(e) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, no Stockholder shall be permitted to Transfer any Shares to the Persons listed on Exhibit D hereto at any time without the written consent of the Major Stockholders, which may be given or withheld in their sole discretion.

2.2. Transfer to Permitted Transferees.

(a) Subject to the provisions of this Section 2.2, any Stockholder may Transfer any or all of the Shares held by it to any Permitted Transferee of such Stockholder. If (i) a Stockholder Transfers any or all of the Shares held by it to any Permitted Transferee of such Stockholder or (ii) if any Major Stockholder, Lampert or Crowley Transfers any or all of their Shares to a Major Stockholder or Permitted Transferee of any Major Stockholder, such Permitted Transferee shall duly execute and deliver an Assumption Agreement and the Transfer shall not be effective unless and until the Company shall have been furnished with information reasonably satisfactory to it demonstrating that such Transfer is exempt from or not subject to the provisions of Section 5 of the Securities Act and any other applicable securities laws; and provided, further, that any Stockholder that Transfers Shares to a Permitted Transferee shall remain liable for all of the obligations of such Permitted Transferee under this Agreement, unless otherwise agreed in writing by the Company and the other Stockholders.

2.3. Right of First Offer.

(a) If any Stockholder proposes to Transfer all or a portion of the Shares held by such Stockholder to a Third Party (other than as a Tagging Stockholder pursuant to the exercise of rights set forth in Section 2.4, or to any Person pursuant to Sections 2.2 or 2.6), such Stockholder (a “Selling Holder”) shall first deliver to each Named Stockholder other than the Selling Holder (each, a “Non-Selling Holder”) a written notice (the “ROFO Notice”) stating:

(i) the Selling Holder’s bona fide intention to Transfer such Shares (the “Offered Shares”);

(ii) the aggregate number of Offered Shares proposed to be Transferred (provided, that in the case of a Rule 144 Sale, the aggregate number of Offered Shares proposed to be Transferred in the ROFO Notice shall not exceed the greater of (A) 1% of the Shares outstanding shown in the most recent report or statement published by the Company and (B) the average weekly reported volume of trading in the Class A Common Stock such securities on the NASDAQ Capital Market during the four calendar weeks preceding the delivery of the ROFO Notice); and

(iii) the minimum bona fide per-share cash price for which the Selling Holder proposes to Transfer the Offered Shares (the “Offered Price”).

(b) The ROFO Notice shall (i) irrevocably offer for a period of 20 days (or, in the case of a Rule 144 Sale only, two Business Days) the Non-Selling Holders the right to purchase all, but not less than all, of the Offered Shares at the Offered Price and on other terms no less favorable to the Non-Selling Holder than those set forth in the ROFO Notice and (ii) include a description of all material terms and conditions of the proposed Transfer and a copy of any term sheets or other transaction documents in the possession of the Selling Holder containing such terms. At any time within 20 days (or, in the case of a Rule 144 Sale only, two Business Days) after the receipt of the ROFO Notice by the Non-Selling Holder, the Non-Selling Holder may accept the offer to purchase all, but not less than all, of the Offered Shares for the Offered Price by giving written notice to the Selling Holder and stating therein its intention to purchase all of such Offered Shares. If no Non-Selling Holder shall have delivered a notice in accordance this Section 2.3(b), then the Non-Selling Holder will be deemed to have elected not to accept the offer to purchase the Offered Shares specified in the ROFO Notice. If more than one Named Stockholder delivers a notice, such Named Stockholders will purchase their Pro Rata Portion of the Offered Shares.

-16-

(c) If any Non-Selling Holders shall have agreed to purchase the Offered Shares, each Non-Selling Holder shall consummate its purchase by delivering, against receipt of certificates or other instruments representing the Shares being purchased, appropriately endorsed, the aggregate purchase price to be paid by it via wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account specified by the Selling Holder not less than two Business Days before the closing date, which will be the latest of (i) 15 days after delivery of the notice by such Non-Selling Holder to the Selling Holder, (ii) two Business Days after the satisfaction of all Conditions or (iii) such other date agreed to in writing by the Selling Holder and the participating Non-Selling Holders.

(d) If the Offered Shares are not purchased by the Non-Selling Holders pursuant to Section 2.3(b), then the Selling Holder shall be permitted to Transfer all, but not less than all, of the Offered Shares to a Third Party on or prior to 110 days (other than in the case of a Rule 144 Sale, in which case the Selling Holder shall be permitted to Transfer all or any portion of the Offered Shares to a Third Party on or prior to 90 days) after the delivery of the ROFO Notice (which period may be extended if necessary to satisfy any Conditions), at a price not less than the Offered Price, for consideration at least 90% of which is in the form of cash or Marketable Securities and on other terms not materially less favorable to the Selling Holder than those terms set forth in the ROFO Notice, before the provisions of this Section 2.3 shall again be in effect with respect to such shares. To the extent that any consideration received by the Selling Holder is not in the form of cash or Marketable Securities, the imputed per share cash value of such consideration shall be determined in accordance with the provisions set forth in Exhibit E hereto.

2.4. Tag-Along Rights.

(a) If any Stockholder proposes to Transfer any Shares to any Third Party or Third Parties (any such Stockholder, the “Tag-Along Seller” and such Transfer, the “Proposed Sale”) (other than to any Person pursuant to Sections 2.2 or 2.6 of this Agreement, in a Public Offering, or in a Rule 144 Sale), the Tag-Along Seller shall (after complying with the terms of Section 2.3 of this Agreement) deliver to each of ESL, ACOF and their respective Permitted Transferees that is not a Tag-Along Seller (each, a “Tagging Stockholder”) a written notice (the “Tag-Along Notice”) at least 20 days before the date of the proposed Transfer stating:

(i) the Tag-Along Seller’s bona fide intention to Transfer such Shares;

-17-

Consideration shall be determined in accordance with Exhibit E hereto and shall be included in the Tag-Along Notice.

(b) The Tag-Along Notice shall include an undertaking that each such Tagging Stockholder shall have the right to elect to sell up to its Pro Rata Portion of such Tag-Along Shares for the Tag-Along Consideration in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 2.4.

(c) Upon delivery of a Tag-Along Notice, each Tagging Stockholder shall have the right, but not the obligation, to sell up to its Pro Rata Portion of the Offered Tag-Along Shares pursuant to the same terms and conditions as set forth in the Tag Along Notice, to each Tag-Along Transferee by sending written notice to the Tag-Along Seller not more than 15 days after the date of the Tag-Along Notice, indicating its election to sell up to its Pro Rata Portion of such Offered Tag-Along Shares in the same transaction and, if applicable, the Tagging Stockholder’s exercise of its option to receive cash in lieu of the Other Consideration. For a 70-day period following the delivery of the Tag-Along Notice (which period may be extended if necessary to satisfy any Conditions), the Tag-Along Seller shall be permitted to concurrently sell the balance of the Shares that are the subject of the Tag-Along Notice that are not sold by the Tagging Stockholders for the Tag-Along Consideration and otherwise on terms and conditions no more favorable to the Tag-Along Seller than those set forth in, the Tag-Along Notice. Neither the Tag-Along Seller nor any of its Affiliates shall receive any direct or indirect consideration in connection with the Proposed Sale (including by way of fees, consulting arrangements or a non-compete payment) other than consideration received in exchange for its Shares. After the end of the 70-day period referred to in this Section 2.4(c) (including any permitted extension thereof), the Tag-Along Seller will not effect any transaction in any Shares without commencing de novo the procedures set forth in this Section 2.4. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Tag-Along Seller shall only be permitted to Transfer such Shares if it has complied in all respects with the other terms and provisions of this ARTICLE II.

(d) To exercise its right to sell Shares to a Tag-Along Transferee pursuant to this Section 2.4, each Tagging Stockholder may be required to agree to make to the Tag-Along Transferee customary representations and warranties with respect to (i) such Tagging Stockholder’s due organization, power and authority, (ii) such Tagging Stockholder’s ownership of the Shares and ability to freely convey such Shares without liens or encumbrances (other than those that arise under federal or state securities laws or by virtue of this Agreement), customary representations regarding non-contravention of such Stockholder’s charter, bylaws or other organizational documents or material agreements of such Stockholder and the enforceable nature of such Stockholder’s obligations under the documents for such sale to which it is a party (collectively, “Stockholder’s Representations”), in each case in the form made by the Tag-Along Seller. No Tagging Stockholders shall be required to make any representations or warranties in connection with the Proposed Sale other than the Stockholder’s Representations. No Tagging Stockholder shall be liable in respect of any indemnification provided in connection with a Proposed Sale (w) in excess of its pro rata portion of the consideration received, (x) in excess of the consideration received by such Tagging Stockholder in such sale, (y) for the breach of any representations or warranties made by any other Stockholder and (z) other than on a several (and not joint) basis with other Stockholders. No Tagging Stockholder shall be required to participate

-18-

in any escrow relating to such Proposed Sale in excess of such Tagging Stockholder’s pro rata participation in the Proposed Sale (based on proceeds received).

(e) The Tag-Along Sellers will deliver or cause to be delivered to each Tagging Stockholder copies of all transaction documents relating to the Proposed Sale as the same become available.

(f) If any Tagging Stockholder exercises its rights under Section 2.4(a), the closing of the purchase of the Shares with respect to which such rights have been exercised will take place concurrently with the closing of the sale of the Tag-Along Sellers’ Shares to the Tag-Along Transferee.

2.5. [Intentionally Omitted].

2.6. Drag-Along Rights.

(a) If a Dragging Stockholder proposes to Transfer to any Third Party or Third Parties (a “Drag-Along Purchaser”) in a bona fide transaction at least 90% of the aggregate outstanding Shares, the Dragging Stockholder shall deliver written notice (a “Drag-Along Notice”) to the Company and each other Stockholder (the “Drag-Along Stockholders”) stating the proposed amount of consideration for which the Shares are proposed to be Transferred (the “Drag-Along Price”) and all other proposed terms and conditions of such sale. Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, neither Major Stockholder nor any of their Permitted Transferees may be forced to Transfer any Shares pursuant to this Section 2.6 for a price per Share that is less than the price per Share that ACOF originally paid for such Shares (appropriately adjusted to reflect any Recapitalization, including the Pre-Spin Recapitalization) unless such Major Stockholder (i) has Transferred a Share to a Third Party since the date of this Agreement and (ii) beneficially owns, in the aggregate, less than 20% of the total Shares outstanding (aggregating Shares beneficially owned by Lampert and Crowley with Shares beneficially owned by ESL for purposes of this calculation and calculated without reference to any shares of Capital Stock issued or issuable on (other than shares issued as part of the Pre-Spin Recapitalization) or after the date of this Agreement).

(b) Upon receipt of a Drag-Along Notice, the Non-Dragging Major Stockholder shall have the right, but not the obligation, to purchase all, but not less than all, of the Shares held by Stockholders for the cash price and on the terms set forth in the Drag-Along Notice. The Non-Dragging Major Stockholder may exercise this right by delivering to the Company and each other Stockholder within ten Business Days after receipt of the Drag-Along Notice irrevocable written notice of its commitment to purchase such Shares. Failure to respond to the Drag-Along Notice within such period shall constitute a decision not to exercise this right. Delivery of written notice exercising this right shall constitute a binding contract for the purchase and sale of such Shares on the terms set forth in the Drag-Along Notice. The closing of the purchase and sale of such Shares shall occur at the offices of the Company on a date agreed to in writing by the Dragging Stockholder and the Non-Dragging Major Stockholder or, if no such agreement can be reached, on a date that is the later of (i) 120 days following delivery of the Drag-Along Notice and (ii) two Business Days after the satisfaction of any Conditions.

-19-

(c) If such Shares are not purchased pursuant to Section 2.6(b), then the Dragging Stockholder shall be permitted to proceed with the Drag-Along Sale to a Third Party on or prior to 90 days after delivery of the Drag-Along Notice (which period may be extended if necessary to satisfy any Conditions), at a price no less than that specified in the Drag-Along Notice (provided that (A) at least 90% of the consideration must be in the form of cash or Marketable Securities and (B) if any portion of the consideration is in a form other than cash or Marketable Securities, the imputed value of such consideration shall be determined in accordance with Exhibit E hereto) and on other terms not less favorable to the sellers than those terms set forth in the Drag-Along Notice, before the provisions of this Section 2.6 shall again be in effect with respect to such Shares; provided, that at least five Business Days prior to entering into the final Drag-Along Documents (the “Final Documents”) the Dragging Stockholder shall give written notice (a “Final Notice”) to the Non-Dragging Major Stockholder. The Final Notice shall identify the Drag-Along Purchaser and include a copy of all Final Documents as well as all other relevant information relating to the Drag-Along Sale. Upon receipt of a Final Notice, the Non-Dragging Major Stockholder shall have the right, but not the obligation, to purchase all, but not less than all, of the Shares held by Stockholders for the price and on the terms set forth in the Final Notice; provided that at the option of the Non-Dragging Major Stockholder it may pay the purchase price solely in cash. The Non-Dragging Major Stockholder may exercise this right by delivering to the Company and each other Stockholder within ten Business Days after receipt of the Final Notice irrevocable written notice of its commitment to purchase such Shares. Failure to respond to the Final Notice within such period shall constitute a decision not to exercise this right. Delivery of written notice exercising this right shall constitute a binding contract for the purchase and sale of such Shares on the terms and conditions set forth in the Final Notice. The closing of the purchase and sale of such Shares shall occur at the offices of the Company on (i) the date that is set forth in the Final Documents, or (ii) such other date agreed to in writing by the Dragging Stockholder and the Non-Dragging Major Stockholder. If such Shares are not purchased pursuant to this Section 2.6(c), then the Dragging Stockholder shall be permitted to proceed with the Drag-Along Sale to the specified Third Party on or prior to 120 days (which period may be extended if necessary to satisfy any Conditions) after delivery of the Drag-Along Notice on the terms set forth in the Final Documents, before the provisions of this Section 2.6 shall again be in effect with respect to such Shares. Following receipt of a Final Notice from the Dragging Stockholder pursuant to this Section 2.6(c), the Non-Dragging Major Stockholder shall, without prejudice to its rights set forth herein, participate in good faith in discussions with any such Third Party, as reasonably requested by the Dragging Stockholder.

(d) Each Drag-Along Stockholder shall be required to Transfer its Shares in any Drag-Along Sale at the Drag-Along Price and upon the same terms and conditions and provisions as that of the Dragging Stockholder. Neither the Dragging Stockholder nor any of its Affiliates shall receive any direct or indirect consideration in connection with a Drag-Along Sale (including by way of fees, consulting arrangements or a non-compete payment) other than consideration received in exchange for its Shares. The Dragging Stockholders will deliver or cause to be delivered to each Drag-Along Stockholder copies of all transaction documents relating to the Drag-Along Sale (the “Drag-Along Documents”) as the same become available.

(e) In connection with the Drag-Along Sale, each of the Drag-Along Stockholders may be required to make the Stockholder’s Representations, in each case in the form made by the Dragging Stockholder. No Drag-Along Stockholder shall be required to make

-20-

any representations or warranties in connection with the Drag-Along Sale other than the Stockholder’s Representations. No Drag-Along Stockholder shall be liable in respect of any indemnification provided in connection with a Drag-Along Sale (i) in excess of its pro rata portion of the consideration received, (ii) in excess of the consideration received by such Drag-Along Stockholder in such sale, (iii) for the breach of any representation or warranties made by any other Stockholder, and (iv) other than on a several (and not joint) basis with other Stockholders. No Drag-Along Stockholder shall be required to participate in any escrow relating to such Drag-Along Sale in excess of such Drag-Along Stockholder’s pro rata participation in the Drag-Along Sale (based on proceeds received).

(f) In the event that any such Drag-Along Sale is structured as a merger, sale of substantially all the assets, consolidation or similar business combination, each Stockholder hereby agrees to vote in favor of the transaction (including acting by written consent, if requested) and take all action to waive any dissenters, appraisal or other similar rights such Stockholder may have. Each Stockholder affirms that its agreement to vote for the approval of Drag-Along Sale is given as a condition of this Agreement and as such is coupled with an interest and is irrevocable. This voting agreement shall remain in full force and effect throughout the time that this ARTICLE II is in effect.

(g) The Company shall take all actions necessary or reasonably requested to consummate any Drag-Along Sale and shall use its reasonable best efforts to assure the success thereof, including, if requested, (i) securing the services of an investment bank, selected by the Dragging Stockholder and reasonably acceptable to the Company, to assist in procuring a purchaser; (ii) preparing or assisting in the preparation of due diligence materials; (iii) making such due diligence materials available to prospective purchasers; (iv) making its directors, officers and employees available to prospective purchasers for presentations and due diligence interviews and (v) entering into customary agreements with respect to the sale.

Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, (i) if any Named Stockholder informs the Company that it does not wish to have the provisions of this Section 2.7 apply to such Named Stockholder with respect to such Potential Debt Issuance, then this Section 2.7 shall not apply to such Named Stockholder with respect to such Potential Debt Issuance and (ii) if any Named Stockholder is silent or affirms its desire to have the provisions of this Section 2.7 apply with respect to such Potential Debt Issuance, it shall be under no obligation to purchase any of the Preemptive Securities unless and until such Named Stockholder has exercised its preemptive rights pursuant to Section 2.7(b) below. Subject to the preceding two sentences, prior to any issuance by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries of (1) any securities (including any shares of Capital Stock or debt securities) or (2) any indebtedness in respect of borrowed money, including indebtedness evidenced by bonds, notes or similar instruments or by letters of credit or bankers acceptances (but, for the avoidance of doubt, not including trade payables) or any guarantees (in each case, other than Exempt Issuances), the Company shall give written notice (a “Preemptive Notice”) thereof to each Named Stockholder. The Preemptive Notice shall:

-21-

(i) specify the security, securities or other evidence of indebtedness described in Section 2.7(a)(2) above to be issued (the “Preemptive Securities”) to the proposed purchasers, the date of issuance of Preemptive Securities (which date shall not be less than 15 days after the date of delivery of the Preemptive Notice), the consideration that the Company will receive therefor and all other material terms and conditions of such issuance; and

(ii) contain an offer to sell to the Named Stockholders at the same price and for the same consideration to be paid by the proposed purchaser, the Preemptive Securities.

In the event that any such offer is accepted by any Named Stockholder, the Company shall (or shall cause such Subsidiary to) sell to such Named Stockholder, and such Named Stockholder shall purchase for the consideration and on the terms set forth in the Preemptive Notice the Preemptive Securities that such Named Stockholder has elected to purchase on the same day it issues (or would have issued) the Preemptive Securities (which day may be extended to satisfy any Conditions).

(c) Notwithstanding Section 2.7(b), during the Standstill Period, with respect to any proposed issuance of Preemptive Securities described in Section 2.7(a) that has been approved by the Board (with such approval including at least one ESL Director designated by ESL (or if no such Director has been so designated, any ESL Director)):

(i) For a period of ten Business Days following the delivery of the Preemptive Notice, ACOF shall have the sole right, by written notice to the Company, to elect to purchase all or a portion of the Preemptive Securities specified in the Preemptive Notice on the terms set forth therein;

(ii) In the event that ACOF makes such election, the Company shall (or shall cause such Subsidiary to) sell to ACOF, and ACOF shall purchase from the Company for the consideration and on the terms set forth in the Preemptive Notice, the Preemptive Securities that ACOF has elected to purchase on the same day the Company (or such Subsidiary) issues (or would have issued) the Preemptive Securities (which day may be extended to satisfy any Conditions); and

(iii) ESL shall not purchase any Preemptive Securities.

(d) The Stockholders shall in respect of any issuance of securities required to be issued pursuant to this Section 2.7 effect such increases in the authorized securities of the Company as may be necessary to permit such issuance. The Company shall comply with any applicable securities laws before issuing (or permitting any Subsidiary to issue) any securities pursuant to this Section 2.7.

(e) If the Named Stockholders do not exercise their preemptive rights pursuant to this Section 2.7, then the Company shall be permitted to proceed with the proposed

-22-

issuance of securities or other evidence of indebtedness specified in the Preemptive Notice to the extent not purchased by a Named Stockholder. The Company shall have 30 days after the expiration of the deadline to respond to the Preemptive Notice to consummate such proposed issuance, at a price not less than the price specified in the Preemptive Notice and on other terms not less favorable to the Company than those terms set forth in the Preemptive Notice, before the provisions of this Section 2.7 shall again be in effect with respect to any such proposed issuance.

2.8. Capital Notice.

(a) If (i) the Company reasonably and in good faith believes that a Default has or is reasonably likely to occur and (ii) such Default can be cured or avoided in the manner specified in this Section 2.8, the Company shall give written notice (the “Capital Notice”) thereof to each Major Stockholder, specifying the amount of capital necessary to cure or avoid such default (the “Capital Amount”). For a period of ten Business Days following the delivery of such Capital Notice, each Major Stockholder (or its designee) shall be entitled, by written notice to the Company, to elect to purchase Notes from the Company for a total purchase price equaling the Capital Amount. To the extent that a Major Stockholder (or its designee) elects to purchase Notes, such Major Stockholder (or its designee) shall be entitled to purchase its Pro Rata Portion of the Notes.

(b) If any Major Stockholder (or its designee) shall have agreed to purchase Notes pursuant to this Section 2.8, such Major Stockholder (or its designee) shall consummate its purchase by delivering, against receipt of the Notes being purchased, appropriately issued by the Company, the aggregate purchase price to be paid by it via wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account specified by the Company not less than two Business Days before the closing date, which will be the latest of (i) 15 days after such Major Stockholder has notified the Company of its intent to purchase such Notes, (ii) two Business Days after the satisfaction of all Conditions and (iii) such other date agreed to in writing by such Major Stockholder and the Company.

(c) The Company shall take all actions necessary or reasonably requested to consummate any sale of Notes pursuant to this Section 2.8 and shall use its reasonable best efforts to assure the success thereof, including entering into customary agreements with respect to such sale.

(i) None of the Company, ESL, Lampert nor Crowley shall, nor shall they permit any of their respective Affiliates to, acquire, offer to acquire, or agree to acquire, directly or indirectly, by purchase or otherwise, any securities of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or indirect rights or options to acquire any Capital Stock or other securities of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, other than purchases by or for the benefit of any Holdings’ employee benefit plan;

-23-

(ii) ACOF may purchase Shares or other securities of the Company by any means, whether by open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions or otherwise, subject only to applicable Law; and

(iii) None of the Company, ESL, Lampert nor Crowley shall, nor shall they permit any of their respective Affiliates to, knowingly or intentionally hinder or inhibit ACOF from making any of the purchases described in Section 2.10(a)(ii) (including by failing, or causing the Company to fail, to disclose material non-public information in a timely manner); provided, however, that the Company publicly disclosing or failing to publicly disclose material non-public information shall not be deemed a breach of its obligations under this Section 2.10(a)(iii) solely to the extent that a majority of the Outside Directors, excluding Outside Directors that are (i) directors, officers or employees of ESL or its Affiliates; or (ii) not Independent of ESL, Lampert and Crowley and each of their respective Affiliates, concludes in good faith, after consultation with the Company’s independent outside legal advisor, that failure to take such actions would result in a violation of the Board’s fiduciary responsibilities to its stockholders under applicable Law.

(b) Following the Standstill Period, ACOF, ESL, Lampert and Crowley shall not, and shall use their reasonable best efforts to cause their respective Affiliates (it being understood and agreed that for purposes of this Section 2.10(b), the Company and its Subsidiaries shall not be deemed to be “Affiliates” of ESL, Lampert or Crowley) not to, seek to purchase any shares of Capital Stock of the Company or its Subsidiaries (the “Purchase Shares”) from a Third Party (it being understood and agreed that for purposes of this Section 2.10(b), the Company and its Subsidiaries shall not be deemed to be a “Third Party”) unless the Person seeking to make such purchase (the “Initiating Holder”), complies with the terms of this Section 2.10(b).

(i) Promptly upon reaching an agreement to purchase (the “Purchase Transaction”) the Purchase Shares from a Third Party (the “Seller”), the Initiating Holder shall notify the Designated Contact of each of the Secondary Holder of the Purchase Transaction in the manner specified on Exhibit B hereto (the “Purchase Notice”). The Purchase Notice shall include:

(A) the aggregate number of Purchase Shares;

(B) the per share consideration for which such Shares may be purchased (the “Stated Price”), which price shall include a pro rata share of any expenses incurred in the Purchase Transaction; provided that if the Seller has indicated that it will require all or any portion consideration in a form other than cash or Marketable Securities, the imputed per share value of such consideration shall be determined in accordance with Exhibit E hereto and shall be included in the Purchase Notice;

-24-

(D) any other material terms, including any fees payable with respect to such Purchase Transaction.

(ii) For a period of 24 hours following the delivery of the Purchase Notice (the “Secondary Holder Election Period”), the Secondary Holder shall have the right, but not the obligation, to elect to participate in the Purchase Transaction for up to 50% of the Purchase Shares by delivery of notice indicating such election (the “Purchase Election”) to the Designated Contact of the Initiating Holder in the manner specified on Exhibit B hereto. Each Purchase Election shall specify the extent to which the Secondary Holder will participate in the Purchase Transaction and shall be a binding obligation of the Secondary Holder to participate in the Purchase Transaction on the terms set forth in the Purchase Notice.

(iii) If the Secondary Holder duly elects to participate in the Purchase Transaction pursuant to this Section 2.10(b):

(A) The Initiating Holder and the Secondary Holder shall each purchase their respective portions of the Purchase Shares from the Seller for the consideration and on the terms set forth in the Purchase Notice and the Purchase Election; and

(B) the Initiating Holder will deliver or cause to be delivered to the Secondary Holder copies of all transaction documents relating to the Purchase Transaction as the same become available.

(iv) If the Secondary Holder does not duly exercise its participation rights pursuant to this Section 2.10(b), then the Initiating Holder shall have the right, but not the obligation, to purchase all or any portion of the Purchase Shares for the consideration and on the terms set forth in the Purchase Notice so long as such purchase is consummated within 20 Business Days of the delivery of the Purchase Notice.

(c) During the Standstill Period, neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries shall repurchase, redeem, retire or otherwise acquire any shares of Capital Stock of the Company or its Subsidiaries without the prior written consent of each Major Stockholder.

(d) Each of ESL, ACOF and the Company shall comply with applicable securities laws in connection with the provisions of this Section 2.10.

(a) Directors of the Company shall be elected annually. Pursuant to Section B of Article FIFTH of the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation, subject to the rights of the holders of any Preferred Stock then outstanding to elect additional directors under specified circumstances, the Board shall be comprised of no more than ten members for so long as the holders of Class B Common Stock and Class C Common Stock have the right to elect at least

one Class B/C Director pursuant to Section C(i)(b) of Article FOURTH of the Certificate of Incorporation. For so long as the holders of the Class A Common Stock have the right to elect Class A Directors and Class A Outside Directors pursuant to Section C(i)(b) of Article FOURTH of the Certificate of Incorporation, holders of the shares of Class A Common Stock shall elect the Class A Directors and Class A Outside Directors pursuant to Section C(i)(b) of Article FOURTH of the Certificate of Incorporation; provided that the Stockholders holding Class A Common Stock shall vote their shares to elect at least three Class A Outside Directors. For so long as the holders of the Class B Common Stock and Class C Common Stock have the right to elect at least one Class B/C Director pursuant to Section C(i)(b) of Article FOURTH of the Certificate of Incorporation, holders of the shares of Class B Common Stock and Class C Common Stock shall elect the Class B/C Directors pursuant to Section C(i)(b) of Article FOURTH of the Certificate of Incorporation.

(b) The Stockholders who are party to this Agreement shall not vote their Shares for the removal, with or without cause, of a Director unless such removal has been approved, (i) with respect to a Class A Director or Class A Outside Director, by the affirmative vote (including, for the avoidance of doubt, at a stockholder meeting or by written consent) of the holders of a majority of the voting power of the Class A Common Stock or (ii) with respect to a Class B/C Director, by the affirmative vote (including, for the avoidance of doubt, at a stockholder meeting or by written consent) of the holders of a majority of the voting power of the Class C Common Stock. Vacancies on the Board resulting from death, resignation, removal from office or other cause shall be filled pursuant to Section F of Article FIFTH of the Certificate of Incorporation, provided, that if upon the departure of a Class A Director or Class A Outside Director, the Board does or would have fewer than three Class A Outside Directors, than such replacement Director must be a Class A Outside Director; and provided, further, that the vote of Chairman of the Board (regardless of whether or not the Chairman of the Board is a Class A Director, a Class A Outside Director or a Class B/C Director) shall serve as the deciding vote in the event of a tie vote of Class A Directors and Class A Outside Directors with regard to the selection of a replacement Class A Director or Class A Outside Director.

(c) The Company will pay all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Directors in connection with their participation in meetings of the Board (and committees thereof) and the boards of directors (or equivalent managing bodies) (and committees thereof) of the Subsidiaries of the Company. Other than Outside Directors, the Directors will not receive any compensation for serving on the Board (and committees thereof) or on the boards of directors (or equivalent managing bodies) (and committees thereof) of the Subsidiaries of the Company.

(d) The Board will establish an audit committee, a compensation committee and a nominating and corporate governance committee. Subject to the applicable rules of the primary securities exchange on which the Shares are then listed and subject to compliance with such committee’s charter, the compensation committee and the nominating and governance committee will each include at least (i) one Class B/C Director, so long as ACOF, together with its Affiliates and Permitted Transferees, beneficially owns shares of Class B Common Stock and Class C Common Stock representing at least 5% of the total Shares outstanding (calculated without reference to any shares of Capital Stock issued or issuable on (other than shares issued as part of the Pre-Spin Recapitalization) or after the date of this Agreement), and (ii) one Class A

-26-

Director that is not the Chief Executive Officer (the “ESL Director”), so long as ESL, together with its Affiliates and Permitted Transferees, beneficially owns Shares representing at least 5% of the total Shares outstanding (calculated without reference to any shares of Capital Stock issued or issuable on (other than shares issued as part of the Pre-Spin Recapitalization) or after the date of this Agreement). The board of directors (or equivalent managing bodies) of each Subsidiary of the Company shall at any given time either be comprised in the same manner as the Board is then comprised or comprised in a manner reasonably acceptable to both ACOF and ESL.

(e) For so long as there is at least one Class B/C Director on the Board, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, all Actions or claims against Holdings or Holdings’ Affiliates in respect of the rights of the Company or its Subsidiaries under the Ancillary Agreements or Section 8.2 (and any other provision thereof to the extent it relates to the enforcement of such section) of the Subscription Agreement or the rights of the Company or its Subsidiaries thereunder (including their rights to terminate or amend) shall be approved (and controlled) by the Class B/C Directors.

3.2. Observer Rights.

(a) ACOF shall have the right to designate an observer to the Board (the “ACOF Observer”) so long as ACOF, together with its Affiliates and Permitted Transferees, beneficially owns less than 5% and greater than 2% of the total Shares outstanding (calculated without reference to any shares of Capital Stock issued or issuable on (other than shares issued as part of the Pre-Spin Recapitalization) or after the date of this Agreement). The ACOF Observer shall be permitted to attend each meeting of the Board or any committee thereof (including any executive sessions of the Board), but will not be entitled to vote on any matter submitted to the Board or such committee thereof. Subject to any documents subject (as determined in good faith by the Board) to attorney/client privilege, the ACOF Observer shall be provided with the same notice and information given to Directors pursuant to Section 3.3(c).

(b) ESL shall have the right to designate an observer to the Board (the “ESL Observer”) so long as ESL, together with its Affiliates and Permitted Transferees, beneficially owns less than 5% and greater than 2% of the total Shares outstanding (calculated without reference to any shares of Capital Stock issued or issuable on (other than shares issued as part of the Pre-Spin Recapitalization) or after the date of this Agreement). The ESL Observer shall be permitted to attend each meeting of the Board or any committee thereof (including any executive sessions of the Board), but will not be entitled to vote on any matter submitted to the Board or such committee thereof. Subject to any documents subject (as determined in good faith by the Board) to attorney/client privilege, the ESL Observer shall be provided with the same notice and information given to Directors pursuant to Section 3.3(c).

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if the Board or any committee thereof determines in good faith that exclusion of an ACOF Observer or an ESL Observer is reasonably necessary in order (i) to preserve the attorney/client privilege of the Company and/or its Subsidiaries (ii) to avoid disclosure that is prohibited by an agreement with a third party or that might cause information to no longer be a trade secret of the Company and/or one of its Subsidiaries or (iii) to avoid a conflict of interest based on actual or expressly

-27-

contemplated claims, defenses, disputes or transactions between the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, on the one hand, and ACOF, ESL or any of their respective Affiliates, on the other hand, then such ACOF Observer or ESL Observer (as applicable) shall be excluded from the portions of a meeting of the Board or a committee thereof relating to such matter and shall not be provided any information that Directors otherwise receive with respect to such matter.

3.3. Actions by the Board of Directors.

(a) The Stockholders and the Company shall use their reasonable best efforts to take all actions necessary (including amending the Certificate of Incorporation or By-laws of the Company, if necessary) to provide that, for so long as this Agreement is in effect, except with respect to the actions set forth in Section 3.1(e), a quorum for any meeting of the Board shall require the presence of (i) directors constituting at least a majority of the entire Board, (ii) at least one ESL Director designated by ESL (or if no such Director has been so designated, any ESL Director), so long as ESL, together with its Affiliates and Permitted Transferees, beneficially owns at least 5% of the total Shares outstanding (calculated without reference to any shares of Capital Stock issued or issuable on (other than shares issued as part of the Pre-Spin Recapitalization) or after the date of this Agreement), and (iii) at least one Class B/C Director designated by ACOF (or if no such Director has been so designated, any Class B/C Director), so long as ACOF, together with its Affiliates and Permitted Transferees, beneficially owns shares of Class B Common Stock and Class C Common Stock representing at least 5% of the total Shares outstanding (calculated without reference to any shares of Capital Stock issued or issuable on (other than shares issued as part of the Pre-Spin Recapitalization) or after the date of this Agreement). Unless agreed to by unanimous consent of the Board or a committee thereof in writing, subject to applicable Law, no action by the Board or any committee thereof, as applicable, will be valid unless approved by a majority of the Directors present at a meeting properly convened at which a quorum is present.

(b) The Company shall not (and shall not permit any of its Subsidiaries to) directly or indirectly take any of the actions set forth in (1) items (i) through (xi) below without the affirmative vote of at least one Class B/C Director designated by ACOF (or if no such Director has been so designated, any Class B/C Director), so long as ACOF, together with its Affiliates and Permitted Transferees, beneficially owns shares of Class B Common Stock and Class C Common Stock representing at least 15% of the total Shares outstanding (calculated without reference to any shares of Capital Stock issued or issuable on (other than shares issued as part of the Pre-Spin Recapitalization) or after the date of this Agreement), and (2) items (v), (ix), and (x) below without the affirmative vote of at least one ESL Director designated by ESL (or if no such Director has been so designated, any ESL Director), so long as ESL, together with its Affiliates and Permitted Transferees, beneficially owns at least 15% of the total Shares outstanding (calculated without reference to any shares of Capital Stock issued or issuable on (other than shares issued as part of the Pre-Spin Recapitalization) or after the date of this Agreement):

(i) voluntarily commence (or consent to the filing of) any proceeding or file any petition seeking relief under Title 11 of the United States Code as now constituted or hereafter amended, or any other federal, state or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency or similar Law or make a general assignment for the benefit of creditors;

(vii) other than as contemplated by the Ancillary Agreements in effect at the time of such transaction, enter into, directly or indirectly, any Affiliate Transaction or series of Affiliate Transactions;

(xi) enter into any Contract to do any of the foregoing.

(i) Meetings of the Board may be held at any time upon the call of at least two Directors by oral, telephonic, telegraphic, facsimile or e-mail notice duly given or sent at least one day, or by written notice sent by express mail at least three days,

(ii) A reasonably detailed agenda shall be supplied to each Director reasonably in advance of each meeting of the Board, together with other appropriate documentation with respect to agenda items calling for Board action, to inform adequately Directors regarding matters to come before the Board.

(iii) The Company shall cause the Board to hold Board meetings at least as frequently as once per quarter.

(d) The Stockholders shall upon request take all action provided for under the terms of the Shares held by them to cause the certificate of incorporation and bylaws or comparable governing documents of each Subsidiary of the Company to be amended to require the prior approval of the Board of any actions of the Subsidiary that, if made by the Company, would require the approval of the Board under the Certificate of Incorporation or the By-laws of the Company or under this Agreement.

3.4. Voting of Shares; Action by the Company. At any annual or special meeting of stockholders of the Company or in any written consent executed in lieu of such a meeting of stockholders, the Stockholders shall take all other action provided for under the terms of the Shares held by them, including by way of voting their Shares, to give effect to the agreements contained in this Agreement, the Ancillary Agreements (to the extent a party thereto) and the Certificate of Incorporation. In order to effectuate the provisions of this ARTICLE III, each Stockholder hereby agrees that when any action or vote is required to be taken by such Stockholder pursuant to this Agreement, the Ancillary Agreements (to the extent a party thereto) or the Certificate of Incorporation, such Stockholder shall use his or its reasonable best efforts to call, or cause the appropriate officers and directors of the Company to call, a special or annual meeting of stockholders of the Company, as the case may be, or execute or cause to be executed a consent in writing in lieu of any such meetings pursuant to applicable provisions of the Delaware General Corporation Law.

If the Budget is not approved for any calendar year prior to March 1 of such year in accordance with Section 3.3, then the Budget for that calendar year shall be the Budget from the prior calendar year (excluding the prior year’s extraordinary and nonrecurring items, but including any contractually obligated or legally required commitments or expenditures for the prior year in the plan) adjusted (i) by a 5% increase in all fixed expenses and

-30-

(ii) for all variable expenses, such as utilities and insurance, in accordance with the projected variances in their bases and contractual commitments in accordance with their terms.

ARTICLE IV

REGISTRATION RIGHTS

4.1. Piggyback Rights.

(a) If the Company at any time or from time to time proposes to register any of the Shares under the Securities Act (other than a registration on Form S-4 or S-8, or any successor or other forms promulgated for similar purposes), whether or not for sale for its own account, it will, at each such time, give prompt written notice to each holder of Registrable Securities of its intention to do so and of such holders’ rights under this Section 4.1 at least 30 days before the anticipated effective date of the registration statement filed in connection with such registration (or in the case of a Demand Request, within ten Business Days after receipt of a Demand Request).

(b) Upon the written request of any holder of Registrable Securities made within 14 days after the receipt of any such notice (which request shall specify the number of Registrable Securities intended to be disposed of by such holder), the Company will use its reasonable best efforts to effect the registration under the Securities Act of all Registrable Securities which the holders of Registrable Securities have so requested to be registered; provided that

(i) 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 proceed with the proposed registration of the securities to be sold by it, the Company will give written notice of such determination to the holders of Registrable Securities and, thereupon, the Company shall be relieved of its obligation to register any Registrable Securities in connection with such registration (but not from its obligation to pay the Registration Expenses incurred in connection therewith), and

(ii) if such registration involves an underwritten offering, the holders of Registrable Securities requesting to be included in the registration shall sell their Registrable Securities to the underwriters selected by the Company, reasonably acceptable to the Major Stockholders, on the same terms and conditions as apply to the Company or such other Person as is selling securities in such registration with, in the case of a combined primary and secondary offering, such differences, including any with respect to indemnification and liability insurance, as may be customary or appropriate in combined primary and secondary offerings.

(c) If a registration requested pursuant to this Section 4.1 involves an underwritten Public Offering, any holder of Registrable Securities requesting to be included in such registration may elect, in writing prior to the effective date of the registration statement filed in connection with such registration, not to register all or any portion of such securities in connection with such registration. No registration effected under this Section 4.1 shall relieve

-31-

the Company of its obligation to effect any registration upon demand under Section 4.2 or Section 4.3.

(d) The Company will pay all Registration Expenses in connection with each registration of Registrable Securities requested pursuant to this Section 4.1.

(e) If a registration pursuant to this Section 4.1 involves an underwritten offering and the managing underwriter advises the Company in writing that, in its opinion, the number of Registrable Securities and other securities requested to be included in such registration exceeds the number which can be sold in such offering, so as to be reasonably likely to have an adverse effect on the price, timing or distribution of the securities offered in such offering, then the Company will include in such registration

(i) first, 100% of the securities, if any, the Company proposes to sell for its own account, and

(ii) second, such number of additional Registrable Securities requested to be included in such registration which, in the opinion of such managing underwriter, can be sold without having the adverse effect referred to above, which number of Registrable Securities shall be allocated pro rata among all such requesting holders of Registrable Securities, based on the number of Registrable Securities requested to be included in such registration.

4.2. Demand Registration and Shelf Registration.

(a) At any time after the date hereof, upon the written request (a “Demand Request”) of a Major Stockholder (the “Demand Holder”) requesting that the Company effect the registration under the Securities Act of all or part of such Demand Holder’s Registrable Securities and specifying the amount and intended method of disposition thereof, the Company will promptly give written notice of such Demand Request to the other holders of Registrable Securities within 15 Business Days after receipt of a Demand Request and thereupon will, as expeditiously as possible, file a registration statement to effect the registration under the Securities Act of:

(i) such Registrable Securities which the Company has been so requested to register by the Demand Holder; and

(ii) the Registrable Securities of other holders of Registrable Securities which the Company has been requested to register pursuant to Section 4.1 above;

all to the extent necessary to permit the disposition (in accordance with the intended method thereof as aforesaid) of the Registrable Securities; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to effect a Demand Request under this Section 4.2(a) on more than four occasions for each Major Stockholder.

(b) The Company shall not be obligated to file a registration statement relating to any registration request under Section 4.2(a):

-32-

(i) within a period of 180 days (or such lesser period as the managing underwriters in an underwritten offering may permit) after the effective date of any other registration statement relating to any registration request under this Section 4.2 or relating to any registration effected under Section 4.1;

(ii) if with respect thereto the managing underwriter, the SEC, the Securities Act, or the form on which the registration statement is to be filed, would require the conduct of an audit other than the regular audit conducted by the Company at the end of its fiscal year, in which case the filing may be delayed until the completion of such audit (and the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause such audit to be completed expeditiously and without unreasonable delay);

(iii) if the Company is in possession of material non-public information and the Board determines in good faith that disclosure of such information would not be in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders, in which case the filing of the registration statement may be delayed until the earlier of the second Business Day after such conditions shall have ceased to exist and the 90th day after receipt by the Company of the Demand Request from the Demand Holder, as the case may be, to register Registrable Securities under Section 4.2; provided, that such right to delay such request shall be exercised by the Company not more than once in any 12-month period; or

(iv) if the Company is entitled to use a registration statement on Form S-3 (or any successor to Form S-3) or any similar short-form registration statement to register shares in a public offering of securities.

(c) The Company will pay all Registration Expenses in connection with each registration of Registrable Securities requested pursuant to this Section 4.2.

(d) A registration requested pursuant to this ARTICLE IV will not be deemed to have been effected unless it has become effective; provided that, if, within 180 days after it has become effective, the offering of Registrable Securities pursuant to such registration is interfered with by any stop order, injunction or other order or requirement of the SEC or other governmental agency or court, then such registration will be deemed not to have been effected.

(e) If a requested registration pursuant to this Section 4.2 involves an underwritten offering and regardless of whether the Company is registering any securities therein, the Major Stockholder requesting to include the largest number of Registrable Securities in such registration shall have the right to select the lead managing underwriter and the other Major Stockholder shall have the right to select a co-lead managing underwriter, in each case reasonably acceptable to the Company.

(f) If a requested registration pursuant to this Section 4.2 involves an underwritten offering and the managing underwriter advises the Company in writing that, in its opinion, the number of Registrable Securities requested to be included in such registration exceeds the number which can be sold in such offering, so as to be reasonably likely to have an adverse effect on the price, timing or distribution of the securities offered in such offering, then the Company will include in such registration such number of Registrable Securities requested to

-33-

be included in such registration which, in the opinion of such managing underwriter, can be sold without having the adverse effect referred to above, which number shall be allocated (i) 100% to the number of Registrable Securities requested to be registered by the Major Stockholders (which number of Registrable Securities shall be allocated pro rata among all the Major Stockholders, based on their Pro Rata Portions) and (ii) second, pro rata among the Company and all other requesting holders of Registrable Securities based on the relative number of Registrable Securities then held by each such requesting holder of Registrable Securities, and in the case of the Company, the number of securities it proposes to sell for its own account.

(g) The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to obtain and maintain eligibility for use of Form S-3 (or any successor form thereto) for the registration of the resale of Registrable Securities, including by timely filing all reports with the SEC and meeting the other requirements of the Exchange Act. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein other than the last sentence of this Section 4.2(g), promptly upon obtaining eligibility for use of Form S-3 (or any successor form thereto), the Company shall file a shelf registration statement (the “Shelf Registration Statement”) under the Securities Act to effect the registration under the Securities Act of resales to be made, on a delayed or continuous basis, of all Registrable Securities, including shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Class C Common Stock. Except as otherwise provided herein, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to (i) cause the Shelf Registration Statement to be declared effective by the SEC as soon as practicable thereafter, and (ii) keep the Shelf Registration Statement continuously effective and, except as otherwise expressly permitted herein, not to suspend use of the prospectus included therein in order to permit the prospectus included therein to be usable by holders of Class B Common Stock and Class C Common Stock until there are no longer any Registrable Securities. A Shelf Registration Statement filed pursuant to this Section 4.2(g) or the use thereof for any sale other than pursuant to an underwritten offering shall not count as the use of a Demand Request. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not be obligated to file a Shelf Registration Statement or maintain its effectiveness under this Section 4.2(g) if the Company is in possession of material non-public information and the Board determines in good faith that disclosure of such information would not be in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders, in which case the filing of the Shelf Registration Statement or maintenance of effectiveness may be delayed or suspended until the earlier of the second Business Day after such conditions shall have ceased to exist and the 90th day after such determination by the Board; provided, that the right set forth in this sentence shall be exercised by the Company not more than once in any 12-month period.

4.3. Form S-3 Registration. Subject to all applicable Laws, if the Company receives from a Demand Holder a written request or requests that the Company effect a registration on Form S-3 (or any successor to Form S-3) and any related qualification or compliance with respect to all or a part of the Registrable Securities owned by such Demand Holder, the Company shall:

(a) promptly give notice of the proposed registration, and any related qualification or compliance, to the other holders of Registrable Securities; and

(b) as expeditiously as possible, effect such registration and all such qualifications and compliances as may be reasonably requested to permit or facilitate the sale and

-34-

distribution of all or such portion of such Demand Holder’s Registrable Securities as are specified in such request, together with all or such portion of the Registrable Securities of any other Stockholders joining in such request as are specified in a written request given within 15 days after receipt of such written notice from the Company; provided, however, that the Company shall not be obligated to effect any such registration, qualification or compliance pursuant to this Section 4.3:

(i) if Form S-3 (or any successor form) is not available for such offering by the Stockholders; or

(ii) if the Stockholders propose to sell Registrable Securities at an aggregate price to the public of less than $1,000,000; or

(iii) if the Company shall furnish to the Stockholders a certificate stating that in the good faith judgment of the Board, it would not be in the best interests of the Company for such Form S-3 Registration to be effected at such time, in which event the Company shall have the right to delay the filing of the Form S-3 registration statement until the earlier of the second Business Day after such conditions shall have ceased to exist and 90 days after receipt of the request of a Demand Holder or such Permitted Transferee of such Demand Holder under this Section 4.3; provided, that such right to delay a request shall be exercised by the Company not more than once in any 12-month period; or

(iv) if the Company has, within the 12-month period preceding the date of such request, already effected two registrations on Form S-3 for such Demand Holder pursuant to this Section 4.3.

(c) Registrations effected pursuant to this Section 4.3 shall not be counted as demands for registration or registrations effected pursuant to Section 4.2.

(d) The Company will pay all Registration Expenses in connection with each registration of Registrable Securities requested pursuant to this Section 4.3.

4.4. Revocation of Registration Statement.

(a) Holders of a majority in number of the Registrable Securities to be included in a registration statement pursuant to the Demand Request may, at any time prior to the effective date of the registration statement relating to such Demand Request revoke such request by providing a written notice thereof to the Company (the “Revoking Holders”) and only if they comply with this Section 4.4(a). Subject to Section 4.4(b), the Revoking Holders shall reimburse the Company for all its reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in the preparation, filing and processing of the registration statement. If pursuant to the terms of this Section 4.4(a), the Revoking Holders reimburse the Company for its reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in the preparation, filing and processing of any registration statement requested and subsequently revoked by such Revoking Holders or if the Revoking Holders are not required to pay such expenses pursuant to Section 4.4(b), the attempted registration by such requested and subsequently revoked registration statement shall not be deemed to be a demand registration.

4.7. Indemnification.

-39-

(a) In the event of any registration of any securities of the Company under the Securities Act pursuant to Section 4.1, 4.2 or 4.3, the Company hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless, to the extent permitted by Law, the sellers of any Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement (each a “Covered Selling Holder”), each Affiliate of such Covered Selling Holder and their respective former and current directors and officers, members or general and limited partners (and the directors, officers, employees, Affiliates and controlling Persons of any of the foregoing), 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 Covered Selling Holder or any such underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act (collectively, the “Indemnified Parties”), against any and all losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, and expenses to which such Indemnified Party may become subject under the Securities Act, common law or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof, whether or not such Indemnified Party is a party thereto) arise out of or are based upon (i) 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, final or summary prospectus contained therein, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or (ii) 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, in light of the circumstances when they were made, and the Company will reimburse such Indemnified Party for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by it in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, liability, action or proceeding; provided that the Company will not be liable to any Indemnified Party 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 any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in such registration statement, in any such preliminary, final or summary prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto in reliance upon and in conformity with written information with respect to such Indemnified Party furnished to the Company by such Indemnified Party expressly for use in the preparation thereof. Such indemnity will remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of such Covered Selling Holder or any Indemnified Party and will survive the Transfer of such securities by such Covered Selling Holder; provided, further, that the foregoing indemnity agreement with respect to any preliminary prospectus shall not inure to the benefit of any Stockholder from whom the Person asserting such loss, claim, damage or liability purchased the securities if it is determined that such loss, claim, damage or liability was caused by such Stockholder’s failure to deliver to such Stockholder’s immediate purchaser a current copy of the prospectus (if the current copy of the prospectus was required by applicable Law to be so delivered) after the Company has timely furnished such Stockholder with a sufficient number of copies of such prospectus.

(b) The Company may require, as a condition to including any Registrable Securities in any registration statement filed in accordance with Section 4.1, 4.2 or 4.3 that the Company shall have received an undertaking reasonably satisfactory to it from the Covered Selling Holder of such Registrable Securities or any prospective underwriter to indemnify and hold harmless (in the same manner and to the same extent as set forth in Section 4.7(a)) the Company, all other Covered Selling Holders or any prospective underwriter, as the case may be, and any of their respective Affiliates, directors, officers and controlling Persons, with respect to any untrue statement in or omission from such registration statement, any preliminary, final or summary prospectus contained therein, or any amendment or supplement, if such untrue

-40-

statement or omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information with respect to such Covered Selling Holder or underwriter furnished to the Company by such Covered Selling Holder or underwriter expressly for use in the preparation of such registration statement, preliminary, final or summary prospectus or amendment or supplement, or a document incorporated by reference into any of the foregoing. Such indemnity will remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Company or any of the Covered Selling Holders, or any of their respective Affiliates, directors, officers or controlling Persons and will survive the Transfer of such securities by such Covered Selling Holder.

(c) Promptly after receipt by an Indemnified Party hereunder of written notice of the commencement of any action or proceeding with respect to which a claim for indemnification may be made pursuant to this Section 4.7, 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 that the failure of the Indemnified Party to give notice as provided herein will not relieve the indemnifying party of its obligations under Section 4.7(a) or 4.7(b), except to the extent that the indemnifying party is actually prejudiced by such failure to give notice. In case any such action is brought against an Indemnified Party, unless in such Indemnified Party’s reasonable judgment a conflict of interest between such Indemnified Party and indemnifying parties may exist in respect of such claim, the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate in and to assume the defense thereof, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified to the extent that it may wish, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Party, and after notice from the indemnifying party to such Indemnified Party of its election so to assume the defense thereof, the indemnifying party will not be liable to such Indemnified Party for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by the latter in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation. If, in such Indemnified Party’s reasonable judgment, having common counsel would result in a conflict of interest between the interests of such indemnified and indemnifying parties, then such Indemnified Party may employ separate counsel reasonably acceptable to the indemnifying party to represent or defend such Indemnified Party in such action, it being understood, however, that the indemnifying party will not be liable for the reasonable fees and expenses of more than one separate firm of attorneys at any time for all such Indemnified Parties in such action. No indemnifying party will 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 of such claim or litigation.

(d) If the indemnification provided for hereunder from the indemnifying party is unavailable to an Indemnified Party hereunder in respect of any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses referred to herein, then the indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party and Indemnified Parties in connection with the actions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of such indemnifying party and Indemnified Parties shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any action in question, including any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact, has been made by, or relates

-41-

to information supplied by, such indemnifying party or Indemnified Parties, and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such action. The amount paid or payable by a party under this Section 4.7(d) as a result of the losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses referred to above shall be deemed to include any legal or other fees or expenses reasonably incurred by such party in connection with any investigation or proceeding.

The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 4.7(d) were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph. 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.

(e) Indemnification similar to that specified in this Section 4.7 (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 Law or with any governmental entity other than as required by the Securities Act.

(f) The obligations of the parties under this Section 4.7 will be in addition to any liability which any party may otherwise have to any other party.

1. Maturity. Debtor shall repay the unpaid principal in full, together with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, on the earlier of (the “Repayment Date”) (a) [Insert Date that is 10 years from date of this Promissory Note]; (b) consummation of a Public Offering (as such term is defined in the Second Amended and Restated Stockholders’ Agreement among Debtor, ESL Investments, Inc., Edward S. Lampert, William C. Crowley and ACOF I LLC, dated as of , (the “Stockholders’ Agreement”)); and (c) any refinancing, refunding or replacement of the indebtedness existing as of the date of the Stockholders’ Agreement pursuant to the Debtor’s Senior Secured Term Loan Agreement, dated as of December 2006, among the Debtor, Orchard Supply Hardware LLC, certain other subsidiaries of the Debtor, JP Morgan Chase Bank, N.A. as Administrative Agent, the lenders from time to time party thereto and certain other parties signatory thereto (as in effect on the date of the Stockholders’ Agreement). All payments under this Note shall be paid in lawful money of the United States in immediately available funds. All payments on any promissory note (collectively, the “Notes”) issued by Debtor pursuant to Section 2.8 of the Agreement shall be applied pro rata to each of the Notes (including the Note) based upon the principal amount thereof outstanding on the date of payment and shall be applied first against costs of collection (if any), then against accrued and unpaid interest, then against principal.

2. Interest. Interest shall accrue semi-annually on January 15 and July 15 of each year on the unpaid principal balance of this Note, commencing on the date hereof and continuing until repayment of this Note, in full, at the rate of 12% per annum, calculated on the basis of a 360-day year and actual days elapsed, by capitalizing the amount of such interest due and adding it to the outstanding principal amount of this Note.

3. Prepayment. Debtor may prepay upon not less than 5 days prior written notice to Lender, without premium or prepayment penalty, any unpaid principal balance or accrued interest or any other sums payable to Lender hereunder prior to the Repayment Date.

4. Default. For purposes of this Note, the term “default” shall include any of the following:

(a) The failure by Debtor to pay any amounts due under any of the Notes on the stated due date;

(b) Debtor shall (i) make an assignment for the benefit of creditors or petition or apply to any tribunal for the appointment of a custodian, receiver or trustee for it or a substantial part of its assets, (ii) commence any proceeding under any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, readjustment of debt, dissolution or liquidation law or statute of any jurisdiction, whether now or hereafter in effect, (iii) have had any such petition or application filed or any such proceeding commenced against it that is not dismissed within 30 days, (iv) indicate, by any act or intentional and purposeful omission, its consent to, approval of or acquiescence in any such petition, application, proceeding or order for relief or the appointment of a custodian, receiver or trustee for it or a substantial part of its assets, or (v) suffer any such custodianship, receivership or trusteeship to continue undischarged for a period of 30 days or more; or

Upon each such default, Lender may, at its option, accelerate repayment of this Note, in which case the principal amount outstanding under this Note, all interest accrued thereon and all other amounts owing hereunder shall be due and payable immediately; provided, that if there shall occur an Event of Default described in subparagraph (b), the entire unpaid balance of principal with interest accrued thereon and all other sums due under this Note shall be immediately due and payable without any action by Lender.

5. Miscellaneous.

(a) Debtor hereby waives presentment, demand, protest, notice of dishonor, diligence and all other notices, any release or discharge arising from any extension of time, discharge of a prior party, release of any or all of any security given from time to time for this Note, or other cause of release or discharge or defense to payment and performance of its obligations hereunder other than actual payment in full hereof.

(b) Any term of this Note may be amended or waived with the prior written consent of Debtor and Lender. Lender shall not be deemed, by any act or omission, to have waived any of its rights or remedies hereunder unless such waiver is in writing and signed by Lender and then only to the extent specifically set forth in such writing. A waiver with reference to one event shall not be construed as continuing or as a bar to or waiver of any right or remedy as to a subsequent event. No delay or omission of Lender to exercise any right, whether before or after a default hereunder, shall impair any such right or shall be construed to be a waiver of any right or default, and the acceptance at

any time by Lender of any past-due amount shall not be deemed to be a waiver of the right to require prompt payment when due of any other amounts then or thereafter due and payable.

(c) Time is of the essence hereof. Upon any default hereunder, Lender may exercise all rights and remedies provided for herein and by law or equity or otherwise, including, but not limited to, the right to immediate payment in full of this Note.

(d) The remedies of Lender as provided herein, or any one or more of them, or in law or in equity, shall be cumulative and concurrent, and may be pursued singularly, successively or together at Lender’s sole discretion and may be exercised as often as occasion therefor shall occur.

(e) If any provisions of this Note would require Debtor to pay interest hereon at a rate exceeding the highest rate allowed by applicable law, Debtor shall instead pay interest under this Note at the highest rate permitted by applicable law.

(f) This Note shall be governed by and construed in accordance with and the laws of the State of New York, including, without limitation, Section 5-1401 of the New York General Obligations Law.

(g) The Debtor shall pay all costs and expenses, including attorneys’ fees and disbursements, incurred in the collection or enforcement hereof.

(h) This Note shall be binding upon Debtor and its successors and assigns. This Note may not be assigned or transferred by either Debtor or Lender without the written consent of each other. Any purported assignment in violation of this section shall be null and void and of no force and effect.

(i) If any provision of this Note is held to be invalid, illegal, void or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, the other provisions of this Note shall remain in full force and effect and shall be liberally construed in favor of Lender in order to effect the provisions of this Note. It is hereby stipulated and declared to be the intention of the Debtor and the Lender that they would have executed the remaining terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions without including any of such that may be hereafter declared invalid, illegal, void or unenforceable.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, Debtor has executed this Note as of the date first above written.

Exhibit E

VALUATION OF NON-CASH CONSIDERATION

Any consideration in a form other than cash or Marketable Securities (the “Alternative Consideration”) to be received pursuant to the terms of this Agreement shall be valued at the price that an unrelated third party would pay to acquire all of such Alternative Consideration, in an arm’s-length transaction as of the date measurement among a willing, fully-informed buyer and seller, taking into account all existing circumstances. The proposed value (the “First Value”) of such Alternative Consideration shall be proposed by the party initiating the applicable transaction under this Agreement and delivered to the other Major Stockholder in a written notice (the “Alternative Consideration Notice”).

Within ten days after receiving an Alternative Consideration Notice, if the other Major Stockholder disagrees with the First Value, the other Major Stockholder may, deliver a notice (the “Objection Notice”) to the Major Stockholder. If no Objection Notice is received by the Major Stockholder within such ten-day period, then the value of the Alternative Consideration shall be the First Value, and shall become final and binding upon the parties hereto. If an Objection Notice is received by the Major Stockholder within such ten-day period, then the value of the Alternative Consideration shall become final and binding upon the parties on the earlier of (i) the date the parties resolve in writing any differences they have with respect to the Alternative Consideration, or (ii) the date any disputed matters are finally resolved in writing by the Alternative Consideration Arbitrator.

The Major Stockholders will use reasonable efforts to resolve any disagreements as to the value of the Alternative Consideration. If they do not obtain a final resolution within five days after the Major Stockholder has received the Objection Notice, then the Major Stockholders shall, on such 5th day, select an investment banking firm listed on Exhibit F hereto (the “Alternative Consideration Arbitrator”) for review and resolution. The procedures for the arbitration shall be determined by the Alternative Consideration Arbitrator. Within 15 days of selecting the Alternative Consideration Arbitrator, the Major Stockholders shall each present a proposed value of the Alternative Consideration (based on whatever factors each believes are relevant) and the Alternative Consideration Arbitrator shall select one of the values. The Alternative Consideration Arbitrator shall render a decision resolving the matters in dispute within 30 days following completion of the submissions to the Alternative Consideration Arbitrator. The determination by the Alternative Consideration Arbitrator will be binding and conclusive on the parties. The Non-Prevailing Party in any arbitration before the Alternative Consideration Arbitrator shall pay 100% of the fees and expenses of the Alternative Consideration Arbitrator. A party is the “Non-Prevailing Party” if the Alternative Consideration Arbitrator does not select such party’s calculation.
