The Co-Founders shall act in good faith to: (i) engage in discussions with the Special Committee regarding the Proposal; (ii) negotiate and finalize the terms of the Definitive Agreements; and (iii) take any action or refrain from taking any action in order for Holdco or Merger Sub to comply with their respective obligations, satisfying the closing conditions or exercise their respective rights under the Definitive Agreements; provided, that the Co-Founders and their respective authorized Representatives and Advisors shall at all relevant times (1) obtain the consents from the other Parties on any adjustment to the purchase price of the Transaction, (2) involve, copy or provide the other Parties, their authorized Representatives and Advisors a reasonable opportunity to participate in, as applicable, all material discussions, negotiations and other communications with the Special Committee or the Company (whether in person, by email or telephone or otherwise) relating to the Transaction, (3) consult with the other Parties on all material terms of all Transaction documentation, (4) circulate all drafts of the Transaction documentation shared by or with the Special Committee or the Company, and (5) keep the other Parties reasonably informed of the status of discussions and negotiations with the Special Committee or the Company.

(b)

In order to facilitate the foregoing and except as otherwise agreed, each Party hereby authorizes and delegates to the Co-Founders the primary responsibility for negotiating and finalizing the terms of the Definitive Agreements with the Company with respect to the Transaction; provided that if any Party fails to reach agreement with the Lead Investors with respect to any material term of the Transaction and such failure continues for more than five (5) Business Days after a notice delivered by the Lead Investors to resolve such disagreement, then such Party shall be deemed to have withdrawn from the Consortium unless otherwise agreed to by each of the Lead Investors. The Co-Founders shall also have the right (i) subject to Section 1.3(c), to adjust the number of Rollover Shares (as defined below) and/or the amount of Cash Contribution (as defined below) of any Party and update the Equity Contribution Schedule (as defined below), and (ii) to determine the number of Rollover Shares and the amount of Cash Contribution of an Additional Member pursuant to Section 1.4.

(c)

For the purposes of this Agreement, any action to be taken by the Co-Founders (other than those contemplated under Section 1.1(a)) shall, in each case, be taken only with the unanimous consent of both of the Co-Founders.

(d)

Each Party shall use its reasonable best efforts to execute a customary confidentiality agreement reasonably required by the Company in connection with gaining access to information with respect to the Company in connection with the Transaction.

1.2 Proposal. The Parties shall submit the Proposal to the board of directors of the Company as soon as possible after the signing of this Agreement.

1.3 Holdco Ownership and Arrangements.

(a)

Prior to the execution of the Definitive Agreements, the Co-Founders shall (i) incorporate Holdco, and, if appropriate, shall cause Holdco to incorporate Merger Sub, and any other intermediate holding companies, in each case, under the laws of such jurisdiction(s) as may be deemed necessary by the Co-Founders, and (ii) adopt the memorandum and articles of association of Holdco, Merger Sub and other intermediate holding companies (if any). The Parties further agree that the memorandum and articles of association of Holdco, or if appropriate, Merger Sub, shall become the memorandum and articles of association of the Surviving Company at the Closing.

(b)

At the Closing, each Party agrees to contribute (or cause his, her or its Affiliates to contribute) to Holdco, in exchange for newly issued equity interests in Holdco, (i) such number of Company Shares held by such Party and/or his, her or its Affiliates and as determined by the Co-Founders from time to time (such Company Shares, the “Rollover Shares” and such number of Company Shares held by a Party, such Party’s “Rollover Contribution”) and (ii) such amount of cash as determined by the Lead Investors unanimously from time to time (such amount, such Party’s “Cash Contribution”). With respect to any Party, the sum of (A) the deemed value of such Party’s Rollover Shares (which shall be calculated based on the per share purchase price offered to the unaffiliated shareholders of the Company in the Transaction) and (B) the amount of such Party’s Cash Contribution (the aggregate amount of (A) and (B) of each party, the “Equity Contribution” of such Party). Each Party’s ownership percentage in Holdco as of immediately following the Closing and the amount of equity interests in Holdco to be issued to such Party in exchange for such Party’s Equity Contribution shall be calculated proportionally based on (x) the amount of such Party’s Equity Contribution, relative to (y) the aggregate amount of all Parties’ Equity Contributions. For the avoidance of doubt, each Party agrees that the obligation of such Party to contribute his, her or its Rollover Shares and Cash Contribution to Holdco under this Section 1.3(b) shall be subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions to the obligations of Holdco and its subsidiaries to consummate the Transaction to be set forth in the Definitive Agreements.

(c)

Each Party hereby agrees that (i) the Co-Founders may prepare and maintain a schedule setting forth the number of Rollover Shares and the amount of Cash Contribution of each Party (the “Equity Contribution Schedule”); (ii) the number of Rollover Shares or the amount of Cash Contribution of any Party shall not, without prior consent of such Party, be increased to more than such Party’s Rollover Shares or Cash Contribution, as applicable, as set forth in Schedule B attached hereto; and (iii) the number of Rollover Shares and/or the amount of Cash Contribution of any Party may be adjusted from time to time by the Co-Founders (including upon the admission of any Additional Member pursuant to Section 1.4 or the withdrawal of any Party from the Consortium pursuant to Section 1.1(b)), and the Co-Founders shall have the right to update the Equity Contribution Schedule from time to time to reflect such adjustments.

(d)

Prior to the execution of the Definitive Agreements, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith to reach agreement on a term sheet for a shareholder agreement that will take effect immediately after the Closing, and would, among other things, govern the relationship of the shareholders in Holdco following the Closing, and contain provisions customary for transactions of this type, and such other terms and conditions as may be mutually agreed by all of the Lead Investors from time to time, which shall be executed by the Parties and/or their respective Affiliates on or immediately after the Closing (the “Shareholders Agreement”). If any Party fails to reach agreement with all of the Lead Investors with respect to the terms of such Shareholders Agreement term sheet, and such failure continues for more than five (5) Business Days after a notice delivered by the Lead Investors jointly to resolve such disagreement, then such Party shall be deemed to have withdrawn from the Consortium unless otherwise agreed to by all of the Lead Investors.

(d)

Subject to Section 1.4(c), Additional Members shall have the same privileges as other Parties, other than the ones specifically granted to the Lead Investors and the Co-Founders (as the case may be). If any Party provides any other person with any indirect interest in the Transaction (such as by way of providing a person with interest in or through such Party), except as otherwise agreed, such indirect holder of any interest in or through a Party shall not be considered a Party or entitled to any rights and privileges of a Party under this Agreement.
