(b) Parent and Merger Subsidiary expressly reserve the right to waive (in whole or in part) any of the Offer Conditions at any time and to make any change in the terms of or conditions to the Offer, including raising the Offer Price; provided that, without the prior written consent of the Company, neither Parent nor Merger Subsidiary shall:

(ii) decrease the Offer Price;

(iii) change the form of consideration to be paid in the Offer;

(iv) decrease the number of Shares sought in the Offer;

(c) Unless extended as provided in this Agreement, the Offer shall initially be scheduled to expire on the date that is twenty (20) Business Days (calculated as set forth in Rule 14d-1(g)(3) under the 1900 Xxx) after the Offer Commencement Date (such initial expiration date of the Offer or such subsequent date to which the expiration of the Offer is extended in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the “Expiration Date”); provided that, unless

otherwise agreed in writing by the Parties, such initial Expiration Date shall not be a date that is within five (5) Business Days after the date of a regularly scheduled payroll run of the Company. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, but subject to the parties’ respective termination rights under Article 7, (i) Merger Subsidiary shall, and Parent shall cause it to, extend the Offer for any period required by any rule, regulation, interpretation or position of the SEC or the staff thereof or Nasdaq applicable to the Offer or for any period otherwise required by Applicable Law, (ii) if, as of the then-scheduled Expiration Date, any Offer Condition is not satisfied and has not been waived, then, at the request of the Company, Merger Subsidiary shall, and Parent shall cause it to, extend the Offer for one (1) or more periods of up to ten (10) Business Days per extension to permit such Offer Condition to be satisfied or waived and (iii) if, as of the then-scheduled Expiration Date, any Offer Condition is not satisfied and has not been waived, Parent may, in its sole discretion (and without the consent of the Company or any other Person), extend the Offer (up to the End Date but not thereafter) on one or more occasions, for an additional period of up to ten (10) Business Days per extension, to permit such Offer Condition to be satisfied; provided that, unless otherwise agreed in writing by the Parties, no such extended Expiration Date shall be a date that is within five (5) Business Days after the date of a regularly scheduled payroll run of the Company. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.01(c), in no event shall Merger Subsidiary be required or permitted to extend the Offer beyond the End Date. The Offer may be terminated prior to its then-scheduled Expiration Date, but only if this Agreement is validly terminated in accordance with Article 10.

(d) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement and to the satisfaction or waiver by Merger Subsidiary or Parent of the Offer Conditions, Merger Subsidiary shall, and Parent shall cause it to, promptly after the expiration of the Offer, accept for payment all Shares validly tendered and not withdrawn pursuant to the Offer (the time at which Shares are first accepted for payment under the Offer, the “Acceptance Time”). The obligation of Merger Subsidiary to accept for payment Shares tendered pursuant to the Offer shall be subject only to the satisfaction or waiver of each of the Offer Conditions (and shall not be subject to any other conditions). Promptly after the Acceptance Time, Merger Subsidiary shall pay the Offer Price for such Shares.

(e) On the Offer Commencement Date, Parent and Merger Subsidiary shall (i) file or cause to be filed with the SEC a tender offer statement on Schedule TO with respect to the Offer (together with all amendments and supplements thereto and including exhibits thereto, the “Schedule TO”) that shall include the summary term sheet required thereby and, as exhibits, the Offer, a form of letter of transmittal, a form of summary advertisement and any schedule or form required to be filed pursuant to the Instructions to Schedule TO (collectively, and together with any amendments or supplements thereto, the “Offer Documents”) and (ii) cause the Offer Documents to be disseminated to beneficial owners of Shares to the extent required by Applicable Law (including the 1934 Act). The Offer shall be conducted in compliance with Applicable Law (including the 1934 Act).

(f) Parent and Merger Subsidiary shall cause the Offer Documents to (i) comply with the applicable requirements of the 1934 Act and (ii) not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not

misleading; provided, however, no covenant is made by Parent or Merger Subsidiary with respect to information supplied by the Company for inclusion in the Offer Documents. Parent and Merger Subsidiary shall cause the information supplied by Parent and its Affiliates specifically for inclusion in the Company’s Solicitation/Recommendation Statement on Schedule 14D-9 (together with any amendments or supplements thereto, the “Schedule 14D-9”) at the time the Schedule 14D-9 is filed with the SEC not to contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. The Company shall promptly furnish to Merger Subsidiary and Parent in writing all information concerning the Company and its stockholders that may be required by Applicable Law to be set forth in the Offer Documents or reasonably requested in connection with any action contemplated by Section 2.01(e) or this Section 2.01(f). The Company and its counsel shall be given reasonable opportunity to review and comment on the Offer Documents prior to the filing thereof with the SEC, and Merger Subsidiary and Parent shall give reasonable and good faith consideration to any comments made by Company and its counsel. Each of Parent, Merger Subsidiary and the Company agrees promptly to correct any information provided by it for use in the Offer Documents if and to the extent that such information shall have become false or misleading in any material respect or as otherwise required by Applicable Law. Parent and Merger Subsidiary further agree to cause the Offer Documents as so corrected (if applicable) to be filed with the SEC and disseminated to holders of Shares, in each case as and to the extent required by applicable federal securities laws (including the 1934 Act). The Company and its counsel shall be given a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on the Schedule TO and the other Offer Documents each time before any such document is filed with the SEC, and Parent and Merger Subsidiary shall give reasonable and good faith consideration to any comments made by the Company and its counsel. Parent and Merger Subsidiary shall provide the Company and its counsel with (i) any comments or other communications, whether written or oral, that Parent, Merger Subsidiary or their counsel may receive from time to time from the SEC or its staff with respect to the Schedule TO or other Offer Documents promptly after receipt of those comments or other communications and (ii) a reasonable opportunity to participate in the response of Parent and Merger Subsidiary to those comments and to provide comments on that response (to which reasonable and good faith consideration shall be given), including by participating with Parent and Merger Subsidiary or their counsel in any material discussions or meetings with the SEC.

(g) Subject in all respects to the other terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Offer Conditions, Parent shall cause to be provided to Merger Subsidiary on a timely basis all of the funds necessary to purchase any Shares that Merger Subsidiary becomes obligated to purchase pursuant to the Offer, and shall cause Merger Subsidiary to perform, on a timely basis, all of Merger Subsidiary’s obligations under this Agreement.

Section 2.02 Company Action. (a) The Company hereby consents to the Offer and represents that the board of directors of the Company (the “Board of Directors”), at a meeting duly called and held, has (i) determined that this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, including the Offer and the Merger, are fair to and in the best interests of the Company’s stockholders, (ii) approved this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, including the Offer and the Merger, in accordance with the requirements of Delaware Law and (iii) resolved, subject to Section 6.04 herein, to recommend acceptance of the Offer and

approval and adoption of this Agreement by its stockholders, in each case by a majority vote with one dissenting vote (such recommendation, the “Company Board Recommendation”). The Company has been advised that, with the exception of Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxxx, all of its directors and executive officers who own Shares intend to tender their Shares pursuant to the Offer. The Company shall promptly cause to be furnished to Parent a list of its stockholders, mailing labels and any available listing and computer files containing the names and addresses of all record holders and non-objecting beneficial owners of Shares and lists of securities positions of Shares held in stock depositories, in each case true and correct as of the most recent practicable date, and shall provide to Parent such additional information (including updated lists of stockholders, mailing labels and lists of securities positions) and such other assistance as Parent may reasonably request in connection with the Offer. Subject to Applicable Law, and except for such steps as are necessary to disseminate the Offer Documents and any other documents necessary to consummate the Merger, Parent, Merger Subsidiary and their Affiliates, associates, agents and advisors, shall keep such information confidential and use the information contained in any such labels, listings and files only in connection with the Offer and the Merger and, should the Offer terminate or if this Agreement shall be terminated, shall, upon request, deliver to the Company or destroy (and confirm such destruction in writing) all copies of such information then in their possession.

(b) On the Offer Commencement Date, the Company shall file with the SEC and disseminate to holders of Shares, in each case as and to the extent required by Applicable Law (including the 1934 Act), the Schedule 14D-9 that, subject to its right to withdraw, modify or amend such recommendation pursuant to Section 6.04(d), shall contain and reflect the Company Board Recommendation. The Company shall include in the Schedule 14D-9 the opinion of the Company’s financial advisor and shall cause the Schedule 14D-9 to (i) comply with the applicable requirements of the 1934 Act and (ii) not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; provided, however, no covenant is made by the Company with respect to information supplied by Parent or Merger Subsidiary for inclusion in the Schedule 14D-9 (including any such information included in the Information Statement). The Company shall cause the information supplied by it specifically for inclusion in the Offer Documents, at the respective times the Offer Documents are filed with the SEC, not to contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. Each of the Company, Parent and Merger Subsidiary agrees promptly to correct any information provided by it for use in the Schedule 14D-9 (including the Information Statement) if and to the extent that it shall have become false or misleading in any material respect. The Company shall cause the Schedule 14D-9 as so corrected to be filed with the SEC and to be disseminated to beneficial owners of Shares, in each case as and to the extent required by Applicable Law (including the 1934 Act). Prior to an Adverse Recommendation Change in accordance with Section 6.04(d), Parent, Merger Subsidiary and their counsel shall be given a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on the Schedule 14D-9 each time before it is filed with the SEC, and the Company shall give reasonable and good faith consideration to any comments made by Parent, Merger Subsidiary and their counsel. Prior to an Adverse Recommendation Change in accordance with Section 6.04(d), the Company shall provide Parent, Merger Subsidiary and their counsel with (i) any comments or other communications, whether

written or oral, that the Company or its counsel may receive from time to time from the SEC or its staff with respect to the Schedule 14D-9 promptly after receipt of those comments or other communications, (ii) copies of any written comments or responses submitted by the Company in response thereto (other than any confidential supplemental materials that may have been requested by the SEC or its staff) and (iii) a reasonable opportunity to participate in the Company’s response to those comments and to provide comments on that response (to which reasonable and good faith consideration shall be given), including by participating with the Company or its counsel in any material discussions or meetings with the SEC. The Company shall respond as promptly as practicable to any comments of the SEC or its staff with respect to the Schedule 14D-9.

Section 3.01 The Merger. (a) Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, at the Effective Time, Merger Subsidiary shall be merged (the “Merger”) with and into the Company in accordance with Delaware Law, whereupon the separate existence of Merger Subsidiary shall cease, and the Company shall be the surviving corporation (the “Surviving Corporation”).

The date on which the Merger Closing actually occurs is referred to as the “Closing Date.”

(c) At the Merger Closing, the Company and Merger Subsidiary shall file a certificate of merger in customary form and substance with the Delaware Secretary of State in accordance with the applicable provisions of Delaware Law and make all other filings or recordings required by Delaware Law in connection with the Merger. The Merger shall become effective at such time as the certificate of merger is duly filed with and accepted for record by the Delaware Secretary of State (the time of such filing and acceptance for record by the Delaware Secretary of State or at such later time as may be mutually agreed in writing by Parent, Merger Subsidiary and the Company and specified in the certificate of merger, the “Effective Time”).

(d) 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 obligations, liabilities, restrictions and disabilities of the Company and Merger Subsidiary, all as provided under Delaware Law.

(e) The Merger shall be governed by and effected under Section 251(h) of Delaware Law, without a vote of the stockholders of the Company. Subject to the terms and conditions

contained in this Agreement, the parties agree to take all necessary and appropriate action to cause the Merger to become effective as soon as practicable following the consummation (within the meaning of Section 251(h) of Delaware Law) of the Offer, without a vote of the stockholders of the Company in accordance with Section 251(h) of Delaware Law.

(f) The certificate of incorporation of the Merger Subsidiary in effect at the Effective Time shall be the certificate of incorporation of the Surviving Corporation until amended in accordance with Applicable Law.

(g) The bylaws of the Merger Subsidiary in effect at the Effective Time shall be the bylaws of the Surviving Corporation until amended in accordance with Applicable Law.

(h) From and after the Effective Time, until successors are duly elected or appointed and qualified in accordance with Applicable Law, (i) the directors of Merger Subsidiary at the Effective Time shall be the directors of the Surviving Corporation and (ii) the officers of the Company at the Effective Time shall be the officers of Merger Subsidiary.

Section 3.02 Conversion of Shares. At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any further action on the part of Merger Subsidiary, Parent, the Company or any stockholder of the Company:

(a) Except as otherwise provided in Section 3.02(b), Section 3.02(c) or Section 3.04, each Share outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into the right to receive the Offer Price in cash, without interest (the “Merger Consideration”), on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, upon surrender of Certificates or Uncertificated Shares in accordance with Section 3.03. As of the Effective Time, all such Shares shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be canceled and retired and shall cease to exist, and shall thereafter represent only the right to receive the Merger Consideration.

(b) Each Share held by the Company as treasury stock or owned by Parent or Merger Subsidiary immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be canceled and retired and shall cease to exist, and no payment shall be made with respect thereto.

(c) Each Share held by any Subsidiary of either the Company or Parent (other than the Merger Subsidiary) immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be canceled and retired and shall cease to exist, and no payment shall be made with respect thereto.

(d) Each share of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of Merger Subsidiary outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into and become one (1) validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable share of common stock 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 3.03 Surrender and Payment. (a) On or prior to the Acceptance Time, Parent shall appoint a bank or trust company or similar entity reasonably acceptable to the Company which is authorized to exercise corporate trust or stock powers to act as paying agent with respect to the Offer and exchange agent in the Merger (the “Exchange Agent”) for the purpose

of paying for the shares tendered in the Offer at the Offer Price or exchanging for the Merger Consideration (i) certificates representing Shares (the “Certificates”) or (ii) uncertificated Shares (the “Uncertificated Shares”). At the Effective Time or as promptly as practicable thereafter (but in no event later than 9:00 a.m., New York City time, on the Business Day following the Acceptance Time), Parent shall provide the Exchange Agent funds representing the aggregate Merger Consideration to be paid in respect of the Certificates and the Uncertificated Shares pursuant to Section 3.02(a) (the “Exchange Fund”); provided, that the Company shall, at the request of Parent, deposit with the Exchange Agent at the Effective Time (or as promptly as practicable thereafter) a portion of such aggregate Merger Consideration and/or consideration to be paid for Shares accepted for purchase in the Offer, from the Company’s Cash on Hand as specified in such request. The Exchange Agent shall cause the Exchange Fund to be (i) held for the benefit of the holders of Shares and (ii) promptly applied to making the payments for the shares tendered in the Offer provided for in Section 3.02(a). The Exchange Fund shall not be used for any purpose that is not provided for herein. The Exchange Agent shall invest any cash included in the Exchange Fund, in direct obligations of the United States of America, obligations for which the full faith and credit of the United States of America is pledged to provide for the payment of all principal and interest, or as otherwise directed by Parent. Any interest and other income resulting from such investments shall be kept in the Exchange Fund. To the extent that there are losses with respect to such investments, or the Exchange Fund diminishes for other reasons below the level required to make prompt payments of the Merger Consideration as contemplated hereby, Parent shall promptly replace or restore the portion of the Exchange Fund lost through investments or other events so as to ensure that the Exchange Fund is, at all times, maintained at a level sufficient to make such payments. Any interest or other income resulting from the investment of such funds shall be the property of Parent.

(b) Promptly after the Effective Time (and in any event within three (3) Business Days), Parent shall send, or shall cause the Exchange Agent to send, to each holder of Shares at the Effective Time a letter of transmittal and instructions (which shall specify that the delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title shall pass, only upon proper delivery of the Certificates or transfer of the Uncertificated Shares to the Exchange Agent) for use in such exchange. Each holder of Shares that have been converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration shall be entitled to receive, upon (i) surrender to the Exchange Agent of a Certificate, 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, or, in each case, such other documents as may be reasonably required by the Exchange Agent or Parent, the Merger Consideration payable for each Share represented by a Certificate or for each 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 the Merger Consideration. No interest shall be paid or accrued on the cash payable upon the surrender or transfer of any Certificate or Uncertificated Share.

(c) If any portion of the Merger Consideration is to be paid to a Person other than the Person in whose name the surrendered Certificate or the transferred 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, in the case of Uncertificated Shares,

that such documentation as may be reasonably requested by the Exchange Agent is provided and (ii) the Person requesting such payment shall pay 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. Payment of the applicable Merger Consideration with respect to Uncertificated Shares shall only be made to the Person in whose name such Uncertificated Shares are registered.

(d) At the Effective Time, (i) all Shares issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be automatically canceled and retired and shall cease to exist, and all holders of Certificates representing Shares, and all holders of Uncertificated Shares representing Shares, that were outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall, in each case, cease to have any rights as stockholders of the Company and (ii) the stock transfer books of the Company shall be closed with respect to all Shares outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time. After the Effective Time, there shall be no further registration of transfers of Shares. If, after the Effective Time, Certificates or Uncertificated Shares are presented to the Surviving Corporation, they shall be canceled and exchanged for the Merger Consideration provided for, and in accordance with the procedures set forth in, this Article 3.

(e) Any portion of the Merger Consideration made available to the Exchange Agent pursuant to Section 3.03(a) (and any interest or other income earned thereon) that remains unclaimed by the holders of Shares twelve (12) months after the Effective Time shall be returned to Parent, upon demand, and any such holder who has not exchanged such Shares for the Merger Consideration in accordance with this Section 3.03 prior to that time shall thereafter look only to Parent for payment of the Merger Consideration in respect of such Shares without any interest thereon. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Parent shall not be liable to any holder of Shares for any amount paid to a public official pursuant to applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar laws.

Section 3.04 Dissenting Shares.

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Shares outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and held by a holder who has not voted in favor of the Merger or consented thereto in writing and who has demanded appraisal for such Shares in accordance with Section 262 of Delaware Law (any such shares being referred to as “Dissenting Shares” until such time as such holder effectively withdraws or fails to perfect or otherwise loses such holder’s appraisal rights under Section 262 of Delaware Law with respect to such shares) shall not be converted into or represent the right to receive the Merger Consideration, but shall only be entitled to such rights as are granted by Delaware Law to a holder of Dissenting Shares. At the Effective Time, the Dissenting Shares shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be canceled and shall cease to exist, and each holder of Dissenting Shares shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive the fair value of such Dissenting Shares in accordance with the provisions of Section 262 of Delaware Law.

(b) If any Dissenting Shares shall lose their status as such (through failure to perfect or otherwise), then, as of the later of the Effective Time or the date of loss of such status, such

Shares shall automatically be converted into and shall represent only the right to receive the Merger Consideration in accordance with Section 3.02, without interest thereon, upon surrender of the Certificate representing such Share or transfer of Uncertificated Shares, as the case may be, in accordance with the terms hereof. The Company shall give Parent prompt notice of (i) any demands received by the Company for appraisal of Shares, (ii) any withdrawal or attempted withdrawal of any such demand and (iii) any other demand, notice or instrument delivered to the Company prior to the Effective Time pursuant to Delaware Law. Parent, at its expense, shall have the right to direct all negotiations and proceedings with respect to such demands, so long as Parent does not create obligations for the Company prior to the Effective Time. 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. Each holder of Dissenting Shares who becomes entitled under Section 262 of Delaware Law 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 withholdings or deductions required by Applicable Law (but only after the amount thereof shall have been finally determined pursuant to Delaware Law).

Section 3.05 Company Options, Company RSUs and Company Long-Term Overachievement Awards.

(a) Treatment of Company Options. Effective as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, each Company Option that is outstanding and unexercised shall (i) vest in full and (ii) by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of any holder of any Company Option shall be cancelled immediately prior to the Effective Time and converted into the right to receive an amount in cash equal to the product obtained by multiplying (i) the aggregate number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to such Company Option immediately prior to the Effective Time and (ii) the excess, if any, of the Merger Consideration less the exercise price per share of such Company Option, subject to any applicable withholding or other Taxes required by Applicable Law to be withheld in accordance with Section 3.07 (the “Option Consideration”). Each holder of an outstanding Company Option shall be entitled to receive, in exchange for the cancellation thereof, the Option Consideration, if any, with respect to each share of Company Common Stock subject to such outstanding Company Option and Parent shall cause such payment to be made to the holder of such Company Option through the payroll system of the Surviving Corporation as soon as practicable following the Closing Date (and in no event later than the next regularly scheduled payroll run of the Surviving Corporation following the Closing Date). For the avoidance of doubt, if the exercise price per share of any Company Option, whether vested or unvested as of the Effective Time, is equal to or greater than the Merger Consideration, then by virtue of the occurrence of the Effective Time and without any action on the part of Parent, Merger Subsidiary, the Company or the holders thereof, the Company Option will automatically terminate and be cancelled without payment of any consideration to the holder thereof.

(b) Treatment of Company RSUs. Effective as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, each Company RSU that is outstanding (i) shall automatically become fully vested and the restrictions thereon shall lapse and (ii) by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of any holder of any Company RSU shall be cancelled immediately prior to the Effective Time and converted into the right to receive an amount in cash equal to the product obtained by

multiplying (i) the aggregate number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to such Company RSU immediately prior to the Effective Time and (ii) the Merger Consideration (the “RSU Consideration”). In the event that any Company RSU is subject to Section 409A of the Code, the payment of the amount of cash with respect thereto shall be delayed to the extent necessary to comply with Section 409A of the Code. Subject to the preceding sentence, each holder of an outstanding Company RSU shall be entitled to receive in exchange for the cancellation thereof the RSU Consideration with respect to each share of Company Common Stock subject to such outstanding Company RSU and Parent shall cause such payment to be made to the holder of such Company RSU through the payroll system of the Surviving Corporation as soon as practicable following the Closing Date (and in no event later than the next regularly scheduled payroll run of the Surviving Corporation following the Closing Date).

(c) Treatment of Company Long-Term Overachievement Awards. Effective as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, each Company Long-Term Overachievement Award that is outstanding, by virtue of the occurrence of the Effective Time and without any action on the part of Parent, Merger Subsidiary, the Company or the holders thereof, each Company Long-Term Overachievement Award will automatically terminate and be cancelled without payment of any consideration to the holder thereof.

(d) Necessary Action; Notice. Prior to the Merger, the Company shall take any and all actions reasonably necessary to effectuate the provisions of this Section 3.05, including, without limitation, adopting such resolutions that are necessary for the treatment of Company Options, Company RSUs, and Company Long-Term Overachievement Awards as set forth in this Section 3.05.

(e) Termination of the Company Option Plans. Not later than the Effective Time, the Company shall have terminated the Company Stock Plan and no further Company Common Stock, Company Options, Company RSUs, Company Long-Term Overachievement Awards or other rights with respect to the Company Common Stock shall be granted thereunder.

Section 3.06 Adjustments. If, during the period between the date of this Agreement and the Effective Time, the outstanding Shares shall have been changed into a different number of shares or a different class (including by reason of any reclassification, recapitalization, stock split or combination, exchange or readjustment of Shares, or stock dividend thereon with a record date during such period, but excluding any change that results from any exercise of options outstanding as of the date hereof to purchase Shares granted under the Company’s stock option or compensation plans or arrangements), the Offer Price, the Merger Consideration and any other amounts payable pursuant to this Agreement shall be appropriately adjusted; provided, however, that nothing in this Section 3.06 shall be construed to permit the Company to take any action with respect to the Shares that is prohibited by the terms of this Agreement.

Section 3.07 Withholding Rights. Notwithstanding any provision contained herein to the contrary, each of the Exchange Agent, the Surviving Corporation and Parent shall be entitled to deduct and withhold any Taxes required under Applicable Law to be deducted and withheld from any payment to any Person pursuant to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and any such amounts deducted and withheld shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of whom such deduction and withholding was made.

Any amounts deducted and withheld pursuant to this Section 3.07 shall be timely remitted to the appropriate Governmental Authority in accordance with Applicable Law.

Section 3.08 Lost Certificates. If any Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the Person claiming such Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed and, if required by the Surviving Corporation, the posting by such Person of a bond, in such reasonable amount as the Surviving Corporation or the Exchange Agent may direct, as indemnity against any claim that may be made against the Exchange Agent, Parent or the Surviving Corporation with respect to such Certificate, the Exchange Agent shall pay, in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate, the Merger Consideration to be paid in respect of the Shares represented by such Certificate, as contemplated by this Article 3.

Section 3.09 Transfer Taxes. Any and all transfer Taxes imposed in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be borne by Parent and the Surviving Corporation.

ARTICLE 4.
REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE COMPANY

Subject to Section 11.05, except as disclosed in any Company SEC Document filed before the date of this Agreement (other than any disclosures contained or referenced therein under the captions “Risk Factors,” “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” and any other disclosures contained or referenced therein of information, factors or risks that are predictive, cautionary or forward-looking in nature), provided that the Company SEC Documents shall in no event qualify the representations or warranties set forth in Sections 4.02, 4.05 or 4.24, or as set forth in the Company Disclosure Schedule, the Company represents and warrants to Parent and Merger Subsidiary that:

The Company is a corporation duly incorporated, validly existing and in good standing under Delaware Law and has all corporate powers and authority and all material governmental licenses, authorizations, permits, consents and approvals required to carry on its business as now conducted and to own, lease or operate its assets. The Company is duly qualified to do business as a foreign corporation and is in good standing in each jurisdiction where such qualification is necessary, except for those jurisdictions where failure to be so qualified would not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Company Material Adverse Effect.

The affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the outstanding Shares (if required by Applicable Law) is the only vote of the holders of any of the Company’s capital stock that, absent Section 251(h) of Delaware Law, would have been necessary in connection

with the consummation of the Merger (the “Company Stockholder Approval”). This Agreement constitutes a valid and binding agreement of the Company.

terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 6.04(d)(i) absent any revision to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, which notice will specify the basis for such Adverse Recommendation Change or termination, including the identity of the Person or “group” of Persons making such Acquisition Proposal, the material terms thereof and copies of all relevant documents relating to such Acquisition Proposal; and (ii) prior to effecting such Adverse Recommendation Change or termination, the Company and its Representatives, during the Notice Period, must have (1) negotiated with Parent and its Representatives in good faith (to the extent that Parent desires to so negotiate) to make such adjustments to the terms and conditions of this Agreement so that such Acquisition Proposal would cease to constitute a Superior Proposal; and (2) permitted Parent and its Representatives to make a presentation to the Board of Directors regarding this Agreement and any adjustments with respect thereto (to the extent that Parent requests to make such a presentation); provided, however, that in the event of any material revisions to such Acquisition Proposal, the Company will be required to deliver a new written notice to Parent and to comply with the requirements of this Section 6.04(d)(i)(C) (other than the requirement of a presentation as contemplated by clause (ii)(2) above) with respect to such new written notice (it being understood that the “Notice Period” in respect of such new written notice will be one Business Day); and

(D) in the event of any termination of this Agreement in order to cause or permit the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to enter into an Alternative Acquisition Agreement with respect to such Acquisition Proposal, the Company will have validly terminated this Agreement in accordance with Section 10.01(f), including paying the Company Termination Fee in accordance with Section 10.03(a).

(e) Nothing contained herein shall prevent the Board of Directors from (i) complying with Rule 14e-2(a) under the 1934 Act with regard to an Acquisition Proposal so long as any action taken or statement made to so comply is consistent with this Section 6.04; provided that any such action taken or statement made that relates to an Acquisition Proposal shall be deemed to be an Adverse Recommendation Change unless the Board of Directors reaffirms the Company Board Recommendation in such statement or in connection with such action or (ii) issuing a “stop, look and listen” disclosure or similar communication of the type contemplated by Rule 14d-9(f) under the 1934 Act (which it is agreed shall not constitute an Adverse Recommendation Change).

the cost of such “tail policy” does not exceed the Maximum Annual Premium. If the Company or the Surviving Corporation for any reason fail to obtain such “tail” insurance policies as of the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation shall, and Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, continue to maintain in effect, for a period of at least six (6) years from and after the Effective Time, the D&O Insurance in place as of the date hereof with the Company’s current insurance carrier or with an insurance carrier with the same or better credit rating as the Company’s current insurance carrier with respect to D&O Insurance with terms, conditions, retentions and limits of liability that are no less favorable than the coverage provided under the Company’s existing policies as of the date hereof, or the Surviving Corporation shall purchase from the Company’s current insurance carrier or from an insurance carrier with the same or better credit rating as the Company’s current insurance carrier with respect to D&O Insurance comparable D&O Insurance for such six (6) year period with terms, conditions, retentions and limits of liability that are no less favorable than as provided in the Company’s existing policies as of the date hereof; provided that in no event shall Parent or the Surviving Corporation be required to expend for such policies pursuant to this sentence an annual premium amount in excess of three hundred percent (300%) of the amount per annum the Company paid in its last full fiscal year, which amount is set forth in Section 7.03(c) of the Company Disclosure Schedule (the “Maximum Annual Premium”); provided, further that if the aggregate premiums of such insurance coverage exceed such amount, the Surviving Corporation shall be obligated to obtain a policy with the greatest coverage reasonably available, with respect to matters occurring prior to the Effective Time, for a cost not exceeding such amount.

(a) by mutual written agreement of the Company and Parent at any time prior to the Acceptance Time;

(b) by either the Company or Parent, if:

(i) the Acceptance Time shall not have occurred on or before one hundred twenty (120) days from the date hereof ; provided that such date shall automatically be extended to the date that is one hundred eighty (180) days from the date hereof if the Acceptance Time shall have not occurred prior to the date that is one hundred twenty (120) days from the date hereof due to any failure of the condition in Section (i)(B) of Annex I hereto (the “End Date”); provided that the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 10.01(b)(i) shall not be available to any party whose breach of any provision of this Agreement primarily results in the failure of the Offer to be consummated by such time; or

(ii) if any court of competent jurisdiction or other Governmental Authority of competent jurisdiction shall have issued an order or taken any other action, in each case, permanently restraining, enjoining or otherwise prohibiting (A) prior to the Acceptance Time, the acceptance for payment of, or payment for, Shares pursuant to the Offer or (B) prior to the Effective Time, the consummation of the Merger, and, in each case, such order or other action shall have become final and nonappealable; provided that the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 10.01(b)(ii) shall not be available to any party which has not complied in all material respects with its obligations under Section 8.01;

(d) by Parent at any time prior to the Acceptance Time if (i) there shall have been a material breach of any covenant or agreement on the part of the Company set forth in this Agreement; or (ii) any representation or warranty of the Company set forth in Article 3 of this Agreement shall have been inaccurate when made that would, in the case of both clauses (i) and (ii), (A) result in the failure of the conditions set forth in Section (ii)(B) or Section (ii)(C) of Annex I hereto not being satisfied, and (B) such breach is not curable by the End Date, or, if curable, is not cured within thirty (30) days of the date Parent gives the Company notice of such breach; provided, however, that Parent shall not have the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 10.01(d) if Merger Subsidiary or Parent is then in material breach of any of its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements hereunder such that the Company has the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 10.01(e);

(e) by the Company at any time prior to the Acceptance Time if (i) there shall have been a material breach of any covenant or agreement on the part of Merger Subsidiary or Parent set forth in this Agreement; or (ii) any representation or warranty of Merger Subsidiary and Parent set forth in Article 4 of this Agreement shall have been inaccurate when made or, if not made as of a specific date, shall have become inaccurate, that would, in the case of both clauses (i) and (ii), (A) have a material adverse effect on the ability of Merger Subsidiary or Parent to consummate the Offer, and (B) such breach is not curable by the End Date, or, if curable, is not cured within thirty (30) days of the date the Company gives Parent notice of such breach; provided, however, that the Company shall not have the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 10.01(e) if the Company is then in material breach of any of its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements hereunder such that Parent has the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 10.01(d);

Section 10.02 Effect of Termination. If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 10.01, this Agreement shall become void and of no effect without liability of any party (or any stockholder, director, officer, employee, agent, consultant or representative of such party) to the other parties hereto; provided that, subject to the limits set forth in Section 10.03, the termination of this Agreement shall not relieve any party from any liability for any willful and material breach of this Agreement prior to the date of termination and fraud. The provisions of this Section 10.02 and Sections 11.04, 11.06, 11.07, 11.08 and 11.09 shall survive any termination hereof pursuant to Section 10.01.

Section 10.03 Termination Fee.

(a) In the event that this Agreement is terminated (i)(x)(A) by Parent, Merger Subsidiary or the Company pursuant to Section 10.01(b)(i) or (B) by Parent pursuant to Section 10.01(d), (y) an Acquisition Proposal by a Third Party shall have become publicly known or delivered to the Board of Directors after the date hereof and prior to such termination and (z) within twelve (12) months after such termination (A) the Company enters into a definitive agreement with respect to an Acquisition Proposal or (B) any Acquisition Proposal is consummated (with all references to twenty-five percent (25%) in the definition of Acquisition Transaction being treated as references to fifty percent (50%) solely for purposes of clause (b)(i) of this Section 10.03(a)); (ii) by the Company pursuant to Section 10.01(f); or (iii) by Parent pursuant to Section 10.01(c), then, in any such event, the Company shall pay Parent the

Company Termination Fee (less any Parent Expense Reimbursement previously paid or payable by the Company), which amount shall be payable by wire transfer of immediately available funds. The Company Termination Fee (which, if owing, shall be payable only once) shall be paid (x) in the circumstances described in clause (i) above, promptly (but in no event later than one (1) Business Day) following the first to occur of the events giving rise to the obligation to make such payment, (y) in the circumstances described in clause (ii) above, concurrently with and as a condition to the termination and (z) in the circumstances described in clause (iii) above, promptly (but in no event later than five (5) Business Days) following the first to occur of the events giving rise to the obligation to make such payment.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Parties acknowledge and agree on behalf of themselves and their Affiliates that (i) the Company Termination Fee is not a penalty, but rather is liquidated damages in a reasonable amount that will compensate Parent and Merger Subsidiary in the circumstances in which the Company Termination Fee is payable for the efforts and resources expended and opportunity forgone while negotiating this Agreement and in reliance on this Agreement and on the expectation of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, which amount would otherwise be impossible to calculate with precision. The Parties acknowledge and hereby agree that the provisions of this Section 10.03 are an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and that, without such provisions, the Parties would not have entered into this Agreement. Accordingly, if the Company fails promptly to pay any amount due to Parent pursuant to this Section 10.03, it shall also pay reasonable costs and expenses incurred by Parent or Merger Subsidiary in connection with a legal action to enforce this Agreement that results in a judgment against the Company for such amount, together with interest on the amount of any unpaid fee, cost or expense at the publicly announced prime rate of JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. from the date such fee, cost or expense was required to be paid to (but excluding) the payment date.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, subject to Section 11.13 and other than in the case of fraud or willful and material breach, each of Parent and Merger Subsidiary expressly acknowledges and agrees that (x) Parent’s right to receive payment of the Company Termination Fee pursuant to Section 10.03 (plus any costs, expenses or interest payable in connection therewith pursuant to Section 10.03(b)) and Parent’s right to receive payment of the Parent Expense Reimbursement pursuant to Section 10.03(g), in each case, in the respective circumstances in which the Company Termination Fee and/or the Parent Expense Reimbursement is payable, shall constitute the only monetary damages that (A) Parent, Merger Subsidiary or Sponsor, (B) the former, current and future holders of any equity, controlling persons, directors, officers, employees, agents, attorneys, Financing Sources, Affiliates (other than Parent, Merger Subsidiary and Sponsor), members, managers, general or limited partners, stockholders and assignees of each of Parent, Merger Subsidiary and Sponsor (the Persons in clauses (A) and (B) collectively, the “Parent Related Parties”) may recover from (A) the Company, its Subsidiaries and each of their respective Affiliates; and (B) the former, current and future holders of any equity, controlling persons, directors, officers, employees, agents, attorneys, Affiliates, members, managers, general or limited partners, stockholders and assignees of each of the Company, its Subsidiaries and each of their respective Affiliates (the Persons in clauses (A) and (B) collectively, the “Company Related Parties”) for

any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, costs, fees, expenses (including reasonable attorney’s fees and disbursements), judgments, inquiries and fines suffered in respect of this Agreement (including in respect of any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement or the failure of the Merger to be consummated) or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement in such circumstances, and upon payment of the Company Termination Fee to Parent pursuant to this Section 10.03 (plus any costs, expenses or interest payable in connection therewith pursuant to Section 10.03(b)), none of the Company Related Parties shall have any further liability or obligation to any of the Parent Related Parties relating to or arising out of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby.

(d) Under no circumstances will the collective monetary damages payable by Parent, Merger Subsidiary or any of their Affiliates for breaches under this Agreement, the Limited Guarantee or the Equity Commitment Letter exceed an amount equal to $16,000,000 in the aggregate for all such breaches (including reasonable attorney’s fees and costs to enforce this Agreement and Limited Guarantee) (the “Parent Liability Limitation”). In no event will any of the Company Related Parties seek or obtain, nor will they permit any of their Representatives or any other Person acting on their behalf to seek or obtain, nor will any Person be entitled to seek or obtain, any monetary recovery or award in excess of the Parent Liability Limitation against any Parent Related Parties, and in no event will the Company or any of its Subsidiaries be entitled to seek or obtain any monetary damages of any kind, including consequential, special, indirect or punitive damages, in excess of the Parent Liability Limitation against the Parent Related Parties for, or with respect to, this Agreement, the Equity Commitment Letter, the Limited Guarantee or the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby (including, any breach by Sponsor, Parent or Merger Subsidiary), the termination of this Agreement, the failure to consummate the Offer or the Merger or any claims or actions under Applicable Law arising out of any such breach, termination or failure. Other than Sponsor’s obligations under the Limited Guarantee and the Equity Commitment Letter and other than the obligations of Parent and Merger Subsidiary to the extent expressly provided in this Agreement, in no event will any Parent Related Party or any other Person other than Sponsor, Parent and Merger Subsidiary have any liability for monetary damages to the Company or any other Person relating to or arising out of this Agreement, the Offer or the Merger, provided that nothing in this Section 10.03(d) shall be deemed to limit the Company’s rights as a third party beneficiary to seek specific performance of the Equity Commitment Letter in accordance with the terms thereof.

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 10.03, it is agreed that Parent, Merger Subsidiary and the Company will be entitled to an injunction, specific performance or other equitable relief as provided in Section 11.13, except that, although the Company, in its sole discretion, may determine its choice of remedies hereunder, including by pursuing specific performance in accordance with, but subject to the limitations of, Section 11.13(b), under no circumstances will the Company be permitted or entitled to receive both specific performance of the type contemplated by Section 11.13(b) and any monetary damages.

(f) In no event will the Company seek or obtain, nor will they permit any of its Representatives to seek or obtain, nor will any Person be entitled to seek or obtain, any monetary recovery or monetary award against any Person who is not a named party to this Agreement, the Equity Commitment Letter or the Limited Guarantee, including any past, present or future

director, officer, employee, incorporator, member, partner, stockholder, Affiliate, agent, attorney or representative of any named party to this Agreement with respect to this Agreement, the Equity Commitment Letter or the Limited Guarantee or the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby (including any breach by Sponsor, Parent or Merger Subsidiary), the termination of this Agreement, the failure to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby or any claims or actions under Applicable Law arising out of any such breach, termination or failure, other than from Parent or Merger Subsidiary to the extent expressly provided for in this Agreement or Sponsor to the extent expressly provided for in the Limited Guarantee and the Equity Commitment Letter.

(g) In the event this Agreement is terminated by either Party pursuant to Section 10.01(b)(i) (provided that, at such time, all Offer Conditions (other than the Minimum Condition and, if applicable, the condition set forth in Section (ii)(B) of Annex I, the condition set forth in Section (ii)(C) of Annex I and/or any other Offer Condition that has not been satisfied as a result of a breach of this Agreement by the Company) had been satisfied or waived (other than those Offer Conditions that are only capable of being satisfied or waived at the Acceptance Time, but provided that such Offer Conditions were so capable of being satisfied or waived) or by Parent pursuant Section 10.01(d) (for willful breach), then the Company shall reimburse Parent for its actual and reasonable out-of-pocket expenses in an amount not to exceed $2,000,000 (the “Parent Expense Reimbursement”), by wire transfer of immediately available funds on the second (2nd) Business Day following the date of such termination of this Agreement; provided, that the existence of circumstances which would require the Company Termination Fee (less any Parent Expense Reimbursement previously paid to Parent by the Company) to become subsequently payable by the Company pursuant to Section 10.03(a)(i) shall not relieve the Company of its obligations to pay the Parent Expense Reimbursement pursuant to this Section 10.03(g); and provided, further, that the payment by the Company of the Parent Expense Reimbursement pursuant to this Section 10.03(g) shall not relieve the Company of any subsequent obligation to pay the Company Termination Fee (less any Parent Expense Reimbursement previously paid to Parent by the Company) pursuant to Section 10.03(a)(i). For the avoidance of doubt, (x) in no event shall the Company be required to pay the Parent Expense Reimbursement on more than one (1) occasion and (y) in no event shall the sum of the Parent Expense Reimbursement and Company Termination Fee payable by the Company exceed the Company Termination Fee.

Section 10.04 No Liability of Financing Sources. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, (i) no Company Related Party shall have any rights or claims against any of the Financing Sources in connection with this Agreement, the Debt Financing or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, whether at law, in contract, in tort or otherwise; and (ii) no Financing Source shall have any liability or obligation to the Company or any of its stockholders, Affiliates, directors, officers, employees, controlling persons or agents relating to or arising out of this Agreement, the Debt Financing or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, Section 10.03(c), Section 10.03(d), Section 10.03(f), Section 10.04, Section 11.03, Section 11.08 and this Section 11.06 (and the related definitions in this Agreement used therein, but only with respect to their use in such Sections as they relate specifically to the Financing Sources) shall not be amended, modified, supplemented or waived in a manner that is adverse in any material respect to any Financing Source without the prior written consent of the Financing Sources.

(b) No failure or delay by any party in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. The rights and remedies herein provided shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by Applicable Law.

reasonably apparent on its face. The mere inclusion of an item in either the Company Disclosure Schedule or the Parent Disclosure Schedule as an exception to (or, as applicable, a disclosure for purposes of) a representation or warranty shall not be deemed an admission that such item represents a material exception or material fact, event or circumstance or that such item has had or would reasonably be expected to have a Company Material Adverse Effect or Parent Material Adverse Effect, as applicable.

Section 11.06 Binding Effect; Benefit; Assignment. (a) The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and, except as provided in Section 7.03, shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns.

Process in any such suit, action or proceeding may be served on any party anywhere in the world, whether within or without the jurisdiction of any such court. Without limiting the foregoing, each party agrees that service of process on such party as provided in Section 11.01 shall be deemed effective service of process on such party.

EACH PARTY SHALL TAKE ALL SUCH ACTION AS MAY BE NECESSARY TO CONTINUE SAID APPOINTMENT IN FULL FORCE AND EFFECT OR TO APPOINT ANOTHER AGENT SO THAT SUCH PARTY WILL AT ALL TIMES HAVE AN AGENT FOR SERVICE OF PROCESS FOR THE ABOVE PURPOSES IN DELAWARE. NOTHING HEREIN SHALL AFFECT THE RIGHT OF ANY PARTY TO SERVE PROCESS IN ANY MANNER PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW. EACH PARTY EXPRESSLY ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THE FOREGOING WAIVER IS INTENDED TO BE IRREVOCABLE UNDER THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE AND OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA.

Section 11.09 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL.

Section 11.10 Counterparts; Effectiveness. This Agreement may be signed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original, with the same effect as if the signatures thereto and hereto were upon the same instrument.

Section 11.11 Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the documents and instruments and other agreements among the Parties as contemplated by or referred to herein, including the Confidentiality Agreement, the Company Disclosure Schedule, the Limited Guarantee and the Equity Commitment Letter, constitute the entire agreement between the parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, both oral and written, between the parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement.

Section 11.12 Severability. If any term, provision, covenant or restriction of this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction or other Governmental Authority to be invalid, void or unenforceable, the remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any party. Upon such a determination, the parties shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner in order that the transactions contemplated hereby be consummated as originally contemplated to the fullest extent possible.

Section 11.13 Specific Performance.

(a) The Parties 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 do not perform the provisions of this Agreement (including any Party 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 acknowledge and agree that, subject to Section 10.04, (A) the Parties 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 10.03 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 Merger and without that right, neither the Company nor Parent would have entered into this Agreement.

(b) The Parties agree not to raise any objections to (A) the granting of an injunction, specific performance or other equitable relief to prevent or restrain breaches or threatened breaches of this Agreement by the Company, on the one hand, or Parent and Merger Sub, on the

ANNEX I

CONDITIONS TO THE OFFER

Notwithstanding any other provision of the Offer, Merger Subsidiary shall not be required to, and Parent shall not be required to cause Merger Subsidiary to, accept for payment or pay for any Shares validly tendered and not validly withdrawn prior to any then-scheduled Expiration Date in connection with the Offer and, subject to the terms of this Agreement, may terminate the Offer, if:

(i) prior to the expiration of the Offer,

(A) there shall not have been validly tendered in accordance with the terms of the Offer, and not validly withdrawn prior to the Expiration Date, a number of Shares that, together with (without duplication of Shares) the Shares then owned, directly or indirectly, by Parent and/or Merger Subsidiary and any other Subsidiaries of Parent, collectively represents as of the Expiration Date at least a majority of the Shares outstanding on a Fully Diluted basis (the “Minimum Condition”),

(B) the applicable waiting period under the HSR Act (or under laws analogous to the HSR Act existing in foreign jurisdictions in which the Company has annual revenues or assets in excess of $10,000,000) shall not have expired or been terminated; or

(ii) at any time on or after the date of this Agreement and prior to the expiration of the Offer,

(A) there is an Applicable Law or a judgment, injunction, order or decree of any Governmental Authority with competent jurisdiction restraining, prohibiting or otherwise making illegal the consummation of the Offer or the Merger or restrains or prohibits Parent or Merger Subsidiary from exercising full rights of ownership in the Shares purchased pursuant to the Offer,

(B) any of the representations and warranties of the Company (a) set forth in Section 4.05(a) (Capitalization) and Section 4.05(b) (Capitalization), shall not be true and correct as of the date of this Agreement and as of the Expiration Date as though made as of the Expiration Date, except where the failure of such representations and warranties to be so true and correct in all respects that did not result from a willful breach by the Company would not reasonably be expected to result in additional cost, expense or liability to Parent or Merger Subsidiary, individually or in the aggregate, that is more than $250,000, (b) set forth in Section 4.02(a) (Authorization), Section 4.02(b) (Authorization), Section 4.23(a) (Brokers’ Fees), Section 4.24 (Opinion of Financial Advisor) and Section 4.25 (Antitakeover Statutes) shall not be true and correct in all material respects as of the date of this Agreement and as of the Expiration Date as though made as of the Expiration Date, (c) set forth in Section 4.10(a) (Absence of Certain Changes) shall not be true and correct as of the date of this Agreement and as of the Expiration Date as though made as of the Expiration Date (without disregarding the “Company Material Adverse Effect” qualification set forth therein), and (d) set forth in this Agreement, other than those described in clauses (a), (b) and (c) above, shall not be

true and correct (disregarding all qualifications or limitations as to “materiality”, “Company Material Adverse Effect” and words of similar import set forth therein) as of the date of this Agreement and as of the Expiration Date as though made as of the Expiration Date, but only if, in the case of this clause (d), where the failure of such representations and warranties to be so true and correct has had or would reasonably be expected to have a Company Material Adverse Effect; provided in each case that representations and warranties made as of a specific date shall be required to be so true and correct (subject to such qualifications) as of such date only,

(C) the Company shall have breached or failed to perform or comply in all material respects with any of its obligations or covenants under this Agreement prior to such time (other than with respect to the obligations set forth in the proviso to Section 11.04, which obligation shall fail to have been performed or complied with other than in any de minimis respect),

(D) since the date of this Agreement, a Company Material Adverse Effect shall have occurred,

(E) the Cash on Hand on the last Business Day of the prior month shall be no less than (i) if the Expiration Date occurs in September 2016, $32,418,000; (ii) if the Expiration Date occurs in October 2016, $33,574,000; (iii) if the Expiration Date occurs in November 2016, $33,483,000 less the amount of the Pointroll Payment actually paid prior to such time; (iv) if the Expiration Date occurs in December 2016, $37,137,000 less the amount of the Pointroll Payment actually paid on or prior to November 30, 2016; and (v) if the Expiration Date occurs in January 2017 or thereafter, $42,161,000 less the amount of the Pointroll Payment actually paid on or prior to November 30, 2016, in each case of (i), (ii), (iii), (iv) and (v) less the aggregate amount of fees and expenses paid in connection with the Offer and the Merger that the Company and its Subsidiaries has paid between the date of this Agreement and the Expiration Date up to $5,000,000.

(F) the Company shall have failed to deliver to Parent a certificate signed on behalf of the Company by its chief executive officer or chief financial officer dated as of the date on which the Offer expires certifying that the Offer Conditions specified in paragraphs (B) and (C) do not exist,

(G) if the holders of more than 10.0% of the outstanding Shares (other than the Shares beneficially owned by (i) Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxxx set forth on Section I(ii)(G) of the Company Disclosure Schedule and (ii) Meruelo Investment Partners LLC and certain of its Affiliates set forth on the Schedule 13D/A filed by such Persons with the SEC on March 19, 2015) shall have perfected and not withdrawn a demand for appraisal rights pursuant to Section 262 of Delaware Law, or

(H) this Agreement shall have been terminated in accordance with its terms.

For purposes of determining whether the Minimum Condition and the condition set forth in Section (i)(A) above have been satisfied, Merger Subsidiary and Parent shall exclude for purposes of its determination thereof Shares tendered in the Offer pursuant to guaranteed

delivery procedures that have not yet been delivered in settlement or satisfaction of such guarantee.

The foregoing conditions shall be in addition to, and not a limitation of, the rights and obligations of Merger Subsidiary and Parent to extend, terminate or modify the Offer pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Agreement.

The foregoing conditions are for the sole benefit of Merger Subsidiary and Parent and, subject to the terms and conditions of the Agreement and Applicable Law, may be waived by Merger Subsidiary or Parent, in whole or in part at any time and from time to time prior to the Expiration Date in the sole discretion of Merger Subsidiary or Parent (other than the Minimum Condition, which may be waived by Merger Subsidiary and Parent only with the prior written consent of the Company). The failure by Merger Subsidiary or Parent at any time to exercise any of the foregoing rights shall not be deemed a waiver of any such right and each such right shall be deemed an ongoing right which may be asserted at any time and from time to time, subject to the applicable rules and regulations of the SEC.
