Section 2. Board Number; Board Nomination.

(a) For so long as Doughty Hanson beneficially owns 10% or more of the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding, the Doughty Hanson Funds shall have the right (but not the obligation) pursuant to this Agreement to nominate to the Board, two (2) directors, and the Company shall include, and shall use its best efforts to cause the Board, whether acting through the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of the Board or otherwise, to include, in the slate of nominees recommended to stockholders of the Company (the “Stockholders”) for election as a director at any annual or special meeting of the Stockholders (or, if permitted, by any action by written consent of the Stockholders) at or by which directors of the Company are to be elected, the up to two individuals identified in advance by the Doughty Hanson Funds.

(b) For so long as Doughty Hanson beneficially owns 3% or more but less than 10% of the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding, the Doughty Hanson Funds shall have the right (but not the obligation) pursuant to this Agreement to nominate to the Board, one (1) director, and the Company shall include, and shall use its best efforts to cause the Board, whether acting through the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of the Board or otherwise, to include, in the slate of nominees recommended to the Stockholders for election as a director at any annual or special meeting of the Stockholders (or, if permitted, by any action by written consent of the Stockholders) at or by which directors of the Company are to be elected, the one individual identified in advance by the Doughty Hanson Funds (any such individuals identified pursuant to Section 2(a) or Section 2(b) hereof, the “Doughty Hanson Nominees”).

(c) In the event that the Doughty Hanson Funds have nominated less than the total number of designees that the Doughty Hanson Funds shall be entitled to nominate pursuant to this Section 2(a) or Section 2(b), then the Doughty Hanson Funds shall have the right, at any time, to nominate such additional designee(s) to which the Doughty Hanson Funds are entitled, in which case, the directors shall take all necessary corporate action to (1) increase the size of the Board as required to enable the Doughty Hanson Funds to so nominate such additional designees and (2) designate such additional designees nominated by the Doughty Hanson Funds to fill such newly created vacancies.

2

(d) Vacancies arising through the death, resignation or removal of any Doughty Hanson Nominee who was nominated to the Board pursuant to this Section 2, may be filled by the Board only with a Doughty Hanson Nominee, and the director so chosen shall hold office until the next election and until his or her successor is duly elected and qualified, or until his or her earlier death, resignation or removal.

(e) Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 2, the Doughty Hanson Funds shall not be entitled to designate a Person as a nominee to the Board upon a written determination by the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of the Company (which determination shall set forth in writing reasonable grounds for such determination) that such Person would not be qualified under any applicable law, rule or regulation to serve as a director of the Company. In such an event, the Doughty Hanson Funds shall be entitled to select a Person as a replacement nominee and the Company shall use its best efforts to cause such Person to be nominated as the Doughty Hanson Nominee at the same meeting (or, if permitted, pursuant to the same action by written consent of the Stockholders) as such initial Person was to be nominated. Other than with respect to the issue set forth in the preceding sentence, neither the Company nor any other party to this Agreement shall have the right to object to any Doughty Hanson Nominee.

(f) So long as Doughty Hanson owns 3% or more of the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at any time, the Company shall notify the Doughty Hanson Funds in writing of the date on which proxy materials are expected to be mailed by the Company in connection with an election of directors at an annual or special meeting of the Stockholders (and the Company shall deliver such notice at least 60 days (or such shorter period to which the Doughty Hanson Funds consent, which consent need not be in writing) prior to such expected mailing date or such earlier date as may be specified by the Company reasonably in advance of such earlier delivery date on the basis that such earlier delivery is necessary so as to ensure that such nominee may be included in such proxy materials at the time such proxy materials are mailed). The Company shall provide the Doughty Hanson Funds with a reasonable opportunity to review and provide comments on any portion of the proxy materials relating to the Doughty Hanson Nominees or the rights and obligations provided under this Agreement and to discuss any such comments with the Company. The Company shall notify the Doughty Hanson Funds of any opposition to a Doughty Hanson Nominee 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 the Doughty Hanson Funds to propose a replacement Doughty Hanson Nominee, if necessary, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, and the Doughty Hanson Funds shall have 10 business days to designate another nominee.

(g) In the event that the Doughty Hanson Funds cease to have the right to designate a person to serve as a director pursuant to this Section 2, the Doughty Hanson Funds shall use its best efforts to cause the applicable Doughty Hanson Nominee to resign immediately.
