WHEREAS, as a condition to their willingness to enter into the Agreement and Plan of Merger
(the “Merger Agreement”) dated as of the date hereof by and among Parent, Sub and the
Company, Parent and Sub have requested that each Stockholder, and in order to induce Parent and Sub

stockholder of the Company) has agreed to, enter into this Agreement;
WHEREAS, capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the respective
meanings ascribed to such terms in the Merger Agreement.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and for other good and valuable consideration
given to each party hereto, the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as
follows:
ARTICLE 1
AGREEMENT TO TENDER
Section 1.01 Agreement to Tender. Each Stockholder shall duly tender, in the Offer, all of the Subject Shares pursuant to and in
accordance with the terms of the Offer, provided the Offer price does not decrease. Promptly, but
in any event no later than ten Business Days after the commencement of the Offer, each Stockholder
shall (i) deliver to the depositary designated in the Offer (the “Depositary”) (A) a letter
of transmittal with respect to his or its Subject Shares complying with the terms of the Offer, (B)
a certificate or certificates representing such Subject Shares or an “agent’s message”
(or such other evidence, if any, of transfer as the Depositary may reasonably request) in the case
of a book-entry transfer of any uncertificated Subject Shares and (C) all other documents or
instruments required to be delivered pursuant to the terms of the Offer, and/or (ii) instruct such
Stockholder’s broker or such other
Person that is the holder of record of any Subject Shares
beneficially owned by such Stockholder to tender such Subject Shares pursuant to and in accordance
with the terms of the Offer. Each Stockholder shall duly tender to Sub during any Subsequent
Offering Period provided by Sub in accordance with the terms of the Offer, all of the Subject
Shares, if any, which shall have been issued after the expiration of the Offer. Each Stockholder
agrees that once his or its Subject Shares are tendered pursuant to the terms hereof, such
Stockholder will not withdraw any tender of such Subject Shares, unless and until (i) the Offer
shall have been terminated or shall have expired, in each case, in accordance with the terms of the
Merger Agreement, or (ii) this Agreement shall have been terminated in accordance with Section 2.03
hereof.
Section 1.02 Voting of Subject Shares.
At every meeting of the stockholders of the Company called for such purpose, and at
every adjournment or postponement thereof, each Stockholder shall, or shall cause the holder of
record on any applicable record date to, vote his or its Subject Shares (to the extent that any of
such Stockholder’s Subject Shares are not purchased in the Offer and provided that the Offer price
was not decreased) (i) in favor of the adoption of the Merger Agreement and the transactions
contemplated thereby, (ii) against (A) any agreement or arrangement related to any Acquisition
Proposal, and (B) any liquidation, dissolution, recapitalization, extraordinary dividend or other
significant corporate reorganization of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, and (iii) in favor
of any other matter necessary for consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Merger
Agreement which is considered at any such meeting of stockholders, and in connection therewith,
such Stockholder shall execute any documents which are necessary or appropriate in order to
effectuate the foregoing. Each Stockholder shall retain at all times the right to vote his or its
Subject Shares in his or its sole discretion and without any other limitation on those matters
other than those set forth in this Section 1.02 that are at any time or from time to time presented
for consideration to the Company’s stockholders generally. In the event that any meeting of the
stockholders of the Company is held, such Stockholder shall, or shall cause the holder of record on
any applicable record date to, appear at such meeting or otherwise cause his or its Subject Shares
(to the extent that any of such Stockholder’s Subject Shares are not purchased in the Offer) to be
counted as present thereat for purposes of establishing a quorum.
Section 1.03 No Transfers; No Inconsistent Arrangements. Except as provided hereunder or under the Merger Agreement, such Stockholder shall not, directly
or indirectly, (i) transfer (which term shall include any sale, assignment, gift, pledge,
hypothecation or other disposition), or consent to or permit any such transfer of, any or all of
such Stockholder’s Subject Shares or any interest therein (except where the transferee or third
party agrees in writing to be bound by the terms hereof), or create or permit to exist any lien
that would prevent such Stockholder from tendering his or its Subject Shares in accordance with
this Agreement or from complying with his or its other obligations under this Agreement, other than
any restrictions imposed by applicable Law or pursuant to this Agreement, on any such Subject
Shares, (ii) enter into any contracts inconsistent with the terms hereof with respect to any
transfer of such Subject Shares or any interest therein, (iii) grant or permit the grant of any
proxy, power of attorney or other authorization in or with respect to such Subject Shares relating
to the subject matter hereof, (iv) deposit or permit the deposit of such Subject Shares into a
voting trust or enter into a voting agreement or arrangement with respect to such Subject Shares,
or (v) take or permit any other
2
action that would in any way restrict, limit or interfere with the
performance of his or its obligations hereunder or the transactions contemplated hereby.
Section 1.04 Appraisal Rights. Each Stockholder agrees not to exercise any appraisal rights in respect of his or its Subject
Shares which may arise with respect to the Merger.
Section 1.05 Documentation and Information. Each Stockholder (i) consents to and authorizes the publication and disclosure by Parent of his
or its identity and holding of Subject Shares, and the nature of his or its commitments,
arrangements and understandings under this Agreement, in any press release, the Offer Documents, or
any other disclosure document required in connection with the Offer, the Merger and any
transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, and (ii) agrees as promptly as practicable to
give to Parent any information reasonably related to the foregoing that it may reasonably require
for the preparation of any such disclosure documents. Each Stockholder agrees as promptly as
practicable to notify Parent of any required corrections with respect to any written information
supplied by such Stockholder specifically for use in any such disclosure document, if and to the
extent such Stockholder becomes aware that any such information shall have become false or
misleading in any material respect.
Section 1.06 Changes to Shares. In the event of any stock dividend or distribution,
or any change to the Shares by reason of any stock dividend or distribution, split-up,
recapitalization, combination, exchange of shares or any other similar transaction, the term
“Shares” as used in this Agreement shall be deemed to refer to and include the Shares and all such
stock dividends and distributions and any securities into which or for which any or all of the
Shares may be changed or exchanged or which are received in the relevant transaction.
Section 1.07 Representations and Warranties. Each Stockholder represents and warrants
to Parent and Sub as follows:
This Agreement has been duly and validly executed and delivered by such Stockholder and,
assuming this Agreement constitutes a valid and binding obligation of each of Parent and Sub,
constitutes a legal, valid and binding agreement of such Stockholder enforceable against such
Stockholder in accordance with its terms. The execution, delivery and performance by such
Stockholder of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby do not
and will not conflict with, or result in the breach or termination of or constitute a default
(with or without the giving of notice or the lapse of time or both) under, any provision of any
contract binding upon such Stockholder or any of its Affiliates, except for any such conflicts,
breaches, terminations and defaults which would not, individually or in the aggregate, be
reasonably expected to prevent, delay or impair the consummation by such Stockholder of the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Each Stockholder has, and on the date Sub becomes
obligated to accept for payment, purchase and pay for such Stockholders’ Shares such Stockholder
will have, good and valid title to the Subject Shares, free and clear of any liens, proxies, voting
trusts or agreements, understandings or arrangements. There are no options or rights to acquire,
or any agreements to which such Stockholder is a party relating to, the Subject
3
Shares, other than
this Agreement. As of the date hereof, the Shares Beneficially Owned by each Stockholder represent
all of the Shares beneficially owned (within the meaning of Rule 13d 3 under the Exchange Act) by
such Stockholder.

condition herein may be waived by the party or parties entitled to the benefits thereof only by a
written instrument signed by the party expressly granting such waiver, but such waiver or failure
to insist upon strict compliance with such obligation, covenant, agreement or condition shall not
operate as a waiver of, or estoppel with respect to, any subsequent or other failure.
Section 2.05 Expenses. All costs and expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement shall be paid by the party
incurring such costs and expenses, whether or not the transactions contemplated by this Agreement
or the Merger Agreement are consummated.

binding upon, inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the parties and their respective
permitted successors and assigns.
Section 2.07 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of

Stockholder agrees that a final judgment in any action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be
enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by Law.
Section 2.10 Service of Process. Each party irrevocably consents to the service of process outside the territorial jurisdiction
of the courts referred to in Section 2.09 hereof in any such action or proceeding by mailing copies
thereof by registered or certified United States mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested,
to such party’s address as specified in or pursuant to Section 2.01 hereof. However, the foregoing

shall apply to each Stockholder solely in each Stockholder’s capacity as a stockholder of the
Company).
Section 2.15 Stockholder Obligations Several and Not Joint. The obligations of each Stockholder hereunder shall be several and not joint and no Stockholder
