ARTICLE II

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE STOCKHOLDERS

Each Stockholder represents and warrants, on its own account with respect to the Subject Shares, to Parent and Merger Sub as to such Stockholder on a several basis, that:

2.1 Authorization; Binding Agreement. If such Stockholder is not an individual, such Stockholder is duly organized and validly existing in good standing under the Laws of the jurisdiction in which it is incorporated or constituted and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby are within such Stockholder’s entity powers and have been duly authorized by all necessary entity actions on the part of such Stockholder, and such Stockholder has full power and authority to comply with, execute, deliver and perform its obligations under this Agreement and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby. This

Agreement has been duly and validly executed and delivered by such Stockholder and, assuming the due authorization, execution and delivery by Xxxxxx and Merger Sub, constitutes a valid and binding obligation of such Stockholder enforceable against such Stockholder in accordance with its terms, subject to the Bankruptcy, Equity and Indemnity Exception. No other action of such Stockholder is necessary to authorize this Agreement.

2.2 Non-Contravention. Neither the execution and delivery of this Agreement by such Stockholder nor the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby nor compliance by such Stockholder with any provisions herein will (a) if such Stockholder is not an individual, violate, contravene or conflict with or result in any breach of any provision of the certificate of incorporation or bylaws (or other similar governing documents) of such Stockholder, (b) require any consent, approval, authorization or permit of, or filing with or notification to, any Governmental Entity on the part of such Stockholder, except for compliance with the applicable requirements of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or any other United States or federal securities laws and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, (c) violate, conflict with, or result in a breach of any provisions of, or require any consent, waiver or approval or result in a default or loss of a benefit (or give rise to any right of termination, cancellation, modification or acceleration or any event that, with the giving of notice, the passage of time or otherwise, would constitute a default or give rise to any such right) under any of the terms, conditions or provisions of any Contract or other legally binding instrument or obligation to which such Stockholder is a party or by which such Stockholder or any of its assets may be bound, (d) result (or, with the giving of notice, the passage of time or otherwise, would result) in the creation or imposition of any Lien on any Subject Shares of such Stockholder (other than one created by Parent or Merger Sub), or (e) violate any Law or Judgment applicable to such Stockholder or by which any of its Subject Shares are bound, except as would not, in the case of each of clauses (c), (d) and (e), adversely affect in any material respect such Stockholder’s ability to timely perform its obligations under this Agreement. No trust of which such Stockholder is a trustee requires the consent of any beneficiary to the execution and delivery of this Agreement or to the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby.

2.3 Ownership of Subject Shares; Total Shares. As of the date hereof, such Stockholder is, and (except with respect to any Subject Shares Transferred in accordance with Section 4.1 hereof or accepted for payment pursuant to the Offer or Company Stock Options that are not exercised during the Agreement Period) at all times during the Agreement Period (as defined below) will be, the record or beneficial owner (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act) of all such Stockholder’s Subject Shares and has good and marketable title to all such Subject Shares free and clear of any Liens, except for (a) any such Lien that may be imposed pursuant to (i) this Agreement and (ii) any applicable restrictions on transfer under the Securities Act or any state securities law and (b) community property interests under applicable Law (collectively, “Permitted Liens”). Except to the extent of any Subject Shares acquired after the date hereof (which shall become Subject Shares upon that acquisition), the number of Subject Shares listed on Schedule A opposite such Stockholder’s name are the only equity interests in the Company beneficially owned or owned of record by such Stockholder as of the date hereof. Other than the Subject Shares, such Stockholder does not own any shares of Company Common Stock or any other interests in any voting securities of the Company and has no interest in or voting rights with respect to any voting securities of the Company.

ARTICLE IV

ADDITIONAL COVENANTS OF THE STOCKHOLDERS

Each Stockholder hereby covenants and agrees that until the valid termination of this Agreement in accordance with Section 5.2:

4.1 No Transfer; No Inconsistent Arrangements. Except as provided hereunder or under the Merger Agreement, from and after the date hereof and until this Agreement is validly terminated in accordance with Section 5.2, such Stockholder shall not, directly or indirectly, (a) create or permit to exist any Lien, other than Permitted Liens, on any of such Stockholder’s Subject Shares, (b) transfer, sell (including short sell), assign, gift, hedge, pledge, grant a participation interest in, hypothecate or otherwise dispose of, or enter into any derivative arrangement with respect to (collectively, “Transfer”), any of such Stockholder’s Subject Shares, or any right or interest therein (or consent to any of the foregoing), (c) enter into any Contract with respect to any Transfer of such Stockholder’s Subject Shares or any interest therein, (d) grant or permit the grant of any proxy, power-of-attorney or other authorization or consent in or with respect to any such Stockholder’s Subject Shares, (e) deposit or permit the deposit of any of such Stockholder’s Subject Shares into a voting trust or enter into a voting agreement or arrangement with respect to any of such Stockholder’s

Subject Shares, or (f) take or permit any other action that would in any way restrict, limit, impede, delay or interfere with the performance of, and compliance with, such Stockholder’s obligations hereunder in any material respect, otherwise make any representation or warranty of such Stockholder herein untrue or incorrect, or have the effect of preventing or disabling such Stockholder from performing, and complying with, any of its obligations under this Agreement. Any action taken in violation of the foregoing sentence shall be null and void ab initio. Each Stockholder hereby authorizes Parent to direct the Company to impose stop orders to prevent the Transfer of any Subject Shares on the books of the Company in violation of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Stockholder may Transfer Subject Shares to any (x) Affiliate of such Stockholder or (y) to any charitable organization; provided that, in each case, such Transfer shall be permitted only if all of the representations and warranties in this Agreement with respect to such Stockholder would be true and correct at the time of such Transfer and the transferee shall have executed and delivered to Parent and Merger Sub a counterpart to this Agreement pursuant to which such transferee shall be bound by all of the terms and provisions of this Agreement and agree and acknowledge that such Person shall constitute a Stockholder for all purposes of this Agreement. If any involuntary Transfer of any of such Stockholder’s Subject Shares in the Company shall occur (including, but not limited to, a sale by such Stockholder’s trustee in any bankruptcy, or a sale to a purchaser at any creditor’s or court sale), the transferee (which term, as used herein, shall include any and all transferees and subsequent transferees of the initial transferee) shall take and hold such Subject Shares subject to all of the restrictions, liabilities and rights under this Agreement, which shall continue in full force and effect until valid termination of this Agreement in accordance with Section 5.2. Each Stockholder agrees that it shall not, and shall cause each of its Affiliates not to, become a member of a “group” (as defined under Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act) for the purpose of taking any actions inconsistent with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the Merger Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, such Stockholder may make Transfers of its Subject Shares as Parent may agree in writing in its sole discretion. Each Stockholder shall notify Parent as promptly as reasonably practicable (and in any event within 48 hours after receipt) in writing of the number of any additional shares of Company Common Stock or any other securities of the Company of which such Stockholder acquires beneficial or record ownership on or after the date hereof.

4.2 No Exercise of Appraisal Rights. Such Stockholder forever waives and agrees not to exercise any appraisal rights or dissenters’ rights, including pursuant to Section 262 of the DGCL, in respect of such Stockholder’s Subject Shares (other than Company Stock Options that are not exercised during the Agreement Period) that may arise in connection with the Offer or the Merger.

4.3 Documentation and Information. Such Stockholder shall not make any public announcement regarding this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby without the prior written consent of Parent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld), except as may be required by applicable Law (provided that, other than in the case of an amendment to a Schedule 13D or 13G that discloses this Agreement, reasonable notice of any such disclosure will be provided to Parent). Such Stockholder consents to and hereby authorizes Parent, the Company and Merger Sub to publish and disclose in all documents and schedules filed with the SEC, including Schedule 14D-9, and any press release or other disclosure document that Parent, the Company or Merger Sub reasonably determines to be necessary in connection with the Offer, the Merger and any of the other Transactions, in each case regarding such Stockholder’s identity and ownership of the Subject Shares, the existence of this Agreement, the nature of such Stockholder’s commitments and obligations under this Agreement and any other information that Parent or the Company reasonably determines is required to be disclosed by Law, and such Stockholder acknowledges that Parent and Merger Sub may, in Parent’s sole discretion, file this Agreement or a form hereof with the SEC or any other Governmental Entity. Such Stockholder agrees to promptly give Parent any information it may reasonably request for the preparation of any such disclosure documents, and such Stockholder agrees to promptly notify Parent of any required corrections with respect to any information supplied by such Stockholder specifically for use in any such disclosure document, if and to the extent that any such information shall have become false or misleading in any material respect.

4.4 Adjustments. In the event of any stock split, stock dividend, merger, reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification, combination, exchange of shares or the like of the capital stock of the Company affecting the Subject Shares, the terms of this Agreement shall apply to the resulting securities.

4.5 Waiver of Certain Actions. Each Stockholder hereby agrees not to commence or participate in, and to take all actions necessary to opt out of any class in any class action with respect to, any claim, derivative or otherwise, against the Company, Parent, Merger Sub or any of their respective successors, directors or officers relating to the negotiation, execution or delivery of this Agreement or the Merger Agreement or the consummation of the Merger or the other Transactions, including any such claim (a) challenging the validity of, or seeking to enjoin or delay the operation of, any provision of this Agreement or the Merger Agreement (including any claim seeking to enjoin or delay the acceptance of the Offer or the Merger Closing) or (b) alleging a breach of any duty of the Company Board in connection with the Merger Agreement, this Agreement or the transactions contemplated thereby or hereby, but excluding any such claim brought by a Stockholder following the Effective Time as a third party beneficiary under Section 10.05(a) of the Merger Agreement or as an Indemnified Party.

4.6 No Solicitation. Each Stockholder, solely in its capacity as a stockholder of the Company, shall not, and shall cause its Representatives not to, directly or indirectly, (a) solicit, initiate, knowingly facilitate or knowingly encourage (including by way of providing information or taking any other action) any inquiries, proposals or offers, or the making of any submission or announcement of any inquiry, proposal or offer that constitutes or could reasonably be expected to lead to any Company Takeover Proposal, (b) directly or indirectly engage in, enter into or participate in any discussions or negotiations with any Person regarding, or furnish to any Person any information or afford access to the business, properties, assets, books or records of the Company to, or take any other action to assist, knowingly facilitate or knowingly encourage any effort by any Person, in each case in connection with or in response to any inquiry, offer or proposal that constitutes, or could reasonably be expected to lead to any Company Takeover Proposal (other than, solely in response to an inquiry that did not result from a material breach of this Section 4.6, to refer the inquiring person to the restrictions of this Section 4.6 and of the Merger Agreement and to limit such Stockholder’s communication exclusively to such referral), (c) enter into any agreement in principle, letter of intent, term sheet, merger agreement, purchase agreement, acquisition agreement, option agreement or other similar instrument relating to an Company Takeover Proposal, (d) knowingly encourage or recommend any other holder of Company Common Stock to vote against the Merger or to not tender shares of Company Common Stock into the Offer or (e) resolve or agree to do any of the foregoing. Each Stockholder shall, and shall direct and cause its Representatives to, immediately cease and cause to be terminated all solicitations, discussions or negotiations regarding any inquiry, proposal or offer with any Person or groups that may be ongoing with respect to any Company Takeover Proposal or potential Company Takeover Proposal or that could reasonably be expected to lead to a Company Takeover Proposal. For clarity, if such Stockholder is a venture capital or private equity investor, the term “Representative” (a) shall include any general partner of such Stockholder that is still affiliated with such Stockholder, but (b) shall exclude (i) any limited partner, (ii) any general partner that is no longer affiliated with such Stockholder, and (iii) any employees or other Representatives, in each case of clauses (i) to (iii), who do not have actual knowledge of the Transactions.

4.7 Notices of Certain Events. Each Stockholder shall notify Parent of any development occurring after the date hereof that causes, or that would reasonably be expected to cause, any breach of any of the representations and warranties of such Stockholder set forth in Article II.

5.8 Governing Law. This Agreement, and any dispute arising out of, relating to or in connection with this Agreement, shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the Laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to any choice or conflict of Law provision or rule (whether of the State of Delaware or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the Laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of Delaware.

5.9 Descriptive Headings. The descriptive headings herein are inserted for convenience of reference only and are not intended to be part of or to affect the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.

5.10 Parties in Interest. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure solely to the benefit of each party hereto, and nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to confer upon any other Person any rights or remedies of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of this Agreement.

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

5.12 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but all of which, taken together, shall constitute one and the same agreement.

Whenever the words “include,” “includes” or “including” are used in this Agreement they shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation.” The words describing the singular number shall include the plural and vice versa, words denoting either gender shall include both genders and words denoting natural persons shall include all Persons and vice versa. The phrases “the date of this Agreement,” “the date hereof,” “of even date herewith” and terms of similar import, shall be deemed to refer to the date set forth in the preamble to this Agreement. Any reference in this Agreement to a date or time shall be deemed to be such date or time in New York City, unless otherwise specified. The parties agree that they participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement, have been represented by counsel during the negotiation and execution of this Agreement and, therefore, waive the application of any Law or rule of construction providing that ambiguities in an agreement or other document will be construed against the party drafting such agreement or document.

5.15 Capacity as Stockholder. Each Stockholder signs this Agreement solely in such Stockholder’s capacity as a stockholder of the Company, and not, if applicable, in such Stockholder’s capacity as a director, officer or employee of the Company.
