The Merger

SECTION 1.01. The Merger. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, and in accordance with the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the “DGCL”), Sub shall be merged with and into the Company at the Effective Time. Following the Effective Time, the separate corporate existence of Sub shall cease, and the Company shall continue as the surviving corporation in the Merger (the “Surviving Corporation”).

SECTION 1.02. Closing. The closing of the Merger (the “Closing”) will take place by electronic exchange of documents at 8:00 a.m., New York City time, on the fifth (5^th) Business Day after satisfaction or (to the extent permitted by Law) waiver of the conditions set forth in Article VI (other than those conditions that by their terms are to be satisfied at the Closing, but subject to the satisfaction or (to the extent permitted by Law) waiver of those conditions), unless another time, date or place is agreed to in writing by Parent and the Company; provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the Closing take place prior to the date that is forty-five (45) days after the date of this Agreement without the prior written consent of Parent and the Company. The date on which the Closing occurs is referred to in this Agreement as the “Closing Date.”

SECTION 1.03. Effective Time. Subject to the provisions of this Agreement, on the Closing Date, Parent, Sub and the Company shall file a certificate of merger (the “Certificate of Merger”) in such form as is required by, and executed and acknowledged in accordance with, the relevant provisions of the DGCL and shall make all other filings and recordings required under the DGCL. The Merger shall become effective at such date and time as the Certificate of Merger is filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware in accordance with the

-1-

DGCL or at such subsequent date and time as Parent and the Company shall agree and specify in the Certificate of Merger. The date and time at which the Merger becomes effective is referred to in this Agreement as the “Effective Time.”

ARTICLE II

Constituent Corporations; Exchange Fund;

Company Equity Awards

SECTION 2.01. Effect on Capital Stock. At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the Company, Parent, Sub or the holder of any shares of Company Common Stock or any shares of capital stock of Parent or Sub:

(a) Capital Stock of Sub. Each share of capital stock of Sub issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into and become one validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable share of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of the Surviving Corporation.

(b) Cancellation of Treasury Stock and Parent-Owned Stock. Each share of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of the Company (“Company Common Stock”) that is, immediately prior to the Effective Time, owned by the Company, as treasury stock, by any of the Company’s Subsidiaries (for the avoidance of doubt, other than shares of Company Common Stock with respect to the Company ESPP), by Parent or by any of Parent’s Subsidiaries (including Sub) (collectively, the “Excluded Shares”), shall automatically be canceled, shall no longer be outstanding and shall cease to exist, and no consideration shall be delivered in exchange therefor or in respect thereof.

(i) Each share of Company Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (including all Company Restricted Stock Awards covered by Section 2.03(a)(i) and shares underlying all Company RSU Awards, but excluding Excluded Shares and, except as provided in Section 2.01(d), the Appraisal Shares) shall be converted into the right, at the election of such share’s holder pursuant to the procedures set forth

-2-

in Section 2.01(g) and subject to Section 2.01(f), to receive any of the following forms of consideration (the “Merger Consideration”):

(A) for each share of Company Common Stock with respect to which a Stock Election has been validly made and not revoked pursuant to Section 2.01(g) (collectively, the “Stock Election Shares”), a number of validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of Parent (the “Parent Common Stock”) as is equal to the Exchange Ratio (the “Per Share Stock Consideration”);

(B) for each share of Company Common Stock with respect to which a Cash Election has been validly made and not revoked pursuant to Section 2.01(g) (collectively, the “Cash Election Shares”), an amount in cash equal to the Per Share Cash Consideration; and

(C) for each share of Company Common Stock other than shares as to which a Cash Election or a Stock Election has been validly made and not revoked pursuant to Section 2.01(g) (collectively, the “Non-Election Shares”), such Per Share Stock Consideration or Per Share Cash Consideration as is determined in accordance with Section 2.01(f).

(D) As used herein:

(1) “Cash Component” shall mean $10,505,000,000.

(2) “Exchange Ratio” shall mean the quotient, rounded to the nearest one ten thousandth, of (x) the Per Share Cash Consideration divided by (y) the Average Parent Stock Price.

(3) “Per Share Cash Consideration” shall mean the sum, rounded to the nearest one tenth of a cent, of (x) $68.00 plus (y) the product, rounded to the nearest one tenth of a cent, of the Share Ratio multiplied by the Average Parent Stock Price.

(4) “Share Ratio” shall mean 0.1440.

(ii) At the Effective Time, all such shares of Company Common Stock converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration pursuant to this Article II shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be canceled and shall cease to exist, and each holder of a certificate (or evidence of shares of Company Common Stock in book-entry form (each, a “Book Entry Share”)) that immediately prior to the Effective Time represented any such shares of Company Common Stock (each, a “Certificate”) shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive the Merger Consideration to be issued or paid in accordance with Section 2.02 and any declared dividends on the Company Common Stock with a record date prior to the Effective Time that remain unpaid at the Effective Time and that are due to such holder, any dividends or other distributions payable pursuant to Section 2.02(j) and cash in lieu of any fractional shares payable pursuant to Section 2.02(i), without interest, in each case to be issued or paid in consideration therefor in accordance with Section 2.02(b).

(d) Appraisal Rights. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, shares of Company Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time that are held by any holder who is entitled to demand and properly demands appraisal of such shares (the “Appraisal Shares”) pursuant to, and who complies in all respects with, the provisions of Section 262 of the DGCL (“Section 262”) shall not be converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration as provided in Section 2.01(c), but instead such holder shall be entitled to payment of the fair value of such shares in accordance with the provisions of Section 262. At the Effective Time, the Appraisal Shares shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be canceled and shall cease to exist, and each holder of Appraisal Shares shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive the fair value of such Appraisal Shares in accordance with the provisions of Section 262. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any such holder shall fail to perfect or otherwise shall waive, withdraw or lose the right to appraisal under Section 262 or a court of competent jurisdiction shall determine that such holder is not entitled to the relief provided by Section 262, then each such Appraisal Share shall thereupon be deemed to be Non-Election Shares for all purposes of this Agreement, unless such holder of

-3-

Appraisal Shares shall thereafter otherwise make a timely Election under this Agreement. If any holder of Appraisal Shares shall have so failed to perfect or has effectively withdrawn or lost such holder’s right to dissent from the adoption of this Agreement after the Election Deadline, each of such holder’s shares of Company Common Stock shall thereupon be deemed to have been converted into and to have become, as of the Effective Time, the right to receive the Merger Consideration and shall be treated as Non-Election Shares. The Company shall give prompt notice to Parent of any demands for appraisal of any shares of Company Common Stock, withdrawals of such demands and any other instruments served pursuant to the DGCL received by the Company, and Parent shall have the right to participate in and direct all negotiations and proceedings with respect to such demands. Prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall not, without the prior written consent of Parent, voluntarily make any payment with respect to, or settle or offer to settle, any such demands, or agree to do or commit to do any of the foregoing.

(e) Adjustments to Exchange Ratio. The Merger Consideration (including the Exchange Ratio and the Share Ratio and any similarly dependent item) shall be equitably adjusted to reflect proportionately the effect of any stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend (including any dividend or distribution of securities of a Subsidiary of Parent or the Company or of securities convertible into Parent Common Stock or Company Common Stock), cash dividends not permitted by Section 4.01(b)(i), reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification, combination, exchange of shares or other like change with respect to the number of shares of Parent Common Stock or Company Common Stock with a record date occurring on or after the date hereof and prior to the Effective Time (an “Adjustment Event”); provided, that nothing in this Section 2.01(e) shall be construed to permit any party hereto to take any action with respect to its securities that is prohibited by the terms of this Agreement.

(f) Proration.

(i) Notwithstanding any other provision contained in this Agreement, the total number of shares of Company Common Stock to be converted at the Effective Time into the right to receive the Per Share Cash Consideration pursuant to Section 2.01(c) (which, for this purpose, shall be deemed to include the Appraisal Shares determined as of the Effective Time) (the “Cash Conversion Number”) shall be equal to the quotient (rounded down to the nearest whole share) of (A) the Cash Component divided by (B) the Per Share Cash Consideration. All other shares of Company Common Stock (other than Excluded Shares and Appraisal Shares) shall be converted at the Effective Time into the right to receive the Per Share Stock Consideration.

(ii) Within three (3) Business Days after the Effective Time, Parent shall cause the Exchange Agent to effect the allocation among the holders of shares of Company Common Stock of the rights to receive the Per Share Cash Consideration and the Per Share Stock Consideration as follows:

(A) if the aggregate number of shares of Company Common Stock with respect to which Cash Elections shall have been made (which, for this purpose, shall be deemed to include the Appraisal Shares determined as of the Effective Time) (the “Total Cash Election Number”) exceeds or equals the Cash Conversion Number, then (1) all Stock Election Shares and all Non-Election Shares shall be converted into the right to receive the Per Share Stock Consideration, and (2) Cash Election Shares of each holder thereof shall be converted into the right to receive the Per Share Cash Consideration in respect of that number of Cash Election Shares equal to the product of (x) the number of Cash Election Shares held by such holder multiplied by (y) a fraction, the numerator of which is the Cash Conversion Number and the denominator of which is the Total Cash Election Number (with the Exchange Agent to determine, consistent with Section 2.01(f)(i), whether fractions of Cash Election Shares shall be rounded up or down), with the remaining number of such holder’s Cash Election Shares being converted into the right to receive the Per Share Stock Consideration; and

(B) if the Total Cash Election Number is less than the Cash Conversion Number (the amount by which the Cash Conversion Number exceeds the Total Cash Election Number being referred to herein as the “Shortfall Number”), then all Cash Election Shares shall be converted into the right to receive

-4-

the Per Share Cash Consideration, and the Stock Election Shares and Non-Election Shares shall be treated in the following manner:

(1) if the Shortfall Number is less than or equal to the number of Non-Election Shares, then all Stock Election Shares shall be converted into the right to receive the Per Share Stock Consideration, and the Non-Election Shares of each holder thereof shall be converted into the right to receive the Per Share Cash Consideration in respect of that number of Non-Election Shares equal to the product of (x) the number of Non-Election Shares held by such holder multiplied by (y) a fraction, the numerator of which is the Shortfall Number and the denominator of which is the total number of Non-Election Shares (with the Exchange Agent to determine, consistent with Section 2.01(f)(i), whether fractions of Non-Election Shares shall be rounded up or down), with the remaining number of such holder’s Non-Election Shares being converted into the right to receive the Per Share Stock Consideration; or

(2) if the Shortfall Number exceeds the number of Non-Election Shares, then (x) all Non-Election Shares shall be converted into the right to receive the Per Share Cash Consideration and (y) the Stock Election Shares of each holder thereof shall be converted into the right to receive the Per Share Cash Consideration in respect of that number of Stock Election Shares equal to the product of (x) the number of Stock Election Shares held by such holder multiplied by (y) a fraction, the numerator of which is the amount by which (1) the Shortfall Number exceeds (2) the total number of Non-Election Shares, and the denominator of which is the total number of Stock Election Shares (with the Exchange Agent to determine, consistent with Section 2.01(f)(i), whether fractions of Stock Election Shares shall be rounded up or down), with the remaining number of such holder’s Stock Election Shares being converted into the right to receive the Per Share Stock Consideration.

(g) Election Procedures.

(i) Election. Each person who is a holder of a share of Company Common Stock (or the beneficial owner through appropriate and customary documentation and instructions) on the Election Form Record Date shall have the right to submit an Election Form (an “Election”) specifying (A) the number of shares of Company Common Stock, if any, held by such person that such person desires to have converted into the right to receive the Per Share Stock Consideration (a “Stock Election”) and (B) the number of shares of Company Common Stock, if any, held by such person that such person desires to have converted into the right to receive the Per Share Cash Consideration (a “Cash Election”). Holders of record of Company Common Stock who hold such Company Common Stock as nominees, trustees or in other representative capacities may submit a separate Election Form on or before the Election Deadline with respect to each beneficial owner for whom such nominee, trustee or representative holds such Company Common Stock. Parent shall prepare and direct the Exchange Agent to mail an election form (in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Company) (the “Election Form”), which shall be mailed thirty (30) days prior to the anticipated Closing Date or on such other date as the Company and Parent shall mutually agree (the “Mailing Date”) to each holder of record of Company Common Stock as of the close of business on the fifth (5th) Business Day prior to the Mailing Date (the “Election Form Record Date”). The Election Form shall be used by each holder of shares of Company Common Stock (or the beneficial owner through appropriate and customary documentation and instructions) who wishes to make an Election. The Election Form shall include (1) a form of letter of transmittal (which shall (x) specify that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to the Certificates or Book Entry Shares held by such person shall pass, only upon proper delivery of the Certificates or proper surrender of the Book Entry Shares, as applicable, to the Exchange Agent and (y) be in customary form and contain such other provisions as Parent, the Company and the Exchange Agent shall reasonably agree upon prior to the Election Form Record Date), and (2) instructions for use in effecting the surrender of Certificates or Book Entry Shares in exchange for the Merger Consideration, any dividends or other distributions payable pursuant to Section 2.02(j) and any cash in lieu of fractional Parent Common Stock payable pursuant to Section 2.02(i).

-5-

(ii) New Holders. Parent shall direct the Exchange Agent to promptly make available one or more Election Forms as may reasonably be requested from time to time by all persons who become holders (or beneficial owners) of shares of Company Common Stock between the Election Form Record Date and the Election Deadline, and the Company and Parent shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide the Exchange Agent with all information reasonably necessary for it to perform its duties as specified herein.

(iii) Revocations; Exchange Agent. An Election shall have been properly made only if the Exchange Agent shall have received at its designated office, by the Election Deadline, an Election Form properly completed and signed and accompanied by Certificates (unless such shares of Company Common Stock are Book Entry Shares, in which case the holders shall follow the instructions set forth in the Election Form) to which such Election Form relates, duly endorsed in blank or otherwise in form acceptable for transfer on the books of the Company (or an appropriate affidavit attesting to the loss, theft, misplacement or destruction, as applicable, of such Certificates and a bond of indemnity, in each case in form reasonably acceptable to the Exchange Agent and Parent or by an appropriate guarantee of delivery of such Certificates as set forth in such Election Form; provided, that such Certificates are in fact delivered to the Exchange Agent within five (5) Business Days after the date of execution of such guarantee of delivery). Any holder of shares of Company Common Stock may (A) change such holder’s Election by written notice received by the Exchange Agent prior to the Election Deadline, accompanied by a properly completed and signed revised Election Form, or (B) revoke such holder’s Election by written notice received by the Exchange Agent prior to the Election Deadline or by withdrawal prior to the Election Deadline of such holder’s Certificates, or of the guarantee of delivery of such Certificates, previously deposited with the Exchange Agent. All Election Forms shall automatically be revoked if the Exchange Agent is notified in writing by the Company and Parent that the Merger has been abandoned and that this Agreement has been terminated. If an Election Form is revoked, the Certificate(s) (or guarantees of delivery, as appropriate), if any, for the shares of Company Common Stock to which such Election Form relates shall be promptly returned to the holder of shares of Company Common Stock submitting the same to the Exchange Agent. As used herein, unless otherwise agreed in advance by Parent and the Company, the “Election Deadline” means 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on a date prior to the Closing Date that Parent and the Company shall agree is as near as practicable to two (2) Business Days preceding the Closing Date. The Company and Parent shall cooperate to issue a joint press release reasonably satisfactory to each of them announcing the Election Deadline not more than fifteen (15) Business Days before, and at least five (5) Business Days prior to, the Election Deadline.

(iv) Determination of Exchange Agent Binding. Subject to the provisions of the Exchange Agency Agreement, the determination of the Exchange Agent shall be binding as to whether an Election shall have been properly made or revoked pursuant to this Section 2.01(g) with respect to shares of Company Common Stock and when Elections and revocations were received by it. Subject to the provisions of the Exchange Agency Agreement, if the Exchange Agent determines that any Election was not properly made with respect to any shares of Company Common Stock, such shares of Company Common Stock shall be treated by the Exchange Agent as Non-Election Shares. Subject to the provisions of the Exchange Agency Agreement, the Exchange Agent also shall make all computations as to the allocation and the proration contemplated by Section 2.01(f), and any such computation shall be conclusive and binding on Parent and the holders of shares of Company Common Stock.

SECTION 2.02. Exchange Procedures and Exchange Fund.

(a) Exchange Agent. Prior to the Closing Date, Parent shall appoint a bank or trust company reasonably acceptable to the Company to act as exchange agent (the “Exchange Agent”) for the payment of the Merger Consideration in accordance with this Article II and, in connection therewith, shall enter into an agreement with the Exchange Agent in a form reasonably acceptable to the Company (the “Exchange Agency Agreement”). At or prior to the Effective Time, Parent shall deposit, or shall cause Sub to deposit, with the Exchange Agent (i) book-entry shares representing the number of shares of Parent Common Stock sufficient to pay the aggregate Per Share Stock Consideration pursuant to Section 2.01(c), (ii) cash in an amount sufficient to pay the aggregate

-6-

Per Share Cash Consideration pursuant to Section 2.01(c) and (iii) cash in an amount sufficient to make all requisite payments of cash in lieu of fractional shares pursuant to Section 2.02(i). In addition, Parent shall deposit with the Exchange Agent, as necessary from time to time on or after the Effective Time, an amount in cash sufficient to pay any dividends or other distributions payable pursuant to Section 2.01(c) and/or Section 2.02(j). The shares of Parent Common Stock and cash deposited with the Exchange Agent are referred to in this Agreement as the “Exchange Fund.”

(b) Exchange Procedures. As promptly as practicable after the Effective Time, but in any event within two (2) Business Days thereafter, Parent shall cause the Exchange Agent to mail to each holder of record of a Certificate or one or more Book Entry Shares (other than those holders who have properly completed and submitted, and have not revoked, Election Forms pursuant to Section 2.01(g), which Election Forms shall include a letter of transmittal consistent with this Section 2.02(b)), (i) a letter of transmittal (which shall specify that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to the Certificates or Book Entry Shares shall pass, only upon proper delivery of the Certificates or surrender of the Book Entry Shares, as applicable, to the Exchange Agent and which shall otherwise be in customary form (including customary provisions with respect to delivery of an “agent’s message” with respect to Book Entry Shares)) and (ii) instructions for use in effecting the surrender of the Certificates or Book Entry Shares in exchange for the Merger Consideration. Each holder of record of a Certificate or Book Entry Share shall, upon surrender to the Exchange Agent of such Certificate or Book Entry Share, together with such letter of transmittal, duly executed, and such other customary documents as may reasonably be required by the Exchange Agent, and after completion of the proration procedures set forth in Section 2.01(f), be entitled to receive in exchange therefor, as applicable, cash in the amount equal to the aggregate Per Share Cash Consideration that such holder has the right to receive pursuant to Section 2.01(c) and this Article II, book-entry shares representing the aggregate Per Share Stock Consideration that such holder has the right to receive pursuant to Section 2.01(c) and this Article II, cash in lieu of any fractional shares of Parent Common Stock such holder is entitled to receive pursuant to Section 2.02(i) and any dividends or other distributions such holder is entitled to receive pursuant to Section 2.01(c) and/or Section 2.02(j), and the Certificate or Book Entry Share so surrendered shall forthwith be canceled. In the event of a transfer of ownership of shares of Company Common Stock which is not registered in the transfer records of the Company, payment of the Merger Consideration may be made to a person other than the person in whose name the Certificate so surrendered is registered if such Certificate shall be properly endorsed or otherwise be in proper form for transfer and the person requesting such payment shall pay any fiduciary or surety bonds and any transfer or other similar taxes required by reason of the payment of the Merger Consideration to a person other than the registered holder of such Certificate or establish to the reasonable satisfaction of Parent that such tax has been paid or is not applicable. Until surrendered as contemplated by this Section 2.02(b), each Certificate or Book Entry Share shall be deemed at any time after the Effective Time to represent only the right to receive upon such surrender, as applicable, cash in the amount equal to the aggregate Per Share Cash Consideration that such holder has the right to receive pursuant to Section 2.01(c) and this Article II, book-entry shares representing the aggregate Per Share Stock Consideration that such holder has the right to receive pursuant to Section 2.01(c) and this Article II, cash in lieu of any fractional shares of Parent Common Stock such holder is entitled to receive pursuant to Section 2.02(i) and any dividends or other distributions such holder is entitled to receive pursuant to Section 2.01(c) and/or Section 2.02(j). No interest shall be paid or will accrue on any cash payable to holders of Certificates or Book Entry Shares pursuant to the provisions of this Article II.

(c) No Further Ownership Rights in Company Common Stock. The Merger Consideration, any dividends or other distributions payable pursuant to Section 2.01(c) and/or Section 2.02(j) and cash in lieu of any fractional shares payable pursuant to Section 2.02(i) paid upon the surrender of Certificates or Book Entry Shares in accordance with the terms of this Article II 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 Certificates or Book Entry Shares, as applicable. At the close of business on the day on which the Effective Time occurs, the stock transfer books of the Company shall be closed, and there shall be no further registration of transfers on the stock transfer books of the Surviving Corporation of the shares of Company Common Stock that were outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time. If, after the Effective Time, any Certificate or Book Entry Share is presented to the

-7-

Surviving Corporation for transfer, it shall be canceled against delivery of the Merger Consideration (and any dividends or other distributions payable with respect thereto pursuant to Section 2.01(c) and/or Section 2.02(j) and cash in lieu of any fractional shares payable with respect thereto pursuant to Section 2.02(i)) to the holder thereof as provided in this Article II.

(d) Termination of the Exchange Fund. Any portion of the Exchange Fund that remains undistributed to the holders of the Company Common Stock for twelve (12) months after the Effective Time shall be delivered to Parent, upon demand, and any holders of Company Common Stock who have not theretofore complied with this Article II shall thereafter look only to Parent and the Surviving Corporation for, and Parent and the Surviving Corporation shall remain liable for, payment of their claims for the Merger Consideration (and any dividends or other distributions payable with respect thereto pursuant to Section 2.01(c) and/or Section 2.02(j) and cash in lieu of any fractional shares payable with respect thereto pursuant to Section 2.02(i)) pursuant to the provisions of this Article II.

(e) No Liability. None of Parent, Sub, the Company, the Surviving Corporation or the Exchange Agent shall be liable to any person in respect of any shares of Parent Common Stock, cash, dividends or other distributions from the Exchange Fund delivered to a public official in compliance with any applicable state, Federal or other abandoned property, escheat or similar Law. If any Certificate or Book Entry Share shall not have been surrendered prior to the date on which the related Merger Consideration (and any dividends or other distributions payable with respect thereto pursuant to Section 2.01(c) and/or Section 2.02(j) and cash in lieu of any fractional shares payable with respect thereto pursuant to Section 2.02(i)) would escheat to or become the property of any Governmental Entity, any such Merger Consideration (and any dividends or other distributions payable with respect thereto pursuant to Section 2.01(c) and/or Section 2.02(j) and cash in lieu of any fractional shares payable with respect thereto pursuant to Section 2.02(i)) shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, immediately prior to such time become the property of Parent, free and clear of all claims or interest of any person previously entitled thereto.

(f) Investment of Exchange Fund. The Exchange Agent shall invest the cash in the Exchange Fund as directed by Parent; provided, however, that, unless otherwise agreed in the Exchange Agency Agreement, such investments shall be in obligations of or guaranteed by the United States of America or any agency or instrumentality thereof and backed by the full faith and credit of the United States of America, in commercial paper obligations rated A-1 or P-1 or better by Xxxxx’x Investors Service, Inc. or Standard & Poor’s Corporation, respectively, or in certificates of deposit, bank repurchase agreements or banker’s acceptances of commercial banks with capital exceeding $10 billion (based on the most recent financial statements of such bank that are then publicly available) and, in any such case, no instrument or investment shall have a maturity exceeding three (3) months. Any interest and other income resulting from such investments shall be paid solely to Parent. To the extent there are losses with respect to such investments, or the Exchange Fund diminishes for other reasons below the level required to fully satisfy all of the payment obligations to be made in cash by the Exchange Agent hereunder, Parent shall or shall cause Sub to promptly replace or restore the cash in the Exchange Fund so that the Exchange Fund is at all times maintained at a level sufficient for the Exchange Agent to fully satisfy such cash payment obligations. Nothing contained herein and no investment losses resulting from investment of the Exchange Fund shall diminish the rights of any holder of Certificates or Book Entry Shares to receive the Merger Consideration as provided herein.

(g) 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 or surety 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 shall deliver in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate the applicable Merger Consideration and any dividends or other distributions payable with respect thereto pursuant to Section 2.01(c) and/or Section 2.02(j) and cash in lieu of any fractional shares payable with respect thereto pursuant to Section 2.02(i).

(h) Withholding Rights. Parent, the Surviving Corporation and the Exchange Agent shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement to any holder of shares

-8-

of Company Common Stock or any holder of a Company Restricted Stock Award or Company RSU Award or any participant in the Company ESPP, such amounts as Parent, the Surviving Corporation or the Exchange Agent are required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), or any provision of state, local or foreign tax Law. For the avoidance of doubt, withholding with respect to the total amount of consideration paid hereunder may be made (x) from the aggregate Per Share Cash Consideration or (y) in part from the aggregate Per Share Cash Consideration and in part from the aggregate Per Share Stock Consideration (valuing the Parent Common Stock based on the Average Parent Stock Price); provided, however, that to the extent withholding is made in part from the aggregate Per Share Cash Consideration and in part from the aggregate Per Share Stock Consideration, the withholding shall be made ratably from the aggregate Per Share Cash Consideration and the aggregate Per Share Stock Consideration, except as required by applicable Law. To the extent that amounts are so withheld and paid over to the appropriate Governmental Entity by Parent, the Surviving Corporation or the Exchange Agent, such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the person in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made.

(i) No Fractional Shares. No certificates or scrip representing fractional shares or book-entry credit of Parent Common Stock shall be issued upon the surrender for exchange of Certificates or upon the conversion of Book Entry Shares, no dividends or other distributions of Parent shall relate to such fractional share interests and such fractional share interests shall not entitle the owner thereof to vote or to any rights of a stockholder of Parent. Each holder of shares of Company Common Stock who otherwise would have been entitled to a fraction of a share of shares of Parent Common Stock shall receive in lieu thereof cash (rounded to the nearest cent) equal to the product obtained by multiplying (A) the fractional share interest to which such holder (after taking into account all shares of Company Common Stock formerly represented by all Certificates surrendered by such holder and all Book Entry Shares formerly held by such holder that are converted) would otherwise be entitled by (B) the Average Parent Stock Price. The parties hereto acknowledge that payment of the cash consideration in lieu of issuing fractional shares is not separately bargained-for consideration but merely represents a mechanical rounding off for purposes of avoiding the expense and inconvenience to Parent that would otherwise be caused by the issuance of fractional shares.

(j) Distributions with Respect to Unexchanged Shares of Parent Common Stock. No dividends or other distributions with respect to shares of Parent Common Stock with a record date after the Effective Time shall be paid to the holder of any unsurrendered Certificate or Book Entry Share with respect to the shares of Parent Common Stock that the holder thereof has the right to receive upon the surrender thereof, and no cash payment in lieu of fractional shares of Parent Common Stock shall be paid to any such holder pursuant to Section 2.02(i), in each case until the holder of such Certificate or Book Entry Share shall have surrendered such Certificate or Book Entry Share in accordance with this Article II. Following the surrender of any Certificate or Book Entry Share, there shall be paid to the holder of the Certificate or Book Entry Share representing shares of Parent Common Stock issued in exchange therefor, without interest, (A) at the time of such surrender, the amount of dividends or other distributions with a record date after the Effective Time theretofore paid with respect to such shares of Parent Common Stock and the amount of any cash payable in lieu of a fractional share of Parent Common Stock to which such holder is entitled pursuant to Section 2.02(i) and (B) at the appropriate payment date, the amount of dividends or other distributions with a record date after the Effective Time but prior to such surrender and a payment date subsequent to such surrender payable with respect to such shares of Parent Common Stock.

SECTION 2.03. Company Equity Awards and Company ESPP.

(a) As soon as reasonably practicable following the date of this Agreement, the Board of Directors of the Company (or, if appropriate, any committee administering the Company Stock Plan or the Company ESPP) shall adopt such resolutions as may be required to provide that:

(i) immediately prior to the Effective Time, each award in respect of a share of Company Common Stock that is subject to vesting, repurchase or other lapse restriction (a “Company Restricted Stock Award”)

-9-

At the Effective Time, such vested and settled Company Restricted Stock Awards shall be canceled and converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration (the “Company Restricted Stock Award Consideration”) in accordance with Section 2.01(c) through Section 2.01(g). For the avoidance of doubt, the Company Restricted Stock Award Consideration shall be paid out of the Exchange Fund in accordance with Section 2.02, without interest, and any dividends accrued pursuant to the terms of any Company Restricted Stock Award that is outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and that are unpaid as of the Effective Time shall be paid in cash, without interest, by the Company to the holder thereof as promptly as practicable following, but in no event later than ten (10) Business Days after, the Effective Time in accordance with the Company’s payroll procedures;

(ii) at the Effective Time, each Company Restricted Stock Award granted pursuant to the Company Stock Plan that is then outstanding and that is not covered by Section 2.03(a)(i) shall, automatically and without any required action on the part of the holder thereof, be assumed and converted into a restricted share of Parent Common Stock (a “Converted Restricted Stock Award”) with the same terms and conditions as were applicable to such Company Restricted Stock Award immediately prior to the Effective Time (except that, in the case of any such Company Restricted Stock Award that is subject to performance-based vesting, each applicable “Performance Restriction” shall be deemed satisfied and such award will become a time-based award) and relating to the number of shares of Parent Common Stock equal to the product of (x) a number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to such Company Restricted Stock Award immediately prior to the Effective Time and (y) the Exchange Ratio, with any fractional shares rounded to the nearest whole share of Parent Common Stock; and

(iii) immediately prior to the Effective Time, each time-based restricted stock unit award in respect of a share of Company Common Stock (a “Company RSU Award”) granted under the Company Stock Plan that is then outstanding shall, automatically and without any required action on the part of the holder thereof, accelerate and vest in full and be deemed settled for a number of shares of Company Common Stock equal to the number of shares of Company Common Stock underlying such Company RSU Award. At the Effective Time, such shares of Company Common Stock that are deemed issued shall be canceled and converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration (the “Company RSU Award Consideration”) in accordance with Section 2.01(c) through Section 2.01(g). For the avoidance of doubt, the Company RSU Award Consideration shall be paid out of the Exchange Fund in accordance with Section 2.02, without interest, and, any dividend equivalents accrued pursuant to the terms of any Company RSU Award that is outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and that are unpaid as of the Effective Time shall be paid in cash, without interest, by the Company to the holder thereof as promptly as practicable following, but in no event later than ten (10) Business Days after, the Effective Time in accordance with the Company’s payroll procedures.

(b) With respect to the Company’s Employee Stock Purchase Plan, as amended and restated as of December 5, 2019 (the “Company ESPP”): (i) each participant’s accumulated Participant Contributions (as such term is defined in the Company ESPP) shall be used to purchase shares of Company Common Stock no later than immediately prior to the Effective Time in accordance with the terms of the Company ESPP; provided, that any Participant Contributions to a participant’s Account as of immediately prior to the Effective Time that are

-10-

insufficient to purchase one whole share of Company Common Stock immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be distributed in cash to such participant as promptly as practicable following, but in no event later than ten (10) Business Days after, the Effective Time, (ii) the shares of Company Common Stock purchased thereunder shall be canceled at the Effective Time and converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 2.01(c) (which shall be paid out of the Exchange Fund in accordance with Section 2.02, without interest), and (iii) all Matching Credits (as such term is defined in the Company ESPP) that would be allocated to each participant’s Account (as such term is defined in the Company ESPP) assuming that the participant remained an Eligible Person (as such term is defined in the Company ESPP) through each Matching Date (as such term is defined in the Company ESPP), without regard to the occurrence of the annual anniversary of each applicable Quarter End (as such term is defined in the Company ESPP), for all Participant Contributions (as such term is defined in the Company ESPP) prior to the Effective Time, and disregarding the Holding Period Requirement (as such term is defined in the Company ESPP) and any other applicable restrictions or limitations, shall be credited (or deemed credited) on an accelerated basis immediately prior to the Closing Date and distributed in cash to such participant as promptly as practicable following, but in no event later than ten (10) Business Days after, the Effective Time. The Company shall cause the Company ESPP to terminate as of the Effective Time.

(c) Promptly following the Effective Time, Parent shall file a post-effective amendment to the Form S-4 or an effective registration statement on Form S-8 (or any successor form or other appropriate form) with respect to the shares of Parent Common Stock subject to the Converted Restricted Stock Awards, as required. Parent shall use commercially reasonable efforts to maintain the effectiveness of such registration statement or statements for so long as such Converted Restricted Stock Awards remain outstanding.

As of the date of this Agreement, no event or condition has occurred or exists which would result in a violation of, breach, default or loss of a benefit under, or acceleration of an obligation of Parent or any of its Subsidiaries under, any Authorization (in each case, with or without notice or lapse of time or both), except for violations, breaches, defaults, losses or accelerations that have not had and would not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Parent Material Adverse Effect.

(l) State Takeover Statutes. Assuming that neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries, “affiliates” or “associates” (as defined in Section 203 of the DGCL) beneficially owns (within the meaning of Section 13 of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder) or owns (within the meaning of Section 203 of the DGCL) any shares of Parent Common Stock, no state takeover statute applies to this Agreement, the Merger or the other Merger Transactions.

(m) Brokers and Other Advisors. No broker, investment banker, financial advisor or other person, other than Xxxxx Fargo Securities, LLC and Xxxxxxx Xxxxx & Co. LLC, the fees and expenses of which will be paid by Parent, is entitled to any broker’s, finder’s or financial advisor’s fee or commission in connection with the Merger and the other Transactions based upon arrangements made by or on behalf of Parent, Sub or their respective Affiliates.

(n) Solvency. Assuming (i) satisfaction of the conditions to Parent’s obligation to consummate the Merger, and after giving effect to the Transactions and the payment of the aggregate Merger Consideration, the other amounts payable pursuant to this Agreement, and any repayment or refinancing of debt contemplated in this Agreement, (ii) the accuracy in all material respects of the representations and warranties of the Company set forth in Section 3.01, and (iii) any forward-looking estimates, projections or forecasts of the Company and its Subsidiaries and provided to Parent prior to the date hereof have been prepared by them in good faith based upon assumptions that were and continue as of the date hereof to be reasonable, each of Parent and the Surviving Corporation will be Solvent as of the Effective Time and immediately after the consummation of the Transactions. For the purposes of this Agreement, the term “Solvent” when used with respect to any person, means that, as of any date of determination (A) the amount of the “fair saleable value” of the assets of such person will, as of such date, exceed (1) the value of all “liabilities of such person, including contingent and other liabilities,” as of such date, as such quoted terms are generally determined in accordance with applicable Laws governing determinations of the insolvency of debtors, and (2) the amount that will be required to pay the probable liabilities of such person, as of such date, on its existing debts (including contingent and other liabilities) as such debts become absolute and mature, (B) such person will not have, as of such date, an unreasonably small amount of capital for the operation of the businesses in which it is engaged or proposed to be engaged following such date, and (C) such person will be able to pay its liabilities, including contingent and other liabilities, as they mature. For purposes of this definition, “not have an unreasonably small amount of capital for the operation of the businesses in which it is engaged or proposed to be engaged” and “able to pay its liabilities, including contingent and other liabilities, as they mature” means that such person will be able to generate enough cash from operations, asset dispositions or refinancing, or a combination thereof, to meet its obligations as they become due.

(o) No Other Representations or Warranties. Except for the representations and warranties contained in this Section 3.02, the Company acknowledges that neither Parent nor Sub nor any other person on behalf of Parent or Sub makes any other express or implied representation or warranty with respect to Parent, Sub or any of their respective Subsidiaries or with respect to any other information provided to the Company in connection with the Transactions. Neither Parent nor Sub nor any other person will have or be subject to any liability or

-32-

indemnification obligation to the Company or any other person resulting from the distribution to the Company, or the Company’s use of, any such information, including any information, documents, projections, forecasts or other material made available to the Company in certain “data rooms” or management presentations in expectation of the Transactions, unless and then only to the extent that any such information is expressly included in a representation or warranty contained in this Section 3.02.

-36-

consolidated total assets (including capital stock of the Subsidiaries of the Company) of the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, or (2) 15% or more of outstanding shares of Company Common Stock, (b) any tender offer or exchange offer, in each case whether in a single transaction or a series of transactions, that, if consummated, would result in any person or group or persons owning, directly or indirectly, 15% or more of outstanding shares of Company Common Stock or (c) any merger, consolidation, business combination, recapitalization, reorganization, liquidation, dissolution, share exchange or similar transaction involving the Company or any of its Subsidiaries pursuant to which any person or group (or the stockholders of any person) would own, directly or indirectly, (i) 15% or more of any class of equity securities of the Company or of the surviving entity in a merger or the resulting direct or indirect parent of the Company or such surviving entity or (ii) businesses or assets that constitute 15% or more of the consolidated revenues, net income or total assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries, other than, in each case, the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

(b) Except as permitted by Section 4.02(d), the Company shall not and shall cause its Subsidiaries and its and their respective Representatives not to, directly or indirectly (including through another person), (A) solicit, initiate, knowingly facilitate, knowingly encourage, or knowingly induce any Takeover Proposal, (B) engage in any discussions or negotiations with any person (other than Parent or any of its Representatives) relating to or for the purpose of encouraging or facilitating, any Takeover Proposal or grant any waiver, release or amendment under (or otherwise not enforce the terms of) any standstill, confidentiality or other similar agreement (except that if the Board of Directors of the Company determines in good faith, after consultation with the Company’s outside legal counsel, that the failure to grant any waiver or release would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under applicable Law, the Company may, with prior written notice to Parent, waive any such standstill provision or grant any such release solely to the extent necessary to permit the applicable person (if it has not been solicited in violation of this Section 4.02) to make, on a confidential basis to the Board of Directors of the Company, a Takeover Proposal, conditioned upon such person agreeing to disclosure of such Takeover Proposal to Parent), (C) provide any confidential or nonpublic information or data to any person relating to, or otherwise for the purpose of encouraging or facilitating, any Takeover Proposal or (D) resolve to do any of the foregoing.

(c) The Company shall immediately cease and cause to be terminated any solicitation, knowing encouragement, discussion or negotiation of or with, or cooperation with, or assistance or participation in, or facilitation of (including by way of providing access to non-public information), any inquiries, proposals, discussions or negotiations with any person or group of persons conducted prior to the date hereof by the Company, its Subsidiaries or any of their respective Representatives with respect to any Takeover Proposal and use commercially reasonable efforts to cause all confidential information provided by or on behalf of the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective Representatives to such person or group of persons be returned or destroyed. In furtherance of the foregoing, promptly after the date hereof (and in any event within one (1) Business Day following the date hereof), the Company shall (i) request in writing that each person that has heretofore executed a confidentiality agreement in connection with its consideration of a Takeover Proposal or potential Takeover Proposal promptly destroy or return to the Company all nonpublic information heretofore furnished by the Company or any of its Representatives to such person or any of its Representatives in accordance with the terms of such confidentiality agreement and (B) terminate access to any physical or electronic data rooms relating to a possible Takeover Proposal by such person and its Representatives.

-37-

its Representatives and financing sources, and (B) engage in discussions or negotiations with the person making such Takeover Proposal and its Representatives and financing sources regarding such Takeover Proposal; provided, that the Company (x) will not, and will not allow its Subsidiaries or its or their Representatives to, disclose any non-public information to such person without first entering into an Acceptable Confidentiality Agreement with such person, and (y) will substantially concurrently with the time such information is provided to such person making such Takeover Proposal provide, in accordance with the terms of the Confidentiality Agreement, to Parent any material non-public information, including copies of all written materials, concerning the Company or its Subsidiaries to be provided to such other person which was not previously provided to Parent.

(e) The term “Superior Proposal” means any bona fide Takeover Proposal (with the percentages set forth in the definition thereof changed from 15% to 50%) made in writing that the Board of Directors of the Company determines in good faith is reasonably likely to be consummated and that is on terms which the Board of Directors of the Company determines in good faith (after consultation with the Company’s financial advisor and outside counsel) would be more favorable to the stockholders of the Company from a financial point of view than the Merger, taking into account all financial, legal, regulatory, financing, certainty and timing of consummation and other aspects of such proposal and of this Agreement (including any changes to the financial and other terms of this Agreement proposed by Parent to the Company prior to the expiration of the applicable periods referred to in Section 4.02(g) below in response to such proposal or otherwise).

(f) The Company shall as promptly as practicable (but in any event within 24 hours) notify Parent, orally and in writing, in the event that the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective Representatives receives (A) any Takeover Proposal or (B) any inquiries, proposals or offers received by, any request for non-public information from, or any discussions or negotiations initiated or continued (or sought to be initiated or continued) with, the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective Representatives in furtherance of or otherwise concerning a Takeover Proposal, and in each case shall include in such notice an unredacted copy of such Takeover Proposal or request (including, as applicable, all written proposals, written indications of interest, draft agreements or other written materials relating thereto) (or, where no such copy exists or is available, a written description thereof that includes the material terms and conditions thereof), including the identity of the person making such Takeover Proposal or other request. The Company shall keep Parent reasonably informed on a prompt basis (and, in any case, within twenty-four (24) hours of any significant development) of the status of such Takeover Proposal or other inquiry, offer, proposal or request (including the terms and conditions thereof) and any material developments, discussions and negotiations with respect to any such Takeover Proposal or other inquiry, offer, proposal or request (including any material changes thereto), and shall promptly (but in any event within twenty-four (24) hours) provide to Parent copies of any additional or revised written proposals, written indications of interest and/or draft agreements relating to such Takeover Proposal or other inquiry, offer, proposal or request, and/or other written materials that describe any of the terms and conditions of such Takeover Proposal or other inquiry, offer, proposal or request.

(g) Neither the Board of Directors of the Company nor any committee thereof shall (i)(A) withdraw (or modify or qualify in a manner adverse to Parent), or publicly propose to withdraw (or modify or qualify in a manner adverse to Parent), the approval, recommendation or declaration of advisability by such Board of Directors or any such committee of this Agreement or the Merger, (B) recommend the approval or adoption of, or approve or adopt, declare advisable or publicly propose to recommend, approve, adopt or declare advisable, any Takeover Proposal, (C) fail to include the Company Recommendation in the Proxy Statement, (D) make or publicly propose to make any recommendation in connection with a tender offer or exchange offer other than a recommendation against such offer (it being understood that the Board of Directors of the Company may (x) issue a “stop, look and listen” disclosure or (y) otherwise refrain from taking a position with respect to such a tender offer or exchange offer until the close of business as of the tenth (10^th) Business Day after the commencement of such tender offer or exchange offer pursuant to Rule 14d-9(f) under the Exchange Act, in each case, without such action being considered an Adverse Recommendation Change, so long as the Company reaffirms the Company Recommendation during the ten (10) Business Day period after the commencement of such tender offer or exchange offer) or (E) other than with respect to the period of up to ten (10) Business Days

-38-

applicable to tender or exchange offers that are the subject of the preceding clause (D), fail to recommend against a Takeover Proposal or fail to reaffirm the Company Recommendation, in either case within ten (10) Business Days after a written request by Parent to do so following the public disclosure of a Takeover Proposal; provided, however, that (1) such ten (10) Business Day period shall be extended for an additional ten (10) Business Days following any material modification to any Takeover Proposal occurring after the receipt of Parent’s written request and (2) Parent shall be entitled to make such a written request for reaffirmation only once for each Takeover Proposal and once for each material amendment to such Takeover Proposal (any action described in this clause (i) being referred to as an “Adverse Recommendation Change”) or (ii) approve or recommend, or publicly propose to approve or recommend, or cause or permit the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to execute or enter into, any binding or non-binding letter of intent, memorandum of understanding, agreement in principle, merger agreement, acquisition agreement or other similar agreement related to (or that otherwise is intended to, or would reasonably be expected to, lead to) any Takeover Proposal, other than any Acceptable Confidentiality Agreement referred to in Section 4.02(d) (an “Acquisition Agreement”). Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything else in this Agreement to the contrary, at any time prior to obtaining the Company Stockholder Approval and subject to compliance with Section 5.06(b), the Board of Directors of the Company may, if the Board of Directors of the Company determines in good faith (after consultation with the Company’s financial advisor and outside legal counsel) that the failure to take such action would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under applicable Law: (x) in response to a Superior Proposal (but only if such Superior Proposal did not arise out of or result from a breach by the Company of this Section 4.02) or Intervening Event, make an Adverse Recommendation Change or (y) in respect of a Superior Proposal that did not arise out of or result from a breach by the Company of this Section 4.02, cause the Company to terminate this Agreement and, concurrently with or immediately after such termination, cause the Company to enter into an Acquisition Agreement providing for such Superior Proposal; provided, however, that (1) no Adverse Recommendation Change may be made and (2) no termination of this Agreement pursuant to this Section 4.02(g) may be made, until after the fifth (5th) Business Day following Parent’s receipt of written notice from the Company advising Parent that the Board of Directors of the Company intends to (x) in the case of clause (1) above, make an Adverse Recommendation Change (a “Notice of Adverse Recommendation”) or (y) in the case of clause (2) above, terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 4.02(g) (a “Notice of Superior Proposal”) and specifying the reasons therefor, including, (i) if the basis of the proposed action by the Board of Directors of the Company is a Superior Proposal, the material terms and conditions of such Superior Proposal (including the identity of the person making such Superior Proposal and a copy of the then-current forms of all of the relevant proposed transaction documents related thereto, including definitive agreements with respect to such Superior Proposal and the documents with respect to any financing of such Superior Proposal) or (ii) if the basis of the proposed action by the Board of Directors of the Company is an Intervening Event, a description of the Intervening Event and, unless the Company shall have:

(i) (A) during the five (5) Business Day period specified above (and any additional period provided for below), negotiated, and caused its financial and legal advisors to negotiate, with Parent and its Representatives in good faith (to the extent Parent desires to negotiate) with respect to proposed adjustments to the terms and conditions of this Agreement so that such Superior Proposal ceases to constitute a Superior Proposal (or, in the case of a Notice of Adverse Recommendation that is in response to an Intervening Event, so that the failure to make such Adverse Recommendation Change is no longer inconsistent with the Board of Directors of the Company’s fiduciary duties under applicable Law), and (B) no earlier than the end of such negotiation period, the Board of Directors of the Company shall have determined in good faith, after consultation with the Company’s financial advisor and outside legal counsel, and after considering the terms of any proposed amendment or modification to this Agreement, that (x) in the case of a Notice of Superior Proposal, the Takeover Proposal that is the subject of the Notice of Superior Proposal still constitutes a Superior Proposal, and (y) in the case of a Notice of Superior Proposal or Notice of Adverse Recommendation, that the failure to take the action specified in such notice would still be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under applicable Law; and

(ii) prior to or concurrently with a termination of this Agreement pursuant to this Section 4.02(g), paid the Company Termination Fee required under Section 5.06(b)(i).

-39-

In the event of any revisions to the Superior Proposal (or any material change to the facts and circumstances relevant to an Intervening Event) the Company shall be required to deliver a new Notice of Superior Proposal or Notice of Adverse Recommendation, as applicable, and to again comply with the requirements of this Section 4.02(g) with respect to such revised Superior Proposal or such modified Intervening Event (after giving effect to such changed facts and circumstances) (except that the new negotiation period shall expire on the later to occur of (x) two (2) Business Days following delivery of such new notice from the Company to Parent and (y) the expiration of the original five (5) Business Day period). The Company agrees that any violation of this Section 4.02 by any of the Company’s or its Subsidiaries’ respective Representatives shall be deemed to be a breach of this Agreement by the Company. In determining whether to make an Adverse Recommendation Change or to cause the Company to so terminate this Agreement pursuant to the terms of this Section 4.02(g), the Board of Directors of the Company shall take into account any changes to the financial and other terms of this Agreement proposed by Parent to the Company in response to a Notice of Adverse Recommendation or Notice of Superior Proposal.

(h) “Intervening Event” means a material event or circumstance that was not known or reasonably foreseeable to the Board of Directors of the Company on the date of this Agreement (or if known, the consequences of which are not known to or reasonably foreseeable by such Board of Directors as of the date hereof), which event or circumstance, or any consequence thereof, becomes known to the Board of Directors of the Company prior to the time at which the Company receives the Company Stockholder Approval; provided, however, that in no event shall any of the following constitute an Intervening Event: (i) the receipt or existence of any inquiry, offer or proposal that constitutes or would reasonably be expected to lead to a Takeover Proposal, or (ii) any change in stock price or trading volume of the Company Common Stock or Parent Common Stock or the fact, in and of itself, that the Company meets or exceeds (or that Parent fails to meet or exceed) internal or published estimates, projections or forecasts for any period (provided, that the facts or causes underlying or contributing to such change, or to the meeting or exceeding (or failure to meet or exceed, as applicable) such estimates, projections or forecasts shall not be excluded by this clause (ii)).

(i) Nothing contained in this Section 4.02 or elsewhere in this Agreement shall prohibit the Company from (i) taking and disclosing to its stockholders a position contemplated by Rule 14d-9 or Rule 14e-2(a) promulgated under the Exchange Act or (ii) making any disclosure to its stockholders if the Board of Directors of the Company determines in good faith (after consultation with its outside counsel) that failure to do so would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under applicable Law; provided, that (x) nothing in this Section 4.02(i) shall be deemed to permit the Board of Directors of the Company to make an Adverse Recommendation Change or take any of the actions referred to in clause (ii) of Section 4.02(g) except, in each case, to the extent permitted by Section 4.02(g) and (y) in any disclosure made pursuant to clause (i) or (ii) of this Section 4.02(i) (other than any disclosure made in connection with an Adverse Recommendation Change permitted by Section 4.02(g)), the Board of Directors of the Company shall expressly publicly reaffirm the Company Recommendation.

ARTICLE V

Additional Agreements

SECTION 5.01. Preparation of the Form S-4 and Proxy Statement; Company Stockholders’ Meeting.

(a) As promptly as practicable after the execution of this Agreement, (i) Parent and the Company shall jointly prepare and file with the SEC the proxy statement (as amended or supplemented from time to time, the “Proxy Statement”) to be sent to the stockholders of the Company relating to the meeting of the Company’s stockholders (the “Company Stockholders’ Meeting”) to be held to consider adoption of this Agreement and (ii) Parent shall prepare (with the Company’s reasonable cooperation) and file with the SEC a registration statement on Form S-4 (as amended or supplemented from time to time, the “Form S-4”), in which the Proxy Statement will be included as a prospectus, in connection with the registration under the Securities Act of the Parent Common Stock to be issued in the Merger. Each of Parent and the Company shall use its reasonable best

-40-

efforts to have the Form S-4 declared effective under the Securities Act as promptly as practicable after such filing (including by responding to comments of the SEC), and, prior to the effective date of the Form S-4, Parent shall take all action reasonably required to be taken under any applicable state securities Laws in connection with the Parent Share Issuance. Each of Parent and the Company shall furnish all information as may be reasonably requested by the other in connection with any such action and the preparation, filing and distribution of the Form S-4 and the Proxy Statement. As promptly as practicable after the Form S-4 shall have become effective, the Company shall cause the Proxy Statement to be mailed to its stockholders. No filing of, or amendment or supplement to, the Form S-4 will be made by Parent, and no filing of, or amendment or supplement to, the Proxy Statement will made by Parent or the Company, in each case, without providing the other party a reasonable opportunity to review and comment thereon. If at any time prior to the Effective Time any information relating to the Company or Parent, or any of their respective Affiliates, directors or officers, should be discovered by the Company or Parent which should be set forth in an amendment or supplement to either the Form S-4 or the Proxy Statement, so that either such document would not include any misstatement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they are made, not misleading, the party that discovers such information shall promptly notify the other parties hereto and an appropriate amendment or supplement describing such information shall be promptly filed with the SEC and, to the extent required by Law, disseminated to the stockholders of the Company. The parties hereto shall notify each other promptly of the time when the Form S-4 has become effective, of the issuance of any stop order or suspension of the qualification of the Parent Common Stock issuable in connection with the Merger for offering or sale in any jurisdiction, or of the receipt of any comments from the SEC or the staff of the SEC and of any request by the SEC or the staff of the SEC for amendments or supplements to the Proxy Statement or the Form S-4 or for additional information and shall supply each other with copies of all correspondence between it or any of its Representatives, on the one hand, and the SEC or its staff, on the other hand, with respect to the Proxy Statement, the Form S-4 or the Merger.

(b) The Company shall, as promptly as reasonably practicable following the effectiveness of the Form S-4 and subject to applicable Law, the Company Certificate of Incorporation, the Company Bylaws and the rules of New York Stock Exchange, establish a record date for, duly call, give notice of, convene and hold the Company Stockholders’ Meeting (the date of such meeting in no event being later than forty-five (45) days following the effectiveness of the Form S-4 unless otherwise agreed by Parent and the Company), and submit this Agreement to its stockholders for adoption, for the purpose of obtaining the Company Stockholder Approval. The Company shall not submit any other proposal to such stockholders in connection with the Company Stockholders’ Meeting (other than an advisory vote regarding merger-related compensation and a customary proposal regarding adjournment of the Company Stockholders’ Meeting) without the prior written consent of Parent. Unless the Board of Directors of the Company has made an Adverse Recommendation Change pursuant to Section 4.02(g), the Company shall, (i) through its Board of Directors, recommend to its stockholders adoption of this Agreement and shall include the Company Recommendation in the Proxy Statement and (ii) use reasonable best efforts to obtain from its stockholders the Company Stockholder Approval in favor of the adoption of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Company shall not adjourn or postpone the Company Stockholders’ Meeting without Parent’s prior written consent; provided that without Parent’s prior written consent, the Company may, to the extent permitted by the Company Certificate of Incorporation and the Company Bylaws and applicable Law, adjourn or postpone the Company Stockholders’ Meeting (i) after consultation with Parent, to the extent necessary to ensure that any required supplement or amendment to the Proxy Statement is provided to the stockholders of the Company within a reasonable amount of time in advance of the Company Stockholders’ Meeting or (ii) if as of the time for which the Company Stockholders’ Meeting is originally scheduled (as set forth in the Proxy Statement) there are insufficient shares of Company Common Stock represented (either in person or by proxy) to constitute a quorum necessary to conduct the business of the Company Stockholders’ Meeting, provided, further, that (x) any such adjournment or postponement shall be for a period of no more than ten (10) Business Days each, and (y) the Company shall only be permitted to effect up to two (2) such adjournments or postponements pursuant to this clause (ii) (in the aggregate); and provided, further, that no postponement contemplated by this clause (ii) shall be permitted if it would require a change to the record date for the Company Stockholders’ Meeting.

-41-

(c) Unless this Agreement is validly terminated in accordance with Article VII, the Company shall submit this Agreement to its stockholders for adoption at the Company Stockholders’ Meeting even if the Board of Directors of the Company shall have effected an Adverse Recommendation Change.

SECTION 5.02. Access to Information; Confidentiality. The Company shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, provide Parent, Sub and their respective officers, employees, accountants, counsel, consultants, financial advisors and other Representatives, reasonable access during normal business hours during the period prior to the earlier of the Effective Time and the termination of this Agreement to all of the Company’s and its Subsidiaries’ properties, books and records and to those employees of the Company and its Subsidiaries, as applicable, to whom such persons reasonably request access, and, during such period, the Company and its Subsidiaries shall furnish as promptly as practicable to such persons all information concerning its and its Subsidiaries’ business, properties and personnel as such persons may reasonably request. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries shall be required to provide access to or disclose information if the Company reasonably determines that such access or disclosure would jeopardize the attorney-client privilege of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, as applicable, or contravene any Law to which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, as applicable, is subject or a party; provided, that in any such case, the Company shall provide such information in redacted form as necessary to preserve such privilege or comply with such Law or otherwise make appropriate substitute disclosure arrangements, to the extent possible. Except for disclosures expressly permitted by the terms of the confidentiality letter agreement dated as of March 17, 2022, between Intercontinental Exchange Holdings, Inc. and the Company (as such agreement may be amended or supplemented from time to time, the “Confidentiality Agreement”), each of the Company and Parent shall hold, and shall cause their respective officers, employees, accountants, counsel, financial advisors and other Representatives to hold, all information received from the other party or its Representatives, directly or indirectly, in confidence in accordance with the Confidentiality Agreement. No information or knowledge obtained by any person in any investigation pursuant to this Section 5.02 shall affect or be deemed to modify any representation or warranty made by any party hereto.

SECTION 5.03. Reasonable Best Efforts.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, each of the Company and Parent shall use its respective reasonable best efforts to (i) cause the Transactions to be consummated as soon as practicable, (ii) obtain all actions or non-actions, approvals, consents, waivers, registrations, permits, authorizations and other confirmations from any Governmental Entity or third party necessary, proper or advisable to consummate the Transactions as soon as practicable, (iii) make promptly any required submissions and filings under applicable Antitrust Laws with respect to the Transactions, (iv) as soon as practicable furnish information required in connection with such submissions and filings under such Antitrust Laws, and (v) keep the other parties hereto reasonably informed with respect to the status of any such submissions and filings under Antitrust Laws, including with respect to: (A) the receipt of any non-action, action, clearance, consent, approval or waiver, (B) the expiration of any waiting period, (C) the commencement or proposed or threatened commencement of any investigation, litigation or administrative or judicial action or proceeding under Antitrust Laws and (D) the nature and status of any objections raised or proposed or threatened to be raised under Antitrust Laws with respect to the Transactions. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, each of the Company and Parent agree to (i) make, or with respect to the parties’ respective Affiliates, cause to be made, appropriate filings pursuant to the HSR Act with respect to the Transactions as soon as practicable (and, in any event, within ten (10) Business Days after the date hereof (unless Parent and the Company otherwise agree to a different date)), (ii) cooperate with each other with respect to the preparation of such filings under the HSR Act, (iii) supply as soon as practicable any additional information and documentary material that may be requested pursuant to the HSR Act or any other Antitrust Law, (iv) in the event that any applicable Governmental Entity issues a so-called “second request” (a “Second Request”) in relation to the Transactions, use best efforts to be ready to certify substantial compliance within four months after the date of receipt of such Second Request, and (v) use its reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all other actions necessary to cause the expiration or termination of the applicable waiting periods under the HSR Act (including any extensions thereof) as soon as

-42-

practicable, consistent with this Section 5.03 and subject to the limitations on Parent’s duties specified in Section 5.03(c). Parent shall be responsible for all filing fees under the HSR Act and other Antitrust Laws. The parties hereto shall cause the filings under the HSR Act to be considered for grant of “early termination”.

(b) Each party hereto shall: (i) promptly notify the other parties hereto 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 communication to such person from a Governmental Entity and permit the others to review and discuss in advance (and to consider in good faith any comments made by the others in relation to) any proposed written communication to a Governmental Entity, (ii) keep the others reasonably informed of any developments, meetings or discussions with any Governmental Entity in respect of any filings, investigation, or inquiry concerning the Transactions and (iii) not independently participate in any meeting or discussions with a Governmental Entity in respect of any filings, investigation or inquiry concerning the Transactions without giving the other parties prior notice of such meeting or discussions and, unless prohibited by such Governmental Entity, the opportunity to attend or participate. However, (A) each of Parent and the Company may designate any non-public information provided to any Governmental Entity as restricted to “Outside Antitrust Counsel Only” and any such information shall not be shared with employees, officers, managers or directors or their equivalents of the other parties hereto without approval of the party providing the non-public information, and (B) materials may be redacted (x) to remove references concerning the valuation of the Company, (y) as necessary to comply with contractual arrangements and (z) as necessary to address reasonable attorney-client or other privilege or confidentiality concerns.

(c) In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, each party to this Agreement agrees to use its reasonable best efforts to take, and to cause its Affiliates to take, promptly any and all steps necessary to avoid, eliminate or resolve each and every impediment and obtain all clearances, consents, approvals and waivers under the Antitrust Laws applicable to the Transactions so as to enable the parties hereto to close the Transactions as soon as practicable (and in any event no later than five (5) Business Days prior to the Outside Date), provided, however, that such obligation shall not require Parent or any of its Affiliates to agree to any structural or behavioral remedy required by any Governmental Entity to satisfy its obligations in this Section 5.03 or the condition set forth in Section 6.01(b).

(d) In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, in the event that any litigation or other administrative or judicial action or proceeding by any Governmental Entity or private third party is commenced, threatened or is foreseeable challenging any of the Transactions under an Antitrust Law and such litigation, action or proceeding seeks, or would reasonably be expected to seek, to prevent, materially impede or materially delay the consummation of the Transactions, Parent and the Company shall, at the option of Parent, cooperate with each other and contest and resist any such litigation, action or proceeding and to have vacated, lifted, reversed or overturned any decree, judgment, injunction or other order, whether temporary, preliminary or permanent, that is in effect and that prohibits, prevents or restricts consummation of the Transactions as promptly as practicable and in any event no later than five (5) Business Days prior to the Outside Date.

(e) Notwithstanding the foregoing, Parent shall, in all cases, after consultation with the Company, use good faith efforts to consider and reflect all views and input provided by the Company with respect to such matters, (A) determine timing and strategy and be solely responsible for the final content of any substantive oral or written communications with any applicable Governmental Entity (provided, however, that Parent shall not be responsible for the factual representations relating to the Company contained in filings under the HSR Act, or factual responses to compulsory process, that are made by the Company without any input from Parent), and (B) lead all proceedings and coordinate all activities, in each such case under clauses (A) and (B) with respect to seeking actions, consents, approvals or waivers of any Governmental Entity under any Antitrust Laws; provided, that without the Company’s prior written consent (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), Parent may not withdraw any filing under the HSR Act (provided, however, that Parent may “withdraw and refile” its initial filing under the HSR Act one time in the manner prescribed by 16 CFR § 803.12(c) without the Company’s consent) or enter into any so-called “timing agreement” or similar agreement with any Governmental

-43-

Entity responsible for enforcing Antitrust Laws if such agreement would prevent or render impossible the occurrence of the Closing prior to the Outside Date.

(f) Parent shall not, nor shall it permit its Affiliates to, acquire or agree to acquire any rights, assets, business, person or division thereof (through acquisition, license, joint venture, collaboration or otherwise), if such acquisition could reasonably be expected to delay obtaining or increase the risk of not obtaining any clearance, consent, approval or waiver under the HSR Act and any other Antitrust Laws applicable to the Transactions.

(g) For purposes of this Agreement, “reasonable best efforts” of the Company will require, in addition to its other obligations under Section 5.03, the Company (but only to the extent requested by Parent) to commit to and effect, by consent decree, hold separate orders, trust, or otherwise, (i) the sale, license, holding separate or other disposition of assets or businesses of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, (ii) terminating, relinquishing, modifying or waiving existing relationships, ventures, contractual rights, obligations or other arrangements of the Company or its Subsidiaries, (iii) creating any relationships, ventures, contractual rights, obligations or other arrangements of the Company or its Subsidiaries and (iv) any other action, including agreeing to future behavioral remedies, requested by a Governmental Entity (each a “Remedial Action”); provided, however, that any Remedial Action may, at the discretion of the Company, be conditioned upon consummation of the Transactions.

SECTION 5.04. Employee Matters.

(a) Following the Effective Time and until the first anniversary of the Closing Date, Parent shall provide, or shall cause the Surviving Corporation to provide, each individual who is employed by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries immediately before the Effective Time (the “Company Employees”) and who continues employment with (i) annual base compensation (base salary or base wage, as applicable) that is no less favorable than the annual base compensation (base salary or base wage, as applicable) provided to such Company Employee immediately prior to the Effective Time, (ii) target cash incentive opportunities that are no less favorable than the target cash incentive opportunities provided to such Company Employee immediately prior to the Effective Time, (iii) target equity incentive opportunities that are no less favorable than those provided by Parent or its Subsidiaries to similarly situated employees, and (iv) other employee benefits and compensation (excluding severance payments and severance benefits) that are no less favorable in the aggregate to the other employee benefits and compensation (excluding severance payments and severance benefits) provided to such Company Employee immediately prior to the Effective Time. In addition, upon a termination of a Company Employee’s employment other than for cause prior to the first anniversary of the Closing Date, Parent shall provide, or shall cause the Surviving Corporation to provide, the severance payments and benefits as set forth on Section 5.04(a) of the Company Disclosure Letter. Further, Parent shall, or shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, continue the Company’s annual bonus program for the remainder of the calendar year in which the Effective Time occurs and administer it in the ordinary course consistent with past practice and taking into account the determinations made prior to the Effective Time with respect to such annual bonus program or target amounts thereunder pursuant to Section 4.01(a)(xiii) of the Company Disclosure Letter.

(b) Without limiting the generality of Section 5.04(a), from and after the Effective Time, Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries to honor all obligations under the Company Benefit Plans and Company Benefit Agreements, in each case in accordance with their terms as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, including with respect to any payments, benefits or rights arising as a result of the Transactions (either alone or in combination with any other event); provided, however, that nothing in this Section 5.04(b) shall prevent Parent, the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries from amending or terminating such plans or agreements in accordance with their terms or applicable Law.

(c) With respect to all plans maintained by Parent, the Surviving Corporation or their respective Subsidiaries (including any vacation, paid time-off and severance plans), for all purposes, including determining eligibility to

-44-

participate, level of benefits, and vesting (but excluding benefit accruals), each Company Employee’s service with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (as well as service with any predecessor employer of the Company or any such Subsidiary, to the extent service with the predecessor employer is recognized by the Company or such Subsidiary) shall be treated as service with Parent, the Surviving Corporation or any of their respective Subsidiaries to the extent such service was recognized under the comparable Company Benefit Plan immediately prior to the Effective Time; provided, however, that such service need not be recognized to the extent that such recognition would result in any duplication of benefits for the same period of service.

(d) Without limiting the generality of Section 5.04(a), Parent shall use reasonable best efforts to cause to be waived any pre-existing condition limitations, exclusions, actively-at-work requirements and waiting periods under any welfare benefit plan maintained by Parent, the Surviving Corporation or any of their respective Subsidiaries in which Company Employees (and their eligible dependents) will be eligible to participate from and after the Effective Time, except to the extent that such pre-existing condition limitations, exclusions, actively-at-work requirements and waiting periods would not have been satisfied or waived under the comparable Company Benefit Plan immediately prior to the Effective Time. Parent shall use reasonable best efforts to recognize, or cause to be recognized, the dollar amount of all co-payments, deductibles and similar expenses incurred by each Company Employee (and his or her eligible dependents) during the calendar year in which the Effective Time occurs for purposes of satisfying such year’s deductible and co-payment limitations under the relevant welfare benefit plans in which they will be eligible to participate from and after the Effective Time.

(e) For the avoidance of doubt and notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any Company Benefit Plan or Company Benefit Agreement, for purposes of any Company Benefit Plan or Company Benefit Agreement containing a definition of “change in control” of the Company or “change of control” of the Company, the Closing shall be deemed to constitute a “change in control” or “change of control”; provided, that unless explicitly provided for under this Agreement (including Section 3.01(i)(viii) of the Company Disclosure Letter), the Closing shall not constitute a “change in control” of a Subsidiary, “change of control” of a Subsidiary or “sale” of a Subsidiary of the Company for purposes of any Company Benefit Plan or Company Benefit Agreement; provided, further, for purposes of any such Company Benefit Plans or Company Benefit Agreements that provide for deferred compensation within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code, the foregoing shall not accelerate the time of payment or distribution of any such deferred compensation (but shall accelerate vesting if provided for in accordance with the terms thereof) if the transactions contemplated by this Agreement do not otherwise constitute a “change in control,” “change of control” or term of similar import under the applicable plan and to so declare as a “change in control,” “change of control” or term of similar import would result in an impermissible payment or distribution for purposes of Section 409A of the Code.

(f) The provisions of this Section 5.04 are solely for the benefit of the parties to this Agreement, and no other person (including any Company Employee or any beneficiary or dependent thereof) shall be regarded for any purpose as a third-party beneficiary of this Agreement, except as provided in Section 8.07, and no provision of this Section 5.04 shall create such rights in any such persons. No provision of this Agreement shall be construed (i) as a guarantee of continued employment of any Company Employee, (ii) to prohibit Parent or the Surviving Corporation from having the right to terminate the employment of any Company Employee or to prohibit the Company or any of its Subsidiaries from having the right to terminate the employment of any individual prior to the Effective Time, (iii) to prevent the amendment, modification or termination of any Company Benefit Plan or Company Benefit Agreement after the Closing (in each case in accordance with the terms of the applicable Company Benefit Plan or Company Benefit Agreement) or (iv) as an amendment or modification of the terms of any Company Benefit Plan or Company Benefit Agreement.

SECTION 5.05. Indemnification, Exculpation and Insurance.

(a) All rights to indemnification and exculpation from liabilities for acts or omissions occurring at or prior to the Effective Time and rights to advancement of expenses relating thereto now existing in favor of any person who is or prior to the Effective Time becomes, or has been at any time prior to the date of this Agreement, a

-45-

director, officer, employee or agent (including as a fiduciary with respect to a Company Benefit Plan) of the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective predecessors as provided in the Company Certificate of Incorporation, the Company Bylaws, the organizational documents of any Subsidiary of the Company or any indemnification agreement set forth in Section 5.05(a) of the Company Disclosure Letter, between a director, officer, employee or agent (including as a fiduciary with respect to a Company Benefit Plan) of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries and the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (in each case, as in effect on the date hereof) shall survive the Merger and shall not be amended, repealed or otherwise modified in any manner that would adversely affect any right thereunder of any such director, officer, employee or agent.

(b) Without limiting Section 5.05(a) or any rights of any director or officer of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective predecessors (each, an “Indemnified Party”) pursuant to any indemnification agreement, from and after the Effective Time, in the event of any threatened or actual claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation (a “Claim”), whether civil, criminal or administrative, based in whole or in part on, or arising in whole or in part out of, or pertaining to (i) the fact that the Indemnified Party is or was a director (including in a capacity as a member of any board committee) or officer of the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective predecessors or (ii) this Agreement or any of the Transactions, whether in any case asserted or arising before or after the Effective Time, Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation or the applicable Subsidiary to indemnify and hold harmless, as and to the fullest extent permitted by Law, each such Indemnified Party against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities, costs, expenses (including reasonable attorney’s fees and expenses in advance of the final disposition of any claim, suit, proceeding or investigation to each Indemnified Party to the fullest extent permitted by Law upon receipt of any undertaking required by applicable Law), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement of or in connection with any such threatened or actual Claim. None of Parent or the Surviving Corporation shall settle, compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment in any threatened or actual Claim for which indemnification would reasonably be expected to be sought by an Indemnified Party hereunder, unless such settlement, compromise or consent includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Party from all liability arising out of such Claim or such Indemnified Party otherwise consents in writing to such settlement, compromise or consent. Parent and the Surviving Corporation shall cooperate with an Indemnified Party in the defense of any matter for which such Indemnified Party could seek indemnification hereunder. Parent’s and the Surviving Corporation’s obligations under this Section 5.05(b) shall continue in full force and effect for a period of six years from the Effective Time; provided, however, that all rights to indemnification in respect of any Claim asserted or made within such period shall continue until the final disposition of such Claim.

(c) The Company may (or, at the request of Parent, shall use commercially reasonable efforts to) obtain, at or prior to the Effective Time, prepaid (or “tail”) directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policies in respect of acts or omissions occurring at or prior to the Effective Time for six years from the Effective Time, covering each Indemnified Party on terms with respect to such coverage and amounts no less favorable than those of such policies in effect on the date of this Agreement; provided, however, that, without the prior written consent of Parent, the Company may not expend therefor in excess of 300% of the annual amount (the “Annual Amount”) paid by the Company for coverage as of the date of this Agreement (such amount, equal to 300% of the annual amount, the “D&O Tail Premium Cap”). In the event the Company does not obtain such “tail” insurance policies, then, for a period of six years from the Effective Time, Parent shall maintain in effect the Company’s current directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policies in respect of acts or omissions occurring at or prior to the Effective Time, covering each Indemnified Party on terms with respect to such coverage and amounts no less favorable than those of such policies in effect on the date of this Agreement; provided, however, that Parent may substitute therefor policies of a reputable and financially sound insurance company containing terms, including with respect to coverage and amounts, no less favorable to any Indemnified Party; provided, further, however, that in satisfying its obligation under this Section 5.05(c), Parent shall not be obligated to pay for coverage for any 12-month period aggregate premiums for insurance in excess of the D&O Tail Premium Cap, it being understood and agreed that Parent shall nevertheless be obligated to provide such coverage as may be obtained for the Annual Amount.

-46-

(d) In the event that Parent or 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 corporation or entity of such consolidation or merger or (ii) transfers or conveys all or a substantial portion of its properties and other assets to any person, or if Parent dissolves the Surviving Corporation, then, and in each such case, Parent shall cause proper provision to be made so that the applicable successors and assigns or transferees expressly assume the obligations set forth in this Section 5.05.

(e) The provisions of this Section 5.05 are intended to be for the benefit of, and will be enforceable by, each Indemnified Party, his or her heirs and his or her representatives, and are in addition to, and not in substitution for, any other rights to indemnification or contribution that any such person may have by contract or otherwise.

SECTION 5.06. Fees and Expenses.

(a) Except as provided in Section 5.03, Section 5.05, Section 5.06(b) and Section 5.09, all fees and expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement and the Transactions shall be paid by the party incurring such fees or expenses, whether or not the Transactions are consummated.

(b) In the event that:

(i) this Agreement is terminated by the Company pursuant to Section 7.01(f); or

(ii) (A) after the date of this Agreement, a Takeover Proposal shall have been publicly made to the Company or shall have been made directly to the stockholders of the Company generally or shall have otherwise become publicly known, (B) thereafter, this Agreement is terminated (1) by Parent or the Company pursuant to Section 7.01(b)(iii), (2) by Parent or the Company pursuant to Section 7.01(b)(i) (but only if the Company Stockholders’ Meeting has not been held by the Outside Date) or (3) by Parent pursuant to Section 7.01(c) (and at such time the Company Stockholder Approval has not been obtained) and (C) within twelve months after such termination, the Company enters into a definitive agreement to consummate or consummates the transactions contemplated by any Takeover Proposal; or

(iii) this Agreement is terminated by Parent pursuant to Section 7.01(e);

then, in each case, the Company shall pay Parent or its designee(s) an aggregate fee equal to the Company Termination Fee by wire transfer of same-day funds (1) in the case of a payment required by clause (i) above, on the date of termination of this Agreement, (2) in the case of a payment required by clause (iii) above, within two (2) Business Days following termination of this Agreement, and (3) in the case of a payment required by clause (ii) above, on the earlier of the date of entry into a definitive agreement or the date of consummation referred to in clause (ii)(C), it being understood that in no event shall the Company be required to pay the Company Termination Fee on more than one occasion. For purposes of this Section 5.06(b), the term “Takeover Proposal” shall have the meaning assigned to such term in Section 4.02(a) except that all references to 15% therein shall be deemed to be references to 50%.

(i) by Parent or the Company pursuant to Section 7.01(b)(i) and at the time of such termination (A) the conditions set forth in Section 6.01(b) or Section 6.01(c) (to the extent the Restraint relates to an Antitrust Law) has not been satisfied, (B) a Willful Breach by the Company of its obligations under Section 5.03 has not been the primary cause of one or more of the conditions set forth in Section 6.01(b) or Section 6.01(c) (to the extent the Restraint relates to an Antitrust Law) to not be satisfied and (C) all other conditions to the obligations of Parent and Sub to effect the Merger set forth in Section 6.01 (including Section 6.01(c) to the extent the Restraint does not relate to an Antitrust Law) and Section 6.02 have been satisfied or (to the extent permitted by applicable Law) waived (or, in the case of those conditions that by their terms are to be satisfied at the Closing, such conditions are capable of being satisfied if the Closing were to occur), other than those conditions the failure of which to be satisfied is primarily attributable to a breach by Parent or Sub of their representations, warranties, covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement; or

(ii) by Parent or the Company pursuant to Section 7.01(b)(ii) (to the extent the Restraint relates to an Antitrust Law), and, at the time of such termination, a Willful Breach by the Company of its obligations under Section 5.03 has not been the primary cause of such Restraint or such imposition of such Restraint;

then Parent shall promptly (and in any event within two (2) Business Days following termination of this Agreement) pay to the Company an aggregate fee equal to the Parent Termination Fee by wire transfer of same-day funds.

(e) Each of the parties hereto acknowledges and agrees that the agreements contained in this Section 5.06 are an integral part of the Transactions, and that, without these agreements, the other parties hereto would not have entered into this Agreement; accordingly, if the Company or Parent, as the case may be, fails promptly to pay any amount due pursuant to this Section 5.06, and, in order to obtain such payment, the Company or Parent, as the case may be, commences a suit that results in a judgment against the other party for the payment set forth in this Section 5.06, such paying party shall pay to the other party or parties, as applicable, its costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees and expenses) in connection with such suit, together with interest on the amount of such amount from the date such payment was required to be made until the date of payment at the prime rate as published in The Wall Street Journal in effect on the date such payment was required to be made (“Collection Expenses”).

SECTION 5.07. Public Announcements. The parties hereto agree that the initial press release to be issued with respect to the Transactions shall be in the form heretofore agreed to by the parties. From the date of such announcement through the Closing Date, and so long as this Agreement is in effect, none of the Company, Parent or Sub shall issue or cause the publication of any public press release or other public announcement concerning the Transactions without the prior consultation and consent of the other parties hereto (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), except as may be required by applicable Law, court process or the rules and regulations of any national securities exchange or national securities quotation system and except for any matters referred to in Section 4.02 or in connection with any dispute between the parties hereto regarding this Agreement or the Transactions.

(a) Prior to the Closing Date, the Company shall provide, and cause its Subsidiaries to provide, and shall request that its Representatives provide, to Parent and Sub such cooperation as is reasonably requested by Parent in connection with the arrangement of the Debt Financing (it being understood that the receipt of such financing is not a condition to the obligations of Parent and Sub under this Agreement), including using its reasonable best efforts to (i) participate in a reasonable number of requested meetings (including customary one-on-one meetings that are requested in advance with the parties acting as lead arrangers, underwriters or agents for, and prospective lenders and purchasers of, the Debt Financing and the Company’s senior management and Representatives), presentations, roadshows, due diligence sessions, drafting sessions and sessions with rating agencies in connection with the Debt Financing, (ii) assist with the preparation of customary materials for rating agency presentations, offering documents, public and private bank information memoranda and similar documents reasonably required in connection with the Debt Financing, (iii) furnish, unless then filed with the SEC, (a) the audited annual financial statements of the Company required to be included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for each completed fiscal year of the Company ended at least sixty (60) days prior to the Closing Date and (b) the unaudited interim financial statements required to be included in the Company’s quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2022 and each subsequent fiscal quarter (other than the fourth fiscal quarter of any fiscal year) ended on a date that is at least forty (40) days before the Closing Date, in each case as promptly as reasonably practicable in light of the Company’s customary financial reporting practice, (iv) provide Parent with reasonable assistance in connection with Parent’s preparation of customary pro forma financial statements for any Debt Financing, (v) cause its independent accountants to provide reasonable assistance to Parent consistent with customary practice (including to provide and consent to the use of their audit reports relating to the Company’s consolidated financial statements), and any necessary “comfort letters” (which shall include customary “negative assurance” comfort) and to provide customary representation letters to the extent required by such independent accountants in connection with the foregoing, in each case, on customary terms and consistent with customary practice in connection with the Debt Financing and (vi) arrange for a customary payoff letter and lien terminations to be delivered at Closing providing for the payoff, discharge and termination on the Closing Date of all indebtedness contemplated under the Company Credit Agreement (subject to Parent or Sub providing funds to the Company as of the Closing to pay all such amounts) and to otherwise reasonably cooperate with Parent, upon Parent’s request and reasonable notice, in connection with the payoff, redemption, or satisfaction and discharge, of the Company Notes contingent upon the Closing. In no event shall the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or any of its Representatives be required pursuant to this Section 5.09 (including, for the avoidance of doubt, in connection with any Debt Financing or any Debt Offer) to (w) bear any cost or expense, pay any fee, enter into any definitive agreement, instrument or document (other than the execution of a supplemental indenture in connection with a Debt Offer described in Section 5.09(b) or the delivery of a notice of redemption in respect of the Company Notes in accordance with the applicable indenture that remains contingent on Closing) or incur any other liability, (x) take or commit to take any action pursuant to this Section 5.09 that (I) is not contingent upon the Closing, (II) would violate applicable Law, any organizational document or any material Contract of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, (III) would unreasonably interfere with the ongoing operations of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, (IV) would cause any representation or warranty in this Agreement to be breached by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or (V) would cause any officer, director or employee or stockholder of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to incur any personal liability, (y) pass resolutions or consents other than as the Company may deem necessary or advisable to authorize any action to be taken by it pursuant to Section 5.09, or (z) provide to any person or prepare any financial statements or information that (I) are not available to the Company and prepared in the ordinary course of its financial reporting practice or (II) the Company or any of its Subsidiaries determines would jeopardize any attorney-client privilege of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries. All non-public or otherwise confidential information regarding the Company or its Subsidiaries obtained by Parent or its Representatives pursuant to this Section 5.09 shall be kept confidential in accordance with the Confidentiality Agreement. The Company hereby consents to the use of its and its Subsidiaries’ logos in connection with the Debt Financing; provided, that such logos are used solely in a manner that is not intended to or reasonably likely to harm or disparage the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or the reputation or goodwill of the Company or any of its

-49-

Subsidiaries. Parent shall promptly, upon request by the Company, reimburse the Company for all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries and their respective Representatives in connection with the Debt Financing or any Debt Offer, including the cooperation of the Company and its Subsidiaries and Representatives contemplated by Section 5.09, and shall indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its Subsidiaries and their respective Representatives from and against any and all losses, damages, claims, costs or expenses suffered or incurred by any of them in connection with the arrangement of the Debt Financing or any Debt Offer and any information used in connection therewith, except with respect to any historical information provided by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries.

(b) Parent shall be permitted to commence and conduct offers to purchase or exchange, and conduct consent solicitations with respect to, the Company Notes, the consummation or completion of which shall be conditioned upon (and shall not occur prior to) the Closing and which offers to purchase or exchange or consent solicitations shall have such other terms and conditions, including pricing terms and amendments to the terms and provisions of the applicable indenture, as are specified, from time to time, by Parent in consultation with the Company (each, a “Debt Offer” and, collectively, the “Debt Offers”) and which are permitted by the terms of such Company Notes, the applicable indenture and applicable law, including the rules and regulations of the SEC. Parent shall consult with the Company regarding the material terms and conditions (including the timing) of any Debt Offer, and Parent shall not be permitted to commence any Debt Offer unless Parent shall have provided the Company with the necessary offer to purchase, exchange offer, consent solicitation statement, letter of transmittal or press release, if any, in connection with the Debt Offer, and each other document that will be distributed by Parent to holders of the Company Notes in the Debt Offer, in each case, a reasonable period of time in advance of commencing the applicable Debt Offer to allow the Company and its counsel to review and comment on such Debt Offer documents (which comments shall be considered in good faith by Parent). Subject to the receipt of the requisite holder consents, in connection with any or all of the consent solicitations, the Company shall execute a supplemental indenture to the applicable indenture in accordance with the terms thereof amending the terms and provisions thereof as described in the applicable Debt Offer documents in a form as reasonably requested by Parent; provided that the amendments effected by such supplemental indentures shall be conditioned upon, and shall not become operative until, the Closing. In connection with any such Debt Offers, the Company shall use reasonable best efforts to (i) deliver and to cause counsel for the Company to deliver to the trustee for the Company Notes, a customary legal opinion in connection with the execution and delivery of such a supplemental indenture, to the extent such opinion would not conflict with applicable law and would be accurate in light of the facts and circumstances at the time delivered and (ii) provide to Parent upon its reasonable request cooperation in a manner substantially similar to that set forth in Section 5.09(a) with respect to any Debt Financing, to the extent customary in connection with such a Debt Offer. The dealer manager, solicitation agent, information agent, depositary or other agent retained in connection with the Debt Offers will be selected and retained by Parent after consultation with the Company and their fees and out-of-pocket expenses will be paid directly by Parent. The consummation of any or all Debt Offers shall not be a condition to the Closing.

(c) Parent and Sub shall keep the Company informed on a timely basis in reasonable detail of any material developments relating to the Debt Financing and the Debt Offers.

SECTION 5.10. Rule 16b-3. Prior to the Effective Time, each of Parent and the Company shall take such steps as may be reasonably necessary or advisable to cause dispositions of Company equity securities (including derivative securities) or acquisitions of Parent Common Stock or Parent equity securities (including derivative securities with respect to Parent Common Stock) pursuant to the Transactions by each individual who is a director or officer of the Company subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act to be exempt under Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act.

SECTION 5.11. Sub and Surviving Corporation Compliance.

SECTION 7.02. Effect of Termination.

(a) In the event of termination of this Agreement as provided in Section 7.01, this Agreement shall forthwith become void and have no effect, without any liability or obligation on the part of Parent, Sub or the Company, other than the provisions of the second to last sentence of Section 5.02, Section 5.06, the indemnification and reimbursement obligations pursuant to Section 5.09(a), this Section 7.02 and Article VIII, which provisions shall survive such termination; provided, however, that nothing herein (except as provided otherwise in Section 7.02(b)) shall relieve the Company, Parent or Sub from liability for fraud or any Willful Breach of any of

-54-

its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements set forth in this Agreement, and the aggrieved party will be entitled to all rights and remedies available at law or in equity, including (i) in the case of fraud or a breach by Parent or Sub, liability to the Company for damages, determined taking into account all relevant factors, including, without duplication, the loss of the benefit of the Merger to the Company and the lost stockholder premium and any benefit to Parent or its stockholders arising from such fraud or breach, and (ii) in the case of fraud or a breach by the Company, liability to Parent for damages determined taking into account all relevant factors, including the loss of the benefit of the Merger to Parent and any benefit to the Company or its stockholders arising from such fraud or breach, and provided, further, that the Confidentiality Agreement shall survive such termination, each in accordance with its terms. For purposes of this Agreement, “Willful Breach” means a material breach that is a consequence of an act undertaken or failure to act by the breaching party with knowledge that the taking of or failure to take such act would cause a material breach of this Agreement.

(b) For the avoidance of doubt, each party hereto may pursue both a grant of specific performance in accordance with Section 8.10 and the payment of the Company Termination Fee or the Parent Termination Fee or damages for any Willful Breach of this Agreement, as applicable; provided, however, that under no circumstance shall any party hereto be entitled to receive both (i) a grant of specific performance under Section 8.10 of the other parties’ obligations to consummate the Closing as contemplated by this Agreement which results in such consummation and (ii) the payment of damages or all or any portion of the Company Termination Fee or the Parent Termination Fee, as applicable. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, but without limiting the parties’ rights to pursue specific performance in accordance with Section 8.10, in the event that this Agreement is terminated by a party hereto under circumstances where the Parent Termination Fee or the Company Termination Fee is payable pursuant to Section 5.06 and is so paid, the payment of the Parent Termination Fee or the Company Termination Fee, as applicable, to the party entitled to receive such payment (together with any Collection Expenses) shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of the Company, Parent or their respective Subsidiaries and their respective former, current or further partners, stockholders, managers, members, Affiliates and Representatives, as applicable, and none of Parent, the Company, any of their respective Subsidiaries or any of their respective former, current or future partners, stockholders, managers, members, Affiliates or Representatives, as applicable, shall have any further liability or obligation relating to or arising out of this Agreement or the Transactions. In addition (i) if Parent or Sub receive any payments from the Company in respect of any breach of this Agreement and thereafter Parent receives the Company Termination Fee pursuant to Section 5.06, the amount of such Company Termination Fee shall be reduced by the aggregate amount of such payments made by the Company prior to paying the Company Termination Fee in respect of any such breaches and (ii) if the Company receives any payments from Parent or Sub in respect of any breach of this Agreement and thereafter the Company receives the Parent Termination Fee pursuant to Section 5.06, the amount of such Parent Termination Fee shall be reduced by the aggregate amount of such payments made by Parent or Sub prior to paying the Parent Termination Fee in respect of any such breaches. The parties agree and understand that (w) in no event shall the Company be required to pay the Company Termination Fee on more than one occasion, (x) in no event shall Parent be required to pay the Parent Termination Fee on more than one occasion, (y) in no event shall Parent be entitled, pursuant to Section 5.06, to receive an amount greater than an amount equal to (A) the Company Termination Fee plus (B) any Collection Expenses, and (z) in no event shall the Company be entitled, pursuant to Section 5.06, to receive an amount greater than an amount equal to (A) the Parent Termination Fee plus (B) any Collection Expenses.

SECTION 7.03. Amendment. This Agreement may be amended by the parties hereto at any time before or after receipt of the Company Stockholder Approval; provided, however, that after such approval has been obtained, there shall be made no amendment that by Law requires further approval by the stockholders of the Company without such approval having been obtained. This Agreement may not be amended except by an instrument in writing signed on behalf of each of the parties hereto.

SECTION 7.04. Extension; Waiver. At any time prior to the Effective Time, Parent, on behalf of itself and Sub, and the Company may (a) extend the time for the performance of any of the obligations or other acts of the other, (b) to the extent permitted by Law, waive any inaccuracies in the representations and warranties of the

-55-

other contained herein or in any document delivered pursuant hereto or (c) subject to the proviso to the first sentence of Section 7.03 and to the extent permitted by Law, waive compliance with any of the agreements or conditions for its benefit contained herein. Any agreement on the part of a party to any such extension or waiver shall be valid only if set forth in an instrument in writing signed on behalf of such party. The failure of any party to this Agreement to assert any of its rights under this Agreement or otherwise shall not constitute a waiver of such rights.

ARTICLE VIII

General Provisions

SECTION 8.01. Nonsurvival of Representations and Warranties. None of the representations and warranties in this Agreement or in any instrument delivered pursuant to this Agreement shall survive the Effective Time.
