(ii) Except as set forth in Section 2.8 of the Company Disclosure Letter, at the Effective Time, each Company Option that is not cancelled in accordance with Section 2.8(a)(i) and has an exercise price per share of Company Common Stock at which such Company Option was exercisable immediately prior to the Effective Time less than the Per Share Price shall, by virtue of the Merger and without further action on the part of the holder thereof, be cancelled and converted into the contractual right to receive a payment in an amount in cash (without interest and subject to applicable withholding Taxes) equal to the product of (A) the number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to such Company Option as of immediately prior to the Effective Time and (B) the excess of the Per Share Price over the exercise price per share of such Company Option (each, a “Converted Option Cash Award”). Except as otherwise provided in this Section 2.8(a)(ii), each Converted Option Cash Award will be subject to the same terms and conditions (including applicable vesting provisions, but excluding exercise provisions) as applied to the corresponding Company Option immediately prior to the Effective Time and will become payable to the holder thereof in accordance with the original vesting schedule applicable to the corresponding Company Option; provided, that each Converted Option Cash Award shall provide that the unvested portion, if any, of such Converted Option Cash Award will immediately vest and become payable upon a termination of the holder’s employment or services by the Surviving Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries without “Cause” or a resignation by the holder for “Good Reason” (each as defined in Section 6.10(d) of the Company Disclosure Letter) that occurs within the twelve (12) month period following the Effective Time.

(b) Company Restricted Stock. At the Effective Time, each award of Company Restricted Stock outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time will automatically, without any action on the part of the holder thereof, be assumed by Parent and converted into an Ultimate Parent restricted stock award (each, an “Assumed Restricted Stock Award”) on the same terms and conditions (including applicable vesting and expiration provisions) as applied to each such award of Company Restricted Stock immediately prior to the Effective Time, except that each Assumed Restricted Stock Award shall cover that number of whole shares of Ultimate Parent Common Stock equal to the product of the number of shares of Company Common Stock underlying such award of Company Restricted Stock as of immediately prior to the Effective Time multiplied by the Equity Award Exchange Ratio, with the result rounded down to the nearest whole number of shares of Ultimate Parent Common Stock, and such Assumed Restricted Stock Award shall provide that the unvested portion, if any, of such Assumed Restricted Stock Award will immediately vest upon a termination of the holder’s employment or services by the Surviving Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries without “Cause” or a resignation by the holder for “Good Reason” (each as defined in Section 6.10(d) of the Company Disclosure Letter) that occurs within the twelve (12) month period following the Effective Time.

(i) Except as set forth in Section 2.8 of the Company Disclosure Letter, at the Effective Time each award of Company RSUs that (A) is vested and outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time or (B) pursuant to its terms as in effect as of the date hereof, would become vested as of the Effective Time (in each case, with any performance conditions applicable to such award of Company RSUs determined in accordance with the applicable award agreement relating thereto as of immediately prior to the Effective Time), will automatically, without any action on the part of the holder thereof, be cancelled and converted into the right to receive an amount in cash, without interest thereon and subject to applicable withholding Taxes, equal to the product of (x) the Per Share Price and (y) the total number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to such award of Company RSUs as of immediately prior to the Effective Time (the “Cash-Out RSU Consideration,” and together with the Cash-Out Option Consideration, the “Cash-Out Equity Award Consideration”).

(ii) Except as set forth in Section 2.8 of the Company Disclosure Letter, at the Effective Time, each award of Company RSUs that (A) was granted prior to the date hereof and (B) is outstanding and unvested as of the Effective Time shall, by virtue of the Merger and without further action on the part of the holder thereof, be cancelled and converted into the contractual right to receive a payment in an amount in cash (without interest and subject to applicable withholding Taxes) equal to the product of (x) the Per Share Price and (y) the total number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to such award of Company RSUs as of immediately prior to the Effective Time (each, a “Converted RSU Cash Award”). Except as otherwise provided in this Section 2.8(c)(ii), each Converted RSU Cash Award shall be subject to the same terms and conditions (including time-based vesting conditions) as applied to the corresponding award of Company RSUs immediately prior to the Effective Time and will become payable to the holder thereof in accordance with the original vesting schedule applicable to the corresponding Company RSU; provided, that each Converted RSU Cash Award shall provide that the unvested portion, if any, of such Converted RSU Cash Award will immediately vest and become payable upon a termination of the holder’s employment or services by the Surviving Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries without “Cause” or a resignation by the holder for “Good Reason” (each as defined in Section 6.10(d) of the Company Disclosure Letter) that occurs within the twelve (12) month period following the Effective Time.

(d) As soon as reasonably practicable following the Effective Time (but in no event more than ten (10) Business Days following the Effective Time), Parent shall file a registration statement on Form S-8 (or any successor form) with respect to the issuance of the shares of Ultimate Parent Common Stock subject to the Assumed Restricted Stock Awards and Assumed RSU Awards that are eligible to be registered on Form S-8 and shall use its reasonable best efforts to maintain the effectiveness of such registration statement or registration statements (and maintain the current status of the prospectus or prospectuses contained therein) for so long as the Assumed Restricted Stock Awards and Assumed RSU Awards remain outstanding; provided, however, that in the event that the filing deadline contemplated by this Section 2.8(d) shall occur while trading of shares of Ultimate Parent Common Stock has been suspended under Ultimate Parent’s then-effective registration statements, then Parent shall only be required to cause the filing of the Form S-8 as soon as reasonably practicable after trading has been restored.

As promptly as reasonably practicable, but in any event no later than ten (10) Business Days, after the Closing Date, the Cash-Out Equity Award Holders will be paid by the Surviving Corporation, through its payroll system, payroll provider or the Company’s standard accounts payable procedures, as applicable, all amounts required to be paid to such holders in respect of Company Options and Company RSUs that are cancelled and converted pursuant to Section 2.8(a)(i) and Section 2.8(c)(i), respectively, less any required withholding pursuant to Section 2.12 and other authorized deductions.

(g) Further Actions. The Company shall take such action as is necessary to effect the treatment of Company Options, Company Restricted Stock and Company RSUs under this Section 2.8.

2.9 Exchange of Certificates.

(a) Payment Agent. Prior to the Closing, Parent shall (i) select a nationally recognized bank or trust company reasonably acceptable to the Company to act as the payment agent for the Merger (the “Payment Agent”); and (ii) enter into a payment agent agreement, in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Company, with such Payment Agent.

(b) Payment Fund. On the Closing Date, at or promptly following the Effective Time, Parent shall deposit (or cause to be deposited) with the Payment Agent, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, for payment to the holders of shares of Company Common Stock pursuant to Section 2.7, an amount of cash equal to the aggregate consideration to which such holders of Company Common Stock become entitled pursuant to Section 2.7 (the “Payment Fund”). Until disbursed in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, such cash shall be invested by the Payment Agent, as directed by Parent or the Surviving Corporation, in (i) short-term direct obligations of the United States, (ii) short-term obligations for which the full faith and credit of the United States is pledged to provide for the payment of principal and interest, (iii) short-term commercial paper rated the highest quality by either Xxxxx’x Investors Service, Inc. or Standard and Poor’s Ratings Services, or (iv) certificates of deposit, bank repurchase agreements or banker’s acceptances of commercial banks. To the extent that: (A) there are any losses with respect to any investments of the Payment Fund; (B) the Payment Fund diminishes for any reason below the level required for the Payment Agent to promptly pay the cash amounts contemplated by Section 2.7; or (C) all or any portion of the Payment Fund is unavailable for Parent (or the Payment Agent on behalf of Parent) to promptly pay the cash amounts contemplated by Section 2.7 for any reason, Parent shall, or shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, promptly replace or restore the amount of cash in the Payment Fund so as to ensure that the Payment Fund is at all times fully available for distribution and maintained at a level sufficient for the Payment Agent to make the payments contemplated by Section 2.7. Any income from investment of the Payment Fund will be payable to Parent or the Surviving Corporation as Parent directs. The Payment Fund shall not be used for any purpose other than the payment to holders of Company Common Stock as contemplated by Section 2.7.

(c) Payment Procedures. Promptly following the Effective Time (and in any event within three (3) Business Days), Parent and the Surviving Corporation shall direct the Payment Agent to mail to each holder of record as of immediately prior to the Effective Time of one or more certificates that immediately prior to the Effective Time represented issued and outstanding shares of Company Common Stock (other than Owned Company Shares and Dissenting Company Shares, as applicable) (the “Certificates”), if any, (i) a letter of transmittal in customary form (which will specify that delivery will be effected, and risk of loss and title to the Certificates will pass, only upon delivery of the Certificates to the Payment Agent (or effective affidavits of loss in lieu thereof in accordance with Section 2.11)), and (ii) instructions for effecting the surrender of the Certificates in exchange for the Per Share Price payable with respect to the shares of Company Common Stock formerly represented thereby pursuant to Section 2.7. Upon surrender of Certificates for cancellation to the Payment Agent, together with such letter of transmittal, duly completed and validly executed in accordance with the instructions thereto, the holders of such Certificates will be entitled to receive in exchange therefor an amount in cash equal to the product obtained by multiplying (x) the aggregate number of shares of Company Common Stock represented by such Certificates by (y) the Per Share Price, and the Certificates

so surrendered will forthwith be cancelled. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, no record holder of uncertificated shares of Company Common Stock (other than Owned Company Shares) (the “Uncertificated Shares”) will be required to deliver a Certificate or an executed letter of transmittal to the Payment Agent in order to receive the payment that such holder is entitled to receive pursuant to Section 2.7 in respect of such Uncertificated Shares. In lieu thereof, such record holder of Uncertificated Shares, upon receipt of an “agent’s message” by the Payment Agent (or such other evidence, if any, of transfer as the Payment Agent may reasonably request), will be entitled to receive in exchange therefor an amount in cash equal to the product obtained by multiplying (1) the aggregate number of shares of Company Common Stock represented by such holder’s transferred Uncertificated Shares by (2) the Per Share Price, and the transferred Uncertificated Shares will be cancelled. No interest will be paid or accrued for the benefit of holders of the Certificates or Uncertificated Shares on the Per Share Price payable upon the surrender of such Certificates and transfer of such Uncertificated Shares pursuant to this Section 2.9(c). Until so surrendered or transferred, outstanding Certificates and Uncertificated Shares will be deemed from and after the Effective Time to evidence only the right to receive the Per Share Price payable in respect thereof pursuant to Section 2.7.

(d) DTC Payment. Prior to the Effective Time, Parent and the Company shall cooperate to establish procedures with the Payment Agent and the Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) with the objective that the Payment Agent shall transmit to DTC or its nominee on the Closing Date an amount in cash, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, equal to (i) the number of shares of Company Common Stock (other than Owned Company Shares and Dissenting Company Shares) held of record by DTC or such nominee immediately prior to the Effective Time multiplied by (ii) the Per Share Price.

(e) Transfers of Ownership. If payment of the Per Share Price is to be made to a Person other than the Person in whose name the surrendered Certificate or transferred Uncertificated Share in exchange therefor is registered, it shall be a condition of payment that (i) the Person requesting such exchange present proper evidence of transfer or shall otherwise be in proper form for transfer reasonably acceptable to the Payment Agent and the Surviving Corporation and (ii) the Person requesting such payment shall have paid any transfer and other Taxes required by reason of the payment of the Per Share Price to a Person other than the registered holder of such Certificate or Uncertificated Share surrendered or shall have established to the reasonable satisfaction of the Surviving Corporation that such Tax either has been paid or is not applicable.

(f) No Liability. Subject to applicable Law, none of the Payment Agent, Parent, the Surviving Corporation or any other Party will be liable to a holder of shares of Company Common Stock for any amount properly paid to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Law.

(g) Distribution of Payment Fund to Parent. Any portion of the Payment Fund that remains undistributed to the holders of the Certificates or Uncertificated Shares on the date that is one year after the Effective Time will be delivered to the Surviving Corporation upon demand, and any holders of shares of Company Common Stock that were issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Merger who have not theretofore surrendered or transferred their Certificates or Uncertificated Shares representing such shares of Company Common Stock for

exchange pursuant to this Section 2.9 shall thereafter look for payment of the Per Share Price payable in respect of the shares of Company Common Stock represented by such Certificates or Uncertificated Shares solely to Parent and the Surviving Corporation (subject to abandoned property, escheat or similar Law), as general creditors thereof, for any claim to the Per Share Price to which such holders may be entitled pursuant to Section 2.7. Any amounts remaining unclaimed by holders of any such Certificates or Uncertificated Shares five (5) years after the Effective Time, or at such earlier date as is immediately prior to the time at which such amounts would otherwise escheat to, or become property of, any Governmental Authority, will, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, become the property of the Surviving Corporation free and clear of any claims or interest of any such holders (and their successors, assigns or personal representatives) previously entitled thereto.

2.10 No Further Ownership Rights in Company Common Stock. From and after the Effective Time, there will be no further registration of transfers on the records of the Surviving Corporation of shares of Company Common Stock that were issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, other than transfers to reflect, in accordance with customary settlement procedures, trades effected prior to the Effective Time. If, after the Effective Time, Certificates or Uncertificated Shares are presented to the Surviving Corporation for any reason, they will (subject to compliance with the exchange procedures of Section 2.9(c)) be cancelled and exchanged as provided in this Article II.

2.11 Lost, Stolen or Destroyed Certificates. In the event that any Certificates have been lost, stolen or destroyed, the Payment Agent shall issue in exchange therefor, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the holder thereof reasonably acceptable to the Payment Agent and the Surviving Corporation, the Per Share Price payable in respect thereof pursuant to Section 2.7. Parent or the Payment Agent may, in its reasonable discretion and as a condition precedent to the payment of such Per Share Price, require the owners of such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificates to deliver a bond in such reasonable amount as it may direct as indemnity against any claim that may be made against Parent, the Surviving Corporation or the Payment Agent with respect to the Certificates alleged to have been lost, stolen or destroyed.

2.12 Required Withholding. Each of the Payment Agent, Parent, Merger Sub, the Company and the Surviving Corporation (each, a “Withholding Agent”) shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any amounts payable pursuant to this Agreement such amounts as are required to be deducted or withheld therefrom pursuant to any Law in respect of Taxes; provided, that each such Withholding Agent shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide the recipient of such payment a reasonable opportunity to provide tax forms (including an IRS Form W-9 or appropriate IRS Form W-8, as applicable) in order to reduce or eliminate such withholding; provided, however, that no notice shall be required for any deduction or withholding that is required for any Cash-Out Equity Award Consideration. To the extent that such amounts are so deducted or withheld and paid over to the appropriate Governmental Authority, such amounts will be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person to whom such amounts would otherwise have been paid in satisfaction of the corresponding obligations hereunder.

The execution, delivery and performance by Parent, Ultimate Parent and Merger Sub of this Agreement and the consummation by Parent, Ultimate Parent and Merger Sub of the Transactions require no action by or in respect of, or filing with, any Governmental Authority, other than (a) the filing of a certificate of merger with respect to the Merger with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware and appropriate documents with the relevant authorities of other states in which Parent and Ultimate Parent are qualified to do business, (b) compliance with any applicable requirements of the HSR Act, (c) compliance with any applicable requirements of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act and any other applicable state or federal securities Laws, (d) compliance with any applicable rules of the NYSE and (e) any actions or filings the absence of which would not have a Parent Material Adverse Effect.

4.4 Non-Contravention. The execution, delivery and performance by Parent, Ultimate Parent and Merger Sub of this Agreement, as applicable, and the consummation by Parent and Merger Sub of the Transactions do not and will not (a) contravene, conflict with, or result in any violation or breach of any provision of the certificate of incorporation or bylaws of Parent, Ultimate Parent or Merger Sub, (b) assuming compliance with the matters referred to in Section 4.3, contravene, conflict with or result in a violation or breach of any provision of any Law or (c) assuming compliance with the matters referred to in Section 4.3, require any consent or other action by any Person under, constitute a default, or an event that, with or without notice or lapse of time or both, would constitute a default, under, or cause or permit the termination, cancellation, acceleration or other change of any right or obligation or the loss of any benefit to which Parent, Ultimate Parent or any of their respective Subsidiaries is entitled under any provision of any agreement or other instrument binding upon Parent, Ultimate Parent or any of their respective Subsidiaries, with only such exceptions, in the case of each of clauses (b) through (c), as would not have a Parent Material Adverse Effect.

4.5 Disclosure Documents. The information supplied by Parent, Ultimate Parent or Merger Sub for inclusion in the Proxy Statement, at the time of any distribution or dissemination thereof and at the time of the Company Stockholder Meeting, will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they are made, not misleading. The representations and warranties contained in this Section 4.5 will not apply to statements or omissions included or incorporated by reference in the Proxy Statement based upon information supplied by the Company or any of its Representatives or advisors (in their capacities as such) specifically for use or incorporation by reference therein.

4.6 Litigation. As of the date of this Agreement, there are no Legal Proceedings pending or, to the knowledge of Parent, Ultimate Parent or any controlled Affiliates of Ultimate Parent, threatened against Parent, Ultimate Parent, Merger Sub or any of their respective Subsidiaries, other than any such Legal Proceeding that would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to prevent or materially delay the consummation of the Merger by Parent or Merger Sub, and none of Parent, Ultimate Parent, Merger Sub nor any of their respective Affiliates is a party to or subject to the provisions of any order which would reasonably be expected to prevent or materially delay the consummation of the Merger by Parent or Merger Sub.

4.7 Ownership of Company Securities; Section 203 DGCL. Parent and its Affiliates do not “own” (as defined in Section 203 of the DGCL), or “beneficially own” (within the meaning of Regulation 13D promulgated under the Exchange Act), any shares of Company Common Stock, Company Securities or other securities of the Company or any options, warrants or other rights to acquire Company Common Stock, Company Securities or other securities of, or any other economic interest (through derivative securities or otherwise) in, the Company. Neither Parent nor any of its “affiliates” or “associates” (each as defined in Section 203 of the DGCL) is, or has been at any time with the last three (3) years, an “interested stockholder” as defined in Section 203 of the DGCL. Neither Parent nor any of its Subsidiaries has taken, or authorized or permitted any of its Representatives to take, any action that would cause Parent or any of its “affiliates” or “associates” (each as defined in Section 203 of the DGCL) thereof to be deemed an “interested stockholder” as defined in Section 203 of the DGCL or otherwise render Section 251 of the DGCL inapplicable to the Merger.

4.8 Solvency. Neither of Parent and Xxxxxx Sub is entering into the Transactions with the actual intent to hinder, delay or defraud either present or future creditors of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries. Assuming the accuracy of the representations and warranties set forth in Article III, Parent and the Surviving Corporation will, after giving effect to the Merger (including the payment of all amounts payable pursuant to Article II in connection with or as a result of the Merger, any amounts that become payable in respect of the redemption of the Company Convertible Notes and all related fees and expenses of Parent, Merger Sub, the Company and their respective Subsidiaries in connection therewith), be Solvent at the Effective Time. As used in this Section 4.8, the term “Solvent” means, as of the Effective Time, (a) the sum of the assets, at a fair valuation, of Parent and Merger Sub (and, after the Merger, the Surviving Corporation) (on a consolidated basis) will exceed their debts, (b) each of Parent and Merger Sub (and, after the Merger, the Surviving Corporation) (on a consolidated basis) has not incurred debts beyond its ability to pay such debts as such debts mature, and (c) each of Parent and Merger Sub (and, after the Merger, the Surviving Corporation) (on a consolidated basis) does not have unreasonably small capital with which to conduct its business.

4.9 No Vote of Parent Stockholders. No vote of the stockholders of Parent or the holders of any other securities of Parent or Ultimate Parent (equity or otherwise) is required by any Law, the certificate of incorporation or bylaws or other equivalent organizational documents of Parent or Ultimate Parent or the applicable rules of any exchange on which securities of Parent or Ultimate Parent are traded, in order for Parent or Ultimate Parent to consummate the Transactions. For purposes of this Section 4.9, “Parent” or “Ultimate Parent” also includes the equity holders of, or parent company of, Parent or Ultimate Parent, as applicable.

4.10 Finders’ Fees. There is no investment banker, broker, finder or other intermediary that has been retained by or is authorized to act on behalf of Parent, Merger Sub or any of their respective Subsidiaries who is entitled to any fee or commission from Parent, Merger Sub or any of their respective Affiliates in connection with the Transactions, except that Parent has employed Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC and Lazard Freres & Co. LLC as its financial advisors.

4.11 Sufficient Funds. As of the Closing, Parent shall have cash and other immediately available funds sufficient to consummate the Merger and to satisfy all of Parent and Merger Sub’s monetary obligations under this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything set forth herein to the contrary, the obligations of Xxxxxx and Xxxxxx Sub hereunder are not subject to any condition with respect to Parent or Merger Sub’s ability to obtain financing for the Merger.

4.12 National Security Matters. None of Parent, Merger Sub or any of their respective Affiliates is a “foreign person” within the meaning of 31 C.F.R. § 800.244, and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are accordingly not “covered transactions” within the meaning of 31 C.F.R. § 800.213.

4.13 Operations of Merger Sub. The authorized capital stock of Merger Sub consists solely of 100 shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, all of which are validly issued and outstanding. Merger Sub has been formed solely for the purpose of engaging in the Merger, and, prior to the Effective Time, Merger Sub shall not have engaged in any other business activities and shall not have incurred liabilities or obligations other than as contemplated by this Agreement or incident to its formation. Parent owns beneficially and of record all of the outstanding capital stock and other equity and voting interest in, Merger Sub free and clear of all Liens (other than Permitted Liens).

4.14 Parent and Management Arrangements. Parent has disclosed to the Company all Contracts (and, with respect to those that are written, Parent has furnished to the Company correct and complete copies thereof), if any, between or among Parent, Merger Sub or any Affiliate of Parent, on the one hand, and any member of the Company Board or officers or employees of the Company or its Subsidiaries, on the other hand.

4.15 Non-Reliance. Each of Parent and Merger Sub acknowledges that neither Parent nor Merger Sub is relying or has relied on any representations or warranties whatsoever in connection with the Transactions, express or implied, except as set forth in Article III (or in the certificate delivered pursuant to Section 7.2(d)). The Company has made available to Parent and Merger Sub, and may continue to make available, certain estimates, projections and other forecasts for the business of the Company and its Subsidiaries and certain plan and budget information. Each of Parent and Merger Sub acknowledges that these estimates, projections, forecasts, plans and budgets and the assumptions on which they are based were prepared for specific purposes and may vary significantly from each other. Further, each of Parent and Merger Sub acknowledges that there are uncertainties inherent in attempting to make such estimates, projections, forecasts, plans and budgets, that Parent and Merger Sub are taking full responsibility for making their own evaluation of the adequacy and accuracy of all estimates, projections, forecasts, plans and budgets so furnished to them (including the reasonableness of the assumptions underlying such estimates, projections, forecasts, plans and budgets), and that, except as set forth in Article III (or in the certificate delivered pursuant to Section 7.2(d)), none of Parent or Merger Sub is relying on any estimates, projections, forecasts, plans or budgets furnished by the Company, its Subsidiaries or their respective Affiliates and Representatives, and none of Parent or Merger Sub shall, and shall cause its Affiliates and their respective Representatives not to, hold any such Person liable with respect thereto.

4.16 No Other Representations or Warranties. Except for the representations and warranties expressly made by Parent, Ultimate Parent and Merger Sub in this Article IV or in any certificate delivered pursuant to this Agreement, none of Parent, Ultimate Parent, Merger Sub or any other Person makes or has made or is making any representation or warranty of any kind whatsoever, express or implied, at Law or in equity, with respect to Parent, Ultimate Parent or Merger Sub or their respective Affiliates or business, operations, assets, liabilities, condition (financial or otherwise), notwithstanding the delivery or disclosure to the Company or any of its Affiliates or Representatives of any documentation, forecasts or other information with respect to any one or more of the foregoing. Except for the representations and warranties expressly made by the Company in Article III or in any certificate delivered pursuant to this Agreement, Parent, Ultimate Parent and Merger Sub hereby acknowledge that neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries, nor any other Person, makes or has made or is making any other representation or warranty of any kind whatsoever, express or implied, at Law or in equity, with respect to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or their Affiliates or their respective business, operations, assets, liabilities, condition (financial or otherwise), notwithstanding the delivery or disclosure to Parent, Ultimate Parent, Merger Sub or any of their respective Affiliates or Representatives of any documentation, forecasts or other information with respect to any one or more of the foregoing.

Effective Time, the Company will be required to enforce, and will not be permitted to waive, terminate or modify, any provision of any existing standstill (or similar provision that prohibits or purports to prohibit a proposal being made to the Company Board (or any committee thereof)), unless (A) the Company Board (or any committee thereof) has determined in good faith, after consultation with its outside legal counsel, that failure to take such action would be reasonably likely to be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under applicable Law, and (B) the Company promptly (and in any event within twenty-four (24) hours) notifies Parent in writing of any such waiver, amendment or release.

Subject to applicable Law and any applicable “clean team” or similar arrangement, the Company shall provide to Parent any non-public information or data that is provided to any Person given such access that was not previously made available to Parent substantially concurrently with the time it is provided to such Person.

(c) Company Board Recommendation Change; Entry into Alternative Acquisition Agreement.

(i) the Company Board (or a committee thereof) may effect a Company Board Recommendation Change in response to an Intervening Event if the Company Board (or a committee thereof) determines in good faith (after consultation with its outside legal counsel) that the failure to do so would be reasonably likely to be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under applicable Law; provided, that the Company Board (or a committee thereof) shall not effect such a Company Board Recommendation Change unless:

(A) the Company has provided prior written notice to Parent at least four (4) Business Days in advance to the effect that the Company Board (or a committee thereof) intends to effect a Company Board Recommendation Change in response to an Intervening Event, which notice shall specify the basis for such Company Board Recommendation Change, including all material information available to the Company with respect to such Intervening Event; and

(B) prior to effecting such Company Board Recommendation Change in response to an Intervening Event, (1) the Company and its Representatives, during such four (4) Business Day period, have negotiated with Parent and its Representatives in good faith (to the extent that Parent desires to so negotiate) to enable Parent to make such adjustments to the terms and conditions of this Agreement in such a manner that would obviate the need to effect such Company Board Recommendation Change and (2) the Company Board shall have considered in good faith any proposal by Parent to make adjustments to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, and shall have determined in good faith (after consultation with its outside legal counsel), that even after giving effect to such adjustments proposed by Parent, the failure to effect a Company Board Recommendation Change would continue to be reasonably likely to be inconsistent with the Company Board’s fiduciary duties under applicable Law; or

(ii) if the Company has received an Acquisition Proposal that did not result from a breach of Section 5.3(a) or Section 5.3(b) (other than a de minimis breach) that the Company Board has determined in good faith (after consultation with its financial advisors and outside legal counsel) constitutes a Superior Proposal, then the Company Board may (x) effect a Company Board Recommendation Change with respect to such Acquisition Proposal; or (y) cause the Company to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1(h) in order to enter into an Alternative Acquisition Agreement with respect to such Acquisition Proposal; provided, that the Company Board (or a committee thereof) shall not take any action described in the foregoing clauses (x) and (y) unless:

(A) (1) the Company has provided prior written notice to Parent at least four (4) Business Days in advance (such notice period, including any extension thereto in accordance with this Section 5.3(c)(ii)(A), the “Notice Period”) to the effect that the Company Board (or a committee thereof) intends to take the actions described in subclauses (x) or (y) of Section 5.3(c)(ii), including the identity of the Person or Group making such Acquisition Proposal, the material terms thereof and copies of all definitive agreements relating to such Acquisition Proposal; and (2) prior to effecting such Company Board Recommendation Change or termination with respect to such Acquisition Proposal, (x) the Company and its Representatives, during the Notice Period, have negotiated with Parent and its Representatives in good faith (to the extent that Parent desires to so negotiate) to enable Parent to make such adjustments to the terms and conditions of this Agreement in such a manner that would obviate the need to effect a Company Board Recommendation Change or termination with respect to such Acquisition Proposal and (y) the Company Board shall have considered in good faith any proposal by Parent to make adjustments to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, and shall have determined in good faith (after consultation with its financial advisors and outside legal counsel), that even after giving effect to such adjustments proposed by Parent such Superior Proposal still constitutes a Superior Proposal and the failure to either (x) effect a Company Board Recommendation Change in connection therewith or (y) terminate this Agreement to enter into such Acquisition Proposal would continue to be reasonably likely to be inconsistent with the Company Board’s fiduciary duties under applicable Law; provided, that in the event of any material revision, modification or amendment to such Acquisition Proposal (it being understood that any change to the financial

terms of such proposal shall be deemed a material modification), the Company will be required to deliver a new written notice to Parent and to comply with the requirements of this Section 5.3(c)(ii)(A) with respect to such new written notice, it being understood that the “Notice Period” in respect of such new written notice will be extended for an additional two (2) Business Days after notification of such change.

(d) No Change in Company Board Recommendation or Entry into an Alternative Acquisition Agreement. Except as permitted by Section 5.3(c), the Company Board (or any committee thereof) shall not:

(i) (A) withhold, withdraw, qualify, amend or modify, or publicly propose to withhold, withdraw, qualify, amend or modify, the Company Board Recommendation in a manner adverse to Parent, including failing to include the Company Board Recommendation in the Proxy Statement; (B) fail to recommend against a tender or exchange offer related to an Acquisition Proposal in any position taken in accordance with Rules 14d-9 and 14e-2 promulgated under the Exchange Act by the close of business on the tenth (10th) Business Day after the commencement of such Acquisition Proposal, (C) adopt, endorse, approve, recommend or declare advisable, or propose publicly to adopt, endorse, approve, recommend or declare advisable, or submit to the Company Stockholders for approval or adoption, any Acquisition Proposal; or (D) fail to publicly reaffirm the Company Board Recommendation within ten (10) Business Days of receiving a written request from Parent to provide such public reaffirmation following receipt by the Company of a publicly announced Acquisition Proposal (provided, that Parent may deliver only one (1) such request with respect to any Acquisition Proposal) (any action described in clauses (A)-(D) (or, in respect of an Intervening Event, described in clause (A) only), a “Company Board Recommendation Change”); provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, none of (1) the factually accurate disclosure by the Company to Parent of the receipt of an Acquisition Proposal or the occurrence of an Intervening Event, (2) the determination by the Company Board (or a committee thereof) that an Acquisition Proposal constitutes a Superior Proposal or that an Intervening Event has occurred; (3) the public disclosure by the Company of (x) the Intervening Event or (y) its determination that an Acquisition Proposal constitutes a Superior Proposal, in each case, so long as such disclosure also states that no Company Board Recommendation Change or termination of this Agreement shall occur until the expiration of the applicable notice period contemplated by Section 5.3(c) has occurred and promptly after the end of such notice period the Company shall either (x) issue a public press release stating that the prior Acquisition Proposal no longer constitutes a Superior Proposal or that there is no longer an Intervening Event or (y) make a Company Board Recommendation Change or terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1(h), or (4) the delivery by the Company of any notice contemplated by Section 5.3(c) will constitute a Company Board Recommendation Change; or

(ii) cause or permit the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to enter into an Alternative Acquisition Agreement.

(e) Notice. From and after the date of this Agreement until the earlier to occur of the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Article VIII and the Effective Time, the Company shall as promptly as reasonably practicable (and, in any event, within twenty-four (24) hours) notify Parent in writing if any Acquisition Proposal or any proposals or offers that would reasonably be expected to lead to an Acquisition Proposal are received by the

Company, its Subsidiaries or any of their Representatives. Such notice must include (i) the identity of the Person or Group making such Acquisition Proposal or such proposal or offer, and (ii) a copy of any such Acquisition Proposal or any such proposal or offer made in writing that would reasonably be expected to lead to an Acquisition Proposal, which may be redacted to the extent necessary to protect confidential information of the Person making such Acquisition Proposal offer or proposal (or, if made orally, a reasonably detailed description of such Acquisition Proposal, proposal or offer). Thereafter, the Company must keep Parent (and its outside counsel) reasonably informed, on a prompt basis (and in any event, within twenty-four (24) hours), of the status and material terms of any such Acquisition Proposal (including with respect to any change in price or other material amendments) and the status of any related discussions or negotiations. The Company will, promptly upon receipt or delivery thereof (and in any event within twenty-four (24) hours), provide Parent with copies of all drafts and final versions of definitive agreements, including schedules and exhibits thereto (in each case, or substantial and material portions thereof) (which may be redacted to the extent necessary to protect confidential information of the Person making such Acquisition Proposal), relating to such Acquisition Proposal, in each case, exchanged between the Company or any of its Representatives, on the one hand, and the Person making such Acquisition Proposal or any of its Representatives, on the other hand. The Company shall not, and shall cause its Subsidiaries not to, enter into any agreement with any Person subsequent to the date of this Agreement which prohibits the Company from providing any information to Parent in accordance with this Section 5.3(e).

(f) Certain Disclosures. Nothing contained in this Agreement will prohibit the Company or the Company Board (or a committee thereof) from taking and disclosing to the Company Stockholders a position contemplated by Rule 14d-9 or Rule 14e-2(a) promulgated under the Exchange Act (or any similar communication in connection with the making or amendment of a tender offer or exchange offer), making a customary “stop-look-and-listen” communication to the Company Stockholders pursuant to Rule 14d-9(f) under the Exchange Act (or any similar communication contemplated by Rule 14d-9(f) under the Exchange Act) or from making disclosures to the Company Stockholders pursuant to applicable securities Laws with regard to the Transactions or an Acquisition Proposal and a disclosure that constitutes only a “stop-look-and-listen” statement (or any similar communication contemplated by Rule 14d-9(f) under the Exchange Act) permitted by this Section 5.3(f) shall not be deemed to be a Company Board Recommendation Change.

5.4 No Control of the Other Party’s Business. The Parties acknowledge and agree that the restrictions set forth in this Agreement are not intended to give Parent or Merger Sub, on the one hand, or the Company, on the other hand, directly or indirectly, the right to control or direct the business or operations of the other at any time prior to the Effective Time. Prior to the Effective Time, each of Parent, Merger Sub and the Company shall exercise, consistent with the terms, conditions and restrictions of this Agreement, complete control and supervision over their own business and operations.

Each of Parent, Ultimate Parent and Merger Sub shall (and shall cause their respective Affiliates to, if applicable), on the one hand, and the Company (and its Affiliates, if applicable), on the other hand, shall, within ten (10) Business Days following the date of this Agreement, to the extent required, file with the FTC and the Antitrust Division of the DOJ a Notification and Report Form relating to this Agreement and the Merger as required by the HSR Act. Each of Parent, Ultimate Parent, Merger Sub and the Company shall (and shall cause their respective Affiliates to, if applicable) (A) cooperate and coordinate with the other in the making of such filings; (B) supply the other (or cause the other to be supplied) with any information that may be required in order to make such filings; (C) supply (or cause to be supplied) promptly any additional information that may be required or requested by the FTC, the DOJ or the Governmental Authorities of any other applicable jurisdiction, including prompt compliance with any Second Request; and (D) use reasonable best efforts to take all action

Each of Parent, Ultimate Parent and Merger Sub shall (and shall cause their respective Affiliates to, if applicable), on the one hand, and the Company (and its Affiliates) shall, on the other hand, promptly inform the other of any substantive communication from any Governmental Authority regarding the Merger in connection with such filings. If a Party or any of its Affiliates receives any comments or a request for additional information from any Governmental Authority with respect to the Merger pursuant to the HSR Act or any other Antitrust Laws applicable to the Merger, then such Party shall make (or cause to be made), as promptly as practicable and after consultation with the other Parties, an appropriate response to such request; provided, that Parent or Ultimate Parent may, without the consent of the Company, voluntarily withdraw its notification under the HSR Act on one occasion and refile its HSR Act notification within two (2) Business Days unless otherwise agreed by the Parties, but no Party shall otherwise enter into any agreement or understanding with any Governmental Authority to delay or not to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby, or otherwise stay, toll or extend, directly or indirectly, any applicable waiting period under the HSR Act or other applicable Antitrust Law, without the consent of the other Party (treating Parent, Ultimate Parent and Merger Sub as one Party for this purpose); provided further, that in the event that any applicable Governmental Authority issues a Second Request in relation to this Agreement or the Merger, the Parties agree to use reasonable best efforts to be ready to certify substantial compliance within four (4) months after the date of receipt of such Second Request. For the avoidance of doubt, Parent and Merger Sub shall be solely responsible for payment of all filing fees in connection with filings made under the HSR Act and any other Antitrust Laws in connection with this Agreement or the Merger.

(b) Avoidance of Impediments. In furtherance and not in limitation of the other covenants in this Section 6.2, if and to the extent necessary to obtain clearances, consents, approvals, waivers, actions, waiting period expirations or terminations, non-actions or other authorizations pursuant to the HSR Act or any other Antitrust Laws applicable to the Merger, and to avoid or eliminate each and every impediment under any Antitrust Law and any other Laws applicable to the Merger as promptly as practicable and to ensure that no Governmental Authority enters any order, decision, judgment, decree, ruling, or injunction preliminarily or permanently restraining, enjoining or prohibiting the consummation of the Merger, each of Parent, Ultimate Parent, Merger Sub and the Company shall (and shall cause their respective Affiliates to, if applicable) offer, negotiate, commit to and effect, by consent decree, hold separate order or otherwise, and take all action necessary to avoid or eliminate each and every impediment and obtain all clearances, consents, approvals, waivers, actions, waiting period expirations or terminations, non-actions or other authorizations under the HSR Act and any other Laws as promptly as practicable, including (i) the sale, divestiture, transfer, license, disposition, or hold separate (through the establishment of a trust or otherwise), of any and all of the capital stock or other equity or voting interest, assets (whether tangible or intangible), rights, properties, products or businesses of Parent, Ultimate Parent, Merger Sub and their respective Affiliates (and, following

the Closing, the Company and its Subsidiaries); (ii) the termination, modification, or assignment of existing relationships, joint ventures, Contracts, or obligations of Parent, Ultimate Parent, Merger Sub and their respective Affiliates (and, following the Closing, of the Company and its Subsidiaries); (iii) the modification of any course of conduct regarding future operations of Parent, Ultimate Parent, Merger Sub and their respective Affiliates (and, following the Closing, the Company and its Subsidiaries); and (iv) any other restrictions on the activities of Parent, Ultimate Parent, Merger Sub and their respective Affiliates (and, following the Closing, of the Company and its Subsidiaries), including their ability to retain one or more of their respective operations, divisions, businesses, product lines, customers, assets, or rights or interests, or their freedom of action, with respect to the assets, properties, or businesses to be acquired pursuant to this Agreement (any such actions contemplated by this sentence, collectively, “Remedial Actions”), in each case, so as to allow the consummation of the Merger as soon as practicable and, in any event, to permit such consummation of the Merger prior to the Termination Date; provided, that Parent, Ultimate Parent and Merger Sub need not nor shall otherwise be required to take any action, including any Remedial Action that, individually or in the aggregate, together with one or more other Remedial Actions, would reasonably be expected to result in a Burdensome Condition. Parent, Ultimate Parent and Merger Sub shall oppose any request for, the entry of, and seek to have vacated or terminated, any order, decision, judgment, decree, injunction (preliminary or permanent) or ruling of any Governmental Authority that could restrain, prevent or delay any required consents, clearances, approvals, waivers, actions, waiting period expirations or terminations, non-actions or other authorizations applicable to the Merger, including by defending through litigation any action asserted by any Person before any Governmental Authority and by exhausting all avenues of appeal, including appealing properly any adverse decision or order (including any permanent or preliminary injunction) entered by any Governmental Authority promptly, and taking all steps reasonably necessary to vacate, suspend, or modify any decision, order or injunction, so as to permit such consummation of the Merger as promptly as practicable and, in any event, prior to the Termination Date; provided, that the costs and expenses of all such actions shall be borne by the Party incurring such cost or expense. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Agreement shall require the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates to enter into any agreement or consent decree with the DOJ, FTC or any other Governmental Authority, or take any Remedial Action, that is not conditioned on the Closing.

(c) Cooperation. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, the Company, Parent, Ultimate Parent and Merger Sub shall (and shall cause their respective Affiliates to), subject to any restrictions under applicable Laws, (i) promptly notify the other Parties of, and, if in writing, furnish the others with copies of (or, in the case of oral communications, advise the others of the contents of) any material communication received by such Person from a Governmental Authority in connection with the Merger and provide the other Parties a reasonable amount of time to review and discuss in advance (and consider in good faith any comments made by the other Parties in relation to) any proposed draft notifications, formal notifications, filing, submission or other written or oral communication (and any analyses, memoranda, white papers, presentations, correspondence or other data, information, materials or documents submitted therewith) made in connection with the Merger to a Governmental Authority by any such Person, except for the Parties’ HSR filings, (ii) keep the other Parties informed with respect to the status of any such submissions and filings to any Governmental Authority in connection with the Merger and any developments, meetings or discussions with any Governmental Authority in respect thereof, including with respect to (A) the receipt of any non-action, action, clearance, consent,

approval, waiver or other authorizations, (B) the expiration or termination of any waiting period, (C) the commencement or proposed or threatened commencement of any investigation, litigation (including any appeal or threatened appeal) or other administrative or judicial action or proceeding under applicable Laws, including any proceeding initiated by a private party, and (D) the nature and status of any objections raised or proposed or threatened to be raised by any Governmental Authority that could reasonably be expected to affect the Merger, and (iii) not independently participate in any substantive meeting, hearing, proceeding or discussions (whether in person, by telephone, by video or otherwise) with or before any Governmental Authority in respect of the Merger, without giving the other Parties reasonable prior notice of such meeting or substantive discussions and, unless prohibited by such Governmental Authority, the opportunity to attend and participate; provided that materials required to be provided pursuant to this section may be redacted (A) to remove references concerning the valuation of the Company, (B) as necessary to comply with contractual arrangements, (C) as necessary to comply with applicable Laws, and (D) as necessary to address reasonable privilege concerns; provided further, that a Party may reasonably designate any competitively sensitive material provided to another Party under this Section 6.2(c) as “Outside Counsel Only.” The foregoing obligations in this Section 6.2(c) shall be subject to the Confidentiality Agreement and any attorney-client, work product or other privilege. In each case with respect to Antitrust Laws, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Parent and Ultimate Parent shall, after consultation with the Company and consideration of the Company’s views in good faith, have principal responsibility for directing, devising, and implementing the strategy for (1) obtaining any such consents, clearances, approvals, waivers, actions, waiting period expirations or terminations, non-actions or other authorizations; (2) responding to any request from, inquiry by, or investigation by any Governmental Authority (including, subject to complying with the timing requirements set forth in Section 6.2(a), directing the timing, nature, and substance of all such filings or responses), (3) determining any actions to be taken under this Section 6.2 with respect to meetings and communications with, any Governmental Authority that has authority to enforce any Antitrust Law and (4) with respect to any litigation by any Person or Governmental Authority, or, any action asserted by any Person in any court or before any other Governmental Authority, and including in any appeal thereof.

(d) Other Actions. Except as specifically required by this Agreement, Parent, Ultimate Parent and the Company shall not (and each shall cause its Affiliates not to) take any action, or refrain from taking any action, the effect of which would be to materially delay or materially impede the ability of the Parties to consummate the Transactions. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Parent, Ultimate Parent and the Company shall not (and each shall cause its Affiliates not to) acquire or agree to acquire (by merging or consolidating with, or by purchasing a substantial portion of the assets of or equity in, or by any other manner), any Person or portion thereof, or otherwise acquire or agree to acquire any assets in the same line of business as the Company or its Subsidiaries (in the case of Parent or Ultimate Parent) or any assets in the same line of business as Parent or Ultimate Parent (in the case of the Company) if the entering into an agreement relating to, or the consummation of, such acquisition, merger or consolidation could reasonably be expected to (i) impose any material delay in the obtaining of, or materially increase the risk of not obtaining, any Permit, order, ruling, judgment or injunction or other approvals of any Governmental Authority necessary to consummate the Transactions or the expiration or termination of any applicable waiting period, (ii) materially increase the risk of any Governmental Authority asserting jurisdiction over the Transactions entering an order, ruling, judgment or injunction prohibiting the consummation of the Transactions, (iii) materially increase the risk of

not being able to remove any such order, ruling, judgment or injunction on appeal or otherwise, or (iv) materially delay or prevent the consummation of the Transactions. Without limiting the generality of this Section 6.2, the Company shall use its best efforts to take the actions set forth on Section 6.2(d) of the Company Disclosure Letter.

6.3 Proxy Statement.

(a) Proxy Statement. As promptly as reasonably practicable following the date of this Agreement (but in no event later than twenty (20) Business Days after the date of this Agreement), the Company (with the assistance and cooperation of Parent and Merger Sub as reasonably requested by the Company) shall prepare and file with the SEC a preliminary proxy statement (as amended or supplemented, the “Proxy Statement”) relating to the Company Stockholder Meeting. Subject to Section 5.3, the Company shall include the Company Board Recommendation in the Proxy Statement.

(b) Other Required Company Filing. If the Company is required to file any document other than the Proxy Statement with the SEC in connection with the Merger pursuant to applicable Law (such document, as amended or supplemented, an “Other Required Company Filing”), then the Company (with the assistance and cooperation of Parent and Merger Sub as reasonably requested by the Company) shall promptly prepare and file such Other Required Company Filing with the SEC. The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause the Proxy Statement and any Other Required Company Filing to comply as to form in all material respects with the applicable requirements of the Exchange Act and the rules of the SEC and NYSE.

(c) Furnishing Information. Each of the Company, on the one hand, and Parent and Merger Sub, on the other hand, shall furnish all information concerning it and its Affiliates, if applicable, as the other Party may reasonably request in connection with the preparation and filing with the SEC of the Proxy Statement and any Other Required Company Filing. If at any time prior to the Company Stockholder Meeting any information relating to the Company, Parent, Merger Sub or any of their respective Affiliates should be discovered by the Company, on the one hand, or Parent or Merger Sub, on the other hand, that should be set forth in an amendment or supplement to the Proxy Statement or any Other Required Company Filing, so that such filing would not include any misstatement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, then the Party that discovers such information shall promptly notify the other, and an appropriate amendment or supplement to such filing describing such information shall be promptly prepared and filed with the SEC by the appropriate Party and, to the extent required by applicable Law or the SEC or its staff, disseminated to the Company Stockholders.

(d) Consultation Prior to Certain Communications. The Company may not file the Proxy Statement or any Other Required Company Filing with the SEC without providing Parent and its counsel a reasonable opportunity to review and comment thereon and the Company shall consider in good faith all reasonable additions, deletions or changes suggested thereto by the other Parties or their respective counsel. The Company and its Affiliates, on the one hand, and Parent, Merger Sub and their respective Affiliates, on the other hand, shall not send a substantive, written communication to the SEC or its staff with respect to the contents of the Proxy Statement or any Other Required Company Filing, as the case may be, without providing the other Party a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on such written communication and each Party shall consider in good faith all reasonable additions, deletions or changes suggested thereto by the other Parties or their respective counsel.

(e) Notices. The Company, on the one hand, and Parent and Merger Sub, on the other hand, shall advise the other, promptly after it receives notice thereof, of (i) any receipt of a request by the SEC or its staff for any amendment or revisions to the Proxy Statement or any Other Required Company Filing; (ii) any receipt of comments from the SEC or its staff on the Proxy Statement or any Other Required Company Filing; or (iii) any receipt of a request by the SEC or its staff for additional information in connection with the items covered in clauses (i) and (ii) above. The Company will use reasonable best efforts to respond to any comments received from the SEC or its staff on the Proxy Statement or any Other Required Company Filing, as promptly as reasonably practicable, but in no case later than ten (10) Business Days after its receipt thereof, including by filing any required amendments to the Proxy Statement.

(f) Dissemination of Proxy Statement. Subject to applicable Law, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause the definitive Proxy Statement to be disseminated to the Company Stockholders as promptly as reasonably practicable following the filing thereof with the SEC, and in any event within three (3) Business Days following confirmation by the SEC that it will not review, or that it has completed its review of, the Proxy Statement, which confirmation will be deemed to have occurred if the SEC has not affirmatively notified the Company by 11:59 p.m., New York City time, on the tenth (10th) day after filing of the Proxy Statement with the SEC that the SEC will or will not be reviewing the Proxy Statement.

6.4 Company Stockholder Meeting.

(a) Call of Company Stockholder Meeting. The Company shall establish a record date for, duly call, give notice of, convene and hold a meeting of the Company Stockholders (the “Company Stockholder Meeting”) as promptly as reasonably practicable (and in any event, but subject to Section 6.4(b), to hold the Company Stockholder Meeting within thirty-five (35) days) following the mailing of the Proxy Statement to the Company Stockholders for the purpose of obtaining the Requisite Stockholder Approval. In furtherance of the foregoing, the Company shall conduct in a timely manner a “broker search” in accordance with Rule 14a-13 of the Exchange Act and establish a record date for the Company Stockholder Meeting in a manner to enable the record date for the Company Stockholder Meeting to be set so that such Company Stockholder Meeting will be duly called and held within the time period set forth in the foregoing sentence. Unless there has been a Company Board Recommendation Change pursuant to Section 5.3(c), the Company Board shall use its reasonable best efforts to solicit from Company Stockholders proxies to obtain the Requisite Stockholder Approval. The Company shall keep Parent informed with respect to proxy solicitation results as reasonably requested by Xxxxxx and shall provide such information and reasonable cooperation as Parent may reasonably request in connection therewith.

(b) Adjournment of Company Stockholder Meeting. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, nothing will prevent the Company from postponing or adjourning the Company Stockholder Meeting: (i) to allow additional solicitation of votes in order to obtain the Requisite Stockholder Approval; (ii) if there are holders of an insufficient number of

shares of the Company Common Stock present or represented by proxy at the Company Stockholder Meeting to constitute a quorum at the Company Stockholder Meeting; (iii) if the Company is required to postpone or adjourn the Company Stockholder Meeting by applicable Law or a request from the SEC or its staff; or (iv) in order to give the Company Stockholders sufficient time to evaluate any information or disclosure that the Company has sent to the Company Stockholders or otherwise made available to the Company Stockholders (including in connection with any Company Board Recommendation Change); provided, however, that in the case of the foregoing clauses (i) or (ii), in no event shall the Company Stockholder Meeting be postponed or adjourned by the Company more than twice or for more than twenty (20) Business Days, in the aggregate, with such postponement or adjournment at the request of Parent pursuant to this Section 6.4(b), beyond the originally scheduled date of the Company Stockholder Meeting without Parent’s written consent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). If, at the time of the Company Stockholder Meeting, a quorum has not been established or the Company has not received proxies representing a sufficient number of shares of Company Common Stock for the Requisite Stockholder Approval, then the Company shall, at the written request of Parent (to the extent permitted by Law), adjourn the Company Stockholder Meeting to a date specified by Parent; provided, however, that in no event shall the Company Stockholder Meeting be postponed or adjourned at the request of Parent more than twice or for more than twenty (20) Business Days, in the aggregate, without the prior written consent of the Company (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

6.5 Indebtedness . At or prior to the Effective Time, Parent shall (or shall provide to the Company funds in an amount equal to the amount necessary for the Company to) repay and discharge in full all Payoff Debt. The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to (a) obtain at least two (2) Business Days prior to the Closing Date one or more fully executed copies of customary pay-off letters (each, in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Parent) certifying that upon payoff (i) the Company Indebtedness and any indebtedness (including any accrued and unpaid interest) incurred by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries in accordance with Section 5.2(f) and identified in writing by Parent to the Company at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the Closing Date (such indebtedness, together with the Company Indebtedness, the “Payoff Debt”) has been discharged and paid in full and that all commitments and obligations thereunder have been terminated in full (other than indemnities and other contingent obligations expressly meant to survive termination), (ii) releasing any and all related Liens on any of the assets or properties of the Company and its Subsidiaries securing such Payoff Debt and (iii) authorizing the filing of UCC-3 termination statements (or other comparable documents) for all UCC-1 financing statements (or other comparable documents) filed in connection with any such Lien and other customary filings, releases, terminations or instruments of discharge, in each case effective upon the receipt of funds by the applicable agents, trustees, holders and lenders party to any of the agreements governing such Payoff Debt, and (b) give (by no later than the date required under the applicable agreements governing such Payoff Debt) any necessary notices (including notices of prepayment and/or notice of commitment termination) to allow for the prepayment, payoff, discharge and termination in full of all commitments, obligations, debts and other liabilities under or with respect to such Payoff Debt on the Closing Date (other than indemnities and other contingent obligations expressly meant to survive termination).

6.6 Anti-Takeover Laws.

6.7 Access. At all times during the period commencing with the execution and delivery of this Agreement and continuing until the earlier to occur of the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Article VIII and the Effective Time, the Company shall, solely for purposes of furthering the Merger or integration planning related thereto subject to the restrictions or limitations as a result of COVID-19 or any COVID-19 Measures, afford Parent and its Representatives reasonable access, consistent with applicable Law, during normal business hours, upon reasonable advance request, to the properties, books, records, Contracts and personnel of the Company and its Subsidiaries and instruct its and their Representatives and personnel to reasonably cooperate with Parent, except that the Company may restrict or otherwise prohibit access to any documents or information to the extent that (i) any applicable Law or Contract requires the Company to restrict or otherwise prohibit access to such documents or information or providing access to such documents or information would violate or cause a default pursuant to, or give a third Person the right to terminate or accelerate the rights pursuant to, such Contract; (ii) access to such documents or information would give rise to the waiver of any attorney-client privilege, work product doctrine or other privilege applicable to such documents or information; (iii) access would result in the disclosure of any trade secrets (including source code) of the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any third Persons; or (iv) such documents or information are reasonably pertinent to any adverse Legal Proceeding between the Company and its Affiliates, on the one hand, and Parent and its Affiliates, on the other hand (provided, that the foregoing clause shall not restrict any Person’s rights to seek discovery pursuant to Law, and nothing herein shall restrict any Person’s rights to oppose any discovery request pursuant to Law); provided, that the Company shall give written notice to Parent of the fact that it is withholding such information or documents pursuant to clauses (i) through (iv) and thereafter the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to allow the disclosure of such information (or as much of it as possible) in a manner that would not violate any of clauses (i) through (iv). Nothing in this Section 6.7 shall be construed to require the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective Representatives to prepare any reports, analyses, appraisals, opinions or other information.

connection with the Merger or any of the other Transactions, in each case, without the Company’s prior written consent, and Parent and Merger Sub acknowledge and agree that any such contact shall be arranged and supervised by Representatives of the Company. All requests for access pursuant to this Section 6.7 must be directed to the Chief Legal Officer of the Company or other Person designated by the Company.

6.8 Section 16(b) Exemption. Prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall take all such actions as may be reasonably necessary or advisable hereto to cause the Merger, and any dispositions of equity securities of the Company (including derivative securities) (including the disposition, cancellation, or deemed disposition and cancellation of Company Common Stock, Company Options, Company Restricted Stock or Company RSUs) in connection with the Merger by each individual who is a director or executive officer of the Company, to be exempt pursuant to Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act.

6.9 Directors’ and Officers’ Exculpation, Indemnification and Insurance.

(a) Indemnified Persons. The Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries shall (and Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries to) honor and fulfill, in all respects, the obligations of the Company and its Subsidiaries pursuant to any indemnification agreements between the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, on the one hand, and any of their respective current or former directors or officers (and any Person who becomes a director or officer of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries prior to the Effective Time), on the other hand (each, an “Indemnified Person” and, collectively, the “Indemnified Persons”). In addition, during the period commencing at the Effective Time and ending on the sixth (6th) anniversary of the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries shall (and Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries to) cause the Organizational Documents of the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries to contain provisions with respect to indemnification, exculpation and the advancement of expenses that are at least as favorable as the indemnification, exculpation and advancement of expenses provisions set forth in the Organizational Documents of the Subsidiaries of the Company, as of the date of this Agreement. During such six (6) year period, such provisions may not be repealed, amended or otherwise modified in any adverse manner except as required by applicable Law.

(b) Indemnification Obligation. Without limiting the generality of the provisions of Section 6.9(a), during the period commencing at the Effective Time and ending on the sixth (6th) anniversary of the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation shall (and Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to) indemnify and hold harmless, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, each Indemnified Person from and against any costs, fees and expenses (including reasonable and documented attorneys’ fees and investigation expenses), judgments, fines, penalties, losses, claims, damages, liabilities and amounts paid in settlement or compromise in connection with any Legal Proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, whenever asserted, to the extent that such Legal Proceeding arises, directly or indirectly, out of or pertains, directly or indirectly, out of (i) the fact that an Indemnified Person is or was a director or officer of the Company or its Subsidiaries; (ii) any action or omission, or alleged action or omission, in such Indemnified Person’s capacity as a director or officer of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or taken at the request of the Company or such Subsidiary (including in connection with serving at the request of the Company or such Subsidiary as a director or officer, trustee or

fiduciary of another Person (including any employee benefit plan), regardless of whether such action or omission, or alleged action or omission, occurred prior to, at or after the Effective Time); and (iii) the Merger, as well as any actions taken by the Company, Parent or Merger Sub with respect thereto, except that if, at any time prior to the sixth (6th) anniversary of the Effective Time, any Indemnified Person delivers to Parent a written notice asserting a claim for indemnification pursuant to this Section 6.9(b), then the claim asserted in such notice will survive the sixth (6th) anniversary of the Effective Time until such claim is fully and finally resolved. In the event of any such Legal Proceeding, the Surviving Corporation shall (and Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to) advance all fees and expenses (including reasonable and documented fees and expenses of any counsel) as incurred by an Indemnified Person in the defense of such Legal Proceeding; provided, that any Person to whom fees and expenses are advanced shall be obligated to return the advanced fees and expenses if it is determined that such Person is not entitled to indemnification. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, none of Parent, the Surviving Corporation nor any of their respective Affiliates shall settle or otherwise compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to, or otherwise seek the termination of, any Legal Proceeding for which indemnification may be sought by an Indemnified Person pursuant to this Agreement unless such settlement, compromise, consent or termination includes an unconditional release of all Indemnified Persons from all liability arising out of or relating to such Legal Proceeding. Any determination required to be made with respect to whether the conduct of any Indemnified Person complies or complied with any applicable standard will be made by independent legal counsel selected by the Surviving Corporation (which counsel will be reasonably acceptable to such Indemnified Person), the fees and expenses of which shall be paid by the Surviving Corporation.

(c) D&O Insurance. During the period commencing at the Effective Time and ending on the sixth anniversary of the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation shall (and Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to) maintain in effect the Company’s current directors’ and officers’ liability and similar insurance (“D&O Insurance”) in respect of acts or omissions occurring at or prior to the Effective Time on terms (including with respect to coverage, conditions, retentions, limits and amounts) that are no less favorable in any material respect than those of the D&O Insurance in effect as of immediately prior to the Effective Time. In satisfying its obligations pursuant to this Section 6.9(c), the Surviving Corporation will not be obligated to pay annual premiums in excess of 300% of the amount paid by the Company for coverage for its last full fiscal year (such 300% amount, the “Maximum Annual Premium”). If the annual premiums of such insurance coverage exceed the Maximum Annual Premium, then Parent and the Surviving Corporation shall be obligated to obtain a policy with the greatest coverage available for a cost not exceeding the Maximum Annual Premium from an insurance carrier with the same or better credit rating as the Company’s current directors’ and officers’ liability insurance carrier. In satisfaction of the foregoing obligations, prior to the Effective Time the Company may purchase a prepaid “tail” policy with respect to the D&O Insurance from an insurance carrier so long as the aggregate cost for such “tail” policy does not exceed the Maximum Annual Premium. If the Company elects to purchase such a “tail” policy prior to the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation shall (and Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to) maintain such “tail” policy in full force and effect for a period of no less than six (6) years after the Effective Time and continue to honor its obligations thereunder in lieu of the maintenance of the D&O Insurance.

(d) Successors and Assigns. If Parent, the Surviving Corporation or any of their respective successors or assigns (i) consolidates with or merges into any other Person and is not the continuing or surviving entity in such consolidation or merger; or (ii) transfers or conveys all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any Person, then proper provisions will be made so that the successors and assigns of Parent, the Surviving Corporation or any of their respective successors or assigns shall assume all of the obligations of Parent and the Surviving Corporation set forth in this Section 6.9.

(e) No Impairment. The obligations set forth in this Section 6.9 may not be terminated, amended or otherwise modified in any manner that adversely affects any Indemnified Person (or any other Person who is a beneficiary pursuant to the D&O Insurance or the “tail” policy referred to in Section 6.9(c) (and their heirs and representatives), the “Other Indemnified Persons”) without the prior written consent of such affected Indemnified Person or other Person. Each of the Indemnified Persons or Other Indemnified Persons are intended to be third party beneficiaries of this Section 6.9, with full rights of enforcement as if a Party. The rights of the Indemnified Persons and Other Indemnified Persons pursuant to this Section 6.9 will be in addition to, and not in substitution for, any other rights that such Persons may have pursuant to (i) the Charter and Bylaws; (ii) the Organizational Documents of the Subsidiaries of the Company; (iii) any and all indemnification agreements entered into with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries; or (iv) applicable Law (whether at Law or in equity).

(f) Other Claims. Nothing in this Agreement is intended to, or will be construed to, release, waive or impair any rights to directors’ and officers’ insurance claims pursuant to any applicable insurance policy or indemnification agreement that is or has been in existence with respect to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries for any of their respective directors, officers or other employees, it being understood and agreed that the indemnification provided for in this Section 6.9 is not prior to or in substitution for any such claims pursuant to such policies or agreements.

in effect for such Continuing Employee immediately before the Effective Time; (ii) severance and termination benefits that are no less favorable than those applicable to such Continuing Employee immediately before the Effective Time, and which severance and termination benefits are set forth in Section 6.10(c) of the Company Disclosure Letter; and (iii) all other employee benefits that are no less favorable in the aggregate to those in effect for (or available to) such Continuing Employee under the Employee Plans as of the Effective Time or that are provided by Parent to similarly-situated employees of Parent (excluding any defined benefit pension plan benefits).

(d) Company Incentive Plans. With respect to each of the Company’s annual cash incentive plans set forth in Section 6.10(d) of the Company Disclosure Letter (each, a “Company Incentive Plan”), for the fiscal year in which the Effective Time occurs, the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries shall (and Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries to) pay to each Continuing Employee who remains employed with Parent, the Surviving Corporation or their respective Affiliates through the end of such fiscal year, at the same time or times that Parent, the Surviving Corporation or their applicable Affiliate pays annual bonuses in respect of such fiscal year to other similarly situated employees thereof, but in no event later than March 15 immediately after the end of such fiscal year, a bonus for such fiscal year (the “Annual Bonus”) that is equal to the greater of (i) the target Annual Bonus that such Continuing Employee would have been entitled to receive under the applicable Company Incentive Plan for such fiscal year, and (ii) the Annual Bonus that such Continuing Employee is entitled to receive under the applicable Company Incentive Plan based on actual level of achievement of the applicable performance criteria for such fiscal year (as determined after giving appropriate effect to the Transactions).

(e) New Plans. With respect to each benefit or compensation plan, program, policy, arrangement or agreement that is made available to any Continuing Employee at or after the Effective Time (each such plan, a “New Plan”), the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries shall (and Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries to) cause to be granted to such Continuing Employee credit for all service with the Company and its Subsidiaries prior to the Effective Time for which credit was provided by the Company prior to the Effective Time for purposes of eligibility to participate, vesting, entitlement to benefits, vacation and other time off accrual, equity or equity-based incentive compensation and severance entitlement or termination pay, except to the extent that such credit would result in duplication of benefits or the funding thereof for the same period of service. In addition, and without limiting the generality of the

foregoing, (i) the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause each Continuing Employee to be immediately eligible to participate, without any waiting period, in any and all New Plans to the extent that coverage pursuant to any such New Plan replaces the Continuing Employee’s coverage pursuant to a corresponding Employee Plan (each such plan, an “Old Plan”); (ii) for purposes of each New Plan providing health and welfare benefits, the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause all waiting periods, pre-existing condition exclusions, evidence of insurability requirements and actively-at-work or similar requirements of such New Plan to be waived for the Continuing Employees and their covered dependents; (iii) for purposes of each New Plan providing health and welfare benefits, the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries shall use commercially reasonable efforts to recognize or credit, in the manner determined by Parent in its discretion, any eligible expenses incurred by the Continuing Employees and their covered dependents during the portion of the plan year of the corresponding Old Plan ending on the date that Continuing Employees’ participation in the New Plan begins; and (iv) the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries shall use commercially reasonable efforts to credit the accounts of the Continuing Employees pursuant to any New Plan that is a flexible spending account plan with any unused balances in the account of such Continuing Employees under the Old Plan that is a flexible spending account plan. Any vacation or paid time off accrued but unused by a Continuing Employee as of immediately prior to the Effective Time will be credited to such Continuing Employee following the Effective Time.

To the extent requested in writing by Parent at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall, or shall cause its applicable Affiliate to, (i) take all actions necessary to terminate the Company 401(k) Plan, effective no later than the day immediately preceding the Effective Time and (ii) provide Parent with evidence that the Company 401(k) Plan has been terminated, with the termination of the Company 401(k) Plan effective no later than the day immediately preceding the Effective Time, pursuant to a duly adopted resolution of the Company or its applicable Affiliate (the form and substance of which shall be subject to review and approval by Parent, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) not later than seven (7) days prior to the Effective Time. If the Company 401(k) Plan is terminated in accordance with this Section 6.10(f), Parent shall or shall cause its applicable Affiliate to permit each Continuing Employee who participated in the Company 401(k) Plan immediately prior to the Effective Time to (i) participate in a tax-qualified defined contribution retirement plan sponsored by Parent or its applicable Affiliate (the “Parent 401(k) Plan”), effective as soon as possible after the Effective Time, but in no case later than the first day of the month following the Effective Time, and (ii) make rollover contributions of “eligible rollover distributions” (within the meaning of Section 401(a)(31) of the Code, including loans) in the form of cash, notes (in the case of loans) or a combination thereof, in an amount equal to the account balance distributed or distributable to such Continuing Employee from the Company 401(k) Plan to the Parent 401(k) Plan, provided that all such rollovers are in a single plan-to-plan transfer (to the extent the recordkeeper of the Company 401(k) Plan can accommodate such plan-to-plan transfer), and shall credit to such Continuing Employee for all purposes under the Parent 401(k) Plan all service credited by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries prior to the Closing under the Company 401(k) Plan, pursuant to the terms of the Company 401(k) Plan in effect as of the date of this Agreement.

(g) No Third-Party Beneficiary Rights.

(b) Prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with Parent with respect to its efforts to enter into arrangements with any or all of the Counterparties of the Capped Call Transactions to settle or terminate the Capped Call Transactions (which settlement or termination shall occur no earlier than the Effective Time) and the negotiation of any termination or settlement payment or valuation related thereto; provided that nothing in this Section 6.17(b) shall require the Company to (A) pay any fees, incur or reimburse any costs or expenses, or make any payment in connection with any Capped Call Transaction prior to the occurrence of the Effective Time, (B) enter into or effect any settlement, termination, instrument or agreement, or agree to any settlement, termination or any other change or modification to any instrument or agreement, that is effective prior to the occurrence of the Effective Time (other than any exercise or termination contemplated by the Capped Call Confirmations upon any conversion of Company Convertible Notes prior to the Effective Time) or (C) refrain from delivering, or delay the delivery of, any notice required by the terms of the Capped Call Transactions.

The representations and warranties of Ultimate Parent, Parent and Merger Sub set forth in this Agreement shall be true and correct (disregarding all qualifications or limitations as to “materiality,” “Parent Material Adverse Effect” or words of similar import) on the Closing Date as if made on and as of such date (except to the

extent that any such representation and warranty expressly speaks as of a specific date, in which case such representation and warranty shall be true and correct only as of such specified date), except where the failure of any such representations and warranties to be so true and correct, individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to prevent, materially delay, or have a material adverse effect on the ability of Parent, Ultimate Parent or Merger Sub to perform its obligations under this Agreement or to consummate the Transactions (a “Parent Material Adverse Effect”).

(d) Single Payment Only. The Parties acknowledge and agree that in no event will (i) the Company be required to pay the Company Termination Fee on more than one occasion, or (ii) Parent be required to pay the Parent Termination Fee on more than one occasion, whether or not the Company Termination Fee or the Parent Termination Fee, as applicable, may be payable pursuant to more than one provision of this Agreement at the same or at different times and upon the occurrence of different events.

(i) Parent’s receipt of the Company Termination Fee, to the extent owed pursuant to Section 8.3(b), any liability pursuant to Section 8.2(b), and Parent’s right to specific performance pursuant to Section 9.8, as applicable, will be the sole and exclusive remedies of Parent, Ultimate Parent and Merger Sub and each of the Parent Related Parties against (A) the Company, its Subsidiaries and each of their respective Affiliates; and (B) the former, current and future holders of any equity, controlling Persons, directors, officers, employees, agents, attorneys, Affiliates, members, managers, general or limited partners, stockholders, heirs and assignees of each of the Company, its Subsidiaries and each of their respective Affiliates (collectively, the “Company Related Parties”) in respect of or relating to this Agreement, any agreement executed in connection herewith and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, and upon payment of the Company Termination Fee to the extent payable, together with any fees, costs, expenses and interest payable pursuant to Section 8.3(f), none of the Company Related Parties will have any further liability or obligation to Parent or Merger Sub or any Parent Related Parties relating to or arising out of this Agreement, any agreement executed in connection herewith or the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby (except that the Parties (or their Affiliates) will remain obligated with respect to, and Parent and Merger Sub and its Subsidiaries may be entitled to remedies with respect to, the Confidentiality Agreement and any applicable clean team or similar arrangement, and Section 8.3(a), as applicable). The Company Related Parties are intended third party beneficiaries of this Section 8.3(e)(i).

(ii) The Company’s receipt of the Parent Termination Fee, to the extent owed pursuant to Section 8.3(c), any liability pursuant to Section 8.2(b), and the Company’s right to specific performance pursuant to Section 9.8, as applicable, will be the sole and exclusive remedies of the Company and each of the Company Related Parties against (A) Ultimate Parent, Parent, its Subsidiaries (including Merger Sub) and each of their respective Affiliates; and (B) the former, current and future holders of any equity, controlling Persons, directors, officers, employees, agents, attorneys, Affiliates, members, managers, general or limited partners, stockholders, heirs and assignees of each of Parent, its Subsidiaries and each of their respective Affiliates (collectively, the “Parent Related Parties”) in respect of or relating to this Agreement, any agreement executed in connection herewith and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, and upon payment of the Parent Termination Fee to the extent payable, together with any fees, costs, expenses and interest payable pursuant to Section 8.3(f), none of the Parent Related Parties will have any further liability or obligation to the Company or the Company Related Parties

(f) Acknowledgements. The Parties acknowledge and agree that the agreements contained in this Section 8.3 are an integral part of this Agreement and that, without this Section 8.3, the Parties would not have entered into this Agreement. Accordingly, if the Company or Parent fails to promptly pay any amount due pursuant to this Section 8.3, the Company or Parent, as applicable, shall pay to Parent or the Company, respectively, all fees, costs and expenses of enforcement (including reasonable and documented attorneys’ fees as well as reasonable and documented expenses incurred in connection with any Legal Proceeding initiated by such Party in connection with such enforcement), together with interest on the amount of the Company Termination Fee or the Parent Termination Fee, as applicable, at the prime lending rate as published in The Wall Street Journal, in effect on the date such payment is required to be made. The Parties further acknowledge that neither the Company Termination Fee nor the Parent Termination Fee shall constitute a penalty but are each liquidated damages, in a reasonable amount that will compensate each Party in the circumstances in which either the Company Termination Fee or Parent Termination Fee, as applicable, is payable for the efforts and resources expended and opportunities foregone while negotiating this Agreement and in reliance on this Agreement and on the expectation of the consummation of the Merger, which amount would otherwise be impossible to calculate with precision.

8.4 Amendment. Subject to applicable Law and subject to the other provisions of this Agreement, this Agreement may be amended by the Parties at any time by execution of an instrument in writing signed on behalf of each of Parent, Merger Sub and the Company (pursuant to authorized action by the Company Board (or a committee thereof)), except that in the event that the Company has received the Requisite Stockholder Approval, no amendment may be made to this Agreement that requires the approval of the Company Stockholders pursuant to the DGCL without such approval.

8.5 Extension; Waiver. At any time and from time to time prior to the Effective Time, Parent and the Company may, to the extent legally allowed and except as otherwise set forth herein: (a) extend the time for the performance of any of the obligations or other acts of the other Party, as applicable; (b) waive any inaccuracies in the representations and warranties of the other Party contained herein or in any document delivered pursuant hereto; and (c) subject to the requirements of applicable Law, waive compliance by the other Party with any of the agreements or conditions contained herein applicable to such Party (it being understood that Parent and Xxxxxx Sub shall be deemed a single Party solely for purposes of this Section 8.5). Any agreement on the part of a Party to any such extension or waiver will be valid only if set forth in an instrument in writing signed by such Party. Any delay in exercising any right pursuant to this Agreement will not constitute a waiver of such right, nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege.

9.3 Assignment. No Party may assign either this Agreement or any of its rights, interests, or obligations hereunder, by operation of Law or otherwise, without the prior written approval of the other Parties. Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement will be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by, the Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns. No assignment by any Party will relieve such Party of any of its obligations hereunder. Any purported assignment of this Agreement without the consent required by this Section 9.3 is null and void.

9.4 Confidentiality. Parent, Merger Sub and the Company hereby acknowledge that Ultimate Parent and the Company have previously executed the Confidentiality Agreement, that shall continue in full force and effect in accordance with its terms. Each Party and their respective Representatives shall hold and treat all documents and information concerning the other Party furnished or made available in connection with the Merger in accordance with the Confidentiality Agreement. By executing this Agreement, each Party agrees to be bound by, and to instruct their Representatives to be bound by, the terms and conditions of the Confidentiality Agreement as if they were parties thereto.

9.5 Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the documents and instruments and other agreements among the Parties as contemplated by or referred to herein, including the Confidentiality Agreement and the Company Disclosure Letter, constitute the entire agreement among the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, among the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof. The Confidentiality Agreement will (a) not be superseded; (b) survive any termination of this Agreement; and (c) continue in full force and effect until the earlier to occur of the Effective Time and the date on which the Confidentiality Agreement expires in accordance with its terms or is validly terminated by the parties thereto.

9.6 Third Party Beneficiaries.

9.7 Severability. In the event that any provision of this Agreement, or the application thereof, becomes or is declared by a court of competent jurisdiction to be illegal, void or unenforceable, the remainder of this Agreement will continue in full force and effect and the application of such provision to other Persons or circumstances will be interpreted so as reasonably to effect the intent of the Parties. The Parties further agree to replace such void or unenforceable provision of this Agreement with a valid and enforceable provision that will achieve, to the extent possible, the economic, business and other purposes of such void or unenforceable provision.

9.8 Remedies.

(a) Remedies Cumulative. Except as otherwise provided herein (including Section 8.3(e)), any and all remedies herein expressly conferred upon a Party will be deemed cumulative with and not exclusive of any other remedy conferred hereby or by Law or equity upon such Party, and the exercise by a Party of any one remedy will not preclude the exercise of any other remedy. Although the Company may pursue both a grant of specific performance and monetary damages, under no circumstances will the Company be permitted or entitled to receive both a grant of specific performance that results in the occurrence of the Closing and monetary damages (including any monetary damages in lieu of specific performance).

(b) Specific Performance.(i) The Parties acknowledge and agree that (i) irreparable damage for which monetary damages, even if available, would not be an adequate remedy would occur in the event that the Parties do not perform the provisions of this Agreement (including any Party failing to take such actions as are required of it hereunder in order to consummate this Agreement) in accordance with its specified terms or otherwise breach such provisions; (ii) the Parties will be entitled, in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at Law or in equity, to an injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief to prevent breaches (or threatened breaches) of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof; (iii) neither the ability of either Party to recover damages for fraud or any Willful and Material Breach of this Agreement nor the provisions of Section 8.3 are intended to and do not adequately compensate the Company, on the one hand, or Parent and Merger Sub, on the other hand, for the harm that would result from a breach of this Agreement, and will not be construed to diminish or otherwise impair in any respect any Party’s right to an injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief; and (iv) the right of specific enforcement is an integral part of the Merger and without that right, neither the Company nor Parent would have entered into this Agreement. The Parties agree not to raise any objections to (A) the availability of or granting of an injunction, specific performance or other equitable relief in accordance with this Section 9.8 to prevent or restrain breaches or threatened breaches of this Agreement by the Company, on the one hand, or Parent and Merger Sub, on the other hand; and (B) the specific performance of the terms

and provisions of this Agreement to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of, or to enforce compliance with, the covenants, obligations and agreements of Parent and Merger Sub pursuant to this Section 9.8. Any Party seeking an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement shall not be required to provide any bond or other security in connection with such injunction or enforcement, and each Party irrevocably waives any right that it may have to require the obtaining, furnishing or posting of any such bond or other security. The Parties further agree that (x) by seeking the remedies provided for in this Section 9.8, a Party shall not in any respect waive its right to seek any other form of relief that may be available to a Party under this Agreement, and (y) nothing set forth in this Section 9.8 shall require any Party to institute any proceeding for (or limit any Party’s right to institute any proceeding for) specific performance under this Section 9.8 prior to, or as a condition to, exercising any termination right under Article VIII (and pursuing damages after such termination), nor shall the commencement of any Legal Proceeding pursuant to this Section 9.8 or anything set forth in this Section 9.8 restrict or limit any Party’s right to terminate this Agreement in accordance with the terms of Article VIII or pursue any other remedies under this Agreement that may be available then or thereafter. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Parties acknowledge and agree that, while the Company may pursue a grant of specific performance prior to the termination of this Agreement, following a valid termination of this Agreement in accordance with Article VIII, under no circumstances shall the Company be permitted or entitled to seek a grant of specific performance to cause the Closing to occur; provided, that the Company may continue any ongoing proceeding for specific performance filed prior to a purported termination of this Agreement subject to the limitations set forth in this Agreement.

9.9 Ultimate Parent. The Parties agree and acknowledge that Ultimate Parent shall be a party to this Agreement solely for the purposes of Section 1.1 (to the extent the terms defined therein are used in the following Sections and Article of this Agreement) Section 3.28, Section 4.1, Section 4.2, Section 4.3, Section 4.4, Section 4.5, Section 4.6, Section 4.9, Section 4.16, Section 6.2, Section 6.12, Section 6.18 and Article IX.

9.10 Governing Law.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the mutual representations, warranties, covenants and agreements contained herein, and intending to be legally bound hereby, the parties hereto hereby agree, severally and not jointly, as follows:

1. Voting of Shares. Each Stockholder hereby agrees that during the period commencing on the date of this Agreement and continuing until the Expiration Date (such period, the “Term”), at the Company Stockholder Meeting and at any other meeting of the stockholders of the Company for any matter contemplated by this Agreement, however called, including any adjournment or postponement of each of the foregoing, such Stockholder shall, in each case to the fullest extent that the Subject Shares are entitled to vote thereon:

2. No Inconsistent Agreements.

3. Transfer of Subject Shares.

4. Further Assurances; Disclosure. From time to time and without additional consideration, each Stockholder shall execute and deliver, or cause to be executed and delivered, such additional instruments, and shall take such further actions, as Parent or the Company may reasonably request for the purpose of carrying out the intent of this Agreement.

11. Specific Performance. Each of the parties hereto acknowledges and agrees that (a) the covenants, obligations and agreements contained in this Agreement relate to special, unique and extraordinary matters, and (b) irreparable damage would occur and each such party would not have any adequate remedy at Law in the event that any of the obligations, undertakings, covenants or agreements of the other parties to this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached, and that monetary damages, even if available, would not be an adequate remedy therefor.

Without limitation of the foregoing, each of the parties hereto hereby further acknowledges and agrees that during the Term, each party shall be entitled to seek specific performance to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of, and to prevent or cure breaches of the covenants required to be performed by each of the other parties hereto under this Agreement, in addition to any other remedy to which such party is entitled at Law or in equity, including such party’s right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 10. Each of the parties hereto further agrees that it shall not take any position in any legal proceeding concerning this Agreement that is contrary to the terms of this Section 11.

12. Governing Law. This Agreement and all actions, proceedings, causes of action, claims or counterclaims (whether based on contract, tort, statute or otherwise) based upon, arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the actions of Parent, Merger Sub or the Company in the negotiation, administration, performance and enforcement thereof (including any claim or cause of action based upon, arising out of or related to any representation or warranty made in connection with this Agreement or as an inducement to enter into this Agreement), shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with the Laws of the State of Delaware, including its statutes of limitations, without giving effect to any choice or conflict of Laws provision or rule (whether of the State of Delaware or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the Laws, including any statutes of limitations, of any jurisdiction other than the State of Delaware.

13. Waiver. At any time and from time to time prior to the Effective Time, Parent and the Company may, to the extent legally allowed and except as otherwise set forth herein, (a) extend the time for the performance of any of the obligations or other acts of the other party hereto, as applicable; (b) waive any inaccuracies in the representations and warranties of the other party hereto contained herein or in any document delivered pursuant hereto; and (c) subject to the requirements of applicable Law, waive compliance by the other party hereto with any of the

agreements or conditions contained herein applicable to such party hereto (it being understood that Xxxxxx and Xxxxxx Sub shall be deemed a single party hereto solely for purposes of this Section 13). Any agreement on the part of a party hereto to any such extension or waiver will be valid only if set forth in an instrument in writing signed by such party hereto. Any delay in exercising any right pursuant to this Agreement will not constitute a waiver of such right.

14. Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH PARTY HERETO ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT ANY CONTROVERSY THAT MAY ARISE PURSUANT TO THIS AGREEMENT IS LIKELY TO INVOLVE COMPLICATED AND DIFFICULT ISSUES, AND THEREFORE EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT THAT SUCH PARTY HERETO MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING (WHETHER FOR BREACH OF CONTRACT, TORTIOUS CONDUCT OR OTHERWISE) DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE MERGER. EACH PARTY HERETO ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT (i) NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HERETO HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY HERETO WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER; (ii) IT UNDERSTANDS AND HAS CONSIDERED THE IMPLICATIONS OF THIS WAIVER; (iii) IT MAKES THIS WAIVER VOLUNTARILY; AND (iv) IT HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 14.

15. Assignment. No party hereto may assign either this Agreement or any of its rights, interests, or obligations hereunder, by operation of Law or otherwise, without the prior written approval of the other parties hereto, except as permitted in accordance with Section 3 of this Agreement. Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement will be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by, the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns. No assignment by any party hereto will relieve such party hereto of any of its obligations hereunder. Any purported assignment of this Agreement without the consent required by this Section 15 is null and void.

17. Severability. In the event that any provision of this Agreement, or the application thereof, becomes or is declared by a court of competent jurisdiction to be illegal, void or unenforceable, the remainder of this Agreement will continue in full force and effect and the application of such provision to other Persons or circumstances will be interpreted so as reasonably to effect the intent of the parties hereto. The parties hereto further agree to replace such void or unenforceable provision of this Agreement with a valid and enforceable provision that will achieve, to the extent possible, the economic, business and other purposes of such void or unenforceable provision.

18. Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the documents and instruments and other agreements among the parties hereto as contemplated by or referred to herein (including the Merger Agreement) constitute the entire agreement among the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, among the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof.

19. Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement is not intended to and shall not confer any rights or remedies upon any Person other than the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

20. Counterparts. This Agreement and any amendments hereto may be executed in one or more counterparts, all of which will be considered one and the same agreement and will become effective when one or more counterparts have been signed by each of the parties hereto and delivered to the other parties hereto, it being understood that all parties hereto need not sign the same counterpart. Any such counterpart, to the extent delivered by fax or .pdf, .tif, .gif, .jpg or similar attachment to electronic mail (any such delivery, an “Electronic Delivery”), will be treated in all manner and respects as an original executed counterpart and will be considered to have the same binding legal effect as if it were the original signed version thereof delivered in person. No party hereto may raise the use of an Electronic Delivery to deliver a signature, or the fact that any signature or agreement or instrument was transmitted or communicated through the use of an Electronic Delivery, as a defense to the formation of a contract, and each party hereto forever waives any such defense, except to the extent such defense relates to lack of authenticity.

21. Waiver of Appraisal. Each Stockholder hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to exercise, any rights of appraisal or rights of dissent from the Merger that such Stockholder may have with respect to the Subject Shares.

22. Non-Recourse. All claims, obligations, liabilities, or causes of action (whether in contract or in tort, in Law or in equity, or granted by statute) that may be based upon, in respect of, arise under, out or by reason of, be connected with, or relate in any manner to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, or the negotiation, execution, or performance of this Agreement (including any representation or warranty made in, in connection with, or as an inducement to, this Agreement), may be made only against (and such representations and warranties are those solely of) the Persons that are expressly identified as the parties in the preamble to this Agreement and the Persons party to the Merger Agreement or party to any other agreement executed in connection therewith (collectively, the “Contracting Parties”). No Person who is not a Contracting Party, including any current, former or future director, officer, employee, incorporator, member, partner, manager, stockholder, equityholder, Affiliate, agent, attorney, representative or assignee of, and any financial advisor or lender to, any Contracting Party, or any current, former or future director, officer, employee, incorporator, member, partner, manager, stockholder, equityholder, Affiliate, agent, attorney, representative or assignee of any of the foregoing, shall have any liability (whether in contract or in tort, in Law or in equity, or granted by statute) for any claims, causes of action, obligations, or liabilities arising under, out of, in connection with, or related in any manner to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or based on, in respect of, or by reason of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the negotiation, execution, performance, or breach of this Agreement.

23. No Agreement until Executed. This Agreement shall not be effective unless and until the Company Board has approved, for purposes of any applicable anti-takeover laws and regulations, and any applicable provision of the Charter, the Merger Agreement, this Agreement and any other Voting Agreements and the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, including the Merger.

24. Interpretation and Construction.

(a) When a reference is made in this Agreement to a Section, such reference is to a Section of this Agreement unless otherwise indicated and references to “paragraphs” or “clauses” are to separate paragraphs or clauses of the Section or subsection in which the reference occurs. When a reference is made in this Agreement to a Schedule, such reference is to a Schedule to this Agreement, unless otherwise indicated.

(d) The word “extent” in the phrase “to the extent” means the degree to which a subject or other thing extends, and does not simply mean “if.”

(e) The meaning assigned to each capitalized term defined and used in this Agreement is equally applicable to both the singular and the plural forms of such term, and words denoting any gender include all genders. Where a word or phrase is defined in this Agreement, each of its other grammatical forms has a corresponding meaning.

(f) When reference is made to any party to this Agreement or any other agreement or document, such reference includes such party’s successors and permitted assigns. References to any Person include the successors and permitted assigns of that Person.

(g) Unless the context otherwise requires, all references in this Agreement to the Subsidiaries of a Person will be deemed to include all direct and indirect Subsidiaries of such Person.

(h) Unless the context otherwise requires, any definition of or reference to any Law or any provision of any Law herein shall be construed as referring to such Law as from time to time amended, supplemented or modified, including by succession of comparable successor Laws and references to the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder or pursuant thereto.

(i) References to any agreement or Contract are to that agreement or Contract as amended, modified or supplemented (including by waiver or consent) from time to time.

(j) The headings set forth in this Agreement are for convenience of reference purposes only and will not affect or be deemed to affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement or any term or provision hereof.

(k) The parties hereto agree that they have been represented by legal counsel during the negotiation, execution and delivery of this Agreement and therefore waive the application of any Law, regulation, holding or rule of construction providing that ambiguities in an agreement or other document will be construed against the party drafting such agreement or document.

(l) All references to time shall refer to New York City time unless otherwise specified.

25. Other Agreements. Parent and the Company represent and warrant that they have entered into Voting Agreements with the other Specified Stockholders as of the date hereof, containing the same terms and conditions as this Agreement (collectively, the “Other Agreements”). Parent represents, warrants, covenants and agrees, that it has not entered into, and will not enter into, any other agreement with any stockholder of the Company relating to the voting of shares of Company Common Stock other than the Other Agreements. Without the prior written consent of the Stockholder, Parent shall not supplement, modify, amend, or waive the terms of the Other Agreements or provide consideration to the Specified Stockholders party to the Other Agreements that is not provided to the Stockholder.

Certificate of Incorporation of the Surviving Corporation

SECOND AMENDED AND RESTATED CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION

OAK STREET HEALTH, INC.

1.	The name of the corporation is: Oak Street Health, Inc. (the “Corporation”).

2.	The address of the registered office of the Corporation in the State of Delaware is Corporation Trust Center, 0000 Xxxxxx Xxxxxx, xx xxx Xxxx xx Xxxxxxxxxx, Xxxxxx of New Castle. The name of the registered agent of the Corporation at such address is The Corporation Trust Company.

3.	The nature of the business or purposes to be conducted or promoted is: management services and any lawful act or activity for which corporations may be organized under the General Corporation Law of Delaware (the “DGCL”).

4.	The total number of shares of all classes of stock which the Corporation shall have authority to issue is: One Hundred (100); all of such shares shall be shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share.

5.	The Corporation is to have perpetual existence.

6.	In furtherance and not in limitation of the powers conferred by statute, the board of directors of the Corporation is expressly authorized:

To make, alter or repeal the by-laws of the Corporation (the “By-Laws”).

To authorize and cause to be executed mortgages and liens upon the real and personal property of the Corporation.

To set apart out of any of the funds of the Corporation available for dividends a reserve or reserves for any proper purpose and to abolish any such reserve in the manner in which it was created.

By a majority of the whole board of directors, to designate one or more committees, each committee to consist of one or more of the directors of the Corporation. The board of directors may designate one or more directors as alternate members of any committee, who may replace any absent or disqualified member at any meeting of the committee. The By-Laws may provide that in the absence or disqualification of a member of a committee, the member or members thereof present at any meeting and not disqualified from voting, whether or not he or they constitute a quorum, may unanimously appoint another member of the board of directors to act at the meeting in the place of any such absent or disqualified member. Any such committee, to the extent provided in the

resolution of the board of directors, or in the By-Laws of the Corporation, shall have and may exercise all the powers and authority of the board of directors in the management of the business and affairs of the Corporation, and may authorize the seal of the Corporation to be affixed to all papers which may require it; but no such committee shall have the power or authority in reference to amending this Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, adopting an agreement of merger or consolidation, recommending to the stockholders the sale, lease or exchange of all or substantially all of the Corporation’s property and assets, recommending to the stockholders a dissolution of the Corporation or a revocation of a dissolution, or amending the By-Laws; and, unless the resolution or By-Laws expressly so provide, no such committee shall have the power or authority to declare a dividend or to authorize the issuance of stock.

When and as authorized by the stockholders in accordance with law, to sell, lease or exchange all or substantially all of the property and assets of the Corporation, including its goodwill and its corporate franchises, upon such terms and conditions and for such consideration, which may consist in whole or in part of money or property including shares of stock in, and/or other securities of, any other corporation or corporations, as its board of directors shall deem expedient and for the best interests of the Corporation.

7.	Elections of directors need not be by written ballot unless the By-Laws shall so provide.

Meetings of stockholders may be held within or without the State of Delaware, as the By-Laws may provide. The books of the Corporation may be kept (subject to any provision contained in the statutes) outside the State of Delaware at such place or places as may be designated from time to time by the board of directors or in the By-Laws.

Whenever a compromise or arrangement is proposed between the Corporation and its creditors or any class of them and/or between the Corporation and its stockholders or any class of them, any court of equitable jurisdiction within the State of Delaware may, on the application in a summary way of the Corporation or of any creditor or stockholder thereof or on the application of any receiver or receivers appointed for the Corporation under the provisions of Section 291 of Title 8 of the Delaware Code or on the application of trustees in dissolution or of any receiver or receivers appointed for the Corporation under the provisions of Section 279 of Title 8 of the Delaware Code order a meeting of the creditors or class of creditors, and/or of the stockholders or class of stockholders of the Corporation, as the case may be, to be summoned in such manner as the said court directs. If a majority in number representing three-fourths in

value of the creditors or class of creditors, and/or of the stockholders or class of stockholders of the Corporation, as the case may be, agree to any compromise or arrangement and to any reorganization of the Corporation as a consequence of such compromise or arrangement, the said compromise or arrangement and said reorganization shall, if sanctioned by the court to which the said application has been made, be binding on all the creditors or class of creditors, and/or on all the stockholders or class of stockholders, of the Corporation, as the case may be, and also on the Corporation.

The Corporation reserves the right to amend, alter, change or repeal any provision contained in this Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, in the manner now or hereafter prescribed by statute, and all rights conferred upon stockholders herein are granted subject to this reservation.

9.	Limitation of Liability. A director of the Corporation shall not be personally liable to the Corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL.

10.	Indemnification.

Right to Indemnification and Advancement. Each person who was or is made a party or is threatened to be made a party to or is otherwise involved (including involvement, without limitation, as a witness) in any actual or threatened action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (a “proceeding”), by reason of the fact that he or she is or was a director or officer of the Corporation or, while a director or officer of the Corporation, is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation or of a partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, including service with respect to an employee benefit plan (an “indemnitee”), whether the basis of such proceeding is alleged action in an official capacity as a director or officer or in any other capacity while serving as a director or officer, shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Corporation to the fullest extent authorized by the DGCL, as the same exists or may hereafter be amended (but, in the case of any such amendment, only to the extent that such amendment permits the Corporation to provide broader indemnification rights than permitted prior thereto), against all expense, liability and loss (including attorneys’ fees and related disbursements, judgments, fines, excise taxes or penalties under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended from time to time (“ERISA”) and any other penalties and amounts paid or to be paid in settlement) reasonably incurred or suffered by such indemnitee in connection therewith and such indemnification shall continue as to an indemnitee who has ceased to be a director, officer, employee or agent and shall inure to the benefit of the indemnitee’s heirs, executors and administrators; provided, however, that, except as provided

in this Section 10(a) with respect to proceedings to enforce rights to indemnification and advance of expenses (as defined below), the Corporation shall indemnify any such indemnitee in connection with a proceeding (or part thereof) initiated by such indemnitee only if such proceeding (or part thereof) was authorized in the specific case by the board of directors of the Corporation. The rights to indemnification and advance of expenses conferred in this Section 10(a) shall be contract rights. In addition to the right to indemnification conferred herein, an indemnitee shall also have the right, to the fullest extent not prohibited by law, to be paid by the Corporation the expenses incurred in defending any such proceeding in advance of its final disposition (an “advance of expenses”); provided, however, that if and to the extent that the DGCL requires, an advance of expenses shall be made only upon delivery to the Corporation of an undertaking (an “undertaking”), by or on behalf of such indemnitee, to repay all amounts so advanced if it shall ultimately be determined by final judicial decision from which there is no further right to appeal (a “final adjudication”) that such indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified for such expenses under this Section 10 or otherwise. The Corporation may also, by action of its board of directors, provide indemnification and advancement to employees and agents of the Corporation. Any reference to an officer of the Corporation in this Section 10 shall be deemed to refer exclusively to the President, Secretary and Treasurer of the Corporation, and to any Vice President, Assistant Secretary, Assistant Treasurer or other officer of the Corporation appointed by the board of directors, and any reference to an officer of any other enterprise shall be deemed to refer exclusively to an officer appointed by the board of directors or equivalent governing body of such other entity pursuant to the certificate of incorporation and bylaws or equivalent organizational documents of such other enterprise. The fact that any person who is or was an employee of the Corporation or an employee of any other enterprise has been given or has used the title of “Vice President” or any other title that could be construed to suggest or imply that such person is or may be an officer of the Corporation or of such other enterprise shall not result in such person being constituted as, or being deemed to be, an officer of the Corporation or of such other enterprise for purposes of this Section 10 unless such person’s appointment to such office was approved by the board of directors.

Procedure for Indemnification. Any claim for indemnification or advance of expenses by an indemnitee under this Section 10(b) shall be made promptly, and in any event within forty-five days (or, in the case of an advance of expenses, twenty days, provided that the director or officer has delivered the undertaking contemplated by Section 10(a) if required), upon the written request of the indemnitee. If the Corporation denies a written request for indemnification or advance of expenses, in whole or in part, or if payment in full pursuant to such request is not made within forty-five

days (or, in the case of an advance of expenses, twenty days, provided that the indemnitee has delivered the undertaking contemplated by Section 10(a) if required), the right to indemnification or advances as granted by this Section 10 shall be enforceable by the indemnitee in any court of competent jurisdiction. Such person’s costs and expenses incurred in connection with successfully establishing his or her right to indemnification, in whole or in part, in any such action shall also be indemnified by the Corporation to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law. It shall be a defense to any such action (other than an action brought to enforce a claim for the advance of expenses where the undertaking required pursuant to Section 10(a), if any, has been tendered to the Corporation) that the claimant has not met the applicable standard of conduct which make it permissible under the DGCL for the Corporation to indemnify the claimant for the amount claimed, but the burden of proof shall be on the Corporation to the fullest extent permitted by law. Neither the failure of the Corporation (including its board of directors, a committee thereof, independent legal counsel or its stockholders) to have made a determination prior to the commencement of such action that indemnification of the claimant is proper in the circumstances because he or she has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in the DGCL, nor an actual determination by the Corporation (including its board of directors, independent legal counsel or its stockholders) that the claimant has not met such applicable standard of conduct, shall be a defense to the action or create a presumption that the claimant has not met the applicable standard of conduct.

Insurance. The Corporation may purchase and maintain insurance on its own behalf and on behalf of any person who is or was or has agreed to become a director, officer, employee or agent of the Corporation or is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer, partner, member, trustee, administrator, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, limited liability company, trust or other enterprise against any expense, liability or loss asserted against him or her and incurred by him or her in any such capacity, or arising out of his or her status as such, whether or not the Corporation would have the power to indemnify such person against such expenses, liability or loss under the DGCL.

Service for Subsidiaries. Any person serving as a director, officer, partner, member, trustee, administrator, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, limited liability company, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, at least 50% of whose equity interests are owned by the Corporation (a “subsidiary” for purposes of this Section 10) shall be conclusively presumed to be serving in such capacity at the request of the Corporation.

Reliance. Persons who after the date of the adoption of this provision become or remain directors or officers of the Corporation or who, while a director or officer of the Corporation, become or remain a director, officer, employee or agent of a subsidiary, shall be conclusively presumed to have relied on the rights to indemnity, advance of expenses and other rights contained in this Section 10 in entering into or continuing such service. To the fullest extent permitted by law, the rights to indemnification and to the advance of expenses conferred in this Section 10 shall apply to claims made against an indemnitee arising out of acts or omissions which occurred or occur both prior and subsequent to the adoption hereof. Any amendment, alteration or repeal of this Section 10 that adversely affects any right of an indemnitee or its successors shall be prospective only and shall not limit, eliminate, or impair any such right with respect to any proceeding involving any occurrence or alleged occurrence of any action or omission to act that took place prior to such amendment or repeal.

Non-Exclusivity of Rights; Continuation of Rights of Indemnification. The rights to indemnification and to the advance of expenses conferred in this Section 10 shall not be exclusive of any other right which any person may have or hereafter acquire under the certificate of incorporation or under any statute, by-law, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise. All rights to indemnification under this Section 10 shall be deemed to be a contract between the Corporation and each director or officer of the Corporation who serves or served in such capacity at any time while this Section 10 is in effect. Any repeal or modification of this Section 10 or repeal or modification of relevant provisions of the DGCL or any other applicable laws shall not in any way diminish any rights to indemnification and advancement of expenses of such director or officer or the obligations of the Corporation arising hereunder with respect to any proceeding arising out of, or relating to, any actions, transactions or facts occurring prior to the final adoption of such repeal or modification.

Merger or Consolidation. For purposes of this Section 10, references to the “Corporation” shall include, in addition to the resulting corporation, any constituent corporation (including any constituent of a constituent) absorbed in a consolidation or merger which, if its separate existence had continued, would have had power and authority to indemnify its directors, officers and employees or agents, so that any person who is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of such constituent corporation, or is or was serving at the request of such constituent corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, shall stand in the same position under this Section 10 with respect to the resulting or surviving corporation as he or she would have with respect to such constituent corporation if its separate existence had continued.

Savings Clause. To the fullest extent permitted by law, if this Section 10 or any portion hereof shall be invalidated on any ground by any court of competent jurisdiction, then the Corporation shall nevertheless indemnify and advance expenses to each person entitled to indemnification under Section 10(a) as to all expense, liability and loss (including attorneys’ fees and related disbursements, judgments, fines, ERISA excise taxes and penalties and any other penalties and amounts paid or to be paid in settlement) actually and reasonably incurred or suffered by such person and for which indemnification and advancement of expenses is available to such person pursuant to this Section 10 to the fullest extent permitted by any applicable portion of this Section 10 that shall not have been invalidated.

11.

Preservation of Rights. A right to indemnification or to advancement of expenses arising under a provision of this Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation or the By-Laws shall not be eliminated or impaired by an amendment to this Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation or the By-Laws after the occurrence of the act or omission that is the subject of the civil, criminal, administrative or investigative action, suit or proceeding for which indemnification or advancement of expenses is sought, unless the provision in effect at the time of such act or omission explicitly authorizes such elimination or impairment after such action or omission has occurred.
