WHEREAS, as an inducement to the Company’s willingness to enter into this Agreement, concurrently with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, each of the parties set forth on Exhibit A (the “Guarantors”) has delivered to the Company a guaranty (the “Guaranty”), pursuant to which the Guarantors have agreed to guarantee certain of the obligations of Parent and Merger Sub hereunder, and the Equity Commitment Letter (as defined below) pursuant to which the Guarantors have agreed to provide to Parent on the Closing Date the Equity Financing (as defined below); and

WHEREAS, the Parties desire to make certain representations, warranties, covenants and agreements specified herein in connection with the Merger and the other Transactions and to prescribe certain conditions to the Merger.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements contained herein, and intending to be legally bound hereby, the Parties agree as follows:

ARTICLE I

THE MERGER

Section 1.1 The Merger. Upon the terms and subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in this Agreement, and in accordance with the DGCL, at the Effective Time (as defined below), Merger Sub shall be merged with and into the Company, whereupon the separate existence of Merger Sub will cease, with the Company surviving the Merger (the Company, as the surviving entity in the Merger, sometimes being referred to herein as the “Surviving Corporation”), such that following the Merger, the Surviving Corporation will be a direct, wholly owned Subsidiary of Parent. The Merger shall have the effects provided in this Agreement and as specified in the DGCL.

Section 1.2 Closing. The closing of the Merger (the “Closing”) shall take place at the offices of Bass, Xxxxx & Xxxx PLC, 000 Xxxxx Xxxxxx Xxxxx, Xxxxx 0000, Xxxxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxx or, at the election of the Company or Parent, by the electronic exchange of documents, at 10:00 a.m., local time, on the third (3rd) Business Day after the satisfaction or waiver (to the extent permitted by applicable Law) of the last of the conditions set forth in ARTICLE VI (other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at or immediately prior to the Closing, but subject to the satisfaction or waiver of such conditions), or at such other place, date and time as the Company and Parent may agree in writing; provided, that the Closing shall not occur before the forty-fifth (45th) day following the date hereof without the prior written consent of Parent. The date on which the Closing actually occurs is referred to as the “Closing Date.”

Section 1.3 Effective Time. As soon as practicable on the Closing Date, the Parties shall cause a certificate of merger with respect to the Merger (the “Certificate of Merger”) to be duly executed and filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware (the “Delaware Secretary”) as provided under the DGCL and make any other filings, recordings or publications required to be made by the Company or Merger Sub under the DGCL in connection with the Merger. The Merger shall become effective at such time as the Certificate of Merger is duly filed with the Delaware Secretary or on such later date and time as shall be agreed to by the Company and Parent and specified in the Certificate of Merger (such date and time being hereinafter referred to as the “Effective Time”).

Section 1.4 Effects of the Merger. The effects of the Merger shall be as provided in this Agreement and in the applicable provisions of the DGCL. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, and subject thereto, at the Effective Time, all of the property, rights, privileges, powers and franchises of the Company and Merger Sub shall vest in the Surviving Corporation, and all debts, liabilities and duties of the Company and Merger Sub shall become the debts, liabilities and duties of the Surviving Corporation, all as provided under the DGCL.

Section 1.5 Organizational Documents of the Surviving Corporation.

(a) At the Effective Time, the Company Certificate, as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, shall be amended and restated in its entirety as set forth in Exhibit A until thereafter changed or amended as provided therein or by applicable Law (but subject to Section 5.10).

(b) The Parties shall take all necessary action such that, at the Effective Time, the Company Bylaws, as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, shall be amended and restated in their entirety as set forth in Exhibit B until thereafter changed or amended as provided therein or by applicable Law (but subject to Section 5.10).

Section 1.6 Directors.

Section 1.7 Officers. The Parties shall take all necessary action such that the officers of the Company immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be the officers of the Surviving Corporation as of the Effective Time and shall hold such offices until their respective successors are duly elected and qualified, or their earlier death, resignation or removal.

ARTICLE II

CONVERSION OF SHARES; EXCHANGE OF CERTIFICATES

Section 2.1 Effect on Capital Stock.

(a) At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of any of the Parties or the holder of any shares of common stock, $0.001 par value per share, of the Company (the “Company Common Stock”) or Merger Sub Common Stock:

(i) Conversion of Company Common Stock. At the Effective Time, subject to any applicable withholding Tax, each share of Company Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than any Cancelled Shares and any Dissenting Shares) shall be automatically converted into the right to receive $32.50 in cash, without interest (the “Transaction Consideration”). From and after the Effective Time, all such shares of Company Common Stock shall no longer be outstanding, and each applicable holder of such shares of Company Common Stock shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive the Transaction Consideration upon the surrender of such shares of Company Common Stock in accordance with Section 2.2, into which such shares of Company Common Stock have been converted pursuant to this Section 2.1(a).

(ii) Cancellation of Company Common Stock; Certain Subsidiary Owned Shares. At the Effective Time, each share of Company Common Stock that immediately prior to the Effective Time (x) is held in the treasury of the Company, or (y) is owned by any direct or indirect wholly-owned Subsidiary of the Company, Parent or any direct or indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent (including Merger Sub), shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be cancelled and shall cease to exist (such shares described in the foregoing clauses (x) and (y), the “Cancelled Shares”), and no consideration shall be delivered in exchange therefor.

(iii) Treatment of Merger Sub Shares. At the Effective Time, each issued and outstanding share of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of Merger Sub (the “Merger Sub Common Stock”) shall be automatically converted into and become one fully paid and nonassessable share of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Surviving Corporation and shall constitute the only outstanding shares of capital stock of the Surviving Corporation. From and after the Effective Time, all certificates representing shares of Merger Sub Common Stock shall be deemed for all purposes to represent the number of shares of common stock of the Surviving Corporation into which they were converted in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence.

All of the shares of Company Common Stock converted into the right to receive the Transaction Consideration pursuant to this ARTICLE II shall no longer be outstanding and upon the conversion thereof shall cease to exist as of the Effective Time, and uncertificated shares of Company Common Stock represented by book-entry form (“Book-Entry Shares”) and each certificate that, immediately prior to the Effective Time, represented any such shares of Company Common Stock (each, a “Certificate”) shall thereafter represent only the right to receive the Transaction Consideration into which the shares of Company Common Stock represented by such Book-Entry Share or Certificate have been converted pursuant to this Section 2.1(a).

(b) Shares of Dissenting Stockholders. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, any shares of Company Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and held by a Person (a “Dissenting Stockholder”) who has not voted in favor of the adoption of the Agreement and who has complied with all the provisions of the DGCL concerning the right of holders of shares of Company Common Stock to demand appraisal of their shares (the “Appraisal Provisions”) of Company Common Stock (“Dissenting Shares”), to the extent the Appraisal Provisions are applicable, shall not be converted into the right to receive the Transaction Consideration as described in Section 2.1(a)(i), but such holder shall be entitled to receive such consideration as may be determined to be due to such Dissenting Stockholder pursuant to the procedures set forth in Section 262 of the DGCL. If such Dissenting Stockholder, whether before, at or after the Effective Time, effectively withdraws its demand for appraisal or fails to perfect or otherwise loses its right of appraisal, in any case pursuant to the DGCL, each of such Dissenting Stockholder’s shares of Company Common Stock shall thereupon be treated as though such shares of Company Common Stock had been converted as of the Effective Time into the right to receive the Transaction Consideration pursuant to Section 2.1(a)(i) and such shares shall not be deemed to be Dissenting Shares. The Company shall give Parent prompt notice of any demands for appraisal of shares of Company Common Stock received by the Company, withdrawals of such demands and any other

instruments served pursuant to Section 262 of the DGCL and shall give Parent the opportunity to participate in all negotiations and proceedings with respect to demands for appraisal under the DGCL. The Company shall not, without the prior written consent of Parent, voluntarily make any payment to any Dissenting Stockholder with respect to, or settle or offer to settle, or approve the withdrawal of, any such demands.

(c) Adjustments. Without limiting the other provisions of this Agreement, if at any time during the period between the date of this Agreement and the Effective Time, any change in the number of outstanding shares of Company Common Stock shall occur as a result of a reclassification, recapitalization, stock split (including a reverse stock split) or similar event, or combination, exchange or readjustment of shares or any stock dividend or distribution with a record date during such period, the Transaction Consideration shall be equitably adjusted to provide the same economic effect as contemplated by this Agreement prior to such event. Nothing in this Section 2.1(c) shall be construed to permit any Party to take any action that is otherwise prohibited or restricted by any other provision of this Agreement.

Section 2.2 Exchange of Certificates and Book Entry Shares.

(a) Appointment of Paying Agent. Prior to the Effective Time, Parent shall appoint a bank or trust company (which bank or trust company shall be reasonably acceptable to the Company) to act as paying agent (the “Paying Agent”) for the payment of the Transaction Consideration in the Merger and shall enter into an agreement relating to the Paying Agent’s responsibilities under this Agreement, which shall be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Company.

(b) Deposit of Transaction Consideration. Parent shall deposit, or cause to be deposited, with the Paying Agent, prior to or concurrently with the Effective Time, cash sufficient to pay the aggregate Transaction Consideration payable in the Merger to holders of Company Common Stock, other than Cancelled Shares and Dissenting Shares (such cash, the “Payment Fund”); provided, that the Company shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, at the written request of Parent, deposit with the Paying Agent at the Closing such portion of the aggregate Transaction Consideration from the Company Cash on Hand as specified in such request.

(i) Certificates. Promptly after the Effective Time (and in any event within three (3) Business Days thereafter), Parent shall, and shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, cause the Paying Agent to mail to each holder of record of shares of a Certificate (i) a letter of transmittal in customary form (which shall specify that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to the Certificates shall pass, only upon delivery of the Certificates to the Paying Agent and shall otherwise be in such form and contain such provisions as are customary and reasonably acceptable to the Company) (the “Letter of Transmittal”) and (ii) instructions for use in effecting the surrender of Certificates in exchange for the payment of the Transaction Consideration payable in the Merger.

(ii) Book Entry Shares. Promptly after the Effective Time (and in any event within three (3) Business Days thereafter), Parent shall, and shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, cause the Paying Agent to mail to each holder of record of Book Entry Shares not held through The Depository Trust Company (and to deliver to The Depository Trust Company, in the case of holders of Book Entry Shares held through The Depository Trust Company) (i) a Letter of Transmittal and (ii) instructions for use in effecting the surrender of Book Entry Shares in exchange for payment of the Transaction Consideration payable in the Merger. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, no holder of Book-Entry Evidence shall be required to deliver a Certificate or, in the case of holders of Book-Entry Evidence held through The Depository Trust Company, an executed letter of transmittal to the Paying Agent to receive the Merger Consideration that such holder is entitled to receive.

(iii) Parent shall cause the Paying Agent to make, and the Paying Agent shall make, delivery of the Transaction Consideration out of the Payment Fund in accordance with this Agreement. The Payment Fund shall not be used for any purpose that is not expressly provided for in this Agreement.

(d) Surrender of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares. Upon surrender of Certificates (or affidavit of loss in lieu thereof) or Book-Entry Shares to the Paying Agent together with the Letter of Transmittal, duly completed and validly executed in accordance with the instructions thereto, and such other documents as may customarily be required by the Paying Agent, the holder of such Certificates or Book-Entry Shares shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor the Transaction Consideration. In the event of a transfer of ownership of shares of Company Common Stock that is not registered in the transfer or stock records of the Company, any cash to be paid upon due surrender of the Certificate (or affidavit of loss in lieu thereof) or Book-Entry Share formerly representing such shares of Company Common Stock may be paid or issued, as the case may be, to such a transferee if such Certificate (or affidavit of loss in lieu thereof) or Book-Entry Share is presented to the Paying Agent, accompanied by all documents required to evidence and effect such transfer and to evidence that any applicable stock transfer or other similar Taxes have been paid or are not applicable. No interest shall be paid or shall accrue on the Transaction Consideration payable upon surrender of any Certificate (or affidavit of loss in lieu thereof) or Book-Entry Share. Until surrendered as contemplated by this Section 2.2, each Certificate and Book-Entry Share shall be deemed at any time after the Effective Time to represent only the right to receive, upon such surrender, the Transaction Consideration. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, any holder of Book-Entry Shares shall not be required to deliver a Certificate or an executed letter of transmittal to the Paying Agent to receive the Transaction Consideration that such holder is entitled to receive pursuant to this ARTICLE II. In lieu thereof, each holder of record of one or more Book-Entry Shares whose Company Common Stock were converted into the right to receive the Transaction Consideration shall upon receipt by the Paying Agent of an “agent’s message” in customary form (or such other evidence, if any, as the Paying Agent may reasonably request), be entitled to receive, and Parent shall cause the Paying Agent to exchange and deliver as promptly as reasonably practicable after the Effective Time, the Transaction Consideration in respect of each such share of Company Common Stock, and the Book-Entry Shares of such holder shall forthwith be cancelled.

(e) No Further Ownership Rights in Company Common Stock. The Transaction Consideration paid in accordance with the terms of this ARTICLE II upon conversion of any shares of Company Common Stock shall be deemed to have been delivered and paid in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to such shares of Company Common Stock. From and after the Effective Time, (i) all holders of Certificates and Book-Entry Shares shall cease to have any rights as stockholders of the Company other than the right to receive the Transaction Consideration into which the shares represented by such Certificates or Book-Entry Shares have been converted pursuant to this Agreement upon the surrender of such Certificate (or affidavit of loss in lieu thereof) or Book-Entry Share in accordance with Section 2.2(d), without interest, and (ii) the stock transfer books of the Company shall be closed with respect to all shares of Company Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time. From and after the Effective Time, the stock transfer books of the Company shall be closed, and there shall be no further registration of transfers on the stock transfer books of the Surviving Corporation of shares of Company Common Stock that were outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time. If, at any time after the Effective Time, any Certificates (or affidavit of loss in lieu thereof) or Book-Entry Shares formerly representing shares of Company Common Stock are presented to the Surviving Corporation, Parent or the Paying Agent for any reason, such Certificates or Book-Entry Shares shall be cancelled and exchanged as provided in this ARTICLE II, subject to applicable Law in the case of Dissenting Shares.

(f) Investment of Payment Fund. The Paying Agent shall invest any cash included in the Payment Fund as directed by Parent; provided, that such investments shall be in obligations of or guaranteed by the United States of America, in commercial paper obligations rated A-1 or P-1 or better by Xxxxx’x Investors Service, Inc. or Standard & Poor’s Financial Services LLC, respectively, in certificates of deposit, bank repurchase agreements or banker’s acceptances of commercial banks with capital exceeding $1 billion, or in money market funds having a rating in the highest investment category granted by a recognized credit rating agency at the time of investment. No such investment or loss thereon shall affect the amounts payable to holders of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares pursuant to this ARTICLE II, and following any losses from any such investment, or to the extent the Payment Fund otherwise diminishes for any reason below the level required for the Paying Agent to make payments pursuant to this ARTICLE II, Parent shall promptly provide additional funds to the Paying Agent for the benefit of the holders of shares of Company Common Stock at the Effective Time in the amount of such losses or other shortfall, which additional funds will be deemed to be part of the Payment Fund. Any interest and other income resulting from such investment shall become a part of the Payment Fund, and any cash amounts in excess of the amounts payable under Section 2.1, shall be promptly returned to Parent.

(g) Termination of Payment Fund. Any portion of the Payment Fund (including any interest or other amounts received with respect thereto) that remains unclaimed by, or otherwise undistributed to, the holders of Certificates and Book-Entry Shares for twelve (12) months after the Effective Time shall be delivered to Parent, upon Parent’s demand, and any holder of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares who has not theretofore complied with this ARTICLE II shall thereafter look only to Parent or the Surviving Corporation for satisfaction of its claim for Transaction Consideration which such holder has the right to receive pursuant to this ARTICLE II.

(h) No Liability. None of Parent, the Company, Merger Sub or the Paying Agent shall be liable to any Person in respect of any portion of the Payment Fund or the Transaction Consideration delivered to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Law. If any Certificate or Book-Entry Share shall not have been surrendered immediately prior to the date on which any cash in respect of such Certificate or Book-Entry Share would otherwise escheat to or become the property of any Governmental Entity, any such cash in respect of such Certificate or Book-Entry Share shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, become the property of the Surviving Corporation, free and clear of all claims or interest of any Person previously entitled thereto.

(i) Lost Certificates. If any Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the Person claiming such Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed, in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Parent, and, if required by the Surviving Corporation, Parent or the Paying Agent, the posting by such Person of a bond in customary amount as Parent or the Paying Agent may reasonably require as indemnity against any claim that may be made against it or the Surviving Corporation with respect to such Certificate, the Paying Agent (or, if subsequent to the termination of the Payment Fund and subject to Section 2.2(g), Parent) shall deliver, in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate, the Transaction Consideration and any dividends and distributions deliverable in respect thereof pursuant to this Agreement had such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate been surrendered.

Section 2.3 Company Stock Awards. Except as otherwise agreed by Parent and an individual holder of Company Stock Awards or as set forth in Section 5.2(b)(iii) of the Company Disclosure Letter:

(a) Company Options. At the Effective Time, each option granted under the Company Stock Plans to purchase shares of Company Common Stock that is outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, whether vested or unvested (any such option, a “Company Option”), shall be cancelled and shall entitle the holder to receive, on or before the later of (i) five (5) Business Days following the Effective Time and (ii) the Surviving Corporation’s first payroll date after the Effective Time, an amount in cash (without interest and subject to applicable withholding Taxes) from the Surviving Corporation with respect thereto equal to the product of (A) the number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to such Company Option as of immediately prior to the Effective Time and (B) the excess, if any, of the Transaction Consideration over the exercise price per share of Company Common Stock subject to such Company Option as of immediately prior to the Effective Time. For the avoidance of doubt, any Company Option with an exercise price equal to or in excess of the Transaction Consideration shall be cancelled by virtue of the Merger without any action on the part of the holder thereof and without any payment to the holder thereof.

(b) Company MSU Awards. At the Effective Time, each market stock unit award (a “Company MSU Award”) granted under the Company Stock Plans that is outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time shall automatically become vested and shall be cancelled without any action on the part of any holder or beneficiary thereof and shall entitle the holder to receive, on or before the later of (i) five (5) Business Days following the Effective Time and (ii) the Surviving Corporation’s first payroll date after the Effective Time, an amount in

cash (without interest and subject to applicable withholding Taxes) from the Surviving Corporation with respect thereto equal to the product of (A) the number of shares of Company Common Stock that would have vested pursuant to the terms of such Company MSU Award based on actual performance through the Effective Time, and (B) the Transaction Consideration; provided, however, that to the extent that any Company MSU Award constitutes nonqualified deferred compensation subject to Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), such cash payment shall be paid in accordance with the applicable award’s terms and at the earliest time permitted under the terms of such award that will not result in the application of a Tax or penalty under Section 409A of the Code, including payment in accordance with any applicable exception or permitted payment event under Section 409A of the Code and Section 1.409A-3(j) of the Treasury Regulations.

(c) Company RSU Awards. At the Effective Time, each restricted stock unit award (a “Company RSU Award” and together with the Company Options and Company MSU Awards, the “Company Stock Awards”), whether or not granted under the Company Stock Plans , that is outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time shall automatically become fully vested and shall be cancelled and shall entitle the holder to receive, on or before the later of (i) five (5) Business Days following the Effective Time and (ii) the Surviving Corporation’s first payroll date after the Effective Time, an amount in cash (without interest and subject to applicable withholding Taxes) from the Surviving Corporation with respect thereto equal to the product of (A) the number of shares of Company Common Stock then underlying such Company RSU Award as of immediately prior to the Effective Time and (B) the Transaction Consideration; provided, however, that to the extent that any Company RSU Award constitutes nonqualified deferred compensation subject to Section 409A of the Code, such cash payment shall be paid in accordance with the applicable award’s terms and at the earliest time permitted under the terms of such award that will not result in the application of a Tax or penalty under Section 409A of the Code, including payment in accordance with any applicable exception or permitted payment event under Section 409A of the Code and Section 1.409A-3(j) of the Treasury Regulations.

(d) Prior to the Effective Time, the Company, the Company Board of Directors or the appropriate committee thereof, as applicable, shall adopt any resolutions and take any actions (excluding the payment of additional compensation in excess of the amounts provided for in this Section 2.3) which are reasonably necessary to effectuate the provisions of this Section 2.3.

Section 2.4 Tax Withholding. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, each of the Company, Parent, Merger Sub, the Surviving Corporation and the Paying Agent (and each of their respective agents or Affiliates) shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from amounts otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement, such amounts as may be required to be deducted or withheld with respect to the making of such payment under any applicable Law. Any amounts so deducted or withheld shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of which such deduction or withholding was made.

shall, in each case, have delivered to Parent an additional notice consistent with that described in clause (w) above of this proviso and a new notice period under clause (w) of this proviso shall commence (except that the four (4) Business Day notice period referred to above shall instead be equal to three (3) Business Days) during which time the Company shall be required to comply with the requirements of this Section 5.5(e) anew with respect to such additional notice, including clauses (w) through (z) above of this proviso.

(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, other than in connection with a Company Takeover Proposal, the Company Board of Directors may, at any time prior to, but not after, obtaining the Company Stockholder Approval, make a Company Adverse Recommendation Change in response to an Intervening Event if, prior to taking such action, the Company Board of Directors has determined in good faith, after consultation with its financial advisor and outside legal counsel, that the failure to take such action is reasonably likely to be inconsistent with the directors’ fiduciary duties under applicable Law, provided, however, that, prior to taking such action, (i) the Company has given Parent at least four (4) Business Days’ prior written notice of its intention to take such action, and specifying in reasonable detail the Intervening Event and the potential reasons that the Company Board of Directors is proposing to effect a Company Adverse Recommendation Change, (ii) to the extent requested in writing by Parent, the Company has negotiated, and has caused its Representatives to negotiate, in good faith with Parent during such four (4) Business Day period to enable Parent to propose revisions to the terms of this Agreement such that it would cause the Company Board of Directors to not make such Company Adverse Recommendation Change, and (iii) following the end of such four (4) Business Days period, the Company Board of Directors shall have considered in good faith any revisions to the terms of this Agreement to which Parent has committed in writing, and shall have determined, after consultation with its financial advisor and outside legal counsel (assuming the revisions committed to by Parent in writing were to be given effect), that the failure to make a Company Adverse Recommendation Change is reasonably likely to be inconsistent with the directors’ fiduciary duties under applicable Law.

(g) Nothing contained in this Section 5.5 shall prohibit the Company or the Company Board of Directors from complying with its disclosure obligations under United States federal or state Law with regard to a Company Takeover Proposal, including (i) taking and disclosing to the stockholders of the Company a position contemplated by Rule 14e-2(a), Rule 14d-9 or Item 1012(a) of Regulation MA promulgated under the Exchange Act or (ii) making any “stop, look and listen” communication to the stockholders of the Company pursuant to Rule 14d-9(f) under the Exchange Act if, in either case, the Company Board of Directors determines in good faith, after consultation with outside legal counsel, that the failure to do so is reasonably likely to be inconsistent with the directors’ fiduciary duties under applicable Law or obligations of the Company or the Company Board of Directors under applicable federal securities Law; provided, however, that this Section 5.5(g) shall not permit the Company Board of Directors to effect a Company Adverse Recommendation Change except to the extent otherwise permitted by this Section 5.5.

Section 5.6 Employee Matters.

(a) Until the first anniversary of the Effective Time (or, if earlier, the termination date of the applicable Continuing Employee) (the “Benefits Continuation Period”), the Surviving Corporation shall provide, or cause to be provided, for those employees of the Company and its Subsidiaries who continue as employees of the Surviving Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries during all or a portion of the Benefits Continuation Period (the “Continuing Employees”), compensation (including base salary and annual target and maximum bonus opportunities) and employee benefits (excluding any defined benefit pension, equity or equity-based, nonqualified deferred compensation, or post-termination or retiree health or welfare benefits) with respect to each Continuing Employee that shall not be materially less favorable in the aggregate than the compensation and employee benefits provided by the Company or the applicable Subsidiary to such Continuing Employee immediately prior to the Effective Time (subject to the same exclusions). Nothing herein shall be deemed to be a guarantee of employment for any current or former employee of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or other than as provided in any applicable employment agreement or other Contract, to restrict the right of Parent or the Surviving Corporation to terminate the employment of any such employee.

(b) The Surviving Corporation shall (i) waive, or cause to be waived, any applicable pre-existing condition exclusions and waiting periods with respect to participation and coverage requirements in any replacement or successor welfare benefit plan of the Surviving Corporation or any of its Affiliates in which a Continuing Employee is eligible to participate following the Effective Time to the extent such exclusions or waiting periods were inapplicable to, or had been satisfied by, such Continuing Employee immediately prior to the Effective Time under the analogous Company Benefit Plan in which such Continuing Employee participated, (ii) provide, or cause to be provided, each Continuing Employee with credit for any co-payments and deductibles paid prior to the Effective Time (to the same extent such credit was given under the analogous Company Benefit Plan prior to the Effective Time) in satisfying any applicable deductible or out-of-pocket requirements, and (iii) recognize, or cause to be recognized, service prior to the Effective Time with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries for purposes of eligibility to participate, vesting (for the avoidance of doubt, other than with respect to Company Stock Awards), determination of level of benefits and benefits accrual to the same extent such service was recognized by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries under the analogous Company Benefit Plan in which such Continuing Employee participated immediately prior to the Effective Time.

(c) From and after the Effective Time, Parent shall honor, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to honor, in accordance with its terms, (i) each employment, change in control, severance and termination protection plan, policy or agreement of or between the Company or any of its Subsidiaries and any current or former officer, director or employee, including, but not limited to, those identified in Section 5.6(c) of the Company Disclosure Letter and (ii) all obligations in effect as of the Effective Time pursuant to the Company Benefit Plans. Parent and Merger Sub acknowledge that the consummation of Merger and the other Transactions will constitute a “change in control” (or similar term) of the Company under the terms of the Company Benefit Plans containing provisions triggering payment, vesting or other rights upon a “change in control” or similar transaction.

(d) Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation and each of its Subsidiaries, for a period commencing at the Effective Time and ending ninety (90) days thereafter, not to effectuate a “plant closing” or “mass layoff” as those terms are defined in WARN affecting in whole or in part any site of employment, facility, or operating unit of the Surviving Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries, and shall cause the Surviving Corporation and each of its Subsidiaries not to take any such action after such ninety (90) day period without complying in all material respects with WARN.

(e) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, Parent shall or shall cause the Surviving Corporation to provide Continuing Employees whose employment terminates during the Benefits Continuation Period with severance benefits no less favorable than the severance benefits that would have been provided in accordance with the Company’s past practices or any severance plans, policies or commitments applicable to such Continuing Employee immediately prior to the Effective Time, if any, to the extent set forth on Section 5.6(e) of the Company Disclosure Letter.

(f) Nothing contained in this Agreement, whether express or implied, (i) shall be treated as an amendment or other modification of any Company Benefit Plan, (ii) shall create any third-party beneficiary rights in any Person in respect of continued employment by the Company, Parent, any of their respective Affiliates or otherwise, or (iii) subject to the requirements of this Section 5.6, shall limit the right of Parent or the Surviving Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries to amend, terminate or otherwise modify any Company Benefit Plan following the Closing Date.

Section 5.7 Regulatory Approvals; Efforts.

(a) Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, Parent, Merger Sub and the Company shall, and shall cause their respective Subsidiaries to, use their respective reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, as promptly as practicable, all actions necessary, proper or advisable to consummate the Merger as promptly as practicable, including to use their respective reasonable best efforts to, as promptly as practicable, (i) cause all of the conditions to Closing set out in ARTICLE VI to be satisfied, (ii) prepare and file all filings and submissions under the HSR Act, (iii) obtain the expiration or termination of any waiting periods under the HSR Act, and (iv) obtain all necessary material consents or waivers from non-Governmental Entity third parties (provided, that in no event shall the Company or its Subsidiaries be obligated to pay or to commit to pay to any Person whose consent or waiver is being sought any cash or other consideration, or make any accommodation or commitment or incur any liability or other obligation to such Person in connection with such consent or waiver). In furtherance and not in limitation thereof, not later than ten (10) Business Days following the date of this Agreement, the Company and Parent shall each make an appropriate filing of a notification and report form pursuant to the HSR Act with the Federal Trade Commission and the Antitrust Division of the United States Department of Justice with respect to the Merger and the other Transactions. Parent and the Company shall promptly notify the other Party of any notice or other communication from any Governmental Entity received by such Party alleging that such Governmental Entity’s consent is or may be required in connection with or as a condition to the consummation of the Merger or any other Transaction.

(b) The Company and Parent shall use reasonable best efforts to (i) cooperate and coordinate with the other Party in the taking of the actions contemplated by Section 5.7(a), (ii) provide such assistance as the other Party may reasonably request in connection with the foregoing, including supplying the other Party with any information (except for any notification and report form filed pursuant to the HSR Act) that the other Party may reasonably request in order to effectuate the taking of such actions, and (iii) keep the other Party reasonably and timely informed of any developments, meetings, or discussions with any Governmental Entity under any Antitrust Laws, and any inquiries or requests for additional information, from any Governmental Entity under any Antitrust Laws. If the Company or Parent receives a formal or informal request for additional information or documentary material from any Governmental Entity under any Antitrust Laws with respect to the Merger or the other Transactions, then it shall use reasonable best efforts to make, or cause to be made, as promptly as reasonably practicable and after consultation with the other Party, an appropriate response in compliance with such request. In addition, to the extent practicable, none of the Parties hereto shall participate in any substantive meeting or conference (telephone, video, in-person or otherwise) with any Governmental Entity, or any member of the staff of any Governmental Entity, in respect of any filing, Action, investigation (including any settlement of the investigation) or other inquiry under any Antitrust Laws unless it provides reasonable prior notice of such meeting or conference and consults with the other Party in advance and, where permitted by such Governmental Entity, allows the other Party to participate. To the extent reasonably practicable, legal counsel for Parent and for the Company shall have the right to review in advance, and will consult with the other Party on and consider in good faith the views of the other Party in connection with any substantive filing made with, or substantive written materials submitted to, any third party or Governmental Entity in connection with the Merger and the other Transactions. In exercising the foregoing rights, each of Parent and the Company shall act reasonably and as promptly as practicable. Information disclosed pursuant to this Section 5.7 shall be subject to the Confidentiality Agreement. However, (A) each of Parent and the Company may designate any information or material shared under this Section 5.7 as restricted to “Outside Counsel Only” and any such information or material shall not be shared with employees, officers, managers or directors or their equivalents of the other Party without approval of the disclosing Party, and (B) materials may be redacted (x) to remove references concerning the valuation of the Company, (y) as necessary to comply with contractual arrangements or applicable Law, and (z) as necessary to address reasonable attorney-client or other privilege concerns. Neither Parent nor the Company shall be required to comply with any of the foregoing provisions of this Section 5.7(b) to the extent that such compliance would be prohibited by applicable Law. The Company shall not voluntarily extend any waiting period under the HSR Act or associated with any consent of any Governmental Entity or enter into any agreement with any Governmental Entity not to consummate the Merger and the other Transactions, except with the prior written consent of Parent. The Parties acknowledge and agree that Parent shall have the principal responsibility for devising and implementing the strategy for obtaining any requisite regulatory approvals and be entitled to direct, control and lead communications, discussions, and negotiations under this Section 5.7, and the Company will cooperate reasonably, subject to applicable Law, therewith; provided, however, that Parent shall consult in advance (to the extent reasonably practicable) with the Company, and give due consideration in good faith to the Company’s views regarding such strategy, communications, discussions, and negotiations.

(c) In furtherance and not in limitation of the other provisions in this Section 5.7, Parent and Merger Sub agree to take, and to cause their respective controlled Affiliates to take, in each case as promptly as practicable (and in any event prior to the End Date), any and all steps necessary to avoid, eliminate or resolve each and every impediment under any Antitrust Law that may be asserted by any Governmental Entity and obtain all clearances, consents, approvals and waivers under Antitrust Laws that may be required by any Governmental Entity (including complying with all restrictions and conditions, if any, imposed or requested by any Governmental Entity in connection with granting any necessary consent, approval, Order, actions or nonactions, waiver or clearance, or terminating any applicable waiting period), so as to enable the Parties to close the Merger and the other Transactions as soon as practicable (and in any event no later than the End Date), including proposing, negotiating, committing to and effecting, by consent decree, hold separate orders, trust, or otherwise, (i) the sale, divestiture, license or other disposition of any Subsidiaries, operations, divisions, businesses, product lines, customers or assets of Parent or any of its controlled Affiliates (including the Company or any of its Subsidiaries after the Effective Time), (ii) any limitation or modification of any of the businesses, services, products or operations of Parent or any of its controlled Affiliates (including the Company or any of its Subsidiaries after the Effective Time), (iii) the termination, relinquishment, modification, or waiver of existing relationships, ventures, contractual rights, obligations or other arrangements of Parent or any of its controlled Affiliates (including the Company or any of its Subsidiaries after the Effective Time), and/or (iv) the creation of any relationships, ventures, contractual rights, obligations or other arrangements of Parent or any of its controlled Affiliates (including the Company or any of its Subsidiaries after the Effective Time) (each, a “Remedial Action”); provided, however, that Parent will not be required to take any Remedial Action that is not conditioned upon consummation of the Merger. In addition, in furtherance and not in limitation of the other provisions in this Section 5.7, Parent shall, and shall cause its controlled Affiliates to, take all actions (A) necessary to defend, including through pursuing litigation on the merits, any administrative or judicial action or Proceeding asserted or threatened by any Governmental Entity or any other Person under Antitrust Laws (including pursuing all available avenues of administrative and/or judicial appeal) that seeks, or would reasonably be expected to seek, to prevent, restrain, impede, delay, enjoin, or otherwise prohibit the consummation of the Merger or any of the other Transactions, and (B) necessary in order to avoid entry of, or to have vacated or terminated, any Order (whether temporary, preliminary or permanent) entered, issued or threatened that would prevent, restrain, impede, delay, enjoin or otherwise prohibit the consummation of the Merger or any of the other Transactions prior to the End Date or otherwise materially delaying the Closing or delaying the Effective Time beyond the End Date; provided, however, that the obligations set forth in this sentence shall not limit the obligation of Parent to take, and/or to cause its controlled Affiliates to take, any Remedial Action or to otherwise comply with its obligations set forth in this Section 5.7(c). The entry by any Governmental Entity of an Order requiring any Remedial Action shall not be deemed to constitute or result in a breach of any representation, warranty or covenant in this Agreement or a failure of any condition to the Transactions to be satisfied.

(d) Neither Parent nor Merger Sub shall, nor shall they permit their respective Subsidiaries to, acquire or agree to acquire any rights, assets, business, Person or divisions thereof (through acquisition, license, joint venture, collaboration or otherwise), if such acquisition would or would reasonably be expected to materially increase the risk of not obtaining any applicable consent, approval, Order, actions or nonactions, waiver or clearance under Antitrust Laws with respect to the Transactions, including the Merger.

Section 5.8 Takeover Statutes. None of Parent, the Company or their respective Subsidiaries shall take any action that would cause the Transactions to be subject to requirements imposed by any Takeover Statute. If any “moratorium”, “control share acquisition”, “fair price”, “supermajority”, “affiliate transactions” or “business combination statute or regulation” or other similar state anti-takeover Laws and regulations may become, or may purport to be, applicable to the Merger or any other Transactions, each of the Company and Parent and their respective boards of directors shall grant such approvals and take such actions as are reasonably necessary so that the Transactions may be consummated as promptly as practicable on the terms contemplated hereby and otherwise act to eliminate or minimize the effects of such statute or regulation on the Transactions.

Section 5.9 Public Announcements. Unless a Company Adverse Recommendation Change has occurred, the Parties shall consult with one another prior to issuing, and provide each other with the opportunity to review and comment upon, any public announcement, statement or other disclosure with respect to this Agreement or the Transactions and shall not issue any such public announcement or statement prior to such consultation, except as may be required by Law or by the rules and regulations of Nasdaq; provided, that each of the Company and Parent may make any public statements in response to questions by the press, analysts, investors or analyst or investor calls, so long as such statements are not inconsistent with previous statements made jointly by the Company and Parent (or made by one Party after having consulted with the other Party); provided, further, that the Company need not consult with Parent, and Parent need not consult with the Company, in connection with any public announcement, statement or other disclosure with respect to any Company Takeover Proposal (including any “stop, look and listen” communication), Company Superior Proposal, Company Adverse Recommendation Change or dispute among the Parties regarding this Agreement. The Company and Parent agree to issue a joint press release announcing the execution and delivery of this Agreement; provided, further, that Parent, Merger Sub and their respective Affiliates may, without consultation or consent, make ordinary course disclosure and communication to existing or prospective general or limited partners, equity holders, members, managers and investors of such Person or any Affiliates of such Person, in each case who are subject to customary confidentiality restrictions.

Section 5.10 Indemnification and Insurance.

(a) From and after the Effective Time, Parent shall, and Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, jointly and severally indemnify and hold harmless, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, each present and former director and officer of the Company as of the Effective Time and any of its Subsidiaries and any other Person entitled to indemnification under the Company Organizational Documents or Organizational Documents of the Company’s Subsidiaries (in each case, solely when acting in such capacity) (collectively, together with their respective heirs, executors and administrators, the “Company Indemnified Parties”) against any costs or expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines, losses, claims, damages or liabilities incurred in connection with any claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, arising out of or related to the fact that such Person is or was a Company Indemnified Party and pertaining to matters existing or

occurring or actions or omissions taken at or prior to the Effective Time, including (i) the Transactions, and (ii) actions to enforce this Section 5.10 and any other indemnification or advancement right of any Company Indemnified Party, and Parent shall, and Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, also advance expenses to the Company Indemnified Parties as incurred to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law; provided, that, to the extent required by applicable Law, the Company Indemnified Party to whom expenses are advanced provides an undertaking to repay such advances if it is ultimately determined by a final and nonappealable judicial determination that such Company Indemnified Party is not entitled to indemnification.

(b) All rights to indemnification and exculpation from liabilities for acts or omissions occurring at or prior to the Effective Time and rights to advancement of expenses relating thereto now existing in favor of any Company Indemnified Party or as provided in the Company Organizational Documents (or Organizational Documents of the Company’s Subsidiaries) or any indemnification agreements in existence as of the date hereof between such Company Indemnified Party and the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, shall survive the Transactions and shall continue in full force and effect in accordance with their terms, and shall not be amended, repealed or otherwise modified for a period of six (6) years after the Effective Time in any manner that would adversely affect the rights thereunder of such Company Indemnified Parties.

(c) Prior to the Effective Time, the Company may and, if the Company does not, Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, promptly following the Effective Time, obtain and fully pay the premium for the extension of the directors’ and officers’ liability coverage of the Company’s existing directors’ and officers’ insurance policies for a claims reporting or discovery period of at least six (6) years from and after the Effective Time from an insurance carrier with the same or better credit rating as the Company’s current insurance carrier with respect to directors’ and officers’ liability insurance and fiduciary liability insurance (“D&O Insurance”) with terms, conditions, retentions and limits of liability that are no less favorable to the Company Indemnified Parties than the Company’s existing policies. If neither the Company nor the Surviving Corporation obtains such a “tail” insurance policy as of the Effective Time, then, for a period of six (6) years after the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation shall cause to be maintained in effect the D&O Insurance in place as of the date hereof with terms, conditions, retentions and limits of liability that are no less favorable to the Company Indemnified Parties than those provided in the Company’s existing policies as of the date hereof (provided, that the Surviving Corporation may substitute therefor policies with a substantially comparable insurer of similar national reputation that have at least the same coverage and amounts as the D&O Insurance in place on the date hereof and containing terms, conditions, retentions and limits of liability which are no less favorable in the aggregate to the Company Indemnified Parties than those of the D&O Insurance in place on the date hereof) with respect to claims arising from facts or events, or actions or omissions, which occurred or are alleged to have occurred at or before the Effective Time; provided, however, that the Surviving Corporation shall not be obligated to make annual premium payments for such insurance to the extent such premiums exceed 300% of the premiums paid in 2021 by the Company for such insurance (the “Premium Cap”), and if such premiums for such insurance would at any time exceed the Premium Cap, then the Surviving Corporation shall cause to be maintained policies of insurance which, in the Surviving Corporation’s good faith determination, provide the maximum coverage available at an annual premium equal to the Premium Cap.

(d) The rights of each Company Indemnified Party pursuant to this Section 5.10 shall be in addition to, and not in limitation of, any other rights such Company Indemnified Party may have under the Company Organizational Documents (or the Organizational Documents of the Company’s Subsidiaries) or under any applicable Contracts or Law.

(e) If Parent or the Surviving Corporation or any of their respective successors or assigns (i) consolidate with or merge into any other corporation or entity and shall not be the continuing or Surviving Corporation or entity of such consolidation or merger or (ii) transfer all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any individual, corporation or other entity, then, and in each such case, proper provisions shall be made so that the successors and assigns of Parent or the Surviving Corporation shall assume all of the obligations set forth in this Section 5.10.

(f) The provisions of this Section 5.10 shall survive the Effective Time and are intended to be for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable by, each Company Indemnified Party. The Company Indemnified Parties are expressly intended as third party beneficiaries of this Section 5.10 and from and after the Effective Time, the provisions of this Section 5.10 shall not be terminated or modified in any manner that adversely affects any Company Indemnified Party without such Person’s prior written consent.

Section 5.11 Control of Operations. Without in any way limiting any Party’s rights or obligations under this Agreement, the Parties understand and agree that (a) nothing contained in this Agreement shall give Parent or the Company, directly or indirectly, the right to control or direct the other Party’s operations (or the operations of the other Party’s Subsidiaries) prior to the Effective Time and (b) prior to the Effective Time, each of the Company and Parent shall exercise, consistent with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, complete control and supervision over its operations.

Section 5.12 Section 16 Matters. Prior to the Effective Time, Parent and the Company shall take all such steps as may be required to cause any dispositions of Company Common Stock (including derivative securities with respect to Company Common Stock) resulting from the Transactions by each Person who is subject to the reporting requirements of Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act with respect to the Company (including any director designated by any such Person and including any Person to the extent deemed a director by deputization) or will become subject to such reporting requirements with respect to Parent, to be exempt under Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act.

Section 5.13 Transaction Litigation. The Company shall give Parent the opportunity to participate (at Parent’s sole cost and expense) in the defense or settlement of any stockholder Action against the Company or its current or former directors or executive officers relating to the Transactions, including the Merger; provided, that this Section 5.13 shall not give Parent the right to control such defense, and that the Company shall control such defense. Each of Parent and the Company shall notify the other promptly (and in any event within forty-eight (48) hours) of the commencement of any such stockholder Action of which it has received notice. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not settle any such litigation without the prior written consent of Parent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). Prior to the Effective Time, Parent shall not settle any action, claim, suit or proceeding related to the Transactions, including the Merger, unless such settlement provides a full and unconditional release for the Company and each officer and director of the Company party to such litigation.

Section 5.14 Exchange Delisting. The Company shall cooperate with Parent and use reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions reasonably necessary, proper or advisable on its part under applicable Laws and rules and policies of Nasdaq to enable the delisting of the Company Common Stock from Nasdaq and the termination of its registration under the Exchange Act, in each case, as promptly as reasonably practicable after the Effective Time, provided, that such delisting and termination shall not be effective until after the Effective Time.

Section 5.15 Additional Agreements. In case at any time after the Effective Time any further action is necessary or desirable to carry out the purposes of this Agreement or to vest the Surviving Corporation with full title to all properties, assets, rights, approvals, immunities and franchises of any of the Parties to the Merger, the officers of the Surviving Corporation shall be authorized to, in the name and on behalf of the Company, execute and deliver such deeds, bills of sale, assignment or assurances and take all such other action as may be necessary in connection therewith.

Section 5.16 Advice of Changes. The Company and Parent shall each promptly advise the other Party of (a) any notice or other written communication received from any counterparty to a material Contract with regard to any action, consent, approval or waiver that is required to be taken or obtained with respect to such Contract in connection with the consummation of the Transactions (and provide a copy thereof), or (b) any notice or other written communication from any other Person alleging that the consent of such Person is or may be required in connection with the Transactions (and provide a copy thereof). The Company shall promptly notify Parent of any written notice or other written communication from any party to any Company Material Contract to the effect that such party has terminated or intends to terminate or otherwise materially adversely modify its relationship with the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company as a result of the Transactions.

Section 5.17 Agreements Concerning Parent and Merger Sub.

(a) Parent shall cause Merger Sub and the Surviving Corporation to perform their respective obligations under this Agreement and to consummate the Transactions upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement.

(b) Parent shall, immediately following execution of this Agreement, approve this Agreement in its capacity as sole stockholder of Merger Sub by written consent in accordance with Section 228 of the DGCL and the articles of incorporation and bylaws (or other applicable Organizational Documents) of such Merger Sub.

Section 5.19 Financing Cooperation.

(a) Prior to the earlier of the Effective Time and the valid termination of this Agreement in accordance with ARTICLE VII, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to provide (and shall cause each Subsidiary of the Company and direct its and their respective Representatives to use reasonable best efforts to provide) such cooperation in connection with the arrangement of the Financing as is reasonably requested by Parent; provided, that the Company shall in no event be required to provide such assistance to the extent it would unreasonably interfere with the business or operations of the Company and its Subsidiaries. Such assistance shall include using reasonable best efforts to assist Parent in connection with arranging the Debt Financing, including using reasonable best efforts to do the following, each of which shall be at Parent’s written request with reasonable prior notice and at Parent’s sole cost and expense:

(i) deliver to Parent the Debt Financing Deliverables;

(ii) facilitate and assist in the preparation and negotiation of the Debt Financing Documents, including one or more credit agreements, pledge and security agreements, guarantees, certificates (including a solvency certificate) and other definitive financing documents as may be reasonably requested by Parent (including furnishing all (A) information relating to the Company and its Subsidiaries and their respective businesses to be included in any schedules thereto or in any perfection certificates and (B) stock certificates and any other pledged collateral to the extent held by the Company and its Subsidiaries); provided, that (x) the foregoing documentation (or, as applicable, the pledge of such pledged collateral) (other than the customary authorization letters described herein) shall be subject to the occurrence of the Closing and become effective no earlier than the Effective Time, and (y) in no event shall the Company or any of its officers, director or employees (other than Persons continuing in such roles after Closing) be required to approve, ratify or execute any of the Debt Financing Documents (other than the customary authorization letters described herein) prior to the consummation of the Merger (unless contingent on the consummation of the Merger);

(iii) make available to Parent, its advisors and its Financing Sources such financial and other pertinent information regarding the Company and each Subsidiary of the Company as may be reasonably requested by Parent, its advisors or its Financing Sources, including (I) the financial statements and other information necessary to satisfy the conditions set forth in paragraph 5 of Exhibit C of the Debt Commitment Letter, (II) unaudited financial statements of the Company for each fiscal quarter of the Company ended forty-five (45) days prior to the Closing and the audited financial statements of the Company for any fiscal year of the Company ended ninety (90) days prior to the Closing; (III) such information as is necessary to allow Parent, its advisors and its Financing Sources to prepare pro forma financial statements and (IV) customary authorization letters; and

(iv) assist with the preparation of lender and investor presentations, rating agency presentations, bank information memoranda, marketing materials and other similar documents and materials in connection with the Debt Financing, participate in a reasonable number of meetings, presentations, road shows, drafting sessions and due diligence sessions (in each case, including via video conference) with providers or potential providers of the Debt Financing and ratings agencies and otherwise assist in the marketing efforts of Parent and its Financing Sources;

provided, that nothing in this Section 5.19 shall require (w) any such action to the extent it would (1) unreasonably interfere with the business or operations of the Company or require the Company to agree to pay any fees, reimburse any expenses or give any indemnities, in any case prior to the Closing, for which Parent does not promptly reimburse or indemnify it, as the case may be, under this Agreement, (2) require the Company, or any of its Subsidiaries or their respective Representatives to execute, deliver or enter into any Debt Financing Document (other than the customary authorization letters described herein (provided that any confidential information memoranda or marketing materials distributed in connection therewith shall include language that exculpates the Company, each of its Subsidiaries and their respective Representatives and Affiliates from any liability in connection with the unauthorized use by the recipients thereof of the information set forth in such confidential information memoranda or marketing materials)) prior to the Closing and consummation of the Merger, or (3) require the Company to deliver or cause the delivery of any Debt Financing Document or take any other action prior to the Closing and consummation of the Merger that would reasonably be expected to result in liability to the Company or its Representatives in connection with the Financing, (x) any of the board of directors (or other similar governing body) of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (other than Persons continuing in such roles after Closing) to adopt resolutions approving the Debt Financing Documents prior to the Closing and consummation of the Merger (and any such adoption or approval at Closing shall be performed by such board of directors (or other similar governing body) as constituted after the Effective Time and Closing), and (y) the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to provide any information to the extent it would (1) violate applicable Law or the provisions of any Contract not entered into in contemplation hereof (including any confidentiality agreement or similar agreement or arrangement) to which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is a party, (2) jeopardize any attorney-client or other legal privilege or (3) violate any applicable confidentiality obligation of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries not entered into in contemplation hereof so long as that the Company provides Parent written notice of any information so withheld and reasonably cooperates with Parent in seeking to allow disclosure of such information in a manner that is not reasonably likely to violate such applicable Law or Contract, jeopardize such attorney-client or other legal privilege or violate any such confidentiality obligation.

(b) Parent shall indemnify and hold harmless the Company and its Subsidiaries, and each of their respective Representatives, from and against any and all losses incurred in connection with the Financing or any information, assistance or activities provided under this Section 5.19, except to the extent arising from (i) any material inaccuracy of any historical information furnished in writing by or on behalf of the Company or its Subsidiaries, including financial statements or (ii) the gross negligence, fraud, bad faith or willful misconduct of the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective Representatives. Parent shall reimburse the Company and its Subsidiaries for any reasonable, documented out-of-pocket third party costs and expenses incurred by the Company and its Subsidiaries and each of their Representatives in connection with the Financing or such assistance under this Section 5.19.

(c) The Company hereby consents to (i) the use of the financial statements and other information provided under this Section 5.19 in connection with the Debt Financing and (ii) the use of the logos of the Company and each of its Subsidiaries in connection with the Debt Financing; provided, that such logos shall be used solely in a manner that would reasonably be expected to harm, disparage or otherwise adversely affect the Company and/or its Subsidiaries or their reputation or goodwill.

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, it is understood and agreed that the condition precedent set forth in Section 6.2(b), as applied to the Company’s obligations under this Section 5.19, shall be deemed to be satisfied unless a proximate cause of the Debt Financing having not been obtained is (i) the Company, its Subsidiaries or their respective Representatives having breached the obligations under this Section 5.19 in any material respect, (ii) Parent having notified the Company of such breach in writing, detailing reasonable steps that comply with this Section 5.19 in order to cure such breach and (iii) the Company, its Subsidiaries or their respective Representatives having not taken such steps or otherwise cured such breach a reasonably sufficient time prior to the End Date for Parent (in its reasonable determination) to consummate the Debt Financing.

(e) All Information (as such term is defined in the Confidentiality Agreement) obtained by Parent or its representatives shall be kept confidential in accordance with the Confidentiality Agreement, except that Parent shall be permitted to disclose such information to Parent’s or its Affiliates’ Financing Sources, rating agencies and prospective lenders and investors in connection with the arrangement and/or syndication of the Financing subject to each prospective recipient’s entering into customary confidentiality undertakings with respect to such information.

Section 5.20 Financing.

(a) Prior to the earlier of the Effective Time and the valid termination of this Agreement in accordance with ARTICLE VII, Parent shall use its reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions and do, or cause to be done, all things necessary or advisable to arrange and obtain and consummate the Financing on or prior to the Closing Date, including, but not limited to, using its reasonable best efforts with respect to the following items: (i) maintaining in effect the Commitment Letters (subject to replacement in compliance with this Agreement or as required by Section 5.20 following a Financing Failure Event); (ii) satisfying on a timely basis all Financing Conditions applicable to Parent and Merger Sub (other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing, but subject to the satisfaction or waiver of such conditions at the Closing); (iii) negotiating, executing and delivering Debt Financing Documents that reflect terms no less favorable to Parent than the terms contained in the Debt Commitment Letter (except to the extent acceptable to Parent in its sole discretion, so long as any new or revised terms would not be Prohibited Financing Amendments); (iv) in the event that the conditions set forth in Section 6.1 and Section 6.2 and the Financing Conditions have been satisfied or, upon funding would be satisfied, use its reasonable best efforts to cause the Financing Sources to fund the amount of the Debt Financing and the Guarantors to fund the

amount of the Equity Financing necessary to fund the Required Funding Amount; and (v) enforcing Parent’s rights under the Debt Commitment Letter in the event of a Financing Failure Event. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, in no event shall the reasonable best efforts of Parent require or be deemed or construed to require Parent to (I) seek equity financing from any source (other than the Equity Financing), (II) pay any fees materially in excess of those contemplated by the Debt Commitment Letter (whether to secure waiver of any conditions contained therein or otherwise) or (III) arrange or obtain any Alternative Financing having terms and conditions (including any flex provisions applicable thereto) that are materially less favorable to Parent than those set forth in the Debt Commitment Letter (except to the extent acceptable to Parent in its sole discretion, so long as any such less favorable terms would not be Prohibited Financing Amendments).

(b) Parent shall give the Company prompt notice of any breach that would reasonably be expected to materially delay or prevent the Closing or repudiation by any party to any Commitment Letter of which Parent or its Affiliates becomes aware. Without limiting Parent’s other obligations under this Section 5.20, if a Financing Failure Event occurs, Parent shall (i) promptly notify the Company of such Financing Failure Event and the reasons therefor, (ii) use its reasonable best efforts to obtain alternative financing (“Alternative Financing”) from the original Financing Sources or alternative Financing Sources on terms and conditions that are no less favorable to Parent than those set forth in the Debt Commitment Letter (except to the extent acceptable to Parent in its sole discretion, so long as any such less favorable terms would not be Prohibited Financing Amendments); provided, that the Parent and Merger Sub shall not be required to pay any fees in excess of those contemplated by the Debt Commitment Letter (including any “flex” provisions applicable thereto), and the Alternative Financing shall not effect any Prohibited Financing Amendments, and (iii) use its reasonable best efforts to obtain, and when obtained, provide the Company with a true and complete copy of, a new financing commitment letter and related fee letter that provides for such Alternative Financing (with any such Alternative Financing being deemed to constitute “Debt Financing”, the commitment letter and fee letter with respect thereto (which fee letter may be redacted in the manner contemplated by Section 4.11) being deemed to constitute a “Debt Commitment Letter” and the definitive documentation with respect thereto being deemed to constitute the “Debt Financing Documents”). Neither Parent nor any of its Affiliates shall, without the prior consent of the Company (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), amend, modify, supplement, restate, substitute or replace any of the Commitment Letters except for (i) substitutions and replacements pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence and/or (ii)(1) with respect to the Debt Commitment Letter, any such amendment, modification, supplement, restatement, substitution or replacement that would not (A) reduce the aggregate amount of the Debt Financing below the amount, taking into account all other sources of proceeds, necessary to fund the Required Funding Amount, (B) impose new or additional conditions or expand any of the conditions to the receipt of the Debt Financing in a manner that would reasonably be expected to (I) materially delay or prevent the Closing or (II) make the timely funding of the Debt Financing or satisfaction of the conditions to obtaining the Debt Financing on or prior to the Closing Date less likely to occur, or (C) adversely impact the ability of Parent to enforce its rights against any other party to the Debt Commitment Letter (the limitations set forth in this clause (1), the “Prohibited Financing Amendments”); provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, Parent may amend, modify, supplement, restate, substituted or replace the Debt Commitment Letter (x) in accordance with the “market flex” provisions thereof, and/or (y) to

add lenders, lead arrangers, bookrunners, agents, managers or other entities who had not executed the Debt Commitment Letters as of the date of this Agreement; or (2) with respect to the Equity Commitment Letter, any such amendment, modification, supplement, restatement, substitution or replacement would not (A) add new (or otherwise expand, amend or modify any existing) conditions to the consummation of all or any portion of the Equity Financing, (B) reduce the amount of the Equity Financing below the amount, taking into account all other sources of proceeds, necessary to fund the Required Funding Amount, (C) adversely affect in any material respect the ability of Parent to enforce its rights against the other parties to the Equity Commitment Letter, as so amended, modified, supplemented, restated, substituted or replaced, relative to the ability of Parent to enforce its rights against such other parties to the Equity Commitment Letter as in effect on the date hereof, or (D) otherwise be reasonably expected to delay materially or prevent the Closing. Upon written request from the Company, Parent shall keep the Company informed on a reasonably current basis and in reasonable detail of the status of Parent’s efforts to arrange the Debt Financing. Parent and Merger Sub expressly acknowledge and agree that their obligations under this Agreement, including their obligations to consummate the Merger, are not subject to, or conditioned on, Parent’s or Merger Sub’s receipt of financing.

Section 5.21 Delivery of FIRPTA Certification and Notice. On the Closing Date, the Company shall deliver to Parent a certification, dated as of the Closing Date and signed by a responsible corporate officer of the Company, that an interest in the Company is not a “United States real property interest” as defined in Section 897(c)(1)(A) of the Code because the Company is not, and has not been at any time during the five (5) years preceding the date of such certification, a “United States real property holding corporation” as defined in Section 897(c)(2) of the Code, together with a signed notice as contemplated by Treasury Regulations Section 1.897-2(h), which Parent shall be entitled to file or cause to be filed with the IRS.

Section 7.2 Effect of Termination. In the event of termination of this Agreement pursuant to and in accordance with Section 7.1, this Agreement shall terminate and become void and of no effect (except that the Confidentiality Agreement and the provisions of Section 3.26, Section 4.16, Section 5.2(d), this Section 7.2, Section 7.3, Section 7.4 and ARTICLE VIII shall survive any termination), and there shall be no other liability on the part of the Company, on the one hand, or Parent or Merger Sub, on the other hand, to the other except as provided in Section 7.3 and Section 7.4; provided, however, that, subject to Section 7.3 and Section 7.4, if such termination shall result from the Willful and Material Breach of any provision of this Agreement or any Fraud by any Party, such Party shall not be relieved or released from any liabilities or damages arising out of its Willful and Material Breach of any provision of this Agreement or its Fraud. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, in no event shall the Parent Related Parties have any monetary liability or obligations under this Agreement in the event this Agreement is validly terminated pursuant to Section 7.1, (including any monetary liability or obligation pursuant to Section 5.19, Section 5.20, this Section 7.2 and Section 7.3) in the aggregate amount greater than the Parent Termination Fee plus the Enforcement Expenses pursuant to Section 7.4. The Parties acknowledge and agree that nothing in this Section 7.2, Section 7.3(c) or Section 7.4(c) shall be deemed to affect their right to specific performance under Section 8.5.

Section 7.3 Company Termination Fee.

(b) “Company Termination Fee” shall mean a cash amount equal to $54,371,114.

(c) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Parties agree that if this Agreement is terminated in accordance with any provision under which payment of the Company Termination Fee is required hereunder or is terminated at a time at which this Agreement is then terminable under any provision that would trigger the Company’s obligation to pay the Company Termination Fee, then, except in the case of Fraud or a Willful and Material Breach occurring prior to such termination, upon receipt of such payment by Parent, (i) the payment of such Company Termination Fee in accordance with this Section 7.3, shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of Parent and Merger Sub for any loss suffered as a result of any breach of any covenant or agreement in this Agreement or the failure of the Transactions to be consummated, and (ii) none of the Company, its Subsidiaries or any of their respective former, current or future stockholders, directors, officers, Affiliates, agents or other Representatives (collectively, the “Company Parties”) shall have any further liability of any kind for any reason arising out of or in connection with the Transactions. In the event that Parent or Merger Sub receives any payments from the Company in respect of a breach of this Agreement and thereafter Parent is entitled to receive the Company Termination Fee under this Section 7.3, the amount of such Company Termination Fee shall be reduced by the aggregate amount of any payments made by the Company to Parent or Merger Sub. In no event shall Parent be entitled to more than one payment of the full Company Termination Fee in connection with a termination of this Agreement pursuant to which such Company Termination Fee is payable.

(d) Each of the Parties hereto acknowledges that the Company Termination Fee is not intended to be a penalty, but rather is liquidated damages in a reasonable amount that will compensate Parent in the circumstances in which such Company Termination Fee is due and payable and which do not involve Fraud or a Willful and Material Breach, for the efforts and resources expended and opportunities foregone while negotiating this Agreement and in reliance on this Agreement and on the expectation of the consummation of the Transactions, which amount would otherwise be impossible to calculate with precision.

(e) Each of the Company, Parent and Merger Sub acknowledges that the agreements contained in this Section 7.3 are an integral part of the Transactions, and that, without these agreements, the Company, Parent and Merger Sub would not enter into this Agreement. Accordingly, if the Company fails to pay in a timely manner any amount due pursuant to Section 7.3(a), and, in order to obtain such payment, Parent or Merger Sub commences a suit that results in a judgment against the Company for the amounts set forth in this Section 7.3 or any portion thereof, then (i) the Company shall reimburse Parent for all costs and expenses (including disbursements and reasonable fees of counsel) incurred in connection with the collection under and enforcement of this Section 7.3 and (ii) the Company shall pay to Parent interest on such amount from and including the date payment of such amount was due to but excluding the date of actual payment at the prime rate set forth in The Wall Street Journal in effect on the date such payment was required to be made plus two percent (2%).

Section 7.4 Parent Termination Fee.

(a) If this Agreement is terminated by (x) the Company pursuant to and in accordance with Section 7.1(e) or Section 7.1(i) or (y) the Company or Parent pursuant to and in accordance with Section 7.1(c) if, at the time of such termination, the Company would have been entitled to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 7.1(e) or Section 7.1(i), Parent shall pay, or cause to be paid, to the Company the Parent Termination Fee by wire transfer (to an account designated by Parent) in immediately available funds within two (2) Business Days after such termination.

(b) “Parent Termination Fee” shall mean a cash amount equal to $100,377,441.

(c) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Parties agree that if this Agreement is terminated in accordance with any provision under which payment of the Parent Termination Fee is required hereunder or is terminated at a time at which this Agreement is then terminable under any provision that would trigger Parent’s obligation to pay the Parent Termination Fee, then, upon receipt of such payment by Company, (i) the payment of such Parent Termination Fee in accordance with this Section 7.4, shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of the Company for any loss suffered as a result of any breach of any covenant or agreement in this Agreement or the failure of the Transactions to be consummated, and (ii) none of the Parent Related Parties or their Representatives shall have any further liability of any kind for any reason arising out of or in connection with the Transactions. In the event that the Company receives any payments from Parent in respect of a breach of this Agreement and thereafter the Company is entitled to receive the Parent Termination Fee under this Section 7.4, the amount of such Parent Termination Fee shall be reduced by the aggregate amount of any payments made by Parent to the Company. In no event shall the Company be entitled to more than one payment of the full Parent Termination Fee in connection with a termination of this Agreement pursuant to which such Parent Termination Fee is payable.

(d) Each of the Parties hereto acknowledges that the Parent Termination Fee is not intended to be a penalty, but rather is liquidated damages in a reasonable amount that will compensate the Company in the circumstances in which such Parent Termination Fee is due and payable and which do not involve Fraud or a Willful and Material Breach, for the efforts and resources expended and opportunities foregone while negotiating this Agreement and in reliance on this Agreement and on the expectation of the consummation of the Transactions, which amount would otherwise be impossible to calculate with precision.

(e) Each of the Company, Parent and Merger Sub acknowledges that the agreements contained in this Section 7.4 are an integral part of the Transactions, and that, without these agreements, the Company, Parent and Merger Sub would not enter into this Agreement. Accordingly, if Parent fails to pay in a timely manner any amount due pursuant to Section 7.4(a), and, in order to obtain such payment, the Company commences a suit that results in a judgment against Parent for the amounts set forth in this Section 7.4 or any portion thereof, then (i) the Parent shall reimburse the Company for costs and expenses (including disbursements and reasonable fees of counsel) incurred in connection with the collection under and enforcement of this Section 7.4 (collectively, “Enforcement Expenses”) and (ii) Parent shall pay to the

Company interest on such amount from and including the date payment of such amount was due to but excluding the date of actual payment at the prime rate set forth in The Wall Street Journal in effect on the date such payment was required to be made plus two percent (2%); provided, however, that in no event shall the Enforcement Expenses payable by the Company, on the one hand, or the Enforcement Expenses payable by Parent and Merger Sub, on the other hand, exceed $7.5 million in the aggregate.

Section 7.5 Limitation on Remedies. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the maximum aggregate liability of Parent, Merger Sub and their respective Affiliates in the event Parent or Merger Sub fails to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or otherwise fails to comply with or breaches any covenant or other obligation or representation and warranty in this Agreement shall not exceed the sum of (i) the Parent Termination Fee and (ii) the Enforcement Expenses. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, it is agreed that, although the Company, in its sole discretion, may determine its choice of remedies hereunder, including by pursuing specific performance in accordance with, but subject to the limitations of, Section 8.5, under no circumstances will the Company or any of its Affiliates be permitted or entitled to receive both specific performance that results in the occurrence of the Closing and any monetary damages.

ARTICLE VIII

MISCELLANEOUS

Section 8.1 No Survival of Representations and Warranties. None of the representations, warranties, covenants or agreements in this Agreement or in any instrument delivered pursuant to this Agreement shall survive the Merger; provided, that this Section 8.1 shall not limit any covenant or agreement of the Parties which by its terms contemplates performance or compliance in whole or in part after the Effective Time or otherwise expressly by its terms survives the Effective Time (including the provisions of Section 3.26, Section 4.16, Section 5.6 and Section 5.10).

Section 8.2 Expenses. Whether or not the Merger is consummated, all costs and expenses incurred in connection with the Merger, this Agreement and the other Transactions shall be paid by the Party incurring or required to incur such expenses; provided, however, that Parent shall be responsible for the payment of any and all filing fees under the HSR Act; provided, further, that each of Parent and the Surviving Corporation agrees to assume liability for and pay any sales, transfer, stamp, stock transfer, value added, use, real property transfer or gains and any similar Taxes, as well as any transfer, recording, registration and other fees that may be imposed upon, payable or incurred in connection with this Agreement, the Merger and the other Transactions.

Section 8.3 Counterparts; Effectiveness. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, with the same effect as if the signatures thereto and hereto were upon the same instrument, and shall become effective when one or more counterparts have been signed by each of the Parties and delivered (by telecopy, electronic delivery or otherwise) to the other Parties. Signatures to this Agreement transmitted by facsimile transmission, by electronic mail in “portable document format” (“.pdf”) form, or by any other electronic means intended to preserve the original graphic and pictorial appearance of a document, will have the same effect as physical delivery of the paper document bearing the original signature.

Section 8.4 Governing Law. This Agreement, and all claims or causes of action (whether at Law, in contract or in tort or otherwise) that may be based upon, arise out of or relate to this Agreement or the negotiation, execution or performance hereof, shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of Delaware or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the Laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of Delaware.

Section 8.5 Jurisdiction; Specific Enforcement. 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 in the event of any actual or threatened breach thereof, and that money damages or other legal remedies would not be an adequate remedy for any such damages. It is accordingly agreed that, in addition to any other remedy that may be available to it, including monetary damages (subject to the limitations set forth in Section 7.4), each of the Parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions, specific performance and other equitable relief to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement (including the obligation of the Parties to consummate the Transactions and the obligation of Parent and Merger Sub to pay, and the Company’s stockholders’ right to receive, the aggregate consideration payable to them pursuant to the Transactions, in each case in accordance with the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement), without proof of actual damages (in addition to any other remedy to which any party is entitled at law or in equity), exclusively in the Delaware Court of Chancery and any state appellate court therefrom within the State of Delaware (or, if the Delaware Court of Chancery declines to accept jurisdiction over a particular matter, any state or federal court within the State of Delaware). In the event that any action is brought in equity to enforce the provisions of this Agreement, no Party shall allege, and each Party hereby waives the defense or counterclaim, that there is an adequate remedy at law or that the award of specific performance is not an appropriate remedy for any reason at law or equity. The Parties further agree that no Party to this Agreement shall be required to obtain, furnish or post any bond or similar instrument in connection with or as a condition to obtaining any remedy referred to in this Section 8.5 and each Party irrevocably waives any objection to the imposition of such relief or any right it may have to require the obtaining, furnishing or posting of any such bond or similar instrument.

Each of the Parties hereto hereby irrevocably submits with regard to any such suit, action or proceeding for itself and in respect of its property, generally and unconditionally, to the personal jurisdiction of the aforesaid courts and agrees that it will not bring any action relating to this Agreement or the Transactions in any court other than the aforesaid courts. Each of the Parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert, by way of motion, as a

defense, counterclaim or otherwise, in any suit, action or proceeding with respect to this Agreement, (i) any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of the above named courts, (ii) any claim that it or its property is exempt or immune from jurisdiction of any such court or from any legal process commenced in such courts (whether through service of notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution of judgment, execution of judgment or otherwise) and (iii) to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, any claim that (A) the suit, action or proceeding in such court is brought in an inconvenient forum, (B) the venue of such suit, action or proceeding is improper or (C) this Agreement, or the subject matter hereof, may not be enforced in or by such courts. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, each of the Parties hereto hereby consents to the service of process in accordance with Section 8.7; provided, however, that nothing herein shall affect the right of any Party to serve legal process in any other manner permitted by Law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is explicitly agreed that the right of the Company to an injunction, specific performance or other equitable remedies enforcing Parent’s and Merger Sub’s obligations to cause the Equity Financing to be funded and to effect the Closing shall only be available if: (a) all conditions in Section 6.1 and Section 6.2 have been and continue to be satisfied or irrevocably waived (other than conditions that are to be satisfied by actions taken at the Closing, which shall be capable of being satisfied at the Closing and will be satisfied at the Closing), (b) the Debt Financing has been funded or will be funded at the Closing if the Equity Financing is funded, and (c) the Company has irrevocably confirmed in a written notice that (i) the Company is ready, willing and able to consummate the Closing and (ii) all of the conditions set forth in Section 6.1 and Section 6.2 have been satisfied or waived (other than conditions that are to be satisfied by actions taken at the Closing, which shall be capable of being satisfied at the Closing and will be satisfied at the Closing) and that if specific performance is granted and the Equity Financing and the Debt Financing are funded, then the Company would take such actions required of it by this Agreement to cause the Closing to occur.

Section 8.9 Severability.

If any provision of this Agreement, or the application thereof to any Person or any circumstance, is invalid or unenforceable, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith to determine a suitable and equitable provision to be substituted therefor in order to carry out, so far as may be valid and enforceable, the intent and purpose of such invalid or unenforceable provision.

The Parties further agree that the rights of third party beneficiaries under Section 3.26, Section 4.16, Section 5.6 and Section 5.10 shall not arise unless and until the Effective Time occurs. The representations and warranties in this Agreement are the product of negotiations among the Parties and are for the sole benefit of the Parties.
