applicable, and (ii) a fraction the numerator of which shall be the amount by which the Stockholders Voting Percentage exceeds 12.5% and the denominator of which shall be the Stockholders Voting Percentage; if as of the record date with respect to any meeting of stockholders or other proposed action by stockholders, the Stockholders Voting Percentage is equal to or less than 12.5%, the “Excess Shares” shall be zero for all Stockholders and Specified Entities.
(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to any vote taken for the approval or adoption of any proposed Sale Transaction not resulting from a breach of Section 3.02, each Stockholder and Specified Entity may vote all Shares over which such Stockholder or Specified Entity holds Voting Power (including all Excess Shares) in such Stockholder’s or Specified Entity’s discretion.
(c) Each Stockholder hereby irrevocably appoints, and shall cause each Specified Entity to appoint, the Company, its designees, and each of them individually, as such Stockholder’s or Specified Entity’s, as applicable, proxy and attorney-in-fact, with full power of substitution and resubstitution, to vote or execute consents, with respect to the Excess Shares as of any applicable record date during the Restricted Period, in each case solely to the extent and in the manner specified in this Section 3.03. This proxy is given to secure the performance of the duties of such Stockholder under this Agreement. Such Stockholder shall not, and shall cause each Specified Entity not to, directly or indirectly grant any Person any proxy (revocable or irrevocable), power of attorney or other authorization with respect to any of such Stockholder’s or any Specified Entity’s Excess Shares that is inconsistent with this Section 3.03, except to the extent permitted by the last sentence of Section 2.2 of the Support Agreement. The proxy and power of attorney granted pursuant to this Section 3.03 by each Stockholder and Specified Entity shall be irrevocable during the Restricted Period (or, if a record date occurs during the Restricted Period, and the related vote or other action is not to occur until after the Restricted Period, shall be irrevocable on the day after the applicable meeting of stockholders or the day after the last day for the taking of such action), shall be deemed to be coupled with an interest sufficient in law to support an irrevocable proxy and shall revoke any and all prior proxies granted by such Stockholder or any Specified Entity with regard to such Stockholder’s or Specified Entity’s Excess Shares and such Stockholder acknowledges that the proxy constitutes an inducement for the Company to enter into this Agreement. The power of attorney granted by each Stockholder and Specified Entity is a durable power of attorney and shall survive the bankruptcy, dissolution, death or incapacity of such Stockholder or Specified Entity. The proxy and power of attorney granted hereunder shall terminate only upon the expiration of the Restricted Period (or, if a record date occurs during the Restricted Period, and the related vote or other action is not to occur until after the Restricted Period, such proxy and power of attorney granted hereunder shall terminate on the day after the applicable meeting of stockholders or the day after the last day for the taking of such action).

SECTION 4.01. Limitation on Transfer of Shares. During the Restricted Period, any Transfer of Shares by any Stockholder or Specified Entity shall be subject to the following limitations:
(a) no Shares may be Transferred, to any Person or Group, if, after giving effect to such Transfer such Person or Group would, to the knowledge of any Stockholder, beneficially own, or have the right to acquire, 7% or more of the Voting Power of the Company, unless such Transfer is to any Stockholder Entity or to a member of the Family of a Stockholder, but only if such Stockholder Entity or Family member agrees to be bound by the terms of this Agreement as a Stockholder and execute a joinder reasonably satisfactory to the Company at the time of such Transfer;
(b) no Shares may be Transferred to any competitor of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (as reasonably determined by the Company); and
(c) if such Transfer is an open market sale, such Transfer shall be made in accordance with the volume and manner of sale restrictions under Paragraphs (e)(1) and (f) of Rule 144 under the Securities Act (regardless of whether the volume and manner of sale restrictions therein are otherwise applicable);
provided, however, that the restrictions in this Section 4.01(a) shall not apply to (i) sales pursuant to a widely disbursed public offering of Shares registered under the Securities Act in accordance with the Registration Rights Agreement, (ii) any Transfers of Shares pursuant to an offer or transaction approved or recommended by the Majority Directors or (iii) any pledge or hedging transaction entered into in accordance with Section 2.01(g) or any foreclosure or settlement pursuant to the terms of an Existing Share Agreement or New Share Agreement existing or entered into in accordance with Section 2.01(g).
SECTION 4.02. Notice. During the Restricted Period, each Stockholder shall notify the Company in writing of any disposition or acquisition of Equity Securities by such Stockholder or any Specified Entity within two (2) Business Days after such disposition or acquisition. The filing by a Stockholder or a Specified Entity of a Form 4 disclosing such disposition or acquisition within such two (2) Business Day period shall be deemed to satisfy such Stockholder’s notice obligation under this Section 4.02.
SECTION 4.03. Improper Transfers. Any attempted Transfer in violation of this Agreement shall be of no effect and null and void, shall confer no rights or privileges in or with respect to the Company to the purported transferee, regardless of whether the purported transferee has any actual or constructive knowledge of the Transfer restrictions set forth in this Agreement, and shall not be recorded on the stock transfer books of the Company.

SECTION 5.02. Expenses. All costs and expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement shall be paid by the party incurring such cost or expense unless otherwise provided herein.
SECTION 5.03. Amendments; Waivers.
(a) No provision of this Agreement may be amended or waived unless such amendment or waiver is in writing and signed, (i) in the case of an amendment, by the Company and approved by the Majority Directors and the Xxxx Designator, and (ii) in the case of a waiver against the Company, by the Company and approved by the Majority Directors, or in the case of a waiver against any of the Stockholders, by the Xxxx Designator. For the avoidance of doubt, any such action taken by the Xxxx Designator shall be deemed binding on all of the Stockholders and the Specified Entities for purposes of determining whether a breach has occurred hereunder. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, until the Effective Time, this Agreement may not be amended, supplemented, restated, modified, waived or terminated (and the Company may not agree to any of the foregoing) without the prior written consent of Rook (it being expressly agreed that Rook shall be a third party beneficiary of this Section 5.03).
(b) Except as provided in this Agreement, no action taken pursuant to this Agreement, including, without limitation, any investigation by or on behalf of any party, or delay or omission in the exercise of any right, power or remedy accruing to any party as a result of any breach or default hereunder by any other party shall be deemed to constitute a waiver by the party taking such action of compliance with any representations, warranties, covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement. The waiver by any party hereto of a breach of any provision hereunder shall not operate or be construed as a waiver of any prior or subsequent breach of the same or any other provision hereunder.
- 15 -
SECTION 5.04. Interpretation. When a reference is made in this Agreement to a Section, Subsection or Annex, such reference shall be to a Section or Subsection of, or an Annex to, this Agreement unless otherwise indicated. The headings contained in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement. Whenever the words “include”, “includes” or “including” are used in this Agreement, they shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation”. The words “hereof”, “herein” and “hereunder” and words of similar import when used in this Agreement shall refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular provision of this Agreement. The words “date hereof” shall refer to the date of this Agreement. The term “or” is not exclusive. The word “extent” in the phrase “to the extent” shall mean the degree to which a subject or other thing extends, and such phrase shall not mean simply “if”. The definitions contained in this Agreement are applicable to the singular as well as the plural forms of such terms. Any agreement or instrument defined or referred to herein or in any agreement or instrument that is referred to herein means such agreement or instrument as from time to time amended, modified or supplemented. The original parties hereto have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement and, in the event an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement shall be construed as jointly drafted by the parties hereto and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any party by virtue of the authorship of any provision of this Agreement. The parties each hereby acknowledge that this Agreement reflects an agreement between sophisticated parties derived from arm’s-length negotiations. Further, prior drafts of this Agreement or any ancillary agreements hereto or the fact that any clauses have been added, deleted or otherwise modified from any prior drafts of this Agreement or any ancillary agreements hereto shall not be used as an aide of construction or otherwise constitute evidence of the intent of the parties hereto; and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any party hereto by virtue of such prior drafts.
SECTION 5.05. Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal or unenforceable, that provision will, to the extent possible, be modified in such a manner as to be valid, legal and enforceable but so as to retain most nearly the intent of the parties as expressed herein, and if such a modification is not possible, that provision will be severed from this Agreement, and in either case the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement will not in any way be affected or impaired thereby. If any provision of this Agreement is so broad as to be unenforceable, the provision shall be interpreted to be only as broad as is enforceable.
SECTION 5.06. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed by the parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be an original, but all such counterparts shall together constitute one and the same instrument. Each counterpart may consist of a number of copies hereof each signed by less than all, but together signed by all of the parties hereto.
SECTION 5.07. Entire Agreement; No Third-Party Beneficiaries; Several Obligations. This Agreement, and (to the extent referenced herein) the Merger Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement, constitutes the entire agreement, and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof and, except as provided in Section 5.03, this Agreement is not
- 16 -
intended to confer upon any Person, other than the parties hereto any rights, remedies, obligations or liabilities under or by reason of this Agreement.
SECTION 5.08. Governing Law. This Agreement and the rights and obligations of the parties hereto shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the Laws of the State of Delaware. The parties hereby irrevocably and unconditionally consents to submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware and of the federal court of United States of America, in each case located in Wilmington, Delaware (the “Delaware Courts”) for any litigation arising out of or relating to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby (and agrees not to commence any litigation relating thereto except in such courts), waives any objection to the laying of venue of any such litigation in the Delaware Courts and agrees not to plead or claim in any Delaware Court that such litigation brought therein has been brought in an inconvenient forum. EACH PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT IRREVOCABLY WAIVES THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN CONNECTION WITH ANY MATTER ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT and, to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, any defense or objection it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any proceeding under this Agreement brought in the Delaware Courts and any claim that any proceeding under this Agreement brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum.
SECTION 5.09. Assignment. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations under this Agreement shall be assigned, in whole or in part, by operation of law or otherwise, by any of the parties without the prior written consent of the other parties hereto and the Majority Directors. Any purported assignment without such prior written consent shall be void. Subject to the preceding sentences, this Agreement will be binding upon, inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by, the parties and their respective successors and assigns.
SECTION 5.10. Enforcement; Information. The parties agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that the parties will be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement, without the necessity of proving the inadequacy of money damages as a remedy, this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at Law or in equity. Each Stockholder shall provide the Company with such information regarding the direct or indirect ownership of Shares and holding of Voting Power by such Stockholder, members of such Stockholder’s Family and their respective affiliates and any agreements (including hedging, pledge or derivative transaction agreements) relating to any Shares or Voting Power to which any of them may be a party, in each case as may be requested from time to time by the Company.
SECTION 5.11. Effectiveness; Termination. This Agreement shall become effective as of the Effective Time. In the event that the Merger Agreement shall be terminated in accordance with its terms prior to the Effective Time, this Agreement shall thereupon terminate.
SECTION 5.12. Confidentiality.
- 17 -
(a) Each Stockholder agrees to maintain, and shall cause each of its controlled affiliates, directors, officers, employees and other representatives (including any Director) to maintain, the confidentiality of all non-public information obtained by such Stockholder from the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or their respective directors, officers, employees or agents, and not to use such information for any purpose other than (i) the evaluation and protection of the investment by the Stockholders in the Company, (ii) the exercise by the Stockholders of any of their respective rights under this Agreement and (iii) the exercise by the Directors of their fiduciary duties as Directors of the Company.
(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the confidentiality obligations of Section 5.12(a) will not apply to information obtained other than in violation of this Agreement:
(i) which such Stockholder or any of its officers, employees, representatives, consultants or advisors is required to disclose by judicial or administrative process, or by other requirements of applicable Law (including any applicable rule, regulation or order of a self-governing authority, such as the NYSE); provided, however, that, where and to the extent practicable and legally permissible, the disclosing party (A) gives the other party reasonable notice of any such requirement and, to the extent protective measures consistent with such requirement are available, the opportunity to seek appropriate protective measures and (B) cooperates with such party in attempting to obtain such protective measures;
(ii) which becomes available to the public other than as a result of a breach of Section 5.12(a);
(iii) which is already in such Stockholder’s possession prior to disclosure by the Company, provided that, to such Stockholder’s knowledge, such information is not subject to another confidentiality agreement or other obligation of secrecy to the Company;
(iv) which has been, is or becomes independently developed by such Stockholder or on its behalf without a breach of Section 5.12(a); or
(v) which has been provided on a non-confidential basis to such Stockholder or any of its officers, employees, representatives, consultants or advisors by a third party who obtained such information other than from any such Person or other than as a result of a breach of Section 5.12(a); provided that, to such Stockholder’s knowledge, such other source is not bound by a confidentiality obligation to the Company.
SECTION 5.13. Representations and Warranties. The Company represents and warrants to the Stockholders, and each of the Stockholders represents and warrants to the Company, that as of the date of this Agreement:
(a) it has all requisite corporate or limited liability company power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement and to perform its obligations under this Agreement and to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement;
- 18 -
(b) the execution and delivery by it of this Agreement and the consummation by it of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate or limited liability company action on its part; and
(c) this Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by it, and (assuming the due authorization, execution and delivery by each of the other parties to this Agreement) constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation, enforceable against it in accordance with its terms, subject, as to enforceability, to bankruptcy, insolvency and other Laws of general applicability relating to or affecting creditors’ rights and to general equity principles.
SECTION 5.14. Acknowledgment of Securities Laws. Each Stockholder hereby acknowledges that it is aware, and that it will advise its representatives who are informed as to the material non-public information that is the subject of Section 5.12, that the United States securities Laws prohibit any Person who has received from an issuer material, non-public information from purchasing or selling securities of such issuer or from communication of such information to any other Person under circumstances in which it is reasonably foreseeable that such Person is likely to purchase or sell such securities.
SECTION 5.15. Specified Entities. Each Stockholder shall use its reasonable best efforts to obtain such approvals as necessary to allow each Specified Entity to be bound by this Agreement as a Stockholder, and upon obtaining any such approval shall cause the applicable Specified Entity to agree to be bound by the terms hereof as a Stockholder.
