agree as follows:


                                 ARTICLE I

                              VOTING OF SHARES

               SECTION 1.01 Voting Agreement. (a) The Company hereby agrees
to appear, or cause the holder of record of the Shares on any applicable
record date (the "Record Holder") to appear, for the purpose of obtaining a
quorum at any annual or special meeting of stockholders of BHC and at any
adjournment thereof at which matters relating to the BHC Merger or the BHC

               (b) The Company hereby further agrees to vote, or cause the
Record Holder to vote, in person or by proxy, all the Shares or other

(including all of the Shares or other equity securities of BHC which may,
or with respect to which voting power or control may, hereafter be acquired
by the Company) at any annual or special meeting of stockholders of BHC and
at any adjournment thereof, or pursuant to any action by written consent,
in which matters relating to the BHC Merger, the BHC Merger Agreement, any
Competing Transaction or any Superior Proposal are considered:

                      (i)    in favor of the adoption of the BHC Merger
        Agreement and the approval of the BHC Merger;

                      (ii) against any action, proposal or agreement that
        could be reasonably expected to (a) result in a breach in any
        material respect of any covenant, representation or warranty or any
        other obligation of the Company under this Agreement or the BHC
        Merger Agreement, (b) materially impede, interfere with, delay,
        postpone or adversely affect the BHC Merger or (c) result in a
        failure to fulfill any one of the conditions to the BHC Merger
        Agreement; and

                      (iii)  against any Competing Transaction or Superior
        Proposal.

               SECTION 1.02 No Ownership Interest. Nothing contained in
this Agreement will be deemed to vest in Buyer or Acquisition Sub any
direct or indirect ownership or incidence of ownership of or with respect
to, or any interest in, any Shares. All rights, ownership and economic
benefits of and relating to the Shares will remain and belong to the
Company, and neither Buyer nor Acquisition Sub will have any authority to
manage, direct, superintend, restrict, regulate, govern or administer any
of the policies or operations of BHC or exercise any power or authority to
direct the Company in the voting or control of any of its Shares, except as
otherwise provided herein or in the BHC Merger Agreement, or the
performance of the Company's duties or responsibilities as a stockholder of
BHC.

               SECTION 1.03 Evaluation of Investment. The Company is
capable of evaluating the merits and risks of its investment in Buyer as a
result of the Merger Agreements and has the capacity to protect its own
interest in making its investment in Buyer. The Company (a) is acquiring

for its own account for investment purposes and not with a view to the
distribution thereof, (b) is a sophisticated investor with knowledge and
experience in business and financial matters, (c) has received certain

risks inherent in holding the Buyer Shares, (d) is able to bear the
economic risk inherent in holding the Buyer Shares and (e) is an Accredited
Investor. As used herein "Securities Act" means the Securities Act of 1933,
as amended, and "Accredited Investor" has the meaning set forth in
Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act.

               SECTION 1.04 No Inconsistent Agreements. The Company hereby
represents, warrants and covenants that, other than in connection with the
Company Merger, the Subsidiary Mergers, this Agreement, the Merger
Agreements and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, the
Company (a) has not entered, and will not enter, into any agreement with
respect to the voting of the Shares and (b) has not granted, and will not
grant, any proxy or power of attorney which is inconsistent with this
Agreement.


                                 ARTICLE II

                          COVENANTS OF THE COMPANY

               SECTION 2.01 No Disposition or Encumbrance of Shares. (a)
The Company hereby covenants and agrees that, other than in connection with
the Company Merger, the Subsidiary Mergers, this Agreement, the Merger
Agreements and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, the
Company shall not, directly or indirectly, offer or otherwise agree to
sell, assign, transfer, exchange, or dispose of, or create or permit to
exist any security interest, lien, claim, pledge, option, right of first
refusal, agreement, proxy, limitation on the Company's voting rights,
charge or other encumbrance of any nature whatsoever with respect to the
Shares, to or for the benefit of or in favor of any other person
("Transferee") without the prior written consent of Buyer, unless the
Transferee unconditionally agrees in writing to be bound by the terms of
this Agreement with respect to such Shares.

               (b) The Company hereby agrees and consents to the entry of
stop transfer instructions by BHC against the transfer of any Shares
inconsistent with the terms of Section 2.01(a) hereof.

               SECTION 2.02 No Solicitation. From the date hereof until the
termination of this Agreement, the Company shall not, directly or
indirectly, through any officer, director, agent or otherwise, initiate,
solicit or knowingly encourage (including by way of furnishing non-public
information), or take any other action knowingly to facilitate, any
inquiries or the making of any proposal that constitutes, or may reasonably
be expected to lead to, any Competing Transaction, or enter into or
maintain or continue discussions or negotiate with any person or entity in
furtherance of such inquiries or to obtain a Competing Transaction, or
agree to or endorse any Competing Transaction, or authorize any of the
officers, directors or employees of the Company or any investment banker,
financial advisor, attorney, accountant or other agent or representative of
the Company to take any such action, and the Company shall notify Buyer as
promptly as practicable of all of the relevant material details relating to
all inquiries and proposals which the Company or any such officer,
director, employee, investment banker, financial advisor, attorney,
accountant or other agent or representative may receive relating to any of
such matters; provided, however, that nothing contained herein shall
restrict or limit in any way any officer or director of the Company from
acting in its capacity as such or preclude or restrict in any way such
officer or director from taking any such actions as are permitted by the
BHC Merger Agreement.
