THE OFFER AND THE MERGER

Section 2.1 The Offer.

(a) Provided that this Agreement shall not have been terminated in accordance with Section 8.1, Merger Sub shall commence (within the meaning of Rule 14d-2(a) of the Exchange Act) the Offer as promptly as practicable after the date hereof (but not later than the twentieth (20th) day from and including the date of initial public announcement of this Agreement). The obligation of Merger Sub to commence the Offer shall be subject only to the condition that none of the events set forth in clause (c) of Annex A hereto shall have occurred and be continuing (and not waived by Parent or Merger Sub in their sole discretion), and the obligation of Merger Sub to accept for payment, purchase and pay for Shares validly tendered and not withdrawn pursuant to the Offer shall be subject only to the satisfaction (or waiver by Parent or Merger Sub in their sole discretion (but subject to the next sentence)) of the conditions set forth in such Annex A. Merger Sub expressly reserves the right to waive any conditions to the Offer or change the terms of the Offer except that, without the prior written consent of the Company, Merger Sub may not waive the condition in clause (a) of Annex A (the “Minimum Condition”) or the conditions in clause (b) of Annex A, and no change in the Offer may be made which (i) decreases the Offer Price payable in the Offer, (ii) changes the form of consideration to be paid in the Offer, (iii) reduces the maximum number of Shares to be purchased in the Offer or the minimum number of Shares contemplated by the Minimum Condition, (iv) imposes conditions to the Offer in addition to those set forth in Annex A hereto or which otherwise modifies the conditions set forth in such Annex A or (v) amends any other term of the Offer in a manner adverse to the holders of Shares. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Offer and this Agreement, Merger Sub shall, and Parent shall cause Merger Sub to, accept for payment, purchase and pay for all Shares validly tendered and not withdrawn pursuant to the Offer as soon as practicable after the expiration of the Offer (the date of acceptance for payment, the “Acceptance Date” and the time of acceptance for payment on the Acceptance Date, the “Acceptance Time”) or (in the case of Shares tendered during any Subsequent Offering Period) as soon as practicable following the valid tender thereof, in any case without interest, subject to any withholding of Taxes required by applicable Law or in accordance with Sections 3.2(i). Parent shall provide or cause to be provided to Merger Sub on a timely basis funds sufficient to purchase and pay for any and all Shares that Merger Sub becomes obligated to accept for payment, purchase and pay for pursuant to the Offer.

(b) Unless extended as provided in this Agreement, the Offer shall expire on the date (the “Initial Expiration Time”) that is twenty (20) Business Days after the commencement of the Offer (determined pursuant to Rule 14d-1(g)(3) under the Exchange Act). Merger Sub may, without the consent of the Company, (i) extend the Offer for one or more additional consecutive periods of up to twenty (20) Business Days per extension (with the length of such periods to be determined in the sole discretion of Parent consistent with applicable Law), if on any then-scheduled expiration date of the Offer any of the conditions to the Offer set forth in Annex A shall not have been satisfied or waived, and if this Agreement shall not have been terminated in accordance with Article VIII, and (ii) extend the Offer for any period required by any rule, regulation, interpretation or position of the SEC or the staff thereof applicable to the Offer. If, at the Initial Expiration Time or subsequent expiration time related to an extension of the Offer, including an extension pursuant to this sentence, any of the conditions to the obligation of Merger Sub to accept for payment, purchase and pay for Shares tendered pursuant to the Offer has not been satisfied (or waived in accordance with this Agreement), then, if requested by the Company, Merger Sub shall, and Parent shall cause Merger Sub to, extend the Offer through such time as the Company may specify, which time shall be no later than the Termination Date; provided, however, that neither Merger Sub nor Parent shall have any obligation to so extend the Offer at the Company’s request if either of the conditions set forth in paragraph (c)(ii) or (c)(iii) of Annex A are not at such time satisfied in accordance with this Agreement. Nothing in this Section 2.1(b) shall affect or impair any termination rights under Article VIII.

(c) If all of the conditions to the Offer are satisfied or waived, but the number of Shares validly tendered and not withdrawn, together with the Shares, if any, held by Parent and Merger Sub or any other direct or indirect wholly owned Subsidiary of Parent (any such wholly owned Subsidiaries of Parent, Parent and Merger Sub, each a “Parent Company”), constitute less than the number of Shares required to consummate the Merger pursuant to Section 2.10 (assuming the exercise of the Top-Up Option in full), then, upon the applicable expiration time of the Offer, Merger Sub may (and if the Company so requests Merger Sub shall, and Parent shall cause Merger Sub to) provide a subsequent offering period (a “Subsequent Offering Period”) in accordance with Rule 14d-11 under the Exchange Act and, if applicable and to the extent permitted under such Rule 14d-11, thereafter extend such subsequent offering period.

(d) As soon as practicable on the date the Offer is commenced, Parent and Merger Sub shall file with the SEC a Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO with respect to the Offer, which shall include the offer to purchase, form of the related letter of transmittal and form of notice of guaranteed delivery and all other ancillary Offer documents (collectively, together with any amendments and supplements thereto, the “Offer Documents”). The Offer Documents will comply in all material respects with the applicable provisions of the Exchange Act. Parent and Merger Sub shall cause the Offer Documents to be disseminated to holders of Shares as required by applicable federal securities Laws. Parent and Merger Sub, on the one hand, and the Company, on the other hand, agree to promptly correct any information provided by it for use in the Offer Documents if it shall have become false or misleading in any material respect or as otherwise required by applicable Law. Merger Sub further agrees to take all steps necessary to cause the Offer Documents as so corrected to be filed with the SEC and disseminated to holders of Shares as required by applicable federal securities Laws. The Company and its counsel shall be given a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on the Offer Documents before they are filed with the SEC or disseminated to holders of Shares, and Parent and Merger Sub shall give due consideration to all reasonable additions, deletions or changes suggested thereto by the Company and its counsel. In addition, Parent and Merger Sub agree to provide the Company and its counsel any comments or communications, whether written or oral, that Parent, Merger Sub or their counsel may receive from time to time from the SEC or its staff with respect to the Offer Documents promptly after Parent’s or Merger Sub’s, as the case may be, receipt of such comments or communications. The Company and its counsel shall be given a reasonable opportunity to review any responses to such comments or communications, and Parent and Merger Sub shall give due consideration to all reasonable additions, deletions or changes suggested thereto by the Company and its counsel.

Section 2.2 Directors.

(a) Subject to compliance with applicable Law, promptly upon the payment by Merger Sub for Shares pursuant to the Offer representing at least such number of Shares as shall satisfy the Minimum Condition, and from time to time thereafter, Parent shall be entitled to designate such number of directors, rounded up to the next whole number, on the Company’s Board of Directors as is equal to the product of the total number of directors on the Company’s Board of Directors (determined after giving effect to the directors elected pursuant to this sentence) multiplied by the percentage that the aggregate number of Shares beneficially owned by Parent, Merger Sub or their Affiliates at such time (including Shares so accepted for payment and any Top-Up Shares) bears to the total number of Shares then outstanding; provided, however, that Parent shall be entitled to designate at least a majority of the directors on the Company’s Board of Directors (as long as Parent and its Affiliates beneficially own a majority of the Shares). In furtherance thereof, the Company shall, upon request of Parent and subject to the terms of the Company’s certificate of incorporation and by-laws, promptly take all actions necessary to cause Parent’s designees to be so elected or appointed, including, without limitation, increasing the size of its Board of Directors and/or seeking the resignations of one or more incumbent directors. At such times, subject to Section 2.2(c) and applicable Law and regulations and the rules of Nasdaq Global Market, Inc., the Company will cause individuals designated by Parent to constitute such number of members of each committee of the Company’s Board of Directors, rounded up to the next whole number, that represents the same percentage as such individuals represent on the Company’s Board of Directors, other than any committee of the Company’s Board of Directors established to take action under this Agreement which committee shall be composed only of Continuing Directors (as defined in Section 2.2(c)).

(b) The Company’s obligations to appoint Parent’s designees to the Company’s Board of Directors shall be subject to Section 14(f) of the Exchange Act and Rule 14f-l thereunder. The Company shall promptly take all actions required pursuant to Section 14(f) and Rule 14f-1 in order to fulfill its obligations under this Section 2.2, including mailing to stockholders together with the Schedule 14D-9 the information required under Section 14(f) and Rule 14f-1 as is necessary to enable Parent’s designees to be elected to the Company’s Board of Directors. Parent shall supply to the Company, and shall be solely responsible for, any information with respect to itself and its officers, directors and Affiliates to the extent required by Section 14(f) and Rule 14f-1. The provisions of this Section 2.2 are in addition to and shall not limit any rights that Parent, Merger Sub or any of their Affiliates may have as a holder or beneficial owner of Shares as a matter of applicable Law with respect to the election of directors or otherwise.

(c) In the event that Parent’s designees are elected or appointed to the Company’s Board of Directors pursuant to this Section 2.2 then, until the Effective Time, the Company shall cause the Company’s Board of Directors to maintain at least three directors who are members of the Company’s Board of Directors on the date of this Agreement and who are not officers of the Company and who are independent directors for purposes of the continued listing requirements of Nasdaq Global Market, Inc. (the “Continuing Directors”); provided, however, that, if the number of Continuing Directors is reduced below three for any reason, the remaining Continuing Directors shall be entitled to elect or designate a person to fill such vacancy who shall be deemed to be a Continuing Director for purposes of this Agreement or, if no Continuing Directors then remain, the other directors shall designate three persons to fill such vacancies who are not officers, employees, stockholders or Affiliates of the Company, Parent or Merger Sub, and such persons shall be deemed to be Continuing Directors for purposes of this Agreement. The Company and the Company’s Board of Directors shall promptly take all action as may be necessary to comply with their obligations under this Section 2.2(c). Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, following the time directors designated by Parent are elected or appointed to the Company’s Board of Directors and prior to the Effective Time, the Company’s Board of Directors shall take such action as necessary so that the affirmative vote of a majority of the Continuing Directors (or of the sole Continuing Director if there shall then be only one Continuing Director) shall be required, and no further action of the Company’s Board of Directors shall be required, to (i) amend or terminate this Agreement on behalf of the Company, (ii) exercise or waive any of the Company’s rights or remedies hereunder, (iii) extend the time for performance of Parent’s or Merger Sub’s obligations hereunder, (iv) take any action not otherwise required herein or contemplated hereby that adversely affects the rights of the Company’s stockholders, or (v) take any other action by the Company in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby. The Continuing Directors shall have the authority to retain counsel and financial advisors of their choice at the expense of the Company as determined appropriate by the Continuing Directors for the purpose of fulfilling their obligations hereunder and shall have the authority, after the Acceptance Time, to institute any action on behalf of the Company to enforce the performance of this Agreement in accordance with its terms; provided, however, that Parent shall have received at least two (2) Business Days’ prior notice of the proposed commencement of any such action. Following the acceptance for payment of the Shares pursuant to the Offer and prior to the Effective Time, neither Parent nor Sub shall take any action to remove any Continuing Director absent cause and subject to the terms of the Company’s certificate of incorporation and bylaws.

In addition, the Company agrees to provide Parent, Merger Sub and their counsel with any comments or communications that the Company or its counsel may receive from time to time from the SEC or its staff with respect to the Schedule 14D-9 promptly after the Company’s receipt of such comments or communications.

The date on which the Closing is to take place is referred to in this Agreement as the “Closing Date”.

Section 2.7 Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws of the Surviving Corporation. The certificate of incorporation and bylaws of Merger Sub, as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, shall be the certificate of incorporation and bylaws of the Surviving Corporation, except as to the name of the Surviving Corporation, which shall be ICx Technologies, Inc., until thereafter amended as provided by Law, and by such certificate of incorporation and bylaws.

The officers of Merger Sub immediately prior to the Effective Time shall, from and after the Effective Time, be the initial officers of the Surviving Corporation until their successors shall have been duly elected or appointed or qualified or until their earlier death, resignation or removal in accordance with the Surviving Corporation's certificate of incorporation and bylaws.

Section 2.9 The Top-Up Option.

(a) The Company hereby grants to Merger Sub an irrevocable option (the “Top-Up Option”) to purchase that number of Shares (the “Top-Up Shares”) equal to the lowest number of Shares that, when added to the number of Shares owned by Parent, Merger Sub or their Affiliates at the time of such exercise, shall constitute one share more than ninety percent (90%) of the total Shares then outstanding on a fully-diluted basis (assuming the issuance of the Top-Up Shares), at a price per share equal to the Offer Price.

(b) The Top-Up Option shall be exercisable once, in whole and not in part, on or after the Acceptance Time (so long as the exercise of the Top-Up Option would, after issuance of such Shares, be sufficient to allow the Short Form Merger to occur; provided, however, that in no event shall the Top-Up Option be exercisable for a number of Shares in excess of the number of authorized but unissued Shares (including as authorized and unissued Shares, for purposes of this Section 2.9, any Shares held in the treasury of the Company) as of immediately prior to and after giving effect to the issuance of the Top-Up Shares; and provided further, that the Top-Up Option shall terminate upon the earlier of: (i) the tenth (10th) business day after the later of (1) the Acceptance Time and (2) the expiration of any Subsequent Offering Period; and (ii) the termination of this Agreement in accordance with its terms. The obligation of the Company to deliver Top-Up Shares upon the exercise of the Top-Up Option is subject to the conditions that (A) no provision of any applicable Law and no judgment, injunction, order or decree shall prohibit the exercise of the Top-Up Option or the delivery of the Top-Up Shares in respect of such exercise (excluding any rule or regulation of Nasdaq Global Market, Inc.), (B) upon exercise of the Top-Up Option, the number of Shares owned by Parent, Merger Sub and their Affiliates constitutes one Share more than ninety percent (90%) of the number of Shares that will be outstanding on a fully-diluted basis immediately after the issuance of the Top-Up Shares, and (C) Merger Sub has accepted for payment all Shares validly tendered in the Offer and not withdrawn. The parties shall cooperate to ensure that the issuance of the Top-Up Shares is accomplished consistent with all applicable legal requirements of all Governmental Entities (other than Nasdaq Global Market, Inc.), including compliance with an applicable exemption from registration of the Top-Up Shares under the Securities Act.

(c) To exercise the Top-Up Option, Merger Sub shall so notify the Company in writing, and shall set forth in such notice (i) the number of Shares that will be owned by Parent, Merger Sub and their Affiliates immediately preceding the purchase of the Top-Up Shares and (ii) the place and time for the closing of the purchase of the Top-Up Shares (the “Top-Up Closing”). The Company shall, as soon as practicable following receipt of such notice, notify Parent and Merger Sub in writing of the number of Shares then outstanding and the number of Top-Up Shares. At the Top-Up Closing, Merger Sub shall pay the Company in cash by wire transfer the aggregate price required to be paid for the Top-Up Shares and the Company shall cause to be issued to Merger Sub a certificate representing the Top-Up Shares, which certificate may include any legends required by applicable securities Laws; provided, however, at Parent’s election, the aggregate purchase price for the Top-Up Shares may be paid (A) through (i) the payment of an amount in cash equal to the aggregate par value of the Top-Up Shares and (ii) the issuance of a full-recourse promissory note by Merger Sub guaranteed by Parent in principal amount equal to the remainder, bearing simple interest at applicable federal rate per annum and due on the first anniversary of the Top-Up Closing (which promissory note may be prepaid, in whole or in part, without premium or penalty) or (B) with any other combination of cash and such a promissory note where the cash portion of the purchase price is not less than the aggregate par value of the Top-Up Shares.

(d) Parent and Merger Sub acknowledge that the Shares which Merger Sub may acquire upon exercise of the Top-Up Option will not be registered under the Securities Act and will be issued in reliance upon an exemption for transactions not involving a public offering. Parent and Merger Sub represent and warrant to the Company that Merger Sub is, or will be upon any purchase of Top-Up Shares, an “accredited investor”, as defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D under the Securities Act. Merger Sub agrees that the Top-Up Option, and the Top-Up Shares to be acquired upon exercise of the Top-Up Option, if any, are being and will be acquired by Merger Sub for the purpose of investment and not with a view to, or for resale in connection with, any distribution thereof (within the meaning of the Securities Act). The parties agree and acknowledge that in any appraisal proceeding with respect to the Dissenting Shares and to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, the fair value of the Dissenting Shares shall be determined in accordance with Section 262(h) of the DGCL without regard to the Top-Up Option, the Top-Up Shares or any consideration paid or delivered by Merger Sub to the Company in payment for the Top-Up Shares.

Section 2.10 Merger Without Meeting of Shareholders. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 6.8, in the event that any Parent Company, whether pursuant to the Offer, upon exercise of the Top-Up Option or otherwise, shall acquire at least ninety percent (90%) of the outstanding Shares, the parties hereto agree, subject to Article VII, to take all necessary and appropriate actions to cause the Merger to become effective as soon as practicable after such acquisition, without a meeting of shareholders of the Company, in accordance with Section 253 of the DGCL (a “Short Form Merger”). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if the conditions set forth in Section 2.9(b) have been satisfied, Merger Sub shall exercise the Top-Up Option as promptly as practicable following the Acceptance Time.

ARTICLE III

CONVERSION OF SHARES

Section 3.1 Conversion of Shares.

(a) At the Effective Time, each Share issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than Shares to be cancelled pursuant to Section 3.1(c) and Dissenting Shares) shall, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the holder thereof, be converted into the right to receive the Offer Price in cash (the “Merger Consideration”), without any interest thereon.

(b) Each share of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of Merger Sub issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall, at the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of Parent, be converted into one fully paid and nonassessable share of the common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Surviving Corporation.

(c) Each Share held by the Company as treasury stock or owned by Parent or Merger Sub immediately prior to the Effective Time shall, at the Effective Time, be cancelled and retired and shall cease to exist, and no consideration shall be delivered in exchange therefor.

(d) Each Share converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration without any interest thereon pursuant to Section 3.1(a) shall be automatically cancelled and shall cease to exist, and the holders immediately prior to the Effective Time of outstanding Shares not represented by certificates (“Book-Entry Shares”) and the holders of certificates that, immediately prior to the Effective Time, represented outstanding Shares (the “Certificates”) shall cease to have any rights with respect to such Shares other than the right to receive, upon surrender of such Book-Entry Shares or Certificates in accordance with Section 3.2, the Merger Consideration, without any interest thereon, for each such Share held by them.

Section 3.2 Exchange of Certificates Representing Shares.

(a) At or prior to the Closing, Parent shall deliver or cause to be delivered, in trust, to a bank or trust company designated by Parent and reasonably satisfactory to the Company (the “Paying Agent”), for the benefit of the holders of Shares immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than holders of Shares to be cancelled pursuant to Section 3.1(c) and Dissenting Shares), sufficient funds for timely payment of the aggregate Merger Consideration (such cash being hereinafter referred to as the “Consideration Fund”) to be paid pursuant to this Section 3.2 in exchange for all outstanding Shares immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than Shares to be cancelled pursuant to Section 3.1(c) and Dissenting Shares). The Consideration Fund shall not be used for any other purposes.

(b) Promptly after the Effective Time, Parent shall cause the Paying Agent to mail to each holder of record of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares whose Shares were converted into the right to receive Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 3.1(a), (i) a letter of transmittal that shall specify that delivery of such Certificates or Book-Entry Shares shall be deemed to have occurred, and risk of loss and title to the Certificates or Book-Entry Shares, as applicable, shall pass, only upon proper delivery of the Certificates (or affidavits of loss in lieu thereof together with any required indemnity) or Book-Entry Shares to the Paying Agent and (ii) instructions for use in effecting the surrender of the Certificates or Book-Entry Shares in exchange for payment of the Merger Consideration, the form and substance of which letter of transmittal and instructions shall be substantially as reasonably agreed to by the Company and Parent and prepared prior to the Closing. Upon surrender of a Book-Entry Share or a Certificate for cancellation to the Paying Agent together with such letter of transmittal, duly executed and completed in accordance with the instructions thereof, and with such other documents as may be required pursuant to such instructions, the holder of such Book-Entry Share or Certificate shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor, subject to any required withholding of Taxes, the Merger Consideration pursuant to the provisions of this Article III, and the Book-Entry Share or Certificate so surrendered shall forthwith be cancelled. No interest shall be paid or accrued on the Merger Consideration payable to holders of Book-Entry Shares or Certificates. If any Merger Consideration is to be paid to a Person other than a Person in whose name the Book-Entry Share or Certificate surrendered in exchange therefor is registered, it shall be a condition of such exchange that the Person requesting such exchange present proper evidence of transfer and pay to the Paying Agent any transfer or other Taxes required by reason of payment of the Merger Consideration to a Person other than the registered holder of the Book-Entry Share or Certificate surrendered, or shall establish to the reasonable satisfaction of the Paying Agent that such Tax has been paid or is not applicable.

(c) The Consideration Fund shall be invested by the Paying Agent as directed by Parent or the Surviving Corporation. Earnings on the Consideration Fund shall be the sole and exclusive property of Parent and shall be paid to Parent or the Surviving Corporation, as Parent directs. No investment of the Consideration Fund shall relieve Parent, the Surviving Corporation or the Paying Agent from making the payments required by this Article III, and following any net losses from any such investment, Parent shall promptly provide additional funds to the Paying Agent for the benefit of the applicable holders of Shares immediately prior to the Effective Time in the amount of such net losses, which additional funds shall be deemed to be part of the Consideration Fund. No investment of the Consideration Fund shall have maturities that could prevent or delay payments to be made pursuant to this Agreement.

(d) At and after the Effective Time, there shall be no transfers on the stock transfer books of the Company of the Shares that were outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time. If, after the Effective Time, Certificates or Book-Entry Shares are presented to the Surviving Corporation or the Paying Agent for any reason, they shall be cancelled and exchanged for the Merger Consideration pursuant to this Article III, except as otherwise provided by Law.

(e) Any portion of the Consideration Fund (including the proceeds of any investments thereof) that remains unclaimed by the applicable former stockholders of the Company one (1) year after the Effective Time shall be delivered to the Surviving Corporation. Any holders of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares who have not theretofore complied with this Article III with respect to such Certificates or Book-Entry Shares shall thereafter look only to the Surviving Corporation for payment of their claim for Merger Consideration in respect thereof (if any).

(f) Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the Paying Agent nor any party hereto shall be liable to any Person in respect of cash from the Consideration Fund delivered to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Law. If any Certificate or Book-Entry Share shall not have been surrendered prior to the date on which any Merger Consideration in respect thereof would otherwise escheat to or become the property of any Governmental Entity, any such Merger Consideration in respect of such Certificate or Book-Entry Share shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, become the property of the Surviving Corporation, and any holder of such Certificate or Book-Entry Share who has not theretofore complied with this Article III with respect thereto shall thereafter look only to the Surviving Corporation for payment of its claim for Merger Consideration in respect thereof (if any).

(g) If any Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact (such affidavit shall be in a form reasonably satisfactory to Parent and the Paying Agent) by the Person claiming such Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed, and, if required by Parent, the posting by such Person of a bond in such reasonable and customary amount as Parent may direct as indemnity against any claim that may be made with respect to such Certificate, the Paying Agent shall issue in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate the Merger Consideration to which such Person is entitled in respect of such Certificate pursuant to this Article III.

(h) Prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall take all steps reasonably necessary to cause the transactions contemplated hereby and any other dispositions of equity securities of the Company in connection with this Agreement by each individual who is subject to the reporting requirements of Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act to be exempt under Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act.

(i) Parent, Merger Sub, the Surviving Corporation or the Paying Agent shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement to any holder of Shares, Options, Restricted Stock Awards, RSUs or Warrants such amounts as Parent, Merger Sub, the Surviving Corporation or the Paying Agent is or may be reasonably required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under the Code, or any provision of state, local or foreign Tax Law. To the extent that amounts are so withheld and paid over to the appropriate taxing authority by Parent, Merger Sub, the Surviving Corporation or the Paying Agent, such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the holder of the Shares, Options, Restricted Stock Awards, RSUs or Warrants in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made by Parent, Merger Sub, the Surviving Corporation or the Paying Agent.

Section 3.3 Stock Options and Other Equity-Based Awards.

(a) Each option to purchase Shares (an “Option”) granted under the Company’s 2005 Stock Plan or the Company’s 2007 Equity Incentive Plan (together with the Company’s 2005 Stock Plan, the “Equity Plans”), or an Assumed Subsidiary Equity Plan and outstanding immediately before the Effective Time, shall at the Effective Time (i) in the case of an Option that is vested as of the Effective Time (including an Option that will become vested solely as a result of the Merger), be cancelled, and the holder of each such Option shall be entitled to receive from the Company, as of the Effective Time and with respect to each such Option, cash, without interest, equal to the product of (A) the excess, if any, of the Merger Consideration over the exercise price per share of such Option, multiplied by (B) the number of Shares covered by such Option (the aggregate amount of such cash, the “Option Consideration”), with such payment to be subject to any applicable Tax withholding (in accordance with Section 3.2(i)), and (ii) in the case of an Option that is not vested as of the Effective Time (other than an Option that will become vested solely as a result of the Merger) be converted into an option (a “Substitute Option”) to purchase the number of shares of Parent Common Stock (decreased to the nearest full share) determined by multiplying (A) the number of Shares covered by such Option, by (B) the Equity Award Ratio, and the exercise price per share of such Substitute Option shall be determined by dividing the exercise price per share of such Option by the Equity Award Ratio (increased to the nearest cent). After the Effective Time, except as provided in this Section 3.3(a), each Substitute Option shall be exercisable upon the same terms and conditions as were applicable under the Option immediately prior to the Effective Time, subject to any acceleration, lapse or other vesting occurring by operation of the Merger (either alone or in connection with any other event).

(b) Each restricted stock unit award with respect to a Share (an “RSU”) granted under the Equity Plans and outstanding immediately before the Effective Time shall be adjusted and converted into a restricted stock unit (a “Substitute RSU”) with respect to a number of shares of Parent Common Stock determined by multiplying the number of Shares subject to such RSU by the Equity Award Ratio. After the Effective Time, except as provided in this Section 3.3(b), each Substitute RSU shall be subject to the terms of such RSU effective immediately prior to the Effective Time, subject to any payment, calculation, acceleration, lapse, vesting or other impact occurring by operation of the Merger (either alone or in connection with any other event); provided, however, that any RSU that becomes vested solely as a result of the Merger shall be settled at the Effective Time for an amount of cash equal to the product of the Merger Consideration and the number of Shares subject to such RSU, subject to any applicable Tax withholding (in accordance with Section 3.2(i)).

(c) Each Warrant shall at the Effective Time be cancelled and the holder of each Warrant shall be entitled to receive from the Company, as of the Effective Time, cash, without interest, in an amount equal to (i) the product of (A) the number of Shares subject to the Warrants of such holder and (B) the Merger Consideration minus (ii) the product of (A) the number of Shares subject to the Warrants of such holder and (B) the per share exercise price of such Warrants immediately prior to the Effective Time. All amounts payable in respect of such Warrants pursuant to this Section 3.3(c) shall be subject to any applicable withholding of Taxes (in accordance with Section 3.2(i)).

(d) Prior to the Effective Time, and subject to Section 3.3(d) of the Company Disclosure Schedule, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to take all such actions, in consultation with Parent, as may be required to effectuate the provisions of this Section 3.3. Other than with respect to Options described in clause (ii) of the first sentence of Section 3.3(a) and RSUs not described in the proviso in the last sentence of Section 3.3(b), no later than the Effective Time, Parent shall provide to the Surviving Corporation or the Paying Agent all funds necessary to fulfill the obligations under this Section 3.3.

(e) At or promptly following the Effective Time, Parent shall deliver to the holders of Substitute Options and Substitute RSUs appropriate notices setting forth such holders’ rights pursuant to the respective Substitute Options and Substitute RSUs, including, in addition to the same terms and conditions that applied to such awards prior to the substitution (subject to the adjustments required by this Section 3.3 after giving effect to the Merger). Parent shall (i) reserve for issuance the number of shares of Parent Common Stock that will become subject to the Substitute Options and Substitute RSUs and (ii) as soon as practicable following the date of this Agreement (and in any event no later than the Effective Time), prepare and file with the SEC and use its reasonable best efforts to have declared effective immediately prior to the Effective Time a registration statement on Form S-8 registering a number of shares of Parent Common Stock necessary to fulfill Parent’s obligations under this Section 3.3 and covering the exercise of the Substitute Options or settlement of the Substitute RSUs. Such registration statement shall be kept effective (and the current status of the prospectus required thereby shall be maintained) for at least as long as Substitute Options and Substitute RSUs remain outstanding.

Section 3.4 Dissenting Shares. Notwithstanding Section 3.1(a) hereof, to the extent that holders thereof are entitled to appraisal rights under Section 262 of the DGCL, Shares issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and held by a holder who has properly exercised and perfected such holder’s demand for appraisal rights under Section 262 of the DGCL (the “Dissenting Shares”), shall not be converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration, but the holders of such Dissenting Shares shall be entitled to receive such consideration as shall be determined pursuant to Section 262 of the DGCL; provided, however, that if any such holder shall have failed to perfect or shall have effectively withdrawn or lost such holder’s right to appraisal and payment under the DGCL, such holder’s Shares shall thereupon be deemed to have been converted as of the Effective Time into the right to receive the Merger Consideration, without any interest thereon, and such Shares shall not be deemed to be Dissenting Shares. The Company shall promptly provide Parent with notice of any demands for appraisal of any Shares, and Parent shall have the right to participate in and direct all negotiations and proceedings with respect to such demands. Prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall not, without the prior written consent of Parent, voluntarily make any payment with respect to, or settle or offer to settle, any such demands, or agree to do any of the foregoing. Any payments required to be made with respect to the Dissenting Shares shall be made by Parent and the aggregate Merger Consideration shall be reduced, on a dollar-for-dollar basis, as if the holder of such Dissenting Shares had not been a stockholder of the Company immediately prior to the Effective Time.

From the date hereof until the earlier of the Effective Time or the date on which this Agreement is terminated in accordance with its terms, the Company shall, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to, afford to Parent, and to Parent’s officers, employees, accountants, counsel, financial advisors, financing sources, environmental consultants and other representatives (the foregoing, with respect to any Person, its “Representatives”), reasonable access during normal business hours and upon reasonable prior notice from Parent during the period prior to the Effective Time to their respective properties (including Phase I environmental assessments), books, contracts, commitments, personnel and records and, during such period, the Company shall, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to, furnish promptly to Parent (a) a copy of each material report, schedule, registration statement and other document filed by it during such period pursuant to the requirements of supranational, national, federal, state, local or municipal (whether domestic or foreign) Law and (b) all other information concerning its business, properties and personnel as Parent may reasonably request.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not be required to provide access to, or cause its Subsidiaries to provide access to, any information or documents which would, in the reasonable judgment of the Company, (i) constitute a waiver of the attorney-client or other privilege held by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, (ii) otherwise violate any applicable Laws or (iii) breach any agreement of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries with any third-party (provided that the Company has used commercially reasonable efforts to find alternative means, not constituting a breach of any such agreement with a third party, to provide the access or information contemplated by this Section 6.3). Parent and the Company shall cooperate and consult with each other to develop announcement materials and undertake discussions with customers, partners and prime contractors of Material Company Contracts to which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is a subcontractor, and make appropriate management available at presentations related to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement as reasonably requested by the other party, in each case, in a manner that would not unreasonably interfere with the conduct of the business of the Company and its Subsidiaries.

Section 6.4 Acquisition Proposals.

(a) From the date of this Agreement until the Effective Time or, if earlier, the termination of this Agreement in accordance with its terms, the Company will not, nor shall it authorize or permit any of its Subsidiaries or any of its or their respective officers, directors, employees and other Representatives to, (i) initiate, solicit or take any action to facilitate, directly or indirectly, any inquiries regarding or the making of any Acquisition Proposal or (ii) except as permitted below, engage in negotiations or discussions with, or furnish any information or data to, any Person relating to an Acquisition Proposal. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Company may comply with its obligations under any nondisclosure agreements that require the Company to disclose to the parties to such agreements that Parent or any affiliate of Parent participated in the Company’s auction process and may waive any standstill restrictions under nondisclosure agreements with parties that participated in the Company’s auction process to permit them to submit an Acquisition Proposal to the Company.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, at any time prior to the Acceptance Date, in the event that the Company receives an unsolicited written Acquisition Proposal after the date hereof that did not result from a breach of this Section 6.4, the Company and its Board of Directors may participate in discussions or negotiations (including, as a part thereof, making any counterproposal) with, or furnish any information and access to, any Person making such Acquisition Proposal and its Representatives or potential sources of financing if (i) the Company’s Board of Directors determines in good faith, after consultation with the Company’s outside legal counsel and financial advisor, that such Person is reasonably likely to submit to the Company an Acquisition Proposal that is a Superior Proposal and (ii) the Company’s Board of Directors determines in good faith, after consultation with its counsel, that the failure to participate in such discussions or negotiations or to furnish such information would be inconsistent with the directors’ fiduciary duties to the Company’s stockholders under applicable Law; provided that all such information so furnished has been previously provided to Parent or is provided to Parent substantially concurrent with it being so furnished to such Person or its Representatives. In addition, nothing herein shall restrict the Company from complying with its disclosure obligations with regard to any Acquisition Proposal under applicable Law.

(c) Neither the Board of Directors of the Company nor any committee thereof shall (i) (A) withdraw (or modify in a manner adverse to Parent or Merger Sub), or publicly propose to withdraw (or so modify) the recommendation by the Board of Directors of the Company and any committee thereof of the Offer, the Merger or this Agreement or (B) recommend, adopt or approve, or propose publicly to recommend, adopt or approve, any Acquisition Proposal (any action described in this clause (i) being referred to as a “Change in Recommendation”) (ii) approve or recommend, or propose to approve or recommend, or allow the Company or any of its Affiliates to execute or enter into, any letter of intent, memorandum of understanding, agreement in principle, merger agreement, acquisition agreement, option agreement, joint venture agreement, partnership agreement or other similar agreement constituting or related to, or that is intended to or would reasonably be expected to lead to, any Acquisition Proposal (other than a customary confidentiality agreement) or (iii) take any action to render the restrictions on business combinations with interested stockholders set forth in Section 203 of the DGCL or any other “control share,” anti-takeover or similar Law inapplicable to any transaction included in the definition of Acquisition Proposal or grant any waiver or release under any standstill or similar agreement with respect to any class of equity securities of the Company. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, at any time prior to the Acceptance Date, the Board of Directors of the Company may (i) make a Change in Recommendation if the Board of Directors of the Company determines in good faith (after consultation with its counsel and financial advisor) that the failure to take such action would be inconsistent with the directors’ fiduciary duties to the stockholders of the Company under applicable Law or (ii) terminate this Agreement to accept a Superior Proposal that was not solicited after the date hereof and did not otherwise result from a breach of this Section 6.4; provided, however, that (1) no Change in Recommendation may be made and (2) no termination of this Agreement pursuant to this Section 6.4(c) may be made, in each case until after the fifth (5th) Business Day following Parent’s receipt of written notice from the Company advising Parent that the Board of Directors of the Company intends to make a Change in Recommendation (a “Notice of Adverse Recommendation”) or terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 6.4(c) (a “Notice of Superior Proposal”) and specifying the reasons therefor, including, if the basis of the proposed action by the Company’s Board of Directors is a Superior Proposal, the terms and conditions of any such Superior Proposal (it being understood and agreed that any amendment to the financial terms or any other material term of such Superior Proposal shall require a new Notice of Adverse Recommendation or Notice of Superior Proposal and a new five (5) Business Day period). In determining whether to make a Change in Recommendation, the Board of Directors of the Company shall take into account any changes to the terms of this Agreement proposed by Parent in response to a Notice of Adverse Recommendation, a Notice of Superior Proposal or otherwise.

Section 6.5 Employee Benefits.

(a) Parent agrees that the Surviving Corporation shall cause the Surviving Corporation’s employee benefit plans established following the Closing Date (if any) and any other employee benefit plans covering the employees of the Company and its Subsidiaries who remain in the employment of the Surviving Corporation (the “Continuing Employees”) following the Effective Time (collectively, the “Post-Closing Plans”), to recognize the service of each Continuing Employee (to the extent such service was recognized by the Company) for purposes of eligibility, vesting and determination of the level of benefits (but not for benefit accrual purposes) under the Post-Closing Plans. Each Post-Closing Plan shall waive pre-existing condition limitations to the extent waived or not applicable under a comparable Benefit Plan. Continuing Employees shall be given credit under the applicable Post-Closing Plan for amounts paid prior to the Effective Time during the year in which the Effective Time occurs under a corresponding Benefit Plan during the same period for purposes of applying deductibles, co-payments and out-of-pocket maximums as though such amounts had been paid in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Post-Closing Plan.

(b) Parent shall, or shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, honor the terms of all Benefit Plans set forth in Section 6.5(b) of the Company Disclosure Schedule. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement, no provision of this Agreement shall (i) create any right in any employee to continued employment by Parent, the Company, the Surviving Corporation or any respective Subsidiary thereof, or preclude the ability of Parent, the Company, the Surviving Corporation or any respective Subsidiary thereof, to terminate the employment of any employee for any reason or (ii) require Parent, the Company, the Surviving Corporation, or any respective Subsidiary thereof, to continue any employee benefit plan, program, policy, arrangement or agreement or prevent the amendment, modification, or termination thereof in accordance with plan terms after the Closing Date.

(c) Parent and the Company hereby agree that the occurrence of the Acceptance Time shall constitute a “Change in Control” for purposes of all Benefit Plans set forth in Section 6.5(c) of the Company Disclosure Schedule.

(d) In lieu of Options that would otherwise have been granted to the Company’s directors during fiscal year 2010, the Company may make cash payments to such directors prior to Closing in an aggregate amount for all directors not exceeding $50,000. To the extent not previously paid by the Company, Parent shall, or shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, pay bonuses with respect to the Company’s 2010 fiscal year under the bonus plans listed on Section 6.5(d) of the Company Disclosure Schedule, in accordance with their terms as in effect immediately before the Effective Time and at the time that such bonus payments would otherwise have been made, and Parent shall honor such payment terms to the extent the Company shall have accrued for such bonuses in the forecasted financial statements Made Available to Parent.

(e) Prior to the Closing Date, the Board of Directors of the Company shall adopt resolutions providing that no rights to contributions will accrue under the Company 401(k) Plan after, and that the Company 401(k) Plan will be terminated as of, the business day immediately prior to the Closing Date. The Company shall allow Parent to review such resolutions prior to their adoption and shall cooperate with Parent to make any changes to such resolutions reasonably requested by Parent. The Company shall take all other actions required or reasonably advisable to terminate the Company 401(k) Plan prior to the Closing Date (including giving notice to the administrator and trustee of the Company 401(k) Plan), and shall consult with Parent prior to taking any such other actions concerning the termination of the Company 401(k) Plan.

(f) This Section 6.5 shall be binding upon and shall inure solely to the benefit of each of the parties to this Agreement, and, except as provided for in Section 9.6, nothing in this Section 6.5, 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 Section 6.5 or is intended to be, shall constitute or be construed as an amendment to or modification or as establishing or creating of any employee benefit plan, program, arrangement or policy of Parent, the Company, the Surviving Corporation or any respective Subsidiary thereof.

Section 6.6 Publicity. The initial press release by each of Parent and the Company with respect to the execution of this Agreement shall be reasonably acceptable to Parent and the Company. Neither the Company nor Parent (nor any of their respective Affiliates) shall issue any other press release or make any other public announcement with respect to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby without the prior agreement of the other party, except as may be required by Law or by any listing agreement with a national securities exchange, in which case the party proposing to issue such press release or make such public announcement shall use its reasonable efforts to consult in good faith with the other party before making any such public announcements; provided that the Company will no longer be required to obtain the prior agreement of or consult with Parent in connection with any such press release or public announcement if the Company’s Board of Directors has effected any Change in Recommendation or shall have resolved to do so.

Section 6.7 Directors’ and Officers’ Insurance and Indemnification.

(a) From and after the Effective Time, Parent and the Surviving Corporation shall, and Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, assume the obligations with respect to all rights to indemnification, advancement of expenses and exculpation from liabilities for acts or omissions occurring at or prior to the Effective Time now existing in favor of the current or former directors or officers of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (“Indemnified Parties”) as provided in the Company’s certificate of incorporation, bylaws or any indemnification agreement between an Indemnified Party and the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (a complete and accurate copy of each such indemnification agreement has been heretofore Made Available to Parent) (in each case, as in effect on the date hereof or as amended or entered into prior to the Closing with the consent of Parent), without further action, as of the Effective Time and such obligations shall survive the Merger and shall continue in full force and effect in accordance with their terms. The certificate of incorporation and bylaws of the Surviving Corporation shall contain the provisions with respect to indemnification, advancement of expenses and limitation of director liability set forth in the certificate of incorporation and bylaws of the Company on the date of this Agreement, which provisions thereafter shall not be amended, repealed or otherwise modified in any manner that would adversely affect the rights thereunder of the Indemnified Parties.

It is understood and agreed that in the event such a policy cannot be obtained for $575,000 or less in the aggregate, Parent shall be obligated to obtain as much coverage for not less than six years from the Effective Time as may be obtained for such $575,000 aggregate amount.

Parent hereby guarantees the payment and performance by the Surviving Corporation of the indemnification and other obligations pursuant to this Section 6.7 and the certificate of incorporation and bylaws of the Surviving Corporation.

(e) In the event that Parent, the Surviving Corporation or any of their successors or assigns (i) consolidates with or merges into any other Person and shall not be the continuing or surviving Person of such consolidation or merger or (ii) transfers or conveys a majority of its properties and assets to any Person, then, and in each such case, proper provision shall be made so that the successors, assigns and transferees of Parent or the Surviving Corporation or their respective successors or assigns, as the case may be, assume the obligations set forth in this Section 6.7.

Section 6.8 Company Special Meeting; Proxy Statement. If required by applicable Law to consummate the Merger, the Company shall, in accordance with applicable Law and its certificate of incorporation and bylaws, duly call, give notice of, convene and hold a special meeting of the Company’s stockholders (including any adjournment or postponement thereof, the “Company Special Meeting”) as soon as practicable following Merger Sub’s acceptance of and payment for Shares pursuant to the Offer, for the purpose of considering adopting this Agreement. In connection with the Company Special Meeting, as soon as practicable following Merger Sub’s acceptance of and payment for Shares pursuant to the Offer, the Company shall prepare with Parent and file with the SEC a Proxy Statement and furnish the information required to be provided to the stockholders of the Company pursuant to the DGCL and any other applicable Laws. Parent and Merger Sub, on the one hand, and the Company, on the other hand, agree to promptly correct any information provided by it for use in the Proxy Statement if it shall have become false or misleading in any material respect or as otherwise required by applicable Law. The Company further agrees to take all steps necessary to cause the Proxy Statement as so amended or supplemented to be filed with the SEC and disseminated to holders of Shares to the extent required by applicable Laws. The Company agrees to provide Parent and its counsel any comments or communications, whether written or oral, that the Company or its counsel may receive from time to time from the SEC or its staff with respect to the Proxy Statement promptly after receipt of such comments or communications. Parent and its counsel shall be given a reasonable opportunity to review any responses to such comments or communications, and the Company shall give due consideration to all reasonable additions, deletions or changes suggested thereto by Parent and its counsel.

Nothing contained in this Section 8.2 shall relieve any party from liability for fraud or any statement, act or failure to act that is intended to be a misrepresentation or breach by such party of any representation, covenant or agreement herein (including failure to consummate the Offer in accordance with its terms) or in the Nondisclosure Agreement. None of Parent, Merger Sub or the Company shall be relieved or released from any liabilities or damages arising out of its intentional and willful breach of any provision of this Agreement.

For purposes of clause (ii)(C) of the immediately preceding sentence, the term “Acquisition Proposal” shall have the meaning assigned to such term in Section 1.1 except that the references to “15%” therein shall be deemed to be references to “40%”. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the Company be required to pay the fee referred to in this Section 8.2(b) (X) on more than one occasion or (Y) if, at the time this Agreement is terminated, this Agreement could have been terminated by the Company pursuant to Section 8.1(b)(ii) or Section 8.1(c)(i). Upon payment of such Termination Fee, the Company shall have no further liability to Parent or Merger Sub with respect to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby. Notwithstanding anything else herein to the contrary, the payment contemplated by this Section 8.2(b) shall be made by wire transfer of immediately-available funds to an account designated by Parent and shall be reduced by any amounts required to be deducted or withheld therefrom under applicable Law in respect of Taxes.

(c) In the event that this Agreement is terminated by Parent pursuant to Section 8.1(d)(i) and (i) at the time of such termination no Acquisition Proposal (or intention by any Person to make an Acquisition Proposal) has been publicly disclosed for the first time or (ii) the Company does not, within twelve (12) months after such termination, enter into any definitive agreement with respect to (or consummate) a transaction contemplated by any Acquisition Proposal, then the Company shall pay to Parent an amount equal to Parent’s Expenses, such amount not to exceed $2,000,000, which shall be paid (A) concurrently with Parent’s termination of this Agreement, in the case of an amount payable pursuant to Section 8.2(c)(i) or (B) on the date that is twelve (12) months after Parent’s termination, in the case of an amount payable pursuant to Section 8.2(c)(ii). Notwithstanding anything in this Section 8.2(c) to the contrary, nothing in this Section 8.2(c) shall limit Parent’s ability to recover its Expenses or any other damages in excess of $2,000,000 through any remedy otherwise available to Parent under this Agreement or applicable Law. For purposes of this Section 8.2(c), the term “Expenses” means fees and expenses incurred or paid by or on behalf of Parent, Merger Sub or their respective Affiliates in connection with the Offer, the Merger or the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement, or related to the authorization, preparation, negotiation, execution and performance of this Agreement, in each case including all fees and expenses of law firms, commercial banks, investment banking firms, financing sources, accountants, experts and consultants to Parent, Merger Sub and their respective Affiliates.
