Authorization; Validity of Agreement (a) The Company has the requisite corporate power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement and to consummate the Transactions, subject to the approval and adoption of this Agreement by the affirmative vote of the requisite holders of the outstanding shares of Company Capital Stock (the “Company Required Vote”). The execution, delivery, and performance by the Company hereof and the consummation by the Company of the Transactions have been duly authorized by the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Company Board”). The Company Board has directed that this Agreement and the Transactions be submitted to the Company’s stockholders for approval and adoption at a meeting of such stockholders and, except for the approval and adoption hereof by the Company Required Vote and the filing of the Certificate of Merger pursuant to the DGCL, no other corporate proceedings on the part of the Company are necessary to authorize the execution, delivery, and performance hereof by the Company and the consummation of the Transactions.
