This Agreement and Plan of Merger (this “Agreement”), is entered into as of June 15, 2015, by and among METALICO, INC., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), TOTAL MERCHANT LIMITED, a Samoan limited company (“Parent”), and TM MERGER SUB CORP., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned Subsidiary of Parent (“Merger Sub”).

ARTICLE I

THE MERGER

Section 1.01 The Merger. On the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, and in accordance with the provisions of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the “DGCL”), Merger Sub shall be merged with and into the Company (the “Merger”) at the Effective Time. For the avoidance of doubt, the parties shall use their reasonable best efforts to have the Merger effected in accordance with Section 251 of the DGCL. As a result of the Merger, the separate corporate existence of Merger Sub shall cease and the Company shall continue its existence under the laws of the State of Delaware as the surviving corporation of the Merger. The Company, in its capacity as the corporation surviving the Merger, is sometimes referred to herein as the “Surviving Corporation.”

Section 1.02 Closing. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein, the closing of the Merger (the “Closing”) will take place at 1:00 p.m., New York City time, as soon as practicable and, in any event, no later than three (3) Business Days after the satisfaction or, to the extent permitted hereunder, waiver of all conditions to the Merger set forth in Article VI (other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing, but subject to the satisfaction or, to the extent permitted hereunder, waiver of all such conditions), unless this Agreement has been terminated pursuant to its terms or unless another time or date is agreed to in writing by the parties hereto. The Closing shall be held at the offices of K&L Gates LLP, 000 Xxxxxxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxx Xxxx, Xxx Xxxx 00000, unless another place is agreed to in writing by the parties hereto, and the actual date of the Closing is hereinafter referred to as the “Closing Date.”

Section 1.03 Effective Time. As promptly as possible on the Closing Date, the parties shall cause the Merger to be consummated by filing with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware a certificate of merger (the “Certificate of Merger”) in such form as is required by and executed in accordance with the DGCL. The Merger shall be effective as of the date and time of the filing of the Certificate of Merger with the Delaware Secretary of State, or at such later time as shall be agreed upon by Parent and the Company and specified in the Certificate of Merger (the “Effective Time”).

Section 1.04 Effects of the Merger. The Merger shall have the effects set forth herein and in the applicable provisions of the DGCL. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, and subject thereto, from and after the Effective Time, all property, rights, privileges, immunities, powers, franchises, licenses and authority of the Company and Merger Sub shall vest in the Surviving Corporation, and all debts, liabilities, obligations, restrictions and duties of each of the Company and Merger Sub shall become the debts, liabilities, obligations, restrictions and duties of the Surviving Corporation.

Section 1.05 Certificate of Incorporation; By-laws. At the Effective Time, (a) the certificate of incorporation of the Company shall be amended so as to read in its entirety as set forth in Exhibit A annexed hereto, and, as so amended, shall be the certificate of incorporation of the Surviving Corporation until thereafter amended in accordance with the terms thereof or as provided by applicable Law, in each case consistent with the obligations set forth in Section 5.10, and (b) the by-laws of the Company shall be amended so as to read in their entirety as set forth in Exhibit B annexed hereto, and as so amended shall be the by-laws of the Surviving Corporation until thereafter amended in accordance with the terms thereof, the certificate of incorporation of the Surviving Corporation or as provided by applicable Law, in each case consistent with the obligations set forth in Section 5.10.

Section 1.06 Directors and Officers. From and after the Effective Time, the directors of Merger Sub prior to the Effective Time shall be the directors of the Surviving Corporation and shall hold office until their respective successors are duly elected and qualified or until their earlier death, resignation or removal in accordance with the Certificate of Incorporation or bylaws of the Surviving Corporation. The individuals specified by Parent in writing to the Company at least two (2) Business Days prior to the Closing Date shall be the initial officers of the Surviving Corporation and shall hold office from and after the Effective Time until their respective successors are duly elected and qualified or until their earlier death, resignation or removal in accordance with the Certificate of Incorporation or bylaws of the Surviving Corporation.

Section 1.07 Treatment of Company Pay-off Loans. Immediately at the Effective Time, Parent shall cause each of the Company Pay-off Loans to be repaid in full in cash (including, for the avoidance of doubt, all principal, interest and any relevant premiums, penalties and all other obligations with respect thereto), and shall take all such actions as reasonably necessary or appropriate prior to the Effective Time so that the Company and each relevant lender shall thereafter have no further rights or obligations with respect thereto as of the Effective Time.

ARTICLE II

EFFECT OF THE MERGER ON CAPITAL STOCK

Section 2.01 Effect of the Merger on Capital Stock. At the Effective Time, as a result of the Merger, and without any action on the part of Parent, Merger Sub, the Company or the holder of any capital stock of Parent, Merger Sub or the Company:

(a) Cancellation of Certain Company Common Stock. Each share of Company Common Stock that is owned by Parent, Merger Sub or the Company (as treasury stock or otherwise) or any of their respective direct or indirect wholly owned Subsidiaries immediately prior to the Effective Time will automatically be cancelled and will cease to exist, and no consideration will be delivered in exchange therefor.

(b) Conversion of Company Common Stock. Subject to Section 2.04, each share of Company Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than (i) shares to be cancelled in accordance with Section 2.01(a), and (ii) Dissenting Shares) will be converted into the right to receive $0.60 in cash, without interest (the “Merger Consideration”).

(c) Cancellation of shares. At the Effective Time, all shares of Company Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time will no longer be outstanding and all such shares of Company Common Stock will be cancelled and will cease to exist, and, subject to Section 2.03, each holder of a certificate formerly representing any such shares (each, a “Certificate”) will cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive the Merger Consideration in accordance with Section 2.02 hereof.

(d) Conversion of Merger Sub Capital Stock. Each share of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of Merger Sub issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into and become one newly issued, fully paid and non-assessable share of common stock of the Surviving Corporation.

Section 2.02 Surrender and Payment.

(a) Within fifteen days from the date hereof, Parent shall deposit, or cause to be deposited, in escrow with the Escrow Agent, an aggregate amount in cash equal to the Escrow Amount, to be distributed as set forth herein and in accordance with the terms of the Escrow Agreement. The Escrow Amount shall be held under the sole dominion and control of the Escrow Agent until the earlier of (x) the delivery of confirmation from the Exchange Agent and the Company of receipt by the Exchange Agent of the full amount of the Payment Fund, less the Escrow Amount, from Parent in accordance with the terms and conditions of Section 2.02(b) hereof, in which case the Escrow Amount shall be automatically released by the Escrow Agent to the Exchange Agent, (y) subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 6.02 hereof (other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing) and the receipt of the Company Stockholder Approval (unless terminated prior to the date of the Company Stockholder Meeting), termination of this Agreement by the Company pursuant to Section 7.04(b) hereof based on the failure of Parent to pay the full amount of the Payment Fund in accordance with Section 2.02(b) hereof, in which case the Escrow Amount shall be automatically released by Escrow Agent to the Company, or (z) termination of this Agreement for any

other reason pursuant to the terms of Article VII (excepting termination by the Company pursuant to Section 7.04(b)), in which case the Escrow Amount shall be automatically released by the Escrow Agent to Parent; provided, however, that the Escrow Agent will not release such funds if the Escrow Amount is subject to a pending claim against it made by the Company in good faith.

(b) Prior to the Effective Time, Parent shall appoint an exchange agent reasonably acceptable to the Company (the “Exchange Agent”) to act as the agent for the purpose of exchanging the Merger Consideration for: (i) the Certificates, or (ii) book-entry shares which immediately prior to the Effective Time represented the shares of Company Common Stock (the “Book-Entry Shares”). On the day that is at least two (2) Business Days prior to the Effective Time, Parent shall deposit, or cause to be deposited, with the Exchange Agent sufficient funds to pay (i) the aggregate Merger Consideration that is payable in accordance with Section 2.01(b) hereof and (ii) the full amount due or payable with respect to the Company Pay-off Loans as contemplated by Section 1.07 hereof (such funds constituting the “Payment Fund”). If for any reason (including losses) the Payment Fund is inadequate to pay the amounts to which holders of shares or lenders shall be entitled under this Article II, Parent shall deposit or cause to be deposited in trust additional cash with the Exchange Agent sufficient to make all payments required under this Agreement, and Parent and the Surviving Corporation shall in any event be liable for the payment thereof. The Payment Fund shall not be used for any other purpose, except as otherwise agreed by the Company and Parent before the Effective Time. The Surviving Corporation shall pay all charges and expenses, including those of the Exchange Agent, in connection with the exchange of Company Common Stock for the Merger Consideration. As promptly as reasonably practicable after the Effective Time (but in no event later than two (2) Business Days after the Effective Time), Parent shall send, or shall cause the Exchange Agent to send, to each record holder of shares of Company Common Stock at the Effective Time, a letter of transmittal and instructions (which shall specify that the delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title shall pass, only upon proper delivery of the Certificates or transfer of the Book-Entry Shares to the Exchange Agent) for use in such exchange.

(c) Each holder of shares of Company Common Stock that have been converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration shall be entitled to receive the Merger Consideration in respect of the Company Common Stock represented by a Certificate or Book-Entry Share upon (i) surrender to the Exchange Agent of a Certificate, together with a duly completed and validly executed letter of transmittal and such other documents as may reasonably be requested by the Exchange Agent, or (ii) receipt of an “agent’s message” by the Exchange Agent (or such other evidence, if any, of transfer as the Exchange Agent may reasonably request) in the case of Book-

Entry Shares. Until so surrendered or transferred, as the case may be, and subject to the terms set forth in Section 2.03, each such Certificate or Book-Entry Share, as applicable, shall represent after the Effective Time for all purposes only the right to receive the Merger Consideration payable in respect thereof. No interest shall be paid or accrued on the cash payable upon the surrender or transfer of any Certificate or Book-Entry Share. Upon payment of the Merger Consideration pursuant to the provisions of this Article II, each Certificate or Certificates so surrendered shall immediately be cancelled.

(d) If any portion of the Merger Consideration is to be paid to a Person other than the Person in whose name the surrendered Certificate or the transferred Book-Entry Share, as applicable, is registered, it shall be a condition to such payment that (i) such Certificate shall be properly endorsed or shall otherwise be in proper form for transfer or such Book-Entry Share shall be properly transferred, and (ii) the Person requesting such payment shall pay to the Exchange Agent for remittance to the appropriate Governmental Entity any transfer or other Tax required as a result of such payment to a Person other than the registered holder of such Certificate or Book-Entry Share, as applicable, or establish to the reasonable satisfaction of the Exchange Agent that such Tax has been paid or is not payable.

(e) All Merger Consideration paid upon the surrender of Certificates or transfer of Book-Entry Shares in accordance with the terms hereof shall be deemed to have been paid in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to the shares of Company Common Stock formerly represented by such Certificate or Book-Entry Shares, and from and after the Effective Time, there shall be no further registration of transfers of shares of Company Common Stock on the stock transfer books of the Surviving Corporation. If, after the Effective Time, Certificates or Book-Entry Shares are presented to the Surviving Corporation, they shall be cancelled and exchanged for the Merger Consideration provided for, and in accordance with the procedures set forth, in this Article II.

(f) Any portion of the Payment Fund that remains unclaimed by the holders of shares of Company Common Stock twelve (12) months after the Effective Time shall be returned to Parent, upon demand, and any such holder who has not exchanged shares of Company Common Stock for the Merger Consideration in accordance with this Section 2.02 prior to that time shall thereafter look only to Parent for payment of the Merger Consideration. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Parent shall not be liable to any holder of shares of Company Common Stock for any amounts paid to a public official pursuant to applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Laws.

(g) Any portion of the Merger Consideration made available to the Exchange Agent in respect of any Dissenting Shares shall be returned to Parent, upon demand.

Section 2.03 Dissenting Shares. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, shares of Company Common Stock that are issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and which are held by a stockholder who is entitled to demand and properly demands appraisal of such shares pursuant to, and who complies in all respects with, the relevant provisions of Section 262 of the DGCL (such shares, the “Dissenting Shares”), shall not be converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration, but instead such holder shall be entitled to payment of the fair value of such shares in accordance with the provisions of Section 262 of the DGCL (and at the Effective Time, such Dissenting Shares shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be cancelled and shall cease to exist, and such holder shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive the fair value of such Dissenting Shares in accordance with the provisions of Section 262 of the DGCL), unless and until such holder shall have failed to perfect or shall have effectively withdrawn or lost rights to appraisal under the DGCL. If any stockholder shall have failed to perfect or shall have effectively withdrawn or lost his, her or its rights to appraisal, such holder’s Dissenting Shares shall thereupon be treated as if such shares had been converted, as of the Effective Time, into the right to receive the Merger Consideration, without any interest thereon. The Company shall give Parent (i) prompt notice of any written demands for appraisal of any shares of Company Common Stock, attempted withdrawals of such demands and any other instruments served pursuant to the DGCL and received by the Company relating to rights of appraisal, and (ii) the opportunity to participate in and jointly with the Company direct all negotiations and proceedings with respect to demands for appraisal under the DGCL. Neither Parent nor the Company shall, except with the prior written consent of the other, voluntarily make any payment with respect to, or settle, or offer or agree to settle, any such demand for payment, and, prior to the Effective Time, Parent shall not require the Company to make any payment with respect to any demands for appraisal or offer to settle or settle any such demands.

Section 2.04 Adjustments. Without limiting the other provisions of this Agreement, if at any time during the period between the date of this Agreement and the Effective Time, any change in the outstanding shares of capital stock of the Company shall occur (other than the issuance of additional shares of capital stock of the Company as permitted by this Agreement), including by reason of any reclassification, recapitalization, stock split (including reverse stock split) or combination, exchange or readjustment of shares, or any stock dividend or distribution paid in stock, the Merger Consideration and any other amounts payable pursuant to this Agreement shall be appropriately adjusted to reflect such change.

Section 2.05 Withholding Rights. Each of the Exchange Agent, Parent, Merger Sub and the Surviving Corporation shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise payable to any Person pursuant to this Article II such amounts as may be required to be deducted and withheld with respect to the making of such payment under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and applicable

Treasury Regulations issued pursuant thereto, or any provision of state, local or foreign Tax Law. To the extent that amounts are so deducted and withheld by the Exchange Agent, Parent, Merger Sub or the Surviving Corporation, as the case may be, such amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of which the Exchange Agent, Parent, Merger Sub or the Surviving Corporation, as the case may be, made such deduction and withholding; provided, however, that such parties may deduct such amounts only if such party shall (i) give the Person receiving payment reasonable advance notice of the intention to make such deduction or withholding, (ii) upon such Person’s reasonable request, explain the basis for such deduction or withholding, and (iii) cooperate with such Person to the extent reasonably requested to obtain reduction of or relief from such deduction or withholding, if possible.

Section 2.06 Lost Certificates. If any Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the Person claiming such Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed and, if required by Parent, the posting by such Person of a bond, in such reasonable amount as Parent may direct, as indemnity against any claim that may be made against it with respect to such Certificate, the Exchange Agent will issue, in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate, the Merger Consideration to be paid in respect of the shares of Company Common Stock formerly represented by such Certificate as contemplated under this Article II.

Section 2.07 Treatment of Stock Options and Other Stock-based Compensation.

(a) The Company shall take all requisite action so that, at the Effective Time, each option to acquire shares of Company Common Stock (each, a “Company Stock Option”) that is outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, whether or not then vested or exercisable, shall be, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of Parent, Merger Sub, or the holder of a Company Stock Option, cancelled and converted into the right to receive from Parent and the Surviving Corporation, as promptly as reasonably practicable after the Effective Time, an amount in cash, without interest, equal to the product of (x) the aggregate number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to such Company Stock Option multiplied by (y) the excess, if any, of the Merger Consideration over the per-share exercise price under such Company Stock Option subject to withholding for any Taxes required to be withheld in accordance with Section 2.05.

(b) The Company shall take all requisite action so that, at the Effective Time, each restricted stock unit award and other right, contingent or accrued, to acquire or receive shares of Company Common Stock or benefits measured by the value of such shares, and each award of any kind consisting of shares of Company Common Stock that may be held, awarded, outstanding,

payable or reserved for issuance under any Company Stock Plan, other than Company Stock Options (each, a “Company Stock Award”) immediately prior to the Effective Time, whether or not then vested or exercisable, shall be, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of Parent, Merger Sub, or the holder of that Company Stock Award, immediately vested and, to the extent applicable, exercisable. Each such Company Stock Award shall, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of Parent or Merger Sub, be cancelled and converted into the right to receive from Parent and the Surviving Corporation, as promptly as reasonably practicable after the Effective Time, an amount in cash, without interest, equal to the product of (x) the aggregate number of shares of Company Common Stock in respect of such Company Stock Award multiplied by (y) the Merger Consideration, subject to withholding for any Taxes required to be withheld in accordance with Section 2.05.

(c) At or prior to the Effective Time, the Company, the Company Board and the compensation committee of such board, as applicable, shall adopt any resolutions and take any actions that may be necessary to effectuate the provisions of paragraphs (a) and (b) of this Section 2.07.

Section 2.08 Treatment of Series A and Series B Convertible Notes. At the Effective Time, each Series A or Series B Convertible Note that is issued and outstanding shall be cancelled and converted into the right to receive from Parent and the Surviving Corporation, as promptly as reasonably practicable after the Effective Time, an amount in cash or shares of Company Common Stock as provided in each applicable Exchange Agreement dated as of the date hereof between the holder of such Series A or Series B Convertible Notes and the Company. Upon such payment each Series A or Series B Convertible Note will no longer be outstanding and will be cancelled and cease to exist, and each holder of a Series A or Series B Convertible Note shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive consideration in accordance with the previous sentence.

Section 2.09 Treatment of TPG Warrant. At the Effective Time, and in accordance with the terms of the issued and outstanding warrant to purchase shares of Company Common Stock that is described on Section 2.09 of the Company Disclosure Letter (the “TPG Warrant”), Parent shall cause to be paid to the holders of the TPG Warrant the fee set forth on Section 2.09 of the Company Disclosure Letter. Upon the Parent’s making of such payment, the TPG Warrant shall be terminated and no party thereto shall have any further rights or obligations thereunder.

ARTICLE III

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE COMPANY

Except as set forth in the correspondingly numbered Section of the disclosure letter, dated the date of this Agreement and delivered by the Company to Parent prior to the execution of this Agreement (the “Company Disclosure Letter”) (it being understood that disclosure of any item in any Section of the disclosure letter shall also be deemed disclosure with respect to any other Section of this Agreement to which the relevance of such item is reasonably apparent), the Company hereby represents and warrants to Parent and Merger Sub as follows:

Section 3.01 Organization; Standing and Power; Charter Documents; Minutes; Subsidiaries.

(a) Organization; Standing and Power. The Company and each of its Subsidiaries is a corporation, limited liability company or other legal entity duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the Laws of its jurisdiction of organization, and has the requisite corporate, limited liability company or other organizational, as applicable, power and authority to own, lease and operate its assets and to carry on its business as now conducted, except where the effect of any such failure to be so organized, existing or in good standing or to have such power or authority would not be material. Each of the Company and its Subsidiaries is duly qualified or licensed to do business as a foreign corporation, limited liability company or other legal entity and is in good standing in each jurisdiction where the character of the assets and properties owned, leased or operated by it or the nature of its business makes such qualification or license necessary, except where the failure to be so qualified or licensed or to be in good standing, would not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Company Material Adverse Effect.

(b) Charter Documents. The Company has delivered or made available to Parent a true and correct copy of the certificate of incorporation (including any certificate of designations), by-laws or like organizational documents, each as amended to date (collectively, the “Charter Documents”), of the Company and each of its Subsidiaries. Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries is in violation of any of the provisions of its Charter Documents in any material respect.

(c) Minutes. Except as set forth on Section 3.01(c) of the Company Disclosure Letter, the Company has made available to Parent true and correct copies of all available and finalized minutes with respect to, as applicable, all meetings of stockholders, the Company Board and each committee of the Company Board since January 1, 2012.

(d) Subsidiaries. Section 3.01(d)(i) of the Company Disclosure Letter lists each of the Subsidiaries of the Company as of the date hereof and its place of organization. Section 3.01(d)(ii) of the Company Disclosure Letter sets forth, for each Subsidiary that is not, directly or indirectly, wholly owned by the Company, (x) the number and type of any capital stock of, or other equity or voting interests in, such Subsidiary that is outstanding as of the date hereof and (y) the number and type of shares of capital stock of, or other equity or voting interests in, such Subsidiary that, as of the date hereof, are owned, directly or indirectly, by the Company. All of the outstanding shares of capital stock of, or other equity or voting interests in, each Subsidiary of the Company that is owned directly or indirectly by the Company have been validly issued, were issued free of pre-emptive rights and are fully paid and non-assessable, and are free and clear of all Liens, including any restriction on the right to vote, sell or otherwise dispose of such capital stock or other equity or voting interests, except for any Liens (x) imposed by applicable securities or Tax Laws or (y) arising pursuant to the Charter Documents of any non-wholly owned Subsidiary of the Company. Except for the capital stock of, or other equity or voting interests in, its Subsidiaries and except as set forth on Section 3.01(d)(iii) of the Company Disclosure Letter, the Company does not own, directly or indirectly, any capital stock of, or other equity or voting interests in, any Person.

Section 3.02 Capital Structure.

Section 5.06 No Solicitation.

(a) The Company agrees that neither it nor any of its Subsidiaries shall, directly or indirectly, solicit, initiate or knowingly take any action to facilitate or encourage the submission of any Takeover Proposal or the making of any proposal that could reasonably be expected to lead to any Takeover

Proposal, or subject to Section 5.06(b) and Section 5.06(e), (i) conduct or engage in any discussions or negotiations with, disclose any non-public information relating to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to, afford access to the business, properties, assets, books or records of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to, or knowingly assist, participate in, facilitate or encourage any effort by, any third party that is seeking to make, or has made, any Takeover Proposal; (ii) (A) amend or grant any waiver or release under any standstill or similar agreement with respect to any class of equity securities of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, provided that if the Company Board determines in good faith that the failure to take such action would reasonably be expected to cause the Company Board to breach its fiduciary duties under applicable Law, the Company may waive any standstill or similar provisions in its agreements to the extent necessary to permit a person to make, on a confidential basis to the Company Board, a Takeover Proposal, conditioned upon such person agreeing to disclosure of such Takeover Proposal to Parent and Merger Sub, in each case as contemplated by and subject to compliance with this Section or (B) take any action to render the restrictions on “business combinations” with “interested stockholders” inapplicable to any Takeover Proposal, (iii) enter into any agreement in principle, letter of intent, term sheet, acquisition agreement, merger agreement, option agreement, joint venture agreement, partnership agreement or other Contract relating to any Takeover Proposal (each, a “Company Acquisition Agreement”) or (iv) resolve, propose or agree to do any of the foregoing. The Company agrees that neither it nor any of its Subsidiaries shall authorize or knowingly permit any of its and their respective directors, officers, employees, advisors and investment bankers (with respect to any Person, the foregoing Persons are referred to herein as such Person’s “Representatives”) to engage in the proscribed actions set forth in the immediately preceding sentence. The Company shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to cease immediately and cause to be terminated, and shall not authorize or knowingly permit any of its or their Representatives to continue, any and all existing activities, discussions or negotiations, if any, with any third party conducted prior to the date hereof with respect to any Takeover Proposal.

(b) The foregoing notwithstanding, at any time prior to obtaining the Company Stockholder Approval, in response to a bona fide written Takeover Proposal that the Company Board determines in good faith (after consultation with its outside legal advisors and the Company Financial Advisor) constitutes or would reasonably be expected to result in a Superior Proposal, and which Takeover Proposal did not result from a material breach of Section 5.06(a), the Company may, subject to compliance with Section 5.06(c), (i) furnish information with respect to the Company and its Subsidiaries to the Person making such Takeover Proposal (and its Representatives), provided that all such information has previously been made available or provided to Parent or is

made available or provided to Parent prior to or substantially concurrent with the time it is provided to such Person, and (ii) participate in discussions or negotiations with the Person making such Takeover Proposal (and its Representatives) regarding such Takeover Proposal, if and only to the extent that in connection with the foregoing Clauses (i) and (ii), the Company has entered into an Acceptable Confidentiality Agreement.

(c) The Company shall notify Parent promptly (but in no event later than twenty-four (24) hours) after receipt by the Company of any Takeover Proposal, of any inquiry that would reasonably be expected to lead to a Takeover Proposal, or any request for non-public information relating to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or for access to the business, properties, assets, books or records of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries by any third party in connection with a Takeover Proposal. In such notice, the Company shall identify the third party making, and a summary of the material terms and conditions of, any such Takeover Proposal, indication or request. The Company shall keep Parent reasonably informed, on a reasonably current basis, of the status and material terms of any such Takeover Proposal, indication, or request, including any material amendments or proposed amendments as to price and other material terms thereof. The Company shall provide Parent with at least forty-eight (48) hours prior notice of any meeting of the Company Board (or such lesser notice as is provided to members of the Company Board) at which the Company Board is reasonably expected to consider any Takeover Proposal.

(d) Subject to Section 5.06(e), neither the Company Board nor any committee thereof shall (i) withdraw, fail to make, amend, modify or materially qualify, in a manner adverse to Parent or Merger Sub, the Company Board Recommendation, (ii) recommend a Takeover Proposal, (iii) fail to recommend against acceptance of any tender offer or exchange offer for the shares of Company Common Stock within ten (10) Business Days after the commencement of such offer, (iv) make any public statement inconsistent with the Company Board Recommendation, or (v) resolve or agree to take any of the foregoing actions (any of actions in the foregoing Clauses (i-v), a “Company Adverse Recommendation Change”).

(e) The foregoing notwithstanding, at any time prior to obtaining the Company Stockholder Approval and subject to compliance with this Section 5.06(e), the Company Board may make a Company Adverse Recommendation Change in response to (A) a Superior Proposal or (B) an Intervening Event, in the case of each of Clause (A) and (B), if the Company Board concludes in good faith, after consultation with outside legal advisors, that the failure to take such action would reasonably be expected to cause the Company Board to breach its fiduciary duties under applicable Law.

(f) The Company Board shall not be entitled to exercise its right to make a Company Adverse Recommendation Change pursuant to Section 5.06(e) unless (i) the Company has given Parent three (3) Business Days’ prior written notice of its intention to take such action, which notice shall (A) if relating to a Superior Proposal, specify the material terms and conditions of any such Superior Proposal and the identity of the Person making such Superior Proposal and shall contemporaneously provide Parent with the most current version of any proposed agreement, or (B) in respect to an Intervening Event, describe such Intervening Event and the reasons for the proposed Company Adverse Recommendation Change, (ii) if the Company Adverse Recommendation Change is in response to a Superior Proposal, the Company Board shall have considered in good faith any changes to this Agreement suggested by Parent and shall not have determined (after consultation with its outside legal advisors and the Company Financial Advisor) that the Superior Proposal would no longer constitute a Superior Proposal if such changes proposed by Parent were to be given effect (it being understood that the Company shall not take any action described in Section 5.06(e) during such three-Business-Day period, and that any amendment to the financial terms or other material terms of such Superior Proposal shall require a new written notification from the Company and an additional three-Business-Day period that satisfies this Section 5.06(f)), and (iii) if the Company Adverse Recommendation Change is in response to an Intervening Event, during such three-Business-Day period, if requested by Parent, the Company shall engage in good faith negotiations with Parent to amend this Agreement in such a manner that obviates the need for a Company Adverse Recommendation Change as a result of the Intervening Event.

(g) Nothing contained herein shall prevent the Company Board from disclosing to the Company’s stockholders a position contemplated by Rule 14d-9 and Rule 14e-2(a) promulgated under the Exchange Act with regard to a Takeover Proposal, if the Company determines, after consultation with outside legal counsel, that failure to disclose such position would constitute a violation of applicable Law.

Section 5.07 Stockholders Meeting; Preparation of Proxy Materials.

(a) Except to the extent that the Company Board shall have effected a Company Adverse Recommendation Change as permitted by Section 5.06(e) hereof, and subject to the terms set forth in this Agreement, (i) the Company shall take all action necessary to duly call, give notice of, convene and hold the Company Stockholders Meeting as soon as reasonably practicable after the date of this Agreement, and, in connection therewith, the Company shall mail the Company Proxy Statement to the holders of Company Common Stock in advance of such meeting, (ii) the Company Proxy Statement shall include the

Company Board Recommendation, and (iii) the Company shall use all reasonable efforts to (A) solicit from the holders of Company Common Stock proxies in favor of the adoption of this Agreement and (B) take all other actions reasonably necessary or advisable to secure the vote or consent of the holders of Company Common Stock required by applicable Law to obtain such approval. The Company shall keep Parent and Merger Sub updated with respect to proxy solicitation results as reasonably requested by Parent or Merger Sub. Once the Company Stockholders Meeting has been called and noticed, the Company shall not postpone or adjourn the Company Stockholders Meeting without the consent of Parent (other than (i) in order to obtain a quorum of its stockholders or (ii) as reasonably determined by the Company, in good faith, to comply with applicable Law). The foregoing sentence notwithstanding, if on a date for which the Company Stockholders Meeting is scheduled, the Company has not received proxies representing a sufficient number of shares to obtain the Company Stockholder Approval, whether or not a quorum is present, the Company may make one or more successive postponements or adjournments of the Company Stockholders Meeting; provided that the Company Stockholders Meeting is not postponed or adjourned to a date that is later than the earlier of (x) the date that is thirty days after the date for which the Company Stockholders Meeting was originally scheduled and (y) the date that is twenty Business Days prior to the End Date.

(b) In connection with the Company Stockholders Meeting, as soon as reasonably practicable following the date of this Agreement, the Company shall prepare and file the Company Proxy Statement with the SEC. Parent, Merger Sub and the Company will cooperate and consult with each other in the preparation of the Company Proxy Statement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each of Parent and Merger Sub will furnish the Company the information relating to it required by the Exchange Act, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, to be set forth in the Company Proxy Statement. The Company shall not file the Company Proxy Statement, or any amendment or supplement thereto, without providing Parent a reasonable opportunity to review and comment thereon (which comments shall be reasonably considered by the Company). The Company shall use all reasonable efforts to resolve, and each party agrees to consult and cooperate with the other party in resolving, all SEC comments with respect to the Company Proxy Statement as promptly as practicable after receipt thereof and to cause the Company Proxy Statement in definitive form to be cleared by the SEC and mailed to the Company’s stockholders as promptly as reasonably practicable following filing with the SEC. The Company agrees to consult with Parent prior to responding to SEC comments with respect to the preliminary Company Proxy Statement. Each of Parent, Merger Sub and the Company agrees to correct any information provided by it for use in the Company Proxy Statement which shall

have become false or misleading and the Company shall promptly prepare and mail to its stockholders an amendment or supplement setting forth such correction. The Company shall as soon as reasonably practicable (i) notify Parent of the receipt of any comments from the SEC with respect to the Company Proxy Statement and any request by the SEC for any amendment to the Company Proxy Statement or for additional information and (ii) provide Parent with copies of all written correspondence between the Company and its Representatives, on the one hand, and the SEC, on the other hand, with respect to the Company Proxy Statement.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, in the event of a Superior Proposal or an Intervening Event, the Company shall not be bound by the terms of Section 5.07(a) or Section 5.07(b) such that the Company shall not be obligated to duly call, give notice of, convene and hold the Company Stockholders Meeting or file the Company Proxy Statement with the SEC.

Section 5.08 Notices of Certain Events.

In no event, subject in all respects to Section 5.08(b) hereof, shall (x) the delivery of any notice by a party pursuant to this Section 5.08 limit or otherwise affect the respective rights, obligations, representations, warranties, covenants or agreements of the parties or the conditions to the obligations of the parties under this Agreement; or (y) disclosure by the Company or Parent be deemed to amend or supplement the Company Disclosure Letter or constitute an exception to any representation or warranty. This Section 5.08 shall not constitute a covenant or agreement for purposes of Section 6.02(b) or Section 6.03(b).

(b) At any time, and from time to time on or prior to the Closing Date, the Company may, in its sole discretion, supplement, amend or update the Company Disclosure Letter if the Company becomes aware of any material matter, event or occurrence first existing or occurring after the date hereof that would have been required or appropriate to be disclosed in the Company Disclosure Letter or which would otherwise be necessary to supplement, amend or update any information set forth therein. Except to the extent that any such supplements, updates or amendments result in, whether individually or when taken together in the aggregate, a Company Material Adverse Effect, such supplements, updates or amendments pursuant to this Section 5.08(b) shall be deemed to be incorporated into the Company Disclosure Letter and to be an exception to the representations and warranties (or covenants, as applicable) of the Company for purposes of determining whether the conditions set forth in Section 6.02 are satisfied.

With respect to each Parent Benefit Plan that is a “welfare benefit plan” (as defined in Section 3(1) of ERISA), Parent shall: (A) cause there to be waived any pre-existing condition or eligibility limitations for Company Continuing Employees and (B) give effect, in determining any deductible and maximum out-of-pocket limitations, to claims incurred and amounts paid by, and amounts reimbursed to, Company Continuing Employees under similar plans maintained by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries immediately prior to the Effective Time.

As soon as practicable after the Closing Date, the Company shall deliver to the Surviving Corporation, Parent or their Affiliates, as applicable, all material written (including electronic) records and documentation relating to the Transferred Plans and, until such records and documentation are delivered, shall cooperate with the Surviving Corporation, Parent or their Affiliate, as applicable, and its agents, and the fiduciaries of the Transferred Plans to the extent reasonably necessary for the Surviving Corporation, Parent or their Affiliate, as applicable, its agents and the fiduciaries of the Transferred Plans to carry out their duties with respect to the Transferred Plans.

(c) This Section 5.09 shall be binding upon and inure solely to the benefit of each of the parties to this Agreement, and nothing in this Section 5.09, express or implied, shall confer upon any other Person any rights or remedies of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of this Section 5.09.

The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the terms set forth in this Section 5.09 shall not create any right in any Company Employee or any other Person to any continued employment with the Surviving Corporation, Parent or any of their respective Subsidiaries or compensation or benefits of any nature or kind whatsoever.

(d) With respect to matters described in this Section 5.09, the Company will not send any written notices or other written communication materials to Company Employees without the prior consent of Parent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

Section 5.10 Directors’ and Officers’ Indemnification and Insurance.

(a) Parent and Merger Sub agree that all rights to indemnification, advancement of expenses and exculpation by the Company now existing in favor of each Person who is now, or has been at any time prior to the date hereof or who becomes prior to the Effective Time, an officer or director of the Company and its Subsidiaries (each an “Indemnified Party”) as provided in the Company Charter Documents, in each case as in effect on the date of this Agreement, or pursuant to any other Contracts in effect on the date hereof and disclosed in Section 5.10(a) of the Company Disclosure Letter, shall be assumed by the Surviving Corporation in the Merger, without further action, at the Effective Time and shall survive the Merger and shall remain in full force and effect in accordance with their terms, and, in the event that any proceeding is pending or asserted or any claim made during such period, until the final disposition of such proceeding or claim.

(b) For the latest of (i) six (6) years after the Effective Time, (ii) the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations, and (iii) final resolution of any pending claims for which indemnification and expense advancement are applicable, to the fullest extent permitted under applicable Law, Parent and the Surviving Corporation shall (A) indemnify, defend and hold harmless each Indemnified Party against all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, fees, expenses, judgments and fines arising in whole or in part out of actions or omissions in their capacity as officers or directors of the Company and its Subsidiaries occurring at or prior to the Effective Time (including in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement), (B) shall reimburse each Indemnified Party for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such Indemnified Party in connection with investigating or defending any such losses, claims, damages, liabilities, fees, expenses, judgments and fines as such expenses are incurred (including any and all fees, costs and expenses incurred in connection with the enforcement of this Section 5.10 by such Indemnified Party), and (C) advance reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including reasonable and documented attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred by the Indemnified Parties in connection with matters for which such Indemnified Parties may be eligible to be indemnified pursuant to this Section 5.10 within ten (10) days after receipt by Parent or the Surviving Corporation of a written request for such advance, subject to, in the case of Clauses (ii) and (iii) of this Section 5.10(b), the Surviving Corporation’s receipt of an undertaking by such Indemnified Party to repay such legal and other fees and expenses paid

in advance if it is ultimately determined in a final and non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction that such Indemnified Party is not entitled to be indemnified under this Section 5.10; provided, however, that the Surviving Corporation will not be liable for any settlement effected without the Surviving Corporation’s prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

(c) The Surviving Corporation shall, and Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, (i) maintain in effect for a period of six (6) years after the Effective Time, if available, the current policies of directors’ and officers’ liability insurance maintained by the Company immediately prior to the Effective Time (provided that the Surviving Corporation may substitute therefor policies containing materially the same coverage, amounts and key terms and conditions that are not less advantageous to the directors and officers of the Company and its Subsidiaries when compared to the insurance maintained by the Company as of the date hereof), or (ii) obtain, prior to the effective date of termination or nonrenewal of the insurance maintained by the Company as of the date hereof, “run-off” or “tail” insurance coverage with a claims period of six (6) years from the Effective Time with at least the same coverage and amounts and containing terms and conditions that are not less advantageous to the directors and officers of the Company and its Subsidiaries, in each case with respect to claims for “wrongful acts” which occurred before or at the Effective Time (including in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement); provided, however, that in no event will the Surviving Corporation be required to expend a total premium for such coverage in excess of $249,000 (the “Maximum Premium”).

(d) The obligations of Parent and the Surviving Corporation under this Section 5.10 shall survive the consummation of the Merger and shall not be terminated or modified in such a manner as to adversely affect any Indemnified Party to whom this Section 5.10 applies without the consent of such affected Indemnified Party (it being expressly agreed that the Indemnified Parties to whom this Section 5.10 applies shall be third-party beneficiaries of this Section 5.10, each of whom may enforce the provisions of this Section 5.10).

(e) In the event Parent, the Surviving Corporation or any of their respective successors or assigns (i) consolidates with or merges into any other Person and shall not be the continuing or surviving corporation or entity in such consolidation or merger or (ii) transfers all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any Person, then, and in either such case, proper provision shall be made so that the successors and assigns of Parent or the Surviving Corporation,

as the case may be, shall assume all of the obligations set forth in this Section 5.10. The agreements and covenants contained herein shall not be deemed to be exclusive of any other rights to which any Indemnified Party is entitled, whether pursuant to Law, Contract or otherwise. Nothing in this Agreement is intended to, shall be construed to or shall release, waive or impair any rights to directors’ and officers’ insurance claims under any policy that is or has been in existence with respect to the Company or its officers, directors and employees, it being understood and agreed that the indemnification provided for in this Section 5.10 is not prior to, or in substitution for, any such claims under any such policies.

Governmental Entity, provide the other party’s counsel with advance notice and the opportunity to attend and participate in any meeting with any Governmental Entity in respect of any filing made thereto in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

If this Agreement is terminated properly pursuant to this Article VII, it will become void and of no further force and effect, with no liability on the part of any party to this Agreement (or any stockholder, director, officer, employee, agent or Representative of such party) to any other party hereto, except (i) with respect to Section 5.05(b), this Section 7.05, Section 7.06 and Article VIII (and any related definitions contained in any such Sections or Article), which shall remain in full force and effect and (ii) with respect to any liabilities or damages (including, in the case of the

Company, damages based on the consideration payable to the lenders or stockholders of the Company pursuant hereto) incurred or suffered by a party, to the extent such liabilities or damages were the result of fraud or the breach by another party of any of its representations, warranties, covenants or other agreements set forth in this Agreement.

Section 7.06 Fees Following Termination.

(b) If this Agreement is terminated by the Company pursuant to Section 7.04(a), then the Company shall pay to Parent (by wire transfer of immediately available funds), at or prior to such termination, the Termination Fee.

(c) If this Agreement is terminated (i) by Parent pursuant to Section 7.03(b), provided that the Company Stockholder Approval shall not have been obtained at the Company Stockholders Meeting (including any adjournment or postponement thereof) or (ii) by the Company or Parent pursuant to (x) Section 7.02(a) hereof and provided that the Company Stockholder Approval shall not have been obtained at the Company Stockholders Meeting (including any adjournment or postponement thereof) or (y) Section 7.02(c) hereof and, in the case of Clauses (i) and (ii) immediately above, (A) prior to such termination (in the case of termination pursuant to Section 7.02(a) or Section 7.03(b)) or the Company Stockholders Meeting (in the case of termination pursuant to Section 7.02(c)), a Takeover Proposal shall (1) in the case of a termination pursuant to Section 7.02(a) or Section 7.02(c), have been publicly disclosed and not withdrawn or (2) in the case of a termination pursuant to Section 7.03(b), have been publicly disclosed or otherwise made or communicated to the Company or the Company Board, and not withdrawn, and (B) within 12 (twelve) months following the date of such termination of this Agreement the Company shall have entered into a definitive agreement with respect to any Takeover Proposal, or any Takeover Proposal shall have been consummated (in each case, whether or not such Takeover Proposal is the same as the original Takeover Proposal made, communicated or publicly disclosed), then in any such event the Company shall pay to Parent (by wire transfer of immediately available funds), immediately prior to and as a condition to consummating such transaction, the Termination Fee (it being understood for all purposes of this Section 7.06(c), all references in the definition of Takeover Proposal to 15% shall be deemed to be references to “more than 50%” instead). If a Person (other than Parent) makes a Takeover Proposal that has been publicly disclosed and subsequently withdrawn prior to such termination or the Company Stockholder Meeting, as applicable, and, within 12 (twelve) months following the date of the termination of this Agreement, such Person or any of its controlled Affiliates makes a Takeover Proposal that is publicly disclosed, such initial Takeover Proposal shall be deemed to have been “not withdrawn” for purposes of Clauses (1) and (2) of this paragraph (c).

(d) All the parties to this agreement acknowledge and hereby agree that (i) the provisions of this Section 7.06 are an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (including the Merger), and that, without such provisions, the other parties would not have entered into this Agreement, and (ii) the damages resulting from termination of this Agreement under circumstances where a Company Termination Fee is payable are uncertain and incapable of accurate calculation, and therefore, the amounts payable pursuant to Article VII are not a penalty but rather constitute liquidated damages in a reasonable amount that will compensate Parent 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 transactions contemplated hereby. If the Company shall fail to pay in a timely manner the amounts due pursuant to this Section 7.06, and, in order to obtain such payment, Parent makes a claim against the Company that results in a judgment against the Company, the Company shall pay to Parent the reasonable costs and expenses of Parent (including its reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred or accrued in connection with such suit, together with interest on the amounts set forth in this Section 7.06 at the prime lending rate prevailing during such period as published in The Wall Street Journal. Any interest payable hereunder shall be calculated on a daily basis from the date such amounts were required to be paid until (but excluding) the date of actual payment, and on the basis of a 360-day year. The parties acknowledge and agree that in no event shall the Company be obligated to pay the Termination Fee on more than one occasion.

(e) All Expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby will be paid by the party incurring such Expenses, provided, however, that Parent shall be responsible for all expenses and filing fees (other than expenses of counsel to the Company) incurred or paid in connection with filings pursuant to the request of or rule imposed by any Governmental Entity in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

Section 7.07 Amendment. At any time prior to the Effective Time, this Agreement may be amended or supplemented in any and all respects, whether before or after receipt of the Company Stockholder Approval, by written agreement signed by each of the parties hereto; provided, however, that following the receipt of the Company Stockholder Approval, there shall be no amendment or supplement to the provisions of this Agreement which by Law or in accordance with the rules of any relevant self-regulatory organization would require further approval by the Company’s stockholders, Merger Sub’s sole stockholder, or the holders of the Convertible Notes, as applicable, without such approval.

Section 7.08 Extension; Waiver. At any time prior to the Effective Time, Parent or Merger Sub, on the one hand, or the Company, on the other hand, may (a) extend the time for the performance of any of the obligations of the other party(ies), (b) waive any inaccuracies in the representations and warranties of the other party(ies) contained in this Agreement or in any document delivered under this Agreement or (c) unless prohibited by applicable Law, waive compliance with any of the covenants, agreements or conditions contained in this Agreement. Any agreement on the part of a party to any extension or waiver will be valid only if set forth in an instrument in writing signed by such party. The failure of any party to assert any of its rights under this Agreement or otherwise will not constitute a waiver of such rights.

Nothing in this Section shall affect the right of any party hereto to serve legal process in any other manner permitted by law.

Section 8.08 Entire Agreement. This Agreement (including the Exhibits to this Agreement), the Company Disclosure Letter and the Confidentiality Agreement constitute the entire agreement among the parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement and supersede all other prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, among the parties to this Agreement with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement. In the event of any inconsistency between the statements in the body of this Agreement, the Confidentiality Agreement and the Company Disclosure Letter (other than an exception expressly set forth as such in the Company Disclosure Letter), the statements in the body of this Agreement will control.

Section 8.09 No Third-Party Beneficiaries. Except as provided in Section 5.10 hereof (which shall be to the benefit of the parties referred to in such Section) and, from and after the Effective Time, for the stockholders of the Company with respect to Article II hereof, this Agreement is for the sole benefit of the parties hereto and their permitted assigns and respective successors and nothing herein, express or implied, is intended to or shall confer upon any other Person or entity any legal or equitable right, benefit or remedy of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of this Agreement.

Section 8.10 Severability. If any term, provision, covenant or restriction of this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction or other Governmental Entity to be invalid, void or unenforceable, the remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any

party. Upon such a determination, the parties shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner in order that the transactions contemplated hereby be consummated as originally contemplated to the fullest extent possible.

Section 8.11 Assignment. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations hereunder shall be assigned by any of the parties hereto (whether by operation of law or otherwise) without the prior written consent of the other parties. Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement shall be binding upon, inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the parties and their respective successors and assigns.

Section 8.12 Remedies. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, any and all remedies expressly conferred upon a party to this Agreement will be cumulative with, and not exclusive of, any other remedy contained in this Agreement, at Law or in equity. The exercise by a party to this Agreement of any one remedy will not preclude the exercise by it of any other remedy.

Section 8.13 Specific Performance. The parties agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached and that the parties would not have any adequate remedy at Law. It is accordingly agreed that the parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement, in addition to any and all other rights and remedies at Law or in equity, and all such rights and remedies shall be cumulative. Any such proceeding that may occur shall occur exclusively in the Chancery Court of the State of Delaware (or, if and only if the Chancery Court of the State of Delaware declines to accept jurisdiction over a particular matter, any state or federal court within the State of Delaware). Each of the parties hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to attempt to assert or assert, by way of motion or other request for leave from the Chancery Court of the State of Delaware or any other Delaware court, as a defense, counterclaim or otherwise, that there is an adequate remedy at Law or that an award of specific performance is not otherwise an available or appropriate remedy. Any requirements for the securing or posting of any bond with such remedy are waived.

Section 8.14 Counterparts; Effectiveness. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, which together shall constitute one and the same Agreement. The parties may execute more than one copy of the Agreement, each of which shall constitute an original. This Agreement will become effective when each party to this Agreement will have received counterparts signed by all of the other parties. Signatures transmitted via email or facsimile in the form of a PDF file shall be deemed to be originals for all applicable purposes.
