Each Proxy shall be irrevocable to the fullest extent provided in Section 212 of the Delaware General Corporation Law (the “DGCL”) with respect to the securities referred to therein.

Section 2.2 Agreement to Vote.

(a) At any meeting of the stockholders or holders of other securities of the Company, however called, and at every adjournment or postponement thereof, or in connection with any written consent of, or any other action by, the stockholders or other holders of securities of the Company given or solicited, each Stockholder shall vote, or provide his or her consent with respect to, all of such Stockholder’s Subject Securities entitled to vote or to consent thereon: (i) in favor of adoption, approval and consummation of the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby (including, without limitation, the Merger and the Spin-Off) and any actions required in furtherance thereof and (ii) against any Alternative Transaction or any other action or agreement that would result in a breach in any material respect of any covenant, representation or warranty or any other obligation or agreement of the Company under the Merger Agreement or that is intended, or could reasonably be expected, to materially impede, interfere with, delay, postpone, discourage or adversely affect the consummation of the Merger or the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement.

(b) Each Stockholder hereby agrees that he or she shall not directly or indirectly enter into any agreement (whether written or oral) with any other Person (other than Buyer) to vote, grant any proxy or give instructions with respect to the voting of, any Subject Securities that are Beneficially Owned by such Stockholder.

Section 2.3 Revocation of Proxies; Cooperation.

(a) Each Stockholder hereby severally, but not jointly, and with respect only to himself or herself and not any other Stockholder, represents and warrants to Buyer that any proxies heretofore given in respect of the Subject Securities Beneficially Owned by such Stockholder are not irrevocable, and such Stockholder hereby revokes any and all proxies (other than the Proxies) with respect to such Subject Securities. Stockholder shall not grant any proxies or powers of attorney with respect to the matters set forth in Section 2.2 hereof (other than to Buyer), deposit any of the Subject Securities Beneficially Owned by him or her, or enter into a voting agreement (other than this Agreement) with respect to any of such Subject Securities.

(b) Each Stockholder shall use all reasonable efforts to (i) cooperate with the Company, Acquisition Sub and Buyer in connection with, and in furtherance of, the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement (including, without limitation, the

Merger and the Spin-Off), (ii) promptly take such actions as are reasonably necessary or appropriate to consummate such transactions, and (iii) provide any information reasonably requested by the Company or Buyer for any regulatory application or filing made or approval sought in respect of such transactions.

Section 2.4 No Limitation. Buyer and each Stockholder hereby agree that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, (i) the provisions of this Agreement apply solely to such Stockholder when acting in his or her capacity as a holder of securities of the Company and not when acting or purporting to act as a director or officer of the Company (it being understood that the Company has separate and independent obligations to Buyer under the Merger Agreement); and (ii) none of the provisions of this Agreement shall be construed to prohibit, limit or restrict any Stockholder from exercising his or her fiduciary duties to the Company by voting or taking any other action whatsoever in the capacity of a director or officer of the Company.

Section 2.5 No Transfer of Subject Securities; Publicity.

(a) During the term of this Agreement, (i) no Stockholder shall take any action to subject any of the Subject Securities that are Beneficially Owned by him or her to any Lien, (ii) no Stockholder shall (w) Transfer or agree to Transfer, (x) solicit or encourage (including by way of providing material nonpublic information) any proposal, (y) participate or engage in discussions or negotiations, or (z) enter into any agreement or arrangement in principal, in each case with respect to the Transfer of any of the Subject Securities that are Beneficially Owned by him or her or grant any proxy or power-of-attorney with respect to any such Subject Securities, (iii) each Stockholder shall vote all of such Stockholder’s Subject Securities against any Alternative Transaction and (iv) each Stockholder shall use all reasonable efforts to prevent creditors in respect of any pledge of the Subject Securities that are Beneficially Owned by him or her from exercising their rights under such pledge. This Section 2.5 shall not prohibit a Transfer of Subject Securities by a Stockholder to any member of such Stockholder’s immediate family, or to a trust for the benefit of such Stockholder or any member of such Stockholder’s immediate family; provided, however, that a Transfer referred to in this sentence shall be permitted only if, as a condition precedent to such Transfer, the transferee in such Transfer agrees in a writing that is reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to Buyer to be bound by all of the terms of this Agreement as though such transferee were a Stockholder hereunder.

(b) Except to the extent required by applicable law, each Stockholder shall not, and each Stockholder shall cause his or her Affiliates and their respective directors (or persons in similar positions), officers, employees, agents or representatives (as applicable) not to, make any press release or public announcement with respect to the business or affairs of the Company or Buyer, including this Agreement and the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, without the prior written consent of Buyer and the Company in each instance, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned.

- 7 -

Section 4.5 Severability.

Section 4.7 Enforcement of Agreement. Each Stockholder hereby acknowledges and agrees that Buyer and/or its Affiliates (including, without limitation, Acquisition Sub) could be irreparably damaged if any of the provisions of this Agreement are not performed in accordance with their specific terms and that any breach of this Agreement by such Stockholder could not be adequately compensated by monetary damages. Accordingly, such Stockholder hereby (a) waives, in any action for specific performance, the defense of adequacy of a remedy at law and (b) agrees that, in addition to any other right or remedy to which Buyer may be entitled, at law or in equity, Buyer shall be entitled to enforce any provision of this Agreement by a decree of specific performance and to temporary, preliminary and permanent injunctive relief to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of any of the provisions of this Agreement, without posting any bond or other undertaking.

Section 4.8 Waiver. The rights and remedies of the parties to this agreement are cumulative and not alternative. Neither any failure nor any delay by a party in exercising any right, power or privilege under this Agreement, any Proxy or any of the documents referred to in this Agreement will operate as a waiver of such right, power or privilege, and no single or partial exercise of any such right, power or privilege will preclude any other or further exercise of such right, power or privilege or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. To the maximum extent permitted by law, (a) no claim or right arising out of this Agreement, any Proxy or any of the documents referred to in this Agreement can be discharged by one party, in whole or in part, by a waiver or renunciation of the claim or

- 8 -

right unless in a written document signed by each other party hereto against whom such waiver or renunciation is charged, (b) no waiver that may be given by a party hereto will be applicable except in the specific instance for which it is given, and (c) no notice to or demand on one party hereto will be deemed to be a waiver of any obligation of that party or of the right of the party giving such notice or demand to take further action without notice or demand as provided in this Agreement, any applicable Proxy or the documents referred to in this Agreement.

Section 4.9 Governing Law. This Agreement and all acts and transaction pursuant hereto, and the rights of obligations of the parties hereto and any dispute arising out of, relating to or in connection with this Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the Laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to any provisions that might require the application of the Law of a different jurisdiction.

Section 4.10 Consent to Jurisdiction.

(a) Each of the parties hereto agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that the parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement exclusively in a state or federal court located in Delaware. In addition, each of Buyer, Acquisition Sub and the Stockholders hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the United States District Court for the District of Delaware (or, if such court does not have jurisdiction over the subject matter of such proceeding or if such jurisdiction is not available, in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware, County of New Castle), not to bring any claim regarding such a dispute in any other court, and to waive unconditionally any objection to the laying of venue in such forum, including any claim of inconvenient forum. Each of the parties further agree that service of any process, summons, notice or document by U.S. registered mail to the address set forth above or on Schedule I hereto, as applicable, shall be effective service of process for any action, suit or proceeding brought against such party in any such court. The parties agree that a final judgment in any such dispute shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suits on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law.

(b) Each of Buyer, Acquisition Sub and the Stockholders irrevocably consents to the service of the summons and complaint and any other process in any other action or proceeding relating to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, on behalf of itself or its property, by personal delivery of copies of such process to such party.

EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, ALL RIGHTS TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.
