NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises, and of the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements contained herein, the parties hereto agree as follows:

ARTICLE I

THE OFFER AND THE MERGER

Section 1.1 The Offer.

(a) On the terms and subject to the provisions of this Agreement, as promptly as practicable but in no event later than June 27, 2011, Merger Sub shall, and Parent shall cause Merger Sub to, commence the Offer within the meaning of Rule 14d-2 under the Exchange Act. The obligations of Merger Sub to, and of Parent to cause Merger Sub to, accept for payment, and pay for, any Shares tendered pursuant to the Offer shall be subject only to the conditions set forth in Exhibit A.

(i) The initial expiration date of the Offer shall be midnight, New York, New York time on the twentieth (20th) Business Day following the commencement (within the meaning of Rule 14d-2 under the Exchange Act) of the Offer (determined pursuant to Rule 14d-1(g)(3) under the Exchange Act) (such time, the “Initial Expiration Date,” and such time, or subsequent time to which the expiration of the Offer is extended in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the “Expiration Date”). Merger Sub reserves the right in its sole discretion to waive, in whole or part, any condition to the Offer or modify the terms of the Offer, except that, without the written consent of the Company, Merger Sub shall not (A) reduce the number of Shares subject to the Offer or sought to be purchased in the Offer, (B) reduce the Offer Price (except pursuant to Section 1.1(a)(v)), (C) amend or waive the Minimum Tender Condition, (D) add to or impose conditions to the Offer other than the conditions set forth in Exhibit A attached hereto or modify any condition set forth in Exhibit A attached hereto if such modification is adverse in any respect to the holders of the Shares, (E) extend the expiration date of the Offer (except in accordance with Section 1.1(a)(ii) below), (F) change the form of consideration payable in the Offer or (G) otherwise amend or modify the Offer in any manner adverse to the holders of the Shares.

(ii) Notwithstanding Section 1.1(a)(i), but subject to the terms and conditions contained herein, (A) Merger Sub shall extend the Offer if, at the then scheduled expiration date of the Offer, any of the conditions to Merger Sub’s obligation to purchase Shares set forth in Exhibit A are not satisfied or waived and it is reasonably expected that such condition or conditions may be satisfied prior to the Outside Date (after taking into account any extension required by Section 10.7(v)), until such time as all of such conditions are satisfied or waived, in increments of not more than ten (10) Business Days each with the exact length of each such extension period determined by Parent or Merger Sub and (B) Merger Sub shall (and Parent shall cause Merger Sub to) extend the Offer for any period required by any rule, regulation, interpretation or position of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) or the staff thereof; provided that in no case shall Merger Sub be obligated to, or Parent be obligated to cause Merger Sub to, extend the Offer beyond the Outside Date. In addition, Merger Sub may make available a “subsequent offering period”, in accordance with Rule 14d-11 under the Exchange Act, of not less than five (5) Business Days and not more than twenty (20) Business

Days; provided, that Merger Sub shall immediately accept and promptly pay for all Shares tendered during the initial offering period and accept and promptly pay for all Shares tendered during any such “subsequent offering period”, in each case in accordance with Rule 14d-11 under the Exchange Act and other applicable securities Laws.

(iii) On the terms and subject to the conditions of the Offer and this Agreement, Merger Sub shall, and Parent shall cause Merger Sub to, accept for payment and pay for (subject to any applicable Tax withholding pursuant to Section 4.2(g)) all Shares validly tendered and not validly withdrawn pursuant to the Offer as soon as practicable after the Expiration Date and in any event in compliance with Rule 14e-1(c) under the Exchange Act.

(iv) Merger Sub shall not terminate the Offer prior to the Expiration Date without the prior written consent of the Company, except if this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Article IX. If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Article IX, Merger Sub shall, and Parent shall cause Merger Sub to, promptly (and in any event within twenty-four (24) hours of such termination) terminate the Offer and in any event shall not acquire any Shares pursuant thereto. If the Offer is terminated by Merger Sub, or this Agreement is terminated prior to the acquisition of Shares in the Offer, Merger Sub shall, and Parent shall cause Merger Sub to, promptly return, and shall cause any depositary acting on behalf of Merger Sub to return, in accordance with applicable Law, all tendered Shares that have not been withdrawn to the registered holders thereof.

(v) Subject to the Company’s obligations pursuant to Section 7.1, if the Company changes the number of Shares or securities convertible or exchangeable into or exercisable for Shares issued and outstanding prior to the Effective Time as a result of a reclassification, stock split (including a reverse stock split), stock dividend or stock distribution, recapitalization, merger, issuer tender or exchange offer, or other similar transaction or the Company declares or makes any cash dividend or other cash or asset distribution with respect to the Shares, the Offer Price shall be equitably adjusted to reflect such change and as so adjusted shall, from and after the date of such event, be the Offer Price.

(b) On the date of commencement of the Offer, Parent and Merger Sub shall file with the SEC a Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO with respect to the Offer, which shall contain an offer to purchase and a related letter of transmittal and summary advertisement and such other ancillary documents pursuant to which the Offer will be made (such Schedule TO and the documents included therein pursuant to which the Offer will be made, together with any supplements or amendments thereto and such other ancillary documents, the “Offer Documents”). The Offer Documents will contain all information that is required to be included therein in accordance with the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules and regulations thereunder (the “Exchange Act”), and any other applicable Laws. The Company shall promptly furnish to Parent and Merger Sub all information concerning the Company that is required or reasonably requested by Parent or Merger Sub for inclusion in the Offer Documents. Parent and Merger Sub shall cause the Offer Documents to comply as to form in all material respects with the requirements of all applicable Laws, and Parent and Merger Sub will take all steps necessary to cause the Offer Documents to be disseminated to the Company Shareholders in accordance with this Agreement and with all applicable Laws. Each of Parent, Merger Sub and the Company shall promptly correct any information provided by it for use or incorporation

by reference in the Offer Documents if and to the extent that such information shall have become false or misleading in any material respect, and each of Parent and Merger Sub shall take all steps necessary to amend or supplement the Offer Documents and to cause the Offer Documents as so amended or supplemented to be filed with the SEC and to be disseminated to the Company Shareholders, in each case as and to the extent required by all applicable Laws. The Company and its counsel shall be given the opportunity to review and comment on the Offer Documents and any supplements or amendments thereto prior to the filing thereof with the SEC, and Parent and Merger Sub shall give due consideration to any such comments proposed by the Company or its counsel. In the event that Parent or Merger Sub receives any comments from the SEC or its staff with respect to the Offer Documents, each shall use (i) its reasonable best efforts to respond promptly to such comments and (ii) its good faith, reasonable efforts to resolve the issues raised therein. Parent and Merger Sub shall (w) provide the Company and its counsel in writing with any written comments (or a summary of any material oral comments) Parent, Merger Sub or their counsel may receive from the SEC or its staff with respect to the Offer Documents promptly, but in no event later than one (1) Business Day, after the receipt of such comments, (x) provide the Company and its counsel with copies of all material correspondence between Parent, Merger Sub or their counsel, on the one hand, and the SEC (or the staff of the SEC), on the other hand, (y) give the Company and its counsel a reasonable opportunity to participate in the response of Parent and Merger Sub to those comments and to provide comments on any response, and (z) give due consideration to any such comments.

(c) Parent shall provide or cause to be provided to Merger Sub on a timely basis the funds necessary to purchase and pay for any and all Shares that Merger Sub becomes obligated to accept for payment and purchase pursuant to the Offer and shall cause Merger Sub to fulfill all of Merger Sub’s covenants, agreements and obligations under the Offer as provided in this Agreement.

Section 1.2 Company Actions.

(a) The Company hereby consents to, and adopts and approves, the Offer, and on the commencement of the Offer, the Company shall file with the SEC a Tender Offer Solicitation/Recommendation Statement on Schedule 14D-9 with respect to the Offer (such Schedule 14D-9, together with any supplements or amendments thereto, the “Schedule 14D-9”) and shall promptly mail the Schedule 14D-9 to the Company Shareholders. Parent and Merger Sub shall as promptly as reasonably practicable furnish to the Company all information concerning Parent and Merger Sub that is required or reasonably requested by the Company for inclusion in the Schedule 14D-9. Each of the Company, Parent and Merger Sub shall promptly correct any information provided by it for use or incorporation by reference in the Schedule 14D-9 if and to the extent that such information shall have become false or misleading in any material respect, and, subject to the provisions of this Agreement, the Company shall take all steps necessary to amend or supplement the Schedule 14D-9 and to cause the Schedule 14D-9 as so amended or supplemented to be filed with the SEC and disseminated to the Company Shareholders, in each case as and to the extent required by all applicable Laws. Parent and Merger Sub and their counsel shall be given the opportunity to review and comment on the Schedule 14D-9 and any supplements or amendments thereto prior to the filing thereof with the SEC, and the Company shall give due consideration to any such comments proposed by Parent and Merger Sub or its counsel. In the event that Company receives any comments from the SEC

or its staff with respect to Schedule 14D-9, it shall use (i) its reasonable best efforts to respond promptly to such comments and (ii) its good faith, reasonable efforts to resolve the issues raised therein. The Company shall (w) provide Parent and Merger Sub and their counsel in writing with any written comments (or a summary of any material oral comments) the Company or its counsel may receive from the SEC or its staff with respect to the Schedule 14D-9 promptly, but in no event later than one (1) Business Day, after the receipt of such comments, (x) provide Parent, Merger Sub and their counsel with copies of all material correspondence between the Company and its counsel, on the one hand, and the SEC (or the staff of the SEC), on the other hand, (y) give Parent, Merger Sub and their counsel a reasonable opportunity to participate in the response of the Company to those comments and to provide comments on any response, and (z) give due consideration to any such comments.

(b) In connection with the Offer, the Company shall cause its transfer agent to furnish Merger Sub promptly (and, in any case, prior to the commencement of the Offer) with mailing labels containing the names and addresses of the record holders of the Shares as of the latest practicable date, together with copies of all lists of shareholders, security position listings and computer files and all other information in the Company’s possession or control regarding the record or beneficial owners of the Shares (including, the names and addresses of the participants of the ESPP and the number of Shares credited to each such participant under the ESPP), and shall furnish to Merger Sub such information and assistance (including updated lists of shareholders, security position listings, electronic versions of such information and computer files) as Parent may reasonably request in communicating the Offer to the Company Shareholders and beneficial holders of the Shares. Subject to the requirements of applicable Law, and except for such steps as are necessary to disseminate the Offer Documents and any other documents necessary to consummate the Offer, Parent and Merger Sub shall, and shall cause their agents to, treat the information contained in any such labels, listings and files in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Confidentiality Agreement, shall use such information only in connection with the Offer and the Merger and, if this Agreement shall be terminated, shall, upon request, promptly deliver to the Company all copies of such information then in their possession or under their control and shall instruct their representatives and agents to do the same.

(c) Company shall not, and shall cause its Subsidiaries not to, tender any Shares held by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (other than in a fiduciary capacity) into the Offer.

(d) The Company has been informed that all directors of the Company intend to tender all of their respective Shares, if any, in the Offer and that the Offer Documents may so state. The Company shall, and shall use reasonable efforts to cause any third parties to, cooperate with Parent and Merger Sub to disseminate the Offer Documents to holders of Shares held in or subject to any Stock Plan, and to permit such holders of Shares to tender their Shares in the Offer, including causing the custodian of the ESPP to promptly disseminate the Offer Documents to the participants of the ESPP.

Section 1.3 Directors.

(a) Immediately after the acceptance for payment of Shares tendered pursuant to the Offer (without giving effect to any subsequent offering period) (the time of such acceptance being the “Acceptance Time”) and, from time to time thereafter, as Shares are accepted for payment by Merger Sub, subject to Parent or Merger Sub depositing the payment for all accepted Shares with the depositary agent for the Offer and subject to Section 1.3(b), Parent shall have the right to designate persons (the “Merger Sub Designees”) to become members of the Company Board of Directors such that the total number of Merger Sub Designees, rounded up to the nearest whole number, equals the product of the total number of members of the Company Board of Directors (after giving effect to any increase in the number of the directors elected or appointed pursuant to this sentence) multiplied by the percentage that the number of Shares beneficially owned by Parent or Merger Sub or any of their Subsidiaries at such time (including Shares so accepted for payment and the Top-Up Shares) bears to the total number of Shares then outstanding, but in no event less than a majority of the number of directors. In furtherance thereof, the Company shall, upon the request of, and as specified by, Merger Sub, promptly either increase the size of the Company Board of Directors or secure the resignations of such number of the Company’s incumbent directors, or both, as is necessary to enable the Merger Sub Designees to be so elected or appointed to the Company Board of Directors and the Company shall cause the Merger Sub Designees to be so elected or appointed. At such time, if requested by Merger Sub, the Company shall also take all action necessary to cause the Merger Sub Designees to constitute at least the same percentage (rounded up to the next whole number) as is on the Company Board of Directors of each committee of the Company Board of Directors, to the extent permitted by applicable Law and the rules of any stock exchange or trading market on which the Shares are listed and traded. The provisions of this Section 1.3 are in addition to and shall not limit any rights which Merger Sub, Parent or any of their Affiliates may have as a holder or beneficial owner of Shares as a matter of applicable Law with respect to the election of directors or otherwise.

(b) The Company’s obligations pursuant to Section 1.3(a) shall be subject to Section 14(f) of the Exchange Act. The Company shall take all actions necessary to appoint the Merger Sub Designees, including mailing to the Company Shareholders the information required by Section 14(f) of the Exchange Act and Rule 14f-1 promulgated thereunder as part of the Schedule 14D-9; provided, however, that Parent and Merger Sub shall supply to the Company in writing prior to the filing with the SEC of the Schedule 14D-9, and be solely responsible for, any information with respect to Parent and Merger Sub and Merger Sub Designees to the extent required by such Section 14(f) and Rule 14f-1.

(c) Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 1.3, the parties hereto shall use their respective reasonable best efforts to ensure that at least three (3) of the members of the Company Board of Directors shall, at all times following the Acceptance Time and prior to the Effective Time, be directors of the Company who (i) were directors of the Company on the date hereof, (ii) are not officers of the Company and (iii) are independent directors for purposes of continuing listing requirements of the Nasdaq Global Select Market (“Nasdaq”) (such directors, the “Continuing Directors”); provided, however, that, if at any time there shall be in office less than three (3) Continuing Directors for any reason, the Company Board of Directors shall use reasonable best efforts to cause a person or persons meeting the foregoing criteria and designated by the remaining Continuing Directors to be appointed or elected to the Company Board of Directors and such person or persons shall be deemed to be Continuing Directors for all purposes

of this Agreement, or if no Continuing Directors then shall remain, the other directors of the Company then in office shall use reasonable best efforts to appoint or elect to the Company Board of Directors three (3) persons meeting the foregoing criteria, which persons shall not be directors, officers, employees or Affiliates of Parent or Merger Sub and such persons shall be deemed to be Continuing Directors for all purposes of this Agreement. From and after the Acceptance Time and prior to the Effective Time, subject to the terms hereof, any amendment or modification of this Agreement, any termination of this Agreement by the Company, any extension of time for performance of any of the obligations of Parent or Merger Sub hereunder, any waiver of any condition to the Company’s obligations hereunder or any of the Company’s rights hereunder, any amendment to the articles of incorporation or bylaws of the Company in any manner adverse to the Company Shareholders, and any other action of the Company hereunder which adversely affects or could adversely affect the Company Shareholders (other than Parent or Merger Sub) may be effected only if (in addition to the approval of the Company Board of Directors as a whole) such action is approved by a majority of the Continuing Directors then in office. Following the Acceptance Time and prior to the Effective Time, neither Parent nor Merger Sub shall take any action to remove any Continuing Director except for negligence, fraud, willful misconduct or cause.

(d) After the Acceptance Time, the Company shall take all action necessary to elect to be treated as a “controlled company” as defined by NASDAQ Marketplace Rule 5615(c) and make all necessary filings and disclosures associated with such status.

Section 1.4 Top-Up Option.

(a) The Company hereby grants to Merger Sub an irrevocable option (the “Top-Up Option”), exercisable only upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein, to purchase at the Offer Price an aggregate number of Shares (the “Top-Up Shares”) equal to the lowest number of Shares that, when added to the number of Shares owned by Parent, Merger Sub and their Subsidiaries at the time of such exercise, shall constitute one (1) Share more than 90.00% of the outstanding Shares on a fully diluted basis (after taking into account the issuance of the Top-Up Shares); provided, however, that the Top-Up Option shall not be exercisable to the extent (i) the number of Shares issuable upon exercise of the Top-Up Option would exceed the number of authorized but unissued Shares as of immediately prior to the issuance of the Top-Up Shares (treating the Shares held in the treasury of the Company as unissued and giving effect to Shares reserved for issuance under all outstanding stock options, restricted stock and any other rights to acquire the Shares as if such Shares were outstanding) or (ii) any other provision of applicable Law or judgment, injunction order or decree shall prohibit the exercise of the Top-Up Option or delivery of the Top-Up Shares (excluding any listing requirement of the Nasdaq); provided, further, that the Top-Up Option shall terminate upon the termination of this Agreement in accordance with its terms. The Top-Up Option shall not be exercisable until such time as Merger Sub shall have deposited the payment for all accepted Shares with the depositary agent for the Offer and, if a “subsequent offering period” is provided, for all Shares tendered in the “subsequent offering period, and in no event shall the Top-Up Option be exercisable (x) if the Minimum Tender Condition shall have been waived, (y) more than once or (z) unless, immediately after such exercise and the issuance of Shares pursuant thereto, and accounting for the limitations set forth herein, Parent and Merger Sub would hold one (1) Share more than 90.00% of the outstanding Shares. Upon Parent’s request, the Company shall use its

commercially reasonable efforts to cause its transfer agent to notify Parent in writing of the number of Shares issued and outstanding as of immediately prior to the exercise of the Top-Up Option. The Company has reserved, and shall continue to reserve and maintain free from preemptive rights, out of its authorized but unissued shares of common stock of the Company, par value $0.10 per share, the (“Common Stock”) all authorized and unissued shares of Common Stock as of the date hereof for the exercise of the Top-Up Option, except for Shares issuable upon the exercise of Company Options outstanding under the Stock Plans as of the date hereof.

(b) The parties shall cooperate to ensure that the issuance of the Top-Up Shares is accomplished consistent with all applicable legal requirements of all Governmental Entities, including compliance with an applicable exemption from registration of the Top-Up Shares under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder (the “Securities Act”).

(c) Subject to the limitations on exercise of the Top-Up Option set forth in Section 1.4(a), Merger Sub shall, and Parent shall cause Merger Sub to, exercise, and take all action necessary action to exercise, the Top-Up Option, upon the written request of the Company. To exercise the Top-Up Option, Merger Sub shall send to the Company a written notice (a “Top-Up Exercise Notice”) specifying (i) the number of Shares that are owned by Parent, Merger Sub and their Subsidiaries immediately preceding the purchase of the Top-Up Shares and (ii) the place, time and date (which date shall be no later than the third (3rd) Business Day following the date of the Top-Up Exercise Notice) for the closing of the purchase and sale of the Top-Up Shares (the “Top-Up Closing”). The Top-Up Notice shall also include an undertaking signed by Parent and Merger Sub that, as promptly as practicable following such exercise of the Top-Up Option, Merger Sub intends to (and Merger Sub shall, and Parent shall cause Merger Sub to, as promptly as practicable after such exercise) consummate the Merger in accordance with the GBCC as contemplated by Section 7.3(e). The Company shall, promptly after receipt of the Top-Up Exercise Notice (and in any event within 24 hours), deliver a written notice to Merger Sub confirming the number of Top-Up Shares and the aggregate purchase price therefor (the “Top-Up Notice Receipt”). Merger Sub and the Company shall use their reasonable best efforts to cause the Top-Up Closing to occur on the same day the Top-Up Exercise Notice is received by the Company, and if not so consummated on such day, as promptly thereafter as possible. At the Top-Up Closing, Merger Sub shall pay the Company, in the manner set forth in Section 1.4(d) hereof, the aggregate price required to be paid for the Top-Up Shares, in cash and/or aggregate principal amount equal to that specified in the Top-Up Notice Receipt, and the Company shall cause to be issued and delivered to Merger Sub a certificate or certificates representing the Top-Up Shares or, at Merger Sub’s request or otherwise if the Company does not then have certificated Shares, the applicable number of uncertificated Shares represented by book entry (“Book-Entry Shares”). Such certificates or Book-Entry Shares may include any legends that are required by applicable Law.

(d) Merger Sub may pay the Company the aggregate price required to be paid for the Top-Up Shares either (i) entirely in cash or (ii) at Merger Sub’s election, by (x) paying in cash an amount equal to not less than the aggregate par value of the Top-Up Shares and (y) executing and delivering to the Company a promissory note having a principal amount equal to the balance of the aggregate purchase price pursuant to the Top-Up Option less the amount paid in cash pursuant to the preceding clause (x) (a “Promissory Note”). Any such Promissory Note

shall be full recourse against Parent and Merger Sub and (i) shall bear interest at the rate of two percent (2%) per annum, (ii) shall mature on the first (1st) anniversary of the date of execution and delivery of such Promissory Note and (iii) may be prepaid, in whole or in part, without premium or penalty.

(e) Parent and Merger Sub acknowledge that the Shares that Merger Sub may acquire upon exercise of the Top-Up Option shall not be registered under the Securities Act and shall be issued in reliance upon an exemption for transactions not involving a public offering. Parent and Merger Sub represent and warrant to the Company that Merger Sub is, or shall be upon any purchase of Top-Up Shares, an “accredited investor,” as defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D under the Securities Act. Merger Sub agrees that the Top-Up Option, and the Top-Up Shares to be acquired upon exercise of the Top-Up Option, if any, are being and shall be acquired by Merger Sub for the purpose of investment and not with a view to, or for resale in connection with, any distribution thereof (within the meaning of the Securities Act). The parties agree and acknowledge that in any appraisal proceeding with respect to the Dissenting Shares, and to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, the Surviving Corporation shall not assert that the Top-Up Option, the issuance of the Top-Up Shares or the payment by Merger Sub to the Company of any consideration for the Top-Up Shares should be considered by the court in connection with the determination in accordance with Article 13 of the GBCC of the fair value of the Dissenting Shares.

(f) The number of Shares issuable pursuant to the Top-Up Option shall be adjusted to the extent appropriate so as to restore Merger Sub to its rights hereunder with respect to the Top-Up Option in the event of any reclassification, stock split (including a reverse stock split), stock dividend or stock distribution, recapitalization, merger, issuer tender or exchange offer, or other similar transaction with respect to Shares occurring or having a record date on or after the date of this Agreement and prior to the date of exercise of the Top-Up Option.

Section 1.5 The Merger. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, and in accordance with the GBCC, at the Effective Time, Merger Sub shall be merged with and into the Company, and the separate corporate existence of Merger Sub shall thereupon cease. The Company shall be the surviving corporation in the Merger (sometimes hereinafter referred to as the “Surviving Corporation”), and the separate corporate existence of the Company, with all its rights, privileges, immunities, powers and franchises, shall continue unaffected by the Merger, except as set forth in Article II. The Merger shall have the effects specified in the GBCC.

Section 1.6 Closing. Unless otherwise mutually agreed in writing between the Company and Parent, the closing for the Merger (the “Closing”) shall take place at the offices of King & Spalding LLP, 0000 Xxxxxxxxx Xxxxxx X.X., Xxxxxxx, Xxxxxxx 00000, at 10:00 A.M. local time on a date to be specified by the parties, which shall be not later than the second (2nd) Business Day (the “Closing Date”) following the day on which the last to be satisfied or waived of the conditions set forth in Article VIII (other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing, but subject to the fulfillment or waiver of those conditions) shall be satisfied or waived in accordance with this Agreement.

Section 1.7 Effective Time. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, as soon as practicable following the Closing, the parties shall cause the Merger to be consummated by filing articles of merger, or, at Parent’s election, a certificate of merger (the “Articles of Merger”) with the Secretary of State of the State of Georgia and by making all other filings required under the GBCC, including publication of a notice of merger pursuant to Section 14-2-1105.1 of the GBCC on the same day as the filing of the Articles of Merger. The Merger shall become effective at such time as the Articles of Merger are duly filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Georgia, or at such subsequent date or time as may be agreed to by the parties in writing and specified in the Articles of Merger (the “Effective Time”).

The parties hereto shall take all actions necessary so that, subject to Section 7.10, the bylaws of the Surviving Corporation shall be amended and restated to be identical to the bylaws of Merger Sub in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time except that the name of the Surviving Corporation shall continue to be “EMS Technologies, Inc.” (as so amended and restated, the “Bylaws”), until thereafter amended as provided therein or by applicable Law.

ARTICLE IV

EFFECT OF THE MERGER ON CAPITAL STOCK; EXCHANGE OF CERTIFICATES

Section 4.1 Effect on Capital Stock. At the Effective Time, as a result of the Merger and without any action on the part of the holder of any capital stock of the Company:

(a) Each Share issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, other than (i) Shares owned by Parent, Merger Sub or any other direct or indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent, and Shares owned by the Company or any direct or indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, and in each case not held on behalf of third parties, and (ii) Shares (the “Dissenting Shares”) that are owned by Company Shareholders (“Dissenting Shareholders”) who have perfected and not withdrawn a demand for appraisal rights pursuant to Article 13 of the GBCC with respect to such Shares (each, an “Excluded Share” and collectively, “Excluded Shares”) shall be converted into the right to receive an amount in cash equal to the Offer Price (the “Per Share Merger Consideration”). At the Effective Time, all of the Shares (other than the Excluded Shares) shall cease to be outstanding, shall be cancelled, shall cease to exist, and shall cease to have any rights other than, and shall thereafter represent only, the right to receive the Per Share Merger Consideration, without interest, upon the surrender of such Shares in accordance with Section 4.2.

(b) Each Excluded Share referred to in Section 4.1(a)(i) or 4.1(a)(ii) shall, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the holder thereof, cease to be outstanding, be cancelled without payment of any consideration therefor and cease to exist; provided, however, that the Dissenting Shares shall thereafter represent the right to receive the payment to which reference is made in Section 4.2(f).

(c) At the Effective Time, each share of common stock, par value $.01 per share, of Merger Sub issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into one share of common stock, par value $.01 per share, of the Surviving Corporation.

Section 4.2 Surrender and Payment.

(a) Prior to the Effective Time, Parent shall appoint XX Xxxxxx, N.A., as paying agent or such other paying agent with the Company’s prior approval, which shall not be unreasonably withheld (the “Paying Agent”) for the purpose of exchanging for the Per Share Merger Consideration (i) certificates representing the Shares (the “Certificates”) or (ii) uncertificated Shares (the “Uncertificated Shares”). Parent shall make available or cause to be made available to the Paying Agent amounts sufficient in the aggregate to provide all funds necessary for the Paying Agent to make payments of the Per Share Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 4.1(a) (such cash being hereinafter referred to as the “Exchange Fund”). If a Dissenting Shareholder effectively withdraws its demand for, or loses its, appraisal rights pursuant to Article 13 of the GBCC with respect to any Dissenting Shares, Parent shall make available or cause to be made available to the Paying Agent additional funds in an amount equal to the product of (i) the number of Dissenting Shares for which the Dissenting Shareholder has

withdrawn its demand for, or lost its, appraisal rights pursuant to Article 13 of the GBCC and (ii) the Per Share Merger Consideration.

(b) Promptly after the Effective Time (and in any event within five (5) Business Days thereafter), the Surviving Corporation shall cause the Paying Agent to mail to each holder of record of Shares (other than holders of Excluded Shares to the extent such holders do not also hold Shares that are not Excluded Shares) (i) a letter of transmittal in customary form approved by counsel to the Company prior to the Acceptance Time specifying that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title shall pass, only upon delivery of the Certificates (or affidavits of loss in lieu thereof as provided in Section 4.2(e)) or transfer of the Uncertificated Shares to the Paying Agent, such letter of transmittal to be in such form and have such other provisions as Parent and the Company may reasonably agree, and (ii) instructions for use in effecting the surrender of the Certificates (or affidavits of loss in lieu thereof as provided in Section 4.2(e)) or the Uncertificated Shares in exchange for the Per Share Merger Consideration. Upon (A) surrender of a Certificate (or affidavit of loss in lieu thereof as provided in Section 4.2(e)) to the Paying Agent in accordance with the terms of such letter of transmittal, duly executed, or (B) receipt of an “agent’s message” by the Paying Agent (or such other evidence, if any, of transfer as the Paying Agent may reasonably request) in the case of a book-entry transfer of Uncertificated Shares, the holder of such Certificate or Uncertificated Shares shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor a cash amount in immediately available funds (after giving effect to any required Tax withholdings as provided in Section 4.2(g)) equal to (x) the number of Shares represented by such Certificate (or affidavit of loss in lieu thereof as provided in Section 4.2(e)) or Uncertificated Shares multiplied by (y) the Per Share Merger Consideration, and the Certificate so surrendered and the Uncertificated Shares so transferred shall forthwith be cancelled. No interest will be paid or accrued on any amount payable upon due surrender of the Certificates or Uncertificated Shares. In the event of a transfer of ownership of Shares that is not registered in the transfer records of the Company, a check for any cash to be exchanged upon due surrender of the Certificate may be issued to such transferee if the Certificate formerly representing such Shares is presented to the Paying Agent, accompanied by all documents required to evidence and effect such transfer and to evidence that any applicable stock transfer Taxes have been paid or are not applicable.

(c) From and after the Effective Time, there shall be no transfers on the stock transfer books of the Company of the Shares that were outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time. If, after the Effective Time, any Certificate is presented to the Surviving Corporation, Parent or the Paying Agent for transfer, it shall be cancelled and exchanged for the cash amount in immediately available funds to which the holder thereof is entitled pursuant to this Article IV.

(d) Any portion of the Exchange Fund (including the proceeds of any investments thereof) that remains unclaimed by the Company Shareholders for one year after the Effective Time shall be delivered to the Surviving Corporation. Any holder of Shares (other than Excluded Shares) who has not theretofore complied with this Article IV shall thereafter look only to the Surviving Corporation for payment of the Per Share Merger Consideration (after giving effect to any required Tax withholdings as provided in Section 4.2(g)) upon due surrender of its Certificates (or affidavits of loss in lieu thereof) or due transfer of its Uncertificated Shares, without any interest thereon. Notwithstanding the foregoing, none of the Surviving Corporation,

Parent, the Paying Agent or any other Person shall be liable to any former holder of Shares for any amount properly delivered to a public official pursuant to applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Laws.

(e) If any Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the Person claiming such Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed and, if required by Parent, the posting by such Person of a bond in customary amount and upon such customary and reasonable terms as may be required by Parent as indemnity against any claim that may be made against it or the Surviving Corporation with respect to such Certificate, the Paying Agent will issue a check in the amount (after giving effect to any required Tax withholdings as provided in Section 4.2(g)) equal to the number of Shares represented by such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate multiplied by the Per Share Merger Consideration.

(f) No Person who has perfected a demand for dissenters’ rights pursuant to Article 13 of the GBCC with respect to any Dissenting Shares shall be entitled to receive the Per Share Merger Consideration with respect to such Dissenting Shares owned by such Person unless and until such Person shall have effectively withdrawn or lost such Person’s right to payment of the “fair value” for such shares under the GBCC with respect to such Dissenting Shares. If any such Dissenting Shareholder shall have effectively withdrawn or lost such right at or following the Effective Time, each Dissenting Share held by such Dissenting Shareholder shall thereupon be deemed to have been converted into and to have become, as of the Effective Time, the right to receive, without any interest thereon, the Per Share Merger Consideration. Unless and until a Dissenting Shareholder shall have effectively withdrawn or lost such Dissenting Shareholder’s right to appraisal under the GBCC with respect to Dissenting Shares, each Dissenting Shareholder shall be entitled to receive only the payment provided by Article 13 of the GBCC with respect to such Dissenting Shares. The Company shall (i) promptly notify Parent of any written demands for appraisal, attempted withdrawals of such demands, and any other instruments received by the Company relating to shareholders’ rights of appraisal and with such notice to Parent provide to Parent a copy of all such demands, attempted withdrawals and other instruments received by the Company and (ii) give Parent the opportunity to direct and control all negotiations and proceedings with respect to demand for appraisal under the GBCC. The Company shall not, except with the prior written consent of Parent, make any payment with respect to any demands for appraisal, offer to settle or settle any such demands or approve any withdrawal of any such demands. Each holder of Dissenting Shares who becomes entitled under Article 13 of the GBCC to receive payment of the “fair value” for such holder’s shares shall receive such payment therefor from the Surviving Corporation after giving effect to any required withholdings as provided in Section 4.2(g) (but only after the amount thereof shall have been finally determined pursuant to the GBCC).

(g) Each of Parent, the Surviving Corporation and the Paying Agent shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise payable to a Person pursuant to this Agreement or the Offer any amounts that are required to be deducted and withheld with respect to the making of such payment under applicable Law. To the extent that amounts are so withheld by Parent, the Surviving Corporation or the Paying Agent, as the case may be, such withheld amounts (i) shall be remitted to the applicable Governmental Entity, and (ii) shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of which the applicable deduction and withholding was made.

Section 4.3 Treatment of Options and Restricted Stock; Stock Plans.

(a) Prior to the Acceptance Time, the Company shall declare that each option holder’s right to exercise each option to purchase Shares (a “Company Option”) granted under the Stock Plans that is outstanding at such time shall, in accordance with and subject to the terms of such Company Options, upon the commencement of the Offer (provided that the Acceptance Time occurs), (i) become 100% vested and (ii) be exercisable at any time prior to the Acceptance Time (the “Option Exercise Period”). To the extent not exercised within the Option Exercise Period, each outstanding Company Option shall, at the Effective Time, be terminated and converted, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, into the right to receive an amount in cash equal to the product of (A) the number of Shares subject to such Company Option multiplied by (B) the Per Share Merger Consideration minus the per share exercise price of such Company Option (the “Option Payment”); provided that if the per share exercise price payable with respect to a Company Option exceeds the Per Share Merger Consideration (an “Underwater Option”), then such Underwater Option shall be cancelled without payment of any consideration with respect thereto. The Company shall terminate the Stock Plans immediately as of the Effective Time, and, following the Acceptance Time, no participant in any Stock Plan shall have any right under any such Stock Plan (other than the right to receive the Option Payment, in the case of a Company Option, or the Per Share Merger Consideration, in the case of Restricted Stock), in accordance with the terms of this Section 4.3. The Company Board of Directors (or, if appropriate, any committee thereof administering the Stock Plans) shall take all necessary and appropriate action to enable the treatment of the Company Options and Stock Plans contemplated hereby.

(b) The Company Board of Directors (or, if appropriate, any committee thereof administering the Stock Plans) shall take all necessary and appropriate actions to provide that, with respect to each Share of restricted stock granted under the Stock Plans (collectively, the “Restricted Stock”) that is outstanding immediately prior to the Acceptance Time, (i) the restrictions applicable to the Restricted Stock shall lapse, and (ii) the Restricted Stock shall become free of all restrictions and become fully vested and transferable at the Acceptance Time.

(c) All amounts payable pursuant to this Section 4.3 shall be reduced by the required withholding of Taxes, if any, and shall be paid without interest. Any amounts payable under this Section 4.3 shall be paid by Parent or the Surviving Corporation (or a subsidiary thereof). To the extent that amounts are so withheld by Parent, the Surviving Corporation or the Paying Agent, as the case may be, such withheld amounts (i) shall be remitted to the applicable Governmental Entity, and (ii) shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of which the applicable deduction and withholding was made.

(d) The Company shall take all actions necessary (including any required amendment) such that the ESPP will terminate upon the Effective Time, no further purchase rights shall accrue after the date of this Agreement and all ESPP participants will automatically receive their accrued purchase rights under the ESPP upon the termination of the ESPP.

(e) The Company shall take all actions and shall obtain all necessary consents and releases from all of the holders of rights under the EMS Technologies Inc. Deferred Compensation Plan for Non-Employee Directors (the “Directors Plan”), such that (i) the

Directors Plan will terminate as of the Effective Time, and (ii) upon the termination of the Directors Plan, each participant’s Deferral Account (as defined in the Directors Plan) shall be automatically converted to cash and will be paid to such participant in a lump sum as soon as practicable and, in any event, within thirty (30) days of the termination of the Directors Plan.

(f) The Company shall amend, as of the Effective Time, the provisions of any other Benefit Plan providing for the issuance, transfer or grant of any capital stock of the Company or any such Affiliate, or any interest in respect of any capital stock of the Company or any such Affiliate, to provide no continuing rights to acquire, hold, transfer or grant any capital stock of the Company or any such Affiliate or any interest in respect of the capital stock of the Company or any such Affiliate. Except as otherwise contemplated herein, any then outstanding stock appreciation rights or other interest in respect of the capital stock of the Company or any Affiliate of the Company shall be canceled immediately prior to the Effective Time without any payment therefor, and the Company shall take all steps to ensure that neither it nor any of its Affiliates is or will be bound by any options, warrants, rights or agreements which would entitle any Person, other than Parent or its Affiliates, to own any capital stock of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or to receive any payment in respect thereof.

Section 4.4 Adjustments to Prevent Dilution. Subject to the Company’s obligations pursuant to Section 7.1, if the Company changes the number of Shares or securities convertible or exchangeable into or exercisable for Shares issued and outstanding prior to the Effective Time as a result of a reclassification, stock split (including a reverse stock split), stock dividend or stock distribution, recapitalization, merger, issuer tender or exchange offer, or other similar transaction or the Company declares or makes any cash dividend or other cash or asset distribution with respect to the Shares, the Per Share Merger Consideration shall be equitably adjusted to reflect such change and as so adjusted shall, from and after the date of such event, be the Per Share Merger Consideration.

Section 4.5 Subsequent Actions. If, at any time after the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation shall consider or be advised that any deeds, bills of sale, assignments, assurances or any other actions or things are necessary or desirable to vest, perfect or confirm of record or otherwise in the Surviving Corporation, its right, title or interest in, to or under any of the rights, properties or assets of either of the Company or Merger Sub acquired or to be acquired by the Surviving Corporation as a result of, or in connection with, the Merger or otherwise to carry out this Agreement, the officers and directors of the Surviving Corporation shall be authorized to execute and deliver, in the name and on behalf of either the Company or Merger Sub, all such deeds, bills of sale, assignments and assurances and to take and do, in the name and on behalf of each of such corporations or otherwise, all such other actions and things as may be necessary or desirable to vest, perfect or confirm any and all right, title and interest in, to and under such rights, properties or assets in the Surviving Corporation or otherwise to carry out this Agreement.

ARTICLE V

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE COMPANY

Except (i) as disclosed in the Company Reports filed with the SEC since January 1, 2010 and prior to the third (3^rd) Business Day prior to the date of this Agreement (to the extent

that such disclosure does not constitute a “risk factor” and was not included in any section related to forward-looking statements to the extent that they are cautionary, predictive or forward-looking in nature), or (ii) as set forth in the disclosure letter delivered to Parent by the Company prior to or concurrently with entering into this Agreement (the “Company Disclosure Letter”) (it being agreed that disclosure of any item in any section or subsection of the Company Disclosure Letter shall be deemed disclosure with respect to any other section or subsection to which the relevance of such item is reasonably apparent regardless of whether a specific cross-reference is made), the Company hereby represents and warrants to Parent and Merger Sub that:

Section 5.1 Organization, Good Standing and Qualification.

(a) Each of the Company and its Subsidiaries is a legal entity duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the Laws of its respective jurisdiction of organization. Each of the Company and its Subsidiaries has all requisite corporate or similar power and authority to own, lease and operate its properties and assets and to carry on its business as presently conducted, except where the failure to have such power or authority has not had or would not reasonably be likely to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Company Material Adverse Effect.

(b) Each of the Company and its Subsidiaries is qualified to do business and is in good standing as a foreign corporation (or other legal entity) in each jurisdiction where the conduct of its business requires such qualification, except where the failure to be so qualified or in good standing has not had or would not reasonably be likely to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Company Material Adverse Effect. The Company has made available to Parent complete and correct copies of the Company’s and its material Subsidiaries’ articles of incorporation and bylaws or comparable governing documents, each as amended to the date hereof, and each as so made available is in full force and effect.

Section 5.2 Capital Structure.

(a) As of the close of business on June 10, 2011, the authorized capital stock of the Company consists of 75,000,000 Shares, of which 15,450,193 Shares were outstanding, and 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock, $1.00 par value per share, of which no shares are outstanding. All of the outstanding Shares have been duly authorized and are validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable.

(b) Other than those Shares reserved for issuance under the Stock Plans, the amount of which is set forth on Section 5.2(b) of the Company Disclosure Letter, the Company has no Shares reserved for issuance. Section 5.2(b) of the Company Disclosure Letter contains a correct and complete list of all Company Options and Restricted Stock under the Stock Plans, including the holder, date of grant, number of Shares and where applicable, exercise price and vesting schedule. Upon any issuance of any Shares in accordance with the terms of the Stock Plans, such Shares will be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and free and clear of any Liens. Except for options and other awards to acquire Shares under the Stock Plans, the Company does not have outstanding any bonds, debentures, notes or other obligations the holders of which have the right to vote (or convertible into or exercisable for securities having the right to vote) with the Company Shareholders on any matter. Each Company Option

intended to qualify as an “incentive stock option” under Section 422 of the Code so qualifies and the exercise price of each Company Option was, on the date of grant of such Company Option, not less than the fair market value of a share of Common Stock on such date of grant as determined by the Company Board of Directors and no such Company Option has had its exercise price decreased since its date of grant. Each Company Option: (i) has been granted in compliance with the terms of the Stock Plans, (ii) has an exercise price per share of Common Stock equal to or greater than the fair market value of a share of Common Stock on the date such Company Option was granted (and as of any later modification thereof within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code), (iii) has a grant date identical to the date on which the Company Board of Directors or the authorized committee of the Company Board of Directors actually awarded such Company Option (unless the such board or committee authorized a later grant date), and (iv) each Company Option grant date listed on Schedule 5.2(b) is the grant date of the respective Company Option for corporate, Tax and all other pertinent purposes.

(c) Section 5.2(c) of the Company Disclosure Letter sets forth (i) each of the Company’s Subsidiaries and the ownership interest of the Company in each such Subsidiary, as well as the ownership interest of any other Person or Persons in each such Subsidiary, and (ii) the Company’s and its Subsidiaries’ capital stock, equity interest or other direct or indirect ownership interest in any other Person, other than securities in a publicly traded company held for investment by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries and consisting of less than one percent (1%) of the outstanding capital stock of such company. Each of the outstanding shares of capital stock or other securities of each of the Company’s Subsidiaries is duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and owned by the Company or by a direct or indirect wholly-owned Subsidiary of the Company, free and clear of any mortgage, easement, lien, charge, pledge, security interest, claim, restriction or other encumbrance (each, a “Lien”).

(d) Other than, (w) the options and other awards granted under the Stock Plans and the rights to acquire Shares by the exercise of stock options and other awards under the Stock Plans, in each case outstanding as of the date of this Agreement, (x) rights issued under the Rights Plan that are outstanding as of the date of this Agreement, (y) the Top-Up Option and (z) any shares of Common Stock issued in compliance with Section 7.1(b), there are no preemptive or other outstanding rights, options, warrants, conversion rights, stock appreciation rights, stock units, phantom rights, redemption rights, repurchase rights, agreements, arrangements, calls or commitments that obligate the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to issue or sell any shares of capital stock or other securities of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or any securities or obligations convertible or exchangeable into or exercisable for, or giving any Person a right to subscribe for or acquire, or receive any payment based on the value of any securities of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, and no securities or obligations evidencing such rights are authorized, issued or outstanding. There are no declared or unpaid dividends or accrued dividends with respect to any shares of capital stock of the Company.

Section 5.3 Corporate Authority; Approval; Fairness Opinion.

(a) The Company has all requisite corporate power and authority to enter into this Agreement and, subject to obtaining necessary shareholder approval (if required by applicable Law to consummate the Merger) (the “Company Requisite Vote”), to consummate the Offer, the Merger and the other transactions contemplated hereby. This Agreement has been duly

executed and delivered by the Company and, assuming this Agreement has been duly executed by Parent and Merger Sub, constitutes a valid and binding agreement of the Company enforceable against the Company in accordance with its respective terms, subject to bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer, reorganization, moratorium and similar Laws of general applicability relating to or affecting creditors’ rights and to general equity principles (the “Bankruptcy and Equity Exception”).

(b) The execution and delivery of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby have been duly and validly authorized by unanimous vote of the Company Board of Directors and, except for (i) the Company Requisite Vote (if required by applicable Law to consummate the Merger) and (ii) the filing of the Articles of Merger with the Secretary of State of the State of Georgia, no other corporate proceedings on the part of the Company or, assuming the accuracy of the representation and warranty in Section 6.10, any vote of the holders of any class or series of the Company’s capital stock are necessary to authorize the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby.

(c) The Company Board has determined that each of the members of the Compensation Committee of the Company Board (the “Compensation Committee”) are and at the Appointment Time will be, “independent directors” as defined in Rule 4200(a)(15) of the NASDAQ Marketplace Rules and eligible to serve on the Compensation Committee under the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder and all applicable NASDAQ Marketplace Rules.

The Company has made available to Parent copies of all comment letters received by the Company from the SEC since January 1, 2010 relating to the Company Reports, together with all written responses of the Company thereto sent to the SEC.

The Company maintains internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) or 15d-15(f), as applicable, under the Exchange Act). Such internal control over financial reporting is, in all material respects, sufficient to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”).

(e) There are no liabilities or obligations of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, whether accrued, absolute, determined or contingent, which, individually or in the aggregate, would reasonably be likely to have a Company Material Adverse Effect, other than (i) liabilities or obligations disclosed or provided for in the Company’s audited balance sheet as of December 31, 2010 or in the notes thereto, (ii) liabilities or obligations incurred in the ordinary course of business since December 31, 2010, or (iii) liabilities or obligations expressly contemplated by this Agreement.

True and complete copies of all Benefit Plans listed on Section 5.9(a) of the Company Disclosure Letter, including any related trust instruments and custodial or insurance Contracts or other funding instruments, and all amendments thereto that are not publicly available have been made available to Parent (or if such Benefit Plan is not written, an accurate description of the material terms thereof), as well as, to the extent applicable, (i) any annual report, actuarial report, or disclosure

materials (including specifically any summary plan descriptions) submitted to any governmental agency or distributed to participants or beneficiaries thereunder in the current calendar year, (ii) the most recently received IRS determination or opinion letters and any governmental advisory opinions, rulings, compliance statements and closing agreements, specific to such Benefit Plan, and pending requests relating to any of the foregoing, and (iii) any written policies or procedures used in the administration of such Benefit Plan.

Each Benefit Plan which is subject to ERISA (an “ERISA Plan”) that is an “employee pension benefit plan” within the meaning of Section 3(2) of ERISA (a “Pension Plan”) intended to be qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code has received a favorable determination letter or is comprised of a master or prototype plan that has received a favorable opinion letter upon which the Company is entitled to rely under applicable Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) procedures, or has pending or has time remaining in which to file, an application for such determination letter, from the IRS, and, to the Knowledge of the Company, nothing has occurred as to each which has resulted or which could reasonably be expected to result in the loss of the qualification of such Pension Plan under Section 401(a) of the Code or which requires or could require action under the compliance resolution programs of the IRS to preserve such qualification. Except as has not had or would not be reasonably likely to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Company Material Adverse Effect, neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries, nor to the knowledge of the Company any person who is a party in interest in respect of any ERISA Plan within the meaning of Section 3(14) of ERISA, has engaged in a prohibited transaction with respect to any ERISA Plan that would subject the Company or any Subsidiary directly or indirectly to a Tax or penalty imposed by either Section 4975 of the Code or Section 502(i) of ERISA. Except as has not had or would not be reasonably likely to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Company Material Adverse Effect, neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries has incurred a Tax or penalty imposed by Section 4980F of the Code or Section 502 of ERISA.

(c) No Benefit Plan is subject to Section 412 of the Code or Section 302 or Title IV of ERISA, and neither the Company nor any ERISA Affiliate has any material liability with respect to any “employee benefit plan” within the meaning of Section 3(3) of ERISA that is subject to Section 412 of the Code or Section 302 or Title IV of ERISA.

(d) There is no pending or, to the Knowledge of the Company, threatened Action relating to the Benefit Plans which is reasonably likely to result in material liability, and, to the Knowledge of the Company, there is no basis for any such Action. Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries has any obligations for welfare benefits subsequent to termination of employment to employees or their beneficiaries under any Benefit Plan or collective bargaining agreement except as required by applicable Laws.

(e) Except for violations that would not be material, neither the execution of this Agreement, the adoption of this Agreement by the Company Shareholders, nor the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, whether individually or in combination with any other event (regardless of whether that other event has occurred or will occur), will (i) entitle any employees of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to severance pay or any increase in severance pay upon any termination of employment after the date hereof, (ii) accelerate the time of payment or vesting or result in any payment or funding (through a grantor trust or otherwise) of or increase in compensation or benefits under any of the Benefit Plans, (iii) result in payments under any of the Benefit Plans or any Contract or arrangement that would not be deductible or which deduction will be deferred under Section 162, Section 404 or Section 280G of the Code or would reimburse any Person for any excise or additional Taxes under Section 4999 or (iv) result in the payment of any “excess parachute payments” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code (without regard to the exception set forth in Section 280G(b)(4) of the Code).

(f) No liability (contingent or otherwise) to the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation (“PBGC”) or any Multiemployer Plan has been incurred by the Company or any ERISA Affiliate (other than insurance premiums satisfied in due course). The Company has not announced its intention, or undertaken (whether or not legally bound) to modify or terminate any Benefit Plan or adopt any arrangement or program which, once established, would come within the definition of a Benefit Plan. The Company has not undertaken to maintain any Benefit Plan for any period of time and each such Benefit Plan is terminable at the sole discretion of the sponsor thereof, subject only to such constraints as may imposed by applicable law, and without penalty or cost (other than routine administrative costs). The Company has no material liability, including under any Benefit Plan, arising out of the treatment of any service provider as a consultant or independent contractor and not as an employee, or vice versa.

(g) With respect to each Benefit Plan for which a separate fund of assets is or is required to be maintained, full and timely payment in all material respects has been made of all amounts required of the Company, under the terms of each such Benefit Plan or applicable law (determined without regard to any waiver of legally applicable funding requirements), as applied through the date of Closing. The fair market value of the assets of each such Benefit Plan, as of the end of the most recently ended plan year of that Benefit Plan, equals or exceeded the present value of all benefits liabilities under that Benefit Plan in all material respects. None of the assets of any Benefit Plan include any capital stock or other securities issued by the Company or any ERISA Affiliate.

(h) Except as would not be reasonably likely to have a Company Material Adverse Effect, each Benefit Plan subject to the laws of any jurisdiction outside of the United States (i) if intended to qualify for special tax treatment, meets all requirements for such treatment; (ii) is fully funded and has been fully accrued for on the Company’s financial statements; and (iii) if required to be registered, has been registered with the appropriate authorities and has been maintained in good standing with the appropriate regulatory authorities.

Section 409A of the Code has been operated and maintained in accordance with a good faith, reasonable interpretation of Section 409A of the Code and its purpose with respect to amounts deferred (within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code) after December 31, 2004, and (ii) by December 31, 2008, each plan, program, arrangement or agreement identified or required to be identified on Section 5.9(i) of the Company Disclosure Letter has been amended to the extent necessary or appropriate to comply with Section 409A of the Code and the final regulations promulgated thereunder.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, prior to the Acceptance Time, the Company Board of Directors may (A) withhold, withdraw, qualify or modify the Company Recommendation with respect to a Superior Proposal, (B) approve, recommend or otherwise declare advisable any Alternative Transaction with respect to a Superior Proposal, or (C) cause the Company to enter into an Alternative Acquisition Agreement with respect to a Superior Proposal, if in each case of (A) through (C), the Company Board of Directors

Section 7.2(b) or constitute a Change of Recommendation.

(d) Existing Discussions. The Company agrees that it will immediately cease and cause to be terminated any existing discussions or negotiations between the Company, its Subsidiaries or their respective Representatives with any parties conducted heretofore with respect to any Acquisition Proposal. The Company also shall promptly (and in any event on or before the second Business Day following the date of this Agreement) request each Person that executed a confidentiality agreement in the past six (6) months in connection with its consideration of acquiring the Company or any of the Company Subsidiaries to return or destroy all confidential information heretofore furnished to such Person by or on behalf of the Company or any of the Company Subsidiaries.

omission of a material fact. Each of Parent and Merger Sub shall vote, or cause to be voted, in favor of the adoption of this Agreement all Shares directly or indirectly beneficially owned by it, and to otherwise take all commercially reasonable actions to cause the Merger to occur.

Section 7.8 Employee Matters.

(a) Parent agrees to cause the Surviving Corporation or its Subsidiaries to provide any employee of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries who remains employed with the Surviving Corporation or any if its Subsidiaries after the Effective Time (collectively, the “Company Employees”) with, (a) for the period commencing at the Effective Time and ending on December 31, 2011, compensation, benefits, perquisites and other terms and conditions of employment that are substantially comparable, in the aggregate, to the benefits, perquisites and other terms and conditions that are provided to Company Employees immediately prior to the Effective Time (excluding, however, benefits under any defined benefit plans, equity compensation plans, or any other plan or agreement terminated pursuant to, or in connection with, this Agreement), unless Parent is legally or contractually required to provide otherwise and (b) for the period commencing January 1, 2012 and ending on December 31, 2012, benefits, perquisites and other terms and conditions of employment that are substantially comparable, in the aggregate, to the compensation, benefits, perquisites and other terms and conditions of employment that are provided to similarly situated employees of Parent (excluding, however, benefits under any defined benefit pension plans), as such compensation, benefits, perquisites and other terms and conditions of employment may change from time to time, unless Parent is

legally or contractually required to provide otherwise. Parent shall, and shall cause the Surviving Corporation or any Subsidiary of Parent or the Surviving Corporation to, treat, and cause the applicable benefit plans in which Company Employees are entitled to participate after the Closing Date to treat, the service of Company Employees with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries attributable to any period before the Closing Date as service rendered to Parent, the Surviving Corporation or any Subsidiary of Parent or the Surviving Corporation for purposes of eligibility to participate and vesting (but not for purposes of benefit accruals), determination of severance benefits, and paying, providing or satisfying when due all vacation, sick pay and other paid time off accrued but unused as of the Closing Date. Without limiting the foregoing, Parent shall, and shall cause the Surviving Corporation or any Subsidiary of Parent or the Surviving Corporation to, waive, and cause the applicable benefit plans in which Company Employees are entitled to participate after the Closing Date to waive, any pre-existing conditions or limitations, eligibility waiting periods or required physical examinations with respect to any Company Employees and their eligible dependents, to the extent waived or satisfied under any similar Benefit Plan immediately prior to the Closing Date, and Parent shall, and shall cause the Surviving Corporation or any Subsidiary of Parent or the Surviving Corporation to, recognize and credit, and cause the applicable benefit plans in which Company Employees are entitled to participate after the Closing Date to recognize and credit, any deductibles paid by Company Employees or their eligible dependents under any of the Benefit Plans that are group health plans in the plan year in which the Closing Date occurs towards deductibles under the group health plans of Parent, the Surviving Corporation or any Subsidiary of Parent or the Surviving Corporation.

(b) Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, Parent shall, and shall cause the Surviving Corporation and all Subsidiaries of the Parent or the Surviving Corporation to, honor, pay, perform and satisfy any and all liabilities, obligations and responsibilities to, or in respect of, each current and former employee of the Company arising under the terms of the change in control agreements, all of which are set forth on Schedule 7.8 hereto (the “Change in Control Arrangements”). For the purpose of the Change in Control Agreements, Parent acknowledges that the occurrence of the Acceptance Time will constitute a “change in control” and a “change of control” of the Company and its Subsidiaries. Without limiting the foregoing, Parent acknowledges and agrees that the applicable employees shall be entitled to the applicable payments and benefits set forth in the Change in Control Agreements in the event of their subsequent termination of employment due to an “Involuntary Termination” or due to the employee’s “Voluntary Termination,” as such terms are defined in, and to the extent such payments and benefits are provided for under, the Change in Control Agreements. Parent agrees that for the fiscal year in which the Merger is consummated that the bonus payable under the EMS Performance Bonus Plan (the “Performance Bonus Plan”), the EMS Technologies, Inc. Executive Annual Incentive Compensation Plan (the “Executive Incentive Plan”) and the EMS Technologies, Inc. Annual Incentive Compensation Plan (the “Annual Incentive Plan”) to each eligible participant under such Plans shall be equal to the bonus calculated pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Performance Bonus Plan, the Executive Incentive Plan and the Annual Incentive Plan, as applicable.

(c) Unless Parent requests otherwise in writing, the Company Board of Directors of the Company shall adopt resolutions terminating, effective no later than the day prior to the Effective Time, any Benefit Plan which is intended to meet the requirements of

Section 401(k) of the Code, and which is sponsored, or contributed to, by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (each, a “401(k) Plan”). At the Effective Time, the Company shall provide to Parent executed resolutions of the Company Board of Directors authorizing such termination.

(d) Nothing in this Agreement, whether express or implied, shall: (i) confer upon any employee of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or any representative of any such employee, or any Governmental Entity or other third party any rights, claims, benefits, causes of actions or remedies, including any right to employment or continued employment for any period or terms of employment, of any nature whatsoever, (ii) be interpreted to prevent or restrict Parent or the Surviving Corporation or their Affiliates from modifying or terminating the employment or terms of employment of any Company Employee, including the amendment or termination of any employee benefit or compensation plan, program or arrangement, after the Effective Time or (iii) be treated as an amendment or other modification of any Benefit Plan or other employee benefit plan or arrangement.

Section 7.9 Expenses. Except as provided in Section 9.3 and except with respect to costs and expenses of printing and mailing the Proxy Statement and all filing and other fees paid to the SEC in connection with the Merger, which shall be borne by the Company, and all filing fees under the HSR Act and any other filings with any Governmental Entity, which shall be borne by Parent, all costs and expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement and the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be paid by the party incurring such expense, whether or not the Offer, the Merger or any of such other transactions is consummated.

Section 7.10 Indemnification; Directors’ and Officers’ Insurance.

(a) All rights to indemnification and exculpation from liabilities and advancement of expenses for acts or omissions occurring or alleged to have occurred at or prior to the Effective Time now existing in favor of any individual who is now, or has been at any time prior to the date of this Agreement, or who becomes prior to the Effective Time, a director, officer or employee of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or who is or was serving at the request of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries as a director, officer or employee of another person (the “Indemnified Parties”) as provided in the respective articles of incorporation or bylaws (or comparable organizational documents) of the Company and its Subsidiaries, and any indemnification agreements shall survive the Offer and the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement and shall continue in full force and effect in accordance with their terms, and shall not be amended, repealed or otherwise modified for a period of six (6) years after the Closing Date in any manner that would adversely affect the rights thereunder of such individuals for acts or omissions occurring at or prior to the Effective Time.

(b) Parent shall cause the individuals serving as officers and directors of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries immediately prior to the Effective Time to be covered for a period of six (6) years from the Effective Time by the directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy maintained by the Company (provided that Parent may substitute therefor policies of at least the same coverage and amounts containing terms and conditions that are not less advantageous than such policy) with respect to acts or omissions occurring prior to the Effective Time that were committed by such officers and directors in their capacity as such; provided that

after the Closing Date in no event shall Parent be required to expend annually in the aggregate an amount in excess of 250% of the last annual premium paid by the Company for such insurance prior to the date hereof in respect of coverage required to be obtained pursuant hereto (the “Insurance Amount”); provided, however, that in lieu of the foregoing, the Company may purchase, prior to, on or after the Effective Time, a six-year “tail” prepaid directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy in respect of acts or omissions occurring prior to the Effective Time covering each such director and officer.

(c) If the Surviving Corporation or its successors or assigns (i) shall consolidate with or merge into any other corporation or entity and shall not be the continuing or surviving corporation or entity of such consolidation or merger or (ii) shall transfer all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any individual, corporation or other entity, then, and in each such case, proper provisions shall be made so that the successors and assigns of the Surviving Corporation shall assume all of the obligations set forth in this Section 7.10.

(d) The provisions of this Section 7.10 shall survive the Effective Time and are intended to be for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable by, each Indemnified Party and his or her heirs and representatives.

Section 7.11 Other Actions.

(a) Takeover Statutes. If any Takeover Statute is or may become applicable to the Offer, the Merger or any of the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement after the date of this Agreement, Parent, the board of directors of Parent, the Company and the Company Board of Directors shall use commercially reasonable efforts to grant such approvals and take such actions as are reasonably necessary so that such transactions may be consummated as promptly as practicable on the terms contemplated by this Agreement and otherwise act to eliminate or minimize the effects of such statute or regulation on such transactions.

(b) Rights Agreement. The Company shall cause its Amended and Restated Shareholder Rights Plan, dated as of August 6, 2009 and as amended on January 4, 2011 (the “Rights Plan”), to terminate immediately prior to the Effective Time. The Company shall take all actions necessary so that neither the execution and delivery of this Agreement nor the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby (including the Offer, the Merger and the Top-Up Option) will cause the rights granted under the Rights Plan to become exercisable.

(c) Section 16 Matters. The Company Board of Directors shall, prior to the Effective Time, take all such actions as may be necessary or appropriate to cause any disposition of the Shares or conversion of any derivative securities in respect of such Shares by an individual who is a director or officer of the Company subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement to be exempt under Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act.

(d) Rule 14d-10(d) Matters. Prior to the Acceptance Time, the Compensation Committee of the Company Board of Directors shall take all such steps as may be required to cause each agreement, arrangement or understanding entered into by the Company or its Subsidiaries on or after the date hereof (including with respect to the acceleration of vesting of

the Company Options or Restricted Stock and the agreements set forth on Section 6.9 of the Parent Disclosure Letter) with any of its officers, directors or employees pursuant to which consideration is paid to such officer, director or employee to be approved as an “employment compensation, severance or other employee benefit arrangement” within the meaning of Rule 14d-10(d)(1) under the Exchange Act and to satisfy the requirements of the non-exclusive safe harbor set forth in Rule 14d-10(d) under the Exchange Act.

(e) Other Actions By Parent and Merger Sub. Parent and Merger Sub shall use reasonable best efforts to refrain (and shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause their respective Affiliates to refrain) from taking, directly or indirectly, any action that would reasonably be expected to, individually or in the aggregate, prevent, materially delay or materially impede the consummation of the Offer, the Merger or the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Parent shall, promptly following execution of this Agreement, approve and adopt this Agreement in its capacity as sole shareholder of Merger Sub and deliver to the Company evidence of its vote or action by written consent approving and adopting this Agreement in accordance with applicable Law and the articles of incorporation and bylaws of Merger Sub.

then the Company shall pay Parent a termination fee of $19,600,000 (the “Termination Fee”), payable by wire transfer of same day funds (x) concurrently with such termination, in the case of clause (i), (y) within five (5) Business Days after the termination, in the case of clause (ii) and (z) upon the earlier of entry into the definitive agreement with respect to, or consummation of, the Outstanding Proposal or another Acquisition Proposal, in the case of clause (iii); provided, however, that the Company shall be relieved of its obligation to pay the Termination Fee pursuant to clause (i) or clause (ii) above if, prior to a termination pursuant to Section 9.1(c)(i) or prior to the Change of Recommendation, a Divestiture Request shall have been made, and Parent shall not have complied with, or offered to comply with, such Divestiture Request within three (3) Business Days after written request by the Company (but such request by the Company may not be delivered before the eighth (8) day after the Parent has received the Divestiture Request under Section 9.2(d)(iv)) to comply with such requirement or request by the relevant Governmental Entity (the parties acknowledge and agree that in the event the Company is relieved of its obligation to pay the Termination Fee pursuant to this proviso, Parent shall be relieved of any obligation to pay the Parent Termination Fee).

(ii) Either Parent or the Company terminates this Agreement pursuant to:

(A)

Section 9.1(b)(i) or Section 9.1(b)(ii), provided that (x) at the time of such termination all of the conditions set forth on Exhibit A shall have been satisfied except that the condition(s) set forth in clause (a) (with respect to matters under the Antitrust Laws), (b) (with respect to matters under the Antitrust Laws) and/or (f) on Exhibit A shall not have been satisfied and the Minimum Condition and the

			condition set forth in clause (e) may not have been satisfied, (y) prior to such termination, a Divestiture Request shall have been made and Parent shall not have complied with such Divestiture Request, and (z) as of such date it is reasonably likely that the Minimum Tender Condition and the condition set forth in clause (e) would be satisfied if the Offer were to be consummated on such date; or

and at the time of any termination pursuant to clause (i) or clause (ii) above, the condition set forth in clause (d) on Exhibit A shall have been satisfied, then Parent shall pay the Company a termination fee of $19,600,000 (the “Parent Termination Fee”), payable by wire transfer of same day funds (x) prior to or concurrently with such termination, in the case of clause (i), and (y) within five (5) Business Days after the termination, in the case of clause (ii). In no event shall Parent be required to pay the Termination Fee on more than one occasion. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement (including Section 10.5), the Company acknowledges and agrees on behalf of itself, its shareholders and its Affiliates that if the Parent Termination Fee becomes payable and is paid by Parent pursuant to this Section 9.3, the right to receive the Parent Termination Fee shall constitute the Company’s and its Affiliates’ and Representatives’ sole and exclusive remedy under this Agreement.
