3.3, references to PAG or shares held by PAG shall mean and refer to Shareholder
Shares and Company Shares as such terms are defined and used in Section 3.1.3
herein.

the Term, as defined in Section ? below, Legacy intends to file a registration
statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission (other than registrations
filed on Form S-8 or on Form S-4, or any similar or successor forms then in

in its sole discretion, that the inclusion of such PAG Shares and the shares of
any other holder of shares, excluding Legacy (collectively referred to as the
"Non-Legacy Shares"), intended to be included in such Registration Statement
will not have a material adverse affect on a current or proposed offering of
Legacy (the "Public Offering"). To the extent the Underwriter shall determine

PAG Shares, PAG shall furnish, in writing, such information as is requested by

shall reasonably request. In addition, PAG shall execute and deliver such
agreements, certifications and other documents, including, without limitation,
selling shareholder instructions, powers-of-attorney, and custody agreements, as
Legacy or Underwriter may reasonably request. Legacy's obligation to
5
<PAGE> 6
register the PAG Shares shall be subject to the fulfilment of the duty of PAG to
cooperate fully with Legacy and the Underwriter and their representatives in the
preparation of the Registration Statement covering the PAG Shares and to
otherwise not be in default of any provisions of this Agreement.
3.3.4 Expenses All expenses incurred in connection with any
Registration under this Section ?, including, without limitation, all
registration and filing fees, printing expenses, fees and disbursements of
counsel for the Company, blue sky fees and expenses, and expenses of any audits
incident to or required by any such registration are herein called "Registration
Expenses." All underwriting discounts and selling commissions applicable to any
offer and sale of securities herein are called "Selling Expenses." Legacy will
pay all Registration Expenses attributable to the PAG Shares in connection with
any Registration pursuant to this Section 3.3.4. All Selling Expenses in
connection with any registration pursuant to this Section 3.3.4 shall be borne
by Legacy and PAG, pro rata as the shares registered thereby being sold or
registered by each of them bears to the total number of shares being registered.
PAG shall bear the fees and costs of his own counsel. Notwithstanding the
foregoing provisions of this Section ?, PAG shall pay for all Registration and
Selling Expenses which applicable state securities or other regulatory agencies

securities being sold or registered.

delivery requirements of applicable federal or state securities laws in
connection with any registration. If any prospectus becomes outdated,
inaccurate, or misleading, PAG shall cease using all such prospectuses upon
notice thereof from Legacy and shall return all copies of such prospectuses
under PAG's control to Legacy.
3.3.6 No Registration Required Legacy shall not be required to
effect a registration under this Section 3.3.6 if PAG would otherwise be able to
sell, in its entirety on the day following the receipt by PAG of the Notice
under Section 3.3. 1, without registration, the number of shares sought to be
registered at the time of the registration, pursuant to Rule 144 promulgated by
the Securities and Exchange Commission as then in effect or pursuant to any
other exemption from the registration provisions of the 1933 Act then available
to PAG (collectively referred to as "Rule 144"), so long as the purchaser
thereof shall acquire shares that are not subject to any restriction on resale
as may otherwise be imposed pursuant to Rule 144.

Shares pursuant to this Section ? shall cease and terminate as to the PAG Shares
upon the occurrence of the earlier of the following: (i) the termination of this
Agreement according to its terms; (ii) at any time the PAG Shares become freely

Transfer Notice. In the event that CBS shall not have delivered its Acceptance
Notice to PAG within the Acceptance Period, PAG may complete the Transfer. In
the event that PAG shall fail to complete the Transfer on the same terms and
conditions as set forth in
7
<PAGE> 8

been terminated and the First Refusal Right with respect to such PAG Shares
