AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF MERGER
This AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF MERGER, dated as of February 25, 2008 (this “Agreement”),
is among Galderma Laboratories, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Parent”), Galderma
Acquisition Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned Subsidiary of Parent
(“Purchaser”), and CollaGenex Pharmaceuticals, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the
“Company”). Certain terms used in this Agreement without definition shall have their
meanings as defined in Section 8.11.
WHEREAS, the respective Boards of Directors of Parent, Purchaser and the Company each deems it
advisable that Parent acquire the Company on the terms and subject to the conditions provided for
in this Agreement;
WHEREAS, in furtherance thereof it is proposed that such acquisition be accomplished by
(a) Purchaser commencing a tender offer to purchase all of the shares of common stock, $0.01 par
value, of the Company (“Company Common Stock”) issued and outstanding (each, a
“Share” and, collectively, the “Shares”), for $16.60 per Share (such amount or any
greater amount per Share paid pursuant to the Offer being hereinafter referred to as the “Offer
Price”), subject to any required withholding of Taxes, net to the sellers in cash, on the terms
and subject to the conditions provided for in this Agreement (such cash tender offer, as it may be
amended from time to time as permitted by this Agreement, the “Offer”), and (b) following
the consummation of the Offer, the merger of Purchaser with and into the Company, with the Company
being the surviving corporation, in accordance with the General Corporation Law of the State of
Delaware (the “DGCL”), pursuant to which (i) the Shares (other than certain Shares as
provided in Section 2.7(b) and Dissenting Shares) will be converted into the right to
receive the Offer Price and (ii) the outstanding shares (each, a “Series D-1 Share” and,
collectively, the “Series D-1 Shares”) of the Series D-1 Cumulative Convertible Preferred
Stock, $0.01 par value, of the Company (the “Series D-1 Preferred Stock”) (other than
certain Series D-1 Shares as provided in Section 2.7(b) and Dissenting Shares) will be
converted into the right to receive an amount of cash equal to the product of the number of shares
of Company Common Stock into which such Series D-1 Shares are convertible pursuant to and in
accordance with Section A.5 of the Certificate of Designation, Preferences and Rights of the Series
D-1 Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock, dated as of December 19, 2005 (the “Series D-1
Preferred Stock Certificate of Designation”) multiplied by the Offer Price, subject to any
required withholding of Taxes, on the terms and subject to the conditions provided for in this
Agreement (the “Merger”);
WHEREAS, the respective Boards of Directors of the Company, Parent (on its own behalf and as
the sole direct or indirect stockholder of Purchaser), and Purchaser have approved this Agreement
and resolved that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are advisable and in the best
interests of their respective stockholders, including the consummation of the Offer and the Merger,
upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement and in accordance with the
relevant provisions of the DGCL;
WHEREAS, the Company Board has resolved to recommend that the holders of Company Common Stock
(the “Company Stockholders”) accept
the Offer, tender their shares of Company Common Stock in the Offer, and, to the extent
required by applicable Law, approve
the Merger and adopt this Agreement and the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement (including the Offer and the Merger), in each case, upon the terms
and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement; and
WHEREAS, concurrently with the execution of this Agreement, Parent, Purchaser and holders
(collectively, the “Company Preferred Stockholders”) of 90% or more of the Series D-1
Shares have entered into a preferred stock purchase and voting agreement, dated as of the date of
this Agreement (the “Preferred Stockholder Agreement”), pursuant to which each Company
Preferred Stockholder has agreed to, among other things, sell, convey, transfer, assign and deliver
to Purchaser all of such Company Preferred Stockholder’s Series D-1 Shares immediately following
the time Purchaser purchases Shares in the Offer, a copy of which Preferred Stockholder Agreement
is attached as Annex B hereto;
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements
contained in this Agreement, and intending to be legally bound hereby, Parent, Purchaser and the
Company hereby agree as follows:
ARTICLE I
The Offer
SECTION 1.1 The Offer.
(a) Provided that this Agreement shall not have been terminated in accordance with
Article VII and none of the events or circumstances set forth in clause (iii) of Annex
A hereto shall have occurred and be existing (and shall not have been waived by Purchaser),
Purchaser shall (and Parent shall cause Purchaser to) commence (within the meaning of Rule 14d-2
under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules and regulations promulgated
thereunder (the “Exchange Act”)) the Offer to purchase all of the Shares at the Offer Price
as promptly as reasonably practicable, but in no event later than ten (10) Business Days, after the
date of this Agreement; provided, however, that such ten (10) Business Day deadline
to commence the Offer will be extended to such date as the Company is ready to file the Schedule
14D-9 on the same date as the commencement of the Offer. The obligation of Purchaser to accept for
payment and pay for Shares tendered pursuant to the Offer shall be subject only to (x) the
satisfaction of the condition that at the expiration of the Offer there be validly tendered in
accordance with the terms of the Offer and not withdrawn that number of Shares which, when taken
together with Shares (if any) then owned by Parent or any of its Subsidiaries, represents more than
50% of the Shares then outstanding determined on a fully-diluted basis (on a “fully-diluted basis”
meaning the number of Shares then issued and outstanding plus all shares of Company Common Stock
which the Company may be required to issue as of such date pursuant to options, warrants,
convertible securities (other than the shares of Series D-1 Preferred Stock owned, beneficially or
of record, as of the date hereof, by the Company Preferred Stockholders) or similar obligations
regardless of the conversion or exercise price, the vesting schedule or other terms and conditions
thereof) (the “Minimum Condition”), and (y) the satisfaction (or waiver by Purchaser) of
the other conditions
set forth in Annex A hereto. Purchaser expressly reserves the right to waive any of
such conditions (other than the Minimum Condition), to increase the price per Share payable in the
Offer and to make any other
2
changes in the terms of the Offer; provided, however,
that no change may be made without the prior written consent of the Company which decreases the
price per Share payable in the Offer, changes the form of consideration payable in the Offer,
reduces the maximum number of Shares sought to be purchased in the Offer, imposes conditions to the
Offer in addition to, or modifies or amends, the conditions set forth in Annex A hereto,
waives the Minimum Condition or makes any other changes in the terms of the Offer that are in any
manner adverse to the holders of Shares or, except as provided below, extends the expiration date
of the Offer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, subject to the right of the parties to terminate this
Agreement in accordance with Section 7.1, Purchaser may, and at the request of the Company
shall, extend the Offer (i) beyond the initial scheduled expiration date, which shall be twenty
(20) business days (as defined in Rule 14d-1 under the Exchange Act) following the date of
commencement of the Offer, or any subsequent scheduled expiration date, if, at the scheduled
expiration of the Offer, any of the conditions to Purchaser’s obligation to accept for payment and
to pay for Shares tendered shall not be satisfied or, to the extent permitted by this Agreement,
waived and (ii) for any period required by any rule, regulation or interpretation of the U.S.
Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) or the staff thereof applicable to the
Offer; provided that Purchaser shall not be required to extend the Offer to a date later
than the Outside Date. Each extension of the Offer pursuant to clause (i) of the preceding
sentence shall not exceed ten (10) Business Days (or such longer period as the Company and
Purchaser may agree in writing in any particular instance) or such fewer number of days that
Purchaser reasonably believes are necessary to cause the conditions of the Offer set forth in
Annex A hereto to be satisfied. Subject to the terms of this Agreement and the
satisfaction or earlier waiver of all the conditions of the Offer set forth in Annex A
hereto as of any expiration date of the Offer, Purchaser shall (and Parent shall cause Purchaser
to) accept for payment and pay for all Shares validly tendered and not withdrawn pursuant to the
Offer promptly after it is permitted to do so under applicable Laws (but in no event later than two
(2) Business Days after such expiration date of the Offer). In addition, if, at the expiration
date of the Offer, all of the conditions to the Offer have been satisfied (or, to the extent
permitted by this Agreement, waived by Purchaser) but the number of Shares validly tendered and not
withdrawn pursuant to the Offer, when taken together with Shares, if any, then owned by Parent and
its Subsidiaries, constitutes less than 90% of the Shares then outstanding, determined on a
fully-diluted basis (as defined in Section 1.1(a)), Purchaser may, or at the Company’s
request (subject to applicable Laws) shall, provide for one or more “subsequent offering periods”
(as contemplated by Rule 14d-11 under the Exchange Act) for at least three (3) but not more than
twenty (20) Business Days following the Purchase Date, in which event Purchaser shall (and Parent
shall cause Purchaser to) (A) give the required notice of such subsequent offering period and
(B) immediately accept and promptly pay for all Shares tendered during the “initial offering
period” and immediately accept and promptly pay for all Shares tendered during any “subsequent
offering period,” in each case in accordance with Rule 14d-11 under the Exchange Act. On or prior
to the date that Purchaser becomes obligated to pay for Shares pursuant to the Offer, Parent shall
provide or cause to be provided to Purchaser the funds necessary to pay for all Shares that
Purchaser becomes so obligated to pay for pursuant to the Offer. The Offer Price shall, subject to
any required withholding of Taxes, be net to the sellers in cash, upon the terms and subject to
the conditions of the Offer. The Company agrees that no shares of Company Common Stock held
by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries will be tendered in the Offer.
3
(b) As promptly as practicable on the date of commencement of the Offer, Parent and Purchaser
shall file with the SEC a Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO (together with all amendments,
supplements and exhibits thereto, the “Schedule TO”) with respect to the Offer. The
Schedule TO shall contain or incorporate by reference an offer to purchase and forms of the related
letter of transmittal and all other ancillary Offer documents (collectively, together with all
amendments, supplements and exhibits thereto, the “Offer Documents”). Parent and Purchaser
shall cause the Offer Documents to be disseminated to the holders of the Shares as and to the
extent required by applicable federal securities Laws and rules and regulations promulgated
thereunder. Parent and Purchaser, on the one hand, and the Company, on the other hand, shall
promptly correct any information provided by them for use in the Offer Documents if and to the
extent that it shall be or shall have become false or misleading in any material respect, and
Parent and Purchaser shall cause the Offer Documents as so corrected to be filed with the SEC and
disseminated to holders of the Shares, in each case, as and to the extent required by applicable
federal securities Laws and rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. The Company and its
counsel shall be given a reasonable opportunity to review and comment upon the Offer Documents
before they are filed with the SEC and disseminated to holders of Shares. In addition, Parent and
Purchaser shall provide the Company and its counsel with any comments that Parent or Purchaser or
their counsel may receive from time to time from the SEC or its staff with respect to the Offer
Documents promptly after the receipt of such comments, consult with the Company and its counsel
prior to responding to any such comments and provide the Company with copies of all such responses.
(c) Purchaser shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise
payable pursuant to the Offer (or in connection with any subsequent offering period) any such
amounts as are required to be deducted and withheld with respect to the making of such payment
under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), or under any provision of
state, local or foreign Tax Law.
SECTION 1.2 Company Actions.
(a) As promptly as practicable on the date of commencement of the Offer, the Company shall
file with the SEC a Solicitation/Recommendation Statement on Schedule 14D-9 (together with all
amendments, supplements and exhibits thereto, the “Schedule 14D-9”) which, subject to
Section 5.2, shall contain the Company Recommendation. The Company shall cause the
Schedule 14D-9 to be disseminated to holders of the Shares as and to the extent required by
applicable federal securities Laws and rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. The Company,
on the one hand, and each of Parent and Purchaser, on the other hand, shall promptly correct any
information provided by it for use in the Schedule 14D-9 if and to the extent that it shall be or
shall have become false or misleading in any material respect, and the Company shall cause the
Schedule 14D-9 as so corrected to be filed with the SEC and disseminated to holders of the Shares,
in each case, as and to the extent required by applicable federal securities Laws and rules and
regulations promulgated thereunder. Parent and its counsel shall be given a reasonable opportunity
to review and comment upon the Schedule 14D-9 before it is filed with the SEC and disseminated to
holders of Shares. In addition, the Company shall provide Parent and its counsel with any comments
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 the receipt of such comments,
4
consult with Parent and its
counsel prior to responding to any such comments and provide Parent with copies of all such
responses.
(b) The Company shall promptly furnish Purchaser with mailing labels containing the names and
addresses of all record holders of Shares and with security position listings of Shares held in
stock depositories, each as of a recent date, together with all other available listings and
computer files containing names, addresses and security position listings of record holders and
beneficial owners of Shares. The Company shall furnish Purchaser with such additional information,
including updated listings and computer files of stockholders, mailing labels and security position
listings, and such other assistance as Parent, Purchaser or their agents may reasonably require in
communicating the Offer to the record and beneficial holders of Shares. Subject to the
requirements of applicable Laws, and except for such steps as are necessary to disseminate the
Offer Documents and any other documents necessary to consummate the Offer or the Merger, Parent and
Purchaser shall hold in confidence the information contained in such labels, listings and files,
shall use such information solely in connection with the Offer and the Merger, and, if this
Agreement is terminated in accordance with Section 7.1 or if the Offer is otherwise
terminated, shall promptly deliver or cause to be delivered to the Company all copies of such
information, labels, listings and files then in their possession or in the possession of their
agents or representatives.
(c) The Company grants to Parent and Purchaser an irrevocable option (the “Merger
Option”) to purchase up to that number of newly issued shares of Company Common Stock (the
“Merger Option Shares”) equal to the number of shares of Company Common Stock that, when
added to the number of shares of Company Common Stock owned by Parent and Purchaser immediately
following consummation of the Offer, shall constitute one share more than 90% of the shares of
Company Common Stock then outstanding on a fully-diluted basis (after giving effect to the issuance
of the Merger Option Shares) for consideration per Merger Option Share equal to the Offer Price;
provided, however, that the obligation of the Company to deliver Merger Option
Shares upon the exercise of the Merger Option is subject to the condition that no judgment,
injunction, order or decree shall prohibit the exercise of the Merger Option or the delivery of the
Merger Option Shares in respect of such exercise.
(d) The Merger Option shall be exercisable only after the purchase of and payment for shares
of Company Common Stock pursuant to the Offer by Parent or Purchaser as a result of which Parent
and Purchaser own beneficially at least 80% of the outstanding shares of Company Common Stock on a
fully-diluted basis. The Merger Option shall not be exercisable to the extent that the number of
shares of Company Common Stock subject thereto exceeds (x) the number of authorized shares of
Company Common Stock available for issuance or (y) the number of shares of Company Common Stock
that may be issued to Parent and Purchaser without obtaining stockholder approval under the rules
of NASDAQ.
(e) In the event that Parent or Purchaser wish to exercise the Merger Option, Purchaser shall
give the Company one (1) Business Day’s prior written notice specifying the number of shares of
Company Common Stock that are owned by Parent and Purchaser immediately following consummation of
the Offer and specifying a place and a time for the
closing of the purchase. The Company shall, as soon as practicable following receipt of such
notice, deliver written notice to Purchaser specifying the number of Merger Option Shares. At
5
the
closing of the purchase of the Merger Option Shares, Parent or Purchaser shall pay to the Company
an amount equal to the product of (i) the number of shares of Company Common Stock purchased
pursuant to the Merger Option, multiplied by (ii) the Offer Price, which amount shall be paid in
cash (by wire transfer or cashier’s check) or, at the election of Parent or Purchaser, by delivery
of a promissory note having full recourse to Parent.
(f) Parent and Purchaser acknowledge that the Merger Option Shares which Parent and Purchaser
may acquire upon exercise of the Merger Option will not be registered under the Securities Act and
will be issued in reliance upon an exemption thereunder for transactions not involving a public
offering. Parent and Purchaser represent and warrant to the Company that Purchaser is, or will be
upon the purchase of the Merger Option Shares, an “accredited investor”, as defined in Rule 501 of
Regulation D under the Securities Act. Parent and Purchaser agree that the Merger Option and the
Merger Option Shares to be acquired upon exercise of the Merger Option are being and will be
acquired by Purchaser for the purpose of investment and not with a view to, or for resale in
connection with, any distribution thereof (within the meaning of the Securities Act).
SECTION 1.3 Directors of the Company.
(a) Upon the purchase of Shares pursuant to the Offer and for so long thereafter as Parent and
its Subsidiaries own in the aggregate more than 50% of the outstanding Shares (the “Board
Representation Period”), determined on a fully-diluted basis (as defined in
Section 1.1(a)), Parent shall be entitled to designate for appointment or election to the
Company Board, upon written notice to the Company, such number of directors, rounded up to the next
whole number, as is equal to the product obtained by multiplying the total number of directors on
the Company Board (after giving effect to the directors designated by Parent pursuant to this
sentence) by the percentage that the number of Shares so owned by Parent and its Subsidiaries bears
to the total number of Shares then outstanding. In furtherance thereof, the Company shall, upon
request of Parent, use its reasonable best efforts, subject to compliance with applicable
securities Laws and applicable rules of the NASDAQ Global Market (“NASDAQ”), to promptly
cause Parent’s designees (and any replacement designees in the event that any designee shall no
longer be on the Company Board) to be so appointed or elected to the Company Board and, in
furtherance thereof, to the extent necessary, use its reasonable best efforts to increase the size
of the Company Board or obtain the resignation of such number of its directors as is necessary to
give effect to the foregoing provision. During the Board Representation Period, subject to
Section 1.3(c), the Company will cause individuals designated by Parent to constitute such
number of members of each committee of the Company Board, rounded up to the next whole number, that
represents the same percentage as such individuals represent on the Company Board, other than any
committee established to take action under this Agreement which committee shall be composed only of
Independent Directors. Notwithstanding the foregoing, until the Effective Time, the Company Board
shall have at least two (2) directors who are directors of the Company on the date of this
Agreement and who are not officers of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (“Independent
Directors”); provided for the avoidance of doubt, the director elected by the holders
of the Series D-1 Preferred Stock,
pursuant to Section A.8 of the Series D-1 Preferred Stock Certificate of Designation may
constitute an Independent Director for purposes of this Section 1.3(a); and
provided, further, that if the number of Independent Directors shall be reduced
below two (2) for any reason whatsoever (or if immediately following
6
consummation of the Offer
there are not at least two (2) then-existing directors of the Company who are (A) Qualified Persons
and (B) willing to serve as Independent Directors), then the number of Independent Directors
required hereunder shall be one (1), unless the remaining Independent Director is able to identify
a person who is not then an officer or Affiliate of the Company, Parent or any of their respective
Subsidiaries (any such person being referred to herein as a “Qualified Person”; it being
understood that, for purposes of this definition, a person that would otherwise not be considered
an Affiliate of the Company shall not be deemed an Affiliate of the Company solely because he or
she is a director of the Company), willing to serve as an Independent Director, in which case such
remaining Independent Director shall be entitled to designate any such Qualified Person to fill
such vacancy, and such designated Qualified Person shall be deemed to be an Independent Director
for purposes of this Agreement, or if no Independent Directors then remain, the other directors
shall be required to designate two (2) Qualified Persons to fill such vacancies, and such persons
shall be deemed to be Independent Directors for purposes of this Agreement.
(b) The Company shall promptly take all actions required pursuant to Section 14(f) of the
Exchange Act and Rule 14f-l promulgated thereunder in order to fulfill its obligations under
Section 1.3(a), including mailing to the Company’s stockholders the information required by
such Section 14(f) and Rule 14f-1 (which the Company shall mail together with the Schedule 14D-9 if
it receives from Parent and Purchaser the information below on a basis timely to permit such
mailing) as is necessary to fulfill the Company’s obligations under Section 1.3(a). The
Company’s obligation to appoint Parent’s designees to the Company Board pursuant to
Section 1.3(a) shall be subject to compliance with Section 14(f) of the Exchange Act and
Rule 14f-1 promulgated thereunder and to Parent’s compliance with its obligations under the
following sentence. Parent and Purchaser shall supply the Company such information with respect to
Parent and Purchaser and their nominees, officers, directors and Affiliates required by such
Section 14(f) and Rule 14f-1 as is necessary in connection with the appointment of any of Parent’s
designees under Section 1.3(a), and Parent and Purchaser shall be solely responsible for
the accuracy and completeness of such information.
(c) Following the election or appointment of Parent’s designees pursuant to
Section 1.3(a) and prior to the Effective Time, the approval by affirmative vote or written
consent of a majority of the Independent Directors then in office (or, if there shall be only one
(1) Independent Director then in office, the Independent Director) (the “Independent Director
Approval”) shall be required to authorize (and such authorization shall constitute the
authorization of the Company Board and no other action on the part of the Company, including any
action by any other committee thereof or any other director of the Company, shall, unless otherwise
required by applicable Law, be required or permitted to authorize) (i) any amendment or termination
of this Agreement by the Company, (ii) any extension by the Company of time for performance of any
obligation or action under this Agreement by Parent or Purchaser, (iii) any waiver, exercise or
enforcement of any of the Company’s rights under this Agreement, (iv) any other action by the
Company which could adversely affect the interests of the stockholders of the Company (other than
Parent or any of its Affiliates) or (v) any amendment of the Company Charter Documents. The
Independent
Directors shall have the authority to retain such counsel and other advisors at the expense of
the Company as are reasonably appropriate to the exercise of their duties in connection with this
Agreement, subject to approval by the Company of the terms of such retention, which approval shall
not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. In
7
addition, the Independent Directors shall
have the authority to institute any action, on behalf of the Company, to enforce performance of
this Agreement.
SECTION 1.4 Stockholders Meeting.
(a) As promptly as practicable following the acceptance for payment of Shares by Parent or
Purchaser or any of their Affiliates pursuant to and in accordance with the terms of the Offer on
the Purchase Date (the “Acceptance Time”) (or, if later, following the termination of the
subsequent offering period, if any), if required by applicable Law in order to consummate the
Merger, the Company, acting through the Company Board, shall, in accordance with applicable Law and
the Company Charter Documents:
(i) duly call, give notice of, convene and hold an annual or special meeting of the Company
Stockholders and the holders of Series D-1 Preferred Stock (the “Series D-1 Holders”) for
the purposes of considering and taking action upon the adoption of this Agreement (the “Company
Stockholders Meeting”); and
(ii) in consultation with Parent, prepare and file with the SEC a preliminary proxy or
information statement relating to the Merger and this Agreement and obtain and furnish the
information required by the SEC to be included therein and, after consultation with Parent, respond
promptly to any comments made by the SEC with respect to the preliminary proxy or information

Delaware a certificate of merger (or, if applicable, a certificate of ownership and merger)
executed in accordance with the relevant provisions of the DGCL (the “Certificate of
Merger”). The Merger shall become effective upon the filing of the Certificate of Merger or at
such later time as is agreed to by the parties hereto and specified in the Certificate of Merger
(the time at which the Merger becomes effective is herein referred to as the “Effective
Time”).
SECTION 2.4 Effects of the Merger. The Merger shall have the effects set forth in the
DGCL. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, and subject thereto, at the Effective
Time, all the properties, rights, privileges, powers and franchises of the Company and Purchaser
shall vest in the Surviving Corporation, and all debts, liabilities and duties of the Company and
Purchaser shall become the debts, liabilities and duties of the Surviving Corporation.
SECTION 2.5 Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws of the Surviving Corporation. The
certificate of incorporation and bylaws of Purchaser, as in effect immediately prior to the
Effective Time, shall be the certificate of incorporation and bylaws of the Surviving Corporation
until thereafter amended as provided therein or by applicable Law (but subject to
Section 5.7).
SECTION 2.6 Directors and Officers of the Surviving Corporation.
(a) The directors of Purchaser immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be the directors
of the Surviving Corporation immediately following the Effective Time, until their respective
successors are duly elected or appointed and qualified or their earlier death, resignation or
removal in accordance with the certificate of incorporation and bylaws of the Surviving
Corporation.
9
(b) The officers of Purchaser immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be the officers of
the Surviving Corporation until their respective successors are duly appointed and qualified or
their earlier death, resignation or removal in accordance with the certificate of incorporation and
bylaws of the Surviving Corporation.
SECTION 2.7 Conversion of Securities. At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger
and without any action on the part of the holders of any securities of Purchaser or the Company:
(a) Each issued and outstanding share of capital stock of Purchaser shall be converted into
and become one (1) validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable share of common stock, par value
$0.01 per share, of the Surviving Corporation.
(b) Any shares of Company Common Stock that are owned by the Company as treasury stock and any
Shares or Series D-1 Shares owned by Parent, Purchaser, any other Subsidiary of Parent or a
Subsidiary of the Company shall be automatically canceled and shall cease to exist and no
consideration shall be delivered in exchange therefor.
(c) Each (i) Share (other than (x) Shares to be canceled in accordance with
Section 2.7(b) and (y) any Dissenting Shares), shall be converted into the right to receive
an amount of cash equal to the Offer Price payable upon surrender, in the manner provided in this
Agreement, to the holder of the certificate formerly representing such Share, without interest and
(ii) Series D-1 Share (other than (x) Series D-1 Shares to be canceled in accordance with
Section 2.7(b) and (y) any Dissenting Shares) shall be converted into the right to receive
an amount of cash equal to the product of the number of shares of Company Common Stock into which
such Series D-1 Shares are convertible pursuant to and in accordance with Section A.5 of the Series
D-1 Preferred Stock Certificate of Designation multiplied by the Offer Price payable upon
surrender, in the manner provided in this Agreement, to the holder of the certificate formerly
representing such Series D-1 Share, without interest (collectively, the “Merger
Consideration”). All such Shares and Series D-1 Shares, when so converted, shall no longer be
outstanding and shall automatically be canceled and shall cease to exist, and each holder of a
certificate which immediately prior to the Effective Time represented any such Shares or such
Series D-1 Shares shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive
the Merger Consideration therefor upon the surrender of such certificate in accordance with this
Agreement, without interest.
(d) The Merger Consideration shall be adjusted to reflect fully the effect of any
reclassification, stock split, reverse split, stock dividend (including any dividend or
distribution of securities convertible into Shares), reorganization, recapitalization or other like
change with respect to Shares, occurring (or for which a record date is established) after the
date of this Agreement and prior to the Effective Time.
SECTION 2.8 Exchange of Certificates.
(a) Paying Agent. Prior to the Effective Time, Parent shall designate a bank or trust
company reasonably acceptable to the Company to act as agent for the holders of Shares and the
holders of Series D-1 Shares in connection with the Merger (the “Paying Agent”) to
10
receive,
on terms reasonably acceptable to the Company, for the benefit of holders of Shares and the holders
of Series D-1 Shares, the aggregate Merger Consideration to which holders of Shares and holders of
Series D-1 Shares shall become entitled pursuant to Section 2.7(c). Parent shall deposit
such aggregate Merger Consideration with the Paying Agent at or prior to the Effective Time. Such
aggregate Merger Consideration deposited with the Paying Agent shall, pending its disbursement to
such holders, be invested by the Paying Agent in (i) direct obligations of the United States of
America, (ii) obligations for which the full faith and credit of the United States of America is
pledged to provide for the payment of principal and interest, (iii) commercial paper rated the
highest quality by either Xxxxx’x Investors Service, Inc. or Standard and Poor’s Ratings Services
or (iv) money market funds investing solely in a combination of the foregoing. Any interest and
other income resulting from such investments shall be the property of, and shall be paid to,
Parent. Parent shall promptly replace any funds deposited with the Paying Agent lost through any
investment made pursuant to this paragraph.
(b) Exchange Procedures. Promptly after the Effective Time (but in no event more than
three (3) Business Days thereafter), the Surviving Corporation shall cause the Paying Agent to mail
to each holder of record of a certificate or certificates (or evidence of shares in book-entry
form), which immediately prior to the Effective Time represented outstanding Shares (the
“Certificates”), whose shares were converted pursuant to Section 2.7(c) into the
right to receive the Merger Consideration and to each holder of record of a certificate or
certificates (or evidence of shares in book-entry form), which immediately prior to the Effective
Time represented outstanding Series D-1 Shares (the “Series D-1 Certificates”), whose
shares were converted pursuant to Section 2.7(c) into the right to receive the Merger
Consideration, (i) a letter of transmittal (which shall specify that delivery shall be effected,
and risk of loss and title to the Certificates and the Series D-1 Certificates shall pass, only
upon delivery of the Certificates and the Series D-1 Certificates to the Paying Agent, and which
shall be in such form and shall have such other customary provisions (including customary
provisions with respect to delivery of an “agent’s message” with respect to shares held in
book-entry form) as Parent may reasonably specify) and (ii) instructions for use in effecting the
surrender of the Certificates and the Series D-1 Certificates in exchange for payment of the Merger
Consideration with respect thereto. Upon surrender of a Certificate or a Series D-1 Certificate
for cancellation to the Paying Agent, together with such letter of transmittal, duly completed and
validly executed in accordance with the instructions (and such other customary documents as may
reasonably be required by the Paying Agent), the holder of such Certificate or such Series D-1
Certificate, as applicable, shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor the Merger
Consideration (less any applicable excise and withholding Taxes in accordance with
Section 2.8(g)), without interest, for each Share formerly represented by such Certificate
or each Series D-1 Share formerly represented by such Series D-1 Certificate, as applicable, and
the Certificate or Series D-1 Certificate so surrendered shall forthwith be canceled. If payment
of the Merger Consideration
is to be made to a Person other than the Person in whose name the surrendered Certificate or
Series D-1 Certificate is registered, it shall be a condition of payment that (x) the Certificate
or Series D-1 Certificate so surrendered shall be properly endorsed or shall otherwise be in proper
form for transfer and (y) the Person requesting such payment shall have paid any transfer and other
Taxes required by reason of the payment of the Merger Consideration to a Person other than the
registered holder of such Certificate or Series D-1 Certificate surrendered or shall have
established to the reasonable satisfaction of the Surviving Corporation that such Tax either has
been paid or is not applicable. Until surrendered as contemplated by this Section 2.8,
each
11
Certificate and Series D-1 Certificate shall be deemed at any time after the Effective Time to
represent only the right to receive the Merger Consideration with respect thereto as contemplated
by this Article II, without interest.
(c) Transfer Books; No Further Ownership Rights in Company Stock. The Merger
Consideration paid in respect of Shares or Series D-1 Shares upon the surrender for exchange of
Certificates or Series D-1 Certificates, as applicable, in accordance with the terms of this
Article II shall be deemed to have been paid in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining
to the Shares previously represented by such Certificates or the Series D-1 Shares previously
represented by such Series D-1 Certificate, as applicable, and at the close of business on the day
on which the Effective Time occurs, the stock transfer books of the Company shall be closed and
thereafter there shall be no further registration of transfers on the stock transfer books of the
Surviving Corporation of the Shares or the Series D-1 Shares that were outstanding immediately
prior to the Effective Time. From and after the Effective Time, the holders of Certificates that
evidenced ownership of Shares outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and holders of
Series D-1 Certificates that evidenced ownership of Series D-1 Shares outstanding immediately prior
to the Effective Time shall cease to have any rights with respect to such shares, except as
otherwise provided for herein or by applicable Law. Subject to the last sentence of
Section 2.8(e), if, at any time after the Effective Time, Certificates or Series D-1
Certificates are presented to the Surviving Corporation for any reason, they shall be canceled and
exchanged as provided in this Article II.
(d) Lost, Stolen or Destroyed Certificates. If any Certificate or Series D-1
Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact
by the Person claiming such Certificate or such Series D-1 Certificate, as applicable, 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 Parent may direct, as indemnity against any claim that may be
made against it with respect to such Certificate or such Series D-1 Certificate, the Paying Agent
will pay, in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate or Series D-1 Certificate, the
applicable Merger Consideration to be paid in respect of the shares formerly represented thereby,
as contemplated by this Article II.
(e) Termination of Fund. At any time following six (6) months after the Closing Date,
the Surviving Corporation shall be entitled to require the Paying Agent to deliver to it any funds
(including any interest received with respect thereto) that had been made available to the Paying
Agent and which have not been disbursed to holders of Certificates or holders of Series D-1
Certificates, and thereafter such holders shall be entitled to look only to the Surviving
Corporation (subject to abandoned property, escheat or other similar Laws) as general creditors
thereof with respect to the payment of any Merger Consideration that may be payable upon surrender
of any Certificates or Series D-1 Certificates held by such holders, as determined pursuant to this
Agreement, without any interest thereon. Any amounts remaining unclaimed by such holders at such
time at which such amounts would otherwise escheat to or become property of any Governmental
Authority shall become, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, the property of Parent free and
clear of all claims or interests of any Person previously entitled thereto.
12
(f) No Liability. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary,
none of the parties hereto, the Surviving Corporation or the Paying Agent shall be liable to any
Person for Merger Consideration delivered to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned
property, escheat or similar Law.
(g) Withholding Taxes. Parent, Purchaser, the Surviving Corporation and the Paying
Agent shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise payable to a holder
of Shares, Company Options or Series D-1 Shares pursuant to this Agreement such amounts as may be
required to be deducted and withheld with respect to the making of such payment under the Code, or
under any provision of state, local or foreign Tax Law. To the extent amounts are so withheld and
paid over to the appropriate taxing authority, the withheld amounts shall be treated for all
purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the holder of the Shares, Company Options or
Series D-1 Shares in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made.
SECTION 2.9 Appraisal Rights. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the
contrary, Shares and Series D-1 Shares that are issued and outstanding immediately prior to the
Effective Time and which are held by a stockholder who did not vote in favor of the Merger (or
consent thereto in writing) and who is entitled to demand and properly demands appraisal of such
shares pursuant to, and who complies in all respects with, the provisions of Section 262 of the
DGCL (each, a “Dissenting Stockholder”), shall not be converted into or be exchangeable for
the right to receive the Merger Consideration therefor (the “Dissenting Shares”), but
instead such Dissenting Stockholder shall be entitled to payment of the fair value of such
Dissenting Shares in accordance with the provisions of Section 262 of the DGCL (and at the
Effective Time, such Dissenting Shares shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be
canceled and shall cease to exist, and such Dissenting Stockholder 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 the DGCL), unless and until such Dissenting
Stockholder shall have failed to perfect or shall have effectively withdrawn or lost rights to
appraisal under the DGCL. If any Dissenting Stockholder shall have failed to perfect or shall have
effectively withdrawn or lost such right, such Dissenting Stockholder’s Shares shall thereupon be
treated as if they had been converted into and become exchangeable for the right to receive, as of
the Effective Time, the Merger Consideration for each such Share or Series D-1 Share, in accordance
with Section 2.7(c), without any interest thereon. The Company shall give Parent
(i) prompt notice of any written demands for appraisal of any Shares or Series D-1 Shares,
attempted withdrawals of such demands and any other instruments served pursuant to the DGCL and
received by the Company relating to stockholders’ rights of appraisal, and (ii) the opportunity to
participate in all negotiations and proceedings with respect to demands for appraisal under the
DGCL. Prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall not, without the prior written consent of
Parent or as otherwise required by an order, decree, ruling or injunction of a court of competent
jurisdiction, make any payment with respect to, or settle or compromise or offer to settle or
compromise, any such demand, or agree to do any of the foregoing.
SECTION 2.10 Company Options. Prior to the Purchase Date, the Company shall take all
actions necessary to provide that each Company Option outstanding immediately prior to the
Effective Time (whether or not then vested or exercisable) shall be terminated and converted at
the Effective Time into the right to receive, in full satisfaction of such Company Option, a
cash
13
amount equal to the Option Consideration (if any) for each share of Company Common Stock then
subject to the Company Option. The Option Consideration shall be paid within five (5) Business
Days following the Effective Time. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Parent and the Company shall be
entitled to deduct and withhold from the Option Consideration otherwise payable such amounts as may
be required to be deducted and withheld with respect to the making of such payment under the Code,
or any provision of state, local or foreign Tax Law. For purposes of this Agreement, “Option
Consideration” means, with respect to any share of Company Common Stock issuable under a
particular Company Option, an amount equal to the excess, if any, of (i) the Offer Price over
(ii) the exercise price payable in respect of such share of Company Common Stock issuable under
such Company Option rounded down to the nearest cent. As of the Effective Time, any Option with an
exercise price equal to or greater than the Offer Price shall be canceled without consideration and
be of no further force or effect. The Company Board (or, if appropriate, any committee thereof
administering the Company Stock Plans) shall adopt such resolutions or take such other actions as
may be required to effect the foregoing. Any Company Options held by any director of the Company
that do not vest and are thereby cancelled as a result of such director’s resignation pursuant to
the provisions of Section 1.3(a) shall nevertheless be deemed to be outstanding for
purposes of the payments to be made in respect of Company Options outstanding immediately prior to
the Effective Time (whether or not then vested or exercisable) pursuant to this Section
2.10.
ARTICLE III
Representations and Warranties of the Company
The Company represents and warrants to Parent and Purchaser that except as set forth in the
letter delivered by the Company to Parent simultaneously with the execution of this Agreement (the
“Company Disclosure Letter”) or the Company SEC Documents filed prior to the date of this
Agreement (the “Filed Company SEC Documents”) (excluding all exhibits, annexes and
schedules thereto and documents incorporated by reference therein or any risk factors or
forward-looking statements and any other disclosures therein to the extent they are predictive or
forward-looking in nature) (it being understood that any matter set forth in the Company Disclosure
Letter or in such Filed Company SEC Documents shall be deemed disclosed for all sections and
subsections of this Agreement only to the extent that the applicability of such disclosure to such
section or subsection is readily apparent):
SECTION 3.1 Organization, Standing and Corporate Power.
(a) 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 authority necessary to
own or lease all of its properties and assets and to carry on its business as it is now being
conducted. The Company is duly licensed or qualified to do business and is in good standing 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 or held under license by it makes such licensing or
qualification necessary, except where the failure to be so licensed, qualified or in good standing would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be
expected to have a Company Material Adverse Effect. For purposes of this Agreement, “Company
Material Adverse Effect” shall mean any change, event, occurrence, state of facts or
14
development which has a material adverse effect on (1) the business, results of operations or
financial condition of the Company and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole or (2) the ability of the
Company to perform its obligations under this Agreement or to consummate the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement by the Outside Date; provided that with respect to clause
(1) above, Company Material Adverse Effect shall not include any changes, events, occurrences,
state of facts or developments, to the extent arising out of or resulting from (i) changes after
the date of this Agreement in conditions generally in the United States or global economy or in the
capital or financial markets, including changes in interest or exchange rates, (ii) changes after
the date of this Agreement in general legal, regulatory, political, economic or business conditions
or changes in generally accepted accounting principles that, in either case, generally affect the
industry in which the Company and its Subsidiaries conduct business, (iii) the negotiation,
execution, announcement or performance of this Agreement or the consummation of the Transactions,
including the impact thereof on relationships, contractual or otherwise, with customers, suppliers,
distributors, partners, collaborators or employees, (iv) acts of war, sabotage or terrorism, or any
escalation or worsening of any such acts of war, sabotage or terrorism threatened or underway as of
the date of this Agreement, (v) storms, earthquakes or other natural disasters, (vi) the initiation
of any litigation by any stockholder of the Company relating to this Agreement, the Offer or the
Merger, (vii) any decline in the market price, or change in trading volume, of the Company Common
Stock or any failure of the Company to meet publicly announced revenue or earnings projections;
provided that the underlying changes, events, occurrences, state of facts or developments
that caused or contributed to any such decline, change or failure may otherwise be taken into
consideration in determining whether a Company Material Adverse Effect has occurred, (viii) any
delay after the date of this Agreement in any of the Company’s ongoing research programs resulting
from any adverse changes, developments, circumstances, events or occurrences, or (ix) any action
taken by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries which is expressly required by this Agreement or
that has been expressly consented to by Parent under the terms of this Agreement, except in each of
cases (i), (ii), (iii), (iv), (v), (vi) and (vii), to the extent that such changes affect the
Company and its Subsidiaries in a disproportionate manner relative to other participants in the
businesses and industries in which the Company and its Subsidiaries operate.
(b) Each of the Company’s Subsidiaries is a corporation or other organization duly organized,
validly existing and in good standing under the Laws of the jurisdiction of its organization. Each
of the Company’s Subsidiaries is duly licensed or qualified to do business and is in good standing
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 or held under license by it makes such
licensing or qualification necessary, except where the failure to be so licensed, qualified or in
good standing would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Company
Material Adverse Effect. Section 3.1(b) of the Company Disclosure Letter sets forth a true
and complete list of each Subsidiary of the Company (including its name and form of organization,
its jurisdiction of incorporation or organization and the number and type of outstanding equity
securities and a list of the holders of such securities). All the outstanding shares of capital
stock, voting securities or other equity interests of each Subsidiary of the Company (except for directors’ qualifying shares or the like) are duly authorized, have been
validly issued, are fully paid, nonassessable and free of preemptive rights, and are owned by the
Company or another wholly-owned Subsidiary of the Company free and clear of all liens, pledges,
security interests and transfer restrictions, except for such transfer restrictions of general
15
applicability as may be provided under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the rules and
regulations promulgated thereunder (the “Securities Act”), and other applicable securities
Laws and rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. There are no (i) outstanding options or
other rights of any kind which obligate the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to issue or deliver
any shares of capital stock, voting securities or other equity interests of any such Subsidiary or
any securities or obligations convertible into or exchangeable into or exercisable for any shares
of capital stock, voting securities or other equity interest of a Subsidiary of the Company,
(ii) outstanding obligations of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to repurchase, redeem or
otherwise acquire any securities or obligations convertible into or exchangeable into or
exercisable for any shares of capital stock, voting securities or other equity interests of a
Subsidiary of the Company; or (iii) other options, calls, warrants or other rights, agreements,
arrangements or commitments of any character relating to the issued or unissued capital stock of
any Subsidiary to which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is a party.
(c) The Company has made available to Parent complete and correct copies of the certificate of
incorporation and bylaws (or other comparable organizational documents) of the Company and each of
its Subsidiaries, in each case as amended through the date of this Agreement (the “Company
Charter Documents”).
(d) The Company does not control directly or indirectly or own, directly or indirectly, any
capital stock of, or other voting securities or equity or similar interests in, or investment in or
have any obligation to invest in, any corporation, partnership, limited liability company, joint
venture, trust or other business association or entity or Person which is not a Subsidiary of the
Company listed on Section 3.1(b) of the Company Disclosure Letter.

conversion of the Series D-1 Preferred Stock, (v) no shares of Company Common Stock were held by
the Company in its treasury, (vi) no shares of Company Preferred Stock were held by the Company in
its treasury and (vii) no shares or Series A Participating Preferred Stock were outstanding. All
outstanding shares of Company Common Stock, and all shares of Company Common Stock reserved for

have been duly authorized and all outstanding shares of Company Common Stock are, and all shares of
Company Common Stock reserved for issuance upon exercise of the Company Options or upon conversion

16
respective terms, will upon

of Company Preferred Stock have been duly authorized and all outstanding shares of Series D-1
Preferred Stock are validly issued, fully paid, nonassesable and free of preemptive rights.
Section 3.2(a) of the Company Disclosure Letter sets forth a correct and complete list, as
of February 25, 2008, of the outstanding Company Options, the number of shares of Company Common
Stock underlying such Company Options, the holders, exercise prices, dates of grant, vesting
schedules and expiration dates thereof and the Company Stock Plan (if any) under which such Company
Option was granted. Since February 22, 2008, the Company has not issued, or reserved for issuance,
any shares of its capital stock or any securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable
for any shares of its capital stock, other than or pursuant to the Company Options referred to
above that are outstanding as of the date of this Agreement.
(b) Except as set forth in Section 3.2(a), as of the date of this Agreement, (A) there
are no outstanding options, stock appreciation rights or other rights of any kind which obligate
the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to issue or deliver any shares of capital stock, voting

securities having the right to vote) on any matters on which stockholders of the Company or any
such Subsidiary may vote.
SECTION 3.3 Authority; Noncontravention; Voting Requirements.
(a) The Company has all necessary corporate power and authority to execute and deliver this
Agreement and, subject to obtaining the Company Stockholder Approval as contemplated by
Section 1.4, to perform its obligations hereunder and to consummate the Transactions. The
execution, delivery and performance by the Company of this Agreement, and the consummation by it of
the Transactions, have been duly authorized and approved by all necessary corporate action on the part of the Company (including by the Company Board), and
except for obtaining the Company Stockholder Approval (to the extent required by the DGCL), no
other corporate action or proceedings on the part of the Company or any of its stockholders are
necessary to authorize the execution, delivery and performance by the Company of this Agreement and
the consummation by it of the Transactions. This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by
the Company and, assuming due authorization, execution and delivery
17
hereof by the other parties
hereto, constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Company, enforceable against the
Company in accordance with its terms, except that such enforceability (i) may be limited by
bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer, reorganization, moratorium and other similar Laws of
general application affecting or relating to the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and
(ii) is subject to general principles of equity, whether considered in a proceeding at Law or in
equity (the “Bankruptcy and Equity Exception”).
(b) The Company approves of and consents to the Offer, and represents and warrants that the
Company Board, at a meeting duly called and held, has, subject to the terms and conditions set
forth in this Agreement, unanimously (i) approved this Agreement, and deemed this Agreement and the
Transactions advisable, fair to and in the best interests of the Company Stockholders;
(ii) approved this Agreement and the Transactions, including the Offer and the Merger, in all
respects, and such approval constitutes approval of this Agreement and the Transactions and the

documents incorporated by reference therein, the “Company SEC Documents”). As of their
respective effective dates (in the case of Company SEC Documents that are registration statements
filed pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Act) and as of their respective SEC filing
dates (in the case of all other documents), the Company SEC Documents and all documents filed from
and after December 31, 2004 by the Company with the SEC on a voluntary basis on Current Reports on
Form 8-K (the “Company Current Reports”) complied in all material respects with applicable
Law, including the Exchange Act, the Securities Act and SOX, as the case may be, and none of the
Company SEC Documents or the Company Current Reports as of such respective dates contained any
untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a 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. No Subsidiary of the
Company is, or has at any time since December 31, 2004 been, subject to the reporting
requirements of Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act.
(b) The consolidated financial statements of the Company included in the Company SEC Documents
(the “Company Financial Statements”) have been prepared in accordance with GAAP (except, in
the case of unaudited interim statements, as indicated in the notes thereto) applied on a
consistent basis during the periods involved (except as may be indicated in the notes thereto) and
fairly present in all material respects the consolidated financial position of the Company and its
consolidated Subsidiaries as of the dates thereof and the consolidated results of their operations
and cash flows for the periods then ended (subject, in the
19
case of unaudited interim statements, to
normal year-end audit adjustments which were not and would not, individually or in the aggregate,
reasonably be expected to be material). The books and records of the Company and each of its
Subsidiaries have been, and are being, maintained in all material respects in accordance with
applicable legal and accounting requirements, and the Company Financial Statements are consistent
in all material respects with such books and records.
(c) Except as disclosed in Section 3.5(c) of the Company Disclosure Letter, neither
the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries has any liabilities of any nature, whether accrued,
contingent or otherwise (“Liabilities”), except Liabilities (i) reflected in or reserved
against on the most recent financial statements of the Company and included in the Company SEC
Documents filed with the SEC prior to the date of this Agreement, (ii) incurred in the ordinary
course of business, (iii) that have been discharged or paid in full in the ordinary course of
business, (iv) that are expressly contemplated by this Agreement or (v) as would not, individually

(d) The Company and its Subsidiaries have designed and maintain a system of internal controls
over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act)
sufficient to provide reasonable assurances regarding the reliability of financial reporting and
the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with GAAP. The Company
(i) has designed and maintains “disclosure controls and procedures” (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e)
and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act) to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the
Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed,
summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and is
accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management as appropriate to allow timely decisions
regarding required disclosure and to make the certifications required pursuant to Section 302 and
906 of SOX, and (ii) has disclosed, based on its most recent evaluation of such disclosure controls
and procedures prior to the date of this Agreement, to the Company’s auditors and the audit
committee of the Company Board (A) any “significant deficiencies” and “material weaknesses” in the
design or operation of “internal controls over financial reporting” that are reasonably likely to
adversely affect in any material respect the Company’s ability to record, process, summarize and
report financial information and (B) any fraud, whether or not material, that involves management
or other employees who have a significant role in the Company’s internal controls over financial
reporting. For purposes of this Agreement, the terms “significant deficiency” and “material
weakness” shall have the meanings assigned to them by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board
in Auditing Standard No. 2, as in effect on the date of this Agreement, and the term “internal controls over financial
reporting” shall have the meaning assigned to it by Rule 13a-15(f).
(e) Each of the principal executive officer of the Company and the principal financial officer
of the Company (or each former principal executive officer of the Company and each former principal

13a-14 or 15d-14 under the Exchange Act and Sections 302 and 906 of SOX with respect to the Company
SEC Documents, and the statements contained in such certifications were complete and correct on the
date such certifications were made. For purposes of this Agreement, “principal executive officer”
and “principal financial officer” shall have the
20
meanings given to such terms in SOX. Neither the
Company nor any of its Subsidiaries has outstanding (nor has arranged or modified since the
enactment of SOX) any “extensions of credit” (within the meaning of Section 402 of SOX ) to
directors or executive officers (as defined in Rule 3b-7 under the Exchange Act) of the Company or
any of its Subsidiaries.
(f) Except as set forth in Section 3.5(f) of the Company Disclosure Letter, since

respective internal accounting controls, including any material complaint, allegation, assertion or
claim that the Company or any of its Subsidiaries has engaged in questionable accounting or
auditing practices, and (ii) no attorney representing the Company or any of its Subsidiaries,

thereof or to any director or officer of the Company.

SECTION 3.11 Employee Benefits and Labor Matters.
(a) Section 3.11(a) of the Company Disclosure Letter lists each material Company Plan.
The Company has made available to Parent correct and complete copies of (i)
each Company Plan and any amendments thereto (or if the Company Plan is not a written Company
Plan, a description of the Company Plan), (ii) the most recent annual reports on Form 5500 required
to be filed with the Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) with respect to each Company Plan
(if any such report was required), (iii) the most recent summary plan description for each Company
Plan for which such summary plan description is required, (iv) any related trust, agreement,
insurance contract or other funding vehicle, (v) the two most recent annual financial reports, if
any, (vi) any reports or summaries required under ERISA or the Code and (vii) the most recent
determination letter received from the IRS with respect to each Company Plan intended to qualify
under Section 401 of the Code. Each Company Plan that is a Company Stock Plan is marked with an
asterisk (*) in Section 3.11(a) of the Company Disclosure Letter. Each Company Plan
maintained, contributed to or required to be contributed to by the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries has been administered in accordance with its terms in all material respects. The
Company, its Subsidiaries and all the Company Plans are all in material compliance with the
applicable provisions of ERISA, the Code and all other applicable Laws. Each Company Plan that is
intended to be Tax qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code has received a favorable
determination letter from the IRS, and, to the Knowledge of the Company, there are no existing
circumstances or any events that could reasonably be expected to adversely affect the qualified
status of any such plan. There has been no amendment to, announcement by the Company or any
Subsidiary relating to, or change in employee participation or coverage under, any Company Plan
that would increase materially the expense of maintaining such plan above the level of the expense
incurred therefor for the most recent fiscal year, except as required by applicable Law or as
provided in Section 3.11(a) of the Company Disclosure Letter. Neither the Company nor any
of its Subsidiaries maintains or, within the past six (6) years, has contributed or has been
obligated to contribute to an “employee benefit plan” subject to Title IV of ERISA, a multiemployer
plan, as defined in Section 3(37) of ERISA, or an “employee benefit plan” subject to Sections 4063
or 4064 of ERISA.
(b) Neither the Company, any Subsidiary, any Company Plan, any trust created thereunder, nor,
to the Knowledge of the Company, any trustee or third-party administrator of the foregoing, has
engaged in a transaction in connection with which the Company or any Subsidiary, any Company Plan,
any such trust, or any trustee or administrator
26
of the foregoing, or any party dealing with any
Company Plan or any such trust could be subject to either a civil penalty assessed pursuant to
Section 409 or 502(i) of ERISA or a tax imposed pursuant to Section 4975 or 4976 of the Code, other
than penalties or taxes that, would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected
to be material.
(c) Except as disclosed in Section 3.11(c) of the Company Disclosure Letter or the
Company SEC Documents, no Company Plan provides medical, surgical, hospitalization, death or
similar benefits (whether or not insured) for employees or former employees of the Company or any
Subsidiary for periods extending beyond their retirement or other termination of service, other
than (i) coverage mandated by applicable Law, (ii) death benefits under any pension plan, or (iii)
benefits the full costs of which are borne by the current or former employee (or his beneficiary).
(d) The Company acknowledges that certain payments have been made or are to be made and
certain benefits have been granted or are to be granted according to employment compensation,
severance and other arrangements or agreements or pursuant to the terms of this
Agreement (collectively, the “Company Compensation Arrangements”) to certain holders
of Company Common Stock and other securities of the Company (the “Covered Stockholders”).
Amounts payable under the Company Compensation Arrangements (i) were or are being paid or granted
as compensation for past services performed, future services to be performed or future services to
be refrained from performing, by the Covered Stockholders (and matters incidental thereto) and (ii)
are not calculated based on the number of shares of Company Common Stock to be tendered in the
Offer by the applicable Covered Stockholder. In connection therewith, the Compensation Committee
of the Company Board has adopted resolutions, substantially in the form set forth in Section
3.11(d) of the Company Disclosure Letter, approving the Company Compensation Arrangements, in
accordance with the “safe harbor” requirements of Rule 14d-10(d)(2) under the Exchange Act and the
instructions thereto, to the extent required (collectively the “14d-10 Approvals”). The

upon, any representations, warranties or statements (written or oral), whether express or implied,
made by any Person, that are not expressly set forth in this Agreement. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, each of Parent and Purchaser acknowledges that, except as expressly
set forth in this Agreement, no representations or warranties are made with respect to any
projections, forecasts, estimates, budgets or information as to prospects with respect to the
Company and its Subsidiaries that may have been made available to Parent, Purchaser or any of their
respective representatives.

thereof, or otherwise acquire or agree to acquire any assets or rights, if the entering into of a
definitive agreement relating to or the consummation of such acquisition, merger or consolidation
would reasonably be expected to have any of the effects described in clauses (i) through
(iii) above.
SECTION 5.2 No Solicitations.
(a) The Company shall not, nor shall it authorize or permit any of its Subsidiaries, any of
its or their respective directors, officers or employees or any investment banker, financial
advisor, attorney, accountant or other advisor, agent or representative retained by the Company or
any Subsidiary in connection with the Transactions (collectively, “Representatives”) to,
directly or indirectly through another Person, (i) solicit, initiate, or knowingly encourage or
facilitate (including by way of furnishing information) any inquiries or the making, submission or
announcement of any proposal or offer that constitutes or is reasonably likely to lead to a
Takeover Proposal, or (ii) other than informing Persons of the provisions contained in this
Section 5.2, enter into, continue or participate in any discussions or negotiations
regarding any Takeover Proposal, or furnish any information concerning the Company and its
Subsidiaries to any Person in connection with any Takeover Proposal, or otherwise cooperate with or
take any other action to knowingly facilitate any effort or attempt to make or implement a Takeover
Proposal. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 5.2 to the contrary, at any time prior
to the Acceptance Time, the Company may, upon a good faith determination by the Company Board
(after receiving the advice of its outside counsel) that failure to take such action would be
reasonably likely to result in a failure of the Company Board to comply with its fiduciary duties
to the Company Stockholders under applicable Law, and after giving Parent prompt written notice of
such determination, in response to an unsolicited bona fide written Takeover Proposal made after
the date of this Agreement that the Company Board determines in good faith (after receiving advice
of its outside counsel and a financial advisor of nationally recognized reputation) constitutes or
is reasonably likely to result in a Superior Proposal, (A) furnish information with respect to the
Company and its Subsidiaries to the Person making such Takeover Proposal (and its Representatives)
pursuant to a confidentiality agreement containing terms and conditions no more favorable to and no
less restrictive of such Person than those contained in the Confidentiality Agreement are to
Parent, except that such confidentiality agreement between the Company and such Person shall not
contain any provisions that would prevent the Company from complying with its obligations to
provide the required disclosure to Parent pursuant to this Section 5.2 and shall permit
such Person to make a Takeover Proposal; provided that all such information (to the extent
that such written information that has not been previously provided or made available to Parent) is
promptly, and in no event later than twenty-
42
four (24) hours after delivery to such Person, provided
or made available to Parent, and (B) participate in discussions or negotiations with the Person
making such Takeover Proposal (and its Representatives) regarding such Takeover Proposal. Upon
execution of this Agreement, the Company shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries and its and their
respective Representatives to, immediately cease and cause to be terminated all existing
discussions or negotiations with any Person previously conducted with respect to any Takeover
Proposal, and will request, to the extent permitted under the applicable confidentiality agreement,
the prompt return of any confidential information previously furnished to such Persons that has not
been previously returned to the Company. Any violation of the restrictions set forth in this
Section 5.2 by any Representative of the Company or its Subsidiaries shall be deemed to be
a breach of this Section 5.2 by the Company.
(b) Except as expressly permitted by this Section 5.2(b), the Company Board shall not
(i)(A) withdraw, modify or qualify, in a manner adverse to Parent, the Company Recommendation or
(B) adopt, recommend or propose publicly to adopt or recommend, to the
Company Stockholders a Takeover Proposal (any action described in this clause (i) being
referred to as a “Company Adverse Recommendation Change”) (it being understood and agreed
that (x) any “stop, look and listen” communication by the Company Board to the Company Stockholders
pursuant to Rule 14d-9(f) of the Exchange Act shall not constitute a Company Adverse Recommendation
Change and (y) any change or development relating to any clinical trial of one or more products or
product candidates of the Company or its Subsidiaries or any determination or communication by the
FDA or any other Governmental Authority relating thereto will not be a basis for a Company Adverse
Recommendation Change), or (ii) authorize the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to enter into any
letter of intent, memorandum of understanding, agreement in principle or merger, acquisition or
similar agreement with respect to, or that is intended to or could reasonably be expected to lead
to, any Takeover Proposal (other than a confidentiality agreement referred to in
Section 5.2(a)) (each, a “Company Acquisition Agreement”). Notwithstanding the
foregoing, at any time prior to the Acceptance Time and subject to the proviso of this sentence:
(x) the Company Board may make a Company Adverse Recommendation Change, upon a good faith
determination by the Company Board (after receiving the advice of its outside counsel) that failure
to take such action would be reasonably likely to result in a failure of the Company Board to
comply with its fiduciary duties to the Company Stockholders under applicable Law, and (y) if the
Company Board receives a Takeover Proposal that the Company Board reasonably determines (after
receiving the advice of its outside counsel and a financial advisor of nationally recognized
reputation) constitutes a Superior Proposal, and that was unsolicited after the date of this
Agreement and did not otherwise result from a material breach of this Section 5.2, the
Company or its Subsidiaries may enter into a Company Acquisition Agreement with respect to such
Superior Proposal if the Company shall have complied with the provisions of the following sentence
and, immediately prior to entering into such Company Acquisition Agreement, terminates this
Agreement pursuant to Section 7.1(d)(ii) and paid the Termination Fee and Expense Payment
pursuant to Section 7.3(a); provided, however, that the Company shall not
be entitled to exercise its right to make a Company Adverse Recommendation Change, terminate this
Agreement pursuant to Section 7.1(d)(ii) or enter into any Company Acquisition Agreement
unless: (1) the Company has provided to Parent five (5) Business Days prior written notice (an
“Alternative Transaction Notice”), which Alternative Transaction Notice shall specify that
the Company Board is prepared to make a Company Adverse Recommendation Change, terminate this
Agreement pursuant to
43
Section 7.1(d)(ii) or enter into any Company Acquisition Agreement
unless: (1) the Company has provided to Parent five (5) Business Days prior written notice (an
“Alternative Transaction Notice”), which Alternative Transaction Notice shall specify that
the Company Board is prepared to make a Company Adverse Recommendation Change, terminate this
Agreement pursuant to Section 7.1(d)(ii) and/or enter into any Company Acquisition
Agreement, as applicable, and, in the case of a Takeover Proposal that the Company Board has
determined constitutes a Superior Proposal, shall attach the most current version of any written
agreement relating to such Takeover Proposal and advising Parent that the Company Board has
determined that such Takeover Proposal is a Superior Proposal and that the Company Board intends to
enter into an agreement providing for such Superior Proposal, (2) during such five (5) Business Day
period, if requested by Parent, the Company has engaged in good-faith negotiations with Parent to
amend this Agreement in such a manner that the Takeover Proposal that was determined to constitute
a Superior Proposal no longer is a Superior Proposal and (3) at 5:00 p.m., New York time, at the
end of the fifth (5th) Business Day following the date of receipt of the Alternative
Transaction Notice (or, in the event that the Takeover Proposal has been materially revised or
modified, at 5:00 p.m., New York time, on the fifth (5th) Business Day following the
date of receipt of notice of such material revision or modification, if later), such
Takeover Proposal has not been withdrawn and continues to constitute a Superior Proposal
(taking into account all changes to the terms of this Agreement agreed to by Parent). It is
understood and agreed that an Alternative Transaction Notice shall be required for a Company
Adverse Recommendation Change, regardless of whether it was made in response to or as a result of a
Superior Proposal.
(c) In addition to the obligations of the Company set forth in Sections 5.2(a) and
5.2(b), the Company shall promptly (and in any event within twenty-four (24) hours after
learning of the relevant information) advise Parent in writing of its receipt of any Takeover
Proposal and the material terms and conditions of any such Takeover Proposal (including any changes
to material terms of such Takeover Proposal) and the identity of the Person making any such
Takeover Proposal. The Company shall keep Parent fully informed of the status and material terms
(including any change to the material terms of such Takeover Proposal) of any Takeover Proposal,
and shall provide Parent with copies of all Takeover Proposals (and amendments or material
modifications of such Takeover Proposals) and related agreements, draft agreements exchanged by the
parties and modifications thereof.
(d) For purposes of this Agreement:
“Takeover Proposal” means any inquiry, proposal or offer from any Person (other
than Parent and its Subsidiaries) relating to any (A) direct or indirect acquisition or
purchase, in one transaction or a series of related transactions, of assets of the Company
and its Subsidiaries (including securities of Subsidiaries, but excluding sales of assets in
the ordinary course of business) equal to 25% or more of the Company’s consolidated assets
or to which 25% or more of the Company’s revenues, net income or earnings on a consolidated
basis are attributable, (B) acquisition of 25% or more of the outstanding Company Common
Stock (on a fully-diluted basis), (C) tender offer or exchange offer that if consummated
would result in any Person beneficially owning 25% or more of the outstanding Company Common
Stock (on a fully-diluted basis) or (D) merger, consolidation, share exchange, business
combination, recapitalization, liquidation, dissolution, joint venture or similar
transaction involving the Company or any of its Subsidiaries; in each case, other than the
Transactions.
“Superior Proposal” means an unsolicited bona fide written Takeover Proposal
obtained not in breach of this Section 5.2 to acquire, directly or indirectly, for
44
consideration consisting of cash and/or securities, more than 75% of the outstanding Company
Common Stock (on a fully-diluted basis) or more than 75% of the assets of the Company and
its Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis, made by a third party, and which is otherwise on
terms and conditions which the Company Board determines in its good faith and reasonable
judgment (after receiving the advice of a financial advisor of national reputation and in
light of all relevant circumstances, including all the terms and conditions of such proposal
and this Agreement) to be (A) more favorable to the Company Stockholders than the Offer, the
Merger and the other Transactions, taken as a whole, (B) is reasonably likely to be
consummated on the terms so proposed, taking into account all relevant financial,
regulatory, legal and other aspects of such proposal, including any conditions; and (C) for
which financing, to the extent required, is then fully committed.
(e) For purposes of this Section 5.2, on a “fully-diluted basis” means the number of
Shares then issued and outstanding plus all shares of Company Common Stock which the Company may be
required to issue as of such date pursuant to options, warrants, convertible securities or similar
obligations regardless of the conversion or exercise price, the vesting schedule or other terms and
conditions thereof.
(f) Nothing in this Section 5.2 shall prohibit the Company Board from (i) taking and
disclosing to the Company Stockholders a position contemplated by Rule 14e-2(a), Rule 14d-9 or Item
1012(a) of Regulation M-A promulgated under the Exchange Act, or other applicable Law, if the
Company Board determines, after receiving the advice of its outside counsel, that failure to so
disclose such position could constitute a violation of applicable Law, or (ii) filing this
Agreement and any amendment hereto, together with a description of its terms, on a Form 8-K with
the SEC; provided that in no event shall the Company or the Company Board or any committee
of the Company Board take, or agree or resolve to take, any action prohibited by Section
5.2(b).
SECTION 5.3 Efforts to Consummate.
(a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, each of the parties hereto shall
cooperate with the other party and use (and shall cause its respective Subsidiaries to use) its
respective reasonable best efforts, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, to promptly
(i) take, or cause to be taken, all actions, and do, or cause to be done, all things, necessary,
proper or advisable to cause the conditions to the Offer and the Closing to be satisfied as
promptly as practicable and to consummate and make effective, in the most expeditious manner
practicable, the Transactions, including preparing and filing promptly and fully all documentation
to effect all necessary filings, notices, petitions, statements, registrations, submissions of
information, applications and other documents (including any required or recommended filings under
applicable Antitrust Laws), and (ii) obtain all approvals, consents, registrations, permits,
authorizations and other confirmations from any Governmental Authority or third party necessary,
proper or advisable to consummate the Transactions. For purposes hereof, “Antitrust Laws”
means the Xxxxxxx Act, as amended, the Xxxxxxx Act, as amended, the HSR Act, the Federal Trade
Commission Act, as amended, and all other applicable Laws issued by a Governmental Authority that
are designed or intended to prohibit, restrict or regulate actions
45
having the purpose or effect of
monopolization or restraint of trade or lessening of competition
through merger or acquisition.
(b) In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, (i) each party hereto agrees to
make an appropriate filing of a Notification and Report Form pursuant to the HSR Act with respect
to the Transactions as promptly as practicable following the date of this Agreement (but in no
event later than ten (10) Business Days hereafter) and to supply as promptly as practicable any
additional information and documentary material that may be requested pursuant to the HSR Act and
to take, or cause to be taken, all other actions consistent with this Section 5.3 necessary
to cause the expiration or termination of the applicable waiting periods under the HSR Act as soon
as practicable; and (ii) the Company and Parent shall each use its reasonable best efforts to
(x) take all action necessary to ensure that no state takeover statute or similar Law is or becomes
applicable to the Transactions and (y) if any state takeover statute or similar Law becomes
applicable to the Transactions, take all action necessary to ensure that the Transactions
may be consummated as promptly as practicable on the terms contemplated by this Agreement and
otherwise minimize the effect of such Law on the Transactions.
(c) Each of the parties hereto shall use its reasonable best efforts to (i) cooperate in all
respects with each other in connection with any filing or submission with a Governmental Authority
in connection with the Transactions and in connection with any investigation or other inquiry by or
before a Governmental Authority relating to the Transactions, including any proceeding initiated by
a private party, and (ii) keep the other party informed in all material respects and on a
reasonably timely basis of any material communication received by such party from, or given by such
party to, the Federal Trade Commission, the Antitrust Division of the Department of Justice, or any
other Governmental Authority and of any material communication received or given in connection with
any proceeding by a private party, in each case regarding the Transactions. Subject to applicable
Laws relating to the exchange of information, each of the parties hereto shall have the right to
review in advance, and to the extent practicable each will consult the other on, all the
information relating to the other parties and their respective Subsidiaries, as the case may be,
that appears in any filing made with, or written materials submitted to, any third party and/or any
Governmental Authority in connection with the Transactions.
(d) In furtherance and not in limitation of the covenants of the parties contained in this
Section 5.3, each of the parties hereto shall use its reasonable best efforts to resolve
such objections, if any, as may be asserted by a Governmental Authority or other Person with
respect to the Transactions. Without limiting any other provision hereof, Parent shall take such
actions as shall be necessary to (i) avoid the entry of, or to have vacated or terminated, any
decree, order or judgment that would restrain, prevent or delay the consummation of the
Transactions on or before the Outside Date, including by defending through litigation on the merits
any claim asserted in any court by any Person, and (ii) avoid or eliminate each and every
impediment under any Antitrust Law that may be asserted by any Governmental Authority with respect
to the Transactions so as to enable the consummation of the Transactions to occur as soon as
reasonably possible (and in any event no later than the Outside Date) in each case, as may be
required in order to obtain any approvals from any Governmental Authority necessary to consummate
the Transactions or to avoid the entry of, or to effect the dissolution of, any injunction,
temporary restraining order, or other order in any Action or Proceeding, which would
46
otherwise have
the effect of preventing or materially delaying the consummation of the Transactions;
provided, however, that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this
Agreement, in connection with any filing or submission required or action to be taken by either
Parent or the Company to consummate the Transactions, in no event shall Parent or any of its
Subsidiaries or Affiliates be obligated to propose or agree to accept any undertaking or condition,
to enter into any consent decree, to make any divestiture or accept any operational restriction, or
take or commit to take any action (i) the effectiveness or consummation of which is not conditional
on the consummation of the Offer and the Merger or (ii) that individually or in the aggregate is or
would be reasonably expected to result in a material diminution of the benefits of the Transactions
to Parent (with materiality, for purposes of this provision, being measured in relation to the size
of the Company and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole) (any such action, undertaking, condition or
other restriction, a “Materially Burdensome Condition”). The Company shall agree, if
requested by Parent in writing, to commit to take any of the foregoing actions with respect to the
assets or business of
the Company in furtherance of this Section 5.3; provided, however,
that any such action may be conditioned upon the consummation of the Offer and the Merger and the
other Transactions.
SECTION 5.4 Public Announcements. The initial press release with respect to the
execution of this Agreement shall be a joint press release to be reasonably agreed upon by Parent
and the Company. Thereafter, except as expressly permitted by Section 5.2, neither the
Company nor Parent shall issue or cause the publication of any press release or other public
announcement (to the extent not previously issued or made in accordance with this Agreement) with
respect to this Agreement, the Offer, the Merger or the other Transactions without the prior
consent of the other party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or
delayed), except as may be required by Law or by any applicable listing agreement with or other
requirement of NASDAQ as determined in the good faith judgment of the party proposing to make such
release (in which case such party shall not issue or cause the publication of such press release or
other public announcement without prior consultation with the other party to the extent reasonably
practicable).
SECTION 5.5 Access to Information; Confidentiality. Subject to applicable Laws
relating to the exchange of information, the Company shall afford to Parent and Parent’s
Representatives reasonable access during normal business hours to the officers, employees,
accountants, properties, books, Contracts and records of the Company and its Subsidiaries and the
Company shall furnish promptly to Parent (i) a copy of each report, schedule and other document
filed by it pursuant to the requirements of federal or state securities Laws and rules and
regulations promulgated thereunder and (ii) other information concerning the business and
properties of the Company and its Subsidiaries as Parent may reasonably request; provided,
however, that the Company shall not be required to provide access to any information or
documents which would, in the reasonable judgment of the Company, (i) breach any agreement of the
Company or any of its Subsidiaries with any third party, (ii) constitute a waiver of the
attorney-client or other privilege held by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (iii) otherwise
violate any applicable Laws or (iv) which would result in a competitor of the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries receiving material information which is competitively sensitive; provided,
further, however, that the Company will use its reasonable best efforts to obtain
any required consents for the disclosure of such information or documents and take such other
action (such as the redaction of identifying or confidential information or entry into a joint
defense agreement or
47
other arrangement to avoid loss of attorney client privilege) with respect to
such information or documents as is necessary to permit disclosure to Parent and Parent’s
Representatives. Until the Effective Time, the information provided pursuant to this Agreement
will be subject to the terms of the Confidentiality Agreement, dated as of December 31, 2007,
between Parent, the record and beneficial owner of all of the outstanding capital stock of Parent,
and the Company (as it may be amended from time to time, the “Confidentiality Agreement”),
which shall survive the termination of this Agreement in accordance with the terms of the
Confidentiality Agreement.
SECTION 5.6 Notification of Certain Matters. The Company shall give reasonably prompt
notice to Parent, and Parent shall give reasonably prompt notice to the Company, of (i) any notice
or other communication received by such party from any Governmental Authority in connection with
the Transactions or from any Person alleging that the consent of such Person is or may be required
in connection with the Transactions, and (ii) any Actions or Proceedings
commenced or, to such party’s Knowledge, threatened against, relating to or involving or
otherwise affecting such party or any of its Subsidiaries which, in the case of either clause
(i) or (ii), would, in the case of the Company, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be
expected to have a Company Material Adverse Effect or, in the case of the Company or Parent,
prevent or materially delay consummation of the Transactions. Prior to the Acceptance Time, the
Company shall give reasonably prompt written notice to Parent of (a) the occurrence, or failure to
occur, after the date of this Agreement, of any fact or event which has caused or would be
reasonably likely (i) to cause any representation or warranty contained in this Agreement or in any
section of the Company Disclosure Letter to be untrue or inaccurate in any material respect or
(ii) to cause any covenant, condition or agreement (other than any covenant or agreement of Parent
or Purchaser) under this Agreement (including the conditions set forth in Annex A hereto)
not to be complied with or satisfied and (b) any failure by the Company to comply with or satisfy
in any material respect, any covenant, condition or agreement to be complied with or satisfied by
the Company hereunder (including the conditions set forth in Annex A hereto);
provided that no such notification shall affect the representations and warranties of the
Company contained in Article III or the conditions to the obligations of Parent or
Purchaser hereunder.
SECTION 5.7 Indemnification and Insurance.
(a) From the Acceptance Time until the Effective Time Parent shall cause (including by
providing adequate funding) the Company to, and after the Effective Time Parent shall cause
(including by providing adequate funding) the Surviving Corporation to, assume the obligations with
respect to all rights to indemnification and exculpation from liabilities, including advancement of
expenses, for acts or omissions occurring at or prior to the Effective Time now existing in favor
of the current or former directors or officers of the Company and its Subsidiaries (each, an
“Indemnitee” and, collectively, the “Indemnitees”) as provided in the Company
Charter Documents or any written indemnification Contract between such directors or officers and
the Company (in each case, as in effect on the date of this Agreement), without further action, and
such obligations shall survive the Merger and shall continue in full force and effect in accordance
with their terms. Without limiting the foregoing, Parent, for a period of at least six (6) years
after the Effective Time, shall cause the certificate of incorporation and by-laws of the Surviving
Corporation (or any successor) to contain provisions no less favorable to the Indemnitees with
respect to limitation of liabilities of directors and officers and indemnification than are set
forth as of the date of this Agreement in the Company Charter
48
Documents, which provisions shall not
be amended, repealed or otherwise modified in a manner that would adversely affect the rights
thereunder of the Indemnitees. Parent shall cause (including by providing adequate funding to) the
Surviving Corporation to, honor all of its indemnification obligations existing as of the Effective
Time.
(b) For the six (6) year period commencing immediately after the Acceptance Time, Parent shall
maintain in effect directors’ and officers’ liability insurance covering acts or omissions
occurring at or prior to the Effective Time with respect to those persons who were or are currently
(and any additional persons who at or prior to the Effective Time become) covered by the Company’s
directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policies on terms with respect to such coverage, and
in amount, not less favorable to such individuals than those of such policies in effect on the date
of this Agreement (or Parent may substitute therefor policies, issued by reputable insurers, of at
least the same coverage with respect to matters occurring prior to the
Effective Time; provided that any substitution or replacement of existing policies
shall not result in any gaps or lapses of coverage with respect to facts, events, acts or omissions
occurring at or prior to the Effective Time)); provided, however, that, if the
aggregate annual premiums for such insurance shall exceed 200% of the current aggregate annual
premiums, then Parent shall provide or cause to be provided a policy for the applicable individuals
with the best coverage as shall then be available at the sum of (i) an annual premium of 200% of
the current aggregate annual premiums plus (ii) the unearned portion of the premium paid by the
Company for the current year for such insurance.
(c) The provisions of this Section 5.7 are intended to be for the benefit of, and
shall be enforceable by, each Indemnitee, his or her heirs and his or her representatives and, in
addition to, and not in substitution for, and shall not impair any other rights to indemnification
or contribution that any such Person may have by contract, under the Company Charter Documents, or
the comparable organization documents of the Surviving Corporation or any of its subsidiaries,
under applicable Law, or otherwise. Parent shall ensure that the Surviving Corporation complies
with all of its obligations under this Section 5.7.
SECTION 5.8 Fees and Expenses. Except as provided in Section 7.3, all fees
and expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement and the Transactions shall be paid by the
party incurring such fees or expenses, whether or not the Transactions are consummated;
provided that the fees and expenses of printing and mailing the Offer Documents, all filing
and other fees paid to the SEC in connection with the Offer and the Merger and all filing fees and
other out of pocket fees and expenses incurred by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries pursuant
to Section 5.3, shall be reimbursed by Parent to the Company or such Subsidiary in the event that
this Agreement is terminated by (a) the Company or Parent pursuant to Section 7(b)(i),
Section 7(b)(ii) or Section 7(b)(iii) or (b) the Company pursuant to Section
7(d)(i) and, in any case, at the time of such termination any applicable period under the HSR
Act shall not have expired or been terminated.
SECTION 5.9 Rule 16b-3. Prior to the Acceptance Time, the Company and Parent shall
take such steps as may be reasonably requested by any party hereto to cause dispositions of Company
equity securities (including derivative securities) pursuant to the Transactions by each individual
who is a director or officer of the Company to be exempt under Rule 16b-3
49
promulgated under the
Exchange Act in accordance with that certain No-Action Letter dated January 12, 1999 issued by the
SEC regarding such matters.
SECTION 5.10 Employee Matters.
(a) Parent shall, for a period of one (1) year immediately following the later of the
Acceptance Time and the Effective Time, provide, or shall cause the Surviving Corporation and its
Subsidiaries to provide, employees who shall have been employees of the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries at the Acceptance Time who continue as employees of the Company, its Subsidiaries or
the Surviving Corporation following the Acceptance Time (the “Company Employees”) with
employee benefit plans, programs, policies and arrangements (other than equity-based plans and
severance arrangements) that are comparable, in the aggregate, to the employee benefit plans,
programs and arrangements (other than equity-based plans and severance arrangements) provided by
the Company and its Subsidiaries to
Company Employees immediately prior to the Acceptance Time. Parent shall recognize the
service of Company Employees with the Company and its Subsidiaries prior to the Acceptance Time as
service with Parent and its Affiliates in connection with any Parent Benefit Plan which is made
available to Company Employees following the Acceptance Time for purposes of any waiting period,
vesting, eligibility and benefit entitlement where length of service is relevant. Parent shall (i)
waive, or cause its insurance carriers to waive, all limitations as to pre-existing conditions, if
any, with respect to participation and coverage requirements applicable to Company Employees and
their dependents under any Parent Benefit Plan that is a welfare benefit plan (as defined in
Section 3(1) of ERISA) which is made available to Company Employees following the Acceptance Time
(other than any limitations that were in effect with respect to such employees as of the Acceptance
Time under the analogous Company Plan), and (ii) provide credit to Company Employees and their
dependents for any co-payments, deductibles and out-of-pocket expenses paid by such employees under
the employee benefit plans, programs or arrangements of the Company and its Subsidiaries during the
portion of the relevant plan year, including the Purchase Date. Parent shall cause the Surviving
Corporation and its Subsidiaries to expressly assume and agree to perform any employment, severance
or change in control agreement listed in Section 3.11(h) of the Company Disclosure Letter
in the same manner and to the same extent that the Company and its Subsidiaries would be required
to perform it if the Transactions had not taken place. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained herein, Parent shall honor, and cause the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries to
honor, in accordance with its terms as in effect immediately prior to the Acceptance Time, the 2008
Severance Pay Plan for the benefit of Company Employees.
(b) This Section 5.10 shall be binding upon and inure solely to the benefit of each of
the parties to this Agreement, and nothing in this Article V, express or implied, is
intended to confer upon any other Person any rights or remedies of any nature whatsoever under or
by reason of this Section 5.10.
(c) Nothing contained in this Agreement shall (i) constitute or be deemed to be an amendment
to any Company Plan or any other compensation or benefit plan, program or arrangement of the
Company or any of its Subsidiaries; (ii) prevent the amendment or termination of any Company Plan
in accordance with its terms, or interfere with the right or obligation of Parent or its Affiliates
to make such changes as are necessary to conform with
50
applicable Law (including without limitation
Section 409A of the Code); or (iii) limit the right of Parent or any of its Affiliates to terminate
the employment of any employee at any time.
(d) If the Company or any of its Subsidiaries enters into, adopts, amends, modifies or
terminates any Company Compensation Arrangements for Covered Stockholders, the Company intends that
all such amounts payable under such Company Compensation Arrangements (i) shall be paid or granted
as compensation for past services performed, future services to be performed, or future services to
be refrained from performing, by the Covered Stockholders (and matters incidental thereto) and
(ii) shall not be calculated based on the number of shares tendered or to be tendered into the
Offer by the applicable Covered Stockholders. If there has been any adoption, approval, amendment
or modification of any Company Compensation Arrangement, either prior to or after the date of this
Agreement, the Company agrees that, upon the request of Parent, the Compensation Committee of the
Company Board, consisting solely of independent directors, shall approve resolutions approving such
adoption,
approval, amendment or modification as an employment compensation, severance or other employee
benefit arrangements, in accordance with the requirements of Rule 14d-10(d)(2) under the Exchange
Act and the instructions thereto.
SECTION 5.11 Delisting. Parent shall cause the Company Common Stock to be de-listed from NASDAQ and de-registered under the Exchange Act
as soon as practicable following the Effective Time. Prior to the Closing Date, the Company shall cooperate with Parent and use
reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions, and do or cause to be done all things, reasonably necessary, proper
or advisable on its part under applicable laws and rules and policies of the NASDAQ to enable the de-listing by the Surviving Corporation
of the Company Common Stock from the NASDAQ and the deregistration of the Company Common Stock under the Exchange Act as promptly as
practicable after the Effective Time.
SECTION 5.12 Takeover Laws. The Company and the Company Board shall (a) use reasonable best efforts to ensure that no state takeover
Law or similar Law is or becomes applicable to this Agreement, the Offer, the Merger or any of the other Transactions and (b) if any
state takeover Law or similar Law becomes applicable to this Agreement, the Offer, the Merger or any of the other Transactions, use
reasonable best efforts to ensure that the Offer, the Merger and the other Transactions may be consummated as promptly as practicable
on the terms contemplated by this Agreement and otherwise to minimize the effect of such Law on this Agreement, the Offer, the Merger
and the other Transactions.
SECTION 5.13 Stockholder Litigation. The Company shall give Parent the opportunity to participate in the defense or settlement of any
stockholder litigation against the Company and/or its directors relating to this Agreement, the Offer, the Merger or the other Transactions,
and no such settlement shall be agreed to without Parent’s prior written consent, which prior to the Acceptance Time shall not be
unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned.
SECTION 5.14 Purchase of Shares of Series D-1 Preferred Stock. Purchaser shall (and Parent shall cause Purchaser to) purchase,
subject to the terms and conditions of the Preferred Stockholder Agreement, the shares of Series D-1 Preferred Stock held by the
Company Preferred Stockholders.
51
ARTICLE VI
Conditions to the Merger
SECTION 6.1 Conditions to Each Party’s Obligation to Effect the Merger. The
respective obligations of each party hereto to effect the Merger shall be subject to the
satisfaction (or waiver, if permissible under applicable Law) on or prior to the Closing Date of
the following conditions:
(a) The Company Stockholder Approval shall have been obtained, if and to the extent required
by applicable Law in order to consummate the Merger.
(b) No Law, injunction, judgment or ruling enacted, promulgated, issued, entered, amended or
enforced by any Governmental Authority (collectively, “Restraints”) shall be in effect
enjoining, restraining, preventing or prohibiting consummation of the Merger or making the
consummation of the Merger illegal.
(c) Purchaser shall have purchased all Shares validly tendered and not withdrawn pursuant to
the Offer; provided, however, that neither Parent nor Purchaser may invoke this
condition if Purchaser shall have failed to purchase Shares so tendered and not withdrawn in
violation of the terms of this Agreement or the Offer.
ARTICLE VII
Termination
SECTION 7.1 Termination. This Agreement may be terminated and the Transactions
abandoned at any time prior to the Effective Time, whether before or after receipt of the Company
Stockholder Approval:
(a) by the mutual written consent of the Company and Parent duly authorized by the Company
Board (including, from and after the Acceptance Time, the Independent Director Approval
contemplated by Section 1.3(c)) and the Board of Directors of Parent; or
(b) by either the Company or Parent:
(i) if the Merger shall not have been consummated on or before the Outside
Date; provided, however, that the right to terminate this Agreement
under this Section 7.1(b)(i) shall not be available to a party if the
failure of the Merger to have been consummated on or before the Outside Date was
primarily due to the failure of such party to perform any of its obligations under
this Agreement;
(ii) if any Restraint enjoining, restraining, preventing or prohibiting
consummation of the Transactions or making the consummation of the Transactions
illegal shall be in effect and shall have become final and non appealable;
provided that the right to terminate this Agreement under this Section
7.l(b)(ii) shall not be available to a party if the issuance of such final, non
52
appealable Restraint was primarily due to the failure of such party to perform
any of its obligations under this Agreement; or
(iii) if the Offer shall have expired or been terminated in accordance with the
terms of this Agreement without Parent or Purchaser having accepted for purchase any
shares of Company Common Stock pursuant to the Offer, other than due to a breach of
this Agreement by the terminating party; or
(c) by Parent, prior to the Acceptance Time:
(i) if the Company shall have breached or failed to perform any of its
representations, warranties, covenants or agreements set forth in this Agreement,
which breach or failure to perform (A) would result in any of the events set forth
in clause (c) or (d) of Annex A to occur and (B) is not cured, or cannot be
cured, by the Company within thirty (30) calendar days following receipt of written
notice of such breach or failure to perform from Parent (or if the Outside Date is
less than thirty (30) calendar days from the notice by Parent, is not cured, or
cannot be cured, by the Company by the Outside Date); or
(ii) if a Company Adverse Recommendation Change shall have occurred; or
(d) by the Company, prior to the Acceptance Time:
(i) if Parent or Purchaser shall have breached or failed to perform any of its
representations, warranties, covenants or agreements set forth in this Agreement,
which breach or failure to perform (A) would result in (x) any representation or any
representation or warranty of Parent and Purchaser contained in this Agreement not
being true and correct (without giving effect to any qualifications or limitations
as to materiality set forth therein) except, in the case of this clause (x), to the
extent that the facts or matters as to which such representation or warranty is not
so true and correct, individually or in the aggregate, have not had and could not
reasonably be expected to be materially adverse to the ability of Parent and
Purchaser to perform their obligations under this Agreement or to consummate the
Transactions by the Outside Date, or (y) a failure by Parent or Purchaser to perform
in all material respects its agreements, covenants and obligations required to be
performed by it under this Agreement at or prior to such time and (B) is not cured,
or is incapable of being cured, by Parent or Purchaser within thirty (30) calendar
days following receipt of written notice of such breach or failure to perform from
the Company (or, if the Outside Date is less than thirty (30) calendar days from the
notice by the Company, is not cured, or is incapable of being cured, by Parent or
Purchaser by the Outside Date); or
(ii) if concurrently it enters into a definitive Company Acquisition Agreement
providing for a Superior Proposal, but only after complying with the provisions of
Section 5.2(b), including paying to Parent the Termination Fee and
53
Expense Payment payable pursuant to Section 7.3 concurrently with such
termination.
SECTION 7.2 Effect of Termination. In the event of the termination of this Agreement
as provided in Section 7.1, written notice of such termination shall be given to the other
party or parties, specifying the provision of this Agreement pursuant to which such termination is
made, and this Agreement shall forthwith become null and void (other than Sections 5.8,
7.2 and 7.3, Article VIII, the last sentence of Section 1.2(b), the
last sentence of Section 5.5 and the Confidentiality Agreement in accordance with its
terms, all of which shall survive termination of this Agreement in accordance with its terms, and
Sections 1.3 and 5.7, which shall survive any termination of this Agreement
following the Acceptance Time but prior to the Effective Time) and there shall be no liability or
other obligation on the part of Parent, Purchaser or the Company or their respective Subsidiaries,
or its or their respective stockholders, controlling persons or Representatives, except (a) the
Company or Parent may have liability as provided in Section 7.3, and (b) nothing shall
relieve Parent, Purchaser or the Company from liability for any willful and material breach by such
party of its covenants under this Agreement to be performed prior to the Closing Date. In the
event of termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 7.1 prior to the expiration of
the Offer, Parent and Purchaser will promptly terminate the Offer upon such termination of this
Agreement without the purchase of any Shares thereunder. If the Offer is terminated, all tendered
Shares not theretofore accepted for payment shall forthwith be returned to the tendering
stockholders.
SECTION 7.3 Termination Fees.
(a) In the event that this Agreement is terminated by Parent pursuant to Section
7.1(c)(ii) or the Company pursuant to Section 7.1(d)(ii), then the Company shall pay to
Parent, no later than the second (2nd) Business Day following termination in the case of
Section 7.1(c)(ii) and concurrently with termination in the case of Section
7.1(d)(ii), by wire transfer of same-day funds (i) a termination fee of $12,600,000 (the
“Termination Fee”) and (ii) all out-of-pocket expenses, actually documented and incurred or
payable by or on behalf of Parent or Purchaser in connection with or in anticipation of the
Transactions (whether before or after the date of this Agreement), including all attorneys’ fees,
financial advisor’s fees, accountants’ fees and filing fees (the “Expense Payment”);
provided that in no circumstance shall the Expense Payment exceed $1,000,000 in the aggregate.
(b) In the event that (i) Parent or the Company shall terminate this Agreement pursuant to
Section 7.1(b)(iii), or Parent shall terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section
7.1(c)(i) as a result of a breach of Section 5.2, and (ii) in each case prior to the
time of such termination a bona fide Takeover Proposal or an intention (whether or not conditional)
to make a Takeover Proposal has been publicly made or otherwise made known to the Company Board or
generally to the Company Stockholders and not withdrawn at least five (5) Business Days prior to
termination, and (iii) if, within 12 months after the date of such termination, a definitive
agreement is entered into by the Company or any of its Affiliates with respect to any Takeover
Proposal or any Takeover Proposal is consummated, then the Company shall pay to Parent, on the date
such agreement is entered into or on the date that such Takeover Proposal is consummated, whichever
is earlier, by wire transfer of same-day funds, an amount equal to the Termination Fee and the
Expense Payment; provided, however, that for the purpose of this
54
Section 7.3(b), all references in the definition of Takeover Proposal to “25%” shall
instead be deemed to refer to “a majority”.
(c) Each of the Company and Parent acknowledges that the agreements contained in this
Section 7.3 are an integral part of the Transactions and that, without these agreements,
Parent would not enter into this Agreement. Accordingly, in the event that the Company shall fail
to pay the Termination Fee or Expense Payment when due, the Company shall reimburse Parent for all
costs and expenses incurred or accrued by it (including reasonable fees and expenses of counsel) in
connection with the collection under and enforcement of this Section 7.3 with interest on
the amount of the Termination Fee and/or Expense Payment, as the case may be, from the date that
such payment was required to be made until the date of actual payment at the prime rate of
Citibank, N.A., in effect on the date that such payment was required to be made.
ARTICLE VIII
Miscellaneous
SECTION 8.1 Survival of Representations, Warranties and Agreements. The
representations and warranties contained herein or in any other writing delivered pursuant hereto,
as well as any covenant or agreement of the parties that by its terms contemplates performance
exclusively prior to the Effective Time, shall survive until (but not beyond) the Effective Time.
Nothing in this paragraph shall limit any covenant or agreement of any of the parties that by its
terms contemplates performance in whole or in part after the Effective Time.
SECTION 8.2 Amendment or Supplement. At any time prior to the Effective Time, this
Agreement may be amended or supplemented in any and all respects, whether before or after the
Company Stockholder Approval, by written agreement of the parties hereto upon action taken by their
respective Boards of Directors (which in the case of the Company after the Acceptance Time shall
include the Independent Director Approval contemplated by Section 1.3); provided,
however, that following receipt of the Company Stockholder Approval, there shall be no
amendment or change to the provisions hereof which by Law or in accordance with the rules of any
relevant stock exchange would require further approval by any of the stockholders of the Company
without such approval.
SECTION 8.3 Extension of Time, Waiver, Etc. At any time prior to the Effective Time,
either Parent or the Purchaser, on the one hand, or the Company, on the other, may, subject to
applicable Law, (a) waive any inaccuracies in the representations and warranties of the other, (b)
extend the time for the performance of any of the obligations or acts of the other or (c) waive
compliance by the other with any of the agreements contained herein or, except as otherwise
provided herein, waive any of such party’s conditions; and provided, that in the case of
the Company following the Acceptance Time, the Independent Director Approval contemplated by
Section 1.3 is obtained; provided, further, that after the Company
Stockholder Approval is obtained, there may not be any extension or waiver of this Agreement or any
portion thereof which, by Law or in accordance with the rules of any relevant stock exchange would
require further approval by any of the stockholders of the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
no failure or delay by the Company, Parent or Purchaser in exercising any right hereunder shall
55
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 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 8.4 Assignment. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or
obligations hereunder shall be assigned, in whole or in part, by operation of Law or otherwise, by
any of the parties without the prior written consent of the other parties; provided that
Parent and Purchaser may assign any of or all of its rights, interests and obligations under this
Agreement to Parent or to any direct or indirect wholly owned Subsidiary of Parent, but no such
assignment shall relieve Parent or Purchaser of any of its obligations under this Agreement.
Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement shall be binding upon, inure to the benefit of,
and be enforceable by, the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns.
Any purported assignment not permitted under this section shall be null and void.
SECTION 8.5 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (each of
which shall be deemed to be an original but all of which taken together shall constitute one and
the same agreement) and shall become effective when one or more counterparts have been signed by
each of the parties and delivered to the other parties. Copies of executed counterparts
transmitted by telecopy, telefax or electronic transmission shall be considered original executed
counterparts for purposes of this Section 8.5 provided that receipt of copies of such
counterparts is confirmed.
SECTION 8.6 Entire Agreement; No Third-Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement, together
with Annex A hereto, the Company Disclosure Letter and the Confidentiality Agreement, (a)
constitutes the entire agreement, and supersedes all other prior agreements and understandings,
both written and oral, among the parties, or any of them, with respect to the subject matter hereof
and thereof and (b) except for the provisions of Section 5.7, is not intended to and shall
not confer upon any Person other than the parties hereto any rights or remedies hereunder.
SECTION 8.7 Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial.
(a) This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the Laws of the
State of Delaware applicable to Contracts executed in and to be performed entirely within that
State, regardless of the laws that might otherwise govern under applicable principles of conflicts
of laws.
(b) All Actions or Proceedings arising out of or relating to this Agreement shall be heard and
determined in the Chancery Court of the State of Delaware, and the parties hereto hereby
irrevocably submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of such court (and, in the case of appeals,
appropriate appellate courts therefrom) in any such Action or Proceeding and irrevocably waive the
defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of any such Action or Proceeding. The consents
to jurisdiction set forth in this paragraph shall not constitute general consents to service of
process in the State of Delaware and shall have no effect for any purpose except as provided in
this paragraph and shall not be deemed to confer rights on any Person other than the parties
hereto. The parties hereto agree that a final judgment in any such Action or
56
Proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the
judgment or in any other manner provided by applicable Law.
(c) Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives any and all rights to trial by jury
in any legal proceeding arising out of or related to this Agreement.
SECTION 8.8 Specific Enforcement; Remedies. The parties agree that irreparable damage
would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in
accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that the
parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and
to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement in the Chancery Court of the
State of Delaware, without bond or other security being required, this being in addition to any
other remedy to which they are entitled at Law or in equity. Parent and Purchaser agree and
acknowledge that none of the directors, officers or Affiliates of the Company shall have any
personal liability hereunder, including, without limitation, for any breach of this Agreement or
inaccuracy of any representation or warranty.

deemed received on the date of receipt by the recipient thereof if received prior to 5 P.M. in the
place of receipt and such day is a Business Day in the place of receipt. Otherwise, any such

SECTION 8.10 Severability. If any term or other provision of this Agreement is
determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal or incapable of being
enforced by any rule of Law or public policy, all other terms, provisions and conditions of this
Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect. Upon such determination that any
term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the parties hereto
shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the
parties as closely as possible to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law in an acceptable
manner to the end that the Transactions are fulfilled to the extent possible.

and, assuming the due authorization, execution and delivery thereof by the Company and each of the
Company Preferred Stockholders, constitutes a valid and legally binding agreement of Parent and
Purchaser enforceable against each of them in accordance with its terms, subject to the Bankruptcy
and Equity Exception.
Section 4.3. Consents and Approvals; No Violation. (i) Except as may be set
forth in the Merger Agreement (including, without limitation, filings as may be required under
applicable securities laws), no filing with, and no permit, authorization, consent, or approval of,
any Governmental Authority is necessary for the execution of this Agreement by each of Parent and
Purchaser and the consummation by each of Parent and Purchaser of the transactions contemplated by
this Agreement, and (ii) none of the execution and delivery of this Agreement by each of
Parent and Purchaser, the consummation by each of Parent and Purchaser of the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement or compliance by each of Parent and Purchaser with any of the
provisions of this Agreement shall (A) conflict with or result in any breach of the
organizational documents Parent or Purchaser, (B) result in a material violation or
material breach of, or constitute (with or without notice or lapse of time, or both) a default (or
give rise to any third party right of termination, cancellation,
6
amendment, or acceleration) under any of the terms, conditions, or provisions of any material
note, bond, mortgage, indenture, license, contract, commitment, arrangement, understanding,
agreement, or other instrument or obligation of any kind to which Parent or Purchaser is a party,
or (C) subject to compliance with filing requirements as may be required under applicable
securities laws, violate any order, writ, injunction, decree, judgment, statute, rule, or
regulation applicable to Parent or Purchaser, except in each case under clauses (A), (B) or (C),
where the absence of filing or authorization, conflict, violation, breach, or default would not
materially impair or materially adversely effect the ability of each of Parent and Purchaser to
perform its obligations hereunder.
ARTICLE V
Covenants of Each Company Preferred Stockholder
Each Company Preferred Stockholder severally covenants and agrees as follows:
Section 5.1. Restriction on Transfer, Proxies, and Non-Interference. Except as
contemplated by this Agreement or the Merger Agreement, during the period beginning from the
execution and delivery by the parties of this Agreement through the earlier of (1) the
Effective Time, (2) the termination of the Merger Agreement or (3) the termination
of this Agreement in accordance with Section 6.1, each Company Preferred Stockholder shall
not (i) directly or indirectly, offer for sale, sell, transfer, tender, pledge, encumber,
assign, or otherwise dispose of (each, a “Transfer”), or enter into any contract, option,
or other arrangement or understanding (including any profit sharing arrangement) with respect to
the Transfer of, any or all of such Company Preferred Stockholder’s Voting Shares or any other
securities of the Company or any interest therein to any Person, other than pursuant to the Merger
Agreement or the Offer, (ii) grant any proxies or powers of attorney, or any other
authorization or consent with respect to any or all of such Company Preferred Stockholder’s Voting
Shares that could reasonably be expected to impede, interfere with or prevent the Merger,
(iii) deposit any of such Company Preferred Stockholder’s Voting Shares into a voting trust
or enter into a voting agreement with respect to any of such Company Preferred Stockholder’s Voting
Shares, other than pursuant to this Agreement or (iv) take any action that would make any
representation or warranty of such Company Preferred Stockholder contained in this Agreement untrue
or incorrect in any material respect or that would reasonably be expected to have the effect of
preventing or disabling or delaying such Company Preferred Stockholder from performing such Company
Preferred Stockholder’s obligations under this Agreement.
Section 5.2. Stop Transfer; Changes in Voting Shares. Each Company Preferred
Stockholder agrees with, and covenants to, Parent and Purchaser that (i) this Agreement and
the obligations hereunder shall attach to such Company Preferred Stockholder’s Voting Shares and
shall be binding upon any person or entity to which legal or beneficial ownership
7
shall pass, whether by operation of law or otherwise, and (ii) such Company Preferred
Stockholder shall not request that the Company register the transfer (book-entry or otherwise) of
any certificate or uncertificated interest representing any or all of the Company Preferred
Stockholder’s Voting Shares, unless such transfer is made in compliance with this Agreement.
Section 5.3. Appraisal Rights. Each Company Preferred Stockholder hereby waives any
rights of appraisal or rights to dissent from the Merger that such Company Preferred Stockholder
may have (including, without limitation, under Section 262 of the DGCL).
Section 5.4. Additional Securities; Certain Events.
(a) In the event any Company Preferred Stockholder becomes the record or beneficial owner of
(i) any shares of Company Common Stock or any other securities of the Company, (ii)
any securities which may be converted into or exchanged for such shares or other securities or
(iii) any securities issued in replacement of, or as a dividend or distribution on, or
otherwise in respect of, such shares or other securities (collectively, “Additional
Securities”), then the terms of this Agreement shall apply to any of such Additional Securities
and such Additional Securities shall be considered Voting Shares for purposes hereof. Each Company
Preferred Stockholder agrees not to purchase or in any other manner acquire beneficial ownership of
any Additional Securities without Parent’s prior written consent.
(b) Each Company Preferred Stockholder agrees that this Agreement and the obligations
hereunder shall attach to the Voting Shares and shall be binding upon any Person to which legal or
beneficial ownership of the Voting Shares shall pass, whether by operation of law or otherwise,
including, without limitation, such Company Preferred Stockholder’s successors or assigns.
Notwithstanding any Transfer of the Voting Shares, the transferor shall remain liable for the
performance of all of the obligations of the Company Preferred Stockholder under this Agreement.
Section 5.5. Stockholder Capacity. Each Company Preferred Stockholder enters into
this Agreement solely in its capacity as the record or beneficial owner of the Voting Shares.
Nothing contained in this Agreement shall limit the rights and obligations of any Company Preferred
Stockholder, any of its Affiliates, Representatives or any employee of any of its Affiliates in his
or her capacity as a director or officer of the Company, and the agreements set forth herein shall
in no way restrict any director or officer of the Company in the exercise of his or her fiduciary
duties as a director or officer of the Company.
Section 5.6. Documentation and Information. Each Company Preferred Stockholder
(i) consents to and authorizes the publication and disclosure by Parent and its affiliates
of its identity and holding of Subject Shares and the nature of its commitments and obligations
under this Agreement in any announcement or disclosure required by the SEC or
8
other Governmental Authority, the Offer Documents, or any other disclosure document in
connection with the Offer, the Merger or any of the other transactions contemplated by the Merger
Agreement or this Agreement, and (ii) agrees promptly to give to Parent any information it
may reasonably require for the preparation of any such disclosure documents. Each Company
Preferred Stockholder agrees to promptly notify Parent of any required corrections with respect to
any written information supplied by it specifically for use in any such disclosure document, if and
to the extent that any shall have become false or misleading in any material respect.
ARTICLE VI
Termination
Section 6.1. This Agreement and the covenants and agreements set forth in this Agreement
(a) shall automatically (without any further action of the parties) terminate upon the
termination of the Original Merger Agreement or the Merger Agreement in accordance with its terms
and (b) shall be terminable by the Company Preferred Stockholders holding a majority of the
Series D-1 Preferred Stock upon (i) any modification or amendment of the Merger Agreement
that is adverse to the Company Preferred Stockholders in any material respect (including, without
limitation, any reduction in the Offer Price), (ii) any waiver by the Company of any
obligation of Parent or Purchaser under the Original Merger Agreement or the Merger Agreement,
including, without limitation, any of the Conditions of the Offer set forth in Annex A of the
Original Merger Agreement or the Merger Agreement, which such waiver is adverse to the Company
Preferred Stockholders in any material respect or (iii) the occurrence of a Company Adverse
Recommendation Change, provided that, in the case of clauses (i) and (ii), the Company
Preferred Stockholders holding a majority of the Series D-1 Preferred Stock have not consented in
writing to such modification, amendment or waiver, and except that any termination of this
Agreement pursuant to this Section 6.1 shall not relieve any party from liability for any
breach hereof prior to such termination. If this Agreement shall be terminated pursuant to this
Section 6.1, no Sale shall occur.
ARTICLE VII
Miscellanous
Section 7.1. Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial.
(a) This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the Laws of the
State of Delaware applicable to Contracts executed in and to be performed entirely within that
State, regardless of the laws that might otherwise govern under applicable principles of conflicts
of laws.
9
(b) All Actions or Proceedings arising out of or relating to this Agreement shall be heard and
determined in the Chancery Court of the State of Delaware, and the parties hereto hereby
irrevocably submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of such court (and, in the case of appeals,
appropriate appellate courts therefrom) in any such Action or Proceeding and irrevocably waive the
defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of any such Action or Proceeding. The consents
to jurisdiction set forth in this paragraph shall not constitute general consents to service of
process in the State of Delaware and shall have no effect for any purpose except as provided in
this paragraph and shall not be deemed to confer rights on any Person other than the parties
hereto. The parties hereto agree that a final judgment in any such Action or Proceeding shall be
conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other
manner provided by applicable Law.
(c) Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives any and all rights to trial by jury
in any legal proceeding arising out of or related to this Agreement.
Section 7.2. Specific Performance. Each Company Preferred Stockholder acknowledges
and agrees that (a) the covenants, obligations and agreements of such Company Preferred
Stockholder contained in this Agreement relate to special, unique and extraordinary matters,
(b) Parent is and will be relying on such covenants, obligations and agreements in
connection with entering into the Merger Agreement and the performance of Parent’s obligations
under the Merger Agreement, and (c) a violation of any of the covenants, obligations or
agreements of such Company Preferred Stockholder contained in this Agreement will cause Parent
irreparable injury for which adequate remedies are not available at law. Therefore, each Company
Preferred Stockholder agrees that Parent shall be entitled to an injunction, restraining order or
such other equitable relief (without the requirement to post bond) as a court of competent
jurisdiction may deem necessary or appropriate to restrain such Company Preferred Stockholder, as
the case may be, from committing any violation of such covenants, obligations or agreements and to
specifically enforce the terms of this Agreement. These injunctive remedies are cumulative and in
addition to any other rights and remedies Parent may have under applicable law.
Section 7.3. Assignment; No Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement shall not be
assignable or otherwise transferable by a party without the prior consent of the other parties, and
any attempt to so assign or otherwise transfer this Agreement without such consent shall be void
and of no effect; provided, however, that Parent may, in its sole discretion,
assign or transfer all or any of its rights, interests and obligations under this Agreement to any
direct or indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Parent, but no such assignment shall relieve Parent
from its obligations under this Agreement. This Agreement shall be binding upon the respective
heirs, successors, legal representatives and permitted assigns of the parties hereto. Nothing in
this Agreement shall be construed as giving any Person, other than the parties hereto and their
heirs, successors, legal representatives and permitted assigns, any right, remedy or claim under or
in respect of this Agreement or any provision hereof; provided, however, that the
Company shall be a third party beneficiary of
10
the obligations of the parties to this Agreement and shall be entitled to enforce those
obligations as though a party hereto.
Section 7.4. Amendments, Waivers, etc. Neither this Agreement nor any term hereof may
be amended other than by an instrument in writing signed by Parent, Purchaser and the Company
Preferred Stockholders. No provision of this Agreement may be waived, discharged or terminated
other than by an instrument in writing signed by the party against whom the enforcement of such
waiver, discharge or termination is sought, except that this Agreement may be terminated as set
forth in Section 6.1.
Section 7.5. Notices. All notices, requests and other communications to any party
hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed given if delivered either personally, by
facsimile transmission (with acknowledgment received), by electronic mail (with receipt confirmed)

incurred in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be paid by the
party incurring such costs and expenses.

power or privilege under this Agreement 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 provided herein shall be cumulative and
not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by law.
Section 7.8. Severability. If any term or provision of this Agreement is held to be
invalid, illegal, incapable of being enforced by any rule of law, or public policy, or
unenforceable for any reason, it shall be adjusted rather than voided, if possible, in order to
achieve the intent of the parties hereto to the maximum extent possible. In any event, the
invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of this Agreement in any jurisdiction shall not
affect the validity or enforceability of the remainder of this Agreement in that jurisdiction or
the validity or enforceability of this Agreement, including that provision, in any other
jurisdiction. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or
incapable of being enforced, the parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith to modify this
Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in a mutually
acceptable manner in order that the terms of this Agreement remain as originally contemplated to
the fullest extent possible.
Section 7.9. Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement among
the parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement and supersedes all other prior
agreements and understandings, both written and oral, between the parties with respect to the
subject matter of this Agreement.
12
Section 7.10. Further Assurances. From time to time at the request of Parent, and
without further consideration, each Company Preferred Stockholder shall execute and deliver or
cause to be executed and delivered such additional documents and instruments and take all such
further action as may be reasonably necessary or desirable to effect the matters contemplated by
this Agreement.
Section 7.11. Section Headings. The article and section headings used in this
Agreement are inserted for convenience of reference only and are not intended to be part of or to
affect the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.
Section 7.12. Public Announcements. No Company Preferred Stockholder shall issue any
press release or make any other public statement with respect to the transactions contemplated by
this Agreement and the Merger Agreement without the prior written consent of Parent.
Section 7.13. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more
counterparts, each of which when executed shall be deemed to be an original but all of which taken
together shall constitute one and the same agreement. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a
signature page to this Agreement by telecopier shall be effective as delivery of a manually
executed counterpart of this Agreement.
