the Company with respect to any of the following, the Stockholder hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to be present (in person or by proxy) and vote (or cause to be voted), or (with respect to any written consent solicitation) deliver (or cause to be delivered) a written consent with respect to, all of the Subject Shares: (A) in favor of the adoption of the Merger Agreement and the approval of the transactions contemplated thereby, including the Merger, and any related proposal in furtherance thereof; (B) in favor of any proposal to adjourn or postpone the Company Stockholders Meeting to a later date if there are not sufficient votes to adopt the Merger Agreement and/or if there are not sufficient shares present in person or by proxy at the Company Stockholders Meeting to constitute a quorum, (C) in favor of any other matter necessary to consummate the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement and (D) against the following actions: (1) any merger, tender offer, exchange offer, sale of all or substantially all assets, recapitalization, reorganization, consolidation, share exchange, business combination, liquidation, dissolution or similar transaction or series of transactions involving the Company, any of its Subsidiaries and any other Person (including any Company Acquisition Proposal), other than the Merger and (2) any other action or agreement that would reasonably be expected to impede, frustrate, interfere with, delay, postpone or adversely affect the Merger or any other transaction contemplated by the Merger Agreement, including the consummation thereof.
(b) At any meeting of the stockholders of the Company to which Section 1(a) above is applicable, the Stockholder shall, or shall direct the holder(s) of record of all of the Subject Shares on any applicable record date to, appear, in person or by proxy, at each meeting or otherwise cause all of the Subject Shares to be counted as present thereat for purposes of establishing a quorum. The Stockholder shall provide Parent with at least five Business Days’ written notice prior to signing any action proposed to be taken by written consent with respect to any Subject Shares.
