall have ten (10) days from the date of receipt of any such Notice to agree in writing to purchase or allow an Affiliate to purchase his Ratable Portion of such New Securities for the price and upon the general terms specified in the Notice by giving written notice to the Company and stating therein the quantity of New Securities to be purchased (not to exceed his Ratable Portion). If a Holder fails to agree in writing within such ten day period to purchase or allow an Affiliate to purchase his full Ratable Portion of an offering of New Securities (a "Nonpurchasing Holder"), then such Nonpurchasing Holder shall forfeit the right hereunder to purchase that part of his Ratable Portion of such New Securities that he did not so agree to purchase and the Company shall promptly give the remaining Holders who timely agreed to purchase their full Ratable Portion of such offering of New Securities (a "Purchasing Holder") written notice of the failure of the Nonpurchasing Holder to purchase his full Ratable Portion of New Securities (the "Overallotment Notice"). A Purchasing Holder shall have a right of overallotment such that the Purchasing Holder may agree to purchase or allow an Affiliate to purchase the Nonpurchasing Holders' unpurchased Ratable Portion at any time within five (5) days after receiving the Overallotment Notice. If more than one Purchasing Holder wishes to purchase the Nonpurchasing Holders' unpurchased Ratable Portion, the overallotment shall be divided among the Purchasing Holders based on each such Purchasing Holder's Ratable Portion.
(c) Failure to Exercise. In the event that a Holder fails to exercise the rights granted to him in Sections 4(a) and (b) above (the "Preemptive Right") within such ten (10) plus five (5) day period, then the Company shall have 120 days thereafter to sell the New Securities with respect to which the Holder's Preemptive Rights were not exercised, at a price and upon general terms not materially more favorable to the purchasers thereof than specified in the Company's Notice to the Holders. In the event that the Company has not issued and sold the New Securities within such 120 day period, then the Company shall not thereafter issue or sell any New Securities without again first offering such New Securities to the Holders pursuant to this Section 4.
5. Tag-Along Rights. Subject to the provisions of Section 3 hereof and except for a Permitted Transfer under Section 2, in the event a Holder (an "Offering Holder") intends to Transfer Shares (also referred to as "Offered Shares"), such Offering Holder shall notify each other Holder, in writing, of such Transfer and its terms and conditions, including, without limitation, (i) his bona fide intention to sell or Transfer the Offered Shares, (ii) the number of Offered Shares to be Transferred, (iii) the price and terms, if any, for which he proposes to Transfer the Offered Shares and (iv) the name and address of the proposed purchaser or transferee and that such purchaser or transferee is committed to acquire the stated number of shares on the stated price and terms ("Offering Holder Notice"). Within 20 days of the date of such notice, each Holder (other than the Offering Holder) shall notify the Offering Holder in writing (the "Co-Sale Notice") if it or he elects to participate in such Transfer. Each Holder that so notifies the Offering Holder shall have the right to sell, at the same price and on the same terms as the Offering Holder, an amount of shares equal to the Shares the third party proposes to purchase multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of Shares issued and owned by such Holder and the denominator of which shall be the aggregate number of Shares issued and owned by the Offering Holder and each Holder exercising its rights under this Section 5. Nothing contained in this Section 5 shall in any way limit or restrict the Offering Holder's ability to amend, modify or terminate any agreement with a third party with respect to any Transfer of its Shares pursuant to this Section 5, and the Offering Holder shall have no liability to any Holder with respect to
5
such amendment, modification or termination unless any of the foregoing breaches this Agreement. If no Co-Sale Notice is received during the 20-day period referred to above (or if the Co-Sale Notice does not cover all of the Shares proposed to be Transferred), the Offering Holder shall have the right, for a 60-day period after the expiration of the 20-day period referred to above, to Transfer the Shares specified in the Offering Holder Notice (or the remaining Shares) on terms and conditions no more favorable than those stated in the Offering Holder Notice, so long as the proposed purchaser agrees to enter into a joinder of this Agreement whereby such person shall become subject to the terms and conditions hereof.
6. Drag-Along Rights.
(a) General. Subject to the provisions of Section 3 and the prior approval of a majority of the directors of the Board, in the event a Holder or Holders owning more than 75% of the issued and outstanding Shares (the "Selling Group") wish to Transfer in a bona fide arms' length sale all of the Shares then owned by them to any person who is not an affiliate of such Selling Group (the "Proposed Transferee"), the Selling Group shall have the right (the "Drag-Along Right") upon the approval of a majority of the directors of the Board to require all of the Holders to sell to the Proposed Transferee all of the Shares then owned by such Holders for the same per share consideration and otherwise on the same terms received by the Selling Group. Each Holder agrees to take all steps necessary to enable it or him to comply with the provisions of this Section 6, including the delivery of certificates for all such Shares duly endorsed or accompanied by appropriate instruments of transfer and free and clear of any liens or other encumbrances; provided, however, that in connection with any such transaction (x) each Holder shall not be required to make any representations or warranties except those relating to (i) its own due organization and execution and delivery of the relevant agreement, (ii) the enforceability of the relevant agreement against it and absence of conflicts with agreements and laws applicable to it and (iii) its ownership of securities being sold by it, (y) the Holders shall not be required to provide any post-closing indemnities except as provided in clause (z) below and (z) in the event that a portion of the purchase price is placed in escrow to support purchase price adjustment obligations post-closing (including indemnification for breaches of representations or warranties relating to the Company and its subsidiaries), the Holders will have a pro rata portion of their purchase price placed in such escrow to be utilized to pay any such indemnification obligations.
(b) Procedure. To exercise a Drag-Along Right, the Selling Group shall, after receiving Board approval in accordance with Section 6(a), give each Holder a written notice (the "Drag-Along Notice") containing (i) the name and address of the Proposed Transferee, and (ii) the proposed purchase price, terms of payment and other material terms and conditions of the Proposed Transferee's offer. Each Holder shall thereafter be obligated to sell its Shares subject to such Drag-Along Notice, provided that the sale to the Proposed Transferee is consummated within sixty (60) days of delivery of the Drag-Along Notice. If the sale is not consummated within such 60-day period, then each Holder shall no longer be obligated to sell such Holder's shares pursuant to that specific Drag-Along Right, but each Holder's shares shall remain subject to the provisions of this Section 6.
7. Legend. Each existing or replacement certificate for Shares now owned by the Holders shall bear the following legend upon its face:
"THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED. THE TRANSFER, ENCUMBRANCE, PLEDGE, ASSIGNMENT OR OTHER DISPOSITION OF THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE IS SUBJECT TO THE CONDITIONS AND RESTRICTIONS SPECIFIED IN (1) A SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT, DATED AS OF , BY AND BETWEEN THE COMPANY AND A CERTAIN INVESTOR AND

DLJMB will be bound by all actions taken by the Stockholders Representative in connection with this Agreement. In performing its functions hereunder, the Stockholders Representative will not be liable to DLJMB in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct.
18. Further Instruments and Actions. The parties agree to execute such further instruments and to take such further action as may reasonably be necessary to carry out the intent of this Agreement. The parties further agree to cooperate affirmatively with the Company, to the extent reasonably requested by the Company to enforce rights and obligations to this Agreement.
19. Amendments and Waivers. Any term 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 a majority in interest of the Holders; provided, however, that any amendment of this Agreement that shall adversely impact any Holders of a series of Equity Securities in a manner different from other Holders shall require the written consent of 662/3% in interest of the Holders of the series of Equity Securities so adversely affected. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no amendment to or waiver of any provision of Section 8(c)(i) of this Agreement shall be effective without the mutual written consent of KRG and DLJMB. Any amendment or waiver effected in accordance with this Section 19 shall be binding upon the Company and the Holders.
20. Rights; Severability. Unless otherwise expressly provided herein, a Holder's rights hereunder are several rights, not rights jointly held with any other Holder. In case any provision of this Agreement shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.
21. Specific Enforcement; Cumulative Remedies. The parties hereto acknowledge that money damages may not be an adequate remedy for violations of this Agreement and that any party, in addition to any other rights and remedies which the parties may have hereunder or at law or in equity, may, in his or its sole discretion, apply to a court of competent jurisdiction for specific performance or injunction or such other relief as such court may deem just and proper in order to enforce this Agreement or prevent any violation hereof and, to the extent permitted by applicable law, each party waives any objection to the imposition of such relief. All rights, powers and remedies provided under this Agreement or otherwise available in respect hereof at law or in equity shall be cumulative and not alternative, and the exercise or beginning of the exercise of any thereof by any party shall not preclude the simultaneous or later exercise of any other such rights, powers or remedies by such party.
22. Counterparts; Facsimile Signatures. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, both of which need not contain the signatures of more than one party, but both such counterparts taken

together will constitute one and the same Agreement. This Agreement may be executed and delivered by facsimile transmission.
