Until the Effective Time, the shares of Hampton Common Stock represented by the Spin Off Stock Certificates are not transferable and Parent’s transfer agent may not deliver any shares of Hampton Common Stock represented by the Spin Off Stock Certificates to any Parent Stockholder. At or after the Effective Time, Parent’s transfer agent will deliver the Spin Off Stock Certificates to the Parent Stockholders.

2.2 The Merger. (a) On the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement and in accordance with the provisions of the DGCL and the FBCA, at the Effective Time, Apple will merge with and into Hampton.

Following the Merger, Hampton will continue as the Surviving Corporation and the separate corporate existence of Apple will cease.

(b) On the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, the closing of the Spin Off and the Merger (the “Closing”) will take place at the offices of Xxxxx Day, 000 Xxxx 00^xx Xxxxxx, Xxx Xxxx, Xxx Xxxx, at 10:00 a.m., New York City time, as soon as practicable, but in no event later than the third Business Day, following satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in Article VII hereof (other than those conditions, including the Spin Off, that by their nature or pursuant to the terms of this Agreement are to be satisfied or waived at or immediately prior to the Closing, but subject to the satisfaction or, where permitted, the waiver of those conditions), or at such other date, time or place as Parent and Apple may agree. The date on which the Closing occurs is referred to as the “Closing Date.”

(c) The Merger will become effective as set forth in the certificate of merger and articles of merger relating thereto (collectively, the “Certificate of Merger”) that will be filed on the Closing Date with the Secretaries of State of the States of Delaware and Florida in accordance with Section 252 of the DGCL and Section 607.1105 of the FBCA. The time that the Merger becomes effective in accordance with Section 252 of the DGCL and Section 607.1105 of the FBCA, which will be after the consummation of the Spin Off, is referred to in this Agreement as the “Effective Time.”

(d) The Merger will have the effects set forth in the DGCL and the FBCA. Without limiting the generality or effect of the foregoing, as of the Effective Time, all properties, rights, privileges, powers and franchises of Hampton and Apple will vest in the Surviving Corporation and all debts, liabilities and duties of Hampton and Apple will become debts, liabilities and duties of the Surviving Corporation.

2.3 Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws. The amended and restated certificate of incorporation (“Certificate of Incorporation”) and the amended and restated bylaws (“Bylaws”) of Hampton as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time will be amended to read in substantially the forms attached as Exhibit C and D, respectively, and as so amended, will be the certificate of incorporation and bylaws of the Surviving Corporation at the Effective Time until thereafter amended further in compliance with the DGCL.

2.4 Directors. At the Effective Time, the board of directors of the Surviving Corporation will consist of individuals identified or designated by Parent or Hampton who will hold office until their respective successors are duly elected or appointed and qualified, or their earlier death, resignation or removal, in accordance with the Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws of the Surviving Corporation and the DGCL.

2.5 Officers. At the Effective Time, the officers of Hampton will be the initial officers of the Surviving Corporation which are the individuals identified or designated pursuant to Schedule 2.5, and will hold office until their respective successors are duly appointed and qualified, or their earlier death, resignation or removal, in accordance with the Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws of the Surviving Corporation and the DGCL.

III. CONVERSION OF SHARES AND OTHER MATTERS

3.1 Conversion of Capital Stock. At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of Hampton, Apple or the holders of the following securities:

(a) The Apple Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than any shares of Apple Common Stock to be cancelled pursuant to Section 3.1(b)) will be converted into and become the right to receive a number of shares of Hampton Class A Common Stock equal to one-third of the number of shares of Hampton Common Stock to be issued in the Spin-Off (“Merger Consideration”). Each share of Apple Common Stock will be converted into and become the right to receive a number of shares of Hampton Class A Common Stock equal to the Merger Consideration divided by the number of shares of Apple Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than any shares of Apple Common Stock to be cancelled pursuant to Section 3.1(b)). For the avoidance of doubt, the Apple Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than any shares of Apple Common Stock to be cancelled pursuant to Section 3.1(b)) will be converted into and become the right to receive a number of shares of Hampton Class A Common Stock which, when divided by the total number of shares of

Hampton Common Stock to be issued in the Spin-Off and the Merger, equals 25.0% of the issued and outstanding shares of the common stock of the Surviving Corporation. Following the Effective Time, all shares of Apple Common Stock will no longer be outstanding and will automatically be cancelled and retired and cease to exist.

(b) Each share of Apple Common Stock owned by Apple, Parent or any direct or indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Apple or Parent (other than, in any such case, trust accounts, managed accounts, custodial accounts and the like that are beneficially owned by third parties) immediately prior to the Effective Time will be cancelled without any conversion thereof and no payment will be made with respect thereto.

(c) Each share of Hampton Class A Common Stock and Hampton Class B Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time will remain issued and outstanding as a share of Hampton Class A Common Stock and Hampton Class B Common Stock, respectively, following the Effective Time.

(d) Prior to the Effective Time, Apple and the Apple Board of Directors will take (or will cause to be taken) all actions necessary (including providing such notices, adopting such amendments to Apple Option Plans and taking such other actions as are reasonably requested by Hampton) such that:

(i) All Apple Options that are not otherwise exercisable will become exercisable and if, elected by the holder, will be exercised effective as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, with the effect that the Apple Common Stock into which they are converted will be deemed for all purposes to be issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time.

(ii) Without limiting the generality or effect of Section 3.1(d)(i), the holders of all Apple Options will be notified that Apple Options may be exercised at any time during the period that commences on the date of this Agreement and ends on the day before the Effective Time (the “Exercise Period”), provided that (A) any such exercise, to the extent that it relates to an Apple Option that would become exercisable only at the Effective Time, will be contingent until, and will become effective only upon, the occurrence of the Effective Time and (B) no Apple Option may be exercised after the Exercise Period.

(iii) Apple Options that are not exercised before the end of the Exercise Period terminate at the Effective Time.

(iv) All Apple Option Plans will terminate at the Effective Time.

3.2 Exchange of Certificates. (a) Prior to the Closing, Parent’s transfer agent will be designated by Parent to act as the exchange agent (the “Exchange Agent”) for the purpose of exchanging certificates representing Apple Common Stock for certificates representing that number of shares of Hampton Class A Common Stock that are to be issued pursuant to Section 3.1(a).

(b) As soon as practicable, but in any event no later than five Business Days following the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation will deposit with the Exchange Agent, as nominee for the benefit of the Apple Shareholders, certificates representing the shares of Hampton Class A Common Stock to be issued pursuant to Section 3.1(a) (such shares of Hampton Class A Common Stock, together with cash for the payment of any dividends or distributions with respect thereto and the Fractional Share Amount, being hereinafter referred to as the “Exchange Fund”).

(c) After the Effective Time, the Exchange Agent will distribute to each Apple Shareholder (other than holders of shares of Apple Common Stock that are cancelled pursuant to Section 3.1(b)) (i) certificates representing the whole number of shares of Hampton Class A Common Stock into which such Person’s shares of Apple Common Stock have been converted in accordance with Section 3.1(a), (ii) the amount of dividends or other distributions, if any, with a record date on or after the Effective Time which theretofore became payable with respect to such shares of Hampton Class A Common Stock, and (iii) the portion of the Fractional Share Amount which such Apple Shareholder has the right to receive pursuant to the provisions of Section 3.2(d). In no event will any Apple Shareholder be entitled to receive interest on any funds to be received pursuant to the Merger. From and after the Effective Time, the interest of each Apple Shareholder immediately prior to the Merger will be limited to the right to receive (A) the whole number of shares of Hampton Class A Common Stock into which the shares of Apple Common Stock held by such Person have

been converted, (B) dividends or other distributions, if any, and (C) a portion of the Fractional Share Amount, in each case, as described above.

(d) Each Apple Shareholder who otherwise would have been entitled to a fraction of a share of Hampton Class A Common Stock upon conversion of such Person’s shares of Apple Common Stock pursuant to Section 3.1(a) (after aggregating all of such Person’s shares of Apple Common Stock immediately prior to the Effective Time) will receive from the Exchange Agent a cash payment in lieu of such fractional share of Hampton Class A Common Stock. Promptly after the Effective Time, the Exchange Agent will aggregate all such fractional shares into whole shares of Hampton Class A Common Stock, sell the whole shares of Hampton Class A Common Stock in the open market on behalf of holders of record or beneficial owners who otherwise would be entitled to receive fractional shares of Hampton Class A Common Stock and distribute to each such holder or for the benefit for each such beneficial owner such holders or owner’s ratable share of the total proceeds (net of total selling and conversion expenses) of such sale (such aggregate amount, the “Fractional Share Amount”); provided, however, that the Exchange Agent will have sole discretion to determine when, how, though which broker-dealer and at what price to execute the sales; provided, further, that neither the Exchange Agent nor any broker-dealer used by the Exchange Agent will be an affiliate of Parent or Hampton.

(e) All shares of Hampton Class A Common Stock issued upon conversion of shares of Apple Common Stock in accordance with the terms hereof will be deemed to have been issued at the Effective Time in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to such shares of Apple Common Stock.

(f) If any certificate representing shares of Hampton Class A Common Stock is to be issued in a name other than the name of the Apple Shareholder entitled to such shares of Hampton Class A Common Stock, it will be a condition to the issuance thereof that appropriate transfer documentation, reasonably acceptable to the Exchange Agent, be presented to the Exchange Agent and that the Person requesting such issuance pay to the Exchange Agent in advance any transfer or other Taxes required by reason of such issuance or for any other reason, or establish to the satisfaction of the Exchange Agent that such Tax has been paid or is not payable.

(g) The Surviving Corporation will be entitled to deduct and withhold from the shares of Hampton Class A Common Stock, any dividends or distributions thereon or otherwise payable hereunder to any Apple Shareholder, and any portion of the Fractional Share Amount, such amounts as it is required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under any provisions of income tax Law. To the extent that the Surviving Corporation so withholds those amounts, such withheld amounts will be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Apple Shareholder in respect of the shares for which such deduction and withholding was made by the Surviving Corporation.

(h) Any portion of the Exchange Fund that remains unclaimed by Apple Shareholders one year after the Effective Time will be delivered to the Surviving Corporation together with any interest or other income accrued through such time as a result of the investments described in Section 3.2(j), and any such Apple Shareholders who have not theretofore complied with this Section 3.2 will thereafter look only to the Surviving Corporation for payment of the shares of Hampton Class A Common Stock, any portion of the Fractional Share Amount and any unpaid dividends or distributions thereon deliverable in respect of each share of Apple Common Stock, without any interest thereon. Any such portion of the Exchange Fund remaining unclaimed by Apple Shareholders that would otherwise escheat to or become property of any Governmental Entity will, to the extent permitted by applicable Laws, become the property of the Surviving Corporation free and clear of any claims or interest of any Person previously entitled thereto.

(i) None of the Surviving Corporation, Parent, Parent’s transfer agent, the Exchange Agent or any other Person will be liable to any Apple Shareholder for any shares of Hampton Class A Common Stock, any dividend or other distribution with respect thereto or any portion of the Fractional Share Amount delivered in good faith to a Governmental Entity pursuant to applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar applicable Laws.

(j) The Exchange Agent will invest any cash included in the Exchange Fund as directed by the Surviving Corporation, on a daily basis. Any interest and other income resulting from such investments will be paid to the Surviving Corporation promptly upon request by the Surviving Corporation and as set forth in Section 3.2(h).

The Apple SEC Reports (i) were prepared in all material respects in accordance with the requirements of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, as the case may be, and (ii) did not at the time they were filed and will not, when filed after the date of this Agreement, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements made therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, except to the extent corrected by a subsequent Apple SEC Report filed with the SEC prior to the date of this Agreement.

5.15 Taxes, Tax Returns, Tax Treatment

(a) Apple and each of its subsidiaries has duly filed all Tax Returns required to be filed by it on or prior to the date of this Agreement (all such returns being accurate and complete in all material respects) and has duly paid or made provision for the payment of all Taxes that have been incurred or are due or claimed to be due from it by federal, state, foreign or local Tax Authorities other than (i) Taxes that (a) are not yet delinquent or (b) are being contested in good faith, have not been finally determined and have been adequately reserved against or (ii) Tax Returns or Taxes as to which the failure to file, pay or make provision for would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have an Apple Material Adverse Effect. The period (including any extensions) within which the IRS may assess federal income Taxes against Apple and its subsidiaries has closed with respect to all taxable years through and including the fiscal year ended December 31, 1998 and any liability with respect thereto has been satisfied. There are no disputes pending, or claims asserted, for Taxes or assessments upon Apple or any of its subsidiaries for which Apple does not have adequate reserves that would, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have an Apple Material Adverse Effect. Neither Apple nor any of its subsidiaries is a party to or is bound by any Tax sharing, allocation or indemnification agreement or arrangement (other than such an agreement or arrangement exclusively between or among Apple and its subsidiaries or as described in the Ancillary Agreements). Within the past two years, neither Apple nor any of its subsidiaries has been a “distributing corporation” or a “controlled corporation” in a distribution intended to qualify under Section 355(a) of the Code. No disallowance of a deduction under Sections 162(m) or 280G of the Code for employee remuneration of any amount paid or payable by Apple or any of its subsidiaries under any contract, plan, program or arrangement or understanding would, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have an Apple Material Adverse Effect.

(b) None of Apple or any of its subsidiaries has taken or failed to take any action, or has Knowledge of any facts or circumstances, that would prevent the Merger from constituting a tax-free reorganization described in Section 368(a) and related provisions of the Code.

(c) To the Knowledge of Apple, as of the date of this Agreement, none of Apple or any of its subsidiaries or controlled Affiliates is aware of any fact that would reasonably be expected to cause the tax treatment of the

Spin Off or the Merger to fail to qualify for tax-free treatment under Sections 355 and 368 and related provisions of the Code.

In connection with the foregoing, each of Parent, Hampton and Apple will cooperate in all respects with each other and use its respective commercially reasonable efforts to contest and resist any such action or proceeding and to have vacated, lifted, reversed or overturned, any decree, judgment, injunction or other order, whether temporary, preliminary or permanent, that is in effect and that prohibits, prevents or restricts consummation of the Transactions, including vigorously defending in litigation on the merits any claim asserted in any court by any party through a final and nonappealable judgment.

6.4 Efforts to Close. Except as set forth in Section 6.3(a), each of Parent, Huckleberry and Hampton and its Subsidiaries on the one hand, and Apple and its Subsidiaries on the other, will use its reasonable best efforts to cause all of the conditions, as specified in Article VII, to the obligations of the other party to consummate the Transactions to be met as soon as practicable after the date of this Agreement.

6.6 Cooperation in Tax Matters.

(a) Following the Effective Time, none of the Surviving Corporation or any of its Affiliates will take any action, cause any action to be taken, fail to take any action or fail to cause any action to be taken, which action or failure to act would prevent the Merger from constituting a tax-free reorganization under Section 368(a) and related provisions of the Code.

(b) Following the Effective Time, Parent and the Surviving Corporation will make available to each other during normal business hours, but without unreasonably disrupting their respective businesses, all personnel and records of Parent, Hampton and their respective Subsidiaries reasonably necessary in connection with: any Tax matter, including the filing of any Tax Return, amended return or claim for refund; the determination of any liability for Taxes or a right to refund or credit for Taxes; or the conduct of any audit or other proceeding in respect of Taxes.

6.7 Additional Documents. From time to time after the Effective Time, Parent and the Surviving Corporation will, and will cause their officers, attorneys, accountants and other respective representatives and Affiliates over which they exercise control to, execute and deliver, without further consideration, such documents as may be reasonably necessary or advisable in connection with the consummation of the Transactions.

6.8 Access.

(a) From the date hereof to the Effective Time, as applicable, each of Hampton and Apple will allow all designated officers, attorneys, accountants and other representatives of Parent, Hampton or Apple, as the case may be, access at reasonable times upon reasonable notice and in a manner as will not adversely impact the conduct of the business of Hampton or the business of Apple, as the case may be, to the personnel, records, files, correspondence, audits and properties, as well as to all information relating to commitments, contracts, titles and financial position, or otherwise pertaining to the business and affairs, of Apple or Hampton, as the case may be, including inspection of such properties; provided, however, in no event will Apple be permitted to engage in environmental testing or investigation at any such property.

(b) No investigation pursuant to this Section 6.8 will affect any representation or warranty given by any party hereunder, and, notwithstanding the provision of information or investigation by any party, no party will be deemed to make any representation or warranty except as expressly set forth in this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no party will be required to provide any information which it reasonably believes it may not provide to the other party by reason of applicable Law, which such party reasonably believes constitutes information protected by attorney/client privilege or the attorney work product doctrine or which it is required to keep confidential by reason of Contracts with third parties. The parties hereto will make reasonable and appropriate substitute disclosure arrangements under circumstances in which the restrictions of the preceding sentence apply. Each of Parent, Apple and Hampton agrees that it will not, and will cause its respective representatives not to, use any information obtained pursuant to this Section 6.8 for any purpose unrelated to the consummation of the Transactions. All information provided by a party to the other party hereunder will be subject to the confidentiality provisions of Section 6.5.

(b) No amendment or supplement to the Proxy Statement or the Form S-4 will be made without the consent of the parties hereto (which consent will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). The parties hereto will advise each other, promptly after any of them receives notice thereof, of the time which the Form S-4 has become effective or any supplement or amendment has been filed, the issuance of any stop order, the suspension of the qualification of the Hampton Class A Common Stock issuable in connection with the Merger for offering or sale in any jurisdiction, or any request by the SEC for amendment of the Proxy Statement or the Form S-4 or comments thereon and responses thereon or requests by the SEC for additional information.

(c) Apple will provide Parent and Hampton with the information concerning itself and its Affiliates, including financial statements and other financial information, in the form required to be included in the Form S-4, the Proxy Statement and the Additional Filings (including by reason of any SEC comments thereto or subsequent requests thereon). If at any time prior to the Effective Time any information relating to Apple or any of its respective Affiliates, officers or directors, should be discovered by Apple which should be set forth in an amendment or supplement to the Form S-4, the Proxy Statement or the Additional Filings so that any of such documents would not include any misstatement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, Apple will promptly notify Parent and Hampton and, to the extent required by applicable Laws, an appropriate amendment or supplement describing such information will be promptly filed with the SEC and disseminated to the Apple Shareholders.

6.12 No Solicitation.

(a) Apple will immediately cease, terminate and discontinue any discussions or negotiations with any Person conducted before the date of this Agreement with respect to any Apple Competing Transaction, and will promptly, following the execution of this Agreement, request the return or destruction (as provided in the applicable agreement) of all confidential information provided by or on behalf of Apple to all Persons who have had such discussions or negotiations or who have entered into confidentiality agreements with Apple pertaining to an Apple Competing Transaction.

(b) Prior to the Effective Time, Apple will not, and will cause its Affiliates and representatives not to, directly or indirectly solicit, initiate or encourage any inquiries or proposals from, discuss or negotiate with, or provide any non-public information to, any Person (other than Parent, Hampton and their respective representatives) relating to any merger, consolidation, share exchange, business combination or other transaction or

series of transactions involving Apple that is conditioned on the termination of this Agreement or could reasonably be expected to preclude or materially delay the completion of the Merger (an “Apple Competing Transaction”).

(c) Apple will promptly (and in any event within 24 hours) notify Parent of its or any of its officers’, directors’ or representatives’ receipt of any inquiry or proposal relating to, an Apple Competing Transaction, including the identity of the Person submitting such inquiry or proposal and the terms thereof.

(d) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, Apple or its board of directors will be permitted to engage in any discussions or negotiations with, or provide any information to, any Person in response to an unsolicited bona fide written offer regarding an Apple Competing Transaction by any such Person (which has not been withdrawn), if and only to the extent that, (i) the Apple Shareholder Approval has not been given, (ii) Apple has received an unsolicited bona fide written offer regarding an Apple Competing Transaction from a third party (which has not been withdrawn) and its board of directors has determined in good faith that there is a reasonable likelihood that such Apple Competing Transaction would constitute a Apple Superior Proposal, (iii) its board of directors, after consultation with its outside counsel, determines in good faith that such action is required by its fiduciary duties, (iv) prior to providing any information or data to any Person in connection with an Apple Competing Transaction by any such Person, it receives from such Person an executed confidentiality agreement containing terms Apple determines to be substantially the same as the Confidentiality Agreement (but permitting the disclosures to Parent described in this Section 6.12(d) to be made to Parent), and (iv) prior to providing any information or data to any Person or entering into discussions or negotiations with any Person, it complies with Section 6.12(c). Apple will use its commercially reasonable efforts to keep Parent informed promptly of the status and terms of any such proposal or offer and the status and terms of any such discussions or negotiations and will promptly provide Parent with any such written proposal or offer. Apple will promptly inform its directors, officers, key employees, agents and representatives of the obligations undertaken by Apple in this Section 6.12. Nothing in this Section 6.12(d), (x) permits Apple to terminate this Agreement (except as specifically provided in Article VIII) or (y) affects any other obligation of Apple or Parent under this Agreement.

(e) For purposes of this Agreement, “Apple Superior Proposal” means a bona fide written offer regarding an Apple Competing Transaction made by a Person other than a party hereto or its controlled Affiliates which is on terms which the board of directors of Apple concludes, after consultation with its financial advisors and following receipt of the advice of its outside counsel, would, if consummated, result in a transaction that is more favorable to the Apple Shareholders than the Transactions.

(f) No provision of this Agreement will be deemed to prohibit (i) Apple from publicly disclosing any information which its board of directors determines, after consultation with outside counsel, is required to be disclosed by Law, whether pursuant to the federal securities laws, state law fiduciary requirements or otherwise, or (ii) the Apple board of directors from changing its recommendation in respect of the Merger if it determines, after consultation with outside counsel, that such action is required by its fiduciary duties; provided, however, that nothing in the preceding clause (ii) will relieve Apple of its obligations with respect to the Apple Shareholders Meeting under Sections 6.10 or 8.3.

6.13 Notification of Certain Matters. Each of Hampton and Apple will give prompt written notice to the other of (a) any notice or other communication from any Person alleging that the consent of such Person is or may be required in connection with the Transactions, (b) any Action commenced or threatened in writing against, relating to or involving or otherwise affecting it or any of its Subsidiaries that relates to the consummation of the Transactions, and (c) any change that would reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Hampton Material Adverse Effect or an Apple Material Adverse Effect, as the case may be. Hampton will give Apple prompt written notice of (i) any material change in method of accounting not required by a Governmental Entity or by changes in GAAP as concurred in by Hampton’s independent public accountants, and (ii) any material Tax election or settlement or compromise of any material income Tax liability with respect to matters that will be a liability of the Surviving Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries following the Merger.

6.14 Listing. Hampton and Parent will use their commercially reasonable efforts to cause the shares of Hampton Class A Common Stock to be issued in connection with the Merger to be listed on the NYSE or the NASDAQ as of the Effective Time, subject to official notice of issuance.

6.15 Covenant Not to Compete. For a period of four years after the Closing Date, neither Parent nor any of its controlled Affiliates will, without the prior written consent of the Surviving Corporation, directly or indirectly, engage in the Restricted Business anywhere in the Territory; provided, however, that the foregoing will not restrict Parent or any of its controlled Affiliates from:

(i) becoming an owner of less than 5% of the outstanding stock of any publicly traded corporation that engages in the Restricted Business;

(ii) acquiring and operating a Person engaged in the Restricted Business provided that, at the time of such acquisition the annual revenue attributable to such Restricted Business does not exceed 20% of the consolidated revenue of the acquired entity for its last completed fiscal year (such acquired entity, an “Exempt Restricted Person”);

(iii) engaging in the Restricted Business after the four anniversary of the Closing Date; and

(iv) continuing the ownership and operation of The Kitchen Collection, Inc. in a manner consistent with past practice.

The parties agree that the covenants included in this Section 6.15 are, taken as a whole, reasonable in their geographic and temporal coverage and no party will raise any issue of geographic or temporal reasonableness in any proceeding to enforce such covenants. Parent acknowledges and agrees that in the event of a breach by Parent or any of its controlled Affiliates of the provisions of this Section 6.15, monetary damages will not constitute a sufficient remedy. Consequently, in the event of any such breach, the Surviving Corporation may, in addition to any other rights and remedies existing in its favor, apply to any court of law or equity of competent jurisdiction for specific performance and/or injunctive relief or other relief in order to enforce or prevent any violation of the provisions hereof.

6.16 Fees and Expenses. Except for filing fees paid under Antitrust Laws, fees or Expenses incurred in connection with the filing, printing and mailing of the Form S-4, Proxy Statement or any other document filed with the SEC in connection with the Transactions, and which will be borne equally by Apple and Hampton, (a) Apple will bear all of the Expenses of Apple and its Affiliates (for the avoidance of doubt, excluding for this purpose Hampton and its subsidiaries), including the broker’s or finder’s fees referred to in Section 5.14, (b) Parent will bear all of the Expenses of Parent and its Affiliates (other than Hampton and its subsidiaries), including the broker’s or finder’s fees referred to in Section 4.14 and (c) Hampton will bear all of the Expenses of Hampton and its Affiliates (other than Parent and its subsidiaries other than Hampton and its subsidiaries).

(a) In the event of any threatened or actual Action, whether civil or administrative, including any such Action in which any present or former director or officer of Apple or any of its subsidiaries (together, the “Indemnified Parties”) is, or is threatened to be, made a party based in whole or in part on, or arising in whole or in part out of, or pertaining in whole or in part to, any action or failure to take action by any such Person in such capacity taken prior to the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation (the “Indemnifying Party”) will, from and after the Effective Time, indemnify, defend and hold harmless, as and to the fullest extent permitted or required by applicable Law in effect on the date of this Agreement, against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities, costs, legal and other expenses (including reimbursement for legal and other fees and expenses incurred in advance of the final disposition of any claim, suit, proceeding or investigation to each Indemnified Party), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by such Indemnified Party in connection with such claim Action, subject to the Surviving Corporation’s receipt of an undertaking

by such Indemnified Party to repay such legal and other fees and expenses paid in advance if it is ultimately determined that such Indemnified Party is not entitled to be indemnified under applicable Law; provided, however, that the Surviving Corporation will not be liable for any settlement effected without the Surviving Corporation’s prior written consent (which will not be unreasonably delayed or withheld) and will not be obligated to pay the fees and expenses of more than one counsel (selected by a plurality of the applicable Indemnified Parties) for all Indemnified Parties in any jurisdiction with respect to any single such Action, except to the extent that two or more of such Indemnified Parties have conflicting interests in the outcome of such claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation.

(b) The Surviving Corporation will (i) maintain in effect for a period of six years after the Effective Time, if available, the current policies of directors’ and officers’ liability insurance maintained by Apple (provided that the Surviving Corporation may substitute therefore policies of at least the same coverage and amounts containing terms and conditions which are not less advantageous to the directors and officers of Apple) or (ii) obtain as of the Effective Time “tail” insurance policies with a claims period of six years from the Effective Time with at least the same coverage and amounts and containing terms and conditions which are no less advantageous to the directors and officers of Apple, in each case, with respect to claims arising out of or relating to events which occurred before or at the Effective Time; provided, however, that in no event will the Surviving Corporation be required to expend an annual premium for such coverage in excess of 250% of the last annual premium paid by Apple for such insurance prior to the date of this Agreement (the “Maximum Premium”). If such insurance coverage cannot be obtained at all, or can only be obtained at an annual premium in excess of the Maximum Premium, the Surviving Corporation will obtain that amount of directors’ and officers’ insurance (or “tail” coverage) obtainable for an annual premium equal to the Maximum Premium.

(c) The provisions of this Section 6.17 will survive the Closing and are intended to be for the benefit of, and will be enforceable by, each Indemnified Party and its successors and representatives after the Effective Time and their rights under this Section 6.17 are in addition to, and will not be deemed to be exclusive of, any other rights to which an Indemnified Party is entitled, whether pursuant to Law, Contract or otherwise.

(d) The obligations under this Section 6.17 may not be terminated or modified by the Surviving Corporation in a manner as to adversely affect any Indemnified Party to whom this Section 6.17 applies without the consent of the affected Indemnified Party. In the event that the Surviving Corporation or any of their respective successors or assigns (i) consolidates with or merges into any other Persons or (ii) transfers 50% or more of its properties or assets to any Person, then and in each case, proper provision will be made so that the applicable successors, assigns or transferees assume the obligations set forth in this Section 6.17.

6.18 Intellectual Property Transfers. Apple will take such action as may be necessary or proper, including filing all required applications and executing any necessary transfer documentation, at its sole cost and expense, to cause all Apple Intellectual Property to be held free and clear of all Encumbrances other than Encumbrances imposed in connection with the credit agreements identified in Schedule 5.3, in the name of Apple or its Subsidiaries on the Closing Date.

6.19 Restrictions on Solicitation and Hiring. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or the Confidentiality Agreement, and except as Parent and the Surviving Corporation may otherwise agree in writing, Parent will not (and will cause its controlled Affiliates not to), for a period of four years from the date of this Agreement, hire, or enter into any form of consulting arrangement or agreement with, any Person who is an officer or manager of the Surviving Corporation as of the Effective Time and who is in a category identified on Schedule 6.19 (the “officers or managers”), and Parent will not and will cause its controlled Affiliates not to, solicit (other than by means of general advertisement not directed to Persons who are officers or managers of the Surviving Corporation as of the Effective Time) or otherwise induce any such Persons who are executive officers of the Surviving Corporation as of the Effective Time, to enter into any type of employment or consulting arrangement or agreement that would be prohibited by this Section 6.19. Parent acknowledges that (i) this provision is reasonable, (ii) Apple and Hampton would not enter into this Agreement without Parent agreeing to and complying with this Section 6.19, (iii) the Surviving Corporation would suffer irreparable harm upon Parent’s violation of this provision and (iv) among other remedies, the Surviving Corporation will be entitled to obtain a temporary restraining order and/or injunction upon Parent’s breach of this provision.

(e) by either Parent or Apple if the Merger shall not have occurred prior to March 31, 2007, unless the failure of the Merger to have occurred by such date is due to the failure of the party seeking to terminate this Agreement to perform or observe in all material respects the covenants and agreements of such party set forth herein;

(g) by Parent if the board of directors of Apple shall have modified or withdrawn the Apple Board Recommendation or failed to confirm the Apple Board Recommendation within four Business Days after Parent’s request to do so (it being understood, however, that for all purposes of this Agreement, and without limitation, the fact that Apple, in compliance with this Agreement, has supplied any Person with information regarding Apple or has entered into discussions or negotiations with such Person as permitted by this Agreement, or the disclosure of such facts, shall not be deemed a withdrawal or modification of the Apple Board Recommendation); or

(h) by Apple, if the board of directors of Apple authorizes Apple, subject to complying with the terms of this Agreement, to enter into a written agreement with respect to an Apple Superior Proposal; provided, however, that (i) Apple shall have complied with the provisions of Section 6.12, (ii) Apple shall have given Parent and Hampton at least four Business Days prior written notice of its intention to terminate this Agreement, attaching a description of all material terms and conditions of such Apple Superior Proposal, (iii) during such four Business Day period, Apple engages in good faith negotiations with Parent and Hampton with respect to such changes as Parent and Hampton may propose to the terms of the Merger and this Agreement, (iv) Parent and Hampton do not make prior to such termination of this Agreement, a definitive, binding offer which the Board of Directors of Apple determines in good faith, after consultation with its legal and financial advisors, is at least as favorable to Apple Shareholders as such Apple Superior Proposal and (v) prior to such termination pursuant to this Section 8.1(h), Apple pays to Parent in immediately available funds, the fee required to be paid pursuant to Section 8.3.

8.2 Effect of Termination. In the event of termination of this Agreement by either Parent or Apple pursuant to Section 8.1, this Agreement will forthwith become void and there will be no liability under this Agreement on the part of Parent, Hampton or Apple, except (i) to the extent that such termination results from the willful and material breach by a party of any of its representations, warranties or covenants in this Agreement and (ii) as provided in Section 8.3; provided, however, that the provisions of Sections 6.5, 6.16, 8.3, 9.5 and this Section 8.2 will each remain in full force and effect and will survive any termination of this Agreement.

8.3 Fees and Expenses.

(a) Notwithstanding Section 6.16, if this Agreement is terminated by (i) Parent pursuant to Section 8.1(e) or Section 8.1(f) and prior to the time of such termination an Apple Competing Transaction has been communicated to the Apple board of directors and not withdrawn, and within nine months Apple enters into an agreement to complete or completes Apple Competing Transaction, (ii) Parent pursuant to Section 8.1(g), or (iii) Apple pursuant to 8.1(h), then Apple will pay to Parent a termination fee equal to $4.0 million plus up to $2.0 million of reasonable documented, third party, out-of-pocket Expenses (the “Termination Fee”).

(b) Each of the parties acknowledges that the agreements contained in this Section 8.3 are an integral part of the Transactions and that, without these agreements, the other party would not enter into this Agreement or the Ancillary Agreements.

IX. MISCELLANEOUS

9.2 Amendment and Modification. Subject to applicable Law, this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements may be amended, modified, or supplemented only by the written agreement of the parties hereto or thereto in any and all respects before the Effective Time; provided, however, that after the Apple Shareholder Approval is obtained there will not be any amendment that by Law requires further approval by the Apple Shareholders without further approval of such shareholders.

The failure of any Person to enforce at any time any of the provisions of such agreements will in no way be construed to be a waiver of any such provision, nor in any way to affect the validity of such agreements or any part thereof or the right of any Person thereafter to enforce each and every such provision.

Unless specifically permitted by an Ancillary Agreement, none of Parent, Hampton or Apple may assign this Agreement or any of their rights or liabilities thereunder without the prior written consent of the other parties hereto, and any attempt to make any such assignment without such consent will be null and void. Any such assignment will not relieve the party making the assignment from any liability under such agreements.

9.7 Severability. The illegality or partial illegality of any or all of this Agreement or any of the Ancillary Agreements, or any provision thereof, will not affect the validity of the remainder of such agreements, or any provision thereof, and the illegality or partial illegality of any such agreements will not affect the validity of any such agreements in any jurisdiction in which such determination of illegality or partial illegality has not been made, except in either case to the extent such illegality or partial illegality causes such agreements to no longer contain all of the material provisions reasonably expected by the parties to be contained therein.

9.8 Governing Law. This Agreement will be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal Laws of the State of Delaware applicable to Contracts made and wholly performed within such state, without regard to any applicable conflict of laws principles; provided, however, that the Merger will also be governed by the applicable provisions of the FBCA to the extent required thereby.

9.9 Submission to Jurisdiction; Waivers. Each of Apple, Parent and Hampton irrevocably agrees that any Action with respect to this Agreement, the Transactions, any provision hereof, the breach, performance, validity or invalidity hereof or for recognition and enforcement of any judgment in respect hereof brought by another party hereto or its successors or permitted assigns may be brought and determined in any federal or state court located in the State of Delaware, and each of Apple, Parent and Hampton hereby irrevocably submits with regard to any such Action or proceeding for itself and in respect to its property, generally and unconditionally, to the exclusive jurisdiction of the aforesaid courts. Each of Apple, Parent and Hampton hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert, by way of motion, as a defense, counterclaim or otherwise, in any Action with respect to this Agreement, the Transactions, any provision hereof or the breach, performance, enforcement, validity or invalidity hereof, (a) any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of the above-named courts for any reason other than the failure to lawfully serve process, (b) 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 (c) to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws, that (i) Action in any such court is brought in an inconvenient forum, (ii) the venue of such Action is improper and (iii) this Agreement, or the subject matter hereof, may not be enforced in or by such courts.

9.10 Specific Performance. The parties hereby acknowledge and agree that the failure of any party to perform its agreements and covenants hereunder, including its failure to take all actions as are necessary on its part

to the consummation of the Transactions, will cause irreparable injury to the other parties for which damages, even if available, will not be an adequate remedy. Accordingly, each party hereby consents to the issuance of injunctive relief by any court of competent jurisdiction to compel performance of such party’s obligations and to the granting by any court of the remedy of specific performance of its obligations hereunder.

9.11 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, all of which will be considered one and the same agreement and will become effective when counterparts have been signed by each of the parties and delivered to the other parties, it being understood that each party need not sign the same counterpart.

9.12 Entire Agreement. This Agreement (including the documents and the instruments referred to in this Agreement) and the Ancillary Agreements (other than the Transition Services Agreement), together with the Confidentiality Agreement, constitute the entire agreement and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, among the parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement, other than the Confidentiality Agreement.

9.13 Parent Joinder. The parties hereby expressly acknowledge and agree that Parent has been made a party to this Agreement at Apple’s request in order to provide additional assurance that the Merger will be completed and for the other purposes expressly provided herein and therein. Following the Effective Time, none of Parent nor any of its Affiliates or their respective directors, officers, employees or other representatives will have any duties, obligations or liabilities to the Surviving Corporation or any of its Affiliates or their respective directors, officers, employees or representatives with respect to the Transactions contemplated by this Agreement, except and only to the extent of Parent’s obligations under this Agreement and, if any, under the Ancillary Agreements.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants contained in this Agreement, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto, intending to be legally bound, agree as follows:

1. Grant of License

1.1 Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, Hampton grants to KCI and KCI hereby accepts from Hampton, a non-exclusive, non-transferable (except as expressly permitted herein) right and license, with no right to sub-license, to use the Licensed Marks solely in connection with the marketing and sale of the Licensed Products in the Distribution Channels in the Territory, as defined in the Term Sheet, for the Initial Term (as defined herein) and any renewal thereof (collectively the “Term”).

1.2 KCI hereby acknowledges Hampton’s ownership of the Licensed Marks and agrees that it will not, during or after the Term of this Agreement (i) contest the validity of the Licensed Marks, this Agreement or Hampton’s ownership or use of the Licensed Marks, or (ii) apply to register or aid a third party in registering the Licensed Marks or confusingly similar marks in the United States or in any other country or jurisdiction.

The Royalty for the remainder of calendar year 2006 shall be calculated on a pro rata basis and shall be due on February 1, 2007. The Royalty for each calendar year after 2006 shall be due on February 1st of

each such calendar year. Payment of the Royalty shall be made by check payable to Hampton in United States Dollars at its address as follows:

5.2 As to the payment of Royalty, time is of the essence and KCI shall make each of said payments on time. Any payment delayed for any reason whatsoever shall bear interest from the date when payment is due, until the date when paid in full at the annual rate of one percentage point (1%) over the prime rate in effect on the date said payment is due.

6. Reports and Records

6.1 KCI shall keep true and accurate records adequate to establish the amount of Licensed Products sold under this Agreement and to permit, unless otherwise mutually agreed in writing, an independent certified public accountant selected by Hampton to inspect such records once annually during regular business hours upon reasonable notice at Hampton’s expense. On the 25^th day following the end of each calendar quarter during the Term and any Sell-Off Period, KCI shall provide to Hampton monthly reports of Licensed Products sold by KCI.

6.2 All taxes, assessments and fees of any nature levied by any governmental entity on the sale of Licensed Products by KCI shall be paid by KCI for its account.

7. Quality Standards and Control

7.1 KCI agrees that the Licensed Products shall be of high quality and of such style, appearance, and distinctiveness as will preserve and protect the prestige of the Licensed Marks and the goodwill represented and symbolized thereby; that such Licensed Products will be manufactured, packaged, marketed, advertised, promoted, distributed and sold in accordance with applicable laws and the directions which may be communicated by Hampton from time to time under this Agreement; and that KCI shall not deviate from the quality, standards and manufacturing specifications of the Licensed Products unless it obtains prior written consent from Hampton. As stated above, the LPAG shall govern the approval and regulation of the quality of the Licensed Products under this Agreement. Further, KCI agrees to market, advertise and promote the Licensed Products using such high standards that will preserve and protect the prestige of the Licensed Marks.

7.2 Hampton shall have the right to approve, in its sole discretion, any Licensed Products which KCI proposes to use or be associated with any of the Licensed Marks. To enable Hampton to consider such approval, KCI shall submit to Hampton, at no cost to Hampton, all information, articles and documents reasonably necessary to consider such approval including, without limitation, engineering drawings, prototypes, samples, raw materials, testing procedures, marketing concepts, designs, graphics, manufacturing/quality control records and other such information as reasonably requested by Hampton (collectively, the “Product Information”). Hampton shall review such Product Information and respond to KCI within twenty (20) business days of receipt of the last of the applicable Product Information from KCI. If Hampton should disapprove of any proposed Licensed Product, it shall promptly provide specific reasons for such disapproval in writing to KCI. Hampton’s failure to respond to KCI within twenty (20) business days of receipt of the last of the applicable Product Information from KCI shall constitute non-approval; provided, however, that if KCI does not receive a response to its request for approval of submitted materials within twenty (20) business days of Hampton’s receipt of the last of the applicable Product Information,

KCI must notify Hampton in writing that it has not had a response from Hampton. Hampton shall then have an additional ten (10) business days from the date of such notice to respond to the submitted Product Information. If Hampton fails to respond after notice and within such ten (10) additional business days, the materials shall be deemed approved. Once Hampton has approved the proposed Licensed Product, KCI shall not materially depart therefrom without Hampton’s prior written consent, which shall not unreasonably be withheld.

7.3 Unless otherwise agreed to by Hampton in writing, KCI shall submit the foregoing Product Information to Hampton for its prior written approval prior to any use of the Licensed Marks or initiation of Licensed Product manufacture or assembly. Once Hampton’s approval is obtained as provided in Section 7.2 above, such approval shall be deemed continuous with respect to the Licensed Product(s) so approved unless there has been a material change or alteration in the Licensed Products or materials submitted to Hampton.

7.4 Upon ten (10) business days’ prior written notice to KCI, and at Hampton’s expense and election, Hampton shall have the right to inspect the Licensed Products at KCI’s business and/or at each and every point of manufacture no more than twice a year.

8. Advertising and Promotion

8.1 All advertisements, marketing and promotional materials, labels and all other written materials pertaining to the Licensed Products shall bear the Licensed Marks in prominence as prescribed by Hampton. Furthermore, the Licensed Marks shall be used by KCI only on and in connection with those Licensed Products that have been approved by Hampton in accordance with Section 7.2. KCI shall cause no other products of KCI to bear the Licensed Marks except with the express prior written consent of Hampton.

8.2 Unless Hampton shall have previously consented in writing, KCI shall not use any of the Licensed Marks with any other trademark, word, symbol, logo, design, business name or trade name. KCI shall not use the names “Xxxxxxxx Beach,” “Xxxxxxx-Silex,” or “Xxxxxxxx Beach/Xxxxxxx-Silex” in connection with KCI’s corporate business, trade name or domain names.

8.3 No less than thirty (30) business days in advance of any use contemplated herein, KCI shall provide Hampton with samples of advertisements, marketing and promotional materials, labels, and any other written materials bearing the Licensed Marks (hereinafter the “Materials”) for Hampton’s approval in accordance with the procedure described in Section 7.2 above. KCI shall consult with Hampton regarding KCI’s brand strategies with respect to the Licensed Products on which the Licensed Marks will be used.

8.4 KCI agrees that it shall cause to appear on all Materials on or in connection with which the Licensed Marks are used, the following legends:

“Xxxxxxxx Beach^® is a registered trademark of Xxxxxxxx Beach/Xxxxxxx-Silex, Inc. used under license,” and/or

“Xxxxxxx-Silex^® is a registered trademark of Xxxxxxxx Beach/Xxxxxxx-Silex, Inc. used under license,”

or such other statement as may be requested, from time to time, by Hampton.

8.5 KCI shall ensure that the Materials shall be of such standard, quality, style and appearance as shall, in the sole judgment of Hampton, be adequate and suited to exploit the Licensed Marks and their goodwill to maximum advantage, protection and enhancement. In the event that Hampton shall determine that any Materials are not of an adequate standard, quality, style or appearance, Hampton shall so notify KCI in writing, which writing will describe the inadequacy with specificity and KCI shall take the necessary action to correct the inadequacy as specified by Hampton and said Materials shall not be used until Hampton, in its sole discretion, determines that said Materials are now of adequate standard, quality, style and appearance.

8.6 If Hampton determines, in its sole discretion, that the manner in which the Licensed Marks, the Materials and/or the Licensed Products are being used do not comply with Hampton’s standards, Hampton shall notify KCI thereof in writing, which writing shall set forth the non-compliance with specificity, and such shall not be used until KCI remedies the same in accordance with Hampton’s instructions and until Hampton, in its sole discretion, determines that such are in reasonable compliance with its standards.

8.7 Should Hampton notify KCI that the manner in which the Licensed Marks, the Materials and/or the Licensed Products are used by KCI are not in compliance with the requirements set forth in this Agreement, and should KCI continue to use such Licensed Marks, Materials and/or Licensed Products without adjusting the same in accordance with the requirements set forth in this Agreement, such noncompliance will be considered a material breach of this Agreement and cause for termination pursuant to Section 12.3(i).

9. Trademark Infringement

9.1 KCI shall give written notice to Hampton upon KCI becoming aware of any imitation or infringement of the Licensed Marks or of any assertion that the use of the Licensed Marks infringes the rights of a third party.

9.2 Hampton, at its sole cost and expense and in its own name, and at its sole discretion, may prosecute any action or proceeding which it deems necessary or desirable to protect the Licensed Marks including, but not limited to, actions or proceedings to prevent or deter misappropriation, counterfeiting or infringement thereof and/or to defend against a claim of infringement thereof. KCI shall fully cooperate with Hampton in such efforts arising out of the use of the Licensed Marks as permitted by this Agreement. KCI shall consent to being named a party to such action if requested by Hampton with all costs of KCI’s participation in any such action being borne by Hampton.

9.3 KCI shall not commence any actions or proceedings alleging infringement of the Licensed Marks without the prior written consent of Hampton.

9.4 Any and all damages recovered in any action or proceeding commenced by Hampton which relate to a claim of misappropriation, counterfeiting or infringement shall belong solely and exclusively to Hampton, except to such extent as may otherwise be agreed between KCI and Hampton in a separate written agreement.

10. Maintenance of Trademarks

4.2 Indemnification. (a) Subject to subsection (d) below, each party (the “Indemnitor”) will indemnify and hold the other party, its subsidiaries and each of their respective shareholders, officers, directors, employees, agents and representatives and each of the successors and assigns of any of the foregoing (each, an “Indemnitee”) harmless from and against and will promptly defend the Indemnitees from and reimburse the Indemnitees for any and all losses, damages, costs, expenses, liabilities, obligations and claims of any kind (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and other costs and expenses) (collectively, “Damages”), arising out of or related to (i) a breach by the Indemnitor of this Agreement and (ii) the gross negligence, bad faith or intentional misconduct of the Indemnitor in connection with the provision or receipt of Transition Services under this Agreement.

(b) The amount of any Damages for which indemnification is provided under this Section 4.2 will be computed net of any insurance proceeds actually received by the Indemnitee pursuant to an insurance policy with respect to such Damages.

(c) The Indemnitee must notify the Indemnitor in writing of any claim, demand, action or proceeding for which indemnification will be sought under Section 4.2(a), provided, however, that the failure to so notify shall not adversely impact the Indemnitee’s right to indemnification hereunder except to the extent that such failure to notify actually prejudices or prevents the Indemnitor’s ability to defend such claim, demand, action or proceeding. If such claim, demand, action or proceeding is a third party claim, demand, action or proceeding, the Indemnitor will have the right at its expense to assume the defense thereof using counsel reasonably acceptable to the Indemnitee. The Indemnitee will have the right (i) to participate, at its own expense, with respect to any such third party claim, demand, action or proceeding that is being defended by the Indemnitor, and (ii) to assume the defense of such third party claim, demand, action or proceeding, at the cost and expense of the Indemnitor if the Indemnitor fails or ceases to defend the same. In connection with any such third party claim, demand, action or proceeding, the parties will cooperate with each other and provide each other with access to relevant books and records in their possession. If a firm written offer is made to the Indemnitor to settle any such third party claim, demand, action or proceeding solely

in exchange for monetary sums to be paid by the Indemnitor (and such settlement contains a complete release of the Indemnitee and its Subsidiaries and their respective directors, officers and employees) and the Indemnitor proposes to accept such settlement and the Indemnitee refuses to consent to such settlement, then (i) the Indemnitor will be excused from, and the Indemnitee will be solely responsible for, all further defense of such third party claim, demand, action or proceeding, (ii) the maximum liability of the Indemnitor relating to such third party claim, demand, action or proceeding will be the amount of the proposed settlement if the amount thereafter recovered from the Indemnitee on such third party claim, demand, action or proceeding is greater than the amount of the proposed settlement, and (iii) the Indemnitee will pay all reasonable attorneys’ fees and legal costs and expenses incurred after rejection of such settlement by the Indemnitee; provided, however, that if the amount thereafter recovered by such third party from the Indemnitee is less than the amount of the proposed settlement, the Indemnitee will be reimbursed by the Indemnitor for such attorneys’ fees and legal costs and expenses up to a maximum amount equal to the difference between the amount recovered by such third party and the amount of the proposed settlement.

(d) No party will be entitled to recover any consequential, indirect or punitive damages (including lost profits or lost revenues) arising out of the matters covered by this Agreement, regardless of the form of the claim or action, including claims or actions for indemnification, tort, breach of contract, warranty, representation or covenant.

(e) The Indemnitees’ rights to indemnification as set forth in this Section 4.2 will be their exclusive remedy with respect to any Damages arising out of the matters covered by this Agreement other than to terminate this Agreement as set forth in Section 3.1(b). Each Indemnitee hereto will be entitled to indemnification for Damages sustained in accordance with the provisions of this Section 4.2 regardless of any Law or public policy that would limit or impair the right of the party to recover indemnification under the circumstances.

4.3 Relationship of Parties. Each of Hampton, Parent and their respective Subsidiaries will for all purposes be deemed to be an independent contractor with respect to the provision of Transition Services hereunder, will not be considered (nor will any of their directors, officers, employees, contractors or agents be considered) an agent, employee, commercial representative, partner, franchisee or joint venturer of any other party and will have no duties or obligations beyond those expressly provided in this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements with respect to the provision of Transition Services. No party will have any authority, absent express written permission from the other party, to enter into any agreement, assume or create any obligations or liabilities, or make representations on behalf of any other party. The provision of the Transition Services shall not alter the classification of, or the compensation and employee benefits provided to, the Parent Employees or the Hampton Employees. The Parent Employees shall be employed solely by Parent or its Subsidiaries, and the Hampton Employees shall be employed solely by Hampton or its Subsidiaries. Neither the Parent Employees nor the Hampton Employees shall be entitled to any additional compensation for the provision of the Transition Services.

4.4 Interpretation. (a) When a reference is made in this Agreement to Sections or Schedules, such reference will be to a Section of or Schedule to this Agreement unless otherwise indicated. The headings contained in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and will not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement. Whenever the words “include,” “includes” or “including” are used in this Agreement, they will be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation.” Unless the context otherwise requires, (i) “or” is disjunctive but not necessarily exclusive, (ii) words in the singular include the plural and vice versa, (iii) the use in this Agreement of a pronoun in reference to a party hereto includes the masculine, feminine or neuter, as the context may require, and (iv) terms used herein which are defined in GAAP have the meanings ascribed to them therein. All Schedules hereto will be deemed part of this Agreement and included in any reference to this Agreement. This Agreement will not be interpreted or construed to require any party to take any action, or fail to take any action, if to do so would violate any applicable Law.

(b) All parties have participated in negotiating and drafting this Agreement. In the event that an ambiguity or a question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement will be construed as if drafted jointly by all parties, and no presumption or burden of proof will arise favoring or disfavoring any party by virtue of the authorship of any provision of this Agreement.

4.5 Amendment. This Agreement may be amended, modified or supplemented only by the written agreement of the parties hereto.

4.6 Waiver of Compliance. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, the failure by any party to comply with any obligation, covenant, agreement or condition under this Agreement may be waived by the party entitled to the benefit thereof only by a written instrument signed by the party granting such waiver, but such waiver or failure to insist upon strict compliance with such obligation, covenant, agreement or condition will not operate as a waiver of, or estoppel with respect to, any subsequent or other failure. The failure of any party to enforce at any time any of the provisions of this Agreement will in no way be construed to be a waiver of any such provision, or in any way to affect the validity of this Agreement or any part hereof or the right of any party hereafter to enforce each and every such provision. No waiver of any breach of such provisions will be held to be a waiver of any other or subsequent breach.

4.7 Notices. All notices required or permitted pursuant to this Agreement must be given as set forth in the Merger Agreement. All notices directed to KCI will be delivered to Parent as set forth in the Merger Agreement on behalf of KCI.

4.8 Third Party Beneficiaries.

4.9 Successors and Assigns. This Agreement will be binding upon and will inure to the benefit of the signatories hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns. No party may assign this Agreement, or any of its rights or liabilities hereunder, without the prior written consent of the other party hereto, and any attempt to make any such assignment without such consent will be null and void; provided, however, that KCI may assign its rights and liabilities under this Agreement to Parent without Hampton’s written consent. Any such assignment will not relieve the party making the assignment from any liability under this Agreement.

4.10 Severability. The illegality or partial illegality of any or all of this Agreement, or any provision hereof, will not affect the validity of the remainder of this Agreement, or any provision hereof, and the illegality or partial illegality of this Agreement will not affect the validity of this Agreement in any jurisdiction in which such determination of illegality or partial illegality has not been made, except in either case to the extent such illegality or partial illegality causes this Agreement to no longer contain all of the material provisions reasonably expected by the parties to be contained herein.

Class B Holder, as the case may be, held record and beneficial ownership of the shares of Class B Common Stock in question, “Permitted Transferee” means a Permitted Transferee of such deceased, bankrupt or insolvent Class B Holder as determined pursuant to clauses (i), (v) or (vi) above, as the case may be.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, any Class B Holder may pledge such Holder’s shares of Class B Common Stock to a pledgee pursuant to a bona fide pledge of such shares as collateral security for indebtedness due to the pledgee, provided that such shares shall not be transferred to or registered in the name of the pledgee and shall remain subject to the provisions of this paragraph 4. In the event of foreclosure or other similar action by the pledgee, such pledged shares of Class B Common Stock may only be transferred to a Permitted Transferee of the pledgor or converted into shares of Class A Common Stock, as the pledgee may elect.

The Corporation may, as a condition to the transfer or the registration of transfer of shares of Class B Common Stock to a purported Permitted Transferee, require the furnishing of such affidavits or other proof as it deems necessary to establish that such transferee is a Permitted Transferee. The Corporation may note on the certificates for shares of Class B Common Stock the restrictions on transfer and registration of transfer imposed by this paragraph 4.

5. (a) Each share of Class B Common Stock may at any time be converted into one fully paid and nonassessable share of Class A Common Stock. Such right shall be exercised by the surrender of the certificate representing such share of Class B Common Stock to be converted to the Corporation at any time during normal business hours at the principal executive offices of the Corporation, or if an agent for the registration of transfer of shares of Class B Common Stock is then duly appointed and acting (said agent being hereinafter called the “Transfer Agent”) then at the office of the Transfer Agent, accompanied by a written notice of the election by the holder thereof to convert and (if so required by the Corporation or the Transfer Agent) by instruments of transfer, in form satisfactory to the Corporation and to the Transfer Agent, duly executed by such holder or his duly authorized attorney, and transfer tax stamps or funds therefor, if required pursuant to subparagraph (e) below.

(b) As promptly as practicable after the surrender for conversion of a certificate representing shares of Class B Common Stock in the manner provided in subparagraph (a) above and the payment in cash of any amount required by the provisions of subparagraphs (a) and (e), the Corporation will deliver or cause to be delivered to the office of the Transfer Agent upon the written order of the holder of such certificate, a certificate or certificates representing the number of full shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon such conversion, issued in such name or names as such holder may direct. Such conversion shall be deemed to have been made immediately prior to the close of business on the date of the surrender of the certificate representing shares of Class B Common Stock, and all rights of the holder of such shares as such holder shall cease at such time and the person or persons in whose name or names the certificate or certificates representing the shares of Class A Common Stock are to be issued shall be

treated for all purposes as having become the record holder or holders of such shares of Class A Common Stock at such time; provided, however, that any such surrender and payment on any date when the stock transfer books of the Corporation shall be closed shall constitute the person or persons in whose name or names the certificate or certificates representing shares of Class A Common Stock are to be issued as the record holder or holders thereof for all purposes immediately prior to the close of business on the next succeeding day on which such stock transfer books are open.

(c) No adjustments in respect of dividends shall be made upon the conversion of any share of Class B Common Stock, provided, however, that if a share shall be converted subsequent to the record date for the payment of a dividend or other distribution on shares of Class B Common Stock but prior to such payment, the registered holder of such share at the close of business on such record date shall be entitled to receive the dividend or other distribution payable on such share on such date notwithstanding the conversion thereof or the Corporation’s default in payment of the dividend due on such date.

(d) The Corporation covenants that it will at all times reserve and keep available, solely for the purpose of issue upon conversion of the outstanding shares of Class B Common Stock, such number of shares of Class A Common Stock as shall be issuable upon the conversion of all such outstanding shares, provided, that nothing contained herein shall be construed to preclude the Corporation from satisfying its obligations in respect of the conversion of the outstanding shares of Class B Common Stock by delivery of purchased shares of Class A Common Stock which are held in the treasury of the Corporation. The Corporation covenants that if any shares of Class A Common Stock, required to be reserved for purposes of conversion hereunder, require registration with or approval of any governmental authority under any federal or state law before such shares of Class A Common Stock may be issued upon conversion, the Corporation will use its best efforts to cause such shares to be duly registered or approved, as the case may be. The Corporation will use its best efforts to list the shares of Class A Common Stock required to be delivered upon conversion prior to such delivery upon each national securities exchange upon which the outstanding Class A Common Stock is listed at the time of such delivery. The Corporation covenants that all shares of Class A Common Stock will, upon issue, be fully paid and nonassessable and not subject to any preemptive rights.

(e) The issuance of certificates for shares of Class A Common Stock upon conversion of shares of Class B Common Stock shall be made without charge for any stamp or other similar tax in respect of such issuance. However, if any such certificate is to be issued in a name other than that of the holder of the share or shares of Class B Common Stock converted, the person or persons requesting the issuance thereof shall pay to the Corporation the amount of any tax which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in such issuance or shall establish to the satisfaction of the Corporation that such tax has been paid.

6. Each share of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock shall be equal in respect of rights to dividends and other distributions in cash, stock or property of the Corporation, provided that in the case of dividends or other distributions payable in stock of the Corporation, including distributions pursuant to stock split-ups or divisions of stock of the Corporation, which occur after the date of the Spin Off, only shares of Class A Common Stock shall be distributed with respect to Class A Common Stock and only shares of Class B Common Stock shall be distributed with respect to Class B Common Stock.

7. In case of any consolidation, merger or sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Corporation as a result of which stockholders of the Corporation shall be entitled to receive cash, stock other securities or other property with respect to or in exchange for their stock of the Corporation, each holder of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock shall be entitled to receive an equal amount of consideration for each share of Class A Common Stock or Class B Common Stock held by such holder.

8. Except as otherwise provided in paragraph 6 of this Article IV, Section 3, and except as otherwise approved by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the outstanding Voting Stock (as defined below), the Corporation shall not issue additional shares of Class B Common Stock after the date of the Spin Off and all shares of Class B Common Stock surrendered for conversion or otherwise acquired by the Corporation shall be retired.

9. The number of authorized shares of any class or classes of stock of the Corporation may be increased or decreased (but not below the number of shares thereof then outstanding) by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the outstanding stock of the Corporation entitled to vote thereon.

10. (a) No stockholder of the Corporation shall be entitled as of right to subscribe for, purchase or receive any part of any new or additional issue of stock of any class, whether now or hereafter authorized, or of bonds, debentures or other securities convertible into or exchangeable for stock, but all such additional shares of stock of any class, or bonds, debentures or other securities convertible into or exchangeable for stock, may be issued and disposed of by the Board of Directors on such terms and for such consideration, so far as may be permitted by law, and to such persons, as the Board of Directors in its absolute discretion may deem advisable.

(b) Authority is hereby expressly granted to the Board of Directors from time to time to issue any authorized but unissued shares of Class A Common Stock for such consideration (but not less than par value) and on such terms as it may determine.

11. The Corporation shall be entitled to treat the person in whose name any share of its stock is registered as the owner thereof for all purposes, and shall not be bound to recognize any equitable or other claims to, or interest in, such share on the part of any other person, whether or not the Corporation shall have notice thereof, except as expressly provided by applicable law.

ARTICLE V

Section 1. Number, Election and Terms of Directors. Subject to the rights, if any, of the holders of any series of Preferred Stock to elect additional Directors under circumstances specified in a Preferred Stock Designation, the number of the Directors of the Corporation will not be less than [ ] nor more than [ ] and will be fixed from time to time in the manner provided in the Bylaws of the Corporation. The Directors, other than those who may be elected by the holders of any series of Preferred Stock, will be classified with respect to the time for which they severally hold office into three classes, as nearly equal in number as possible, designated Class I, Class II and Class III. At any meeting of stockholders at which Directors are to be elected, the number of Directors elected may not exceed the greatest number of Directors then in office in any class of Directors.

Section 2. Nomination of Director Candidates. Advance notice of stockholder nominations for the election of Directors must be given in the manner provided in the Bylaws of the Corporation.

Section 3. Removal. Subject to the rights, if any, of the holders of any series of Preferred Stock to elect additional Directors under circumstances specified in a Preferred Stock Designation, any Director may be removed from office by the stockholders only for cause and only in the manner provided in this Article V, Section 3. At any annual meeting or special meeting of the stockholders, the notice of which states that the removal of a Director or Directors is among the purposes of the meeting, the affirmative vote of the holders of at least 80% of the voting power of the outstanding Voting Stock, voting together as a single class, may remove such Director or Directors for cause.

Section 4. Amendment, Repeal, Etc. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Certificate of Incorporation to the contrary, the affirmative vote of the holders of at least 80% of the outstanding voting power of the outstanding Voting Stock, voting together as a single class, is required to amend or repeal, or adopt any provision

inconsistent with, this Article V. The amendment or repeal of, or the adoption of any provision inconsistent with, this Article V must be made by written ballot.

ARTICLE VI

The Board of Directors may make, amend and repeal the Bylaws of the Corporation. Any Bylaw made by the Board of Directors under the powers conferred hereby may be amended or repealed by the Board of Directors (except as specified in any such Bylaw so made or amended) or by the stockholders in the manner provided in the Bylaws of the Corporation. Notwithstanding the foregoing and anything contained in this Certificate of Incorporation or the Bylaws to the contrary, Article I, Sections 1, 3 and 8, Article II, Sections 1, 2 and 3 and Article VII of the Bylaws may not be amended or repealed by the stockholders, and no provision inconsistent therewith may be adopted by the stockholders, without the affirmative vote of the holders of at least 80% of the voting power of the outstanding Voting Stock, voting together as a single class. The Corporation may in its Bylaws confer powers upon the Board of Directors in addition to the foregoing and in addition to the powers and authorities expressly conferred upon the Board of Directors by applicable law. For the purposes of this Certificate of Incorporation, “Voting Stock” means stock of the Corporation of any class or series entitled to vote generally in the election of Directors. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Certificate of Incorporation to the contrary, the affirmative vote of the holders of at least 80% of the voting power of the outstanding Voting Stock, voting together as a single class, is required to amend or repeal, or to adopt any provision inconsistent with, this Article VI.

ARTICLE VII

Subject to the rights of the holders of any series of Preferred Stock:

(a) any action required or permitted to be taken by the stockholders of the Corporation must be effected at a duly called annual or special meeting of stockholders of the Corporation and may not be effected by any consent in writing of such stockholders; and

(b) special meetings of stockholders of the Corporation may be called only by (i) the Chairman of the Board of Directors, the Chief Executive Officer or the President of the Corporation, or (ii) the Secretary of the Corporation within ten calendar days after the Secretary receives the written request of a majority of the total number of Directors then in office.

At any annual meeting or special meeting of stockholders of the Corporation, only such business will be conducted or considered as has been brought before such meeting in the manner provided in the Bylaws of the Corporation. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Certificate of Incorporation to the contrary, the affirmative vote of the holders of at least 80% of the voting power of the outstanding Voting Stock, voting together as a single class, will be required to amend or repeal, or adopt any provision inconsistent with, this Article VII.

ARTICLE VIII

To the fullest extent permitted by the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware or any other applicable laws as presently or hereafter in effect, no member of the Board of Directors shall be personally liable to the Corporation or its stockholders for or with respect to any acts or omissions in the performance of his or her duties as a member of the Board of Directors. No amendment to or repeal of this Article VIII shall apply to or have any effect on the liability or alleged liability of any member of the Board of Directors for or with respect to any acts or omissions of such member occurring prior to such amendment or repeal.

ARTICLE IX

Section 1. Right to Indemnification. The Corporation shall indemnify to the fullest extent permitted or required by the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware any current or former director, officer or employee of the Corporation who is made, or threatened to be made, a party to or is otherwise involved in an action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative, investigative or other (including an action, suit or

proceeding by or in the right of the Corporation) (collectively, a “proceeding”), by reason of the fact that such person is or was a director or officer of the Corporation or an administrator or fiduciary with respect to any employee benefit plan of the Corporation, or serves or served at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent, or as an administrator or fiduciary of an employee benefit plan, of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise (an “indemnitee”) against all expense, liability and loss (including attorneys’ fees, judgments, fines, Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (or comparable non-U.S. law) excise taxes or penalties and amounts paid in settlement) reasonably incurred or suffered by such indemnitee in connection therewith; provided, however, that the Corporation shall indemnify any such indemnitee in connection with a proceeding (or part thereof) initiated by such indemnitee only if such proceeding (or part thereof) was authorized by the Board of Directors. No amendment to this Article IX that limits the Corporation’s obligation to indemnify any person shall have any effect on such obligation for any act or omission that occurs prior to the later of the effective date of the amendment or the date notice of the amendment is given to the person.

Section 2. Right to Advancement of Expenses. Any indemnification made pursuant to Section 1 of this Article IX shall include the right to be paid by the Corporation the expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred in defending any such proceeding in advance of its final disposition (an “advancement of expenses”); provided, however, that, if the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware so requires, an advancement of expenses incurred by an indemnitee in his or her capacity as a director, officer or employee (and not in any other capacity in which service was or is rendered by such indemnitee, including, without limitation, service to an employee benefit plan) shall be made only upon delivery to the Corporation of an undertaking (an “undertaking”), by or on behalf of such indemnitee, to repay all amounts so advanced if it shall ultimately be determined by final judicial decision from which there is no further right to appeal (a “final adjudication”) that such indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified for such expenses under this Section 2 or otherwise. The rights to indemnification and to the advancement of expenses conferred in Sections 1 and 2 of this Article IX shall be contract rights and such rights shall continue as to an indemnitee who has ceased to be a director, officer, employee or agent and shall inure to the benefit of the indemnitee’s heirs, executors and administrators.

Section 3. Indemnification of Employees and Agents of the Corporation. The Corporation may, to the extent authorized from time to time by the Board of Directors, grant rights to indemnification and to the advancement of expenses to any employee or agent of the Corporation or an administrator or fiduciary with respect to any employee benefit plan to the fullest extent of the provisions of this Article IX with respect to the indemnification and advancement of expenses of directors and officers of the Corporation.

Section 4. Non-Exclusivity of Rights. Any indemnification or advancement of expenses made pursuant to this Article IX shall not be exclusive of any other right that any person may have or hereafter acquire under any statute, this Certificate of Incorporation, the Bylaws or any agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise.

Section 5. Insurance. The Corporation may maintain insurance, at its expense, to protect itself and any director, officer, employee or agent of the Corporation or another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against any expense, liability or loss, whether or not the Corporation would have the power to indemnify such person against such expense, liability or loss under the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Board may, in its sole discretion, determine that meetings of the stockholders will not be held at any place, but may instead be held by means of remote communications, subject to such guidelines and procedures as the Board may adopt from time to time. The Board may postpone and reschedule any previously scheduled annual or special meeting of the stockholders.

Section 2. Annual Meetings. Annual meetings of stockholders will be held at such date and time as may be designated from time to time by the Board, at which meeting the stockholders will elect by a plurality of the votes cast by written ballot the directors to succeed those directors whose terms expire at such meeting and will transact such other business as may properly be brought before the meeting in accordance with Article I, Section 8.

Section 3. Special Meetings. Special meetings of the stockholders may be called only by (i) the Chairman, the Chief Executive Officer or the President or (ii) the Secretary within ten calendar days after the Secretary receives the written request of a majority of the total number of directors then in office. Any such request by a majority of the total number of directors then in office must be sent to the Chairman and the Secretary and must state the purpose or purposes of the proposed meeting. Special meetings of holders of the outstanding preferred stock of the Corporation (the “Preferred Stock”), if any, may be called in the manner and for the purpose or purposes provided in the applicable Preferred Stock Designation (as defined in the Corporation’s Certificate of Incorporation, as amended (the “Certificate of Incorporation”)).

Section 4. Notice of Meetings. Written notice of every meeting of the stockholders, stating the place, if any, date and time thereof, the means of remote communications, if any, by which stockholders and proxy holders may be deemed to be present in person and vote at such meeting, and, in the case of a special meeting, the purpose or purposes for which the meeting is called, will be given not less than ten nor more than 60 calendar days before the date of the meeting to each stockholder of record entitled to vote at such meeting, except as otherwise provided herein, by the Certificate of Incorporation or by law. When a meeting is adjourned to another place, date or time, written notice need not be given of the adjourned meeting if the place, if any, date and time thereof, and the means of remote communications, if any, by which stockholders and proxy holders may be deemed to be present in person and vote at such adjourned meeting are announced at the meeting at which the adjournment is taken; provided, however, that if the adjournment is for more than 30 calendar days, or if after the adjournment a new record date is fixed for the adjourned meeting, written notice of the place, if any, date and time thereof, and the means of remote communications, if any, by which stockholders and proxy holders may be deemed to be present in person and vote at such adjourned meeting must be given in conformity herewith. At any adjourned meeting, any business may be transacted that properly could have been transacted at the original meeting.

Section 5. Inspectors. The Board may appoint one or more inspectors of election, who may be employees of the Corporation, to act as judges of the voting and to determine those entitled to vote at any meeting of the stockholders, or any adjournment thereof, in advance of such meeting. The Board may designate one or more persons as alternate inspectors to replace any inspector who fails to act. If no inspector or alternate is able to act at a meeting of stockholders, the presiding officer of the meeting may appoint one or more substitute inspectors.

Section 6. Quorum. The holders of a majority of the outstanding voting power of all classes of stock entitled to vote thereat, present in person or represented by proxy, will constitute a quorum at all meetings of the stockholders for the transaction of business thereat except as otherwise provided by law, by the Certificate of Incorporation or in a Preferred Stock Designation. If, however, such quorum is not present or represented at any meeting of the stockholders, the presiding officer or holders of a majority of the outstanding voting power of all classes of stock entitled to vote thereat, present in person or represented by proxy, will have the power to adjourn the meeting from time to time, without notice other than announcement at the meeting, until a quorum is present or represented.

Section 7. Voting; Proxies. Except as otherwise provided by law, by the Certificate of Incorporation or in a Preferred Stock Designation, each stockholder entitled to vote at any meeting of stockholders will be entitled at every meeting of the stockholders to one vote for each share of stock having voting power standing in the name of such stockholder on the books of the Corporation on the record date for the meeting and such votes may be cast either in person or by proxy. Every proxy must be authorized in a manner permitted by Section 212 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (or any successor provision). Without affecting any vote previously taken, a stockholder may revoke any proxy that is not irrevocable by attending the meeting and voting in person or by delivering a revocation of proxy or a new proxy bearing a later date to the Secretary of the Corporation. The vote upon any question brought before a meeting of the stockholders may be by voice vote, unless otherwise required by the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws or unless the Chairman or the holders of a majority of the outstanding voting power of all classes of stock entitled to vote thereon, present in person or represented by proxy at such meeting, otherwise determine. Every vote taken by written ballot will be counted by the inspectors of election. When a quorum is present at any meeting, the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the outstanding voting power of all classes of stock entitled to vote thereon, present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and which has actually been voted, will be the act of the stockholders, except in the election of directors or as otherwise provided in these Bylaws, the Certificate of Incorporation, a Preferred Stock Designation or by law.

Section 8. Order of Business.

(a) The Chairman, or such other officer of the Corporation designated by a majority of the total number of directors then in office, will call meetings of the stockholders to order and will act as presiding officer thereof. Unless otherwise determined by the Board prior to the meeting, the presiding officer of the meeting of the stockholders will also determine the date and time of the opening and closing of the polls for each matter upon which the stockholders will vote at the meeting and the order of business and have the authority in his or her sole discretion to regulate the conduct of any such meeting, including, without limitation, by imposing restrictions on the persons (other than stockholders of the Corporation or their duly appointed proxies) that may attend any such stockholders’ meeting, by ascertaining whether any stockholder or such stockholder’s proxy may be excluded from any meeting of the stockholders based upon any determination by the presiding officer, in the presiding officer’s sole discretion, that any such person has disrupted or is likely to disrupt the proceedings thereat, and by determining the circumstances in which any person may make a statement or ask questions at any meeting of the stockholders. Unless and to the extent determined by the Board or the presiding officer of the meeting, meetings of stockholders will not be required to be held in accordance with the rules of parliamentary procedure.

(b) At an annual meeting of the stockholders, only such business will be conducted or considered as is properly brought before the annual meeting. To be properly brought before an annual meeting, business must be (i) specified in the notice of the annual meeting (or any supplement thereto) given by or at the direction of the Board in accordance with Article I, Section 4, (ii) otherwise properly brought before the annual meeting by or at the direction of the presiding officer or by or at the direction of a majority of the total number of directors then in office, or (iii) otherwise properly requested to be brought before the annual meeting by a stockholder of the Corporation in accordance with Article I, Section 8(c).

(c) For business to be properly requested by a stockholder to be brought before an annual meeting, (i) the stockholder must be a stockholder of the Corporation of record at the time of the giving of the notice for such annual meeting provided for in these Bylaws, (ii) the stockholder must be entitled to vote at such meeting, (iii) the stockholder must have given timely notice thereof in writing to the Secretary and (iv) if the stockholder, or the beneficial owner on whose behalf any business is brought before the meeting, has provided the Corporation with a

Proposal Solicitation Notice, as that term is defined in this Section 8(c), such stockholder or beneficial owner must have delivered a proxy statement and form of proxy to the holders of at least the percentage of shares of the outstanding Voting Stock (as defined in the Certificate of Incorporation) that is required to approve such business that the stockholder proposes to bring before the annual meeting and included in such materials the Proposal Solicitation Notice. To be timely, a stockholder’s notice must be delivered to or mailed and received at the principal executive offices of the Corporation not less than 60 nor more than 90 calendar days prior to the first anniversary of the date on which the Corporation first mailed its proxy materials for the preceding year’s annual meeting of stockholders; provided, however, that if the date of the annual meeting is advanced more than 30 calendar days prior to or delayed by more than 30 calendar days after the anniversary of the preceding year’s annual meeting, notice by the stockholder to be timely must be so delivered or received, as the case may be, not later than the close of business on the later of the 90th calendar day prior to such annual meeting or the tenth calendar day following the day on which public disclosure of the date of such meeting is first made. In no event shall the public disclosure of an adjournment of an annual meeting commence a new time period for the giving of a stockholder’s notice as described above. A stockholder’s notice to the Secretary must set forth as to each matter the stockholder proposes to bring before the annual meeting (A) a description in reasonable detail of the business desired to be brought before the annual meeting and the reasons for conducting such business at the annual meeting, (B) the name and address, as they appear on the Corporation’s books, of the stockholder proposing such business and the beneficial owner, if different, on whose behalf the proposal is made, (C) the class and series and number of shares of capital stock of the Corporation that are owned beneficially and of record by the stockholder proposing such business and by the beneficial owner, if different, on whose behalf the proposal is made, (D) a description of all arrangements or understandings among such stockholder and any other person or persons (including their names) in connection with the proposal of such business by such stockholder and any material interest of such stockholder in such business, (E) whether either such stockholder or beneficial owner intends to deliver a proxy statement and form of proxy to holders of at least the percentage of shares of the outstanding Voting Stock that is required to approve the proposal (an affirmative statement of such intent, a “Proposal Solicitation Notice”) and (F) a representation that such stockholder intends to appear in person or by proxy at the annual meeting to bring such business before the annual meeting. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 8(c), a stockholder must also comply with all applicable requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and the rules and regulations thereunder (the “Exchange Act”) with respect to the matters set forth in this Section 8(c). For purposes of this Section 8(c) and Article II, Section 3, “public disclosure” means disclosure in a press release reported by the Dow Xxxxx News Service, Associated Press or comparable national news service or in a document filed by the Corporation with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to the Exchange Act or furnished by the Corporation to stockholders. Nothing in this Section 8(c) will be deemed to affect any rights of stockholders to request inclusion of proposals in the Corporation’s proxy statement pursuant to Rule 14a-8 under the Exchange Act.

(d) At a special meeting of stockholders, only such business may be conducted or considered as is properly brought before the meeting. To be properly brought before a special meeting, business must be (i) specified in the notice of the meeting (or any supplement thereto) given by or at the direction of the Chairman, the Chief Executive Officer, the President or a majority of the total number of directors then in office in accordance with Article I, Section 3 or (ii) otherwise properly brought before the meeting by the presiding officer or by or at the direction of a majority of the total number of directors then in office.

(e) The determination of whether any business sought to be brought before any annual or special meeting of the stockholders is properly brought before such meeting in accordance with this Section 8 will be made by the presiding officer of such meeting. If the presiding officer determines that any business is not properly brought before such meeting, he or she will so declare to the meeting and any such business will not be conducted or considered.

Section 9. Definition. Every reference in these Bylaws to a majority or other proportion of stock shall refer to such majority or other proportion of the votes of shares of all classes of such stock.

ARTICLE II

DIRECTORS

Section 1. Number and Term of Office. Subject to the rights, if any, of any series of Preferred Stock to elect additional directors under circumstances specified in a Preferred Stock Designation, and to the minimum and maximum number of authorized directors provided in the Certificate of Incorporation, the authorized number of directors may be determined from time to time only (i) by a vote of a majority of the total number of directors then in office or (ii) by the affirmative vote of the holders of at least 80% of the outstanding voting power of the outstanding Voting Stock, voting together as a single class. The directors, other than those who may be elected by the holders of any series of the Preferred Stock, will be classified with respect to the time for which they severally hold office in accordance with the Certificate of Incorporation. Directors need not be stockholders.

Section 2. Vacancies and New Directorships. Subject to the rights, if any, of the holders of any series of Preferred Stock to elect additional directors under circumstances specified in a Preferred Stock Designation, newly created directorships resulting from any increase in the number of directors and any vacancies on the Board resulting from death, resignation, disqualification, removal or other cause will be filled solely by the affirmative vote of a majority of the remaining directors then in office, even though less than a quorum of the Board, or by a sole remaining director. Any director elected in accordance with the preceding sentence will hold office for the remainder of the full term of the class of directors in which the new directorship was created or the vacancy occurred and until such director’s successor is duly elected and qualified, subject to such director’s earlier death, resignation, disqualification or removal. No decrease in the number of directors constituting the Board will shorten the term of an incumbent director.

Section 3. Nominations of Directors; Election. (a) Subject to the rights, if any, of the holders of any series of Preferred Stock to elect additional directors under circumstances specified in a Preferred Stock Designation, only persons who are nominated in accordance with this Section 3 of Article II will be eligible for election as directors of the Corporation at a meeting of stockholders.

(b) Nominations of persons for election as directors of the Corporation may be made only at an annual meeting of stockholders (i) by or at the direction of the Board or a committee thereof or (ii) by any stockholder that is a stockholder of record at the time of giving of notice provided for in this Section 3 of Article II, who is entitled to vote for the election of directors at such annual meeting, and who complies with the procedures set forth in this Section 3 of Article II. If a stockholder, or a beneficial owner on whose behalf any such nomination is made, has provided the Corporation with a Nomination Solicitation Notice, as that term is defined in this Section 3 of Article II below, such stockholder or beneficial owner must have delivered a proxy statement and form of proxy to the holders of at least the percentage of shares of the outstanding Voting Stock that is required to approve such nomination and included in such materials the Nomination Solicitation Notice. All nominations by stockholders must be made pursuant to timely notice in proper written form to the Secretary.

(c) To be timely, a stockholder’s notice must be delivered to or mailed and received at the principal executive offices of the Corporation not less than 60 nor more than 90 calendar days prior to the first anniversary of the date on which the Corporation first mailed its proxy materials for the preceding year’s annual meeting of stockholders; provided, however, that if the date of the annual meeting is advanced more than 30 calendar days prior to or delayed by more than 30 calendar days after the anniversary of the preceding year’s annual meeting, notice by the stockholder to be timely must be so delivered not later than the close of business on the later of the 90th calendar day prior to such annual meeting or the tenth calendar day following the day on which public disclosure of the date of such meeting is first made. If the Corporation did not hold an annual meeting the previous year, then the deadline is a reasonable time before the Corporation begins to print and mail its proxy materials. In no event shall the public disclosure of an adjournment of an annual meeting commence a new time period for the giving of a stockholder’s notice as described above. To be in proper written form, such stockholder’s notice must set forth or include the following: (i) the name and address, as they appear on the Corporation’s books, of the stockholder giving the notice and of the beneficial owner, if any, on whose behalf the nomination is made; (ii) a representation that the stockholder giving the notice is a holder of record of stock of the Corporation entitled to vote at such annual meeting and intends to appear in person or by proxy at the annual meeting to nominate the person or persons specified in the notice; (iii) the class and number of shares of stock of the Corporation owned beneficially and of record by the

stockholder giving the notice and by the beneficial owner, if any, on whose behalf the nomination is made; (iv) a description of all arrangements or understandings between or among any of (A) the stockholder giving the notice, (B) the beneficial owner on whose behalf the notice is given, (C) each nominee, and (D) any other person or persons (naming such person or persons) pursuant to which the nomination or nominations are to be made by the stockholder giving the notice; (v) such other information regarding each nominee proposed by the stockholder giving the notice as would be required to be included in a proxy statement filed pursuant to the proxy rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission had the nominee been nominated, or intended to be nominated, by the Board; (vi) the signed consent of each nominee to serve as a director of the Corporation if so elected; (vii) whether either such stockholder or beneficial owner intends to deliver a proxy statement and form of proxy to holders of at least the percentage of shares of the outstanding Voting Stock that is required to elect such nominee or nominees (an affirmative statement of such intent, a “Nomination Solicitation Notice”); and (viii) a representation that such stockholder intends to appear in person or by proxy at the meeting to nominate the persons named in the notice. At the request of the Board, any person nominated by the Board for election as a director must furnish to the Secretary that information required to be set forth in a stockholder’s notice of nomination that pertains to the nominee. The presiding officer of any annual meeting will, if the facts warrant, determine that a nomination was not made in accordance with the procedures prescribed by this Section 3 of Article II, and if he or she should so determine, he or she will so declare to the meeting and the defective nomination will be disregarded. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 3 of Article II, a stockholder must also comply with all applicable requirements of the Exchange Act with respect to the matters set forth in this Section 3 of Article II.

Section 4. Powers. The business and affairs of the Corporation will be managed by or under the direction of the Board, which may exercise all such powers of the Corporation and do all such lawful acts and things as are not by law or by the Certificate of Incorporation or by these Bylaws directed or required to be exercised or done by the stockholders.

Section 5. Resignation. Any director may resign at any time by giving notice in writing or by electronic transmission of his or her resignation to the Chairman or the Secretary. Any resignation will be effective upon actual receipt by any such person or, if later, as of the date and time specified in such written notice. The acceptance of a resignation will not be necessary to make any such resignation effective, unless expressly so provided in the resignation.

Special meetings of the Board may be called by the Chairman, Chief Executive Officer or the President on one calendar day’s notice to each director by whom it is not waived, given either personally or by telephone or by any means set forth in Section 1 of Article III; special meetings will be called by the Chairman, Chief Executive Officer, President or Secretary in like manner and on like notice on the written request of a majority of the total number of directors then in office. Special meetings of the Board may be held at such time and place either within or without the State of Delaware as is determined by the Board or specified in the notice of any such meeting.

Section 8. Quorum. At all meetings of the Board, a majority of the total number of directors then in office, or if the total number of directors then in office is an even number one-half thereof, will constitute a quorum for the transaction of business. Except for the designation of committees as hereinafter provided and except for actions required by these Bylaws, by the Certificate of Incorporation or by law to be taken by a majority of the total number of directors then in office, the act of a majority of the directors present at any meeting at which there is a quorum will be the act of the Board. If a quorum is not present at any meeting of the Board, the directors present thereat may adjourn the meeting from time to time to another place, time, or date, without notice other than announcement at the meeting, until a quorum is present.

Section 9. Written Action. Any action required or permitted to be taken at any meeting of the Board or of any committee thereof may be taken without a meeting, if all members of the Board or of such committee, as the case may be, consent thereto in writing or electronic transmission, and such writing or writings or electronic transmission are filed with the minutes or proceedings of the Board or committee.

Section 10. Participation in Meetings by Remote Communications. Members of the Board or any committee designated by the Board may participate in a meeting of the Board or any such committee, as the case may be, by means of telephone conference or other similar communications equipment by means of which all persons participating in the meeting can hear each other, and such participation in a meeting will constitute presence in person at the meeting, except where a person participates in the meeting for the express purpose of objecting to the transaction of any business on the ground that the meeting is not lawfully called or convened.

Section 11. Committees. The Board may, by resolution passed by a majority of the total number of directors then in office, designate one or more committees, each committee to consist of one or more of the directors of the Corporation and each to have such lawfully delegable powers and duties as the Board may confer. The Board may designate one or more directors as alternate members of any committee, who may replace any absent or disqualified member at any meeting of the committee. In lieu of such designation by the Board, in the absence or disqualification of any member of a committee of the Board, the members thereof present at any such meeting of such committee and not disqualified from voting, whether or not they constitute a quorum, may unanimously appoint another member of the Board to act at the meeting in the place of any such absent or disqualified member. Except as otherwise provided by law, any such committee, to the extent provided in the resolution of the Board, will have and may exercise all the powers and authority of the Board in the management of the business and affairs of the Corporation, and may, if appropriate, authorize the seal of the Corporation to be affixed to all papers which may require it. Such committee or committees shall have such name or names and such limitations of authority as may be determined from time to time by resolution adopted by the Board.

Section 12. Conduct of Business. Unless otherwise ordered by the Board, a majority of the members of any committee appointed by the Board pursuant to these Bylaws shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business at any meeting thereof, and the act of a majority of the members present at a meeting at which a quorum is present will be the act of such committee. Any such committee may prescribe its own rules for calling and holding meetings and its method of procedure, subject to any rules prescribed by the Board, and will keep a written record of all actions taken by it.
