SECTION 2. Board Representation.

(a) Until such time as Apollo no longer beneficially owns at least 50.1% of the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at any time, the Company shall support the nomination of, and cause the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board of Directors”) to include in the slate of nominees recommended to stockholders for election as directors, four (4) persons designated at any time and from time to time by Apollo Management;

(b) After such time as Apollo no longer beneficially owns at least 50.1%, but until such time as Apollo no longer beneficially owns at least 33 1/3% of the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at any time, the Company shall support the nomination of, and cause the Board of Directors to include in the slate of nominees recommended to stockholders for election as directors, three (3) persons designated at any time and from time to time by Apollo Management;

(c) Until such time as Apollo no longer beneficially owns at least 50.1% of the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at any time, upon written request from Apollo Management, the Company promptly shall take all action as shall be necessary to, and shall cause the Board of Directors of the Company to, increase the size of the Board of Directors by such number that will cause Apollo Designees to constitute a majority of the positions on the Board of Directors, and the Company shall cause the Board of Directors promptly to fill the vacancies created by such increase with Apollo Designees and shall, at the annual stockholder meeting following such written request from Apollo Management, support the nomination of, and cause the Board of Directors to include in the slate of nominees recommended to stockholders for election as directors, Apollo Designees to fill such vacancies (in addition to the four (4) Apollo Designees referred to in clause (a));

provided, however, that, notwithstanding the foregoing subsections (a), (b) and (c), the Company shall not be required to take any action which it reasonably believes is unlawful, and the Company shall be allowed to take any action the omission of which it reasonably believes would be unlawful.

(d) Until such time as Apollo no longer beneficially owns at least 33 1/3% of the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at any time, vacancies arising through the death, resignation or removal of an Apollo Designee may be filled only by a majority of the directors nominated by Apollo Management then in office and the directors so chosen shall hold office until the next annual election and until their successors are duly elected and qualified, or until their earlier death, resignation or removal.

2

successors are duly elected and qualified, or until their earlier death, resignation or removal.

(f) Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 2, Apollo Management shall not be entitled to designate any person as a nominee to the Board of Directors if the Company receives a written opinion of its outside legal counsel of national reputation that such person would not be qualified under any applicable law, rule or regulation, rule of the New York Stock Exchange or the Amended and Restated By-Laws of the Corporation (the “By-Laws”) to serve as a director of the Company. Other than with respect to the issue set forth in the preceding sentence, the Company shall not have the right to object to any Apollo Designee. The Company shall notify Apollo Management in writing of the date on which proxy materials are expected to be mailed by the Company in connection with an election of directors (and such notice shall be delivered to Apollo Management at least 30 days prior to such expected mailing date). The Company shall notify Apollo Management of any objection to an Apollo Designee sufficiently in advance of the date on which such proxy materials are to be mailed by the Company in connection with such election of directors so as to enable Apollo Management to propose a replacement Apollo Designee in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

SECTION 3. Apollo Approval Rights.

(a) Subject to the provisions of subsection (b), without the approval of a majority of a quorum of the entire Board of Directors, which must include the approval of a majority of the directors nominated by Apollo Management voting on such matter, the Company shall not, and (to the extent applicable) shall not permit any subsidiary of the Company to, take any of the actions prohibited by Section 3.6 of the By-Laws.

(b) The approval rights set forth in Section 3.6 of the By-Laws shall terminate at such time as Apollo no longer beneficially owns at least 33 1/3% of the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at any time.
