2.  Board Designation Rights. So long as Sponsor owns in the aggregate more than fifty percent (50%) of the outstanding Shares it held as of the Closing (subject to appropriate adjustment in the event of any stock dividend, stock split, combination or other similar recapitalization with respect to Common Stock), Sponsor shall be entitled to designate (and the Company shall be required to appoint and/or nominate for election at any annual or special meeting of the stockholders of the Company (or action by written consent) for the election of directors to the Board of Directors) one (1) individual to the Board of Directors (such individual, the “Designated Director”), who shall initially be [   ] (the “Initial Designated Director”), effective as of immediately following the First Effective Time. If the Initial Designated Director is unable or unwilling to serve at the Closing, Sponsor shall promptly designate a replacement director and provide any relevant information about such appointee as the Company may reasonably request. The Designated Director shall remain in office as a director until his or her successor is elected and qualified or until his or her earlier death, resignation or removal. A Designated Director may be removed at any time (i) with or without cause upon the written request of Sponsor or (ii) pursuant to the Organizational Documents, for cause and by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the issued and outstanding capital stock of the Company entitled to vote in the election of directors, voting together as a single class. In the event that a vacancy is created on the Board of Directors at any time due to the death, disability, retirement, resignation, or removal of a Designated Director, then Sponsor shall have the right to designate an individual to fill such vacancy and the Company shall promptly appoint such person to fill such vacancy, and in any event, within no later than three (3) days of Sponsor’s designation, and such person shall thereafter be deemed the Designated Director under this Agreement. During the period a Designated

Director is a director of the Board of Directors, the Company shall, at its own expense, provide to such Designated Director the same benefits as any other non-employee director of the Board of Directors, including reimbursement of expenses under any applicable director and officer indemnification or insurance policy maintained by the Company. If a member of the Board of Directors of the Company includes a director who (x) does not qualify as an “independent director”, (y) is not an employee of the Company and (z) is Affiliated with a Stockholder (“Non-Affiliated Director”), and such Non-Affiliated Director receives any cash or non-cash compensation for his or her director services, then the Designated Director, whether or not he or she qualifies as a Non-Affiliated Director, will be entitled to the same cash and non-cash compensation for director services. Each Stockholder further agrees that all securities of the Company that may vote in the election of directors to the Board of Directors that such Stockholder holds, purchases, acquires the right to vote or otherwise acquires beneficial ownership of (including by the exercise or conversion of any security exercisable or convertible for Company Interests) after the execution of this Agreement shall be subject to the terms of this Agreement and shall constitute Shares for all purposes of this Agreement.

3.  No Restrictions on Transfer. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to restrict the transfer of Shares by any Stockholder to any other Person any Shares or other securities of the Company held by any Stockholder as of the date hereof; provided, that such transferee shall not be subject to any limitations, or have any rights, under this Agreement.

Except as expressly provided herein, no Stockholder may assign, transfer or delegate any or all of its rights or remedies, obligations or liabilities under or by reason of this Agreement without the prior written consent of the Company, and any such assignment in violation of this Agreement shall be null and void, ab initio. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the rights under this Agreement may be assigned (but only with all related obligations) by a Stockholder to any of his, her or its Affiliates, with the Company’s prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably conditioned, withheld or delayed).

4.6  Waivers. Any party to this Agreement may, at any time prior to the Closing, by action taken by its board of directors, or officers thereunto duly authorized, waive any of the terms or conditions of this

E-3

Agreement, or agree to an amendment or modification to this Agreement in the manner contemplated by Section 5.5 and by an agreement in writing executed in the same manner (but not necessarily by the same Stockholders) as this Agreement.

4.7  Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is held invalid or unenforceable by any court of competent jurisdiction, the other provisions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect. The parties further agree that if any provision contained herein is, to any extent, held invalid or unenforceable in any respect under the laws governing this Agreement, they shall take any actions necessary to render the remaining provisions of this Agreement valid and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law and shall amend or otherwise modify this Agreement to replace any provision contained herein that is held invalid or unenforceable with a valid and enforceable provision giving effect to the intent of the parties.

4.8  Aggregation. All Shares held or acquired by a Stockholder (including its Affiliates) shall be aggregated together for the purpose of determining the availability of any rights under this Agreement and such Affiliates may apportion such rights as among themselves in any manner they deem appropriate.

4.9  Entire Agreement. The Transaction Agreements constitute the entire agreement among the parties and supersede any other agreements, whether written or oral, that may have been made or entered into by or among any of the parties hereto or any of their respective Subsidiaries relating to the transactions. No representations, warranties, covenants, understandings, agreements, oral or otherwise, relating to this Agreement exist between the parties except as expressly set forth or referenced in this Agreement.

4.10 Jurisdiction; WAIVER OF TRIAL BY JURY. Any Action based upon, arising out of or related to this Agreement shall be brought in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware or, if such court lacks jurisdiction, the state or federal courts in the State of Delaware, and each of the parties irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of each such court in any such Action, waives any objection it may now or hereafter have to personal jurisdiction, venue or to convenience of forum, agrees that all claims in respect of the Action shall be heard and determined only in any such court, and agrees not to bring any Action arising out of or relating to this Agreement in any other court. Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to affect the right of any party to serve process in any manner permitted by law, or to commence legal proceedings or otherwise proceed against any other party in any other jurisdiction, in each case, to enforce judgments obtained in any Action brought pursuant to this Section 4.10. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION BASED UPON, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO CERTIFIES AND ACKNOWLEDGES THAT (A) NO REPRESENTATIVE OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER, (B) EACH SUCH PARTY UNDERSTANDS AND HAS CONSIDERED THE IMPLICATIONS OF THIS WAIVER, (C) EACH SUCH PARTY MAKES THIS WAIVER VOLUNTARILY, AND (D) EACH SUCH PARTY HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS IN THIS SECTION 4.10.
