(b) The Transferring Stockholder shall give written notice (a Tag-Along Notice) to each other Stockholder of a Proposed Transfer, setting forth the number and class(es) of Common Shares proposed to be so Transferred, the name and address of the Proposed Transferee, the proposed amount and form of consideration and other terms and conditions of payment offered by the Proposed Transferee. The Transferring Stockholder shall deliver or cause to be delivered to each other Stockholder copies of all transaction documents relating to the Proposed Transfer as the same become available. The tag-along rights provided by this Section 4.04 must be exercised by a Stockholder within a period of three (3) Business Days from the date of the Tag-Along Notice, by delivery of a written notice to the Transferring Stockholder indicating its desire to exercise its rights and specifying the number and class(es) of Common Shares it desires to Transfer. With respect to each class of Common Shares proposed to be Transferred, if the Transferring Stockholder is unable to cause the Proposed Transferee to purchase all the Common Shares of such class proposed to be Transferred by the Transferring Stockholder and the Tagging Stockholders, then the number of Common Shares of such class that each such Stockholder is permitted to sell in such Proposed Transfer shall be reduced pro rata based on the number of Common Shares of such class proposed to be Transferred by such Stockholder relative to the aggregate number of Common Shares of such class proposed to be Transferred by all Stockholders participating in such Proposed Transfer. The Transferring Stockholder shall have a period of sixty (60) days following the expiration of the three (3) Business Day period mentioned above to enter into a definitive agreement to sell all the Common Shares agreed to be purchased by the Proposed Transferee on the terms specified in the notice required by the first sentence of this Section 4.04(b).

(c) Any Transfer of Common Shares by a Tagging Stockholder to a Proposed Transferee pursuant to this Section 4.04 shall be on the same terms and conditions (including, without limitation, price, time of payment and form of consideration) as to be paid to the Transferring Stockholder; provided that in order to be entitled to exercise its tag-along right pursuant to this Section 4.04, each Tagging Stockholder must agree to make to the Proposed Transferee representations, warranties, covenants, indemnities and agreements the same mutatis mutandis as those made by the Transferring Stockholder in connection with the Proposed
17
Transfer (other than any non-competition, non-solicitation or similar agreements or covenants that would bind the Tagging Stockholder, its Affiliates or any of their respective portfolio companies), and agree to the same conditions to the Proposed Transfer as the Transferring Stockholder agrees, it being understood that all such representations, warranties, covenants, indemnities and agreements shall be made by the Transferring Stockholder and each Tagging Stockholder severally and not jointly and that the aggregate amount of the liability of the Tagging Stockholder shall not exceed, except with respect to individual representations, warranties, covenants, indemnities and other agreements of the Tagging Stockholder as to the unencumbered title to its Common Shares and the power, authority and legal right to Transfer such Common Shares, such Tagging Stockholders pro rata share of any such liability to be determined in accordance with such Tagging Stockholders portion of the total number of Common Shares included in such Transfer; provided that, in any event the amount of liability of any Tagging Stockholder shall not exceed the proceeds such Tagging Stockholder received in connection with such Transfer. Each Tagging Stockholder shall be responsible for its proportionate share of the costs of the Proposed Transfer to the extent not paid or reimbursed by the Proposed Transferee or the Company.
(d) The provisions of this Section 4.04 shall terminate upon the occurrence of a QPO.
Section 4.05. Drag-Along Rights. (a) For so long as the Stockholders and Management hold, in the aggregate, greater than fifty percent (50%) of the outstanding Common Shares and one or more Sponsors agree to enter into a transaction which would result in the Transfer of greater than 50% of the Common Shares to a non-Affiliate third party (a Drag-Along Buyer), such Sponsor(s) (the Selling Stockholders) may compel each other Stockholder and Management (together, the Drag-Along Stockholders) to sell its Common Shares by delivering written notice (a Drag-Along Notice) to the Drag-Along Stockholders stating that such Selling Stockholders wish to exercise their rights under this Section 4.05 with respect to such Transfer, and setting forth the name and address of the Drag-Along Buyer, the number and class(es) of Common Shares proposed to be Transferred, the proposed amount and form of the consideration, and all other material terms and conditions offered by the Drag-Along Buyer; provided however, that one or more Sponsors may exercise its drag-along rights hereunder with respect to Sovereign Co-Invest regardless of the amount of Common Shares to be Transferred by such Sponsor or Sponsors and provided further, that in order for one Sponsor to exercise its drag-along rights under this Section 4.05, it must receive the consent of the other Sponsor, such consent being required for so long as such other Sponsor, together with its Affiliates, beneficially owns at least 5% of the outstanding Common Shares.
(b) Upon delivery of a Drag-Along Notice, each Drag-Along Stockholder shall be required to Transfer its Pro Rata Portion, on the same terms and conditions (including, without limitation, as to price, time of payment and form of consideration) as agreed by the Selling Stockholders and the Drag-Along Buyer, and shall make to the Drag-Along Buyer representations, warranties, covenants, indemnities and agreements comparable to those made by the Selling Stockholders in connection with the Transfer (other than any non-competition, non-solicitation or similar agreements or covenants that would bind the Drag-Along Stockholder, its Affiliates or any of their respective portfolio companies), and shall agree to the same conditions to the Transfer as the Selling Stockholders agree, it being understood that all such
18
representations, warranties, covenants, indemnities and agreements shall be made by each Selling Stockholder and each Drag-Along Stockholder severally and not jointly and that, the aggregate amount of the liability of the Drag-Along Stockholder shall not exceed, except with respect to individual representations, warranties, covenants, indemnities and other agreements of the Drag-Along Stockholder as to the unencumbered title to its Common Shares and the power, authority and legal right to Transfer such Common Shares, such Drag-Along Stockholders pro rata share of any such liability, to be determined in accordance with such Drag-Along Stockholders portion of the total number of Common Shares included in such Transfer; provided that, in any event the amount of liability of any Drag-Along Stockholder shall not exceed the proceeds such Drag-Along Stockholder received in connection with such Transfer.
(c) In the event that any such Transfer is structured as a merger, consolidation, or similar business combination, each Drag-Along Stockholder agrees to (i) vote in favor of the transaction, (ii) take such other action as may be required to effect such transaction (subject to Section 4.05(b)) and (iii) take all action to waive any dissenters, appraisal or other similar rights with respect thereto.
(d) Solely for purposes of Section 4.05(c)(i) and in order to secure the performance of each Stockholders obligations under Section 4.05(c)(i), each Stockholder hereby irrevocably appoints each other Stockholder that qualifies as a Drag-Along Proxy Holder (as defined below) the attorney-in-fact and proxy of such first Stockholder (with full power of substitution) to vote or provide a written consent with respect to its Common Shares as described in this paragraph if, and only in the event that, such Stockholder fails to vote or provide a written consent with respect to its Common Shares in accordance with the terms of Section 4.05(c)(i) (each such Stockholder, a Breaching Drag-Along Stockholder) within three (3) days of a request for such vote or written consent. Upon such failure, the Selling Stockholders shall have and are hereby irrevocably granted a proxy to vote or provide a written consent with respect to each such Breaching Drag-Along Stockholders Common Shares for the purposes of taking the actions required by Section 4.05(c)(i) (such Selling Stockholders each and collectively, a Drag-Along Proxy Holder). Each Stockholder intends this proxy to be, and it shall be, irrevocable and coupled with an interest, and each Stockholder will take such further action and execute such other instruments as may be necessary to effectuate the intent of this proxy and hereby revoke any proxy previously granted by it with respect to the matters set forth in Section 4.05(c)(i) with respect to the Common Shares owned by such Stockholder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the conditional proxy granted by this Section 4.05(d) shall be deemed to be revoked upon the termination of this Article IV in accordance with its terms.
(e) If any Drag-Along Stockholder fails to deliver to the Drag-Along Buyer the certificate or certificates evidencing Common Shares to be sold pursuant to this Section 4.05, the Selling Stockholders may, at their option, in addition to all other remedies they may have, deposit the purchase price (including any promissory note constituting all or any portion thereof) for such Common Shares with any national bank or trust company having combined capital, surplus and undivided profits in excess of $100 million (the Escrow Agent), and the Company shall cancel on its books the certificate or certificates representing such Common Shares and thereupon all of such Drag-Along Stockholders rights in and to such Common Shares shall terminate. Thereafter, upon delivery to the Company by such Drag-Along Stockholder of the certificate or certificates evidencing such Common Shares (duly endorsed, or with stock powers
19
duly endorsed, for transfer, with signature guaranteed, free and clear of any liens or encumbrances, and with any stock transfer tax stamps affixed), the Selling Stockholders shall instruct the Escrow Agent to deliver the purchase price (without any interest from the date of the closing to the date of such delivery, any such interest to accrue to the Company) to such Drag-Along Stockholder.
Section 4.06. Rights and Obligations of Transferees. (a) Any Transfer of Common Shares to any Permitted Transferee (other than a Stockholder), which Transfer is otherwise in compliance herewith, shall be permitted hereunder only if the Transferee of such Common Shares agrees in writing that it shall, upon such Transfer, assume with respect to such Common Shares the Transferors obligations under this Agreement and become a party to this Agreement for such purpose, and any other agreement or instrument executed and delivered by such transferor in respect of the Common Shares.

Section 5.13. Governing Law; Jurisdiction. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE, WITHOUT REGARD TO THE CONFLICTS OF LAW PRINCIPLES THEREOF. ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING AGAINST THE PARTIES RELATING IN ANY WAY TO THIS AGREEMENT MAY BE BROUGHT AND ENFORCED EXCLUSIVELY IN THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE OR (TO THE EXTENT SUBJECT MATTER JURISDICTION EXISTS THEREFOR) THE U.S. DISTRICT COURT FOR THE DISTRICT OF DELAWARE, AND THE PARTIES IRREVOCABLY SUBMIT TO THE JURISDICTION OF BOTH SUCH COURTS IN RESPECT OF ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING.

Any such party shall, therefore, be entitled (in addition to any other remedy to which such party may be entitled at law or in equity) to injunctive relief, including specific performance, to enforce such obligations, without the posting of any bond and if any action should be brought in equity to enforce any of the provisions of this Agreement, none of the parties hereto shall raise the defense that there is an adequate remedy at law.
