(b) From the period commencing with the execution and delivery of this Agreement and continuing until the Expiration Date, without limiting the obligations of each Shareholder under this Agreement, each Shareholder hereby irrevocably appoints as its proxy and attorney-in-fact the officers of the Company set forth on Annex B hereto, and any individual who shall hereafter succeed to any such officer of the Company, and any other Person designated in writing by the Company (collectively, the “Proxy Holders”), each of them individually, with full power of substitution, to vote the Subject Shares in accordance with Section 1(a); provided that the proxy and the power of attorney granted by each Shareholder shall be effective if, and only if, such Shareholder has not delivered to Parent at least three (3) Business Days prior to the date of an applicable meeting of the shareholders of Parent (or, as applicable, any adjournments or postponements thereof), a duly executed proxy card voting the Shareholder’s Subject Shares in accordance with Section 1(a) and has not revoked such duly executed proxy card. This proxy is coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable, and each Shareholder shall take such further action or execute such other instruments as may be reasonably necessary to effectuate the intent of this proxy and hereby revokes any proxy previously granted by the Shareholder with respect to the Subject Shares. This proxy and the power of attorney is given by the Shareholder in connection with, and in consideration of, the execution of the Merger Agreement by Parent and to secure the performance of the duties of each Shareholder under this Agreement.

The foregoing restrictions on Transfers of Subject Shares shall not prohibit any such Transfers by any Shareholder in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Shareholder may Transfer the Subject Shares by will, for estate planning purposes, or to any of such Shareholder’s controlled Affiliates (such Persons, collectively, the “Permitted Transferee”), in each case, provided that (A) the Subject Shares shall continue to be bound by this Agreement following such Transfer and (B) each Permitted Transferee that is not a party hereto agrees in writing to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Agreement.
(b) At all times commencing with the execution and delivery of this Agreement and continuing until the Expiration Date, in furtherance of this Agreement, each Shareholder hereby authorizes Parent or its counsel to notify Parent’s transfer agent that there is a stop transfer order with respect to all of the Subject Shares (and that this Agreement places limits on the voting and Transfer of the Subject Shares).

5
(b) No Conflicts. The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by the Shareholder, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement will not violate, conflict with or result in a breach of, or constitute a default (with or without notice or lapse of time or both) under any provision of the constitutional documents of the Shareholder or any trust agreement, loan or credit agreement, note, bond, mortgage, indenture, lease or other agreement, instrument, permit, concession, franchise, license, judgment, order, notice, decree, statute, law, ordinance, rule or regulation applicable to the Shareholder, or to its property or assets.

12. Specific Enforcement; Effect of Breach Under Merger Agreement.
(a) The parties hereto agree that irreparable damage for which monetary relief, even if available, would not be an adequate remedy, would occur in the event that any provision of this Agreement is not performed in accordance with its specific terms or is otherwise breached. The parties acknowledge and agree that (a) the parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions, specific performance or other equitable relief to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof in the courts described in Section 13(b) without proof of damages or otherwise, this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled under this Agreement and (b) the right to specific enforcement is an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Merger Agreement and without that right, Parent would not have entered into this Agreement or the Merger Agreement.

(a) This Agreement, and all Actions (whether in contract, tort or statute) that may be based upon, arise out of or relate to this Agreement, or the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement (including any claim or cause of action based upon, arising out of or related to any representation or warranty made in or in connection with this Agreement or as an inducement to enter into this Agreement), shall in all respects be governed by, and construed and enforced in accordance with, the Laws of the State of Delaware applicable to agreements made and to be performed entirely within such state without giving effect to any conflicts of law principles of such state that might refer the governance, construction or interpretation of such agreements to the Laws of another jurisdiction.
8

18. Severability.
