The Company and the Warrant Agent may deem and treat the registered holders (the "Holders" or "Warrantholders") of the Warrant Certificates as the ------- -------------- absolute owners thereof (notwithstanding any notation of ownership or other writing thereon made by anyone) for all purposes, and neither the Company nor the Warrant Agent shall be affected by any notice to the contrary. SECTION 5. Transfer and Exchange of Warrants. The Warrant Agent --------------------------------- shall from time to time, subject to the limitations of Section 6, register the transfer of any outstanding Warrants upon the records to be maintained by it for that purpose, upon surrender -6- thereof duly endorsed or accompanied (if so required by it) by a written instrument or instruments of transfer in form satisfactory to the Warrant Agent, duly executed by the registered Holder or Holders thereof or by the duly appointed legal representative thereof or by a duly authorized attorney.

Any Holder desiring to exchange a Warrant Certificate or Certificates shall make such request in writing delivered to the Warrant Agent, and shall surrender, duly endorsed or accompanied (if so required by the Warrant Agent) by a written instrument or instruments of transfer in form satisfactory to the Warrant Agent, the Warrant Certificate or Certificates to be so exchanged. Upon registration of transfer, the Company shall execute and the Warrant Agent shall countersign and deliver by certified mail a new Warrant Certificate or Certificates to the persons entitled thereto. The Warrant Certificates may be exchanged at the option of the Holder thereof, when surrendered at the office or agency of the Company maintained for such purpose, which initially will be the corporate trust office of the Warrant Agent in New York, New York for another Warrant Certificate, or other Warrant Certificates of different denominations, of like tenor and representing in the aggregate the right to purchase a like number of Warrant Shares. No service charge shall be made for any exchange or registration of transfer of Warrant Certificates, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any stamp or other tax or other governmental charge that is imposed in connection with any such exchange or registration of transfer.

When Warrants are presented --------------------------------- to the Warrant Agent with a request: (i) to register the transfer of the Warrants; or (ii) to exchange such Definitive Warrants for an equal number of Warrants of other authorized denominations, the Warrant Agent shall register the transfer or make the exchange as requested if (and may refuse to register any transfer or exchange unless) the requirements under this Agreement as set forth in this Section 6 for such transactions are met; provided, however, that the Warrants presented or surrendered for -------- ------- registration of transfer or exchange: -7- (x) shall be duly endorsed or accompanied by a written instruction of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Warrant Agent, duly executed by the holder thereof or by his or her attorney, duly authorized in writing; and (y) in the case of Warrants the offer and sale of which have not been registered under the Securities Act, such Warrants shall be accompanied, in the sole discretion of the Company, by the following additional information and documents, as applicable, it being understood, however, that the Warrant Agent need not determine which clause (A) through (D) below is applicable: (A) if such Warrant is being delivered to the Warrant Agent by a holder for registration in the name of such holder, without transfer, a certification from such holder to that effect (in substantially the form of Exhibit C); or --------- (B) if such Warrant is being transferred to a qualified institutional buyer (as defined in Rule 144A under the Securities Act ("Rule ---- 144A")) (a "QIB") in accordance with Rule 144A or pursuant to an ---- --- exemption from registration in accordance with Rule 144 or Regulation S under the Securities Act, a certification to that effect (in substantially the form of Exhibit C); or --------- (C) if such Warrant is being transferred to an institutional accredited investor within the meaning of subparagraph (a)(1), (a)(2), (a)(3) or (a)(7) of Rule 501 under the Securities Act (an "Institutional Accredited Investor"), delivery of a Certificate --------------------------------- of Transfer (in substantially the form of Exhibit D) and an --------- opinion of counsel and/or other information reasonably acceptable to the Company to the effect that such transfer is in compliance with the Securities Act; or (D) if such Warrant is being transferred in reliance on another exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act, a certification to that effect from the transferee or transferor (in substantially the form of Exhibit C), and an --------- opinion of counsel from the transferee or transferor reasonably acceptable to the Company to the effect that such transfer is in compliance with the Securities Act. If such transfer is made specifically pursuant to Regulation S, delivery by the transferor must also deliver a Certificate for Regulation S Transfers in substantially the form of Exhibit E. --------- (b) Restrictions on Transfer of a Definitive Warrant for a Beneficial ----------------------------------------------------------------- Interest in a Global Warrant. A Definitive Warrant may not be transferred by a ---------------------------- holder for a beneficial interest in a Global Warrant except upon satisfaction of the requirements set forth below. -8- Upon receipt by the Warrant Agent of a Definitive Warrant, duly endorsed or accompanied by appropriate instruments of transfer, in form satisfactory to the Warrant Agent, together with: (i) certification from such holder (in substantially the form of Exhibit C) that such Definitive Warrant is being transferred --------- to a QIB in accordance with Rule 144A under the Securities Act; and (ii) written instructions directing the Warrant Agent to make, or to direct the Depositary to make, an endorsement on the Global Warrant to reflect an increase in the aggregate amount of the Warrants represented by the Global Warrant, then the Warrant Agent shall cancel such Definitive Warrant and cause, or direct the Depositary to cause, in accordance with the standing instructions and procedures existing between the Depositary and the Warrant Agent, the number of Warrant Shares represented by the Global Warrant to be increased accordingly. If no Global Warrant is then outstanding, the Company shall issue and the Warrant Agent shall upon written instructions from the Company authenticate a new Global Warrant in the appropriate amount.

(ii) Definitive Warrants issued in exchange for a beneficial interest in a Global Warrant pursuant to this Section 6 shall be registered in such names and in such authorized denominations as the Depositary, pursuant to instructions from its direct or indirect participants or otherwise, shall instruct the Warrant Agent in writing.

(f) Countersignature of Definitive Warrants in Absence of ----------------------------------------------------- Depositary. If at any time: (i) the Depositary for the Global Warrants notifies the Company that the Depositary is unwilling or unable to continue as Depositary for the Global Warrants and a successor Depositary for the Global Warrant is not appointed by the Company within 90 days after delivery of such notice; or (ii) the Company, at its sole discretion, notifies the Warrant Agent in writing that it elects to cause the issuance of Definitive Warrants for all Global Warrants under this Agreement, then the Company will execute, and the Warrant Agent will, upon receipt of an Officers' Certificate requesting the countersignature and delivery of Definitive Warrants, countersign and deliver Definitive Warrants, in an aggregate number equal to the aggregate number of Warrants represented by the Global Warrant, in exchange for such Global Warrant. (g) Cancellation or Adjustment of a Global Warrant. At such time as ---------------------------------------------- all beneficial interests in a Global Warrant have either been exchanged for Definitive Warrants, redeemed, repurchased or canceled, such Global Warrant shall be returned to the Company or, upon written order to the Warrant Agent in the form of an Officers' Certificate from the Company, retained and canceled by the Warrant Agent. At any time prior to such cancellation, if any beneficial interest in a Global Warrant is exchanged for Definitive Warrants, redeemed, repurchased or canceled, the number of Warrants represented by such Global Warrant shall be reduced and an endorsement shall be made on such Global Warrant by the Warrant Agent to reflect such reduction. (h) Legends. ------- (i) Private Placement Legend. Except as permitted by the following ------------------------ sentence, each Warrant Certificate evidencing the Warrants (and all Warrants issued in exchange therefor or substitution thereof and, if the Company deems appropriate, Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants) shall bear a legend substantially to the effect set forth in Exhibit B(1). Upon ------------ any sale or transfer of a Warrant or Warrant Share -11- pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act in accordance with this Section 6 or under an effective registration statement under the Securities Act, the Warrant Agent shall permit the holder of a Warrant to exchange such Warrant for a Definitive Warrant and the Company shall permit the holder of a Warrant Share to exchange such Warrant Share for a share of Common Stock, in each case, that does not bear the legend set forth in Exhibit B(1). ------------ (ii) Unit Legend. Each Warrant issued prior to the Separability ----------- Date shall bear a legend substantially to the effect set forth in Exhibit B(2). ------------ (i) Obligations with Respect to Transfers and Exchanges of Definitive ----------------------------------------------------------------- and Global Warrants. ------------------- (i) To permit registrations of transfers and exchanges, the Company shall execute, at the Warrant Agent's request, and the Warrant Agent shall authenticate Definitive and Global Warrants. (ii) All Definitive and Global Warrants issued upon any registration, transfer or exchange of Definitive and Global Warrants shall be the valid obligations of the Company, entitled to the same benefits under this Agreement as the Definitive and Global Warrants surrendered upon the registration of transfer or exchange. (iii) Prior to due presentment for registration of transfer of any Warrant, the Warrant Agent and the Company may deem and treat the Person in whose name any Warrant is registered as the absolute owner of such Warrant, and neither the Warrant Agent nor the Company shall be affected by notice to the contrary. (j) Payment of Taxes. The Company will pay all documentary stamp ---------------- taxes attributable to the initial issuance of the Warrant Shares upon the exercise of Warrants; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required -------- ------- to pay any tax or taxes which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issue of any Warrant Certificates or any certificates for the Warrant Shares in a name other than that of the registered holder of a Warrant Certificate surrendered upon the exercise of a Warrant, and the Company shall not be required to issue or deliver such Warrant Certificates or any certificates for the Warrant Shares unless or until the Person or Persons requesting the issuance thereof shall have paid to the Company the amount of such tax or shall have established to the satisfaction of the Company that such tax has been paid. SECTION 7. Terms of Warrants; Exercise of Warrants. Subject to the --------------------------------------- terms of this Agreement, each Warrantholder shall have the right, which may be exercised -12- commencing on or after the Separability Date and until 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on May 1, 2010 (the "Expiration Date"), to receive from the --------------- Company upon the exercise of each Warrant the number of fully paid and nonassessable Warrant Shares which the holder may at the time be entitled to receive on exercise of such Warrants and payment of the Exercise Price (as defined) for such Warrant Shares. Each Warrant not exercised prior to the Expiration Date shall become void and all rights thereunder and all rights in respect thereof under this Agreement shall cease as of such time. No adjustments as to dividends will be made upon exercise of the Warrants. The price per share at which Warrant Shares shall be purchasable upon exercise of Warrants (the "Exercise Price") regardless of the Exercise Rate (as -------------- defined) then in effect, shall be equal to $0.01. A Warrant may be exercised upon surrender at the office or agency of the Company maintained for such purpose, which initially will be at the principal office of the Company, of the Warrant Certificate or Certificates evidencing the Warrants to be exercised with the form of election to purchase on the reverse thereof (the "Election to ----------- Exercise") duly filled in and signed, which signature shall be guaranteed by a -------- participant in a recognized Signature Guarantee Medallion Program. The "Exercise Date" for a Warrant shall be the date when all of the ------------- items referred to in the immediately preceding sentence are received by the Warrant Agent at or prior to 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on a Business Day and the exercise of the Warrants will be effective as of such Exercise Date. If any items referred to in such sentence are received after 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on a Business Day, the exercise of the Warrants to which such item relates will be effective on the next succeeding Business Day. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of an exercise of Warrants on the Expiration Date, if all of the items referred to in such sentence are received by the Warrant Agent at or prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Expiration Date, the exercise of the Warrants to which such items relate will be effective on the Expiration Date. The Exercise Price may be paid only by the surrender of one or more Warrant Certificates (and without the payment of the Exercise Price in cash) in exchange for a number of Warrant Shares equal to the product of (a) the number of Warrant Shares for which such Warrant is exercisable as of the Exercise Date (if the Exercise Price were being paid in cash), and (b) the Cashless Exercise Ratio. The "Cashless Exercise Ratio" shall equal a fraction, the numerator of ----------------------- which is the excess of the Current Market Value per Warrant Share on the Exercise Date over the Exercise Price per Warrant Share as of the Exercise Date and the denominator of which is the Current Market Value per Warrant Share on the Exercise Date. Upon surrender of a Warrant Certificate representing more than one Warrant in connection with the holder's option to exercise, the number of Warrant Shares deliverable upon exercise shall be equal to the product of the number of Warrant Shares issuable in respect of those Warrants that the holder specifies are to be exercised pursuant to a Cashless Exercise multiplied by the Cashless Exercise Ratio. All provisions of this Agreement shall be -13- applicable with respect to a surrender of a Warrant Certificate for less than the full number of Warrants represented thereby. "Current Market Value" per share of any class of Common Stock of the -------------------- Company at any date shall mean: (1) if no class of Common Stock is then registered under the Exchange Act and traded on a national securities exchange or on the Nasdaq National Market System, (a) the value of such class of Common Stock, determined in good faith by the board of directors of the Company and certified in a board resolution, taking into account the most recently completed arm's-length transaction between the Company and a Person other than an Affiliate of the Company and the closing of which occurs on such date or shall have occurred within the six-month period preceding such date, or (b) if no such transaction shall have occurred on such date or within such six-month period, the fair market value of the security as determined by a nationally recognized Independent Financial Expert; provided that, in the case of the calculation of Current Market Value -------- for determining the cash value of fractional shares, any such determination within six months that is, in the good faith judgment of the board of directors, a reasonable determination of value may be utilized, or (2) (a) if any class of Common Stock is then registered under the Exchange Act and traded on a national securities exchange or on the Nasdaq National Market System, the average of the daily closing sales prices of such class of Common Stock for the 20 consecutive trading days immediately preceding such date, or (b) if such class of Common Stock has been registered under the Exchange Act and traded on a national securities exchange or on the Nasdaq National Market System for less than 20 consecutive trading days before such date, then the average of the daily closing sales prices for all of the trading days before such date for which closing sales prices are available, in the case of each of (2)(a) and (2)(b), as certified to the Warrant Agent by the Chief Executive Officer, the President, any Executive Vice President or the Chief Financial Officer of the Company. The closing sales price for each such trading day shall be the closing sales price, regular way, on such day or, if no sale takes place on such day, the average of the closing bid and asked prices on such day. The Current Market Value of the Class E Common Stock shall be deemed to be equal to the Current Market Value of the Class A Common Stock. -14- Subject to the provisions of Section 6 hereof, upon such surrender of Warrants, the Company shall issue and cause to be delivered with all reasonable dispatch to or upon the written order of the Holder and in such name or names as the Warrantholder may designate a certificate or certificates for the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of such Warrants. Such certificate or certificates shall be deemed to have been issued and any Person so designated to be named therein shall be deemed to have become a holder of record of such Warrant Shares as of the date of the surrender of such Warrants. At the election of the Company with the consent of the holder of record of the relevant Warrant Shares, Warrant Shares may initially be issued in global form (the "Global Shares"). Such Global Shares shall represent such of the outstanding -------------- Warrant Shares as shall be specified therein and each Global Share shall provide that it represents the aggregate amount of outstanding Warrant Shares from time to time endorsed thereon and that the aggregate amount of outstanding Warrant Shares represented thereby may from time to time be reduced or increased, as appropriate. Any endorsement of a Global Share to reflect any increase or decrease in the amount of outstanding Warrant Shares represented thereby shall be made by the registrar for the Warrant Shares and the Depositary (referred to below) in accordance with instructions given by the holder thereof. DTC shall (if possible) act as the Depositary with respect to the Global Shares until a successor shall be appointed by the Company and the registrar for the Warrant Shares. The Warrants shall be exercisable only in whole. In the event that a certificate evidencing Warrants is exercised in respect of fewer than all of the Warrants evidenced thereby at any time prior to the date of expiration of the Warrants, a new certificate evidencing the remaining Warrant or Warrants will be issued, and the Warrant Agent is irrevocably authorized to countersign and to deliver the required new Warrant Certificate or Certificates pursuant to this Agreement, and the Company, whenever required by the Warrant Agent, will promptly supply the Warrant Agent with Warrant Certificates duly executed on behalf of the Company for such purpose. All Warrant Certificates surrendered upon exercise of Warrants shall be canceled by the Warrant Agent. Such canceled Warrant Certificates shall then be disposed of by the Warrant Agent in a manner consistent with the Warrant Agent's customary procedure for such disposal and in a manner reasonably satisfactory to the Company. The Warrant Agent shall account promptly to the Company with respect to Warrants exercised. The Warrant Agent shall keep copies of this Agreement and any notices given or received hereunder available for inspection by the Holders during normal business hours at its office. The Company shall supply the Warrant Agent from time to time with such numbers of copies of this Agreement as the Warrant Agent may request. SECTION 8. Payment of Taxes. The Company will pay all documentary ---------------- stamp taxes attributable to the initial issuance of Warrant Shares upon the exercise of Warrants; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required -------- ------- to pay any tax or taxes -15- which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issue of any Warrant Certificates or any certificates for Warrant Shares in a name other than that of the registered holder of a Warrant Certificate surrendered upon the exercise of a Warrant, and the Company shall not be required to issue or deliver such Warrant Certificates unless or until the Person or Persons requesting the issuance thereof shall have paid to the Company the amount of such tax or shall have established to the satisfaction of the Company that such tax has been paid. SECTION 9. Mutilated or Missing Warrant Certificates. In case any ----------------------------------------- of the Warrant Certificates shall be mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, the Company may at its discretion issue and the Warrant Agent may countersign, in exchange and substitution for and upon cancellation of the mutilated Warrant Certificate, or in lieu of and substitution for the Warrant Certificate lost, stolen or destroyed, a new Warrant Certificate of like tenor and representing an equivalent number of Warrants, but only upon receipt of evidence satisfactory to the Company and the Warrant Agent of such loss, theft or destruction of such Warrant Certificate and indemnity also satisfactory to them. SECTION 10. Reservation of Warrant Shares. The Company will at all ----------------------------- times reserve and keep available, free from preemptive rights, out of the aggregate of its authorized but unissued Class E Common Stock or its authorized and issued Class E Common Stock held in its treasury, for the purpose of enabling it to satisfy its obligation to issue Warrant Shares upon exercise of Warrants, the maximum number of shares of Class E Common Stock which may then be deliverable upon the exercise of all outstanding Warrants. The Company will at all times reserve and keep available, free from preemptive rights, out of the aggregate of its authorized but unissued Class A Common Stock or its authorized and issued Class A Common Stock held in its treasury, for the purpose of enabling it to satisfy its obligation to issue shares of Class A Common Stock upon conversion of all shares of Class E Common Stock issuable upon exercise of all Warrants, the maximum number of shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon conversion of all shares of Class E Common Stock issuable upon exercise of all Warrants. The Company or, if appointed, the transfer agent for the Class A Common Stock and the Class E Common Stock (the "Transfer Agent") and every -------------- subsequent transfer agent for any shares of the Company's Capital Stock issuable upon the exercise of any of the rights of purchase aforesaid will be irrevocably authorized and directed at all times to reserve such number of authorized shares as shall be required for such purpose. The Company will keep a copy of this Agreement on file with the Transfer Agent and with every subsequent transfer agent for any shares of the Company's Capital Stock issuable upon the exercise of the rights of purchase represented by the Warrants. The Warrant Agent is hereby irrevocably authorized to requisition from time to time from such Transfer Agent the stock certificates required to honor outstanding Warrants upon exercise thereof in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. The Company will supply such Transfer Agent with duly executed certificates for such purposes and will provide or otherwise make available any cash which -16- may be payable as provided in Section 13. The Company will furnish such Transfer Agent a copy of all notices of adjustments and certificates related thereto transmitted to each holder pursuant to Section 14 hereof. The Company covenants that all Warrant Shares which may be issued upon exercise of Warrants made in accordance with the terms of this Agreement will, upon issuance, be validly authorized and issued, fully paid, nonassessable, free of preemptive rights and free from all taxes, liens, charges and security interests with respect to the issuance thereof. The Company covenants that all shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon conversion of all shares of Class E Common Stock issuable upon exercise of all Warrants in accordance with this Agreement will, upon issuance, be validly authorized and issued, fully paid, nonassessable, free of preemptive rights and free from all taxes, liens, charges and security interests with respect to the issuance thereof. The Company will take no action to increase the par value of the Class E Common Stock to an amount in excess of the Exercise Price, and the Company will not enter into any agreements inconsistent with the rights of Holders hereunder. The Company will use its reasonable best efforts to obtain all such authorizations, exemptions or consents from any public regulatory body having jurisdiction thereof as may be necessary to enable the Company to perform its obligations under this Agreement. SECTION 11. Obtaining Stock Exchange Listings. The Company will --------------------------------- from time to time take all action which may be necessary so that the Warrant Shares, immediately upon their issuance upon the exercise of Warrants, will be listed on the principal securities exchanges and markets within the United States of America (including the Nasdaq National Market System), if any, on which the Class A Common Stock or the Class E Common Stock is then listed. In the event that, at any time during the period in which the Warrants are exercisable, the Class E Common Stock is not listed on any principal securities exchanges or markets within the United States of America, the Company will use its best efforts to permit the Warrant Shares to be designated Portal securities in accordance with the rules and regulations adopted by the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. relating to trading in The Portal Market. SECTION 12. Adjustment of Number of Warrant Shares Issuable. The ----------------------------------------------- number of shares of Class E Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of each Warrant (the "Exercise Rate") is subject to adjustment from time to time upon ------------- the occurrence of the events enumerated in this Section 12. The Exercise Rate shall initially be 1.889155. (a) Adjustment for Change in Capital Stock. If, after the Issue -------------------------------------- Date, the Company: (i) pays a dividend or makes a distribution on shares of any class of its Common Stock payable in shares of its Common Stock or other Capital Stock of the Company (except to the extent any such dividend results in the grant, issuance, sale or -17- making of Distribution Rights or Distributions to holders of Warrants pursuant to Section 12(c)); (ii) subdivides or splits any of its outstanding shares of any class of Common Stock into a greater number of shares; (iii) combines any of its outstanding shares of any class of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares; or (iv) issues by reclassification of any class of its Common Stock any shares of any of its Capital Stock; then the Exercise Rate in effect immediately prior to such action for each Warrant then outstanding shall be adjusted by multiplying the Exercise Rate in effect immediately prior to such action by a fraction (A) the numerator of which shall be the number of shares of all classes of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such action and (B) the denominator of which shall be the number of shares of all classes of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such action or the record date applicable to such action, if any (regardless of whether the Warrants then outstanding are then exercisable). The adjustment shall become effective immediately after the record date in the case of a dividend or distribution and immediately after the effective date in the case of a subdivision, combination or reclassification. In the event that such dividend or distribution is not so paid or made or such subdivision, combination or reclassification is not effected, the Exercise Rate shall again be adjusted to be the Exercise Rate which would then be in effect if such record date or effective date had not been so fixed. If after an adjustment a holder of a Warrant upon exercise of such Warrant may receive shares of two or more classes of Capital Stock of the Company, the Exercise Rate shall thereafter be subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of an action taken with respect to any such class of Capital Stock as is contemplated by this Section 12 with respect to the Common Stock, on terms comparable to those applicable to Common Stock in this Section 12. (b) Adjustment for Certain Sales of Common Stock Below Current Market ----------------------------------------------------------------- Value. If, after the Issue Date, the Company (i) grants or sells to any ----- Affiliate of the Company (other than a subsidiary of the Company) or (ii) grants, sells or offers to grant or sell to all holders of any class of Common Stock, any shares of any class of Common Stock or any securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for any class of Common Stock (other than (1) pursuant to the exercise of the Warrants, (2) pursuant to any security convertible into, or exchangeable or exercisable for, shares of Common Stock outstanding as of the Issue Date, (3) upon the conversion, exchange or exercise of any convertible, exchangeable or exercisable security as to which upon the issuance thereof an adjustment pursuant to this Section 12 has been made or (4) upon the conversion, exchange or exercise of -18- convertible, exchangeable or exercisable securities of the Company outstanding on the Issue Date (to the extent in accordance with the terms of such securities as in effect on such date), including any DB Capital Warrants) at a price below the then Current Market Value, the Exercise Rate for each Warrant then outstanding shall be adjusted in accordance with the formula: E/1/ = E x (O+N) --------------- (O + (N x P/M)) where: E/1/ = the adjusted Exercise Rate for each Warrant then outstanding; E = the then current Exercise Rate for each Warrant then outstanding; O = the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock of all classes outstanding immediately prior to the sale of such Common Stock or issuance of securities convertible, exchangeable or exercisable for Common Stock; N = the number of shares of Common Stock of any class so sold or the maximum stated number of shares of Common Stock of any class issuable upon the conversion, exchange or exercise of any such convertible, exchangeable or exercisable securities, as the case may be; P = the proceeds per share of Common Stock of the relevant class received by the Company, which (i) in the case of shares of Common Stock of any class is the amount received by the Company in consideration for the sale and issuance of such shares; and (ii) in the case of securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for shares of Common Stock of any class is the amount received by the Company in consideration for the sale and issuance of such convertible or exchangeable or exercisable securities, plus the minimum aggregate amount of additional consideration, other than the surrender of such convertible or exchangeable securities, payable to the Company upon exercise, conversion or exchange thereof; and M = the Current Market Value as of the Time of Determination or at the time of sale, as the case may be, of a share of Common Stock of the relevant class. The adjustment shall become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of shareholders entitled to receive the rights, warrants or options to which this paragraph (b) applies or upon consummation of the sale of Common Stock, as the case -19- may be. To the extent that shares of Common Stock are not delivered after the expiration of such rights, warrants or options, the Exercise Rate for each Warrant then outstanding shall be readjusted to the Exercise Rate which would otherwise be in effect had the adjustment made upon the issuance of such rights, warrants or options been made on the basis of delivery of only the number of shares of Common Stock actually delivered. In the event that such rights or warrants are not so issued, the Exercise Rate for each Warrant then outstanding shall again be adjusted to be the Exercise Rate which would then be in effect if such date fixed for determination of shareholders entitled to receive such rights, warrants or options had not been so fixed. No adjustment shall be made under this paragraph (b) if the application of the formula stated above in this paragraph (a) would result in a value of E/1/ that is lower than the value of E. No adjustment shall be made under this paragraph (b) for any adjustment which is the subject of paragraphs (a) and (d) of this Section 12. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no adjustment in the Exercise Rate will be required in respect of: (a) the grant of any stock option or other stock incentive award pursuant to any stock option or stock incentive plan or arrangement as disclosed in the Offering Memorandum dated May 5, 2000 relating to the Units, (b) the grant of any stock option or stock incentive award at an exercise price at least equal to the lesser of $25.25 per share (other than in the case of Class D Common Stock) or the then Current Market Value, (c) the grant of any other stock option or stock incentive award to any officer, director or employee of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries pursuant to any compensatory plan or arrangement that has been approved by the Company's Board of Directors, or (d) the exercise of any such option or award. (c) Adjustment upon Certain Distributions. ------------------------------------- (i) If at any time after the Issue Date the Company grants, issues or sells options, any Convertible Security, or rights to purchase Capital Stock or other securities (other than Common Stock) pro rata to the record holders of any --- ---- class or series of Common Stock ("Distribution Rights") or, without duplication, ------------------- makes any distribution (other than a distribution pursuant to a plan of liquidation) (a "Distribution") on shares of any class of Common Stock (whether ------------ in cash, property, evidences of indebtedness, or otherwise), then the Exercise Rate shall be adjusted in accordance with the formula: E/1/ = E x (M/(M-F)) where: -20- E/1/ = the adjusted Exercise Rate; E = the current Exercise Rate for each Warrant; M = the Current Market Value per Warrant Share at the Time of Determination; F = the fair market value at the Time of Determination of such portion of the options, Convertible Securities, Capital Stock or other securities, cash, property or assets distributable pursuant to such Distribution Rights or Distribution per share of outstanding Common Stock. The adjustment shall become effective immediately after the Time of Determination with respect to the shareholders entitled to receive the options, Convertible Securities, warrants, cash, property, evidences of indebtedness or other securities or assets to which this paragraph (c)(i) applies. No adjustment shall be made under this paragraph (c) if the application of the formula stated above in this paragraph (c)(i) would result in a value of E1 that is lower than the value of E. This paragraph (c)(i) does not apply to any securities which result in an adjustment pursuant to paragraphs (a) or (b) of this Section 12. (ii) Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraph (c)(i) of this Section 12, an event which would otherwise give rise to an adjustment pursuant to Section 12(c)(i) shall not give rise to such adjustment if the Company grants, issues or sells Distribution Rights to the Holders of Warrants or includes the holders of the Warrants in such Distribution, in each case on a pro --- rata basis, assuming for the purpose of this Section 12(c)(ii) that (x) all ---- outstanding shares of Common Stock are of one class and (y) the Warrants had been exercised. (iii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Section 12(c), if, at any time, the Company makes any distribution pursuant to any plan of liquidation (a "Liquidating Distribution") on shares of Class A ------------------------ Common Stock or Class E Common Stock (whether in cash, property, evidences of indebtedness or otherwise), then, subject to applicable law, the Company shall make to each Holder of Warrants the aggregate Liquidating Distribution which such Holder would have acquired if such Holder had held the maximum number of shares of Class E Common Stock acquirable upon the complete exercise of each Holder's Warrants (regardless of whether the Warrants are then exercisable) immediately before the Time of Determination of shareholders entitled to receive Liquidating Distributions; provided that any Holder of Warrants may elect to -------- receive Liquidating Distributions on the basis that such Holder held the maximum number of shares of Class A Common Stock into which the shares of Class E Common Stock described in this sentence could be converted (without reference to any required holding period) immediately before the Time of Determination of shareholders entitled to receive Liquidating Distributions. -21- (d) Notice of Adjustment. Whenever the Exercise Rate is adjusted, -------------------- the Company shall promptly mail to holders of Warrants then outstanding at the addresses appearing on the Warrant Register a notice of the adjustment. The Company shall file with the Warrant Agent and any other Registrar such notice and a certificate from the Company's independent public accountants briefly stating the facts requiring the adjustment and the manner of computing it. The certificate shall be conclusive evidence that the adjustment is correct, absent manifest error. Neither the Warrant Agent nor any such Registrar shall be under any duty or responsibility with respect to any such certificate except to exhibit the same during normal business hours to any holder desiring inspection thereof. (e) Reorganization of Company; Fundamental Transaction. -------------------------------------------------- (i) If the Company, in a single transaction or through a series of related transactions, consolidates with or merges with or into any other person or sells, assigns, transfers, leases, conveys or otherwise disposes of all or substantially all of its properties and assets to another person or group of affiliated persons or is a party to a merger or binding share exchange which reclassifies or changes its outstanding Common Stock (a "Fundamental ----------- Transaction"), as a condition to consummating any such transaction the person ----------- formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger if other than the Company or the person to whom such transfer has been made (the "Surviving --------- Person") shall enter into a supplemental warrant agreement. The supplemental ------ warrant agreement shall provide (a) that the holder of a Warrant then outstanding may exercise the Warrant for the kind and amount of securities, cash or other assets which such holder would have received immediately after the Fundamental Transaction if such holder had exercised the Warrant and, if such Warrant is then exercisable into shares of a class of Common Stock (such as Class E Common Stock as constituted on the Issue Date) that is convertible into shares of another class of Common Stock (such as Class A Common Stock as constituted on the Issue Date) if such holder had converted such Warrant Shares into such other class of Common Stock, in each case immediately before the effective date of the transaction (whether or not the Warrants were then exercisable), it being understood that the Warrants will remain exercisable only in accordance with their terms so that conditions to exercise will remain applicable, such as surrender of the Warrant Certificate, assuming (to the extent applicable) that such holder (i) was not a constituent person or an affiliate of a constituent person to such transaction, (ii) made no election with respect thereto, and (iii) was treated alike with the plurality of non- electing holders, and (b) that the Surviving Person shall succeed to and be substituted to every right and obligation of the Company in respect of this Agreement and the Warrants. The supplemental warrant agreement shall provide for adjustments which shall be as nearly equivalent as may be practicable to the adjustments provided for in this Section 12. The Surviving Person shall mail to holders of Warrants at the addresses appearing on the Warrant Register a notice briefly describing the supplemental warrant agreement. If the issuer of securities deliverable upon exercise of Warrants is an affiliate of the Surviving Person, that issuer shall join in the supplemental warrant agreement. -22- (ii) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company enters into a Fundamental Transaction with another Person (other than a subsidiary of the Company) and consideration is payable to holders of shares of Capital Stock (or other securities or property) issuable or deliverable upon exercise of the Warrants that are exercisable in exchange for such shares in connection with such Fundamental Transaction which consideration consists solely of cash (assuming (to the extent applicable) that each such holder (i) was not a constituent person or an affiliate of a constituent person to such transaction, (ii) made no election with respect thereto, and (iii) was treated alike with the plurality of non-electing holders), then the holders of Warrants shall be entitled to receive distributions on the date of such event on an equal basis with holders of such shares (or other securities issuable upon exercise of the Warrants) as if the Warrants had been exercised immediately prior to such event, less the aggregate Exercise Price therefor. Upon receipt of such payment, if any, the rights of a holder of such Warrant shall terminate and cease and such holder's Warrants shall expire. (iii) If this paragraph (e) applies, it shall supersede the application of paragraph (a) of this Section 12. (f) Other Events. If any event occurs as to which the provisions of ------------ this Section 12 are not strictly applicable or, if strictly applicable, would not, in the good faith judgment of the Board of Directors of the Company, fairly and adequately protect the rights of the Warrantholders in accordance with the essential intent and principles of such provisions, then such Board of Directors shall make such adjustments in the application of such provisions, in accordance with such essential intent and principles, as shall be reasonably necessary, in the good faith opinion of such Board of Directors, to protect such rights as aforesaid, but in no event shall any such adjustment have the effect of decreasing the Exercise Rate or decreasing the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants. (g) Company Determination Final. Any determination that the Company --------------------------- or the board of directors of the Company must make pursuant to this Section 12 shall be conclusive, absent manifest error. (h) Warrant Agent's Adjustment Disclaimer. The Warrant Agent shall ------------------------------------- have no duty to determine when an adjustment under this Section 12 should be made, how it should be made or what it should be. The Warrant Agent shall have no duty to determine whether a supplemental warrant agreement under paragraph (e) need be entered into or whether any provisions of any supplemental warrant agreement are correct. The Warrant Agent shall not be accountable for and makes no representation as to the validity or value of any securities or assets issued upon exercise of Warrants. The Warrant Agent shall not be responsible for the Company's failure to comply with this Section 12. (i) Specificity of Adjustment. Regardless of any adjustment in the ------------------------- number or kind of shares purchasable upon the exercise of the Warrants, Warrant Certificates theretofore -23- or thereafter issued may continue to express the same number and kind of Warrant Shares per Warrant as are stated on the Warrant Certificates initially issuable pursuant to this Agreement. (j) Voluntary Adjustment. The Company from time to time may -------------------- increase the Exercise Rate by any number and for any period of time; provided -------- that such period is not less than 20 Business Days. Whenever the Exercise Rate is so increased, the Company shall mail to holders at the addresses appearing on the Warrant Register and file with the Warrant Agent a notice of the increase. The Company shall give the notice at least 15 days before the date the increased Exercise Rate takes effect. The notice shall state the increased Exercise Rate and the period it will be in effect. A voluntary increase in the Exercise Rate shall not change or adjust the Exercise Rate otherwise in effect as determined by this Section 12. (k) Multiple Adjustments. After an adjustment to the Exercise Rate -------------------- for outstanding Warrants under this Section 12, any subsequent event requiring an adjustment under this Section 12 shall cause an adjustment to the Exercise Rate for outstanding Warrants as so adjusted. (l) When De Minimis Adjustment May Be Deferred. No adjustment in ------------------------------------------ the Exercise Rate shall be required unless such adjustment would require an increase or decrease of at least 1% in such rate; provided, however, that any -------- ------- adjustments which by reason of the foregoing are not required to be made shall be carried forward and taken into account in any subsequent adjustment. All calculations shall be made by the Issuer and shall be rounded to the sixth decimal place. No adjustment need be made for a change in the par value or no par value of the Class A Common Stock or Class E Common Stock and no adjustment shall be deferred beyond the date on which a Warrant is exercised. (m) Tag-Along Transfers. ------------------- (i) If the Company receives any Transfer Notice by a holder of Class D Common Stock in respect of a proposed Tag-Along Transfer, as contemplated by Article IV, Section 4 of the Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation of the Company (the "Articles"), the Company shall promptly provide a copy of such -------- notice to each Holder of a Warrant. (ii) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, upon a Tag-Along Transfer of a number of shares of Class D Common Stock equal to or greater than 80% of the outstanding shares of Class D Common Stock, then to the extent the Warrants shall not have been exercised or the holder of the Warrant Shares issued upon such exercise shall not have given a Tag-Along Notice in each case on or before the Tag-Along Acceptance Date, such Warrants shall be subject to redemption pursuant to Article IV, Section 5 of the Articles and the Holders thereof shall be entitled to receive the Tag-Along Redemption Price (reduced by the aggregate Exercise Price payable by such Holders), in each case as if such Warrants had been exercised immediately prior to the Tag-Along Acceptance Date. Upon receipt of such -24- payment, if any, the rights of a holder of such Warrant shall terminate and cease and such holder's Warrants shall expire. (iii) Capitalized terms not otherwise defined in this Section 12(m) have the meanings set forth in the Articles. (n) Amendments of the Articles of Incorporation. The Company shall ------------------------------------------- not amend Section 4, Section 5, Section 6(b) or Section 8 of Article IV of its Articles of Incorporation in a manner that adversely affects the holders of Warrants, without the prior consent of the holders of a majority of the Warrants outstanding (excluding Warrants held by the Company or any of its Affiliates). SECTION 13. Fractional Interests. The Company shall not be -------------------- required to issue fractional Warrant Shares on the exercise of Warrants. If more than one Warrant shall be presented for exercise in full at the same time by the same holder, the number of full Warrant Shares which shall be issuable upon the exercise thereof shall be computed on the basis of the aggregate number of Warrant Shares purchasable on exercise of the Warrants so presented. If any fraction of a Warrant Share would, except for the provisions of this Section 13, be issuable on the exercise of any Warrants (or specified portion thereof), the Company shall pay an amount in cash equal to the Current Market Value per Warrant Share on the day immediately preceding the date the Warrant is presented for exercise, multiplied by such fraction. SECTION 14. Notice of Certain Distributions; Certain Rights. The ----------------------------------------------- Company shall give prompt written notice to the Warrant Agent and shall cause the Warrant Agent, on behalf of and at the expense of the Company to give to each Holder written notice of any determination to make a distribution to the holders of its Common Stock of any cash dividends, assets, debt securities, preferred stock, or any rights or warrants to purchase debt securities, preferred stock, assets or other securities (other than Common Stock, or rights, options, or warrants to purchase Common Stock) of the Company, which notice shall state the nature and amount of such planned dividend or distribution and the record date therefor, and shall be received by the Holders at least 20 days prior to such record date therefor. Except as expressly provided in this Agreement or in any Warrant Certificate, the Holders shall have no right to vote, to consent, to exercise any preemptive rights or to receive notice as shareholders in respect of the meetings of shareholders or the election of directors of the Company or any other matter, or any rights whatsoever as shareholders of the Company. SECTION 15. Notices to the Company and Warrant Agent. Any notice ---------------------------------------- or demand authorized by this Agreement to be given or made by the Warrant Agent or by any Holder to or on the Company shall be sufficiently given or made when received at the office of the Company expressly designated by the Company as its office for purposes of this -25- Agreement (until the Warrant Agent is otherwise notified in accordance with this Section 15 by the Company), as follows: Jostens Inc. copies to: 5501 Norman Center Drive Gibson, Dunn & Crutcher, LLP Minneapolis, Minnesota 55437 200 Park Avenue Attn: General Counsel 47th Floor New York, NY 10166 Attn: Joerg H. Esdorn Any notice pursuant to this Agreement to be given by the Company or by any Holder(s) to the Warrant Agent shall be sufficiently given when received by the Warrant Agent at the address appearing below (until the Company is otherwise notified in accordance with this Section by the Warrant Agent). The Bank of New York 101 Barclay Street, 21W New York, NY 10286 Attn: Corporate Trust Trustee Administration Any notice or communication to a holder shall be mailed by first class mail, postage prepaid, to its address shown on the register kept by Warrant Agent. SECTION 16. Supplements and Amendments. (a) The Company and the -------------------------- Warrant Agent may from time to time supplement or amend this Agreement without the approval of any holders of Warrants in order to cure any ambiguity or to correct or supplement any provision contained herein which may be defective or inconsistent with any other provision herein, or to make any other provisions in regard to matters or questions arising hereunder which the Company may deem necessary or desirable and which shall not in any way adversely affect the interests of any holder of Warrants as evidenced by an opinion of counsel, which may be in-house counsel, delivered to the Warrant Agent. (b) No other amendment or modifications of any provision of this Agreement or the Warrant Certificates or consent to any departure by the Company therefrom, shall in any event be effective without written consent of the Holders of a majority of the Warrants, excluding Warrants held by the Company or any of its Affiliates. The consent of each Holder of Warrants affected shall be required for any amendment pursuant to which the Exercise Price would be increased or the Exercise Rate would be decreased (other than pursuant to adjustments provided in this Agreement) or any of the adjustment provisions in this Agreement would be changed in a manner that would have any such effect. -26- After an amendment or modification under this Section 16 becomes effective, the Company shall mail to the Holders affected thereby a notice briefly describing such amendment or modification. Any failure of the Company to mail such notice, or any defect therein, shall not, however, in any way impair or affect the validity of any such amendment or modification. In connection with any amendment or modification under this Section 16, the Company may offer, but shall not be obligated to offer, to any Holder who consents to such amendment or modification, consideration for such Holder's consent, so long as such consideration is offered to all Holders. (c) Executed or true and correct copies of any amendment or modification effected pursuant to the provisions of this Section 16 shall be delivered by the Company to each Holder of outstanding Warrants or Warrant Shares forthwith following the date on which the same shall have been executed and delivered by the Holder or Holders of the requisite percentage of outstanding Warrant Shares (but only to the extent the Company has been provided with the addresses for the Holders). SECTION 17. Concerning the Warrant Agent. The Warrant Agent ---------------------------- undertakes the duties and obligations imposed by this Agreement upon the following terms and conditions, by all of which the Company and the Holders, by their acceptance of Warrants, shall be bound: (a) The statements contained herein and in the Warrant Certificate shall be taken as statements of the Company, and the Warrant Agent assumes no responsibility for the correctness of any of the same except such as describe the Warrant Agent or any action taken by it. The Warrant Agent assumes no responsibility with respect to the distribution of the Warrants except as herein otherwise provided. (b) The Warrant Agent shall be protected and shall not be responsible for and shall incur no liability to the Company or any Holder for any failure of the Company to comply with the covenants contained in this Agreement or in the Warrants to be complied with by the Company. (c) The Warrant Agent may execute and exercise any of the rights or powers hereby vested in it or perform any duty hereunder either itself (through its employees) or by or through its attorneys or agents (which shall not include its employees) and shall not be responsible for the misconduct of any attorney or agent appointed with due care. (d) The Warrant Agent may consult at any time with legal counsel satisfactory to it (who may be counsel for the Company), and the Warrant Agent shall incur no liability or responsibility to the Company or to any holder in respect of any action taken, suffered or -27- omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in accordance with the opinion or the advice of such counsel. (e) Whenever in the performance of its duties under this Agreement the Warrant Agent shall deem it necessary or desirable that any fact or matter be proved or established by the Company prior to taking or suffering any action hereunder, such fact or matter (unless such evidence in respect thereof be herein specifically prescribed) may be deemed conclusively to be proved and established by a certificate signed by the Chairman of the Board, the President, one of the Vice Presidents, the Treasurer or the Secretary of the Company and delivered to the Warrant Agent; and such certificate shall be full authorization to the Warrant Agent for any action taken or suffered in good faith by it under the provisions of this Agreement in reliance upon such certificate. (f) The Company agrees to pay the Warrant Agent such compensation for all services rendered by the Warrant Agent in the performance of its duties under this Agreement as may be separately agreed in writing, to reimburse the Warrant Agent for all expenses, taxes and governmental charges and other charges of any kind and nature incurred by the Warrant Agent in the performance of its duties under this Agreement (including, without limitation, reasonable fees and expenses of counsel), and to indemnify the Warrant Agent and its agents, employees, directors, officers and affiliates and save it and them harmless against any and all liabilities, losses and expenses, including, without limitation, judgments, costs and counsel fees, for anything done or omitted by the Warrant Agent in the acceptance and performance of its duties under this Agreement, except as a result of the Warrant Agent's gross negligence or bad faith, including, without limitation, the costs and expenses of defending against any claim (whether asserted by the Company, a Holder or any other Person) of liability in the premises including reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses. The provisions of this paragraph shall survive the resignation or removal of the Warrant Agent and the termination of this Agreement. (g) The Warrant Agent shall be under no obligation to institute any action, suit or legal proceeding or to take any other action likely to involve expense unless the Company or one or more holders shall furnish the Warrant Agent with reasonable security and indemnity for any costs and expenses which may be incurred, but this provision shall not affect the power of the Warrant Agent to take such action as the Warrant Agent may consider proper, whether with or without any such security or indemnity. All rights of action under this Agreement or under any of the Warrants may be enforced by the Warrant Agent without the possession of any of the Warrants or the production thereof at any trial or other proceeding relative thereto, and any such action, suit or proceeding instituted by the Warrant Agent shall be brought in its name as Warrant Agent, and any recovery of judgment shall be for the ratable benefit of the holders, as their respective rights or interests may appear. -28- (h) The Warrant Agent and any stockholder, director, officer or employee ("Related Parties") of the Warrant Agent may buy, sell or deal in any --------------- of the Warrants or other securities of the Company or become pecuniarily interested in any transactions in which the Company may be interested, or contract with or lend money to the Company or otherwise act as fully and freely as though it were not Warrant Agent under this Agreement or such director, officer or employee. Nothing herein shall preclude the Warrant Agent or any Related Party from acting in any other capacity for the Company or for any other legal entity including, without limitation, acting as Transfer Agent or as a lender to the Company or an affiliate thereof. (i) The Warrant Agent shall act hereunder solely as agent, and its duties shall be determined solely by the provisions thereof. The Warrant Agent shall not be liable for anything which it may do or refrain from doing in connection with this Agreement except for its own negligence or bad faith. No implied duties or obligations shall be read into this Agreement against the Warrant Agent. (j) The Warrant Agent will be protected and will not incur any liability or responsibility to the Company or to any holder for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it in reliance on any notice, resolution, waiver, consent, order, certificate, or other paper, document or instrument reasonably believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or presented by the proper party or parties. (k) The Warrant Agent is hereby authorized and directed to accept instructions with respect to the performance of its duties hereunder from the Chairman of the Board, the President, Treasurer any Vice President or the Secretary of the Company, and to apply to such officers for advice or instructions in connection with its duties, and shall not be liable for any action taken or suffered to be taken by it in good faith and without negligence in accordance with instructions of any such officer or officers. (l) By countersigning Warrant Certificates or by any other act hereunder the Warrant Agent shall not be deemed to make any representations as to validity or authorization of the Warrants or the Warrant Certificates (except as to its countersignature thereon) or of any securities or other property delivered upon exercise or tender of any Warrant, or as to the accuracy of the computation of the Exercise Price or the number or kind or amount of stock or other securities or other property deliverable upon exercise of any Warrant or the correctness of the representations of the Company made in any certifications that the Warrant Agent receives. The Warrant Agent shall not have any duty to calculate or determine any adjustments with respect either to the Exercise Price or the kind and amount of shares or other securities or any property receivable by holders of Warrants upon the exercise or tender of Warrants required from time to time, and the Warrant Agent shall have no duty or responsibility in determining the accuracy or correctness of any such calculation. -29- (m) No provision of this Agreement shall require the Warrant Agent to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder or in the exercise of its rights if there shall be reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such funds or adequate indemnification against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it. SECTION 18. Change of Warrant Agent. The Warrant Agent may resign ----------------------- and be discharged from its duties under this Agreement by giving to the Company 30 days' notice in writing. The Warrant Agent may be removed by like notice to the Warrant Agent from the Company. If the Warrant Agent shall resign or be removed or shall otherwise become incapable of acting, the Company shall appoint a successor to the Warrant Agent. If the Company shall fail to make such appointment within a period of 30 days after such removal or after it has been notified in writing of such resignation or incapacity by the resigning or incapacitated Warrant Agent or by any holder (who shall with such notice submit his Warrant for inspection by the Company), then any holder or the resigning or removed Warrant Agent may apply to any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor to the Warrant Agent. Pending appointment of a successor to the Warrant Agent, either by the Company or by such court, the duties of the Warrant Agent shall be carried out by the Company. Any successor warrant agent, whether appointed by the Company or such a court, shall be a bank or trust company in good standing, incorporated under the laws of the United States of America or any State thereof or the District of Columbia and having at the time of its appointment as warrant agent a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000. After appointment, the successor warrant agent shall be vested with the same powers, rights, duties and responsibilities as if it had been originally named as Warrant Agent without further act or deed; but the former Warrant Agent shall deliver and transfer to the successor warrant agent any property at the time held by it hereunder, and execute and deliver any further assurance, conveyance, act or deed necessary for such purpose. Failure to file any notice provided for in this Section 18, however, or any defect therein, shall not affect the legality or validity of the resignation or removal of the Warrant Agent or the appointment of the successor warrant agent, as the case may be. In the event of such resignation or removal, the Company or the successor warrant agent shall mail by first class mail, postage prepaid, to each Holder, written notice of such removal or resignation and the name and address of such successor warrant agent. SECTION 19. Identity of Transfer Agent. Forthwith upon the -------------------------- appointment of any Transfer Agent for the Common Stock, or any other shares of the Company's Capital Stock issuable upon the exercise of the Warrants, the Company shall file with the Warrant Agent a statement setting forth the name and address of such Transfer Agent. SECTION 20. SEC Reports and Other Information. The Company shall --------------------------------- at all times provide the Warrant Agent and Holders of Warrants with such annual reports and such information, documents and other reports as are specified in Sections 13 and 15(d) of the -30- Exchange Act of documents and other reports to be so provided at the times specified for the filing of such information, documents and reports under such Sections of the Exchange Act. In addition, for so long as any Warrants remain outstanding, the Company will furnish to the Holders and to prospective investors, upon their request, the information required to be delivered pursuant to Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Securities Act, and, to beneficial holders of Warrants, if not obtainable from the SEC, information of the type that would be filed with the SEC pursuant to the foregoing provisions, upon the request of any such holder. Delivery of such reports, information and documents to the Warrant Agent is for informational purposes only and the Warrant Agent's receipt of such shall not constitute constructive notice of any information contained therein or determinable from information contained therein, including the Company's compliance with any of its covenants hereunder (as to which the Warrant Agent is entitled to rely exclusively on Officers' Certificates). SECTION 21. Successors. All the covenants and provisions of this ---------- Agreement by or for the benefit of the Company, the Warrant Agent or any holder of Warrants shall bind and inure to the benefit of their respective successors and assigns hereunder. SECTION 22. Termination. This Agreement shall terminate on the ----------- Expiration Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement will terminate on any earlier date if all Warrants have been exercised or redeemed pursuant to this Agreement or the Company's Articles of Incorporation. SECTION 23. Governing Law. This Agreement and each Warrant ------------- Certificate issued hereunder shall be deemed to be a contract made under the laws of the State of New York and shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of said State, without regard to the conflict of law rules thereof. SECTION 24. Benefits of This Agreement. Nothing in this Agreement -------------------------- shall be construed to give to any person or corporation other than the Company, the Warrant Agent and the registered holders of the Warrant Certificates any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under this Agreement; but this Agreement shall be for the sole and exclusive benefit of the Company, the Warrant Agent and the registered holders of the Warrant Certificates. SECTION 25. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any ------------ number of counterparts and each of such counterparts shall for all purposes be deemed to be an original, and all such counterparts shall together constitute but one and the same instrument. -31- IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Agreement to be duly executed, as of the day and year first above written. JOSTENS, INC. By: /s/ Robert C. Buhrmaster ------------------------ Name: Robert C. Buhrmaster Title: Chairman of the Board, President and Chief Executive Officer THE BANK OF NEW YORK, as Warrant Agent By: /s/ Terrence Rawlins ------------------------ Name: Terrence Rawlins Title: Asst. Vice President EXHIBIT A The Warrants represented by this certificate may be required to be exercised upon the demand of the Company, upon the occurrence of certain events specified in the amended and restated articles of incorporation of the Company. The Company will furnish without charge to each holder who so requests a copy of the amended and restated articles of incorporation of the Company. This security is subject to mandatory redemption by the Company. Such redemption can be accomplished without the certificates representing such security being surrendered and whether or not the Company gives notice of such redemption. The Company will furnish without charge to each securityholder who so requests a full statement of the designations, preferences, limitations and relative rights of each class of stock or series of stock of the Company authorized to be issued, so far as they have been determined, and the authority of the board of directors to determine the relative rights and preferences of subsequent classes or series. No. [ ] CLASS E COMMON STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT OF JOSTENS, INC. THIS CERTIFIES THAT [ ], or its registered assigns, is the registered holder of ______________ Warrants (the "Warrants"). Each Warrant entitles the holder thereof (the "Holder"), at its option at any ------ time on or after the Separability Date and subject to the provisions contained herein and in the Warrant Agreement referred to below, to purchase from Jostens, Inc., a Minnesota corporation (the "Company"), 1.889155 shares of Class E Common ------- Stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Company at an exercise price per share equal to $0.01 (the "Exercise Price"). -------------- This Warrant Certificate shall terminate and become void as of the close of business on May 1, 2010 (the "Expiration Date") or, if earlier, upon --------------- the exercise hereof as to all the shares of Class E Common Stock subject hereto. The number of shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as set forth in the Warrant Agreement (as defined). This Warrant Certificate is issued under and in accordance with a Warrant Agreement dated as of May 10, 2000 (the "Warrant Agreement"), between ----------------- the Company and The Bank of New York, as Warrant Agent, and is subject to the terms and provisions A-1 contained in the Warrant Agreement, to all of which terms and provisions the Holder of this Warrant Certificate consents by acceptance hereof. The Warrant Agreement is hereby incorporated herein by reference and made a part hereof. Reference is hereby made to the Warrant Agreement for a full statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and obligations of the Company and the Warrantholders. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed thereto in the Warrant Agreement. A copy of the Warrant Agreement may be obtained for inspection by the Holder hereof upon written request to the Company at 5501 Norman Center Drive, Minneapolis, Minnesota 55437, Attn: General Counsel. Subject to the terms of the Warrant Agreement, the Warrants may be exercised upon surrender at the office or agency of the Company maintained for such purpose, which initially will be the corporate trust office of the Warrant Agent in New York, New York, of the certificate or certificates evidencing the Warrants to be exercised with the form of election to purchase on the reverse thereof duly filled in and signed, and upon payment to the Warrant Agent for the account of the Company of the Exercise Price for the number of Warrant Shares in respect of which such Warrants are then exercised. The Exercise Price may be paid only by the surrender of one or more warrant certificates (and without the payment of the Exercise Price in cash) in exchange for such number of shares of Common Stock equal to the product of (a) the number of Warrant Shares for which such Warrant is exercisable as of the Exercise Date (if the Exercise Price were being paid in cash), and (b) the Cashless Exercise Ratio. The "Cashless Exercise Ratio" shall equal a fraction, the numerator of which is the excess of the Current Market Value per Warrant Share on the Exercise Date over the Exercise Price per share as of the Exercise Date and the denominator of which is the Current Market Value per Warrant Share on the Exercise Date. Upon surrender of a Warrant Certificate representing more than one Warrant in connection with the holder's option to elect a Cashless Exercise, the number of Warrant Shares deliverable upon a Cashless Exercise shall be equal to the product of the number of Warrant Shares issuable in respect of those Warrants that the holder specifies are to be exercised pursuant to a Cashless Exercise multiplied by the Cashless Exercise Ratio. All provisions of the Agreement shall be applicable with respect to a surrender of a Warrant Certificate for less than the full number of Warrants represented thereby. The Warrants shall be exercisable only in whole. In the event that a certificate evidencing Warrants is exercised in respect of fewer than all of the Warrants evidenced thereby at any time prior to the date of expiration of the Warrants, a new certificate evidencing the remaining Warrant or Warrants will be issued, and the Warrant Agent is irrevocably authorized to countersign and to deliver the required new Warrant Certificate or Certificates pursuant to the Warrant Agreement, and the Company, whenever required by the Warrant Agent, will promptly supply the Warrant Agent with Warrant Certificates duly executed on behalf of the Company for such purpose. A-2 This Warrant Certificate shall not be valid unless countersigned by the Warrant Agent as such term is used in the Warrant Agreement. As provided in the Warrant Agreement, the Exercise Rate is subject to adjustment upon the happening of certain events. The Company will pay all documentary stamp taxes attributable to the initial issuance of Warrant Shares upon the exercise of Warrants; provided, -------- however, that the Company shall not be required to pay any tax or taxes which ------- may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issue of any Warrant Certificates or any certificates for Warrant Shares in a name other than that of the registered holder of a Warrant Certificate surrendered upon the exercise of a Warrant, and the Company shall not be required to issue or deliver such Warrant Certificates unless or until the person or persons requesting the issuance thereof shall have paid to the Company the amount of such tax or shall have established to the satisfaction of the Company that such tax has been paid. The Company shall not be required to issue fractional Warrant Shares on the exercise of Warrants. If more than one Warrant shall be presented for exercise in full at the same time by the same holder, the number of full Warrant Shares which shall be issuable upon the exercise thereof shall be computed on the basis of the aggregate number of Warrant Shares purchasable on exercise of the Warrants so presented. If any fraction of a Warrant Share would be issuable on the exercise of any Warrants (or specified portion thereof), the Company shall pay an amount in cash equal to the Current Market Value per Warrant Share on the day immediately preceding the date the Warrant is presented for exercise, multiplied by such fraction. All Warrant Shares issuable by the Company upon the exercise of the Warrants shall, upon such issue, be duly and validly issued and fully paid and non-assessable. The Company and the Warrant Agent may deem and treat Holders of the Warrant Certificates as the absolute owners thereof (notwithstanding any notation of ownership or other writing thereon made by anyone) for all purposes, and neither the Company nor the Warrant Agent shall be affected by any notice to the contrary. A-3 The Warrants do not entitle any Holder hereof to any of the rights of a stockholder of the Company. JOSTENS, INC.

EXHIBIT B(1) [Private Placement Legend] -------------------------- Neither this security nor any security issuable upon the exercise hereof has been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), or the securities laws of any state or other jurisdiction. Neither such security nor any interest or participation herein or therein may be reoffered, sold, assigned, transferred, pledged, encumbered or otherwise disposed of in the absence of such registration or unless such transaction is exempt from, or not subject to, such registration.

(or such later date specified in the warrant agreement referred to below, the "Resale Restriction Termination Date") resell or otherwise transfer the warrant evidenced hereby, except pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act or in a transaction not requiring registration under the Securities Act (a) to Jostens, Inc. or any subsidiary thereof, (b) inside the United States to a qualified institutional buyer in compliance with Rule 144A under the Securities Act, (c) inside the United States to an accredited investor that, prior to such transfer, furnishes to The Bank of New York (or any successor, the "Warrant Agent") a signed letter containing certain representations and agreements relating to the restriction on transfer of the warrants evidenced hereby (the form of which letter can be obtained from Jostens, Inc. or the Warrant Agent), (d) outside the United States in compliance with Regulation S promulgated under the Securities Act, (e) pursuant to any other available exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act, including the exemption provided by Rule 144 under the Securities Act (if available), subject in each of the foregoing cases to any requirement of law that the disposition of the property of such holder be at all times within such holder's control and to compliance with any applicable state securities laws; and (3) agrees that it will deliver to each person to whom this warrant is transferred a notice substantially to the effect of this legend. In connection with any transfer of the warrant evidenced hereby prior to the restriction termination date, in the case of certain transfers pursuant to clause (2)(b), 2(c) or (2)(d), the holder must make certain certifications to the Warrant Agent to confirm that such transfers are being made pursuant an exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act. In addition, in the case of any transfer referred to in clause (2)(e) above, the holder must, prior to such transfer furnish to the Warrant Agent such certifications, legal opinions or other information as Jostens, Inc. or the Warrant Agent may reasonably require to confirm that such transfer is being made pursuant to an exemption from, or in a B-1-1 transaction not subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act. Hedging transactions involving this security or any security issuable upon exercise hereof may not be conducted unless in compliance with the Securities Act. B-1- EXHIBIT B(2) [Unit Legend] ------------- [Any Warrant issued on or after the Issue Date and prior to the Separability Date shall bear the legend set forth in the following paragraph:] The Warrants evidenced by this certificate are initially issued as part of an issuance of units, each of which consists of $1,000 principal amount of the 12 3/4% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2010 of Jostens, Inc. (the "Notes") and one warrant (each, a "Warrant" and collectively, the "Warrants"), each Warrant initially entitling the holder thereof to purchase 1.889155 shares of Class E Common Stock, $0.01 par value, of Jostens, Inc. (the "Class E Common Stock"). Prior to the Separability Date, the Warrants evidenced by this certificate may not be transferred or exchanged separately from, and may be transferred or exchange only together with, the Notes. B-2-1 EXHIBIT B(3) [GLOBAL WARRANT LEGEND] Any Global Warrant countersigned and delivered hereunder shall bear a legend in substantially the following form: This security is a Global Warrant within the meaning of the Warrant Agreement hereinafter referred to and is registered in the name of a depository or a successor depository. This security is not exchangeable for securities registered in the name of a person other than the depository or its nominee except in the limited circumstances described in the Warrant Agreement, and no transfer of this security (other than a transfer of this security as a whole by the depository to a nominee of the depository or by a nominee of the depository to the depository or another nominee of the depository) may be registered except in the limited circumstances described in the Warrant Agreement. Unless this certificate is presented by an authorized representative of The Depository Trust Company, a New York corporation ("DTC"), to the issuer or its agent for registration of --- transfer, exchange, or payment, and any certificate issued is registered in the name of Cede & Co. or in such other name as is requested by an authorized representative of DTC (and any payment is made to Cede & Co. or to such other entity as is requested by an authorized representative of DTC), any transfer, pledge or other use hereof for value or otherwise by or to any person is wrongful inasmuch as the registered owner hereof, Cede & Co., has an interest herein.
