on which the Investors, any of their respective affiliates and any Persons in a
13D Group (any partnership, limited partnership, syndicate or other "group" as
such term is used in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act) with such Persons
cease to beneficially own in the aggregate securities entitled to vote generally
in the election of directors, or securities convertible into or exercisable or
exchangeable for such securities ("Voting Securities") representing at least 10%
of the Voting Securities of the Company, (iii) the acquisition by any Person or
13D Group (other than the Investors and their respective affiliates or any
transferee thereof) of beneficial ownership of Voting Securities representing
the greater of 25% or the percentage of Voting Securities beneficially owned by
the Investors, their affiliates and any other Persons in a 13D Group with such
Persons minus 10%, (iv) the sale of substantially all of the Common Stock of the
Company or all or substantially all of the assets of the Company or its
subsidiaries, taken as a whole, through a stock purchase agreement, merger or
other business combination, (v) the occurrence of any of the following: (a) the
slate of directors actually nominated by the Board of Directors or any
committees thereof does not include such number of Investor Designees which,
when added to the number of continuing directors who are Investor Designees,
equals at least a simple majority of the Board of Directors, (b) any Investor
Designee is not elected as a director at any meeting of stockholders or by
written consent of the stockholders when such Investor Designee is nominated for
election, and sufficient Investor Designees are not added to the Board of
Directors such that Investor Designees thereafter constitute at least a simple
majority of the Board of Directors, or (c) any Investor Designee becomes unable
to serve for any reason during his or her term and is not replaced by an
Investor Designee at or before the earlier of the beginning of the next meeting
of the Board of Directors or any action to be taken by the Board of Directors by
written consent to occur after such event (each of (a), (b) and (c), a
"Post-Closing Event"), (vi) the occurrence of a Bankruptcy Event with respect to
the Company or any of its subsidiaries having annual revenues of more than
$20,000,000, and (vii) a default in the payment of principal or interest when

Shares (i) to their affiliates or limited partners which agree to be bound by
the voting and standstill restrictions set forth in the Stock Purchase
Agreement, (ii) to an entity which agrees to be bound by such restrictions, to
which the transfer has been approved by a majority of the directors who, with
respect to such transaction or series of transactions, have no material direct
or indirect financial interest in or with respect to such transaction or series
of transactions (the "Disinterested Directors"), (iii) to an entity that
following such transfer will beneficially own less than 5% of the Common Stock
of the Company on a fully diluted basis, (iv) pursuant to Rule 144 under the
Securities Act, (v) in a public offering registered under the Securities Act
pursuant to which, if such offering is not an underwritten offering, no one
entity obtains more than 5% of the Common Stock on a fully diluted basis, or
(vi) pursuant to (a) a tender offer commenced by the Company under the
circumstances described in the Stock Purchase Agreement, (b) a tender offer for
all outstanding shares of common Stock by any Person other than any Investor or

affiliate thereof, in connection with which the Board of Directors (1)
recommends that the stockholders of the Company tender their shares of common
Stock in such tender or exchange offer or (2) states that it is neutral with
respect to such tender or exchange offer. During the Restricted Period, the
Investors will not permit any Partnership Change of Control to occur. The
Investors may pledge, mortgage, hypothecate or grant a security interest in, or
grant participation rights in, the Shares, in each case to a banking institution
in a bona fide loan transaction, provided that if any pledgee, mortgagee or
holder of such security interest forecloses on the Shares, it may do so only if
such pledgee, mortgagee or holder agrees to be bound by the Transfer
Restrictions.
VOTING OF SHARES. The Investors have agreed that, for up to ten years,
so long as Investors beneficially own at least 25% of the outstanding Voting
Securities, unless a Post-Closing Event has occurred, the Investors will vote
all of their Voting Securities for a Board of Directors that will consist at all
times of a simple majority of Investor Designees and the remainder of
Non-Investor Designees. See "BY-LAWS AMENDMENT" for a description of the method
of nomination of Investor Designees and Non-Investor Designees.
STANDSTILL. The Investors have agreed that during the Standstill Period
(as defined below), they will not, nor will they permit any of their Affiliates
to, acquire, offer to acquire, or agree to acquire, any Voting Securities;
PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the Investors and any of their Affiliates may acquire
Voting Securities (i) as a result of a stock split, stock dividend or similar
recapitalization of the Company, the consummation of which does not violate the
terms of the ownership restriction set forth below, or (ii) so long as the
Investors and their Affiliates (together with any other Persons in a 13D Group
in which the Investors and their Affiliates are participants) beneficially own
no more than 46% of the Voting Securities of the Company. The "Standstill
Period" is the period from the date of the closing until the earliest to occur
of: (i) the fifth anniversary of the Closing, (ii) the date on which the
Investors and their Affiliates (together with any other Persons in a 13D Group
in which the Investors and their Affiliates are participants) cease to
beneficially own in the aggregate Voting Securities representing at least 10% of
the outstanding Voting Securities of the Company, (iii) a Change of Control (as
defined below), (iv) the sale of substantially all of the common Stock or all or
substantially all of the assets of the Company through a stock purchase
agreement, merger or other business combination, (v) a Post-Closing Event, or
(vi) a Bankruptcy Event, or defaults in payment of principal or interest when
due with respect to money borrowed having an aggregate principal amount in
excess of $10,000,000 (except under circumstances where the Company has
available funds to make such payment). A "Change of Control" for purposes of the
"Standstill Period" is defined as the acquisition by any Person or 13D Group
(other than the Investors and their respective Affiliates or any transferee
thereof) of beneficial ownership of Voting Securities representing the greater
of (i) 25% or (ii) the percentage of the outstanding Voting Securities
beneficially owned by the Investors, their Affiliates and any other Persons in a
13D Group with such Persons, minus 10%, or more of the outstanding Voting
Securities.

REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT
The following is a summary of certain provisions of the Registration
Rights Agreement, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 2 hereto and is
incorporated herein by reference. This summary is qualified in its entirety by
reference to the Registration Rights Agreement. Capitalized terms not otherwise
defined herein shall have the meaning ascribed to them in the Registration
Rights Agreement.
Concurrently with the execution of the Stock Purchase Agreement, the
Company and the Investors executed the Registration Rights Agreement, which
provides that any time after the earlier to occur of the second anniversary of
the Closing and the termination of the Restricted Period (as defined in the
Stock Purchase Agreement), one or more holders may request registration of their
Shares and certain shares issued with respect to any of the Shares by way of a
dividend, stock split, recapitalization, merger or similar event (the
"Registrable Securities"). Other holders of Registrable Securities may join in
the registration. Holders of other securities of the Company having registration
rights may participate only under certain circumstances and subject to certain
limitations. Underwriters for an underwritten offering will be selected by
Selling Holders (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) of more than
50% of each class of Registrable Securities to be included in the registration,
and must be reasonably acceptable to the Company. The Company will not be
required to effect more than four registrations or, except on the determination
by the Disinterested Directors that such registrations would not harm the stock
price, more than one in any six-month period. The Company is not required to
effect a registration statement covering less than 15% of the then-outstanding
Registrable Securities. The Company will pay all expenses in connection with the
first two such registrations and the holders of Registrable Securities to be
included in the offering and the Company will pay all expenses for the latter
two pro rata according to the number of Registrable Securities to be included in
the offering. If the Company proposes to register any Common Stock (except for
registration on Form S-4 or Form S-8), the holders of Registrable Securities
will have the opportunity to request inclusion of their Registrable Securities
in such registration on a pro rata basis with holders who have existing
registration rights. The Company will pay all expenses in connection with such
registrations.
The Company has generally agreed to use it best efforts to effect such
registrations within 90 days after the period within which requests for
registration may be given to the Company. The Company has also agreed to enter
into an underwriting agreement on customary terms in the case of an underwritten
requested registration, and to use its best efforts to arrange for the
underwriters to include requesting holders of Registrable Securities if the
Company proposes to register securities in an underwritten offering. The Company
has the right, in the case of a requested registration, to postpone the filing
of any registration statement for a reasonable period, not to exceed 90 days, if
in its reasonable judgment such registration would interfere with any financing,
acquisition, corporate reorganization or other material transaction.
<PAGE>
SCHEDULE 13D
CUSIP No. 72813P 100 Page 27 of 33 Pages
----------
The Company has agreed to indemnify each seller of Registrable
Securities covered by a registration statement and each underwriter in the
offering or sale of such Securities and their respective directors, officers,
partners, agents and affiliates, against certain liabilities, including
liabilities under the Securities Act.
SECURITIES AGREEMENT
The Securities Agreement, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 3
hereto and is incorporated herein by reference, provides for the shared voting
and dispositive power over the Shares between HWHV and Phemus. This section is
qualified in its entirety by reference to the Securities Agreement.
BY-LAWS AMENDMENT
The Company's stockholders have approved an amendment to the Company's
By-Laws (the "By-Laws Amendment"), effective only until the date on which no
party is contractually obligated to vote for nominees for director under the
Stock Purchase Agreement. See Stock Purchase Agreement; Voting of Shares." The
By-Laws Amendment amends the Company's By-Laws to provide that:
(i) stockholder nominations for director must be made by
written notice, containing certain information, to the Secretary of the Company
within ten days after notice of the annual or special meeting, provided that
notice shall not be required to be given more than 60 days prior to such
meeting;
(ii) the Board of Directors will be comprised of an odd number
of members from nine to fifteen as determined from time to time by the Board of
Directors;
(iii) nominations for a simple majority of the Board of
Directors to be elected at each annual meeting shall be made by a committee of
the Board of Directors (the "Investor Nominating Committee") consisting of
Investor Designees, and nominations for the remainder of the Board of directors
shall be made by a committee of the Board of Directors (the "Non-Investor
Nominating Committee") consisting of members who are Non-Investor Designees,
provided that two such Non-Investor Designees must be executive officers of the
Company, one of whom will be the chief executive officer, and two must be
Unaffiliated Persons (as defined in the By-Law Amendment); and
(iv) any amendments to the provisions of the By-Laws described
in (i) through (iii) above shall require the affirmative vote of holders of at
least two-thirds of the outstanding Common Stock.
The above summary of the By-Laws Amendment is qualified in its entirety
by reference to the By-Laws Amendment, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 4
and is incorporated herein by reference.

Item 6 is amended as follows:
AMENDMENT NO. 1
The following is a summary of certain new provisions contained in
Amendment No. 1, dated as of June 1, 1998 ("Amendment No. 1"), by and among, the
Company and the Investors, to the "Stock Purchase Agreement," dated as of March
17, 1995, among the Company and the Investors, a copy of which is attached
hereto as Exhibit 2A and is incorporated herein by reference. This summary is
qualified in its entirety by reference to Amendment No. 1. Capitalized terms not
otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in Amendment
No. 1.
PREEMPTIVE RIGHTS. The Investors have agreed to amend the Stock
Purchase Agreement to provide that after the "Effective Date" (which is defined
in Amendment No. 1 as the closing date of a transaction between other
stockholders of the Company, pursuant to a Stock Purchase Agreement dated as of
June 1, 1998.), subject to a few exceptions enumerated in Section 6.12(c), the
Investors shall be granted the right to purchase any voting Securities offered
by the Company and its subsidiaries for a proportionate share (based on
percentage of ownership of outstanding common stock on a fully diluted basis,
but without reference to any of two million (2,000,000) additional shares
purchased after the Effective Date) of private offering of common stock for
cash.
STANDSTILL. Amendment No. 1 deletes Article 7 of the Stock Purchase
Agreement entirely and replaces it with a new standstill provision, the effect
of which: (i) limits the Investors' acquisition of additional shares after the
Effective Date to two million (2,000,000) and (ii) increases the time period
during which the restriction applies (from the year 2000 to the year 2003).
FIRST AMENDED AND RESTATED REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT
The following is a summary of certain new provisions contained in the
First Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement (the "Amended
Registration Rights Agreement"), dated as of March 17, 1995, as amended and
restated as of June 1, 1998 among the Company and the Investors, a copy of which
is attached as Exhibit 3A hereto and is incorporated herein by reference. This
summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Amended Registration
Rights Agreement. Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the
meaning ascribed to them in the Amended Registration Rights Agreement. The
Investors' registration rights have been amended and restated solely to make
conforming changes in priorities paralleling those registration rights granted
to other stockholders of the Company (collectively, the "Other Registration
Rights Agreements"). The Amended Registration Rights Agreement will include the
following priorities in the event of a cutback:
- --------

(ii) If all parties to the Other Registration Rights
Agreements are exercising incidental rights, they receive priority on a pro rata
basis.

EXECUTION COPY
AMENDMENT NO. 1
Amendment No. 1, dated as of June 1, 1998, by and among PLAYTEX
PRODUCTS, INC., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), HWH CAPITAL PARTNERS,
L.P., a Delaware limited partnership ("HWH"), HWH VALENTINE PARTNERS, L.P., a
Delaware limited partnership, ("HWHV"), and HWH SURPLUS VALENTINE PARTNERS,
L.P., a Delaware limited partnership ("HWHSV" and, together with HWH and HWHV,
the "Purchasers"), to the Stock Purchase Agreement ("Agreement"), dated as of
March 17, 1995, among the Company and the Purchasers.
WHEREAS, there is a Stock Purchase Agreement dated as of June 1, 1998
(the "Purchase Agreement") between RCBA Playtex, L.P. ("Blum") and J.W. Childs
Equity Partners, L.P. ("Childs LP"), pursuant to which Blum has agreed to
purchase 6,000,000 shares of the Company's common stock, par value $.01 from
Childs LP; and
WHEREAS, the parties to the Agreement wish to amend the Agreement as
set forth herein.
NOW, THEREFORE, the Company and the Purchasers agree as follows:
1. Effectiveness. The Agreement, as amended, herein, shall be effective
upon (and only upon) the Closing (as defined in the Purchase Agreement, and
hereinafter referred to as the "Effective Date"). In the event the Purchase
Agreement is terminated, this Agreement shall be deemed not to have been so
amended and
<PAGE>
2
restated and shall remain in full force and effect in the form it existed
immediately prior to the date hereof.
2. Amendment to Article 6 of the Agreement. Article 6 of the Agreement
shall be amended by adding at the end thereof the following:
6.12 Preemptive Rights.
(a) From and after the Effective Date, except as provided
below, the Company shall not issue, sell or transfer or allow any of
its subsidiaries to issue, sell or transfer any Voting Securities (the
"Offered Securities") unless the Purchasers are offered in writing the
right to purchase, at the same price or on the same terms proposed to
be issued and sold, a portion of the Offered Securities (the "Stated
Percentage") equal to the product of (i) the total number of Offered
Securities multiplied by (ii) a fraction, the numerator of which is the
lesser of (x) 20,000,000 or (y) the number of Voting Securities then
owned by the Purchasers and the denominator of which is the total
number of the then outstanding shares of Common Stock, computed on a
fully diluted basis (the "Preemptive Rights"). If the Offered
Securities are being issued in connection with the issuance of any
other securities, or incurrence of any debt, by the Company ("Other
Securities or Debt"), the Purchasers shall be required to purchase
their Stated Percentage of such Other Securities or Debt in order to
exercise their Preemptive Rights. The Purchasers shall have the right,
during the period specified
<PAGE>
3
in Section 6.12(b), to accept the offer for any or all of their portion
of the Offered Securities.
(b) Any Purchaser who does not deliver to the Company written
notice of acceptance of any offer made pursuant to Section 6.12(a)
within 10 business days after such Purchaser's receipt of such offer
shall be deemed to have waived its rights to purchase the Offered
Securities which are the subject of such offer (including, if the
Offered Securities include convertible securities, options, or other
rights to acquire securities, such other securities.)
(c) Section 6.12(a) shall not apply to (i) the grant of
options to purchase Voting Securities, or the issuance of shares of
Voting Securities, to employees of the Company or any of its
subsidiaries, (ii) shares of Voting Securities issuable upon exercise
of any option, warrant, convertible security or other rights to
purchase or subscribe for Voting Securities which, in each case, had
been issued in compliance with Section 6.12(a) or under Section
6.12(c)(i), (iii) securities issued pursuant to any stock split,
combination of stock, stock dividend or other similar stock
recapitalization, (iv) shares of Voting Securities issued pursuant to
an employee stock option or similar plan, (v) shares of Voting
Securities issued in connection with the acquisition of the stock or
assets or of any other Person (vi) shares of Voting Securities issued
pursuant to any registered public offering under the 1933 Act, or

(vii) any issuance of Offered Securities occurring after the Purchasers

Stock.
3. Amendment to Article 7 of the Agreement: Article 7 of the Agreement
is deleted in the entirety and replaced with the following:

7.1 Prohibited Activities. The Purchasers agree that during
the Standstill Period they will not, nor will they permit any of their
Affiliates to, directly or indirectly, acquire, offer to acquire, or
agree to acquire, by purchase any Voting Securities; provided, however,
that nothing contained herein shall prohibit the Purchasers or any of
their Affiliates from acquiring any Voting Securities (i) as a result
of a stock split, stock dividend or similar recapi talization by the
Company, the consummation of which shall not result in a violation of
Section 7.1 or (ii) so long as the Purchasers and their Affiliates
beneficially own (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 of the Exchange
Act), in the aggregate, no more than 22,000,000 shares of Voting
Securities (as adjusted for stock splits, combination of stock, stock
dividends or similar recapitalization by the Company) immediately
following such acquisition of Voting Securities; provided, however,
that nothing in this Section 7.1 shall prohibit the Purchasers from
acquiring any Voting Securities in accordance with the provisions of
Section 6.12. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any breach of Section
7.1 caused by an acquisition of a non-material amount of Voting
Securities shall
<PAGE>
5
have been cured by disposition of Voting Securities within 30 days
after the Purchasers become aware of such breach, then no breach of
this Section 7.1 shall be deemed to have occurred.
7.2 Standstill Period. As used herein, the term "Standstill
Period" shall mean the period from the date that the Closing occurs
until the earliest to occur of (each a "Termination Event"):
(A) the date that is the fifth anniversary of the
Effective Date;
(B) the date on which the Purchasers and their
Affiliates cease to beneficially own (within the meaning of
Rule 13d-3 of the Exchange Act), in the aggregate, at least
10% of the outstanding Voting Securities;
(C) a Change of Control;
(D) the sale of substantially all of the Common Stock
of the Company or all or substantially all of the assets of
the Company or its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, through a
stock purchase agreement, merger or other business combination
not in violation of Section 6.10;
(E) a Post-Closing Event;
(F) a Bankruptcy Event; or
(G) default in the payment of principal or interest
when due (whether at maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise)
after the expiration of any grace periods applicable thereto
with respect to
<PAGE>

indebtedness of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries for
money borrowed having an aggregate outstanding principal
amount in excess of $10,000,000 or more (unless at the time
thereof the Company shall have unrestricted cash, cash
equivalents or commitments under existing debt instruments
available to make such payment).

FIRST AMENDED AND RESTATED REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT, dated as of
March 17, 1995, as amended and restated as of June 1, 1998, among PLAYTEX
PRODUCTS, INC., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), HWH CAPITAL PARTNERS,
L.P., a Delaware limited partnership ("HWH"), HWH VALENTINE PARTNERS, L.P., a
Delaware limited partnership ("HWHV"), HWH Surplus Valentine Partners, L.P.
("HSVP" and, together with HWH and HWHV, the "Purchasers").
The parties hereby agree as follows:
1. Background.
(a) There is a Stock Purchase Agreement dated as of
June 1, 1998 (the "Purchase Agreement"), between RCBA PLAYTEX, L.P., a Delaware
limited partnership ("Blum"), and J.W. Childs Equity Partners, L.P. ("Childs
LP"), pursuant to which Blum has agreed to purchase 6,000,000 shares of the
Company's common stock, par value $.01 ("Common Stock") from Childs LP; and
(b) This Agreement, as amended and restated, herein,
shall be effective upon (and only upon) the Closing (as defined in the Purchase
Agreement, and hereinafter referred to as the "Effective Date"). In the event
the Purchase Agreement is terminated, this Agreement shall be deemed not to have
been so amended and restated and shall remain in full force and effect in the
form it existed immediately prior to the date hereof. Capitalized terms used
herein and not otherwise defined shall have the meanings given them in Section
3.
2. Registration Under Securities Act, etc.
2.1 Registration on Request.
(a) Request. At any time, upon the written request of
one or more holders (the "Initiating Holders") of Registrable Securities that
the Company effect the registration under the Securities Act of all or part of
such Initiating Holders' Registrable Securities, the Company promptly will give
written notice of such requested registration to all registered holders of
Registrable Securities, and thereupon the Company will use its best efforts to
effect, at the earliest possible date, the registration under the Securities Act
of:
(i) the Registrable Securities which the
Company has been so requested to register by such Initiating Holders;
and
<PAGE>
2
(ii) all other Registrable Securities which
the Company has been requested to register by the holders thereof (such
holders together with the Initiating Holders hereinafter are referred
to as the "Selling Holders") by written request given to the Company
within 30 days after the giving of such written notice by the Company,
all to the extent necessary to permit the disposition of the
Registrable Securities so to be registered.
(b) Registration of Other Securities. Whenever the
Company shall effect a registration pursuant to this Section 2.1, no securities
other than Registrable Securities shall be included among the securities covered
by such registration unless the Selling Holders of not less than 66-2/3% of all
Registrable Securities to be covered by such registration shall have consented
in writing to the inclusion of such other securities; provided, however, that
such consent shall not be required with respect to securities being registered
pursuant to the Other Registration Rights Agreements.
(c) Registration Statement Form. Registrations under
this Section 2.1 shall be on such appropriate registration form of the
Commission as shall be reasonably selected by the Company.
(d) Effective Registration Statement. A registration
requested pursuant to this Section 2.1 shall not be deemed to have been effected
(i) unless a registration statement with respect thereto has become effective
and remained effective in compliance with the provisions of the Securities Act
with respect to the disposition of all Registrable Securities covered by such
registration statement until such time as all of such Registrable Securities
have been disposed of in accordance with the intended methods of disposition by
the seller or sellers thereof set forth in such registration statement (unless
the failure to so dispose of such Registrable Securities shall be caused solely
by reason of a failure on the part of the Selling Holders); provided, that such
period need not exceed 135 days; (ii) if after it has become effective, such
registration is interfered with by any stop order, injunction or other order or
requirement of the Commission or other governmental agency or court for any
reason not attributable solely to the Selling Holders, or (iii) if the
conditions to closing specified in the underwriting agreement, if any, entered
into in connection with such registration are not satisfied or waived, other
than solely by reason of a failure on the part of the Selling Holders.
(e) Selection of Underwriters. The underwriter or
underwriters of each underwritten offering of the Registrable Securities so to
be registered shall be selected by the Selling Holders of more than 50% of each
class of Registrable Securities to be included in such registration and shall be
reasonably acceptable to the Company.
(f) Priority in Requested Registration. If the
managing underwriter of any underwritten offering shall advise the Company in
writ-
<PAGE>
3
ing (and the Company shall so advise each Selling Holder of Registrable
Securities requesting registration of such advice) that, in its opinion, the
number of securities requested to be included in such registration exceeds the
number which can be sold in such offering within a price range acceptable to the
Selling Holders of 66-2/3% of the Registrable Securities requested to be
included in such registration, the Company, except as provided in the following
sentence, will include in such registration, to the extent of the number and
type which the Company is so advised can be sold in such offering, first,
Registrable Securities requested to be included in such registration, PRO RATA
(based on the number of Registrable Securities held by each of the Selling
Holders) among the Selling Holders requesting such registration, second, such
Registrable Securities (as defined in the Other Registration Rights Agreements
and hereinafter referred to as "Third Party Securities") requested to be
included in such registration pursuant to the Other Registration Rights
Agreements, PRO RATA (based on the number of Third Party Securities requested by
each Securityholder requesting such registration) among the Securityholders
requesting such registration and third, all securities to be sold by the Company
for its own account. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the total number of
Registrable Securities requested to be included in any registration cannot be
included, holders of Registrable Securities requesting registration thereof
pursuant to Section 2.1, representing not less than 50% of the Registrable
Securities with respect to which registration has been requested, shall have the
right to withdraw the request for registration by giving written notice to the
Company within 20 days after receipt of the notice from the managing underwriter
described above by the Company and, in the event of such withdrawal, such
request shall not be counted for purposes of the requests for registration to
which holders of Registrable Securities are entitled pursuant to Section 2.1
hereof. If a request for registration is withdrawn pursuant to the immediately
preceding sentence and at least 80% of the Registrable Securities requested to
be included in such withdrawn registration could have been included therein, the
Registration Expenses incurred by the Company in connection with such withdrawn
registration shall be reimbursed by the Selling Holders, PRO RATA (based on the
number of Registrable Securities requested to be included therein) among the
Selling Holders.
(g) Limitations on Registration Requests.
Notwithstanding anything in this Section 2.1 to the contrary, in no event will
the Company be required to:
(i) effect, in the aggregate, more than four
registrations pursuant to this Section 2.1,
(ii) effect a registration pursuant to this
Section 2.1 within the six-month period occurring immediately
subsequent to the effectiveness (within the meaning of Section 2.1(d))
of a registration statement filed pursuant to this Section 2.1, unless
a majority of the Disinterested Directors determines that effecting a
second registration within
<PAGE>
4
the six-month period would not have a material adverse effect on the
market price of the Common Stock; or
(iii) effect a registration pursuant to
Section 2.1 covering less than 15% of the then outstanding Registrable
Securities.
(h) Expenses. The Company will pay all Registration
Expenses in connection with any registrations requested pursuant to this Section
2.1; provided, that after two registrations have been effected under Section
2.1, the Selling Holders and the Company will pay Registration Expenses in
connection with any registration requested pursuant to this Section 2.1, PRO
RATA (based on the number of Registrable Securities included in such
registration by each Selling Holder and the number of securities included
therein by the Company) among the Selling Holders and the Company. Solely for
purposes of this Section 2.1(b), Third Party Securities included in a
registration requested pursuant to this Section 2.1 shall be considered
securities included therein by the Company.
2.2 Incidental Registration.
(a) Right to Include Registrable Securities. If the
Company at any time proposes to register any of its Common Stock under the
Securities Act by registration on any form other than Forms S-4 or S-8, whether
or not for sale for its own account, it will each such time give prompt written
notice to all registered holders of Registrable Securities of its intention to
do so and of such holders' rights under this Section 2.2. Upon the written
request of any such holder (a "Requesting Holder"), made as promptly as
practicable and in any event within 30 days after the receipt of any such notice
from the Company (15 days if the Company states in such written notice or gives
telephonic or telecopied notice to all registered holders of Registrable
Securities, with written confirmation to follow promptly thereafter, that (i)
such registration will be on Form S-3 and (ii) such shorter period of time is
required because of a planned filing date) (which request shall specify the
Registrable Securities intended to be disposed of by such Requesting Holder),
the Company will use its best efforts to effect the registration under the
Securities Act of all Registrable Securities which the Company has been so
requested to register by the Requesting Holders thereof; provided, that prior to
the effective date of the registration statement filed in connection with such
registration, immediately upon notification to the Company from the managing
underwriter of the price at which such securities are to be sold, if such price
is below the price which any Requesting Holder shall have indicated to be
acceptable to such Requesting Holder, the Company shall so advise such
Requesting Holder of such price, and such Requesting Holder shall then have the
right to withdraw its request to have its Registrable Securities included in
such registration statement; provided, further, however, that if, at any time
after giving written notice of its intention to register any securities and
prior to the effective date of the registration statement filed in connection
with such registration, the Company shall determine for any reason not to
register or to delay registration of
<PAGE>
5
such securities, the Company may, at its election, give written notice of such
determination to each Requesting Holder of Registrable Securities and (x) in the
case of a determination not to register, shall be relieved of its obligation to
register any Registrable Securities in connection with such registration (but
not from any obligation of the Company to pay the Registration Expenses in
connection therewith), without prejudice, however, to the rights of any holder
or holders of Registrable Securities entitled to do so to cause such
registration to be effected as a registration under Section 2.1, and (y) in the
case of a determination to delay registering, shall be permitted to delay
registering any Registrable Securities, for the same period as the delay in
registering such other securities. No registration effected under this Section
2.2 shall relieve the Company of its obligation to effect any registration upon
request under Section 2.1.
(b) Priority in Incidental Registrations. If the
managing underwriter of any underwritten offering shall inform the Company by
letter of its opinion that the number or type of Registrable Securities and
Third Party Securities requested to be included in such registration would
materially adversely affect such offering, and the Company has so advised the
Requesting Holders, then the Company will include in such registration, to the
extent of the number and type which the Company is so advised can be sold in (or
during the time of) such offering, first, (x) if such registration is being
effected pursuant to the request of Securityholders under provisions of one of
the Other Registration Rights Agreements comparable to Section 2.1, all Third
Party Securities so requested by such Securityholders under such Other
Registration Rights Agreement, or (y) if such registration is not being so
effected, all securities of the Company to be sold for its own account, and
second, such Registrable Securities requested to be included in such
registration pursuant to this Agreement and such Third Party Securities
requested to be included in such registration pursuant to the provisions of the
Other Registration Rights Agreements comparable to this Section 2.2, PRO RATA
(based on the number of Registrable Securities requested to be included therein
by each Selling Holder and the number of Third Party Securities requested to be
included therein by each Securityholder) among such Selling Holders and the
Securityholders and third, if clause (x) of this Section 2.2(b) applies, all
securities proposed by the Company be sold for its own account.
(c) Expenses. The Company will pay all Registration
Expenses in connection with any registration contemplated pursuant to this
Section 2.2.
2.3 Registration Procedures. If and whenever the Company is
required to use its best efforts to effect the registration of any Registrable
Securities under the Securities Act as provided in Sections 2.1 and 2.2, the
Company will, as expeditiously as possible:
<PAGE>
6
(i) prepare and (within 90 days after the
end of the period within which requests for registration may be given
to the Company) file with the Commission the requisite registration
statement to effect such registration and thereafter use its best
efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective;
provided, however, that the Company may discontinue any registration of
its securities which are not Registrable Securities (and, under the
circumstances specified in Section 2.2(b), Registrable Securities) at
any time prior to the effective date of the registration statement
relating thereto;
(ii) prepare and file with the Commission
such amendments and supplements to such registration statement and the
prospectus used in connection therewith as may be necessary to keep
such registration statement effective in accordance with Section
2.1(d)(i) hereof and to comply with the provisions of the Securities
Act with respect to the disposition of all Registrable Securities
covered by such registration statement until such time as all of such
Registrable Securities have been disposed of in accordance with the
intended methods of disposition by the seller or sellers thereof set
forth in such registration statement; provided, that except with
respect to any such registration statement filed pursuant to Rule 415
under the Securities Act, such period need not exceed 135 days;
(iii) furnish to each seller of Registrable
Securities covered by such registration statement, such number of
conformed copies of such registration statement and of each such
amendment and supplement thereto (in each case including all exhibits),
such number of copies of the prospectus contained in such registration
statement (including each preliminary prospectus and any summary
prospectus) and any other prospectus filed under Rule 424 under the
Securities Act, in conformity with the requirements of the Securities
Act, and such other documents, as such seller may reasonably request;
(iv) use its reasonable best efforts (x) to
register or qualify all Registrable Securities and other securities
covered by such registration statement under such other securities or
blue sky laws of such States of the United States of America where an
exemption is not available and as the sellers of Registrable Securities
covered by such registration statement shall reasonably request, (y) to
keep such registration or qualification in effect for so long as such
registration statement remains in effect and (z) to take any other
action which may be reasonably necessary or advisable to enable such
sellers to consummate the disposition in such jurisdictions of the
securities to be sold by such sellers, except that the Company shall
not for any such purpose be required to qualify generally to do
business as a foreign corporation in any jurisdiction wherein it would
not but for the requirements of
<PAGE>
7
this subdivision (iv) be obligated to be so qualified or to consent to
general service of process in any such jurisdiction;
(v) use its best efforts to cause all
Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement to be
registered with or approved by such other federal or state governmental
agencies or authorities as may be necessary in the reasonable opinion
of counsel to the Company and counsel to the seller or sellers of
Registrable Securities to enable the seller or sellers thereof to
consummate the disposition of such Registrable Securities;
(vi) furnish at the effective date of such
registration statement to each seller of Registrable Securities, and
each such seller's underwriters, if any, a signed counterpart of:
(x) an opinion of counsel for the
Company, dated the effective date of such registration
statement and, if applicable, the date of the closing under
the underwriting agreement, and
(y) a "comfort" letter signed by the
independent public accountants who have certified the
Company's financial statements included or incorporated by
reference in such registration statement,
covering substantially the same matters with respect to such
registration statement (and the prospectus included therein) and, in
the case of the accountants' comfort letter, with respect to events
subsequent to the date of such financial statements, as are customarily
covered in opinions of issuer's counsel and in accountants' comfort
letters delivered to the underwriters in underwritten public offerings
of securities and, in the case of the accountants' comfort letter, such
other financial matters, and, in the case of the legal opinion, such
other legal matters, as the underwriters may reasonably request;
(vii) notify each seller of Registrable
Securities covered by such registration statement at any time when a
prospectus relating thereto is required to be delivered under the
Securities Act, upon discovery that, or upon the happening of any event
as a result of which, the prospectus included in such registration
statement, as then in effect, includes an untrue statement of a
material fact or omits to state any material fact required to be stated
therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, in
the light of the circumstances under which they were made, and at the
request of any such seller promptly prepare and furnish to it a
reasonable number of copies of a supplement to or an amendment of such
prospectus as may be necessary so that, as thereafter delivered to the
purchasers of such securities, such prospectus shall not include an
untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact
required to be stated therein or necessary to make the
<PAGE>
8
statements therein not misleading in the light of the circumstances
under which they were made;
(viii) otherwise use its best efforts to
comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the Commission, and
make available to its security holders, as soon as reasonably
practicable (but not more than eighteen months after the effective date
of such registration statement), an earnings statement covering the
period of at least twelve months beginning with the first full calendar
month after the effective date of such registration statement, which
earnings statement shall satisfy the provisions of Section 11(a) of the
Securities Act and Rule 158 promulgated thereunder;
(ix) provide and cause to be maintained a
transfer agent and registrar (which, in each case, may be the Company)
for all Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement
from and after a date not later than the effective date of such
registration; and
(x) use its best efforts to list all
Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement on any
national securities exchange on which Registrable Securities of the
same class covered by such registration statement are then listed and,
if no such Registrable Securities are so listed, on any national
securities exchange on which the Common Stock is then listed.
The Company may require each seller of Registrable Securities as to
which any registration is being effected to furnish the Company (i) such
information regarding such seller and the distribution of such securities as the
Company may from time to time reasonably request in writing and (ii) if
requested by the Company, an executed custody agreement and power of attorney in
form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Company with respect to the
Registrable Securities to be registered pursuant to this Agreement.
Each holder of Registrable Securities agrees by acquisition of such
Registrable Securities that, upon receipt of any notice from the Company of the
happening of any event of the kind described in subdivision (vii) of this
Section 2.3, such holder will forthwith discontinue such holder's disposition of
Registrable Securities pursuant to the registration statement relating to such
Registrable Securities until such holder's receipt of the copies of the
supplemented or amended prospectus contemplated by subdivision (vii) of this
Section 2.3 and, if so directed by the Company, will deliver to the Company (at
the Company's expense) all copies, other than permanent file copies, then in
such holder's possession of the prospectus relating to such Registrable
Securities current at the time of receipt of such notice.

2.4 Underwritten Offerings.
(a) Requested Underwritten Offerings. If requested by
the underwriters for any underwritten offering by holders of Registrable
Securities pursuant to a registration requested under Section 2.1, the Company
will enter into an underwriting agreement with such underwriters for such
offering, such agreement to be reasonably satisfactory in substance and form to
each such holder and the underwriters and to contain such representations and
warranties by the Company and such other terms as are generally prevailing in
agreements of that type, including, without limitation, indemnities to the
effect and to the extent provided in Section 2.7 or such other indemnities as
are customarily received by underwriters in public offerings of similar
securities. The holders of the Registrable Securities proposed to be sold by
such underwriters will reasonably cooperate with the Company in the negotiation
of the underwriting agreement. Such holders of Registrable Securities to be sold
by such underwriters shall be parties to such underwriting agreement and may, at
their option, require that any or all of the representations and warranties by,
and the other agreements on the part of, the Company to and for the benefit of
such underwriters shall also be made to and for the benefit of such holders of
Registrable Securities and that any or all of the conditions precedent to the
obligations of such underwriters under such underwriting agreement be conditions
precedent to the obligations of such holders of Registrable Securities. No
holder of Registrable Securities shall be required to make any representations
or warranties to or agreements with the Company other than representations,
warranties or agreements regarding such holder, such holder's Registrable
Securities and such holder's intended method of distribution or any other
representations required by applicable law.
(b) Incidental Underwritten Offerings. If the Company
proposes to register any of its securities under the Securities Act as
contemplated by Section 2.2 and such securities are to be distributed by or
through one or more underwriters, the Company will, if requested by any
Requesting Holder of Registrable Securities, use its reasonable best efforts to
arrange for such underwriters to include all the Registrable Securities to be
offered and sold by such Requesting Holder among the securities of the Company
to be distributed by such underwriters, subject to the provisions of Section
2.2(b). The holders of Registrable Securities to be distributed by such
underwriters shall be parties to the underwriting agreement between the Company
and such underwriters and may, at their option, require that any or all of the
representations and warranties by, and the other agreements on the part of, the
Company to and for the benefit of such underwriters shall also be made to and
for the benefit of such holders of Registrable Securities and that any or all of
the conditions precedent to the obligations of such underwriters under such
underwriting agreement be conditions precedent to the obligations of such
holders of Registrable Securities. Any such Requesting Holder of Registrable
Securities shall not be required to make any representations or warranties to or
agreements with the Company or the underwriters other than representations,
warranties or agreements regarding such Requesting Holder, such Requesting
<PAGE>
10
Holder's Registrable Securities and such Requesting Holder's intended method of
distribution or any other representations required by applicable law.
2.5 Preparation; Reasonable Investigation. In connection with
the preparation and filing of each registration statement under the Securities
Act pursuant to this Agreement, the Company will give the holders of Registrable
Securities to be registered under such registration statement, their
underwriters, if any, and their respective counsel the opportunity to
participate in the preparation of such registration statement, each prospectus
included therein or filed with the Commission, and each amendment thereof or
supplement thereto, and will give each of them such reasonable access to its
books and records and such opportunities to discuss the business of the Company
with its officers and the independent public accountants who have certified its
financial statements as shall be necessary, in the opinion of such holders' and
such underwriters' respective counsel, to conduct a reasonable investigation
within the meaning of the Securities Act.
2.6 Limitations, Conditions and Qualifications to Obligations
under Registration Covenants. The Company shall be entitled to postpone for a
reasonable period of time (but not exceeding 90 days) the filing of any
registration statement otherwise required to be prepared and filed by it
pursuant to Section 2.1 if the Company determines, in its reasonable judgment,
that such registration and offering would interfere with any financing,
acquisition, corporate reorganization or other material transaction involving
the Company and promptly gives the holders of Registrable Securities requesting
registration thereof pursuant to Section 2.1 written notice of such
determination, containing a general statement of the reasons for such
postponement and an approximation of the anticipated delay. If the Company shall
so postpone the filing of a registration statement, holders of Registrable
Securities requesting registration thereof pursuant to Section 2.1, representing
not less than 50% of the Registrable Securities with respect to which
registration has been requested, shall have the right to withdraw the request
for registration by giving written notice to the Company within 30 days after
receipt of the notice of postponement and, in the event of such withdrawal, such
request shall not be counted for purposes of the requests for registration to
which holders of Registrable Securities are entitled pursuant to Section 2.1
hereof.
2.7 Indemnification.
(a) Indemnification by the Company. The Company will,
and hereby does, indemnify and hold harmless, in the case of any registration
statement filed pursuant to Section 2.1 or 2.2, each seller of any Registrable
Securities covered by such registration statement and each other Person who
participates as an underwriter in the offering or sale of such securities and
each other Person, if any, who controls such seller or any such underwriter
within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, and their
respective directors, officers, partners, agents and affiliates, against any
losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint
<PAGE>
11
or several, to which such seller or underwriter or any such director, officer,
partner, agent, affiliate or controlling person may become subject under the
Securities Act or otherwise, including, without limitation, the reasonable fees
and expenses of legal counsel, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or
liabilities (or actions or proceedings, whether commenced or threatened, in
respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged
untrue statement of any material fact contained in any registration statement
under which such securities were registered under the Securities Act, any
preliminary prospectus, final prospectus or summary prospectus contained
therein, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or any omission or alleged
omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or
necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and the Company will
reimburse such seller or underwriter and each such director, officer, partner,
agent, affiliate and controlling Person for any reasonable legal or any other
expenses incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such
loss, claim, liability, action or proceeding; provided, however, that the
Company shall not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss,
claim, damage, liability (or action or proceeding in respect thereof) or expense
arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement
or omission or alleged omission made in such registration statement, any such
preliminary prospectus, final prospectus, summary prospectus, amendment or
supplement in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished
to the Company by or on behalf of such seller or underwriter, as the case may
be, specifically stating that it is for use in the preparation thereof;
provided, further, that the Company shall not be liable in any such case to the
extent that any such loss, claim, damage, liability or expense arises out of or
is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material
fact contained in any such registration statement, preliminary prospectus, final
prospectus or summary prospectus contained therein or any omission to state
therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the
statements therein in light of the circumstances in which they were made not
misleading in a prospectus or prospectus supplement, if (i) such untrue
statement or omission is completely corrected in an amendment or supplement to
such prospectus or prospectus supplement, the seller of the Registrable
Securities has an obligation under the Securities Act to deliver a prospectus or
prospectus supplement in connection with such sale of Registrable Securities and
the seller of Registrable Securities thereafter fails to deliver such prospectus
or prospectus supplement as so amended or supplemented prior to or concurrently
with the sale of Registrable Securities to the person asserting such loss,
claim, damage or liability after the Company has furnished such seller with a
sufficient number of copies of the same or (ii) if the seller received written
notice from the Company of the existence of such an untrue statement or such an
omission and the seller continued to dispose of Registrable Securities prior to
the time of the receipt of either (a) an amended or supplemented prospectus or
prospectus supplement that completely corrected the untrue statement or the
omission or (b) a notice from the Company that the use of the existing
prospectus or prospectus supplement may be resumed. Such indemnity shall remain
in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of
<PAGE>
12
such seller or underwriter or any such director, officer, partner, agent,
affiliate or controlling person and shall survive the transfer of such
securities by such seller or underwriter.
(b) Indemnification by the Sellers. As a condition to
including any Registrable Securities in any registration statement, the Company
shall have received an undertaking reasonably satisfactory to it from the
prospective seller of such Registrable Securities, to indemnify and hold
harmless (in the same manner and to the same extent as set forth in Section
2.7(a)) the Company, and each director of the Company, each officer of the
Company and each other Person, if any, who participates as an underwriter in the
offering or sale of such securities and each other Person who controls the
Company or any such underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act or the
Exchange Act, with respect to any statement or alleged statement in or omission
or alleged omission from such registration statement, any preliminary
prospectus, final prospectus or summary prospectus contained therein, or any
amendment or supplement thereto, if such statement or alleged statement or
omission or alleged omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with
written information furnished to the Company by such seller specifically stating
that it is for use in the preparation of such registration statement,
preliminary prospectus, final prospectus, summary prospectus, amendment or
supplement; provided, however, that the liability of such indemnifying party
under this Section 2.7(b) shall be limited to the amount of proceeds received by
such indemnifying party in the offering giving rise to such liability. Such
indemnity shall remain in full force and effect, regardless of any investigation
made by or on behalf of the Company or any such director, officer or controlling
person and shall survive the transfer of such securities by such seller.
(c) Notices of Claims, etc. Promptly after receipt by
an indemnified party of notice of the commencement of any action or proceeding
involving a claim referred to in Section 2.7(a) or (b), such indemnified party
will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against an indemnifying party,
give written notice to the latter of the commencement of such action; provided,
however, that the failure of any indemnified party to give notice as provided
herein shall not relieve the indemnifying party of its obligations under the
preceding subdivisions of this Sec tion 2.7, except to the extent that the
indemnifying party is actually and materially prejudiced by such failure to give
notice. In case any such action shall be brought against any indemnified party
and it shall notify the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the
indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent
that it may wish, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably
satisfactory to such indemnified party; provided, however, that any indemnified
party may, at its own expense, retain separate counsel to participate in such
defense. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in any action or proceeding in which
both the Company and an indemnified party is, or is reasonably likely to become,
a party, such indemnified party shall have the right to employ separate counsel
at the Company's expense and to control its own defense of such action or
proceeding if, in
<PAGE>
13
the reasonable opinion of counsel to such indemnified party, (a) there are or
may be legal defenses available to such indemnified party or to other
indemnified parties that are different from or additional to those available to
the Company or (b) any conflict or potential conflict exists between the Company
and such indemnified party that would make such separate representation
advisable; provided, however, that in no event shall the Company be required to
pay fees and expenses under this Section 2.7 for more than one firm of attorneys
representing the indemnified parties (together, if appropriate, with one firm of
local counsel per jurisdiction) in any one legal action or group of related
legal actions. No indemnifying party shall be liable for any settle ment of any
action or proceeding effected without its written consent, which consent shall
not be unreasonably withheld. No indemnifying party shall, without the consent
of the indemnified party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld,
consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement which does not
include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff
to such indemnified party of a release from all liability in respect to such
claim or litigation or which requires action other than the payment of money by
the indemnifying party.
(d) Contribution. If the indemnification provided for
in this Section 2.7 shall for any reason be held by a court to be unavailable to
an indemnified party under Section 2.7(a) or (b) hereof in respect of any loss,
claim, damage or liability, or any action in respect thereof, then, in lieu of
the amount paid or payable under Section 2.7(a) or (b), the indemnified party
and the indemnifying party under Section 2.7(a) or (b) shall contribute to the
aggregate losses, claims, damages and liabilities (including legal or other
expenses reasonably incurred in connection with investigating the same), (i) in
such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Company
and the prospective sellers of Registrable Securities covered by the
registration statement which resulted in such loss, claim, damage or liability,
or action or proceeding in respect thereof, with respect to the statements or
omissions which resulted in such loss, claim, damage or liability, or action or
proceeding in respect thereof, as well as any other relevant equitable
considerations or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) above is not
permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as shall be appropriate to
reflect the relative benefits received by the Company and such prospective
sellers from the offering of the securities covered by such registration
statement, provided, that for purposes of this clause (ii), the relative
benefits received by the prospective sellers shall be deemed not to exceed the
amount of proceeds received by such prospective sellers. No Person guilty of
fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the
Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any Person who was not
guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. Such prospective sellers'
obligations to contribute as provided in this Section 2.7(d) are several in
proportion to the relative value of their respective Registrable Securities
covered by such registration statement and not joint. In addition, no Person
shall be obligated to contribute hereunder any amounts in payment for any
settlement of any action or claim effected without such Person's consent, which
consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.
<PAGE>
14
(e) Other Indemnification. Indemnification and
contribution similar to that specified in the preceding subdivisions of this
Section 2.7 (with appropriate modifications) shall be given by the Company and
each seller of Registrable Securities with respect to any required registration
or other qualification of securities under any federal or state law or
regulation of any governmental authority other than the Securities Act.
(f) Indemnification Payments. The indemnification and
contribution required by this Section 2.7 shall be made by periodic payments of
the amount thereof during the course of the investigation or defense, as and
when bills are received or expense, loss, damage or liability is incurred.

specific performance that a remedy at law would be adequate.
12. Severability. In the event that any one or more of the provisions

of the Exchange Act) with such Persons cease to beneficially own in the
aggregate securities entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, or
securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for such securities
("Voting Securities") representing at least 10% of the Voting Securities of the

(c) any Investor Designee becomes unable to serve for any reason during his or
her term and is not replaced by an Investor Designee at or before the earlier of

partners which agree to be bound by the voting and standstill restrictions set
forth in the Stock Purchase Agreement, (ii) to an entity which agrees to be
bound by such restrictions, to which the transfer has been approved by a

or exchange offer. During the Restricted Period, the Investors will not permit
any Partnership Change of Control to occur. The Investors may pledge, mortgage,
hypothecate or grant a security interest in, or grant participation rights in,
the Shares, in each case to a banking institution in a bona fide loan
transaction, provided that if any pledgee, mortgagee or holder of such security
interest forecloses on the Shares, it may do so only if such pledgee, mortgagee

terms of the ownership restriction set forth below, or (ii) so long as the
Investors and their Affiliates (together with any other Persons in a 13D Group
in which the Investors and their Affiliates are participants) beneficially own

Period" is the period from the date of the clos ing until the earliest to occur
of: (i) the fifth anniver sary of the Closing, (ii) the date on which the
Investors and their Affiliates (together with any other Persons in a 13D Group
in which the Investors and their Affiliates are participants) cease to
beneficially own in the aggregate Voting Securities representing at least 10% of
the outstand ing Voting Securities of the Company, (iii) a Change of Control (as
defined below), (iv) the sale of substantially all of the common Stock or all or
substantially all of the assets of the Company through a stock purchase
agreement, merger or other business combination, (v) a Post-Closing Event, or
(vi) a Bankruptcy Event, or defaults in payment of principal or interest when
due with respect to money borrowed having an aggregate principal amount in
excess of $10,000,000 (except under circumstances where the Company has

(other than the Investors and their respective Affiliates or any transferee
thereof) of beneficial ownership of Voting Securities representing the greater
of (i) 25% or (ii) the percentage of the outstanding Voting Securities

13D Group with such Persons, minus 10%, or more of the out standing Voting
Securities.

Registration Rights Agreement
The following is a summary of certain provisions of the Registration
Rights Agreement, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 2 hereto and is
incorporated herein by reference. This summary is qualified in its entirety by
reference to the Registration Rights Agreement. Capitalized terms not otherwise
defined herein shall have the meaning ascribed to them in the Registration
Rights Agreement.
Concurrently with the execution of the Stock Purchase Agreement, the
Company and the Investors executed the Registration Rights Agreement, which
provides that any time after the earlier to occur of the second anniversary of
the Closing and the termination of the Restricted Period (as defined in the
Stock Purchase Agreement), one or more holders may request registration of their
Shares and certain shares issued with respect to any of the Shares by way of a
dividend, stock split, recapitalization, merger or similar event (the
"Registrable Securities"). Other holders of Registrable Securities may join in
the registration. Holders of other securities of the Company having registration
rights may participate only under certain circumstances and subject to certain
limitations. Underwriters for an underwritten offering will be selected by
Selling Holders (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) of more than
50% of each class of Registrable Securities to be included in the registration,
and must be reasonably acceptable to the Company. The Company will not be
required to effect more than four registrations or, except on the determination
by the Disinterested Directors that such registrations would not harm the stock
price, more than one in any six-month period. The Company is not required to
effect a registration statement covering less than 15% of the then-outstanding
Registrable Securities. The Company will pay all expenses in connection with the
first two such registrations and the holders of Registrable Securities to be
included in the offering and the Company will pay all expenses for the latter
two pro rata according to the number of Registrable Securities to be included in
the offering. If the Company proposes to register any Common Stock (except for
registration on Form S-4 or Form S-8), the holders of Registrable Securities
will have the opportunity to request inclusion of their Registrable Securities
in such registra tion on a pro rata basis with holders who have existing
registration rights. The Company will pay all expenses in connection with such
registrations.
The Company has generally agreed to use it best efforts to effect such
registrations within 90 days after the period within which requests for
registration may be given to
<PAGE>
SCHEDULE 13D
CUSIP No. 72813P 100 Page 22 of 26 Pages
----------
the Company. The Company has also agreed to enter into an underwriting agreement
on customary terms in the case of an underwritten requested registration, and to
use its best efforts to arrange for the underwriters to include requesting
holders of Registrable Securities if the Company proposes to register securities
in an underwritten offering. The Company has the right, in the case of a
requested registration, to postpone the filing of any registration statement for
a reasonable period, not to exceed 90 days, if in its reasonable judgment such
registration would interfere with any financing, acquisition, corporate
reorganization or other material transaction.
The Company has agreed to indemnify each seller of Registrable
Securities covered by a registration statement and each underwriter in the
offering or sale of such Securi ties and their respective directors, officers,
partners, agents and affiliates, against certain liabilities, including
liabilities under the Securities Act.
Securities Agreement
The Securities Agreement, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 3
hereto and is incorporated herein by reference, provides for the shared voting
and dispositive power over the Shares between HWHV and Phemus. This section is
qualified in its entirety by reference to the Securities Agreement.
By-Laws Amendment
The Company's stockholders have approved an amendment to the Company's
By-Laws (the "By-Laws Amendment"), effective only until the date on which no
party is contractu ally obligated to vote for nominees for director under the
Stock Purchase Agreement. See Stock Purchase Agreement; Voting of Shares." The
By-Laws Amendment amends the Company's By-Laws to provide that:
(i) stockholder nominations for director must be made by written
notice, containing certain information, to the Secretary of the Company within
ten days after notice of the annual or special meeting, provided that notice
shall not be required to be given more than 60 days prior to such meeting;
(ii) the Board of Directors will be comprised of an odd number of
members from nine to fifteen as determined from time to time by the Board of
Directors;
<PAGE>

----------
(iii) nominations for a simple majority of the Board of Directors to be
elected at each annual meeting shall be made by a committee of the Board of
Directors (the "Investor Nominating Committee") consisting of Investor
Designees, and nominations for the remainder of the Board of directors shall be
made by a committee of the Board of Directors (the "Non-Investor Nominating
Committee") con sisting of members who are Non-Investor Designees, provided that
two such Non-Investor Designees must be executive officers of the Company, one
of whom will be the chief execu tive officer, and two must be Unaffiliated
Persons (as defined in the By-Law Amendment); and
(iv) any amendments to the provisions of the By- Laws described in (i)
through (iii) above shall require the affirmative vote of holders of at least
two-thirds of the outstanding Common Stock.
The above summary of the By-Laws Amendment is qualified in its entirety
by reference to the By-Laws Amendment, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 4
