CONSENT AND AMENDMENT NO. 3 TO LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT
This CONSENT AND AMENDMENT NO. 3 TO LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT (“Amendment”) is dated as of
October 15, 2009, and is entered into by and among BroadSoft, Inc., a Delaware corporation
(“Parent”), BroadSoft International, Inc” a Delaware corporation (“International”), BroadSoft M6,
LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“M6”), BroadSoft Sylantro, Inc., a Delaware corporation
(“Sylantro”; and together with Parent, International and M6, the “Existing Borrowers”, and each an

together with Parent, International, M6, and Sylantro, the “Borrowers”, and each a “Borrower”), and
ORIX Venture Finance, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Lender”). As described below, it
is anticipated that PacketSmart will merge with PacketIsland, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Packet

on the date hereof as described below.
WITNESSETH:
WHEREAS, Existing Borrowers and Lender are parties to that certain Loan and Security Agreement
dated as of September 26, 2008 (as amended from time to time being referred to herein as the “Loan
Agreement”; capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein have the definitions provided therefore
in the Loan Agreement);
WHEREAS, Existing Borrowers have informed Lender that, for purposes of effectuating the
“Merger” (as defined below), Parent formed a new wholly-owned Subsidiary, PacketSmart, and that
PacketSmart has had no operations to date;
WHEREAS, Existing Borrowers have informed Lender that Parent desires to effect a merger of
PacketSmart with and into Packet Island, pursuant to the terms of that certain Agreement and Plan
of Merger and Reorganization (the “Merger Agreement”) among Parent, PacketSmart, Packet Island and
certain other parties as identified therein, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit
A (the “Merger”), with Packet Island being the surviving entity of such merger and, immediately
after giving effect thereto, changing its name to BroadSoft PacketSmart, Inc. (the “New Borrower”);
WHEREAS, in the absence of the prior written consent of Lender, the Merger would constitute a
Default under Sections 4.5(i) and 4.5(ii) of the Loan Agreement and a corresponding Event of
Default under Section 6.1 (d) of the Loan Agreement; and
WHEREAS, Existing Borrowers have requested that Lender (a) consent to the Merger, (b) amend
the Loan Agreement to add PacketSmart as a “Borrower” under the Loan Agreement and (c) amend the
Loan Agreement in certain other respects as set forth herein.
NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual conditions and agreements set forth in the Loan
Agreement and this Amendment, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and
sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:
1. Joinder. Subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 6
below, and in reliance on the representations set forth in Section 7 below, the parties hereto
agree that PacketSmart is hereby joined to the Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents as a
“Borrower” and PacketSmart hereby agrees to be bound by all of the terms and conditions (including
without limitation all of the representations and warranties and covenants) of the Loan Agreement
and the other Loan Documents, as a “Borrower”, in each case as if PacketSmart were a direct
signatory thereto. In furtherance of the preceding sentence, without limiting any provision of the
Loan Agreement or any other Loan Document to which PacketSmart is now becoming a party as a
“Borrower”, and in accordance with the terms of the Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents,
PacketSmart (i) agrees to be jointly and severally liable with each other Borrower for the Loans
and other Obligations; (ii) grants a lien in all Collateral to secure all of the Loans and other
Obligations; and (iii) acknowledges and agrees that it has become a guarantor under and pursuant to
the provisions of Section 9 of the Loan Agreement and has agreed to the terms and conditions
regarding the “Suretyship Waivers” set forth in Exhibit C to the Loan Agreement.
While the Loan described in Section 1 of the Schedule to the Loan Agreement was made on or
around September 26, 2008 to certain of the Existing Borrowers (and not to PacketSmart), to limit
the number of changes to the Loan Agreement and other Loan Documents necessary to subject
PacketSmart to all of the terms and conditions thereof (including those described in the first
paragraph of this Section 1) the term “Borrower” is used to include PacketSmart even though such
Loan was not made to PacketSmart. PacketSmart unconditionally guaranties, and is jointly and
severally liable for, such Loan and all of the other Obligations.
2. Consent. Subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 6
below, and in reliance on the representations set forth in Section 7 below, Lender hereby consents
to the consummation of the Merger pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement. The foregoing is a
limited consent and shall not constitute a consent to or waiver of any other Defaults or Events of
Default that are now in existence or that may hereafter occur.
3. Amendments. Subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 6
below, and in reliance on the representations set forth in Section 7 below. the Loan Agreement is
amended as follows:

amended and restated ill its entirety as follows:
“Representations” means the (i) written Representations and Warranties
previously delivered by Parent to ORIX dated September 23, 2008; (ii) the written
Representations and Warranties delivered by Sylantro to ORIX dated December 15, 2008; and
(iii) the written Representations and Warranties regarding Packet Island, Inc, delivered by
Packet Island to ORIX dated October 8, 2009.
4. Collateral Assignment of Undertakings under Merger Agreement. To induce Lender to

(a) each of Parent and PacketSmart hereby collaterally assigns and grants to Lender, as
additional security for the payment and performance in full of the Obligations, a security interest

favor pursuant to the Merger Agreement (collectively, the “Undertakings”);
(b) each of Parent and PacketSmart agrees to (i) promptly notify Lender of each and every
material dispute with, and material claim against, any person or entity for which it has a claim

determine reasonably and in good faith that it would not be commercially reasonable to enforce any
such claim); and (iii) promptly provide Lender with copies of all material notices, demands,
requests and other material communications sent or received by it pursuant to the Merger Agreement
as well as prior written notice of its intention to exercise any power, right or remedy pursuant to
the Merger Agreement;
(c) in no event shall either Parent or PacketSmart, without the prior written consent of
Lender (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), waive, release or
discharge any person or entity with respect to any Undertaking or compromise or settle any claim or
dispute with respect to any such Undertaking, and no such waiver, release, discharge, compromise or
settlement shall be effective without the prior written consent of Lender;
(d) each of Parent and PacketSmart hereby irrevocably authorizes and empowers Lender as its
agent at any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default to (i)
either directly or its behalf, assert any claims and demands and enforce any rights and remedies as
it may have, from time to time, with respect to the Undertakings, as Lender may deem proper, and
(ii) receive and collect any and all proceeds, awards or amounts due under the Merger Agreement and
apply all such amounts on account of the Obligations in the manner described in Loan Agreement;
(e) each of Parent and PacketSmart hereby irrevocably makes, constitutes and appoints Lender
(and all officers, employees or agents designated by Lender) as its true and lawful attorney (and
agent-in-fact) for the purpose of enabling Lender or its agent to assert, at any time after the
occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, any claims and demands or enforce any
rights and remedies and receive and collect such proceeds, awards and amounts and to apply such
monies to the Obligations in the manner described in Loan Agreement; and
(f) Lender shall not be deemed to have assumed any of the obligations or liabilities of either
Parent or PacketSmart under the Merger Agreement by reason of this Section 4 or otherwise,
and Borrowers further agree to indemnify, protect, defend and hold Lender harmless from and with
respect to any claims or demands thereunder other than to the extent arising from the gross
negligence or willful misconduct by Lender as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction.

Carve-Out Plan at and after the Effective Time.
1.7 Treatment of Stock Options and Warrants.
(a) Parent is not assuming or continuing the Company Equity Plan or any equity plans
applicable to the employees or other service providers of the Company or its affiliates. Parent is
not continuing, assuming or substituting for any Company Options or other convertible securities
granted under the Company Equity Plan. At or immediately prior to the Effective Time, and in

of directors prior to the date hereof, the vesting and exercisability of all outstanding Company
Options granted under the Company Equity Plan shall be accelerated in full, and any such Company

take any actions which are necessary, including the providing of any requisite notice to each
holder of a Company Warrant prior to the Effective Time, to effectuate the provisions of this
Section 1.7(c).
1.8 Closing of the Company’s Transfer Books. At the Effective Time, holders of certificates
representing shares of the Company’s capital stock that were outstanding immediately prior to the
Effective Time (“Company Capital Stock”) shall cease to have any rights as stockholders of the
Company, and the stock transfer books of the Company shall be closed with respect to all shares of
such capital stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time. No further transfer of any
such shares of Company Capital Stock shall be made on such stock transfer books after the Effective
Time. If, after the Effective Time, a valid certificate previously representing any of such shares
of Company Capital Stock (a “Company Stock Certificate”) is presented to the Surviving Corporation
or Parent, such Company Stock Certificate shall be canceled.
1.9 Exchange of Notes; Full Satisfaction of Obligations.
(a) At or as soon as practicable after the Effective Time, Parent will send to the holders of
Company Notes instructions for use in effecting the surrender of Company Notes in exchange for
certificates representing Parent Series E-1 Preferred. Upon surrender of a Company Note to Parent
for exchange, with such other documents as may be reasonably required by Parent, the holder of such
Company Note shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor a certificate representing the
number of whole shares of Parent Series E-1 Preferred that such holder has the right to receive
pursuant to the provisions of this Section 1. Until surrendered as contemplated by this Section
1.9, each Company Note shall be deemed, from and after the Effective Time, to represent only the
right to receive upon such surrender a certificate representing shares of Parent Series E-1
Preferred (and cash in lieu of any fractional share of Parent Series E-1 Preferred) as contemplated
by this Section 1. If any Company Note shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, Parent may, in
its discretion and as a condition precedent to the issuance of any certificate representing shares
of Parent Series E-1 Preferred, require the owner of such lost, stolen or destroyed Company Note to
provide an appropriate affidavit and to deliver a bond (in such sum as Parent may reasonably
direct) as indemnity against any claim that may be made against Parent or the Surviving Corporation
with respect to such Company Note.
4.
(b) No dividends or other distributions declared or made with respect to Parent Series E-1
Preferred with a record date after the Effective Time shall be paid to the holder of any
unsurrendered Company Note with respect to the shares of Parent Series E-1 Preferred represented
thereby, and no cash payment in lieu of any fractional share shall be paid to any such holder,
until such holder surrenders such Company Note in accordance with this Section 1.9 (at which time
such holder shall be entitled to receive all such dividends and distributions and such cash
payment).
(c) No fractional shares of Parent Series E-1 Preferred shall be issued in connection with the
Merger, and no certificates for any such fractional shares shall be issued. In lieu of such
fractional shares, any holder of a Company Note who would otherwise be entitled to receive a
fraction of a share of Parent Series E-1 Preferred (after aggregating all fractional shares of
Parent Series E-1 Preferred issuable to such holder) shall, upon surrender of such holder’s Company
Note(s), be paid in cash the dollar amount (rounded to the nearest whole cent), without interest,
determined by multiplying such fraction by $1.00.
(d) Parent and the Surviving Corporation shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any
consideration payable or otherwise deliverable to any holder or former holder of Company Notes
pursuant to this Agreement such amounts as Parent or the Surviving Corporation may be required to
deduct or withhold therefrom under the Code or under any provision of state, local or foreign tax
law. To the extent such amounts are so deducted or withheld, such amounts shall be treated for all
purposes under this Agreement as having been paid to the Person to whom such amounts would
otherwise have been paid.
(e) Neither Parent nor the Surviving Corporation shall be liable to any holder or former
holder of Company Notes for any shares of Parent Series E-1 Preferred (or dividends or
distributions with respect thereto), or for any cash amounts, delivered to any public official
pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar law.
(f) The issuance of the shares of Parent Series E-1 Preferred upon cancellation and conversion
of the Company Notes at the Effective Time shall constitute full satisfaction of the Company’s and
Parent’s obligations under the Company Notes, and, at the Effective Time: (i) this Agreement shall
be deemed to amend and terminate each of the Company Notes, each of which shall be cancelled and of
no further force or effect as of the Effective Time; (ii) any and all obligations, liabilities,
claims, expenses, liens, actions, rights and interests the holders of the Company Notes have or may
have in the future arising under or related to the Company Notes or any agreement associated
therewith, including, without the limitation, the Note Purchase Agreements, are waived to the
fullest extent of the law and the Company and Parent (including any of their respective officers,
directors, employees, affiliates and successors and assigns) are hereby released from the same to
the fullest extent of the law; (iii) this Agreement shall be deemed to terminate all agreements
relating to the Company Notes, including, without limitation, the Note Purchase Agreements, which
agreements shall be of no further force or effect as of the Effective Time; and (iv) each of the
holders of the Company Notes hereby agrees to promptly take any further action and to execute any
and all additional documents or instruments requested by the Company or Parent to release the
Company and Parent (including any of their respective officers, directors, employees, affiliates
and successors and assigns) from their obligations under the Company Notes and any agreement
associated

1.10 Dissenting Shares. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, any share
of Company Capital Stock that is issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and
which is held by a stockholder who did not consent to or vote in favor of the approval of this
Agreement, which stockholder complies with all of the provisions of Section 262 of the DGCL and, if
applicable by virtue of Section 2115 of the CGCL, Chapter 13 of the CGCL, relevant to the exercise
of dissenters’ rights (such share being a “Dissenting Share,” and such stockholder being a
“Dissenting Stockholder”), shall not be entitled to receive any consideration pursuant to the terms
set forth in Section 1.5, but shall be converted into the right to receive such consideration as
may be determined to be due with respect to such Dissenting Share pursuant to Section 262 of the
DGCL and, if applicable by virtue of Section 2115 of the CGCL, Chapter 13 of the CGCL. If any

offer to settle, any such demand for payment at any time prior to the Closing, unless the Company

1.11 Aggregate Merger Consideration Adjustment.
(a) On the Closing Date, and subject to the terms and conditions contained herein (including,
without limitation, Section 7.14), the Aggregate Merger Consideration shall be subject to
adjustment in accordance with this Section 1.11. On the Closing Date, the Company will have (i) at
least $800,000 in Cash and (ii) at least $788,000 in Net Assets, each as of immediately prior to
the Effective Time, before giving effect to the Merger, but after payment of all fees, costs and
expenses of the type contemplated by Sections 2.23 (and Part 2.23 of the Company Disclosure
Schedule), 7.8(d), 7.8(e) and 11.3(b).
(b) Not later than three calendar days prior to the Closing Date, the Company will prepare and
deliver to Parent a balance sheet setting forth the Company’s good faith estimate of Cash and Net
Assets, as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, before giving effect to the Merger, but
after payment of all fees, costs and expenses of the type contemplated
6.
by Sections 2.23 (and Part 2.23 of the Company Disclosure Schedule), 7.8(d), 7.8(e) and
11.3(b) (the “Estimated Balance Sheet”) and a statement setting forth a detailed calculation of the
Estimated Balance Sheet Adjustment (as defined below) (collectively, the “Estimated Balance Sheet
Adjustment Statement”). The Estimated Balance Sheet Adjustment Statement will be prepared in
accordance with GAAP. As promptly as practicable, but not later than one calendar day prior to the
Closing Date, Parent shall notify the Company of any adjustments that it reasonably believes are
required to the Estimated Balance Sheet or the Estimated Balance Sheet Adjustment. Parent and the
Company shall use their reasonable best efforts to promptly resolve any dispute regarding such
adjustments prior to Closing, after which the Company will deliver a revised Estimated Balance
Sheet Adjustment Statement reflecting any agreed upon adjustments to the Estimated Balance Sheet or
Estimated Balance Sheet Adjustment. In the event that the Estimated Balance Sheet reflects Net
Assets in excess of $788,000, then, subject to Section 1.11(d) and Section 1.11(e) below, the
Aggregate Merger Consideration shall be increased, by the amount of such excess, by one share of
Parent Series E-1 Preferred for every one dollar of the excess (including fractions thereof, but
subject to Section 1.9(c)). “Estimated Balance Sheet Adjustment” means the amount of the total
excess as contemplated in the immediately preceding sentence which results in an increase to the
Aggregate Merger Consideration in accordance with this Section 1.11(b). Any additional shares of
Parent Series E-1 Preferred to be issued with respect to the Estimated Balance Sheet Adjustment
pursuant to this Section 1.11(b) shall be held in escrow by Parent pending the determination of the
Final Balance Sheet Adjustment pursuant to Sections 1.11 (c) and (d) below.
(c) Within sixty (60) days after the Closing Date, Parent shall prepare and deliver to the
Agent a statement setting forth the actual Cash and Net Assets, as of immediately prior to the
Effective Time, before giving effect to the Merger (the “Final Balance Sheet”) and a statement
setting forth a detailed calculation of the Final Balance Sheet Adjustment (as defined below)
(collectively, the “Closing Balance Sheet Adjustment Statement”). The Closing Balance Sheet
Adjustment Statement will be prepared in accordance with GAAP. The Agent may, upon reasonable
request, review the work papers used in Parent’s preparation of the Closing Balance Sheet
Adjustment Statement, and Parent shall make available to the Agent all such work papers or other
documents and information related thereto as may be reasonably requested by the Agent, subject to
the Agent’s execution of any access or similar letters reasonably requested by service providers
engaged by Parent in connection with Parent’s preparation of the Closing Balance Sheet Adjustment
Statement. If within ten (10) days following delivery of the Closing Balance Sheet Adjustment
Statement, the Agent has not given Parent notice of its objection to the Closing Balance Sheet
Adjustment Statement (such notice must contain a statement of the basis of the Agent’s objection),
then the Closing Balance Sheet Adjustment Statement will be used in computing the Final Balance
Sheet Adjustment. If the Agent gives such notice of objection, with a statement of the basis of
such objection, within such 10-day period, then Parent and the Agent shall meet promptly in an
attempt to resolve such objection. If Parent and the Agent are unable to resolve the Agent’s
objection in the 10-day period following Parent’s receipt of notice of the Agent’s objection, then
the issues in dispute will be submitted to a nationally recognized independent public accounting
firm that has not represented Parent or the Company (or any of their respective affiliates) in the
past five years as shall be agreed upon by Parent and the Agent or if Parent and the Agent cannot
agree, then Parent’s accountants and the Agent’s accountants shall select such independent public
accounting firm (the “Firm”) for resolution. If issues in dispute are submitted to the Firm for
7.
resolution, (i) each party will furnish to the Firm such work papers and other documents and
information relating to the disputed issues as the Firm may reasonably request and are available to
that party or its subsidiaries (or its independent public accountants), and will be afforded the
opportunity to present to the Firm any material relating to the determination and to discuss the
determination with the Firm; (ii) the determination by the Firm, as set forth in a notice delivered
to Parent and the Agent by the Firm, will be binding and conclusive on the parties; and (iii)
Parent and the Agent will each bear one-half of the fees of the Firm for such determination. In
deciding any issues in dispute, the Firm shall be bound by the provisions of this Section 1.11 and
may not assign a value to any item greater than the highest value for such item claimed by either
Parent or the Agent or less than the lowest value for such item claimed by Parent or the Agent.
The term “Final Balance Sheet Adjustment Statement” will mean the definitive Closing Balance Sheet
Adjustment Statement agreed to by Parent and the Agent in accordance with this Section 1.11(c) or
resulting from the determination made by the Firm in accordance with this Section 1.11(c).
(d) In the event that the Final Balance Sheet reflects Net Assets less than the Net Assets
reflected on the Estimated Balance Sheet, then, subject to Section 1.11(e) below, the Aggregate
Merger Consideration (including any increase thereto as previously determined pursuant to Section
1.11(b) above) shall be decreased by the amount of such shortfall, by one share of Parent Series
E-1 Preferred for every one dollar of the shortfall (including fractions thereof, but subject to
Section 1.9(c)). In the event that the Final Balance Sheet reflects Net Assets in excess of the
Net Assets reflected on the Estimated Balance Sheet, then, subject to Section 1.11(e) below, the
Aggregate Merger Consideration (including any increase thereto as previously determined pursuant to
Section 1.11(b) above) shall be increased by the amount of such excess, by one share of Parent
Series E-1 Preferred for every one dollar of the excess (including fractions thereof, but subject
to Section 1.9(c)). Any additional shares of Parent Series E-1 Preferred to be issued by Parent in
accordance with this Section 1.11, shall be issued to the holders of Class B Notes and the
Carve-Out Recipients on a pro rata basis in accordance with each such party’s pro rata portion of
the Aggregate Merger Consideration as set forth on Exhibits A-1 and A-2 attached hereto (and with
15% of such additional shares to be deposited into escrow pursuant to Section 10.2 below). “Final
Balance Sheet Adjustment” means the total amount of the excess or shortfall as contemplated above
which results in an increase or decrease, as the case may be, to the Aggregate Merger Consideration
(including any increase thereto as previously determined pursuant to Section 1.11(b) above) in
accordance with this Section 1.11(d) and subject to Section 1.11 (e) below.
(e) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 1.11, the aggregate amount of
additional shares of Parent Series E-1 Preferred issued pursuant to this Section 1.11 with respect
to the Estimated Balance Sheet Adjustment and the Final Balance Sheet Adjustment shall in no event
exceed a total of 100,000 shares of Parent Series E-1 Preferred, and in no event shall any decrease
in shares of Parent Series E-1 Preferred determined in accordance with Section 1.11(d) above,
result in an Aggregate Merger Consideration less than 1,500,000 shares of Parent Series E-1
Preferred.
1.12 Further Action. If, at any time after the Effective Time, any further action is
determined by Parent to be necessary or desirable to carry out the purposes of this Agreement or to
vest the Surviving Corporation or Parent with full right, title and possession of and to all rights
8.
and property of Merger Sub and the Company, the officers and directors of the Surviving
Corporation and Parent shall be fully authorized (in the name of Merger Sub, in the name of the
Company and otherwise) to take such action.

Employee Plan. Each Company Employee Plan (other than any Company Employee Plan to be terminated
prior to the Closing in accordance with this Agreement) can be amended, terminated or otherwise
discontinued after the Closing in accordance with its terms, without liability to Parent, the
Company or any Company Affiliate (other than ordinary administration expenses). There are no
audits, inquiries or Legal Proceedings pending or, to the Company’s Knowledge, threatened by the
IRS, DOL, or any other Governmental Body with respect to any Company Employee Plan. Neither the
Company nor any Company Affiliate has ever incurred any penalty or tax with respect to any Company
Employee Plan under Section 502(i) of ERISA or Sections 4975 through 4980 of the Code. The Company

any Company Affiliate has ever maintained, established, sponsored, participated in or contributed
to, any Company Pension Plan in which stock of the Company or any Company Affiliate is or was held
as a plan asset. The fair market value of the assets of each funded Foreign Plan, the liability of
each insurer for any Foreign Plan funded through insurance, or the book reserve established for any
Foreign Plan, together with any accrued contributions, is sufficient to procure or provide in full
for the accrued benefit obligations, with respect to all current and former participants in such
Foreign Plan according to the actuarial assumptions and valuations most recently used to determine
employer contributions to and obligations under such Foreign Plan, and no transaction contemplated
by this Agreement shall cause any such assets or insurance obligations to be less than such benefit
obligations.
(k) No Company Employee Plan provides (except at no cost to the Company or any Company
Affiliate), or reflects or represents any liability of the Company or any Company Affiliate to
provide, retiree life insurance, retiree health benefits or other retiree employee welfare benefits
to any Person for any reason, except as may be required by COBRA or other applicable Legal
Requirements. Other than commitments made that involve no future costs to the Company or any
Company Affiliate, neither the Company nor any Company Affiliate has ever represented, promised or
contracted (whether in oral or written form) to any Company Employee (either individually or to
Company Employees as a group) or any other
27.
Person that such Company Employee(s) or other person would be provided with retiree life
insurance, retiree health benefit or other retiree employee welfare benefits, except to the extent
required by applicable Legal Requirements.
(l) Except as expressly required or provided by this Agreement, neither the execution of this
Agreement nor the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby will (either alone or upon
the occurrence of any additional or subsequent events) constitute an event under any Company
Employee Plan, Company Employee Agreement, trust or loan that will or may result (either alone or
in connection with any other circumstance or event) in any payment (whether of severance pay or
otherwise), acceleration, forgiveness of indebtedness, vesting, distribution, increase in benefits
or obligation to fund benefits with respect to any Company Employee.
(m) The Company and each of the Company Affiliates: (i) are, and at all times have been, in
substantial compliance with all applicable Legal Requirements respecting employment, employment
practices, terms and conditions of employment and wages and hours, in each case, with respect to
Company Employees, including the health care continuation requirements of COBRA, the requirements
of FMLA, the requirements of HIPAA and any similar provisions of state law; (ii) have withheld and
reported all amounts required by applicable Legal Requirements or by Contract to be withheld and
reported with respect to wages, salaries and other payments to Company Employees; (iii) are not
liable for any arrears of wages or any taxes or any penalty for failure to comply with the Legal
Requirements applicable of the foregoing; and (iv) are not liable for any payment to any trust or
other fund governed by or maintained by or on behalf of any Governmental Body with respect to
unemployment compensation benefits, social security or other benefits or obligations for Company
Employees (other than routine payments to be made in the normal course of business and consistent
with past practice). There are no pending or, to the Company’s Knowledge, threatened claims or
Legal Proceedings against the Company or any Company Affiliate under any worker’s compensation
policy or long-term disability policy.

Specified Representations shall survive the Closing indefinitely; (ii) the Tax Representations
shall survive the Closing and then terminate and expire upon the expiration of the applicable

warranty, covenant or other matter to which a party is entitled to indemnification hereunder shall
be deemed to have been given if any party, acting in good faith, delivers to the other party(s) a
written notice stating that such party believes that there is or has been a possible breach of such
representation, warranty or covenant, or that such party is otherwise entitled to indemnification
hereunder, and containing (i) a brief description of the circumstances supporting such party’s
belief that there is or has been such a possible breach or that such party is entitled to
indemnification, and (ii) to the extent possible, a non-binding, preliminary estimate of the

indemnification.

10.2 Funding of Escrow.
(a) At the Closing, Parent shall deposit the Escrow Amount with the Escrow Agent in accordance
with the Escrow Agreement. The Escrow Amount shall be withheld from amounts otherwise payable to
the holders of the Class A-2 Notes, Class B Notes and Carve-Out Recipients, on a pro rata basis, as
reflected on Exhibit I attached hereto. The Escrow Amount will be governed by the terms set forth
in the Escrow Agreement and shall be held for the purpose of indemnifying the Parent Indemnitees
pursuant to the indemnification provisions set forth in this Section 10.
(b) The Indemnifying Parties who are entitled to receive shares of Parent Series E-1 Preferred

(such as voting and dividend rights) until their disbursement back to the Parent in satisfaction of
indemnification claims. In the event that the Parent completes an initial public offering of
shares of its Common Stock pursuant to a registration statement under the Securities Act declared
effective by the SEC, such Indemnifying Parties will have the ability to direct the sale of the
Escrow Amount (subject to lock-up obligations and other restrictions on transfer) as long as all
proceeds from the sales are placed into the escrow for any remaining escrow period and become
available for indemnification claims under Section 10.3.
10.3 Indemnification of Parent Indemnitees.
(a) Subject to the provisions of this Section 10, from and after the Effective Time, the
Parent Indemnitees shall be held harmless and indemnified from and against all Damages that the
Parent Indemnitees or any of them may incur based upon, arising out of or otherwise in any way
related to:
(i) any inaccuracy in or breach of any representation or warranty set forth in Sections 2 or 3
as of the date of this Agreement (without giving effect to any update to the Company Disclosure
Schedule);
(ii) any inaccuracy in or breach of any representation or warranty set forth in Sections 2 or
3 as if such representation and warranty had been made on and as of the Closing Date (without
giving effect to any update to the Company Disclosure Schedule);

Noteholders or Carve-Out Recipients contained in this Agreement;
(iv) any matter identified or referred to in Part 2.21 of the Company Disclosure Schedule;

attributable to all Pre-Closing Tax Periods, (B) all Taxes of any member of an affiliated,
consolidated, combined or unitary group for which the Company or any Company Subsidiary (or any
predecessor thereof) is liable, including pursuant to Treasury Regulation Section 1.1502-6 or any
analogous or similar state, local, or foreign law or regulation, and (C) any and all Taxes of any
person imposed on the Company or any Company Subsidiary
52.
as a transferee or successor, by contract or pursuant to any law, rule, or regulation, which
Taxes relate to an event or transaction occurring before the Closing Date;
(vi) any Dissenting Share Liability;
(vii) any inaccuracy in or breach of the representations set forth in Section 2.7(c) or, any
failure by the Company to satisfy Sections 7.14 or 7.16, any Company Indebtedness not paid by the
Company at the Closing or any Company Note Liability; or
(viii) any Legal Proceeding directly or indirectly relating to any breach, alleged breach,
liability or matter of the type referred to in clause “(i),” “(ii),” “(iii),” “(iv),” “(v)”,
“(vi)”, or “(vii)” above (including any Legal Proceeding commenced by any Parent Indemnitee for the
purpose of enforcing any of his, her or its rights under this Section 10).
(b) The Company and the Indemnifying Parties acknowledge and agree that, if the Surviving
Corporation suffers, incurs or otherwise becomes subject to any Damages as a result of or in
connection with any inaccuracy in or breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or obligation
or other matter referred to in Section 10.3(a), then (without limiting any of the rights of the
Surviving Corporation as a Parent Indemnitee) Parent shall also be deemed, by virtue of its
ownership of the stock of the Surviving Corporation, to have incurred Damages as a result of and in
connection with such matters.
(c) The Parent Indemnitees shall not be entitled to any indemnification payment pursuant to
Sections 10.3(a)(i) or 10.3(a)(ii) for any inaccuracy in or breach as set forth in such Sections
(other than any inaccuracy in or breach of the representations contained in Sections 2.7(c) and
2.23) or pursuant to Section 10.3(a)(viii) to the extent that it relates to the matters referenced
in Sections 10.3(a)(i) or 10.3(a)(ii) (other than any inaccuracy in or breach of the
representations contained in Sections 2.7(c) and 2.23), until such time as the total amount of all
Damages (including the Damages arising from such inaccuracy in or breach and all other Damages
arising from any other inaccuracies in or breaches of any representations or warranties set forth
in Sections 2 or 3) that have been directly or indirectly suffered or incurred by any one or more
of the Parent Indemnitees, or to which any one or more of the Parent Indemnitees has or have
otherwise become subject, exceeds $25,000 in the aggregate (the “Threshold Amount”). At such time
as the cumulative amount of such Damages exceeds the Threshold Amount in the aggregate, the Parent
Indemnitees shall be entitled to recover only the amount of such Damages in excess of the Threshold
Amount.
(d) Except with respect to inaccuracies in or breaches of the Specified Representations, Tax
Representations, Benefits Representations and IP Representations or in the case of fraud, willful
misrepresentation or intentional misconduct, the Parent Indemnitees shall not be entitled to any
indemnification payment pursuant to Sections 10.3(a)(i) or 10.3(a)(ii) for any inaccuracy in or
breach as set forth in such Sections (other than any inaccuracy in or breach of the representations
contained in Sections 2.7(c) and 2.23) or pursuant to Section 10.3(a)(viii) to the extent that it
relates to the matters referenced in Sections 10.3(a)(i) or 10.3(a)(ii) (other than any inaccuracy
in or breach of the representations contained in Sections 2.7(c) and 2.23), in excess of an
aggregate amount equal to the Escrow Amount (the “Cap Amount”), and in no event shall the liability
of any Indemnifying Party exceed such Person’s Pro Rata Share of the
53.
Cap Amount. In all cases (including with respect to inaccuracies in or breaches of the
Specified Representations, Tax Representations, Benefits Representations and IP Representations and
in the case of fraud, willful misrepresentation or intentional misconduct), the maximum liability
shall not exceed $700,000 (the “Maximum Amount”), and in no event shall the liability of any
Indemnifying Party exceed such Person’s Pro Rata Share of the Maximum Amount.
10.4 Indemnification of Company Indemnitees.
(a) Subject to the provisions of this Section 10, from and after the Effective Time, the
Parent shall hold harmless and indemnify the Company Indemnitees from and against all Damages that
the Company Indemnitees or any of them may incur based upon, arising out of or otherwise in any way
related to:
(i) any inaccuracy in or breach of any representation or warranty set forth in Section 4 as of
the date of this Agreement (without giving effect to any update to the Parent Disclosure Schedule);
(ii) any inaccuracy in or breach of any representation or warranty set forth in Section 4 as
if such representation and warranty had been made on and as of the Closing Date (without giving
effect to any update to the Parent Disclosure Schedule);
(iii) any breach of any covenant or obligation of the Parent contained in this Agreement; or
(iv) any Legal Proceeding directly or indirectly to any breach, alleged breach, liability or
matter of the type referred to in clause “(i),” “(ii),” or “(iii)” above (including any Legal
Proceeding commenced by any Company Indemnitee for the purpose of enforcing any of his, her or its
rights under this Section 10).
(b) Subject to Section 10.4(d), the Company Indemnitees shall not be entitled to any
indemnification payment pursuant to Sections 10.4(a)(i) or 10.4(a)(ii) for any inaccuracy in or
breach as set forth in such Sections or pursuant to Section 10.4(a)(iv) to the extent that it
relates to the matters referenced in Sections 10.4(a)(i) or 10.4(a)(ii), until such time as the
total amount of all Damages (including the Damages arising from such inaccuracy in or breach and
all other Damages arising from any other inaccuracies in or breaches of any representations or
warranties set forth in Section 4) that have been directly or indirectly suffered or incurred by
any one or more of the Company Indemnitees, or to which any one or more of the Company Indemnitees
has or have otherwise become subject, exceeds the Threshold Amount. At such time as the cumulative
amount of such Damages exceeds the Threshold Amount in the aggregate, the Company Indemnitees shall
be entitled to recover only the amount of such Damages in excess of the Threshold Amount.
(c) Subject to Section 10.4(d), the Company Indemnitees shall not be entitled to any
indemnification payment pursuant to Sections 10.4(a)(i) or 10.4(a)(ii) for any inaccuracy in or
breach as set forth in such Sections or pursuant to Section 10.4(a)(iv) to the extent that it
relates to the matters referenced in Sections 10.4(a)(i) or 10.4(a)(ii), in excess of an aggregate
amount equal to the Cap Amount.
54.
(d) The limitations set forth in Sections 10.4(b) and 10.4(c) shall not apply in the case of
fraud, willful misrepresentation or intentional misconduct, in which case the maximum
indemnification payments to which the Company Indemnitees shall be entitled to receive shall be
limited to the Maximum Amount.
10.5 Satisfaction of Parent Indemnitee Indemnification Claims.
(a) For the purpose of recovering indemnification payments for which the Parent Indemnitees
may be entitled under this Section 10, the Parent shall first seek satisfaction of any such
indemnification obligations from the property held under the Escrow Agreement. Subject to the
limitations contained in this Section 10, if the Parent Indemnitees are not, following such
delivery and set-off, completely indemnified (the amount of such Damages which are not so
indemnified are referred to as “Unsatisfied Damages”), the Indemnifying Parties, severally and not
jointly, shall hold harmless and indemnify the Parent Indemnitees from and against all Unsatisfied
Damages, with such recovery to be effected first via delivery of shares of Parent Series E-1
Preferred and only after exhausting all shares of Parent Series E-1 Preferred held by the
Indemnifying Parties, if still not completely indemnified, subject to the limitations in this
Section 10, in cash.
(b) To the extent that any indemnification obligations are to be satisfied by delivery of
shares of Parent Series E-1 Preferred (or other property) held under the Escrow Agreement, such
obligations shall be satisfied by disbursing (a) a number of shares of Parent Series E-1 Preferred
to the Parent determined by dividing (i) the aggregate dollar amount of such obligations by (ii)
$1.00 (as adjusted as appropriate to reflect any stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend,
recapitalization, merger, reorganization, reclassification or other similar transaction effected by
Parent between the Effective Time and the date such obligation is satisfied), or (b) if the shares
of Parent Series E-1 Preferred have been sold, the aggregate dollar amount of such obligations. If
the shares of Parent Series E-1 Preferred have been converted into shares of Parent Common Stock,
then equitable adjustments in the foregoing formula shall be made to take into account the relative
conversion ratio.
10.6 Indemnification Procedures.
(a) The indemnified party (or parties) shall promptly notify the indemnifying party (or
parties) of any third-party claim, demand, action or Legal Proceeding for which indemnification
will or may be sought under Sections 10.3 or 10.4 (a “Third Party Claim”), but in no event later
than ten (10) business days after receiving notice of such Third Party Claim; provided, however,
that the failure to so notify the indemnifying party will not relieve the indemnifying party from
liability hereunder in respect of such claim except to the extent the indemnifying party is
prejudiced as a result of such failure, including where failure results in losses to the
indemnifying party or the forfeiture of substantive rights or defenses that would otherwise be
available in the defense of such claim. Such notice shall specify facts reasonably known to the
indemnified party (or parties) giving rise to such indemnity rights. The indemnifying party will
have the right, at its expense, to assume the defense thereof using counsel reasonably acceptable
to the indemnified party. If the indemnifying party elects not to assume the defense or fails to
notify the indemnified party within ten (10) business days after delivery of the indemnified
party’s notice of such Third Party Claim, that it will assume the
55.
defense, then the indemnified party may employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to the
indemnifying party to represent or defend it against any such Third Party Claim and the
indemnifying party will pay the reasonable fees and disbursements of such counsel; provided,
however, that the indemnifying party shall not, in connection with any Legal Proceeding or any
separate but substantially similar Legal Proceedings arising out of the same general allegations,
be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one separate firm of attorneys at any time for all
indemnified persons, except to the extent that local counsel, in addition to its regular counsel,
is required to effectively defend against such Legal Proceeding. If the indemnifying party does
assume the defense of such Third Party Claim, the indemnifying party shall have no obligation in
respect of the indemnified party’s expenses; provided, that the indemnified party shall have the
right to participate in, at its own expense, but not control, the defense of any such Third Party
Claim. In connection with any Third Party Claim, the Parties shall cooperate with each other in
good faith in such manner to preserve in full (to the extent possible) the confidentiality of all
business records and the attorney-client work-product and any other potentially applicable
privileges and to render each other assistance as they may reasonably require. No Third Party
Claim shall be settled (i) without the prior written consent of the indemnifying party and (ii)
without the prior written consent of the indemnified party unless such settlement provides for no
relief other than the payment of monetary damages for which the relevant indemnified parties will
be indemnified in full.
(b) As soon as reasonably practicable after becoming aware of a direct claim for
indemnification under Sections 10.3 or 10.4 other than a Third Party Claim (a “Direct Claim”), the
indemnified party (or parties) shall give a Claim Notice to the indemnifying party (or parties)
providing indemnification under this Section 10, as applicable, of such Direct Claim; provided,
however, that the failure to so notify the indemnifying party will not relieve the indemnifying
party from liability hereunder in respect of such claim except to the extent the indemnifying party
is prejudiced as a result of such failure. If the indemnified party is a Parent Indemnitee and is
seeking to enforce such claim pursuant to the Escrow Agreement, the indemnifying party shall
deliver a copy of the Claim Notice to the Escrow Agent.
(c) Within twenty (20) days after receipt by the indemnifying party of a Claim Notice, the
indemnifying party may deliver to the indemnified party a written response (the “Response Notice”)
in which the indemnifying party: (i) agrees that the full Claimed Amount (the “Full Amount”) is
owed to the indemnified party (in which case the Response Notice shall be accompanied by a payment
by the indemnifying party to the indemnified party of the Claimed Amount, by check or by wire
transfer; provided, that if the indemnified party is a Parent Indemnitee and is seeking to enforce
such claim pursuant to the Escrow Agreement, the indemnifying party shall also deliver a copy of
the Response Notice to the Escrow Agent and instruct the Escrow Agent to disburse the Full Amount
to the indemnified party); (ii) agrees that part, but not all, of the Claimed Amount (the “Agreed
Amount”) is owed to the indemnified party (in which case the Response Notice shall be accompanied
by a payment by the indemnifying party to the indemnified party of the Agreed Amount, by check or
by wire transfer; provided, that if the indemnified party is a Parent Indemnitee and is seeking to
enforce such claim pursuant to the Escrow Agreement, the indemnifying party shall also deliver a
copy of the Response Notice to the Escrow Agent and instruct the Escrow Agent to disburse the
Agreed Amount to the indemnified party); or (iii) indicates that no part of the Claimed Amount is
owed to the indemnified party. Any part of the Claimed Amount that is not agreed to be released to
the
56.
indemnified party pursuant to the Response Notice shall be the “Contested Amount.” If the
Response Notice is not received by the indemnified party within such 20-day period, then the
indemnifying party shall be conclusively deemed to have agreed that the Full Amount is owed to the
indemnified party.
(d) If the indemnifying party delivers a Response Notice indicating that there is a Contested
Amount, the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall attempt in good faith to resolve the
dispute related to the Contested Amount. If the indemnified party and the indemnifying party
resolve such dispute, such resolution shall be binding on the indemnifying party and the
indemnified party, and if the indemnified party is Parent Indemnitee, a settlement agreement shall
be signed by the indemnified party and the indemnifying party and sent to the Escrow Agent.
(e) In all cases under Section 10, if the indemnified party is a Parent Indemnitee, the
indemnifying party shall deliver a copy of the Claim Notice and all other related notices hereunder
to the Agent.
10.7 No Contribution. Each Indemnifying Party waives, acknowledges and agrees that he, she or
it shall not have and shall not exercise or assert (or attempt to exercise or assert), any right of
contribution, right of indemnity or other right or remedy against the Surviving Corporation in
connection with any indemnification obligation or any other liability to which he, she or it may
become subject under or in connection with this Agreement.
10.8 Exercise of Remedies by Parent Indemnitees Other Than Parent. No Parent Indemnitee
(other than Parent or any successor thereto or assign thereof) shall be permitted to assert any
indemnification claim or exercise any other remedy under this Agreement unless Parent (or any
successor thereto or assign thereof) shall have consented to the assertion of such indemnification
claim or the exercise of such other remedy.

fully binding upon such Signing Noteholder or Carve-Out Recipient. If the Agent shall die, become

Noteholders and Carve-Out Recipients, then the Signing Noteholders and Carve-Out Recipients shall,
within ten days after such death or disability, appoint a successor agent and, promptly thereafter,

time, all references herein to the Agent shall be deemed to refer to the Signing Noteholders and

11.10 Governing Law; Venue for Disputes; Specific Performance; Appointment.
(a) This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with, and governed in all respects by, the
internal laws of the State of Delaware (without giving effect to principles of conflicts of laws).
(b) Except as provided in Section 11.10(d) below, any Legal Proceeding relating to this
Agreement or the enforcement of any provision of this Agreement may be
60.
brought or otherwise commenced in any state or federal court located in Wilmington, Delaware.
Each party to this Agreement:
(i) expressly and irrevocably consents and submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of each state
and federal court located in Wilmington, Delaware (and each appellate court located in Wilmington,
Delaware) in connection with any such Legal Proceeding;
(ii) agrees that each state and federal court located in Wilmington, Delaware shall be deemed
to be a convenient forum;
(iii) agrees not to assert (by way of motion, as a defense or otherwise), in any such Legal
Proceeding commenced in any state or federal court located in Wilmington, Delaware, any claim that
such party is not subject personally to the jurisdiction of such court, that such Legal Proceeding
has been brought in an inconvenient forum, that the venue of such Legal Proceeding is improper or
that this Agreement or the subject matter of this Agreement may not be enforced in or by such
court; and
(iv) agrees that a final judgment in any Legal Proceeding in any such court shall be
conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other
manner provided by law.
(c) Each party hereto irrevocably and unconditionally waives any right it may have to a trial
by jury in respect of any Legal Proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any of
the transactions contemplated hereby.
(d) Each party hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to submit to binding
arbitration any dispute between any such party of any claim by a party against another party
arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated hereby, or
relating to any alleged breach hereof or thereof, in accordance with the rules then in force of the
American Arbitration Association. The arbitration proceedings shall take place in Wilmington,
Delaware or such other location as the parties in dispute may agree upon. The arbitration
proceedings shall be subject to the substantive laws of the State of Delaware. There shall be one
arbitrator, as agreed upon by the parties in dispute, who shall be an individual skilled in the
legal and business aspects of the subject matter of this Agreement and of the dispute. In the
absence of such an agreement, each party in dispute shall select one arbitrator and the arbitrators
so selected shall select a third arbitrator. In the event the arbitrators cannot agree upon the
selection of a third arbitrator, such third arbitrator shall be appointed by the American
Arbitration Association at the request of any of the parties in dispute. The decision rendered by
the arbitrator shall be accompanied by a written opinion in support thereof. Such decision shall
be final and binding upon the parties in dispute without any right of appeal. Judgment upon any
such decision may be entered into in any court having jurisdiction thereof, or application may be
made to such court for a judicial acceptance of the decision in an order of enforcement. Costs of
the arbitration shall be assessed by the arbitrator against all or any of the parties in dispute
and shall be paid promptly by the party or parties so assessed.
(e) A request by a party to a court for interim equitable or injunctive relief to protect and
secure his, her or its rights under this Agreement pending arbitration shall not be
61.
deemed to be a waiver of the right to arbitrate. Furthermore, each party to this Agreement
irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to submit any such request exclusively to a state or federal
court located in Wilmington, Delaware. Each party to this Agreement hereby irrevocably and
unconditionally consents to the personal jurisdiction of such courts and hereby further irrevocably
and unconditionally waives and agrees not to plead or claim in any such court any defense that such
court does not have personal jurisdiction over him, her or it; each party to this Agreement hereby
irrevocably and unconditionally waives any objection to the laying of venue of any action, suit or
proceeding arising out of such request in such courts and hereby further irrevocably and
unconditionally waives and agrees not to plead or claim in any such court that any such action,
suit or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an improper venue or in an
inconvenient forum.
(f) Nothing in this Agreement will limit any party’s right to seek immediate injunctive or
other equitable relief whenever the facts or circumstances would permit a party to seek such relief
in any court specified in Section 11.10(b).
11.11 Successors and Assigns.
(a) This Agreement shall be binding upon: the Company and its successors and permitted
assigns (if any); the Signing Noteholders and Carve-Out Recipients and their respective successors
and permitted assigns (if any); and Parent and Merger Sub, and their successors and permitted
assigns (if any). This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of: the Company, the Signing
Noteholders, the Carve-Out Recipients, Parent, Merger Sub, the other Parent Indemnitees, and the
respective successors and permitted assigns (if any) of the foregoing.
(b) Neither this Agreement nor any rights or obligations hereunder may be assigned by any
party hereto without the prior written consent of the other parties hereto, which consent may not
be unreasonably withheld; provided, that notwithstanding the foregoing, no consent of the Company,
the Signing Noteholders or the Carve-Out Recipients shall be required with respect to any
assignment by Parent or Merger Sub to any lender as part of a collateral assignment. Any attempted
or purported assignment by any party of this Agreement in violation of this Section 11.11 shall be
null and void.
11.12 Remedies Cumulative; Specific Performance. The rights and remedies of the parties
hereto shall be cumulative (and not alternative). The parties to this Agreement agree that, in the
event of any breach or threatened breach by any party to this Agreement of any covenant, obligation
or other provision set forth in this Agreement for the benefit of any other party to this
Agreement, such other party shall be entitled (in addition to any other remedy that may be
available to it) to (a) a decree or order of specific performance or mandamus to enforce the
observance and performance of such covenant, obligation or other provision, and (b) an injunction
restraining such breach or threatened breach.
11.13 Waiver.
(a) No failure on the part of any Person to exercise any power, right, privilege or remedy
under this Agreement, and no delay on the part of any Person in exercising any power, right,
privilege or remedy under this Agreement, shall operate as a waiver of such power, right,
62.
privilege or remedy; and no single or partial exercise of any such power, right, privilege or
remedy shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof or of any other power, right, privilege
or remedy.
(b) No Person shall be deemed to have waived any claim arising out of this Agreement, or any
power, right, privilege or remedy under this Agreement, unless the waiver of such claim, power,
right, privilege or remedy is expressly set forth in a written instrument duly executed and
delivered on behalf of such Person; and any such waiver shall not be applicable or have any effect
except in the specific instance in which it is given.
11.14 Amendments. This Agreement may not be amended, modified, altered or supplemented other
than by means of a written instrument duly executed and delivered on behalf of all of the parties
hereto.
11.15 Severability. Any term or provision of this Agreement that is invalid or unenforceable
in any situation in any jurisdiction shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the
remaining terms and provisions hereof or the validity or enforceability of the offending term or
provision in any other situation or in any other jurisdiction. If the final judgment of a court of
competent jurisdiction declares that any term or provision hereof is invalid or unenforceable, the
parties hereto agree that the court making such determination shall have the power to limit the
term or provision, to delete specific words or phrases, or to replace any invalid or unenforceable
term or provision with a term or provision that is valid and enforceable and that comes closest to
expressing the intention of the invalid or unenforceable term or provision, and this Agreement
shall be enforceable as so modified. In the event such court does not exercise the power granted
to it in the prior sentence, the parties hereto agree to replace such invalid or unenforceable term
or provision with a valid and enforceable term or provision that will achieve, to the extent
possible, the economic, business and other purposes of such invalid or unenforceable term.
11.16 Parties in Interest. Except for the provisions of Sections 1.5, 1.6 and 10, none of the
provisions of this Agreement is intended to provide any rights or remedies to any Person other than
the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns (if any). Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, (a) no employee of the Company shall have any rights under this
Agreement or under any of the other agreements related to the Merger, and (b) no creditor of the
Company shall have any rights under this Agreement or any other agreements related to the Merger.
11.17 Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the other agreements referred to herein set forth
the entire understanding of the parties hereto relating to the subject matter hereof and thereof
and supersede all prior agreements and understandings among or between any of the parties relating
to the subject matter hereof and thereof; provided, however, that the Non-Disclosure Agreement
shall not be superseded by this Agreement and shall remain in effect in accordance with its terms
until the earlier of (a) the Effective Time, or (b) the date on which such Non-Disclosure Agreement
is terminated in accordance with its terms.

include the plural, and vice versa; the masculine gender shall include the feminine and neuter
genders; the feminine gender shall include the masculine and neuter genders; and the neuter gender
shall include the masculine and feminine genders.
(b) The parties hereto agree that any rule of construction to the effect that ambiguities are
to be resolved against the drafting party shall not be applied in the construction or
interpretation of this Agreement.
(c) For the purpose of analyzing whether any effect is “material” or constitutes a “Material
Adverse Effect” for any purpose under this Agreement, the analysis of materiality shall not be
limited to a long-term perspective (and whether any effect is or might be short-term, temporary or
cyclical in nature shall not be dispositive of its materiality).
(d) As used in this Agreement, the words “include” and “including,” and variations thereof,
shall not be deemed to be terms of limitation, but rather shall be deemed to be followed by the
words “without limitation.”
