ARTICLE I

TERMS OF THE MERGER

1.1 The Merger. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, the Merger shall be consummated in accordance with the Utah Revised Limited Liability Company Act (“URLLCA”). At the Effective Time (as defined below), upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, Merger Sub shall be merged with and into Sequoia in accordance with the URLLCA and the separate existence of Merger Sub shall thereupon cease and Sequoia, as the surviving limited liability company in the Merger (the “Surviving LLC”), shall continue its corporate existence under the laws of the State of Utah as a wholly owned subsidiary of SAH. It is intended that the Merger shall effectuate a tax-free transfer by the Sequoia Members of their respective Sequoia Membership Interests to SAH in exchange for Merger Shares pursuant to Section 351 of the Code.

1.2 The Closing; Effective Time. The closing of the Merger (the “Closing”) shall take place on such date (the “Closing Date”) as mutually determined by the parties hereto when all conditions precedent have been met and all required documents have been executed and delivered by overnight courier or in electronic format (or as otherwise agreed) to the parties. The “Effective Time” of the Merger shall be that date and time the Articles of Merger has been accepted for filing by the Department of Commerce, Corporations Division of the State of Utah, or at such later time as is provided in the Articles of Merger, and the “Effective Date” shall be the date of the Effective Time.

1.3 Conversion of Securities.

At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the holders of any securities of Merger Sub or Sequoia:

(a) Each Sequoia Membership Interest shall automatically be converted into the right to receive .5806419 Merger Shares (the “Merger Consideration”), payable, to the holder of such Sequoia Membership Interest upon surrender, in the manner provided in Section 1.4 hereof, of the certificate that formerly evidenced such Sequoia Membership Interest. All such Sequoia Membership Interests, when so converted, shall no longer be outstanding, and each holder of a certificate representing any such Sequoia Membership Interest shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive the Merger Consideration therefor upon the surrender of such certificate thereof in accordance with Section 1.4 hereof; and

(b) Each issued and outstanding membership interest of Merger Sub shall be converted into one validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable membership interest of the Surviving LLC.

1.4 Tender of and Payment for Certificates.

(a) Exchange Procedures. Promptly after the Effective Time, SAH and the Surviving LLC shall cause to be mailed to each holder of record, as of the Effective Time, of a Sequoia Membership Interest whose Sequoia Membership Interest was converted pursuant to Section 1.3(a) hereof into the right to receive the Merger Consideration, a letter of transmittal (which shall specify that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to the Sequoia Membership Interests shall pass, only upon proper delivery of the Sequoia Membership Interests to the Transfer Agent and shall be in such form and have such other provisions as SAH may reasonably specify) and instructions for use in effecting the surrender of the Sequoia Membership Interests in exchange for the Merger Consideration. Upon surrender of a Sequoia Membership Interest for cancellation to the Transfer Agent or to such other agent or agents as may be appointed by SAH, together with such letter of transmittal, properly completed and duly executed in accordance with the instructions thereto, the holder of such Sequoia Membership Interest shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor the Merger Consideration for each such Sequoia Membership Interest, and the Sequoia Membership Interest so surrendered shall forthwith be canceled. If payment of the Merger Consideration is to be made to a Person other than the Person in whose name the surrendered Sequoia Membership Interest is registered, it shall be a condition of payment that the Sequoia Membership Interest so surrendered shall be properly endorsed or shall be otherwise in proper form for transfer and that the person requesting such payment shall have paid all transfer and other Taxes required by reason of the issuance to a person other than the registered holder of the Sequoia Membership Interest surrendered or shall have established to the satisfaction of the Surviving LLC that such Tax either has been paid or is not applicable. Until surrendered as contemplated by this Section 1.4, each Sequoia Membership Interest shall be deemed at any time after the Effective Time to represent only the right to receive the Merger Consideration in Merger Shares as contemplated by Section 1.3(a) hereof.

(b) Transfer Books; No Further Ownership Rights in the Sequoia Membership Interests. At the Effective Time, the membership interest transfer books of Sequoia shall be closed, and thereafter there shall be no further registration of transfers of Sequoia Membership Interests on the records of Sequoia. From and after the Effective Time, the holders of Sequoia Membership Interests outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall cease to have any rights with respect to such Sequoia Membership Interest, except as otherwise provided for herein or by applicable Law. If, after the Effective Time, Sequoia Membership Interests are presented to the Surviving LLC for any reason, they shall be canceled and exchanged as provided in this Article I.

1.5 Sequoia Membership Interest Equivalents. SAH will assume Sequoia’s obligation with regard to Sequoia Membership Interest Equivalents outstanding at the Closing such that upon the Closing each Sequoia Membership Interest Equivalent shall be deemed to have the right to receive .5806419 Merger Shares upon purchase or exercise of such Sequoia Membership Interest Equivalent.

1.6 Operating Agreement and Articles of Organization. Subject to Article VI hereof, at and after the Effective Time until the same have been duly amended, the Operating Agreement and Articles of Organization of the Surviving LLC shall be identical to the Operating Agreement and Articles of Organization of the Merger Sub in effect at the Effective Time.

1.7 Directors, Managers and Officers. At and after the Effective Time, the directors and/or managers, as applicable, and officers of SAH and Merger Sub shall be the individuals set forth on Exhibit A, in each case until their respective successors are duly elected or appointed and qualified.

SAH’s certifying officers have evaluated the effectiveness of SAH’s controls and procedures as of the date of its most recently filed periodic report (such date, the “Evaluation Date”). SAH presented in its most recently filed periodic report the conclusions of the certifying officers about the effectiveness of the disclosure controls and procedures based on their evaluations as of the Evaluation Date. Since the Evaluation Date, there have been no significant changes in SAH’s internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f)) or in other factors that could significantly affect SAH’s internal control over financial reporting.

4.29 No Security Regulatory Investigation. Neither SAH nor its present officers or directors is, or has been within the prior five years, the subject of any formal or informal inquiry or investigation by the SEC or the NASD.

There is no current or prior event or condition of any kind or character pertaining to SAH that may reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect on SAH. Except as specifically indicated elsewhere in this Agreement, all documents delivered by SAH in connection herewith have been and will be complete originals, or exact copies thereof.

Any determination required to be made with respect to whether the SAH D&O Indemnified Party’s conduct complies with the standards set forth in such charter documents, bylaws, certificate of limited partnership or limited partnership agreement or otherwise shall be made by independent counsel selected by the SAH D&O Indemnified Parties, which counsel shall be reasonably satisfactory to SAH (whose fees and expenses shall be paid by Sequoia), which such determination shall be final and binding on the parties thereto.

(b) Immediately prior to the Effective Time, SAH shall purchase a single payment, run-off policy or policies of directors’ and officers’ liability insurance covering the SAH D&O Indemnified Parties for claims currently covered by SAH’s existing directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policies arising in respect of acts or omissions occurring prior to the Effective Time in amount and scope at least as favorable, in the aggregate, as SAH’s existing policies, such policy or policies to become effective at the Effective Time and remain in effect for a period of six years after the Effective Time.

(c) During the SAH D&O Indemnity Period, SAH shall indemnify and hold harmless the SAH D&O Indemnified Parties in respect of acts or omissions occurring at or prior to the Closing to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law or any other applicable laws or provided under SAH’s and its Subsidiaries’ charter, bylaws, certificate of limited partnership or limited partnership agreement in effect on the date of this Agreement; provided that such indemnification shall be subject to any limitation imposed from time to time under applicable law.

(d) If SAH or any of its successors or assigns (A) consolidates with or merges into any other Person and shall not be the continuing or surviving company or entity of such consolidation or merger, or (B) transfers or conveys all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any Person, then, and in each such case, to the extent necessary, proper provision shall be made so that the successors and assigns of SAH shall assume the obligations set forth in this Article VI.

(e) The rights of each SAH D&O Indemnified Party under this Article VI shall be in addition to any rights such Person may have under the charter, bylaws, certificate of limited partnership or limited partnership agreement of SAH or any of its Subsidiaries, or under Delaware law or any other applicable laws or under any agreement of any SAH D&O Indemnified Party with SAH or any of its Subsidiaries. These rights shall survive consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and are intended to benefit, and shall be enforceable by, each SAH D&O Indemnified Party.

6.2 Future Directors’ and Officers’ Insurance.

(a) In addition to the rights of indemnification provided during the SAH D&O Indemnity Period pursuant to Section 6.1, after the Closing Date, SAH shall indemnify and maintain in effect directors’ and officers’ and fiduciaries’ liability insurance for each SAH Continuing Director (i) during the time such person serves on the board of SAH or its Subsidiaries; and (ii) for a period of not less than six years following the time such SAH Continuing Director no longer serves on the board of SAH or its Subsidiaries.

(b) The liability insurance required pursuant to this Section 6.2 shall be in amount and scope at least as favorable, in the aggregate, as SAH’s policies immediately prior to the Effective Time with comparable terms and conditions and with comparable insurance coverage as is then in effect for the current officers and directors of SAH and its Subsidiaries and whose amount and scope are reasonably satisfactory to the SAH Continuing Directors.

6.3 Insurance in the Event of Dissolution. SAH agrees that if it is dissolved or ceases to exist for any reason prior to, (i) in case of indemnification pursuant to Section 6.1, the termination of the SAH D&O Indemnity Period; or (ii) in case of indemnification pursuant to Section 6.2, the six-year period following the time a SAH Continuing Director shall no longer serve as a director on the board of SAH or its Subsidiaries, then prior to such dissolution or cessation SAH shall extend SAH’s then in effect directors’ and officers’ and fiduciaries’ liability insurance policy on commercially reasonable terms and conditions and with insurance coverage as comparable as possible with the insurance policy then in effect for the current officers and directors of SAH, and such extension shall provide such insurance coverage to each SAH D&O Indemnified Party in accordance with SAH’s obligations under Section 6.1 and 6.2 of this Agreement. SAH shall prepay all premiums in connection with such extension. These rights shall survive consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and are intended to benefit, and shall be enforceable by, each SAH D&O Indemnified Party.
