ARTICLE III

EFFECT OF THE MERGER ON CAPITAL STOCK; EXCHANGE OF CERTIFICATES

Section 3.1 Effect on Securities. At the Effective Time (or such other time specified in this Section 3.1), by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the Company, Parent, Acquisition Sub or any holder of any securities of the Company or Acquisition Sub or any other Person:

(a) Expiration or Cancellation of Company Securities. Immediately prior to the Effective Time, all issued and outstanding Rights will expire in their entirety without any payment being made in respect thereof in accordance with the Rights Agreement Amendment. Each share of common stock, par value $0.00001 per share, of the Company (the “Company Common Stock”) held by the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company (including shares held as treasury stock) or held, directly or indirectly, by Parent or Acquisition Sub or any of their wholly owned Subsidiaries immediately prior to the Effective Time shall automatically be cancelled and retired and shall cease to exist as issued or outstanding shares, and no consideration or payment shall be delivered in exchange therefor or in respect thereof.

(b) Conversion of Company Securities. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, each share of Company Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than any shares cancelled pursuant to Section 3.1(a)) shall be converted into 0.1019 validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable Parent Shares (the “Merger Consideration” and such ratio, the “Exchange Ratio”). Each share of Company Common Stock to be converted into the Merger Consideration as provided in this Section 3.1(b) shall no longer be

issued or outstanding and shall automatically be cancelled and shall cease to exist, and the holders of certificates (the “Certificates”) or book-entry evidence of shares (“Book-Entry Evidence”) which immediately prior to the Effective Time represented such shares of Company Common Stock shall cease to have any rights with respect to such Company Common Stock other than the Merger Consideration therefor, including, upon surrender of such Certificates or Book-Entry Evidence in accordance with Section 3.2, pursuant to Section 3.6, cash in lieu of fractional Parent Shares, if any, into which such shares of Company Common Stock have been converted pursuant to this Section 3.1(b) (the “Fractional Share Consideration”), together with the amounts, if any, payable pursuant to Section 3.2(h) (the “Dividend Consideration”).

(c) Conversion of Acquisition Sub Capital Stock. At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the holder thereof, each share of common stock, $0.0001 par value per share, of Acquisition Sub issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall automatically be converted into and become one fully paid, non-assessable share of common stock, $0.0001 par value per share, of the Surviving Corporation and shall constitute the only issued or outstanding shares of capital stock of the Surviving Corporation.

(d) Adjustments. Without limiting the other provisions of this Agreement, if at any time during the period between the date of this Agreement and the Effective Time, any change in the number of outstanding shares of Company Common Stock or Parent Common Stock shall occur as a result of a reclassification, recapitalization, stock split (including a reverse stock split) or similar event, or combination, exchange or readjustment of shares, or any stock dividend with a record date during such period, the Exchange Ratio and the Merger Consideration (and any other similarly dependent items) shall be equitably adjusted to provide the same economic effect as contemplated by this Agreement prior to such event. Nothing in this Section 3.1(d) shall be construed to permit any party to take any action that is otherwise prohibited or restricted by any other provision of this Agreement.

Section 3.2 Payment for Securities; Exchange of Certificates.

(a) Designation of Exchange Agent; Deposit of Exchange Fund. No later than ten (10) days prior to the Effective Time, Parent shall, at its sole cost and expense, designate a reputable bank or trust company (the “Exchange Agent”) that is organized and doing business under the laws of the United States, the identity and the terms of appointment of which to be reasonably acceptable to the Company, to act as exchange agent for the payment of the Aggregate Merger Consideration and any Dividend Consideration, and shall enter into an agreement (the “Exchange Agent Agreement”) relating to the Exchange Agent’s responsibilities with respect thereto, in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Company. Parent shall deposit, or cause to be deposited with the Exchange Agent, (i) prior to the Effective Time, (A) evidence of Parent Shares issuable pursuant to Section 3.1(b) in book-entry form equal to the aggregate number of Parent Shares included in the Aggregate Merger Consideration (excluding any Fractional Share Consideration) and (B) cash in immediately available funds in an amount sufficient to pay the aggregate amount of cash included in the Fractional Share Consideration and (ii) as necessary from time to time after the Effective Time, if applicable, any Dividend Consideration (such evidence of Parent Shares in book-entry form and cash amounts, including any Fractional Share Consideration and Dividend Consideration, the “Exchange Fund”). In the event the Exchange Fund shall be insufficient to make the payments and exchanges contemplated by Section 3.1(b), Parent shall

promptly deposit, or cause to be deposited, additional funds or Parent Shares, as applicable, with the Exchange Agent in an amount which is equal to the deficiency in the amount required to make such payments and exchanges in full. Parent shall cause the Exchange Fund to be (A) held for the benefit of the holders of Company Common Stock and (B) applied promptly to making the payments and exchanges pursuant to Section 3.1(b). The Exchange Fund shall not be used for any purpose other than to fund payments or effect exchanges, as applicable, pursuant to Section 3.1, except as expressly provided for in this Agreement.

(b) Procedures for Exchange.

(i) Certificates. As promptly as reasonably practicable following the Effective Time and in any event not later than the second (2^nd) Business Day thereafter, the Surviving Corporation shall cause the Exchange Agent to mail to each holder of record of a Certificate that immediately prior to the Effective Time represented outstanding shares of Company Common Stock (A) a letter of transmittal, which shall specify that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to the Certificates shall pass, only upon proper delivery of the Certificates (or affidavit of loss in lieu thereof) to the Exchange Agent and which shall be in the form and have such other provisions as Parent and the Company may reasonably specify and (B) instructions for use in effecting the surrender of the Certificates in exchange for the Merger Consideration into which the number of shares of Company Common Stock previously represented by such Certificate shall have been converted pursuant to this Agreement (which instructions shall be in the form and have such other provisions as Parent and the Company may reasonably specify) along with any applicable Fractional Share Consideration and the Dividend Consideration.

(ii) Book-Entry Evidence. As promptly as reasonably practicable following the Effective Time and in any event not later than the second (2^nd) Business Day thereafter, the Surviving Corporation shall cause the Exchange Agent to mail to each holder of record of a Book-Entry Evidence not held through The Depository Trust Company (and to deliver to The Depository Trust Company, in the case of holders of Book-Entry Evidence held through The Depository Trust Company) that immediately prior to the Effective Time represented outstanding shares of Company Common Stock (A) a letter of transmittal, which shall be in the form and have such other provisions as Parent and the Company may reasonably specify, and (B) instructions for returning such letter of transmittal in exchange for the Merger Consideration into which the number of shares of Company Common Stock previously represented by such Book-Entry Evidence shall have been converted pursuant to this Agreement (which instructions shall be in the form and have such other provisions as Parent and the Company may reasonably specify) along with any applicable Fractional Share Consideration and the Dividend Consideration. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, no holder of Book-Entry Evidence shall be required to deliver a Certificate or, in the case of holders of Book-Entry Evidence held through The Depository Trust Company, an executed letter of transmittal to the Exchange Agent to receive the Merger Consideration, any applicable Fractional Share Consideration or any applicable Dividend Consideration, that such holder is entitled to receive pursuant to Section 3.1(b), Section 3.2(h) and Section 3.6.

(c) Timing of Exchange. Following the Effective Time, upon surrender of a Certificate (or affidavit of loss in lieu thereof) or Book-Entry Evidence for cancellation to the Exchange Agent, together with, in the case of Certificates and Book-Entry Evidence not held through The Depository Trust Company, a letter of transmittal duly completed and validly executed in accordance with the instructions thereto, or, in the case of Book-Entry Evidence held through The Depository Trust Company, receipt of an “agent’s message” by the Exchange Agent, and such other documents as may be required pursuant to such instructions, the holder of such Certificate or Book-Entry Evidence, in exchange for each share of Company Common Stock formerly represented by such Certificate or Book-Entry Evidence, shall be credited with the Merger Consideration in the stock ledger and other appropriate books and records of Parent and shall be entitled to receive any applicable Fractional Share Consideration and any applicable Dividend Consideration, and the Certificate (or affidavit of loss in lieu thereof) or Book-Entry Evidence so surrendered shall be forthwith cancelled. The Exchange Agent Agreement shall provide that the Exchange Agent shall accept such Certificates (or affidavit of loss in lieu thereof) or Book-Entry Evidence upon compliance with such reasonable terms and conditions as the Exchange Agent may impose to effect an orderly exchange thereof in accordance with normal exchange practices. No interest shall be paid or accrued for the benefit of holders of the Certificates or Book-Entry Evidence on any amounts payable upon the surrender of the Certificates or Book-Entry Evidence.

(d) Termination of Exchange Fund. Any portion of the Exchange Fund which remains undistributed to the holders of the Certificates or Book-Entry Evidence for one (1) year after the Effective Time shall be delivered to the Surviving Corporation, upon written demand, and any such holders prior to the Merger who have not theretofore complied with this Article III shall thereafter look only to the Surviving Corporation as a general creditor thereof for payment of their claims for Merger Consideration, any applicable Fractional Share Consideration and any applicable Dividend Consideration in respect thereof, without any interest thereon, subject to abandoned property, escheat or similar Law.

(e) No Liability. None of Parent, Acquisition Sub, the Company, the Surviving Corporation or the Exchange Agent shall be liable to any Person in respect of any cash held in the Exchange Fund delivered to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Law. The Merger Consideration will become the property of Parent or the Surviving Corporation to the extent it would otherwise escheat to the extent permitted by Law.

(f) Investment of Exchange Fund. The Exchange Agent Agreement shall provide that the Exchange Agent shall invest any cash included in the Exchange Fund as directed by Parent or, after the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation; provided that (i) no such investment (including any losses thereon) shall relieve Parent or the Exchange Agent from making the payments required by this Article III, and following any losses (or any diminishment of the Exchange Fund for any other reason below the level required to make prompt payment in full of the aggregate amounts required to be paid pursuant to the terms hereof), Parent shall promptly provide additional amounts to the Exchange Agent for the benefit of the holders of Company Common Stock in the amount of such losses, (ii) no such investment shall have maturities that could prevent or delay payments to be made pursuant to this Agreement and (iii) all such investments shall be in short-term obligations of the United States of America with maturities of no more than thirty (30) days or guaranteed by the United States of America and backed by the full faith and credit of the United States of America.

(g) Withholding. Parent, Acquisition Sub, the Exchange Agent and the Surviving Corporation, as applicable, shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement such amounts as it is required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under applicable Law.

(h) Dividends or Distributions.

Subject to the provisions of Section 3.1(d), no dividends or other distributions with respect to Parent Shares with a record date after the Effective Time shall be paid to the holder of any unsurrendered Certificate or unexchanged Book-Entry Evidence with respect to the Parent Shares issuable to such holder hereunder, and all such dividends and other distributions, if any, shall be paid by Parent to the Exchange Agent and shall be included in the Exchange Fund, in each case until the surrender of such Certificate (or affidavit of loss in lieu thereof) or Book-Entry Evidence in accordance with this Agreement. Subject to applicable Laws and the provisions of Section 3.1(d), following surrender of any such Certificate (or affidavit of loss in lieu thereof) or Book-Entry Evidence, there shall be issued and/or paid to the holder thereof, without interest, (i) promptly following the time of such surrender or exchange, the amount of dividends or other distributions with a record date after the Effective Time and with a payment date prior to such surrender or exchange with respect to the Parent Shares to which such holder is entitled pursuant to this Agreement and (ii) at the appropriate payment date, the amount of dividends or other distributions with a record date after the Effective Time but prior to such surrender or exchange and with a payment date subsequent to such surrender or exchange payable with respect to such Parent Shares.

Section 3.3 Company Equity Awards.

(a) Company Options.

(i) At the Effective Time, each Company Option (whether or not vested) that is outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, other than each Company Option that is held by an individual who, as of immediately prior to the Closing, is no longer an employee or other service provider to the Company or its Subsidiaries (a “Former Employee Option”), shall, automatically and without any required action on the part of the holder thereof, be converted into and thereafter evidence an option to acquire Parent Shares with respect to that number of Parent Shares that is equal to the product of (x) the number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to such Company Option as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, multiplied by (y) the Exchange Ratio, rounded down to the nearest whole number of Parent Shares (after such conversion, “Rollover Options”), at an exercise price per Parent Share equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (A) the per share exercise price of Company Options by (B) the Exchange Ratio, rounded up to the nearest whole cent.

(ii) At the Effective Time, each Former Employee Option (whether or not vested) that is outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall, automatically and without any required action on the part of the holder thereof, be cancelled and converted into the right to receive a number of Parent Shares equal to the product of (x) the number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to such Former Employee Option as of immediately prior to the Effective Time and (y) (A) the excess, if any, of the Merger Consideration Value over the exercise price per share of Company Common Stock applicable to such Former Employee Option, divided by (B) the Merger Consideration Value (the “Former Employee Option Consideration”). Parent shall, or shall cause the Surviving Company to, deliver the Former Employee Option Consideration to each holder of Former Employee Options, less any required withholding Taxes and without interest, within ten (10) Business Days following the Effective Time; provided that any such withholding Taxes required to be paid by or collected on behalf of such holder shall be satisfied by retaining a number of Parent Shares having a fair market value (determined by reference to the closing price of a Parent Share on the Closing Date) equal to the minimum statutory amount required to be withheld, rounded up to the nearest whole Parent Share.

(b) Treatment of Company RSUs. At the Effective Time, each Company RSU that is outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, other than each Company RSU held by a non-employee director of the Company (a “Director RSU”), shall, automatically and without any required action on the part of the holder thereof, be converted into and thereafter evidence an award of restricted stock units (after such conversion, a “Rollover RSU Award”) relating to a number of Parent Shares that is equal to the product of (i) the number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to such Company RSU award as of immediately prior to the Effective Time (including any shares of Company Common Stock in respect of dividend equivalent units credited thereon), multiplied by (ii) the Exchange Ratio, rounded to the nearest whole number of Parent Shares.

(c) Treatment of Director RSUs. At the Effective Time, each Director RSU that is outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall, automatically and without any required actions on the part of the holder thereof, vest (if unvested) and be cancelled and converted into the Merger Consideration per each share of Company Common Stock subject to each such Director RSU (including any shares of Company Common Stock in respect of dividend equivalent units credited thereon) as provided in Section 3.1(b) (the “Director RSU Consideration”). Parent shall, or cause the Surviving Corporation to, deliver the Director RSU Consideration to each holder of Director RSUs within ten (10) Business Days following the Effective Time. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, with respect to any Director RSU that constitutes nonqualified deferred compensation subject to Section 409A of the Code and that the Company determines prior to the Effective Time is not eligible to be terminated in accordance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-3(j)(4)(ix)(B), such payment will be made at the earliest time permitted under the applicable Company Equity Plan that will not trigger a Tax or penalty under Section 409A of the Code.

(d) Treatment of Company PSUs. At the Effective Time, each Company PSU that is outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall, automatically and without any required action on the part of the holder thereof, be converted into and thereafter evidence an award of time-based stock units (after such conversion, a “Rollover PSU Award” and together with the Rollover Options and Rollover RSU Awards, the “Rollover Equity Awards”) relating to a number of Parent Shares that is equal to the product of (i) the number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to such Company PSU award based on the attainment of the applicable performance metrics at the greater of the target or actual level of performance, as determined by the Administrator (as defined in the applicable Company Equity Plan) consistent with past practice as of immediately prior to the Effective Time (including any shares of Company Common Stock in respect of dividend equivalent units credited thereon), multiplied by (ii) the Exchange Ratio, rounded to the nearest whole number of Parent Shares.

(e) Certain Actions of the Parties. Following the Effective Time, each Rollover Equity Award shall be subject to the same terms and conditions as had applied to the corresponding Company Equity Award as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, except that any performance metrics applicable to such Company Equity Awards shall no longer apply from and after the Effective Time. Prior to the Effective Time, the parties shall take all actions that Parent and the Company determine are reasonably necessary or desirable to effectuate the provisions of this Section 3.3, including obtaining board or committee consents or adopting or assuming a Company Equity Plan by Parent and, if requested by Parent, terminating any Company Equity Plan effective as of the Effective Time. At or prior to the Effective Time, Parent shall take all actions reasonably necessary to reserve for issuance a number of Parent Shares in respect of each Rollover Equity Award. At or prior to the Effective Time, Parent shall file a registration statement on Form S-8 with respect to the Parent Shares subject to each Rollover Equity Award held by individuals who are providing services to Parent or its subsidiaries as of the Closing and Parent shall include on the Form S-4, the Parent Shares subject to each Rollover Equity Award (other than a Rollover Option) held by individuals who are not providing services to Parent or its subsidiaries as of the Closing. The Company shall assist Parent in the preparation of such registration statement and provide Parent with all information reasonably requested by Parent for such preparation.

(f) Treatment of Company ESPP. As soon as practicable following the date of this Agreement, the Company shall take all actions as may be required to provide that (i) the Offering Period (as defined in the Company ESPP) in effect as of the date hereof shall be the final Offering Period (such period, the “Final Offering Period”) and no further Offering Period shall commence pursuant to the Company ESPP after the date hereof, and (ii) each individual participating in the Final Offering Period on the date of this Agreement shall not be permitted to (A) increase his or her payroll contribution rate pursuant to the Company ESPP from the rate in effect when the Final Offering Period commenced or (B) make separate non-payroll contributions to the Company ESPP on or following the date of this Agreement. Prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall take all actions that may be necessary to (x) cause the Final Offering Period, to the extent that it would otherwise be outstanding at the Effective Time, to be terminated no later than ten (10) Business Days prior to the date on which the Effective Time occurs; (y) make any pro rata adjustments that may be necessary to reflect the Final Offering Period, but otherwise treat the Final Offering Period as a fully effective and completed Offering Period for all purposes pursuant to the Company ESPP; and (z) cause the exercise (as of no later than ten (10) Business Days prior to the

date on which the Effective Time occurs) of each outstanding purchase right pursuant to the Company ESPP. On such exercise date, the Company shall apply the funds credited as of such date pursuant to the Company ESPP within each participant’s payroll withholding account to the purchase of whole shares of Company Common Stock in accordance with the terms of the Company ESPP, and such shares of Company Common Stock shall be entitled to the Merger Consideration in accordance with Section 3.1(b). As promptly as practicable following the purchase of shares of Company Common Stock in accordance with the preceding sentence, the Company shall return to each participant the funds, if any, that remain in such participant’s account after such purchase. Immediately prior to and effective as of the Effective Time (but subject to the consummation of the Merger), the Company shall terminate the Company ESPP. To the extent required by the Company ESPP, the Company shall provide notice to all Company ESPP participants describing the treatment of the Company ESPP pursuant to this Section 3.3(f).

Section 3.4 Lost Certificates. If any Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, then upon the making of an affidavit, in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Parent and the Company, of that fact by the Person claiming such Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed and, if reasonably required by the Surviving Corporation, the posting by such Person of a bond, in such reasonable and customary amount as the Surviving Corporation may direct, as indemnity against any claim that may be made against it with respect to such Certificate, the Exchange Agent will issue in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate, the Merger Consideration, any applicable Fractional Share Consideration and any applicable Dividend Consideration to which the holder thereof is entitled pursuant to this Article III.

Section 3.5 Transfers; No Further Ownership Rights. From and after the Effective Time, there shall be no registration of transfers on the stock transfer books of the Company of shares of Company Common Stock that were outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time. If Certificates or Book-Entry Evidence are presented to the Surviving Corporation, Parent or Exchange Agent for transfer following the Effective Time, they shall be cancelled against delivery of the applicable Merger Consideration (and, as applicable, any Fractional Share Consideration and any Dividend Consideration) as provided for in Section 3.1(b) for each share of Company Common Stock formerly represented by such Certificates or Book-Entry Evidence. Payment of the Merger Consideration (and, as applicable, any Fractional Share Consideration and any Dividend Consideration) in accordance with the terms of this Article III, and, if applicable, any unclaimed dividends upon the surrender of Certificates, shall be deemed to have been paid in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to the shares of Company Common Stock formerly represented by such Certificates or Book-Entry Evidence.

Section 3.6 Fractional Shares. No fractional Parent Shares shall be issued in connection with the Merger, no certificate or scrip representing fractional Parent Shares shall be issued upon the surrender for exchange of Certificates or Book-Entry Evidence, and such fractional share interests shall not entitle the owner thereof to vote or to any other rights of a stockholder of Parent. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, each holder of shares of Company Common Stock converted pursuant to the Merger who would otherwise have been entitled to receive a fraction of a Parent Share (after aggregating all shares represented by the Certificates and Book-Entry Evidence delivered by such holder) shall receive, in lieu thereof and upon surrender of any right thereto, cash, rounded to the nearest whole cent and without interest, in an amount equal to such fraction, multiplied by the volume weighted average per-share price (as reported by

Bloomberg), rounded to the nearest cent, of Parent Shares on Nasdaq during the ten (10) full trading days ending on (and including) the trading day immediately preceding the Closing Date. As soon as practicable after the Effective Time and the determination of the aggregate Fractional Share Consideration, the Exchange Agent shall make available the Fractional Share Consideration to such holders, subject to and in accordance with Section 3.2.

(a) Parent and the Company shall cooperate in preparing, and as promptly as reasonably practicable (and shall use their respective reasonable best efforts to, within forty-five (45) days) after the date hereof, file the Proxy Statement and the Form S-4. The Proxy Statement will be included in and will constitute a part of the Form S-4. Subject to Section 6.5 and the other applicable terms of this Agreement, the Proxy Statement shall reflect the Company Recommendation and also include (and the Company represents that it will have obtained at the relevant time all necessary consents of Evercore to permit the Company to include in the Proxy Statement), in its entirety, the Fairness Opinion, together with a summary thereof. Parent shall use its reasonable best efforts, and the Company shall cooperate (including by causing its Subsidiaries, Representatives and controlled Affiliates to cooperate) with Parent, to have the Form S-4 declared effective by the SEC as promptly as practicable and to keep the Form S-4 effective through the Closing in order to consummate the Merger and the other transactions contemplated hereby. Parent shall also use its reasonable best efforts to take any action required to be taken under any applicable state securities laws in connection with the issuance and reservation of Parent Shares in the Merger, and the Company shall furnish all information concerning the Company, its Subsidiaries and any of their respective stockholders, members or other holders of a beneficial interest in their equity interests, as may be reasonably requested in connection with any such action. To the extent not prohibited by Law, (i) each of Parent and the Company agrees to furnish to the other party all information concerning itself, its Subsidiaries, officers, directors, managers, stockholders, and other equityholders and information regarding such other matters as may be reasonably necessary or advisable or as may be reasonably requested in connection with the Proxy Statement and Form S-4, (ii) each of Parent or the Company shall, as promptly as practicable after receipt thereof, provide the other party with copies of any written comments from the SEC or advise of any oral comments or any request from the SEC for amendments or supplements to the Proxy Statement or the Form S-4, and (iii) Parent and the Company shall cooperate and provide each other with a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on any amendment or supplement to the Proxy Statement and the Form S-4 prior to filing such document, and shall give reasonable and good faith consideration to any comments thereon made by the other party or its counsel. Subject to Section 6.5 and, for the avoidance of doubt, except in the event of an Adverse Recommendation Change or Superior Proposal, no amendment or supplement (including by incorporation by reference) to the Proxy Statement or the Form S-4 shall be made without providing the other party a reasonable opportunity to review and comment thereon and without the parties consulting and cooperating with one another, and considering in good faith the view of one another in doing so (provided that, without limiting the foregoing, no amendment or supplement to the Proxy Statement or the Form S-4 shall be made without the approval of both the Company and Parent, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). If, at any time prior to the Effective Time, any information relating to Parent or the Company, or any of their respective Affiliates, officers or directors, is discovered by Parent or the Company and such information should be set forth in an amendment or supplement to any of the Form S-4 or the Proxy Statement 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 light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, the party hereto discovering such information shall promptly notify the other parties and, to the extent required by Law, an appropriate amendment or supplement describing such information shall be promptly filed with the SEC and disseminated to the stockholders of the Company or Parent, as applicable, in accordance with applicable Law.

(b) Parent shall advise the Company, promptly after receipt of notice thereof, of the time of effectiveness of the Form S-4, and the issuance of any stop order relating thereto or the suspension of the qualification of Parent Shares for offering or sale in any jurisdiction, and each of the Company and Parent shall use its reasonable best efforts to have any such stop order or suspension lifted, reversed or otherwise terminated. The Company shall cause the Proxy Statement to be mailed to the Company’s stockholders as of the record date established for the Stockholders’ Meeting as promptly as practicable after the later of the date on which the Form S-4 is declared effective under the Securities Act and such record date. If, at any time prior to the Stockholders’ Meeting, any information relating to the Company, Parent, Acquisition Sub or any of their respective Affiliates, officers or directors is discovered by the Company, Parent or Acquisition Sub which should be set forth in an amendment or supplement to the Proxy Statement or the Form S-4, so that the Proxy Statement or the Form S-4 (or any amendment or supplement thereto) shall not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they are made, not misleading, the party that discovers such information shall promptly notify the other parties thereof, and an appropriate amendment or supplement containing such information shall be filed with the SEC and, to the extent required by applicable Law, disseminated to the Company’s stockholders.

(c) The Company shall duly take all lawful action to call, give notice of, convene and hold a meeting of its stockholders, for the purpose of voting upon the approval of the Merger and holding the Company Stockholder Advisory Vote (the “Stockholders’ Meeting”) as soon as practicable following the declaration of effectiveness of the Form S-4 by the SEC (and in any event within thirty-five (35) days after such declaration). The record date for the Stockholders’ Meeting shall be determined by the Company with prior consultation with Parent; provided, that the Company shall not change the date of (or the record date for), postpone or adjourn the Stockholders’ Meeting without the consent of Parent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned); provided, however, that the Company shall, to the extent permitted by Law (i) be entitled to postpone or adjourn the Stockholders’ Meeting on one or more occasions without the prior consent of Parent to (A) allow reasonable additional time for any supplemental or amended disclosure which the Company has determined in good faith is necessary under applicable Law and for such supplemental or amended disclosure to be disseminated and reviewed by the Company’s stockholders prior to the Stockholders’ Meeting (but in any event, shall hold the Stockholders’ Meeting as soon as practicable) or (B) up to fifteen (15) Business Days to allow additional solicitation of votes in order to obtain the Requisite Stockholder Approval or (ii) postpone or adjourn once for up to fifteen (15) Business Days (or such longer period agreed to in writing by the Company) the Stockholders’ Meeting if so requested by Parent, if, on the date for which the Stockholders’ Meeting is then scheduled, the Company has not received proxies representing a sufficient number of shares of Company Common Stock to obtain the Requisite Stockholder Approval, whether or not a quorum is present.

(d) The board of directors of the Company shall, except in the case of an Adverse Recommendation Change made in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, provide the Company Recommendation, and, subject to Section 6.5, shall use reasonable best efforts to solicit proxies in favor of the Requisite Stockholder Approval. Unless this Agreement is terminated in accordance with Article VIII, the Company agrees that its obligations pursuant to this Section 6.2 shall not be affected by the commencement, public proposal, public disclosure or communication to the Company or any other person of any Competing Proposal or the making of any Adverse Recommendation Change. The Company shall, upon the reasonable request of Parent, during the last seven (7) Business Days prior to the date of the Stockholders’ Meeting, request its proxy solicitor to advise Parent at least one (1) time each Business Day as to the aggregate tally of proxies received by the Company with respect to the Requisite Stockholder Approval. Without the prior written consent of Parent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), and except as required by applicable Law or the rules and regulations of the NYSE, the adoption of this Agreement and the Company Stockholder Advisory Vote shall be the only matters (other than procedural matters) that the Company shall propose to be acted on by the stockholders of the Company at the Stockholders’ Meeting.

In taking the foregoing actions, each of the Company and Parent shall act reasonably and as promptly as practicable. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, obtaining any Third Party Consents or waivers pursuant to Section 6.3(a)(ii) above or otherwise shall not be a condition to the obligations of any party to consummate the Merger.

(b) Without limiting anything in this Section 6.3, (i) none of the parties hereto or their respective Affiliates shall extend any waiting period or comparable period under the HSR Act or enter into any agreement with any Governmental Authority not to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby, except with the prior written consent of the other parties hereto and (ii) Parent and Acquisition Sub agree to take (and to cause their Affiliates to take) promptly any and all steps reasonably necessary or reasonably advisable or as may be required by any Governmental Authority to avoid or eliminate each and every impediment and obtain all Consents under any Antitrust Laws that may be required by any Governmental Authority so as to enable the parties to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including the Merger, including committing to and effecting, by consent decree, hold separate order, trust or otherwise, (A) terminating, amending or assigning existing relationships and contractual rights and obligations, (B) requiring Parent, Acquisition Sub, the Company or any of their respective Affiliates to grant any right or commercial or other accommodation to, or enter into any material commercial contractual or other commercial relationship with, any Third Party and (C) imposing limitations on Parent, Acquisition Sub, the Company or any of their respective Affiliates with respect to how they own, retain, conduct or operate all or any portion of their respective businesses or assets (any or all of (A)-(C) above a “Remedy”); provided that nothing in this Section 6.3(b) shall require Parent or Acquisition Sub to commit to and/or effect, by consent decree, hold separate order, trust or otherwise, any Remedy that, except as set forth on Section 6.3(b) of the Parent Disclosure Letter (x) would require the selling, divesting, licensing or otherwise disposing of, or holding separate and agreeing to sell, divest or otherwise dispose of, any assets of Parent, Acquisition Sub, the Company or any of their respective Affiliates or (y) would require Parent or Acquisition Sub to license, provide access to, distribute, disclose, or otherwise would limit the freedom of action of Parent or Acquisition Sub with respect to any data, assets, operations, businesses, product lines or interests therein of Parent, Acquisition Sub, or any of their respective Affiliates or the Company, or any of its respective Affiliates. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 6.3 to the contrary, neither Parent nor Acquisition Sub will be required to take any action, nor shall the Company or its Subsidiaries take any such action (except at the request of Parent), in each case contemplated by clause (ii) above unless such action is conditioned upon the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

letter of intent, memorandum of understanding, merger agreement or other similar agreement, arrangement or understanding relating to any Competing Proposal (other than an Acceptable Confidentiality Agreement), (iv) submit to the stockholders of the Company for their approval any Competing Proposal or (v) grant a waiver of or terminate (to the extent not automatically waived or terminated upon the announcement of, or entry into, this Agreement) any “standstill” or similar obligation of any Third Party with respect to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to allow such Third Party to submit a Competing Proposal; provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall be permitted to grant a waiver of or terminate (to the extent not automatically waived or terminated upon the announcement of, or entry into, this Agreement) any “standstill” or similar obligation of any Third Party with respect to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to allow such Third Party to make a Competing Proposal if failure to so waive or terminate would be inconsistent with the Company’s directors’ fiduciary duties to the stockholders of the Company under applicable Law.

(b) The Company (i) shall as promptly as reasonably practicable (and in any case within thirty-six (36) hours of receipt by the Company or any of its Representatives) (i) provide Parent notice of the receipt of (A) any Competing Proposal, which notice shall include a complete and unredacted copy of such Competing Proposal and (B) any material inquiries, proposals or offers received by, any requests for information from, or any discussions or negotiations sought to be initiated or continued with, the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any of its or its Subsidiaries’ Representatives concerning a Competing Proposal, or any proposal that would reasonably be expected to constitute or lead to a Competing Proposal, and disclose the identity of the other party (or parties) and the terms (including any amendments thereto) of such inquiry, offer, proposal, request, discussion or negotiation and, in the case of written materials, provide copies of such materials, (ii) shall substantially concurrently (and in any case within thirty-six (36) hours) make available to Parent all information, including complete and unredacted copies of all written materials, provided by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or its or its Subsidiaries’ Representatives to such party but not previously made available to Parent and (iii) shall keep Parent informed on a prompt basis (and, in any case, within thirty-six (36) hours of any significant development, discussions or negotiations) of the status and details (including amendments and proposed amendments) of any such Competing Proposal or other inquiry, offer, proposal, request, discussion or negotiation (which shall include copies of all drafts and final versions (and any comments thereon) of agreements (including schedules and exhibits thereto) relating to such Competing Proposal exchanged between the Company or its Subsidiaries or any of its or its Subsidiaries’ Representatives in each case thereof, on the one hand, and the Person (or any of its Representatives) making such Competing Proposal, on the other hand).

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, at any time prior to the receipt of the Requisite Stockholder Approval, in the event that the Company receives a Competing Proposal from any Person, (i) the Company and its Representatives may contact such Person to clarify the terms and conditions thereof and (ii) the Company and its board of directors and their respective Representatives may engage in negotiations or substantive discussions with, or furnish any information and other access to, any Person making such Competing Proposal and its Representatives or potential sources of financing if the Company’s board of directors determines in good faith (after consultation with the Company’s legal counsel and financial advisors) that (A) such Competing Proposal either constitutes a Superior Proposal or could reasonably be expected to result in a Superior Proposal and (B) the failure to take any of the

foregoing actions would be inconsistent with the Company’s directors’ fiduciary duties to the stockholders of the Company under applicable Law; provided that (i) prior to furnishing any material nonpublic information concerning the Company or its Subsidiaries, the Company receives from such Person, to the extent such Person is not already subject to a confidentiality agreement with the Company, an executed confidentiality agreement with such Person containing confidentiality terms that are not materially less favorable in the aggregate to the Company than those contained in the Confidentiality Agreement, it being understood that such confidentiality agreement need not contain a standstill provision or otherwise restrict the making, or amendment, of a Competing Proposal (and related communications) to the Company or the board of directors of the Company (such confidentiality agreement, an “Acceptable Confidentiality Agreement”) and (ii) any such material nonpublic information so furnished in writing shall be promptly made available to Parent to the extent it was not previously made available to Parent or its Representatives.

(d) Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, the board of directors of the Company shall not (i) (A) withdraw, withhold, qualify or modify, or propose publicly to withdraw, withhold, qualify or modify, in a manner adverse to Parent or Acquisition Sub, the Company Recommendation or (B) adopt, approve, authorize, declare advisable, endorse or recommend, or propose publicly to adopt, approve, authorize, declare advisable, endorse or recommend, to the Company’s stockholders any Competing Proposal, (C) fail to publicly recommend against any Competing Proposal or fail to publicly reaffirm the Company Recommendation, in each case within ten (10) Business Days after Parent so requests in writing following a publicly announced Competing Proposal, (D) fail to recommend against any Competing Proposal subject to Regulation 14D under the Exchange Act in a Solicitation/Recommendation Statement on Schedule 14D-9 within ten (10) Business Days after the commencement of such Competing Proposal, or (E) fail to include the recommendation of the Company’s board of directors in favor of approval and adoption of this Agreement and the Merger in the Proxy Statement (any action described in this clause (i) being referred to as an “Adverse Recommendation Change”) or (ii) adopt, approve or recommend, or allow the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective Representatives to execute, approve or enter into, any letter of intent, memorandum of understanding, joint venture agreement, partnership agreement, share or asset purchase agreement, definitive merger agreement, or any other similar agreement (A) with respect to any Competing Proposal or (B) that would reasonably be expected to lead to a Competing Proposal (other than an Acceptable Confidentiality Agreement as permitted by and in compliance with Section 6.5(c)).

(e) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, at any time prior to receipt of the Requisite Stockholder Approval, the board of directors of the Company may (subject to compliance with the other provisions of this Section 6.5(e)) (x) make an Adverse Recommendation Change if the board of directors of the Company (A) determines that an Intervening Event has occurred and is continuing and (B) determines in good faith (after consultation with its legal counsel and financial advisors) that the failure to take such action would be inconsistent with the Company’s directors’ fiduciary duties under applicable Law or (y) if the Company has received a bona fide written Competing Proposal that the board of directors of the Company (A) has determined in good faith (after consultation with its legal counsel and financial advisors) constitutes a Superior Proposal and (B) determines in good faith (after consultation with its legal counsel and financial advisors) that the failure to take such action would be inconsistent

with the directors’ fiduciary duties under applicable Law, make an Adverse Recommendation Change or authorize, adopt or approve such Superior Proposal and cause or permit the Company to enter into a definitive agreement with respect to such Superior Proposal substantially concurrently with the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1(c)(ii) and the prior or substantially concurrent payment of the Termination Fee provided pursuant to Section 8.3; provided, however, that (x) no Adverse Recommendation Change may be made and (y) no termination of this Agreement pursuant to this Section 6.5(e) and Section 8.1(c)(ii) may be effected, in each case until after the fifth (5th) Business Day following Parent’s receipt of a written notice from the Company advising Parent that the board of directors of the Company intends to make an Adverse Recommendation Change (a “Notice of Adverse Recommendation”) or terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 6.5(e) and Section 8.1(c)(ii) (a “Notice of Superior Proposal” and such five (5) Business Day period, the “Company Notice Period”) and specifying in reasonable detail the reasons therefor, including, if the basis of the proposed action by the Company’s board of directors is an Intervening Event pursuant to Section 6.5(e)(x), the material facts and circumstances related to such Intervening Event, or if the basis of the proposed action by the Company’s board of directors is a Superior Proposal pursuant to Section 6.5(e)(y), the terms and conditions of any such Superior Proposal. During the Company Notice Period, if requested by Parent, (1) the Company shall engage in good faith negotiations with Parent regarding any adjustment or amendment to this Agreement or any other agreement proposed by Parent that would obviate the need to effect an Adverse Recommendation Change or cause such Competing Proposal to no longer constitute a Superior Proposal and (2) in connection with determining whether to take (and prior to taking) any actions pursuant to Section 6.5(e)(x) or Section 6.5(e)(y), as applicable, the board of directors of the Company shall consider in good faith any proposed adjustments or amendments to this Agreement (including a change to the price terms hereof) and any other agreements that may be proposed in writing by Parent no later than 11:59 p.m., New York City time, on the last day of the Company Notice Period. Any material change in facts with respect to such Intervening Event or amendment to the financial terms or any other material amendment of such Superior Proposal shall, in each case, require a new Notice of Adverse Recommendation or Notice of Superior Proposal, as applicable, and the Company shall be required to comply again with the requirements of this Section 6.5(e) with respect to such new written notice; provided that the new Company Notice Period shall be three (3) Business Days (but in no event shorter than the original five (5) Business Day Company Notice Period).

(f) Nothing in this Agreement shall restrict the Company or the board of directors of the Company from taking or disclosing a position contemplated by Rules 14d-9 or 14e-2(a) under the Exchange Act, or otherwise making disclosure to comply with applicable Law with regard to a Competing Proposal (it being agreed that a “stop, look and listen” communication by the board of directors to the Company’s stockholders pursuant to Rule 14d-9(f) under the Exchange Act or a factually accurate public statement by the Company that describes the Company’s receipt of a Competing Proposal and the operation of this Agreement with respect thereto shall not be deemed to be an Adverse Recommendation Change or give rise to a Parent termination right pursuant to Section 8.1(d)(ii)).

(g) For purposes of this Agreement:

(i) “Competing Proposal” shall mean any bona fide written proposal or offer made by any Person (other than Parent, Acquisition Sub or any of their respective controlled Affiliates) or group of Persons as defined in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act that, for purposes of evaluating whether such Competing Proposal may constitute a Superior Proposal, did not result from a material breach of this Agreement, to purchase or otherwise acquire, directly or indirectly, in one transaction or a series of transactions, (A) beneficial ownership (as defined under Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act) of more than twenty percent (20%) of any class of equity securities of the Company pursuant to a merger, consolidation or other business combination, sale of shares of capital stock, tender offer (including a self-tender offer), exchange offer, liquidation, dissolution or similar transaction or (B) any one or more assets or businesses of the Company and its Subsidiaries that constitute more than twenty percent (20%) of the revenues, earnings or assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole.

(ii) “Intervening Event” shall mean any change, event, effect, fact, condition or circumstance (other than any change, event, effect, fact, condition or circumstance the principal cause of which is a material breach of this Agreement by the Company) that (A) was not known to and not reasonably foreseeable by the board of directors of the Company as of or prior to the date of this Agreement and which becomes known to the board of directors of the Company following the date of this Agreement, (B) does not involve or relate to a Competing Proposal or Parent or any of its Subsidiaries and (C) is material to the Company and its Subsidiaries; provided, that none of the following, whether alone or in combination, shall constitute an Intervening Event or otherwise be taken into account in determining whether there has been an Intervening Event: (1) any Competing Proposal, (2) the fact, in and of itself, that the Company or Parent meets or exceeds (or fails to meet or exceed) internal budgets, plans or forecasts of its revenues, earnings or other financial performance or results of operations (it being understood that the underlying causes of (or contributors to) such performance that are not otherwise excluded from the definition of “Intervening Event” may be taken into account) and (3) changes in and of itself in the Company’s or Parent’s stock price or the trading volume of the Company’s or Parent’s stock (it being understood that the underlying causes of (or contributors to) such changes that are not otherwise excluded from the definition of “Intervening Event” may be taken into account).

(iii) “Superior Proposal” shall mean a bona fide written Competing Proposal (with all percentages in the definition of Competing Proposal increased to fifty percent (50%)) made by a Third Party that did not result from a material breach of this Agreement and that the board of directors of the Company determines in good faith, after consultation with its legal counsel and financial advisors and taking into account at the time of determination all relevant circumstances, including the various legal, financial and regulatory aspects or conditions of such Competing Proposal, (A) that is reasonably likely to be consummated if accepted and (B) that contains terms more favorable to the Company’s stockholders, from a financial point of view, than the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (including any changes to the terms of this Agreement committed to by Parent to the Company in writing in response to such Competing Proposal under the provisions of Section 6.5(e)).

Section 6.6 Directors’ and Officers’ Indemnification and Insurance.

(a) Parent and Acquisition Sub agree that all rights to exculpation and indemnification, contribution and advancement of expenses for facts, events, acts or omissions occurring at or prior to the Effective Time, whether asserted or claimed prior to, at or after the Effective Time (including any matters arising in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby), now existing in favor of the current or former directors or officers of the Company or its Subsidiaries, or any person serving at the request of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries as a director or officer (or the functional equivalent) of another Person (the “D&O Indemnified Parties”), as the case may be, as provided in their respective organizational documents as in effect on the date of this Agreement, shall survive the Merger and shall continue in full force and effect for a period of six (6) years from the Effective Time (it being agreed that after the Closing such rights shall be mandatory rather than permissive). For a period of six (6) years from the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation shall (and Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to) indemnify, defend and hold harmless, and advance expenses to D&O Indemnified Parties with respect to all acts or omissions by them in their capacities as such at any time prior to the Effective Time (including any matters arising in connection with this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby), to the fullest extent permitted by the organizational documents of the Company or its Subsidiaries as in effect on the date of this Agreement and as would be permitted by applicable Law; provided, however, that all rights to indemnification in respect of any action pending or asserted or any claim made within such period shall continue until the disposition of such action or resolution of such claim. Parent shall cause the certificate of incorporation, bylaws or other organizational documents of the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries to contain provisions with respect to exculpation, indemnification, advancement of expenses and limitation of director, officer and employee (or comparable) liability that are no less favorable to the D&O Indemnified Parties than those set forth in the Company’s and its Subsidiaries’ organizational documents as of the date hereof, which provisions thereafter shall not, for a period of six (6) years from the Effective Time, be amended, repealed or otherwise modified in any manner that would adversely affect the rights thereunder of the D&O Indemnified Parties.

(b) Without limiting the foregoing, Parent shall (and Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to) (i) indemnify, defend and hold harmless, and advance expenses to, the D&O Indemnified Parties with respect to all facts, events, acts or omissions by them in their capacities as such at any time prior to and including the Effective Time (including any matters arising in connection with this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby), to the fullest extent that the Company or its Subsidiaries would be permitted by applicable Law; and (ii) pay in advance of the final disposition of any Action against any D&O Indemnified Party the expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) of any D&O Indemnified Party upon receipt, if required by the DGCL, the Surviving Corporation’s organizational documents or any applicable indemnification agreement, of a written undertaking by him or her or on his or her behalf to repay the amount paid or reimbursed if it is ultimately determined that such D&O Indemnified Party is not permitted to be indemnified under applicable Law. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 6.6(b) or elsewhere in this Agreement, Parent shall not (and Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation not to) settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment or otherwise seek termination with respect to any Action, unless such settlement, compromise, consent or termination includes an unconditional release of all of the D&O Indemnified Parties covered by the Action from all liability arising out of such Action.

(c) If the Tail Coverage described below is not obtained or available, for at least six (6) years after the Effective Time, (i) Parent shall, and shall cause the Surviving Corporation and its other Subsidiaries to, maintain in full force and effect the coverage provided by the existing directors’ and officers’ liability insurance, employment practices liability insurance and fiduciary liability insurance in effect as of the Closing Date and maintained by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, as applicable (the “Existing D&O Insurance Policies”), or provide substitute policies (with insurance carriers having an A.M. Best financial strength rating of least an “A”) for the Company and the D&O Indemnified Parties who are currently covered by such Existing D&O Insurance Policies, in either case, with limits and on terms and conditions no less advantageous to the D&O Indemnified Parties than the Existing D&O Insurance Policies, covering claims arising from facts, events, acts or omissions that occurred at or prior to the Effective Time, including the transactions contemplated hereby (provided, that Parent or the Surviving Corporation, as applicable, shall not be required to pay an annual premium for such insurance in excess of three hundred percent (300%) of the aggregate annual premium currently paid by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries for the Existing D&O Insurance Policies (the “Maximum Amount”), but in such case shall purchase as much of such coverage as possible for such amount) and (ii) Parent shall not, and shall not permit the Surviving Corporation or its other Subsidiaries to, take any action or fail to take any action that would prejudice the rights of, or otherwise impede recovery by, the beneficiaries of any such insurance, whether in respect of claims arising before or after the Effective Time. In lieu of such insurance, prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to purchase, following consultation with Parent, prepaid, non-cancellable six (6) year “tail” directors’ and officers’ liability insurance, employment practices liability insurance and fiduciary liability insurance (“Tail Coverage”), effective as of the Effective Time, with limits and on terms and conditions no less advantageous to the D&O Indemnified Parties than the Existing D&O Insurance Policies, covering claims arising from facts, events, acts or omissions that occurred at or prior to the Effective Time, including the transactions contemplated hereby (provided that the premium for such Tail Coverage shall not exceed the Maximum Amount; provided, further, that if such Tail Coverage is not available or the premium for such Tail Coverage exceeds the Maximum Amount, the Company may purchase as much such coverage as possible for such amount), and Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation (or its applicable Subsidiaries) to maintain such Tail Coverage in full force and effect, without any modification, and continue to honor the obligations thereunder, in which event Parent shall cease to have any obligations under the first sentence of this Section 6.6(c).

(d) In the event that Parent, the Surviving Corporation, any of the Company’s Subsidiaries or any of their successors or assigns shall (i) consolidate with or merge or amalgamate into any other Person and shall not be the continuing or surviving company or entity of such consolidation, merger or amalgamation or (ii) transfer all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any Person, then, and in each such case, Parent shall cause proper provision to be made so that the successor and assign of Parent, the Surviving Corporation, any such Subsidiary or such transferee of all or substantially all of its or their properties and assets, as the case may be, assumes, succeeds to and is bound by all of the obligations set forth in this Section 6.6.

(e) The D&O Indemnified Parties are third-party beneficiaries of this Section 6.6. The provisions of this Section 6.6 shall survive the Merger and are intended to be for the benefit of, and enforceable by, each D&O Indemnified Party and his or her successors, heirs or representatives. The rights of each D&O Indemnified Party hereunder shall be in addition to, and not in limitation of, any other applicable rights such D&O Indemnified Party may have under the respective organizational documents of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or the Surviving Corporation, any other indemnification arrangement, applicable Law or otherwise.

(f) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if any claim (whether arising before, at or after the Closing) is made against any of the D&O Indemnified Parties on or prior to the sixth (6^th) anniversary of the Closing Date, the provisions of this Section 6.6 shall continue in effect until the final disposition of such claim.

Section 6.7 Notification of Certain Matters. The Company shall give prompt notice to Parent, and Parent shall give prompt notice to the Company, of (a) any notice or other communication (i) received by such party from any Governmental Authority in connection with the this Agreement, the Merger or the transactions contemplated hereby, or (ii) from any Person alleging that the consent of such Person is or may be required in connection with the Merger or the transactions contemplated hereby, if in the case of clause (ii), the subject matter of such communication or the failure of such party to obtain such consent would reasonably be expected to be material to the Company, the Surviving Corporation or Parent, or involves a Company Material Contract (provided that any inadvertent or unintentional breach of this Section 6.7 with respect to the covenant to provide notice relating to a Company Material Contract shall not be deemed to be a material breach under Section 7.2(c) or otherwise be deemed to be a failure of any condition set forth in Article VII) and (b) any Action commenced, or to such party’s Knowledge, threatened against, relating to or involving or otherwise affecting such party or any of its Subsidiaries which relates to this Agreement, the Merger or the transactions contemplated hereby, and (c) any breach by such party of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement that would reasonably be expected to, individually or in the aggregate, result in a failure of a condition set forth in Section 7.2 or Section 7.3, as applicable, if continuing on the Closing Date.

Section 6.8 Public Announcements. Except as otherwise contemplated by Section 6.5, prior to the Effective Time, the Company, Parent and Acquisition Sub shall consult with each other before issuing any press release or otherwise making any public statements with respect to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, and none of the parties or their respective Affiliates shall issue any such press release or make any public statement prior to obtaining the other parties’ consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), except that no such consent shall be necessary to the extent disclosure may be required by Law, Order or applicable stock exchange rule or any listing agreement of any party hereto (in which case the disclosing party shall use its reasonable best efforts to consult with the other party prior to such disclosure) or is consistent with prior communications previously consented to by the other parties. In addition, the Company may, without Parent or Acquisition Sub’s consent, communicate to its employees, customers, suppliers and consultants; provided that such communication is consistent with prior communications of the Company or any communications plan previously agreed to by Parent and the Company in which case such communications may be made consistent with such plan.

Section 6.9 Employee Benefits.

(a) Employees of the Company or its Subsidiaries who remain employees of Parent, the Surviving Corporation or any of their Subsidiaries following the Effective Time are hereinafter referred to as the “Continuing Employees”. For the period commencing at the Effective Time and ending on the first anniversary of the Closing Date (such period, the “Continuation Period”), Parent shall, or shall cause the Surviving Corporation or any of their respective Affiliates to, provide for each Continuing Employee while the Continuing Employee remains employed by Parent, the Surviving Corporation or any of their Subsidiaries (i) at least the same base salary or wage rate as provided to such Continuing Employee immediately prior to the Effective Time, (ii) short-term and long-term incentive compensation opportunities (in each case, excluding specific performance goals) that are no less favorable in the aggregate (based on target value) than such opportunities provided to each such Continuing Employee immediately prior to the Effective Time and (iii) other employee benefits that are substantially comparable in the aggregate (including with respect to the proportion of the employee cost) to the employee benefits (excluding change in control, retention, supplemental executive retirement arrangements, deferred compensation arrangements, retiree health and welfare benefits or defined benefit pension plans and specific performance goals) that are either (x) provided to such Continuing Employee immediately prior to the Effective Time or (y) provided by Parent and its Subsidiaries to its similarly situated employees. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, during the Continuation Period, Parent shall provide, or shall cause the Surviving Corporation or any of their respective Affiliates to provide, severance payments and benefits to each Continuing Employee whose employment is terminated by the Surviving Corporation or its Subsidiaries other than for cause during the Continuation Period that are no less favorable than the severance payments and benefits that such Continuing Employee would have been eligible to receive upon such termination of employment under the applicable severance plan, policy, practice or arrangement sponsored or maintained by the Company or any of its subsidiaries as set forth on Section 6.9(a) of the Company Disclosure Letter in accordance with the terms of such arrangement as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time (each, a “Company Severance Arrangement”), provided that, Parent may condition such payments and benefits upon execution by the applicable Continuing Employee of a release of claims in a form reasonably satisfactory to Parent.

(b) Parent hereby acknowledges that consummation of the Merger will constitute a “change in control” (or similar term) of the Company under the terms of the Company Benefit Plans as applicable.

(c) From and after the Effective Time, Parent shall, or shall cause the Surviving Corporation or any of their respective Subsidiaries to, assume and honor all obligations under the change in control agreements, employment agreements, supplemental benefit plans, separation agreements, retention agreements and supplemental pension plans listed on Section 4.12(a) of the Company Disclosure Letter in accordance with their terms as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, subject to any provisions thereof related to termination or amendment of such agreements and plans.

(d) For purposes of determining eligibility to participate, vesting and entitlement to benefits, where length of service is relevant under any benefit plan or arrangement of Parent, the Surviving Corporation or any of their respective Subsidiaries providing benefits to any Continuing Employees after the Effective Time (collectively, the “New Plans”), the employees (including officers) of the Company and its Subsidiaries shall receive service credit for

service with the Company and its Subsidiaries (and any respective predecessors) to the same extent such service credit was granted under any benefit plan or arrangement of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, except to the extent any such service credit would result in the duplication of benefits provided that the foregoing shall not apply for benefit accrual purposes under any defined benefit pension plan or retiree medical plan. In addition and without limiting the generality of the foregoing: (i) each Continuing Employee shall be immediately eligible to participate, without any waiting time or satisfaction of any other eligibility requirements, in any and all New Plans to the extent that (A) coverage under such New Plan replaces coverage under a corresponding benefit plan or arrangement in which such Continuing Employee participated immediately before the Effective Time (collectively, the “Old Plans”) and (B) such Continuing Employee has satisfied all waiting time and other eligibility requirements under the Old Plan being replaced by the New Plan and (ii) for purposes of each New Plan providing medical, dental, pharmaceutical and/or vision benefits to any Continuing Employee, Parent shall cause (A) all pre-existing condition exclusions and actively-at-work requirements of such New Plan to be waived for such Continuing Employee and his or her covered dependents to the extent such conditions were inapplicable or waived under the comparable Old Plan and (B) any expenses incurred by any Continuing Employee and his or her covered dependents during the portion of the plan year of the Old Plan ending on the date such Continuing Employee’s participation in the corresponding New Plan begins to be taken into account under such New Plan for purposes of satisfying all deductible, coinsurance and maximum out-of-pocket requirements applicable to such Continuing Employee and his or her covered dependents for the applicable plan year as if such amounts had been paid in accordance with such New Plan.

(e) If requested in writing by Parent no later than five (5) Business Days prior to the expected Closing Date, the Company shall adopt written resolutions to terminate, effective as of no later than the day immediately before the Closing Date, but contingent upon the occurrence of the Closing, any Company Benefit Plan sponsored by the Company or its Subsidiaries that is intended to qualify as a qualified cash or deferred arrangement within the meaning of Section 401(k) of the Code (a “Company 401(k) Plan”), and effective immediately prior to the Closing, (i) all participants in any Company 401(k) Plan shall be fully vested in their account balances and (ii) no Continuing Employee or other Person shall have any right thereafter to contribute any amounts to such Company 401(k) Plan based upon compensation earned after the Closing. Parent shall establish or designate a replacement plan intended to qualify as a qualified cash or deferred arrangement within the meaning of Section 401(k) of the Code (a “Parent 401(k) Plan”) for which Continuing Employees shall become eligible to participate immediately after the Closing Date. Parent shall take all steps reasonably necessary to cause such Parent 401(k) Plan to accept eligible rollover distributions (as defined in Section 402(c)(4) of the Code) from a Company 401(k) Plan, including a rollover of any associated plan loans, as directed by the Continuing Employees.

(f) Notwithstanding anything in this Section 6.9 to the contrary, nothing in this Agreement, whether express or implied, shall (i) be treated as an amendment or other modification of any Company Benefit Plan, New Plan or any other employee benefit plans of the Company or Parent or as a guarantee of employment for any employee of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, (ii) require Parent to continue to employ any particular Continuing Employee following the Closing Date for any particular period of time, (iii) be construed to prohibit Parent from amending or terminating any employee benefit program or any New Plan, and (iv) create any third-party beneficiary rights in any director, officer, employee or individual Person, including any present or former employee, officer, director or individual independent contractor of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (including any beneficiary or dependent of such individual).

(g) Parent shall, and shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, honor the terms of each legally binding collective bargaining agreement and works council agreement until such collective bargaining agreement or works council agreement expires pursuant to its terms or is modified by the parties thereto, subject to any provisions thereof related to termination or amendment of such agreements. The Company shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, comply in all material respects with, and Parent shall reasonably cooperate in satisfying any applicable legal or contractual requirements to provide notice to, or carry out any information and/or consultation procedure with, any employee or groups of employees of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or any labor union, labor organization, workers’ association, works council or similar employee representative organization (each, a “Labor Organization”) which is representing any employee of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (the “Labor Consultations”). In connection with the Labor Consultations, the Company (i) shall keep Parent reasonably informed of the status of the Labor Consultations process and shall provide Parent with a true and certified copy of any opinion or statement delivered by any applicable Labor Organization and (ii) provide Parent with a reasonable opportunity to review, prior to distribution, any material communications delivered to any Labor Organization and consider in good faith Parent’s reasonable comments thereon.

(h) No later than five (5) Business Days following the date hereof, the Company shall make available to Parent a true and accurate list (in an excel document substantially consistent with the form previously provided by Parent to the Company as of the date hereof) of the employees of the Company and its Subsidiaries (such list, the “Employee Census”), in each case, identifying employee names (or, to the extent prohibited by applicable Law, identification number), job title, job location, compensation (including any salary, current commission or bonus eligibility, and long-term incentive pay), most recent date of hire or date of commencement of continuous employment, notice period (as applicable), accrued vacation and employer. No earlier than 21 days prior to the Closing Date and no later than 14 days prior to the Closing Date, the Company shall update the Employee Census to be accurate as of the date that such updated Employee Census is delivered.

Section 6.10 Conduct of Business by Parent Pending the Merger. Parent and Acquisition Sub covenant and agree that, between the date of this Agreement and the earlier of the Effective Time and the date, if any, on which this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 8.1, except as (a) may be required by Law, (b) may be consented to in writing by the Company (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), (c) may be expressly required, contemplated or permitted pursuant to this Agreement or (d) set forth in the corresponding sub-section of Section 6.10 of the Parent Disclosure Letter, Parent and Acquisition Sub shall not, and shall not permit any of their respective Subsidiaries to:

(a) amend, modify or otherwise change (A) any Parent Organizational Documents or (B) in any material respect, the comparable organizational or governing documents of any of its Subsidiaries);

transactions contemplated hereby with respect to such breach or failure to perform; provided that Parent and Acquisition Sub shall also be obligated with respect to Section 8.2, Section 8.3(c) and Section 8.6, as applicable; provided, further, that the Company, Parent and Acquisition Sub shall be entitled to pursue an injunction, or other appropriate form of specific performance or equitable relief, solely as provided in Section 9.9.

(c) Each of the parties hereto acknowledges that (i) the agreements contained in this Section 8.3 are an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (ii) the Termination Fee, the Antitrust Termination Fee and Expense Reimbursement are not penalties, but are liquidated damages, in a reasonable amount that will compensate Parent or the Company, as applicable, in the circumstances in which such fees are payable, for the efforts and resources expended and opportunities foregone while negotiating this Agreement and in reliance on this Agreement and on the expectation of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, which amount would otherwise be impossible to calculate with precision and (iii) without these agreements, the parties hereto would not enter into this Agreement. Accordingly, if the Company or Parent fails to timely pay any amount due pursuant to this Section 8.3 and, in order to obtain such payment, Parent or the Company, respectively, commences a suit that results in a judgment against the Company or Parent, respectively, for the payment of any amount set forth in this Section 8.3, the party not commencing such suit shall pay to the other party its costs and expenses in connection with such suit, together with interest on such amount at the annual rate of three percent (3%) plus the prime rate as published in The Wall Street Journal in effect on the date such payment was required to be made through the date such payment was actually received, or such lesser rate as is the maximum permitted by applicable Law.

Any such extension or waiver shall only be valid if set forth in an instrument in writing signed by the party or parties to be bound thereby. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no failure or delay by the Company, Parent or Acquisition Sub in exercising any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise of any other right hereunder. Any agreement on the part of a party hereto to any such extension or waiver shall be valid only if set forth in an instrument in writing signed on behalf of such party.

Section 8.6 Expenses; Transfer Taxes. Except as expressly set forth herein (including in the following sentence), all Expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be paid by the party incurring such Expenses.

In the event an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement shall be construed as if drafted jointly by the parties hereto, and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any party by virtue of the authorship of any provisions of this Agreement.

(b) Disclosure of any fact, circumstance or information in any Section of the Company Disclosure Letter or Parent Disclosure Letter shall be deemed to be disclosure of such fact, circumstance or information with respect to any other Section of the Company Disclosure Letter or Parent Disclosure Letter, respectively, to the extent that it is reasonably apparent on the face of such disclosure that such disclosure relates to any such other Section. The inclusion of any item in the Company Disclosure Letter or Parent Disclosure Letter shall not be deemed to be an acknowledgment that the information is required to be disclosed or admission or evidence of materiality of such item, nor shall it establish any standard of materiality for any purpose whatsoever.

(c) The words “hereof,” “herein,” “hereby,” “hereunder” and “herewith” and words of similar import shall refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular provision of this Agreement. The word “extent” in the phrase “to the extent” shall mean the degree to which a subject or other thing extends, and such phrase shall not mean simply “if”. References to articles, sections, clauses, paragraphs, exhibits, annexes and schedules are to the articles, sections, clauses and paragraphs of, and exhibits, annexes and schedules to, this Agreement, unless otherwise specified, and the table of contents and headings in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and shall 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 shall be deemed to be followed by the phrase “without limitation.” Words describing the singular number shall be deemed to include the plural and vice versa, words denoting any gender shall be deemed to include

all genders, words denoting natural persons shall be deemed to include business entities and vice versa and references to a Person are also to its permitted successors and assigns. The phrases “the date of this Agreement” and “the date hereof” and terms or phrases of similar import shall be deemed to refer to the date set forth in the Preamble, unless the context requires otherwise. When used in reference to the Company or its Subsidiaries, the term “material” shall be measured against the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole. References to any statute shall be deemed to refer to such statute as amended from time to time and to any rules or regulations promulgated thereunder (provided that for purposes of any representations and warranties contained in this Agreement that are made as of a specific date or dates, references to any statute shall be deemed to refer to such statute, as amended, and to any rules or regulations promulgated thereunder, in each case, as of such date). Terms defined in the text of this Agreement have such meaning throughout this Agreement, unless otherwise indicated in this Agreement, and all terms defined in this Agreement shall have the meanings when used in any certificate or other document made or delivered pursuant hereto unless otherwise defined therein. Any Law defined or referred to herein or in any agreement or instrument that is referred to herein means such Law as from time to time amended, modified or supplemented, including (in the case of statutes) by succession of comparable successor Laws (provided that for purposes of any representations and warranties contained in this Agreement that are made as of a specific date or dates, references to any statute shall be deemed to refer to such statute, as amended, and to any rules or regulations promulgated thereunder, in each case, as of such date). All references to “dollars” or “$” refer to currency of the United States of America. All references to “U.S.” or the “United States” are to the United States of America, including its territories and possessions. Any reference to “days” means calendar days unless Business Days are expressly specified. When calculating the period of time before which, within which or following which any act is to be done or step taken pursuant to this Agreement, the date that is the reference date in calculating such period shall be excluded and if the last day of such period is not a Business Day, the period shall end on the next succeeding Business Day. Unless otherwise specified, the words “made available to” or “delivered to” (or words of similar import) (i) Parent or Acquisition Sub include the documents posted to the Company VDR at least one (1) calendar day prior to the date hereof and (ii) the Company include the documents posted to the Parent VDR at least one (1) calendar day prior to the date hereof.

Section 9.4 Severability. If any term, provision, covenant or restriction of this Agreement or the application thereof to any Person or circumstance is held by a court of competent jurisdiction or other authority to be invalid, void, unenforceable or against its regulatory policy, the remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated. 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 hereto as closely as possible in a mutually acceptable manner in order that the Merger be consummated as originally contemplated to the fullest extent possible. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties intend that the remedies and limitations thereon contained in Section 8.3(b) be construed as an integral provision of this Agreement and that such remedies and limitations shall not be severable in any manner that increases a party’s liability or obligations hereunder.

Section 9.5 Assignment. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations hereunder shall be assigned by any of the parties hereto (whether by operation of Law or otherwise) without the prior written consent of the other parties. Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement will be binding upon, inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the parties hereto and their respective permitted successors and assigns.

Section 9.8 Governing Law. This Agreement and all Actions (whether based on contract, tort or otherwise) arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the actions of Parent, Acquisition Sub or the Company in the negotiation, administration, performance and enforcement thereof, 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 laws provision or rule (whether of the State of Delaware or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the Laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of Delaware.

Section 9.9 Specific Performance. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that irreparable damage for which monetary damages, even if available, would not be an adequate remedy, would occur in the event that the parties hereto do not perform the provisions of this Agreement (including failing to take such actions as are required of it hereunder to consummate this Agreement) in accordance with its specified terms or otherwise breach such provisions. Accordingly, the parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the parties hereto shall be entitled to an injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof (including the right of a party hereto to cause the other parties hereto to consummate the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement), in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity. Each of the parties hereto agrees that it will not oppose the granting of an injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief on the basis that any other party has an adequate remedy at law or that any award of specific performance is not an appropriate remedy for any reason at law or in equity.

(b) Each party irrevocably consents to the service of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 9.2 and agrees that service made in such manner shall have the same legal force and effect as if served upon such party personally within the State of Delaware. However, the foregoing shall not limit the right of a party to effect service of process on the other party by any other legally available method.
