WHEREAS, in order to ensure that each Stockholder’s election to accept securities of Parent (and/or an Affiliate of Parent) as consideration for Rollover Shares in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth on Annex B and in the Parent Documents will not cause the Offer to fail to comply with the Exchange Act, Parent has required each Stockholder to agree, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, (i) not to tender its, his or her Stockholder Shares into the Offer and (ii) not to have any of its, his or her Stockholder Shares cashed out at the Acceptance Time;

ARTICLE III

CONTRIBUTIONS

Section 3.1 Contributions.

(a) Pre-Merger Contribution.

(i) If (x) the Acceptance Time has occurred and (y) the Effective Time has not occurred, the Stockholder Representative may deliver an irrevocable written notice to Parent (a “Pre-Merger Election Notice”) specifying an election by any one or more of the Stockholder’s to receive cash in exchange for a portion of its Stockholder Shares (such Stockholder Shares, the “Pre-Merger Contribution Shares”); provided that the maximum aggregate number of Pre-Merger Contribution Shares designated in such Pre-Merger Election Notice for all Stockholders shall not exceed the quotient of (A) the Maximum Pre-Merger Amount divided by (B) the Per Share Merger Consideration. The “Maximum Pre-Merger Amount” means Fifty Million Dollars ($50,000,000).

(ii) In the event that the Stockholder Representative has delivered a Pre-Merger Election Notice, unless the Effective Time occurs no later than seven (7) calendar days after the delivery of such Pre-Merger Election Notice (at which point Section 3.1(b) shall apply), then on such date as may be determined by Parent, which date shall be no more than seven (7) calendar days after the delivery of such Pre-Merger Election Notice (such date, the “Pre-Merger Contribution Date”), upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, each Stockholder hereby agrees to contribute or sell, and hereby authorizes the Voting Trust, to the extent any such

Stockholder Shares are held by such Voting Trust, to contribute or sell on its, his or her behalf out of the Stockholder Shares delivered to the Voting Trust pursuant to Section 8.1, free and clear of all Liens (the “Pre-Merger Contribution”), to Parent or its designee all of such Pre-Merger Contribution Shares (collectively, the “Pre-Merger Contributed Shares”). In exchange for the Pre-Merger Contribution, each Stockholder shall be entitled to receive from Parent or its designee, by wire transfer of same day funds to the account designated by the Stockholder Representative in such Pre-Merger Election Notice, an amount of cash equal to (x) the Per Share Merger Consideration multiplied by (y) the number of Pre-Merger Contributed Shares so contributed or sold by such Stockholder.

(iii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the foregoing, Parent may, in its sole discretion, elect, in lieu of a Pre-Merger Contribution, to arrange, at Parent’s cost and expense, alternative liquidity for any such Stockholder no less favorable to such Stockholder than the foregoing arrangements relating to a Pre-Merger Contribution in an amount no less than that requested by the Stockholder Representative in the applicable Pre-Merger Election Notice with respect thereto. In furtherance of the foregoing, each Stockholder agrees that he, she or it shall execute and deliver such additional documents and take all such further action as may be reasonably requested and necessary or desirable to effect such alternative financing.

(b) Merger Contribution.

(i) Subject toSection 8.11, after the Acceptance Time (unless there is an Offer Termination), but in any event no later than the earlier of (x) the Effective Time, provided that Parent provides the Stockholder Representative with at least two (2) Business Days prior written notice of the Effective Time citing this Section (or in the event that the Merger is to be consummated in accordance with Section 253 of the DGCL in connection with the Acceptance Time, Parent provides the Stockholder Representative with such notice on or prior to the date of such Acceptance Time, at which point the notice described below must be provided prior to 10:30 am on the next Business Day following the Acceptance Time) and (y) the later of (1) ninety (90) calendar days after the date hereof and (2) two (2) Business Days after the Acceptance Time (or in the event of an Offer Termination, two (2) Business Days after notice from Parent to the Stockholder Representative on or after the date of such Offer Termination citing this Section), the Stockholder Representative may deliver an irrevocable written notice to Parent (a “Rollover Election Notice”) specifying each Stockholder’s election to contribute or sell none or a portion of its, his or her Stockholder Shares in exchange for Parent Shares (such Stockholder Shares, the “Rollover Shares”); provided that the number of Rollover Shares designated in such Rollover Election Notice shall not exceed 50% of the Stockholder Shares

held thereby, including, for the avoidance of doubt, any Stockholder Shares that may have been previously contributed or sold pursuant to the Pre-Merger Contribution (as adjusted for stock splits, reverse stock splits, recapitalizations, reclassifications, reorganizations, exchanges, subdivisions or combinations); provided further that, if no such Rollover Election Notice has been delivered prior to such time, each Stockholder shall be deemed to have elected that the number of Rollover Shares designated thereby shall be 50% of the Stockholder Shares held thereby, including, for the avoidance of doubt, any Stockholder Shares that may have been previously contributed or sold pursuant to the Pre-Merger Contribution (as adjusted for stock splits, reverse stock splits, recapitalizations, reclassifications, reorganizations, exchanges, subdivisions or combinations).

(ii) Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement and Annex B, prior to the Effective Time on the Merger Closing Date, each Stockholder shall contribute or sell, and each Stockholder hereby authorizes the Voting Trust, to the extent such Voting Trust holds any Stockholder Shares, to contribute or sell on its, his or her behalf out of the Stockholder Shares delivered to the Voting Trust pursuant to Section 8.1, free and clear of all Liens (the “Merger Contribution”), to Parent or its designee all of its, his or her Stockholder Shares (other than any Pre-Merger Contribution Shares previously contributed or sold to Parent, if any) and, if applicable pursuant to Section 3.3, Option Shares (collectively, the “Merger Contributed Shares”). In exchange for the Merger Contribution, each Stockholder shall be entitled to receive, at the time of the Merger Contribution:

(1) from Parent, and Parent shall issue to each Stockholder, a number of Parent Shares equal to the number of Rollover Shares (if any) so contributed or sold by such Stockholder; and

(2) from Parent or its designee, by wire transfer of same day funds to the account designated by such Stockholder at least two (2) Business Days prior to the Merger Contribution, an amount of cash equal to: (x) the Per Share Merger Consideration multiplied by (y) the excess of (A) the number of Merger Contributed Shares so contributed or sold by such Stockholder over (B) the number of Rollover Shares so contributed or sold by such Stockholder.

(iii) The Parent Shares shall have the rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions set forth in Annex B and the Parent Documents. The Parent Shares issued to any of the Stockholders shall be of the same class of common stock issued to Affiliates of Apollo Management VII, L.P. All equity contributions of Affiliates of Apollo Management VII, L.P. will be in cash or Parent Shares and made to Parent in exchange for Parent Shares valued at the Per Share Merger Consideration. Concurrently with the Merger Contribution, if the Stockholders have elected to receive Parent Shares, each of the Stockholders and Parent and the other parties thereto shall execute and deliver each of the Parent Documents to which it is a party.

(i) On or after the Effective Time, but in any event no later than ninety (90) calendar days after the date hereof, the Stockholder Representative may deliver an irrevocable written notice to Parent (a “Repurchase Election Notice”) specifying each Stockholder’s election to cause, at the election of Parent, Parent or its designee, to repurchase all or a portion of its, his or her Parent Shares in exchange for cash (such Parent Shares, the “Repurchased Parent Shares”); provided that, if no such Repurchase Election Notice has been delivered prior to such time, there shall be no

Repurchased Parent Shares and each Stockholder shall be deemed to have irrevocably waived the right to cause Parent or its designee to repurchase any Parent Shares in accordance herewith.

(ii) In the event that the Stockholder Representative has delivered a Repurchase Election Notice, then on such date as may determined by Parent or its designee, which date shall be no more than seven (7) calendar days after the delivery of such Repurchase Election Notice (such date, the “Repurchase Date” and, together with the Pre-Merger Contribution Date and the Closing Date, each a “Stockholder Closing Date”), upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, each Stockholder hereby agrees to sell, free and clear of all Liens (the “Repurchase” and, together with Pre-Merger Contribution and the Merger Contribution, each a “Stockholder Closing”), the Repurchased Parent Shares to Parent or its designee. In exchange for the Repurchase, each Stockholder shall be entitled to receive from Parent or its designee, by wire transfer of same day funds to the account designated by the Stockholder Representative in such Repurchase Notice, an amount of cash equal to the product of (A) the Per Share Merger Consideration and (B) the number of Repurchased Parent Shares so sold by such Stockholder, which amount of cash is subject to adjustment as expressly provided in Annex B.

Section 3.2 Closing. Each of the Stockholder Closings contemplated by this Article III shall take place at the offices of Xxxx, Weiss, Rifkind, Xxxxxxx & Xxxxxxxx LLP, 0000 Xxxxxx xx xxx Xxxxxxxx, Xxx Xxxx, Xxx Xxxx 00000, at 10:00 a.m. local time on such Stockholder Closing Date.

Section 3.3 Stockholder Options. At the Acceptance Time, each Stockholder’s Stockholder Options shall be cancelled and exchanged on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in Section 3.2 of the Merger Agreement; provided that, to the extent each Stockholder can exercise such Stockholder’s Stockholder Options on a cashless basis (as to exercise price and tax withholding) and at an exercise price below the Per Share Merger Consideration, if requested by Parent prior to the Acceptance Time in order to cause the number of Common Shares held by Parent and Merger Sub to equal the lowest number of Common Shares that, when added to (a) any Common Shares acquired thereby pursuant to the Offer, (b) any Common Shares contributable or sellable pursuant to this proviso and (c) any Top-Up Shares, shall constitute one share more than 90% of the total Common Shares then outstanding (determined on a fully diluted basis and assuming the issuance of the Top-Up Shares), such Stockholder shall, to the extent not adverse to such Stockholder, cooperate with Parent and take such actions as may be necessary or desirable so that (i) such Stockholder shall exercise all or a portion of its, his or her Stockholder Options on a cashless basis (as to exercise price and tax withholding), (ii) the Common Shares issued to such Stockholder as a result of such exercise (the “Option Shares”) shall be contributed or sold to Parent or designee pursuant to Section 3.1(b)(ii) and (iii) such exercised Stockholder Options shall not be cancelled by the Company and exchanged pursuant to Section 3.2 of the Merger Agreement.

ARTICLE IV

In connection with any such Meeting or written consent, as applicable, each Stockholder further agrees that it, he or she shall, and shall cause the record holder of any of its, his or her Covered Shares to, and authorizes the Voting Trust, on its, his or her behalf with respect to the Stockholder Shares delivered thereto pursuant to Section 8.1, to Vote all of its, his or her Covered Shares:

(ii) without limitation of the preceding clause (i), in favor of any proposal to adjourn or postpone any Meeting at which the matters described in the preceding clause (i) are submitted for the consideration and vote of the stockholders of the Company to a later date if there are not sufficient votes for approval of such matters on the date on which the Meeting is held;

(iii) against any (w) Acquisition Proposal, (x) reorganization, recapitalization, liquidation or winding-up of the Company or any other extraordinary transaction involving the Company, (y) action, approval or agreement that would compete with, impede, interfere with, adversely affect, tend to discourage or inhibit the adoption of the Merger Agreement or the timely consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement or (z) other matter relating to, or in connection with, any of the foregoing matters described in this clause (iii); and

(iv) against any action, approval or agreement that would result in any breach of a representation, warranty, covenant or agreement of the Company under the Merger Agreement.

Section 5.4 Non-Contravention. The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by such Stockholder and the consummation by such Stockholder of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement do not and will not:

(a) contravene or conflict with, or result in any violation or breach of, any provisions of the organizational documents of such Stockholder (to the extent that such Stockholder is a business entity);

(b) contravene or conflict with, or result in any violation or breach of, any Laws applicable to such Stockholder or any of its Covered Shares;

(e) cause the creation or imposition of any Liens on any of its Covered Shares, other than as contemplated by this Agreement.

Section 5.5 Ownership. As of the date of this Agreement, such Stockholder, together with the other Stockholders, is the sole beneficial owner and/or record holder of the Stockholder Shares and the Stockholder Options, which constitute all of the Common Shares and Company Stock Options beneficially owned and/or held of record by such Stockholder. Such Stockholder owns no other rights or interests convertible or exchangeable into or exercisable for any securities of the Company. The parties have agreed that for all purposes hereunder, the Stockholders shall not be deemed to have any interest or beneficial ownership of 300,000 Common Shares owned by the organization known as The Tomorrow Foundation, Inc., which shares are excluded from this Agreement.

Section 5.6 Voting.

Section 5.9 Parent Shares.

(a) If such Stockholder elects to do so, such Stockholder is not acquiring the Parent Shares as a result of or subsequent to any advertisement, article, notice or other communication published in any newspaper, magazine or similar media or broadcast over television or radio, any seminar or meeting, or any solicitation of a subscription by a person not previously known to such Stockholder in connection with Parent Shares generally.

(b) Such Stockholder has been furnished all materials relating to Parent and the Parent Shares that such Stockholder has requested and has been afforded the opportunity to ask questions and receive answers concerning the terms and conditions of the offering and obtain any additional information which Parent possesses or can acquire without unreasonable effort or expense.

(c) Representatives of Parent have answered all inquiries that such Stockholder has made of them concerning Parent and its Affiliates, or any other matters relating to the formation and proposed operation of Parent and the offering and sale of the Parent Shares. Such Stockholder acknowledges that neither Parent nor any Affiliate of Parent has rendered or will render any Parent Shares advice or securities valuation advice to such Stockholder, and that such Stockholder, if such Stockholder elects to do so, is neither subscribing for nor acquiring the Parent Shares in reliance upon, or with the expectation of, any such advice.

(d) Such Stockholder has not been furnished any offering literature with respect to the Parent Shares or Parent or any Affiliate of Parent. In addition, except as set forth in Article VII, no representations or warranties have been made to such Stockholder with respect to the Parent Shares or Parent or any Affiliate of Parent, and such Stockholder has not relied upon any representation or warranty in making this subscription.

(e) Such Stockholder has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that such Stockholder is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the Parent Shares and of making an informed Parent Shares decision with respect thereto. Such Stockholder is an “accredited investor” within the meaning of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act.

(f) Such Stockholder has adequate means of providing for its, his or her current needs and possible future contingencies, and has no need, and anticipates no need in the foreseeable future, to sell the Parent Shares for which such Stockholder subscribes. Such Stockholder is able to bear the economic risks of the Parent Shares and consequently, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, is able to hold the Parent Shares for an indefinite period of time and has sufficient net worth to sustain a loss of the entire Parent Shares in the event such loss should occur.

(g) If such Stockholder elects to do so, such Stockholder is acquiring the Parent Shares for such Stockholder’s own account as principal for Parent Shares purposes and not with a view to the distribution or sale thereof, subject to any requirement of Law that its property at all times be within his, her or its control.

Neither Parent, nor any of its Affiliates, employees, agents, members, directors, officers, representatives or consultants, assumes any responsibility for the tax consequences to such Stockholder of the acquisition or ownership of the Parent Shares.

(e) Effective as of the Closing, such Stockholder will become obligated to acquire the Parent Shares, to the extent provided for herein.

(f) If such Stockholder elects to do so, such Stockholder must bear the economic risk of the Parent Shares for an indefinite period of time because the Parent Shares have not been registered for sale under the Securities Act, and therefore cannot be sold or otherwise transferred unless either the Parent Shares are subsequently registered under the Securities Act, or an exemption from such registration is available, and the Parent Shares cannot be sold or otherwise transferred unless they are registered under applicable state securities or an exemption from such registration is available.

(g) Such Stockholder’s right to transfer the Parent Shares is or will be restricted by the terms of the Parent Documents. Such Stockholder may be required to transfer the Parent Shares under certain circumstances, as shall be provided in the Parent Documents.

(h) Such Stockholder (i) is aware of and understands the nature of the risks involved in investing in the Parent Shares and (ii) has had ample opportunity to ask questions relating to the Parent Shares, the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement and this Agreement.
