AGREEMENT

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and premises contained in this Agreement and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties to this Agreement agree as follows:

ARTICLE I

THE MERGER

Section 1.1 The Merger.

(a) Upon the terms and subject to the satisfaction or waiver (to the extent permitted hereunder) of the conditions set forth in Article VI (other than those conditions that by their terms are to be satisfied or waived (if permitted hereunder) at the Closing, but subject to the satisfaction or waiver (to the extent permitted hereunder) of such conditions at the Closing, at the Effective Time, Merger Subsidiary shall be merged with and into the Company in accordance with the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, as amended from time to time (the “DGCL”) whereupon the separate existence of Merger Subsidiary shall cease, and the Company shall be the surviving corporation (the “Surviving Corporation”).

(b) The consummation of the Merger shall take place at a closing (the “Closing”) to occur at the offices of DLA Piper LLP (US), 000 Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxx 0000, Xxxxxx, Xxxxx 00000, on a date and at a time to be agreed upon by Parent and the Company, which date shall be no later than the second Business Day after the satisfaction or waiver (to the extent permitted hereunder) of the last to be satisfied or waived of the conditions set forth in Article VI (other than those conditions that by their terms are to be satisfied or waived (if permitted hereunder) at the Closing, but subject to the satisfaction or waiver (to the extent permitted hereunder) of such conditions at the Closing), or at such other location, date and time as Parent and the Company shall mutually agree upon in writing. The date upon which the Closing shall actually occur pursuant hereto is referred to herein as the “Closing Date.”

(c) On the Closing Date, the Company and Merger Subsidiary shall file a certificate of merger to effect the Merger (the “Certificate of Merger”), in such appropriate form and substance as is determined by the parties and in accordance with the DGCL, with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, and make any other filings or recordings required by the DGCL in connection with the Merger. The Merger shall become effective at such time (the “Effective Time”) as the Certificate of Merger is duly filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware (or at such later time as may be mutually agreed to by the parties and as specified in the Certificate of Merger).

(d) From and after the Effective Time, the Merger shall have the effects as set forth in this Agreement, the Certificate of Merger, and the applicable provisions of the DGCL. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, and subject thereto, from and after the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation shall possess all the rights, powers, privileges and franchises and be subject to all of the debts, obligations, liabilities, restrictions, disabilities and duties of each of the Company and Merger Subsidiary.

Section 1.2 Conversion of Shares of Capital Stock. At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of Parent, the Company, Merger Subsidiary or the holders of any securities of Parent, the Company, Merger Subsidiary or any other Person:

(a) each share of Company Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than shares canceled pursuant to Section 1.2(b) and Dissenting Shares, if any) shall be converted into the right to receive $0.35 in cash, without interest (the “Merger Consideration”), and upon conversion thereof, all such shares of Company Common Stock shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be canceled and shall cease to exist, and each holder of Certificates or Uncertificated Shares shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive the Merger Consideration in accordance with the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein. For the avoidance of doubt, no Rollover Shares shall be converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration;

(b) each share of Company Common Stock, Series A Preferred Stock and Series B Preferred Stock held by the Company as treasury stock or owned by Parent (including the Rollover Shares), Merger Subsidiary or any wholly-owned Subsidiary of the Company or Parent (other than Merger Subsidiary) immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be automatically canceled and shall cease to exist, and no consideration or payment shall be delivered in exchange therefor; and

(c) each share of common stock of Merger Subsidiary outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into and become one validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable share of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of the Surviving Corporation with the same rights, powers and privileges as the shares so converted and shall constitute the only outstanding shares of capital stock of the Surviving Corporation.

Section 1.3 Surrender and Payment.

(a) Prior to the Effective Time, Parent shall appoint an agent reasonably acceptable to the Company (the “Exchange Agent”) for the purpose of exchanging for the aggregate Merger Consideration payable in respect thereof (i) certificates representing shares of Company Capital Stock (the “Certificates”) or (ii) uncertificated shares of Company Capital Stock (the “Uncertificated Shares”). At the Effective Time, Parent shall deposit and make available to the Exchange Agent the aggregate Merger Consideration to be paid in respect of the Certificates and the Uncertificated Shares (but not, for the avoidance of doubt, the Dissenting Shares, the Company Option Merger Consideration or the Company RSU Merger Consideration) (the “Exchange Fund”). All cash deposited with the Exchange Agent shall only be used for the purposes provided in this Agreement, or as otherwise agreed by the Company and Parent before the Effective Time. Any income from investment of the Exchange Fund will be payable to the Surviving Corporation. Promptly after the Effective Time (but in no event later than five Business Days after the Effective Time), Parent shall cause the Exchange Agent to send to each holder of shares of Company Capital Stock at the Effective Time (other than the Company, Parent, Merger Subsidiary, any wholly-owned Subsidiary of the Company or Parent, or holders of Dissenting Shares who have not subsequently withdrawn or lost their rights of appraisal) a letter of transmittal, in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Surviving Corporation, and instructions (which shall specify that the delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title shall pass, only upon proper delivery of the Certificates (or affidavits of loss in lieu thereof as provided in Section 1.7) or transfer of the Uncertificated Shares to the Exchange Agent) for use in such exchange.

(b) Each holder of shares of Company Capital Stock that have been converted into the right to receive the aggregate Merger Consideration payable in respect thereof shall be entitled to receive, upon (i) surrender to the Exchange Agent of a Certificate (or an affidavit of loss in lieu thereof as provided in Section 1.7), together with a properly completed letter of transmittal, or (ii) receipt of an “agent’s message” by the Exchange Agent (or such other evidence, if any, of transfer as the Exchange Agent may reasonably request) in the case of a book-entry transfer of Uncertificated Shares, the aggregate Merger Consideration payable in respect of the Company Capital Stock represented by a Certificate or Uncertificated Share. Until so surrendered or transferred, as the case may be, each such Certificate or Uncertificated Share shall represent after the Effective Time for all purposes only the right to receive such Merger Consideration. No interest or dividends will be paid or accrue on any Merger Consideration payable to holders of Certificates or Uncertificated Shares.

(c) If any portion of the aggregate Merger Consideration is to be paid to a Person other than the Person in whose name the surrendered Certificate or the transferred Uncertificated Share is registered, it shall be a condition to such payment that (i) either such Certificate shall be properly endorsed or shall otherwise be in proper form for transfer or such Uncertificated Share shall be properly transferred and (ii) the Person requesting such payment shall pay in advance to the Exchange Agent any transfer or other taxes required as a result of such payment to a Person other than the registered holder of such Certificate or Uncertificated Share or establish to the satisfaction of the Exchange Agent that such tax has been paid or is not payable.

(d) After the Effective Time, the stock transfer books of the Company shall be closed with respect to all shares of Company Capital Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and there shall be no further registration of transfers of shares of Company Capital Stock. If, after the Effective Time, Certificates or Uncertificated Shares are presented to the Surviving Corporation or the Exchange Agent, they shall be canceled and exchanged for the Merger Consideration as provided for, and in accordance with the procedures set forth, in this Article I.

(e) Any portion of the Exchange Fund that remains unclaimed by the holders of shares of Company Capital Stock one year after the Effective Time shall be returned to Parent, upon demand, and any such holder who has not exchanged shares of Company Capital Stock for the Merger Consideration in accordance with this Article I prior to that time shall thereafter look only to the Surviving Corporation for payment of the Merger Consideration, in respect of such shares without any interest thereon. Notwithstanding the foregoing, none of Parent, the Surviving Corporation or the Exchange Agent shall be liable to any holder of shares of Company Capital Stock for any amounts paid to a public official pursuant to applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar laws. Any amounts remaining unclaimed by holders of shares of Company Capital Stock immediately prior to such time when such amounts would otherwise escheat to or become property of any Governmental Entity shall become, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, the property of Parent free and clear of any claims or interest of any Person previously entitled thereto.

(f) Any portion of the aggregate Merger Consideration made available to the Exchange Agent pursuant to Section 1.4 in respect of any Dissenting Shares shall be returned to Parent, upon demand.

Section 1.4 Dissenting Shares. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, shares of Company Capital Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than shares of Company Common Stock canceled in accordance with Section 1.2(b)) and held by a holder who has not voted in favor of adoption of this Agreement or consented thereto in writing and who has properly exercised appraisal rights of such shares in accordance with Section 262 of the DGCL (such shares being referred to collectively as the “Dissenting Shares” until such time as such holder fails to perfect or effectively withdraws or otherwise loses such holder’s appraisal rights under the DGCL with respect to such shares) shall not be converted into or represent the right to receive the Merger Consideration but instead such Dissenting Shares shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be canceled and shall cease to exist, and the holder thereof shall be entitled to only such rights as are granted by Section 262 of the DGCL payment of the appraised value of such shares in accordance with the DGCL; provided, however, that if, after the Effective Time, such holder fails to perfect or effectively withdraws or otherwise loses such holder’s right to appraisal pursuant to Section 262 of the DGCL or if a court of competent jurisdiction shall determine that such holder is not entitled to the relief provided by Section 262 of the DGCL, such shares of Company Capital Stock shall thereupon be treated as if they had been converted into and exchangeable for, as of the Effective Time, the right to receive the Merger Consideration in accordance with this Agreement, without interest thereon, upon surrender of such Certificate formerly representing such shares, and shall not thereafter be deemed to be Dissenting Shares. The Company shall provide Parent prompt written notice of any demands received by the Company for appraisal of shares of Company Capital Stock, any withdrawal of any such demand and any other demand, notice or instrument delivered to the Company prior to the Effective Time pursuant to the DGCL that relates to such demand, and Parent shall have the opportunity and right to participate in and control all negotiations and proceedings with respect to such demands under the DGCL consistent with the obligations of the Company thereunder. Except with the prior written consent of Parent, the Company shall not make any payment with respect to, or offer to settle or settle, any such demands, or agree to do any of the foregoing. From and after the Effective Time, a holder of Dissenting Shares shall not be entitled to exercise any of the voting rights or other rights of an equity owner of the Surviving Corporation or of a stockholder of Parent.

Section 1.5 Company Equity Awards.

(a) Neither Surviving Corporation nor Parent shall assume any Company Options or substitute for any Company Option any option for Surviving Corporation or Parent stock, in connection with the Merger or any of the Transactions. As of immediately prior to the Effective Time, and

conditioned upon the occurrence of the Effective Time, and without any action on the part of any optionholder, (i) all Unvested Company Options outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be canceled and terminated without any cash payment being made in respect thereof, and (ii) to the extent not exercised prior to the Effective Time, each Vested Company Option shall be canceled, with each former holder of any such canceled Vested Company Option becoming entitled to receive, at the Effective Time, in consideration of the cancellation of such Vested Company Option, an amount in cash (without interest and subject to deduction for any required withholding Tax as contemplated in Section 1.6), equal to the product of: (A) the excess, if any, of the Merger Consideration over the exercise price per share of each such Vested Company Option; and (B) the number of shares of Company Common Stock underlying such Vested Company Option (the “Company Option Merger Consideration”); provided, however, that if the exercise price per share of any such Vested Company Option is equal to or greater than the Merger Consideration, such Vested Company Option shall be canceled and terminated without any cash payment being made in respect thereof. Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to pay the Company Option Merger Consideration, without interest thereon, at the Effective Time or as soon practicable thereafter (but in no event later than the date which is the later of (x) five Business Days after the Effective Time and (y) the date of the Company’s first regularly scheduled payroll after the Effective Time).

(b) Neither Surviving Corporation nor Parent shall assume any Company RSU or substitute for any Company RSU any similar award for Surviving Corporation or Parent stock, in connection with the Merger or any of the Transactions. As of immediately prior to the Effective Time, and conditioned upon the occurrence of the Effective Time, and without any action on the part of any holder of Company RSUs, (i) all Unvested Company RSUs outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be canceled and terminated without any cash payment being made in respect thereof, and (ii) each Vested Company RSU that is outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be canceled at the Effective Time, and, in exchange therefor, the Surviving Corporation shall pay to each former holder of any such Vested Company RSU an amount in cash (without interest and subject to deduction for any required withholding Tax as contemplated in Section 1.6) equal to the product of (A) the Merger Consideration and (B) the number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to such Vested Company RSU (the “Company RSU Merger Consideration”).; provided that notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, any payment in respect of any Company RSU which immediately prior to such cancellation was treated as “deferred compensation” subject to Section 409A of the Code shall be made on the applicable settlement date for such Company RSU if required in order to comply with Section 409A of the Code. Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to pay the Company RSU Merger Consideration, without interest thereon, at the Effective Time or as soon practicable thereafter (but in no event later than the date which is the later of (x) five Business Days after the Effective Time and (y) the date of the Company’s first regularly scheduled payroll after the Effective Time.

(c) The Company Board (or, if appropriate, any committee thereof administering the Company Plans) shall take such actions as are necessary to (i) approve and effectuate the foregoing provisions of this Section 1.5, including making any determinations and/or resolutions of the Company Board or a committee thereof or any administrator of a Company Plan as may be necessary, and (ii) provide that following the Effective Time, no participant in any Company Plan will have any right thereunder to acquire any equity securities of the Company, the Surviving Corporation or any of their respective Subsidiaries.

Section 1.6 Withholding Rights. Notwithstanding any provision contained herein to the contrary, each of the Company, Exchange Agent, Surviving Corporation and Parent shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise payable to any Person pursuant to this Article I such amounts as it is required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under

any provision of federal, state, local or foreign Tax law. If the Company, Exchange Agent, Surviving Corporation or Parent, as the case may be, so withholds amounts, such amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the holder of shares of Company Capital Stock, Company Stock Options, Company RSUs, as applicable, in respect of which the Company, Exchange Agent, Surviving Corporation or Parent, as the case may be, made such deduction and withholding.

Section 1.7 Lost Certificates. If any Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit (in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Exchange Agent) of that fact by the Person claiming such Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed and, if required by Parent, the delivery by such Person of a written indemnity agreement in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Parent and which indemnity shall not require the posting by such Person of a bond, the Exchange Agent will issue, in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate, the aggregate Merger Consideration payable in respect of the shares of Company Capital Stock represented by such Certificate, as contemplated by this Article I.

Section 1.8 Further Action. If, at any time after the Effective Time, any further action is necessary to carry out the purposes of this Agreement or to vest the Surviving Corporation with full right, title and possession of and to all rights and property of Merger Subsidiary and the Company, the officers and directors of the Surviving Corporation and Parent shall be fully authorized (in the name of Merger Subsidiary, in the name of the Company and otherwise) to take and shall take all such necessary and lawful action.

Section 1.9 Adjustments. Without limiting the other provisions of this Agreement, if at any time during the period between the Agreement Date and the Effective Time, any change in the outstanding shares of Company capital stock shall occur, including by reason of any reclassification, recapitalization, stock split (including reverse stock split) or combination, exchange or readjustment of shares, or any stock dividend or distribution paid in stock, the Merger Consideration shall be appropriately adjusted to reflect such change, and such adjustment shall provide the Company Stockholders with the same economic effect as contemplated by this Agreement prior to such change; provided, however, that nothing in this Section 1.9 shall be construed to permit the Company to take any action with respect to the Company Capital Stock that is prohibited by the terms of this Agreement.

ARTICLE II

At the Effective Time, the certificate of incorporation of the Surviving Corporation shall be amended and restated in its entirety to read as set forth in Exhibit B hereto, and, as so amended and restated, shall be the certificate of incorporation of the Surviving Corporation until thereafter amended in accordance with the DGCL and such certificate of incorporation.

Section 2.2 Bylaws. The parties hereto shall take all actions necessary so that the bylaws of the Surviving Corporation shall be amended and restated in their entirety as the bylaws of Merger Subsidiary in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time (except as to the name of the Surviving Corporation, and shall contain such provisions as are necessary to give full effect to Section 5.10 hereof), and as so amended shall be the bylaws of the Surviving Corporation until thereafter amended in accordance with the DGCL, the certificate of incorporation of the Surviving Corporation and such bylaws.

ARTICLE III

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE COMPANY

The Company is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the Laws of the State of Delaware and has all requisite corporate power and corporate authority necessary to carry on its business as it is now being conducted and to own, lease or operate its respective properties and assets. The Company is duly licensed or qualified to do business and is in good standing (where such concept is recognized under applicable Law) in each jurisdiction in which the nature of the business conducted by it or the character or location of the properties and assets owned or leased by it makes such licensing, qualification or good standing necessary, except where the failure to be so licensed, qualified or in good standing, individually or in the aggregate, has not had and would not reasonably be expected to have a Company Material Adverse Effect. True and complete copies of the Company Charter Documents (as amended to the Agreement Date) are included in the Filed SEC Documents.

(a) The Company has no Subsidiaries, except for the entities set forth in Section 3.1(a) of the Company Disclosure Schedules.

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, from the Agreement Date until 11:59 p.m. Central Time on the date which is 45 days after the Agreement Date (the “Go-Shop Period End Date”), the Company and its Subsidiaries and their respective Representatives shall have the right (acting under the direction of the Special Committee) to directly or indirectly (i) initiate, solicit, facilitate and encourage Acquisition Proposals, including by way of public disclosure and by way of providing access to non-public information to any person (each, a “Solicited Person”) pursuant to (but only pursuant to) a confidentiality agreement; and (ii) enter into, maintain and otherwise participate in discussions or negotiations with respect to Acquisition Proposals or otherwise cooperate with, assist or participate in, facilitate, or take any other action in connection with any such inquiries, proposals, discussions or negotiations. Except as set forth in Section 5.3(c) and except with respect to any Excluded Party, after the Go-Shop Period End Date, the Company agrees that neither it nor any of its Subsidiaries nor any of their respective directors, officers or employees will, and that it will cause its and its Subsidiaries’ agents, advisors and other Representatives (including, without limitation, any investment banker, attorney or accountant retained by the Company), not to, in each case, directly or indirectly, (i) solicit, initiate or knowingly encourage (including by way of furnishing non-public information), or take any other action to knowingly facilitate, any inquiries or the making of any proposal or offer (including, without limitation, any proposal or offer to its shareholders) that constitutes, or could reasonably be expected to lead to, any Acquisition Proposal, (ii) enter into, maintain or continue discussions or negotiations with, or provide any non-public information to, any person in connection with an Acquisition Proposal, (iii) agree to or approve, endorse or recommend any Acquisition Proposal or enter into any letter of intent or Contract or commitment contemplating or otherwise relating to, or reasonably be expected to result in, any Acquisition Proposal (other than a confidentiality agreement), or (iv) release any third party from confidentiality obligations under any confidentiality agreement to which the Company is a party. Within forty-eight hours following the Go-Shop Period End Date, the Company shall notify Parent of the material terms and conditions of any proposal or offer regarding an Acquisition Proposal (including any amendments or modifications thereof) received from any Excluded Party (which shall include a copy of the proposal made by such Excluded Party (which copy may be redacted to omit the identity of such Excluded Party) and a summary of any financing material related thereto (if any)).

After the Go-Shop Period End Date, the Company shall notify Parent promptly (and in any event within forty-eight hours following receipt), orally and in writing, of the Company’s receipt of any Acquisition Proposal (including material amendments or proposed material amendments thereto) and provide a summary of the material terms and conditions thereof.

(b) Following the Go-Shop Period End Date, the Company shall keep Parent informed of the status of any Acquisition Proposal, on a reasonably current basis (and in any event within forty-eight hours of the occurrence of any material changes, developments, discussions or negotiations), specifying (i) the material terms and conditions of any such Acquisition Proposal, including material amendments or proposed material amendments, and (ii) whether the Company has any intention to provide confidential information to such Person. Without limiting the foregoing, the Company shall (i) promptly notify Parent in writing if it determines to initiate actions concerning a proposal, offer, inquiry, contact or request, in each case as permitted by this Section 5.3(b), and (ii) provide Parent with forty-eight hours prior notice (or such lesser prior notice as is provided to the members of the Company Board or members of the Special Committee) of any meeting of the Company Board or the Special Committee at which the Company Board or the Special Committee, as applicable, is reasonably expected to consider any inquiry, proposal or offer relating to any Acquisition Proposal.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 5.3, at any time after the Go-Shop Period End Date and prior to the receipt of the Company Stockholder Approval, the Company and its Representatives may (acting under the direction of the Special Committee), following the receipt of a written Acquisition Proposal (provided that such Acquisition Proposal shall not have been obtained in violation of Section 5.3(a) and the Company shall have complied with the requirements of Section 5.3(a) with respect to such Acquisition Proposal):

(i) contact the person or group of persons who has made such Acquisition Proposal to clarify and understand the terms and conditions thereof and to notify such person of the restrictions of this Section 5.3;

(ii) provide information (including any non-public information or data concerning the Company or any of its Subsidiaries) in response to the request of the person or group of persons who has made such Acquisition Proposal, if prior to providing such information, the Company has received from the person or group of persons so requesting such information an executed a confidentiality agreement, a copy of which shall be promptly (and, in any event, within 48 hours) provided to Parent; provided that the Company shall make available to Parent all material non-public information concerning the Company and its Subsidiaries that is provided to any person or group of persons making such Acquisition Proposal that is given such access to the extent not previously provided to Parent and Merger Subsidiary within 48 hours of providing it to such person or group of persons; and/or

(iii) engage or participate in any discussions or negotiations with the person or group of persons who has made such Acquisition Proposal (including solicitation of revised Acquisition Proposals);

provided that prior to taking any action described Section 5.3(c)(ii) or Section 5.3(c)(iii) above, the Special Committee has determined, in good faith (after consultation with a financial advisor of internationally recognized reputation and independent legal counsel), that such Acquisition Proposal constitutes or could reasonably be expected to result in a Superior Proposal. For the avoidance of doubt, after the Go-Shop Period End Date, the Company may continue to take any of the actions described in this Section 5.3(c) with respect to any Acquisition Proposal submitted by a Solicited Person on or before the Go-Shop Period End Date if the Special Committee has determined, in good faith (after consultation

with a financial advisor of internationally recognized reputation and independent legal counsel), that such Acquisition Proposal constitutes or could reasonably be expected to result in a Superior Proposal (each such Solicited Person, an “Excluded Party”). Any Excluded Party shall cease to be an Excluded Party for all purposes of this Agreement immediately at such time as the offer or proposal with respect to an Acquisition Proposal made by such Person is withdrawn, is terminated or expires, or the Special Committee determines in good faith that such offer or proposal has ceased to constitute, or is no longer reasonably likely to result in, a Superior Proposal.

(d) Except as set forth in this Section 5.3(d), neither the Company Board nor the Special Committee shall (i) change, withhold, withdraw, qualify or modify, in a manner adverse to Parent or Merger Subsidiary, or propose publicly to change, withhold, withdraw, qualify or modify, in a manner adverse to Parent or Merger Subsidiary, the Company Recommendation, (ii) adopt, approve or recommend, or propose to adopt, approve or recommend, any Acquisition Proposal, (iii) fail to make the Company Recommendation or fail to include the Company Recommendation in the Proxy Statement, (iv) fail to recommend against any Acquisition Proposal subject to Regulation 14D under the Exchange Act in a Solicitation/Recommendation Statement on Schedule 14D-9 within ten Business Days after the commencement of such Acquisition Proposal, or (v) resolve or publicly announce its intention to do any of such actions under clauses (i) through (iv) (any of such actions under clauses (i) through (v) being referred to as a “Change of Recommendation”) or (vi) authorize, approve or recommend, or cause or permit the Company or any of the Company Subsidiaries to enter into any letter of intent, acquisition agreement, merger agreement or other similar definitive agreement relating to, any Acquisition Proposal (an “Alternative Acquisition Agreement”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if, prior to obtaining the Company Stockholder Approval, the Company or the Special Committee shall have received a written Acquisition Proposal that the Special Committee determines, in good faith (after consultation with independent legal counsel), constitutes a Superior Proposal, the Company Board may effect a Change of Recommendation, recommend a Superior Proposal, authorize the Company to terminate this Agreement and/or authorize the Company or any of the Company Subsidiaries to enter into an Alternative Acquisition Agreement with respect to such Superior Proposal, but only (i) if such Acquisition Proposal is not the result of a material breach by the Company of Sections 5.3(b) and 5.3(c); (ii) after (A) providing written notice to Parent (a “Notice of Superior Proposal”) advising Parent that the Company or the Special Committee, as applicable, has received a Superior Proposal, specifying the material terms and conditions of such Superior Proposal and identifying the person making such Superior Proposal and a summary of any financing materials related thereto (if any) and indicating that the Company Board intends to effect a Change of Recommendation (it being understood that the Notice of Superior Proposal shall not constitute a Change of Recommendation), (B) negotiating with and causing its financial and legal advisors to negotiate with Parent and its Representatives in good faith (to the extent Parent desires to negotiate), during the five Business Day period immediately following delivery of the Notice of Superior Proposal (the “Notice Period”), to make such adjustments in the terms and conditions of this Agreement, so that such Acquisition Proposal would cease to constitute a Superior Proposal, and (C) permitting Parent and its Representatives to make a presentation to the Special Committee regarding this Agreement and any adjustments with respect thereto (to the extent Parent desires to make such presentation); provided, that any material modifications to such Acquisition Proposal that the Special Committee has determined to be a Superior Proposal shall be deemed a new Superior Proposal and the Company shall be required to provide a new Notice of Superior Proposal (provided that any additional Notice Period shall be reduced to three Business Days); and (iii) following the end of such Notice Period(s), the Special Committee determines, in good faith (after consultation with a financial advisor of internationally recognized reputation and independent legal counsel), after considering the terms of any proposed modification or amendment to this Agreement by Parent, that the Acquisition Proposal giving rise to the Notice of Superior Proposal continues to constitute a Superior Proposal.

(e) Nothing contained in this Section 5.3 shall be deemed to prohibit the Company or the Company Board (or the Special Committee) from complying with its disclosure obligations under U.S. federal or state or non-U.S. Law with regard to an Acquisition Proposal; provided that if such disclosure includes a Change of Recommendation or has the substantive effect of withdrawing or adversely modifying the Company Recommendation, such disclosure shall be deemed to be a Change of Recommendation (it being understood that a statement by the Company that describes the Company’s receipt of an Acquisition Proposal and the operation of this Agreement with respect thereto, or any “stop, look or listen” communication that contains only the information set forth in Rule 14d-9(f) under the Exchange Act shall not constitute a Change of Recommendation).

Section 5.4 Proxy Filing and Schedule 13E-3.

(a) The Company shall prepare and file with the SEC, as promptly as practicable after the Agreement Date (and in any event no later than fifteen Business Days), the Schedule 13E-3 and a proxy statement in preliminary form relating to the meeting of the Company’s stockholders to be held in connection with the approval of the adoption of this Agreement and the Transactions, including the Merger (such proxy statement, including any amendment or supplement thereto, the “Proxy Statement”) and, subject to Section 5.3, shall include the Company Recommendation in the Proxy Statement. Each of Parent and the Company shall provide the other with the information contemplated by Section 5.6(c) and shall otherwise reasonably assist and cooperate with the other in connection with any of the actions contemplated by this Section 5.4, including the preparation, filing and distribution of the Schedule 13E-3 and the Proxy Statement and the resolution of any comments in respect thereof received from the SEC.

(b) If the Company determines that it is required to file any document other than the Proxy Statement and the Schedule 13E-3 with the SEC in connection with the Merger pursuant to applicable Law (such document, as amended or supplemented, an “Other Required Company Filing”), then the Company shall prepare and file as soon as practicable such Other Required Company Filing with the SEC. The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause the Proxy Statement, Schedule 13E-3 and any Other Required Company Filing to comply as to form in all material respects with the applicable requirements of the Exchange Act and the rules of the SEC and the OTCQX. The Company may not file the Proxy Statement, Schedule 13E-3 or any Other Required Company Filing with the SEC, or respond to any SEC comments thereon, without providing Parent and its counsel, to the extent practicable, a reasonable opportunity to review and comment thereon, which comments shall be considered by the Company in good faith.

(c) If at any time prior to the Stockholders Meeting (as defined below), any information relating to the Company, Parent, Merger Subsidiary or any of their respective Affiliates is discovered by the Company, on the one hand, or Parent or Merger Subsidiary, on the other hand, that should be set forth in an amendment or supplement to the Proxy Statement, Schedule 13E-3, or any Other Required Company Filing, as the case may be, so that such filing would not include any misstatement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, then the party that discovers such information will promptly notify the other, and an appropriate amendment or supplement to such filing describing such information will be prepared and filed as soon as practicable with the SEC by the Company and, to the extent required by applicable Law or the SEC or its staff, disseminated to the stockholders of the Company.

Section 5.5 Stockholders Meeting. Subject to Section 5.3 and unless this Agreement is earlier terminated pursuant to Article VII, the Company will take, in accordance with applicable Law and its certificate of incorporation and bylaws, all action necessary to establish a record date for, call, give notice of, convene and hold a meeting of holders of the Company Capital Stock (the “Stockholders

Meeting”) as promptly as reasonably practicable after the execution of this Agreement to consider and vote upon the adoption of this Agreement. Once established, the record date of the Stockholders Meeting may not be changed without the consent of Parent (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) or as required by applicable Law. In the event that the date of the Stockholders Meeting as originally called is for any reason adjourned or postponed or otherwise delayed, the Company agrees that unless Parent shall have otherwise approved in writing, it shall implement such adjournment or postponement or other delay in such a way that the Company does not establish a new record date for the Stockholders Meeting, as so adjourned, postponed or delayed. Subject to Section 5.3(e), the Company shall solicit from the stockholders of the Company proxies in favor of the adoption of this Agreement in accordance with the DGCL, and, subject to Section 5.3, the Company Board shall recommend such adoption and shall take all lawful action to solicit such adoption of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Company may adjourn or postpone the Stockholders Meeting (i) to the extent necessary to ensure that any supplement or amendment to the Proxy Statement that is required by applicable Law is timely provided to the Company’s stockholders, (ii) if as of the time for which the Stockholders Meeting is originally scheduled there are insufficient shares of Company Capital Stock represented (either in person or by proxy) to constitute a quorum necessary to conduct the business to be conducted at the Stockholders Meeting, or (iii) if additional time is reasonably required to solicit proxies in favor of the adoption of this Agreement, with the prior written consent of Parent. The Company shall, upon the reasonable request of Parent, advise Parent at least on a daily basis on each of the last ten Business Days prior to the date of the Stockholders Meeting, as to the aggregate tally of the proxies received by the Company with respect to the Company Stockholder Approval.

Section 5.6 Filings; Other Actions; Notification.

(a) Proxy Statement. The Company, on the one hand, and Parent and Merger Subsidiary, on the other hand, shall promptly notify the other of the receipt of any comments of the SEC with respect to the Proxy Statement, Schedule 13E-3 or any Other Required Company Filing and of any request by the SEC for any amendment or supplement thereto or for additional information and shall promptly provide to Parent copies of all correspondence between the Company and/or any of its Representatives and the SEC with respect to the Proxy Statement, Schedule 13E-3 or any Other Required Company Filing. The Company and Parent shall each use its reasonable best efforts to promptly provide responses to the SEC with respect to all comments received in respect of the Proxy Statement or Schedule 13E-3 by the SEC and the Company shall cause the definitive Proxy Statement and Schedule 13E-3 to be mailed as promptly as reasonably practicable (and in any event no later than five Business Days) after the date the SEC staff advises that it has no further comments thereon or that the Company may commence mailing the Proxy Statement and Schedule 13E-3 (the “SEC Clearance Date”); provided that on the 10th calendar day after the filing of the preliminary Proxy Statement and Schedule 13E-3 if the SEC has not affirmatively notified the Company during such period that it will or will not be reviewing the Proxy Statement or Schedule 13E-3, then the Company shall contact the SEC on such date regarding the preliminary Proxy Statement and Schedule 13E-3 and if no response is received from the SEC then the second Business Day after such contact will be deemed the SEC Clearance Date. If necessary in order to comply with applicable securities Laws after the Proxy Statement and Schedule 13E-3 shall have been so disseminated, the Company shall disseminate as soon as practicable amended, supplemental or supplemented proxy material, and if required in connection therewith, re-solicit proxies.

(b) Cooperation.

Subject to applicable Laws relating to the exchange of information, and subject to reasonable confidentiality considerations, Parent and the Company shall have the right to review in advance and, to the extent practicable, each will consult with the other on and consider in good faith the views of the other in connection with, all of the information relating to Parent or the Company, as the case may be, and any of their respective Subsidiaries, that appears in any filing made with, or written materials submitted to, any third party and/or any Governmental Entity in connection with the Merger and the Transactions. In exercising the foregoing rights, each of the Company and Parent shall act reasonably and as promptly as practicable.

(c) Information. Subject to applicable Laws, the Company and Parent each shall, upon request by the other, furnish the other with all information concerning itself, its respective Subsidiaries, directors, officers and stockholders and such other matters as may be reasonably necessary or advisable in connection with the Proxy Statement or any other statement, filing, notice or application made by or on behalf of Parent, the Company or any of their respective Subsidiaries to any third party and/or any Governmental Entity in connection with the Merger, and shall provide the other party with final copies of any filings made with a Governmental Entity, with the exception of material responsive to a request for additional information from Government Antitrust Entities.

Subject to applicable Laws and the instructions of any Governmental Entity, the Company and Parent each shall keep the other apprised of the status of matters relating to completion of the Merger, including promptly furnishing the other with copies of notices or other communications received by Parent or the Company, as the case may be, or any of the Company’s Subsidiaries, from any third party and/or any Governmental Entity with respect to the Merger and the Transactions. Neither the Company nor Parent shall permit any of its officers or any other Representatives to participate in any meeting or substantive telephone discussion with any Governmental Entity in respect of any filings, investigation or other inquiry with respect to the Merger unless, to the extent practicable, (i) it consults with the other party in advance and (ii) to the extent permitted by such Governmental Entity, it gives the other party the opportunity to attend and participate in such meeting or substantive telephone discussion.

(e) Regulatory Matters.

(iii) the prompt use of its reasonable best efforts to take, in the event that any permanent, preliminary or temporary injunction, decision, order, judgment, determination, decree or Law is entered, issued or enacted, or becomes reasonably foreseeable to be entered, issued or enacted, in any proceeding, review or inquiry of any kind that would make consummation of the Transactions in accordance with the terms of this Agreement unlawful or that would delay, restrain, prevent, enjoin or otherwise prohibit consummation of the Transactions, any and all steps (including, without limitation, the appeal thereof, the posting of a bond or the taking of the steps contemplated by clause (ii) of this paragraph (e)) necessary to resist, vacate, modify, reverse, suspend, prevent, eliminate, avoid or remove such actual, anticipated or threatened injunction, decision, order, judgment, determination, decree or enactment so as to permit such consummation on a schedule as close as possible to that contemplated by this Agreement.

Section 5.10 Directors and Officers Exculpation, Indemnification and Insurance.

(a) Existing Agreements and Protections. During the period commencing at the Effective Time and ending on the sixth anniversary of the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries shall (and Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries to) honor and fulfill in all respects the obligations of the Company and the Company’s Subsidiaries under any and all indemnification agreements between the Company or any of the Company’s Subsidiaries and any of their respective current or former directors and officers and any person who becomes a director or officer of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries prior to the Effective Time (the “Indemnified Persons”). In addition, during the period commencing at the Effective Time and ending on the sixth (6th) anniversary of the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries shall (and Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries to) cause the certificates of incorporation and bylaws (and other similar organizational documents) of the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries to contain provisions with respect to indemnification, exculpation and the advancement of expenses with respect to acts, errors, omissions and service prior to the Effective Time that are at least as favorable as the indemnification, exculpation and advancement of expenses provisions set forth in the certificate of incorporation and bylaws (or other similar organizational documents) of the Company and the Company’s Subsidiaries as of the Agreement Date, and during such six-year period such provisions shall not be repealed, amended or otherwise modified in any manner except as required by applicable Law; provided, that the Company and Parent hereby agree that the provisions of the Certificate of Incorporation of the Surviving Corporation satisfy the requirements of this sentence with respect to the certificate of incorporation of the Company.

(b) Indemnification. Without limiting the generality of the provisions of Section 5.9(a), during the period commencing at the Effective Time and ending on the sixth anniversary of the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation shall (and Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to) indemnify and hold harmless each Indemnified Person to the extent currently provided for in the Company Charter Documents from and against any costs, fees and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and investigation expenses), judgments, fines, losses, claims, damages, liabilities and amounts paid in settlement in connection with any claim, proceeding, investigation or inquiry, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, to the extent such claim, proceeding, investigation or inquiry arises directly or indirectly out of or pertains directly or indirectly to (i) any action or omission or alleged action or omission in such Indemnified Person’s capacity as a director, officer, employee or agent

of the Company or any of the Company’s Subsidiaries or other Affiliates (regardless of whether such action or omission, or alleged action or omission, occurred prior to, at or after the Effective Time), or (ii) any of the Transactions; provided, however, that if, at any time prior to the sixth anniversary of the Effective Time, any Indemnified Person delivers to Parent a written notice asserting a claim for indemnification under this Section 5.10(b), then the claim asserted in such notice shall survive the sixth anniversary of the Effective Time until such time as such claim is fully and finally resolved. In the event of any such claim, proceeding, investigation or inquiry, (i) the Surviving Corporation shall have the right to control the defense thereof after the Effective Time, (ii) each Indemnified Person shall be entitled to retain his or her own counsel, whether or not the Surviving Corporation shall elect to control the defense of any such claim, proceeding, investigation or inquiry, (iii) the Surviving Corporation shall pay all reasonable fees and expenses of any counsel retained by an Indemnified Person promptly after statements therefor are received, whether or not the Surviving Corporation shall elect to control the defense of any such claim, proceeding, investigation or inquiry, and (iv) no Indemnified Person shall be liable for any settlement effected without his or her prior express written consent. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Section 5.10(b) or elsewhere in this Agreement, neither the Surviving Corporation nor any of its Affiliates (including Parent) shall settle or otherwise compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment or otherwise seek termination with respect to any claim, proceeding, investigation or inquiry for which indemnification may be sought by an Indemnified Person under this Agreement unless such settlement, compromise, consent or termination includes an unconditional release of all Indemnified Persons from all liability arising out of such claim, proceeding, investigation or inquiry; provided, that undertakings consistent with Section 145(e) of the DGCL shall be provided by an Indemnified Person to the extent required or permitted by applicable Law or the governing documents of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries.

(c) Insurance. During the period commencing at the Effective Time and ending on the sixth anniversary of the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation shall (and Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to) maintain in effect the Company’s current directors’ and officers’ liability insurance (“D&O Insurance”) in respect of acts or omissions occurring at or prior to the Effective Time, covering each person covered by the D&O Insurance, on terms with respect to the coverage and amounts that are equivalent to those of the D&O Insurance. Prior to the Effective Time, notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, the Company may purchase a six-year “tail” prepaid policy on the D&O Insurance. In the event that the Company elects to purchase such a “tail” policy prior to the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation shall (and Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to) maintain such “tail” policy in full force and effect and continue to honor their respective obligations thereunder, in lieu of all other obligations of the Surviving Corporation (and Parent) under the first sentence of this Section 5.9(c) for so long as such “tail” policy shall be maintained in full force and effect. In satisfying its obligations under this Section 5.10(c), the Surviving Corporation shall not be obligated to pay annual premiums in excess of three hundred percent (300%) of the amount paid by the Company for coverage for its last full fiscal year (such three hundred percent (300%) amount, the “Maximum Annual Premium”); provided that if the annual premiums of such insurance coverage exceed such amount, the Surviving Corporation shall be obligated to obtain a policy with the greatest coverage available for a cost not exceeding the Maximum Annual Premium.

(d) Successors and Assigns. If the Surviving Corporation (or Parent) or any of its successors or assigns shall (i) consolidate with or merge into any other Person and shall not be the continuing or surviving corporation or entity of such consolidation or merger, or (ii) transfer all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any Person, 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 of the Surviving Corporation (or Parent) set forth in this Section 5.90.

(e) No Impairment; Third Party Beneficiaries. The obligations set forth in this Section 5.9 shall not be terminated, amended or otherwise modified in any manner that adversely affects any Indemnified Person (or any other person who is a beneficiary under the D&O Insurance or the “tail” policy referred to in Section 5.9(c) (and their heirs and representatives)) without the prior written consent of such affected Indemnified Person or other person who is a beneficiary under the D&O Insurance or the “tail” policy referred to in Section 5.9(c) (and their heirs and representatives). Each of the Indemnified Persons or other persons who are beneficiaries under the D&O Insurance or the “tail” policy referred to in Section 5.9(c) (and their heirs and representatives) are intended to be third party beneficiaries of this Section 5.9, with full rights of enforcement as if a party thereto. The rights of the Indemnified Persons (and other persons who are beneficiaries under the D&O Insurance or the “tail” policy referred to in Section 5.9(c) (and their heirs and representatives)) under this Section 5.9 shall be in addition to, and not in substitution for, any other rights that such persons may have under the certificates of incorporation, bylaws or other equivalent organizational documents, any and all indemnification agreements of or entered into by the Company or any of the Company’s Subsidiaries, or applicable Law (whether at law or in equity).

(f) Joint and Several Obligations. The obligations and liability of the Surviving Corporation, Parent and their respective Subsidiaries under this Section 5.9 shall be joint and several.

(g) Preservation of Other Rights. Nothing in this Agreement is intended to, shall be construed to or shall release, waive or impair any rights to directors’ and officers’ insurance claims under any policy that is or has been in existence with respect to the Company or any of the Company’s Subsidiaries for any of their respective directors, officers or other employees, it being understood and agreed that the indemnification provided for in this Section 5.9 is not prior to or in substitution for any such claims under such policies.

Section 5.11 Transaction Litigation. Prior to the earlier of the Effective Time or the date of termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 7.1, the Company shall promptly notify Parent of all Legal Proceedings commenced or threatened in writing against the Company or any of the Company’s Subsidiaries, in each case in connection with, arising from or otherwise relating to the Merger or any other transaction contemplated by this Agreement (“Transaction Litigation”) (including by providing copies of all pleadings and other documentation with respect thereto) and thereafter keep Parent reasonably informed with respect to the status thereof. The Company shall (a) give Parent the opportunity to participate in the defense, settlement or prosecution of any Transaction Litigation; and (b) consult with Parent with respect to the defense, settlement and prosecution of any Transaction Litigation. Further, the Company may not compromise, settle or come to an arrangement regarding, or agree to compromise, settle or come to an arrangement regarding, any Transaction Litigation unless Parent has consented thereto in writing (which consent will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). For purposes of this Section 5.11, “participate” means that Parent will be kept apprised of proposed strategy and other significant decisions with respect to the Transaction Litigation by the Company (to the extent that the attorney-client privilege between the Company and its counsel is not undermined or otherwise affected), and Parent may offer comments or suggestions with respect to such Transaction Litigation, but will not be afforded any decision-making power or other authority over such Transaction Litigation except for the settlement or compromise consent set forth above.

Section 5.12 Rule 16b-3. Merger Subsidiary, Parent and the Company shall take all such steps as may be reasonably required to cause the Transactions, and any other dispositions of equity securities (including derivative securities) of the Company or acquisitions of equity securities of Parent by each individual who is or will be subject to the reporting requirements of Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act with respect to the Company, to be exempt under Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act.

(c) In the event any Covered Employee first becomes eligible following the Effective Time and in the plan year in which the Effective Time occurs to participate under any employee benefit plan, program, policy, or arrangement of Parent or the Surviving Corporation or any of their respective Subsidiaries that is a health benefit plan (a “Parent Employee Benefit Plan”) Parent shall, or shall cause the Surviving Corporation to use commercially reasonable efforts to: (i) waive any preexisting condition exclusions and waiting periods with respect to participation and coverage requirements applicable to any Covered Employee under any Parent Employee Benefit Plan providing medical, dental, or vision benefits to the same extent such limitation would have been waived or satisfied under the analogous Company Employee Benefit Plan the Covered Employee participated in immediately prior to coverage under the Parent Employee Benefit Plan; and (ii) use commercially reasonable efforts to provide each Covered Employee with credit for any copayments and deductibles paid prior to the Covered Employee’s coverage under any Parent Employee Benefit Plan providing medical, dental or vision benefits during the calendar year in which the Effective Time occurs in which such amount was paid, to the same extent such credit was given under the analogous Company Employee Benefit Plan that the Covered Employee participated in immediately prior to coverage under the Parent Employee Benefit Plan, in satisfying any applicable deductible or out-of-pocket requirements under the Parent Employee Benefit Plan.

(d) As of the Effective Time, Parent shall recognize, or shall cause the Surviving Corporation and their respective Subsidiaries to recognize, all service of each Covered Employee prior to the Effective Time, to the Company (or any predecessor entities of the Company or any of the Company’s Subsidiaries) for vesting and eligibility purposes (but not for benefit accrual purposes, except for vacation and severance, as applicable, and not for any purpose under any equity-based plan or arrangement) to the same extent as such Covered Employee was entitled, before the Effective Time, to credit for such service under any similar Company Plan (other than any equity-based plan) in which such Covered Employee participated immediately prior to the Effective Time. In no event shall anything contained in this Section 5.13(d) result in any duplication of benefits or compensation for the same period of service.

(e) Nothing in this Section 5.12 shall (i) be construed to limit the right of Parent or any of its Affiliates (including, following the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation) to amend, modify or terminate any Company Plan, Company Employee Benefit Plan, or other benefit or compensation plan program, policy, contract, agreement or arrangement (ii) be construed to establish or modify or amend benefit or compensation plan, program, agreement or arrangement, (iii) be construed to require Parent or any of its Affiliates (including, following the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation

or any of its Subsidiaries) to retain the employment or service of or provide any particular term or condition of employment or service to any particular Person for any fixed period of time following the Effective Time, or to limit the ability of Parent or any of its Affiliates (including, following the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries) to terminate the employment or service of any Person at any time and for any or no reason, or (iv) be construed to create any rights or remedies including any third party beneficiary rights in any Person not a party to this Agreement.

continuing not to exercise commercially reasonable efforts to cure such breach or inaccuracy (it being understood that Parent and Merger Subsidiary may not terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 7.1(g) if such breach or inaccuracy by the Company is cured within such 30 calendar day period); or

(h) by Parent in the event that (i) the Company Board (or any committee thereof) shall have effected and not withdrawn a Change of Recommendation or (ii) there has been a material and willful breach of Section 5.3; provided, however, that Parent’s right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 7.1(h) will expire at 5:00 p.m., Central time, on the tenth Business Day following the later of the date on which such right to terminate first arose or Parent becomes aware of such right to terminate.

Section 7.2 Notice of Termination. A party terminating this Agreement pursuant to Section 7.1 (other than Section 7.1(a)) shall deliver a written notice to the other party setting forth specific basis for such termination and the specific provision of Section 7.1 pursuant to which this Agreement is being terminated. A valid termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 7.1 (other than Section 7.1(a)) shall be effective upon receipt by the non-terminating party of the foregoing written notice.

Section 7.3 Effect of Termination. In the event of a valid termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 7.1, this Agreement shall be of no further force or effect without liability of any party or parties hereto, as applicable (or any stockholder, director, manager, officer, employee, agent, consultant or representative of such party or parties) to the other party or parties hereto, as applicable, except (a) for the terms of Section 5.8, Section 5.14, Section 7.3, Section 7.4 and Article VIII, each of which shall survive the termination of this Agreement, and (b) that nothing herein shall relieve any party or parties hereto, as applicable, from liability for any fraud committed in connection with this Agreement or any of Transactions. In addition to the foregoing, no termination of this Agreement shall affect the obligations of the parties hereto set forth in the Confidentiality Agreement and the Guarantee, all of which shall survive termination of this Agreement in accordance with their respective terms and remain fully enforceable in accordance with their respective terms.

Section 7.4 Termination Fee.

(a) Company Termination Fee.

(i) In the event that this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 7.1(f), then as a condition to such termination of this Agreement, the Company shall pay to Parent an amount equal to Parent’s reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees and expenses (including legal fees and expenses) incurred by Parent and its Affiliates on or prior to the termination of this Agreement in connection with the Transactions, in an amount not to exceed $2,000,000 (the “Company Termination Fee”) by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account or accounts designated in writing by Parent, upon the closing of the transaction that is the subject of the Superior Proposal.

(ii) The parties hereto acknowledge and hereby agree that in no event shall the Company be required to pay the Company Termination Fee on more than one occasion, whether or not the Company Termination Fee may be payable under more than one provision of this Agreement at the same or at different times and the occurrence of different events.

(b) Acknowledgement. Each of the parties acknowledges and agrees that (i) the agreements contained in this Section 7.4 are an integral part of the Transactions, (ii) the damages resulting from termination of this Agreement under circumstances where a Company Termination Fee is payable are uncertain and incapable of accurate calculation and therefore, the amounts payable pursuant to Section 7.4(a) are not a penalty but rather constitute liquidated damages in a reasonable amount that will

compensate Parent for the efforts and resources expended and opportunities foregone while negotiating this Agreement and in reliance on this Agreement and on the expectation of the consummation of the Transactions, and (iii) without the agreements contained in this Section 7.4, the parties would not have entered into this Agreement.

ARTICLE VIII

MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS

Section 8.1 Amendment or Supplement. Subject to applicable Law, this Agreement may be amended by the parties hereto at any time by execution of an instrument in writing signed on behalf of each of Parent, Merger Subsidiary and the Company; provided, however, that in the event that the adoption of this Agreement has been approved by the stockholders of the Company or by the sole stockholder of Merger Subsidiary in accordance with the DGCL, no amendment shall be made to this Agreement that requires the approval of such stockholders of the Company or of the sole stockholder of Merger Subsidiary without such approval. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Section 5.9 and Section 8.8 may not be modified or amended in a manner that is adverse in any respect to the Debt Financing Source with the written consent of the Debt Financing Source.

Section 8.2 Extension of Time, Waiver, etc. At any time prior to the Effective Time, any party may, subject to applicable Law: (a) waive any inaccuracies in the representations and warranties of any other party hereto; provided, however, that after adoption of this Agreement by the holders of Company Capital Stock (if applicable), no waiver shall be made which would pursuant to applicable Law require further approval by such holders without obtaining such further approval; (b) extend the time for the performance of any of the obligations or acts of any other party hereto; or (c) to the extent permitted by applicable Law, waive compliance by the other party with any of the agreements contained in this Agreement or, except as otherwise provided in the Agreement, waive any of such party’s conditions. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no failure or delay by the Company, Merger Subsidiary or Parent in exercising any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver of rights, nor shall any single or partial exercise of such rights preclude any other or further exercise of such rights or the exercise of any other right hereunder. Any agreement on the part of a party hereto to any such extension or waiver shall be valid only if set forth in an instrument in writing signed on behalf of such party.

Section 8.3 No Additional Representations; No Survival. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, none of the Company, Merger Subsidiary, Parent, their respective Affiliates or their respective Subsidiaries, stockholders, controlling Persons or Representatives shall have any liability or responsibility whatsoever to any other party hereto, its Affiliates or any of their respective Subsidiaries, stockholders, controlling Persons or Representatives on any basis (including in contract or tort, under federal or state securities Laws or otherwise) based upon any information provided or made available, or statements made (or any omissions therefrom), to such party, its Affiliates or any of their respective Subsidiaries, stockholders, controlling Persons or Representatives, including in respect of the specific representations and warranties of the Company set forth in Article III and in respect of the specific representations and warranties of Merger Subsidiary and Parent set forth in Section 3.1, except as and only to the extent expressly set forth in this Agreement with respect to such representations and warranties, subject to the limitations and restrictions contained in this Agreement. None of the representations and warranties in this Agreement or in any instrument delivered pursuant to this Agreement shall survive the earlier of the Closing or the termination of this Agreement. This Section 8.3 shall not limit the survival of any covenant or agreement of the parties hereto contained in this Agreement which by its terms contemplates performance after the earlier of the Closing or the termination of this Agreement.

Section 8.4 Entire Agreement; No Third Party Beneficiary. This Agreement, including the exhibits and annexes hereto, the Company Disclosure Schedules, the documents and instruments relating to the Merger referred to in this Agreement (including the Voting Agreements, the Rollover Agreement, the Guarantee and the Confidentiality Agreement), constitutes the entire agreement, and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, among the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement, provided, however, the Voting Agreements, the Rollover Agreement, the Guarantee and the Confidentiality Agreement shall not be superseded, shall survive any termination of this Agreement and shall continue in full force and effect until the earlier to occur of (a) the Effective Time and (b) the date on which the Voting Agreements, the Rollover Agreement, the Guarantee, or the Confidentiality Agreement, as applicable, is terminated in accordance with its terms. EACH PARTY HERETO AGREES THAT, EXCEPT FOR THE REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES CONTAINED IN THIS AGREEMENT, NEITHER PARENT AND MERGER SUBSIDIARY, ON THE ONE HAND, NOR THE COMPANY, ON THE OTHER HAND, MAKES ANY REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES TO THE OTHER, AND EACH PARTY HEREBY DISCLAIMS ANY OTHER REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, OR AS TO THE ACCURACY OR COMPLETENESS OF ANY OTHER INFORMATION, MADE (OR MADE AVAILABLE) BY ITSELF OR ANY OF ITS REPRESENTATIVES, WITH RESPECT TO, OR IN CONNECTION WITH, THE NEGOTIATION, EXECUTION OR DELIVERY OF THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS, NOTWITHSTANDING THE DELIVERY OR DISCLOSURE TO THE OTHER OR THE OTHER’S REPRESENTATIVES OF ANY DOCUMENTATION OR OTHER INFORMATION WITH RESPECT TO ANY ONE OR MORE OF THE FOREGOING. This Agreement is not intended, and shall not be deemed, to create any agreement of employment with any person, to confer any rights or remedies upon any person other than the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns or to otherwise create any third-party beneficiary hereto, except with respect to the directors and officers of the Company covered by Section 5.9.

Section 8.5 Applicable Law; Jurisdiction; WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL.

(a) THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE DEEMED TO BE MADE IN AND IN ALL RESPECTS SHALL BE INTERPRETED, CONSTRUED AND GOVERNED BY AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH, AND ALL ACTIONS, SUITS AND PROCEEDINGS ARISING IN WHOLE OR IN PART UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE WITHOUT REGARD TO ANY CHOICE OR CONFLICTS OF LAW PROVISION OR RULE THAT WOULD CAUSE THE APPLICATION OF THE LAWS OF ANOTHER JURISDICTION. The parties hereto hereby irrevocably submit to the personal jurisdiction of the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware or, if such Court of Chancery declines to accept jurisdiction over any action, suit or proceeding, the federal courts of the United States of America located in the County of New Castle, Delaware, solely in respect of the interpretation and enforcement of the provisions of (and any claim or cause of action arising under or relating to) this Agreement and of the documents referred to in this Agreement, and in respect of the Transactions, and hereby irrevocably waive, and agree not to assert, as a defense in any action, suit or proceeding for the interpretation or enforcement hereof or of any such document, that it is not subject thereto or that such action, suit or proceeding may not be brought or is not maintainable in said courts or that the venue thereof may not be appropriate or that this Agreement or any such document may not be enforced in or by such courts, and the parties hereto irrevocably agree that all claims relating to such action, proceeding or transactions shall be heard and determined in such courts. The parties hereto hereby consent to and grant any such court jurisdiction over the person of such parties and, to the extent permitted by Law, over the subject matter of such dispute, agree that a final judgment in any such action suit or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any manner provided by Law (provided, however, that nothing in the foregoing shall restrict any party’s rights to seek any post-judgment relief regarding, or any appeal from, a final trial court judgment),

and agree that mailing of process or other papers in connection with any such action or proceeding in the manner provided in Section 8.8 or in such other manner as may be permitted by Law shall be valid and sufficient service thereof.

(b) EACH PARTY ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT ANY CONTROVERSY WHICH MAY ARISE UNDER THIS AGREEMENT IS LIKELY TO INVOLVE COMPLICATED AND DIFFICULT ISSUES, AND THEREFORE EACH SUCH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW ANY RIGHT SUCH PARTY MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS. EACH PARTY HEREBY CERTIFIES AND ACKNOWLEDGES THAT (i) NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER, (ii) EACH PARTY UNDERSTANDS AND HAS CONSIDERED THE IMPLICATIONS OF THIS WAIVER, (iii) EACH PARTY MAKES THIS WAIVER VOLUNTARILY AND (iv) EACH PARTY HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE TRANSACTIONS BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS CONTAINED IN THIS Section 8.5. THE PARTIES AGREE THAT ANY OF THEM MAY FILE A COPY OF THIS PARAGRAPH WITH ANY COURT AS WRITTEN EVIDENCE OF THE KNOWING, VOLUNTARY, AND BARGAINED-FOR AGREEMENT AMONG THE PARTIES HERETO IRREVOCABLY TO WAIVE THEIR RESPECTIVE RIGHTS TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTIONS, SUIT OR PROCEEDING WHATSOEVER BETWEEN OR AMONG THEM RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS.

(c) The parties hereto agree that irreparable damage for which monetary damages, even if available, would not be an adequate remedy would occur in the event that the parties hereto do not perform the provisions of this Agreement (including any party hereto failing to take such actions as are required of it hereunder in order to consummate this Agreement) in accordance with its specified terms or otherwise breach such provisions. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that, subject to Section 7.4, (A) the parties hereto will be entitled, in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity, to an injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief to prevent breaches (or threatened breaches) of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof; (B) the provisions of Section 7.4 are not intended to and do not adequately compensate the Company, on the one hand, or Parent and Merger Subsidiary, on the other hand, for the harm that would result from a breach of this Agreement, and will not be construed to diminish or otherwise impair in any respect any party’s right to an injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief; and (C) the right of specific enforcement is an integral part of the Transactions and without that right, neither the Company nor Parent would have entered into this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Company shall be entitled to seek specific performance to and to cause Parent or Merger Subsidiary to consummate the Merger on the terms and subject to the conditions in this Agreement, if, and only if, (A) all conditions set forth in Section 6.1 and Section 6.2 (other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing, provided that such conditions are reasonably capable of being satisfied) have been satisfied or waived, and (B) the Company has irrevocably confirmed in a written notice to Parent that (1) all of the conditions set forth in Section 6.1 and Section 6.2 (other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing, provided that such conditions are reasonably capable of being satisfied) have been satisfied or waived, and (2) if specific performance is granted, then the Closing will occur.

(d) Each party hereto acknowledges and agrees that the rights to an injunction, specific performance or other equitable remedy contemplated herein are an integral part of the

Transactions and without such right, none of the parties hereto would have entered into this Agreement. The parties hereto hereby agree not to raise any objections to the availability of the equitable remedy of specific performance to prevent or restrain breaches or threatened breaches of this Agreement by any party hereto, and to specifically enforce the terms and provisions of this Agreement to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of, or to enforce compliance with, the covenants and obligations of any party under this Agreement. Any party hereto seeking an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement will not be required to provide any bond or other security in connection with such injunction or enforcement, and each party hereto irrevocably waives any right that it may have to require the obtaining, furnishing or posting of any such bond or other security. The parties hereto further agree that (i) by seeking the remedies provided for in this Section 8.5, a party hereto shall not in any respect waive its right to seek any other form of relief that may be available to a party under this Agreement in the event that this Agreement has been terminated or in the event that the remedies provided for in this Section 8.5 are not available or otherwise are not granted, and (ii) nothing set forth in this Section 8.5 shall require any party hereto to institute any proceeding for (or limit any party’s right to institute any proceeding for) specific performance under this Section 8.5 prior or as a condition to exercising any termination right under Article VII (and pursuing damages after such termination), nor shall the commencement of any legal proceeding pursuant to this Section 8.5 or anything set forth in this Section 8.5 restrict or limit any party’s right to terminate this Agreement in accordance with the terms of Article VII or pursue any other remedies under this Agreement that may be available then or thereafter.

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, to the extent any party hereto brings an action, suit or proceeding to enforce specifically the performance of the terms and provisions of this Agreement (other than an action to specifically enforce any provision that expressly survives termination of this Agreement) when expressly available to such party pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, the Termination Date shall automatically be extended to (i) the twentieth (20th) business day following the resolution of such action, suit or proceeding, or (ii) such other time period established by the court presiding over such action, suit or proceeding.

(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, in the event that the Company pursues the collection of damages from Parent, Merger Subsidiary or any of their Affiliates, in connection with this Agreement or the Transactions (other than for fraud), (i) the parties hereto agree that such damages shall not in any event be in excess of the amount of the aggregate Merger Consideration, (ii) the receipt of such damages shall be the Company’s sole and exclusive remedy under this Agreement and shall be deemed to be liquidated damages for any and all losses or damages suffered or incurred by the Company or any of its Affiliates in connection with this Agreement (and the termination hereof), the transactions contemplated hereby (and the abandonment thereof) or any matter forming the basis for such termination, (iii) notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Company shall no longer be entitled to seek specific performance pursuant to this Section 8.5 and (iv) none of the Company nor any of its Affiliates shall be entitled to bring or maintain any other Legal Proceeding against Parent, Merger Subsidiary or any of their respective Affiliates arising out of this Agreement, any of the transactions contemplated hereby or any matters forming the basis for such damages claim and the Company shall cause any such Legal Proceeding brought by the Company or its Affiliates, and shall use its commercially reasonable efforts (which shall be understood not to include the payment of any out-of-pocket monies or the agreement to any material undertaking) to cause any Legal Proceeding brought by any other Person, to be dismissed with prejudice promptly (or not undertaken, as applicable) and in any event within three Business Days from the payment of such damages. Nothing in this Section 8.5(f) shall limit or restrict the right or ability of the Company to pursue its rights under Section 8.6.

Section 8.6 Attorneys’ Fees. In any action at law or suit in equity to enforce this Agreement or the rights of any of the parties hereunder, the prevailing party in such action or suit shall be entitled to receive a reasonable sum for its attorneys’ fees and all other reasonable costs and expenses incurred in such action or suit.

Section 8.7 Assignment. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations hereunder shall be assigned by any of the parties hereto, in whole or in part (whether by operation of law or otherwise), without the prior written consent of the other parties, and any attempt to make any such assignment without such consent shall be null and void, except that Merger Subsidiary may assign, in its sole discretion, any or all of its rights, interests and obligations under this Agreement to any one or more direct or indirect wholly owned Subsidiaries of Parent without the consent of the Company, but no such assignment shall relieve Merger Subsidiary of any of its obligations under this Agreement. Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement will be binding upon, inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns.

Section 8.8 Certain Provisions Regarding Debt Financing Sources. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, each of the parties hereto: (i) agrees that it will not bring or support any person in any action, suit, proceeding, cause of action, claim, cross-claim or third-party claim of any kind or description, whether in law or in equity, whether in contract or in tort or otherwise, against any of the Debt Financing Sources (which defined term for the purposes of this provision shall include the Debt Financing Sources and their respective affiliates, equityholders, members, partners, officers, directors, employees, agents, advisors, representatives, successors or assigns of the foregoing) in any way relating to this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including, but not limited to, any dispute arising out of or relating in any way to the executed commitment letter and fee letter, dated as of the date hereof, from the Debt Financing Sources (collectively, the “Debt Commitment Letter”) or the performance thereof or the Debt Financing contemplated thereby, in any forum other than the federal and New York state courts located in the Borough of Manhattan within the City of New York; (ii) agrees that, except as specifically set forth in the Debt Commitment Letter, all claims or causes of action (whether at law, in equity, in contract, in tort or otherwise) against any of the Debt Financing Sources in any way relating to this Agreement, the Debt Commitment Letter or the performance thereof or the financings contemplated thereby, shall be exclusively governed by, and construed in accordance with, the internal laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to principles or rules or conflict of laws to the extent such principles or rules would require or permit the application of laws of another jurisdiction; and (iii) hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives any right such party may have to a trial by jury in respect of any litigation (whether in law or in equity, whether in contract or in tort or otherwise) directly or indirectly arising out of or relating in any way to this Agreement, the Debt Commitment Letter or the performance thereof or the financings contemplated thereby. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, (a) the Company and its subsidiaries, affiliates, directors, officers, employees, agents, partners, managers, members or stockholders shall not have any rights or claims against any Debt Financing Sources in any way relating to this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, or in respect of any, or in respect of any oral representations made or alleged to have been made in connection herewith or therewith, including any dispute arising out of or relating in any way to the Debt Commitment Letter or the performance thereof or the financings contemplated thereby, whether at law or equity, in contract, in tort or otherwise and (b) no Debt Financing Source shall have any liability (whether in contract, in tort or otherwise) to any of the Company or its subsidiaries, affiliates, directors, officers, employees, agents, partners, managers, members or stockholders for any obligations or liabilities of any party hereto under this Agreement or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby or in respect of any oral representations made or alleged to have been made in connection herewith or therewith, including any dispute arising out of or relating in any way to the Debt Commitment Letter or the performance thereof or the financings contemplated thereby, whether at law or equity, in contract, in tort or otherwise. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Debt Financing Sources are intended third-party beneficiaries of, may enforce, and shall be entitled to the protections of this Section 8.8.

If a final judgment of a court of competent

jurisdiction declares that any term or provision of this Agreement is invalid or unenforceable, the parties hereto agree that the court making such determination shall have the power to limit such term or provision, to delete specific words or phrases or to replace such term or provision with a term or provision that is valid and enforceable and that comes closest to expressing the intention of the invalid or unenforceable term or provision, and this Agreement shall be valid and enforceable as so modified. In the event such court does not exercise the power granted to it in the prior sentence, the parties hereto agree to replace such invalid or unenforceable term or provision with a valid and enforceable term or provision that will achieve, to the extent possible, the economic, business and other purposes of such invalid or unenforceable term or provision.
