(a) Upon the terms and subject to the satisfaction or, to the extent provided herein, the waiver, of the conditions set forth in this Agreement, and in accordance with the DGCL, at the Effective Time, Merger Sub will be merged with and into the Company. As a result of the Merger, the separate corporate existence of Merger Sub will cease, and the Company will continue as the surviving corporation in the Merger (the “Surviving Corporation”).

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, at the Effective Time, all of the property, rights, privileges, immunities, powers and franchises of the Company and Merger Sub will vest in the Surviving Corporation, and all of the debts, liabilities and duties of the Company and Merger Sub will become the debts, liabilities and duties of the Surviving Corporation.

In addition, the bylaws of Merger Sub in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time shall thereafter be the bylaws of the Surviving Corporation (other than in respect of the name of the Surviving Corporation), until thereafter amended as provided therein or by applicable Law.

(c) The directors of Merger Sub immediately prior to the Effective Time will, from and after the Effective Time, be the initial directors of the Surviving Corporation, each to hold office in accordance with the certificate of incorporation and bylaws of the Surviving Corporation until their respective successors have been duly elected, designated or qualified, or until their earlier death, resignation or removal in accordance with the certificate of incorporation and bylaws of the Surviving Corporation. The officers of Merger Sub immediately prior to the Effective Time, from and after the Effective Time, will be the officers of the Surviving Corporation, each to hold office in accordance with the certificate of incorporation and bylaws of the Surviving Corporation until their respective successors have been duly elected, designated or qualified, or until their earlier death, resignation or removal in accordance with the certificate of incorporation and bylaws of the Surviving Corporation.

(d) If at any time after the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation determines, in its sole discretion, or is advised, that any deeds, bills of sale, instruments of conveyance, assignments, assurances or any other actions or things are necessary or desirable to vest, perfect or confirm of record or otherwise in the Surviving Corporation its right, title or interest in, to or under any of the rights, properties or assets of either of the Company or Merger Sub acquired or to be acquired by the Surviving Corporation as a result of, or in connection with, the Merger or otherwise to carry out this Agreement, then the officers and directors of the Surviving Corporation shall be authorized to execute and deliver, in the name and on behalf of either the Company or Merger Sub, all such deeds, bills of sale, instruments of conveyance, assignments and assurances and to take and do, in the name and on behalf of each of such corporations or otherwise, all such other actions and things as may be necessary or desirable

to vest, perfect or confirm any and all right, title or interest in, to and under such rights, properties or assets in the Surviving Corporation or otherwise to carry out this Agreement.

1.2 Closing and Effective Time of the Merger. The closing of the Merger (the “Closing”) will take place at 8:00 a.m., Eastern time, on the second Business Day (the “Closing Date”) after satisfaction or waiver of all of the conditions set forth in Article 6 (other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing, but subject to the fulfillment or waiver of those conditions at the Closing), at the offices of Fried, Frank, Harris, Xxxxxxx & Xxxxxxxx LLP, One New York Plaza, New York, New York, unless another time, date or place is agreed to by the parties hereto. Substantially contemporaneously with the Closing, or on such other date or at such other time as Parent and the Company may agree to in writing, the Company will cause the certificate of merger in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B (subject to such changes as may be mutually agreed to by Parent and the Company, the “Certificate of Merger”) to be duly executed and filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware in accordance with the relevant provisions of the DGCL and will make all other filings or recordings required under the DGCL. The Merger will become effective at the time the Certificate of Merger will have been duly filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware or such later date and time as is agreed upon by the parties and specified in the Certificate of Merger, such date and time hereinafter referred to as the “Effective Time.”

ARTICLE 2
CONVERSION OF SECURITIES IN THE MERGER

2.1 Conversion of Securities. At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of Parent, Merger Sub, the Company or the holders of any of the following securities:

(a) Conversion of Company Common Stock. Each Share of Company Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than Shares to be cancelled in accordance with Section 2.1(c) and other than Dissenting Shares) will be automatically converted into the right to receive, at the election of the holder thereof in accordance with, and subject to, the terms, conditions and procedures set forth in this Article II (including the proration procedures in Section 2.2(d)), the following consideration (the “Merger Consideration”), in each case without interest: (i) the combination (such election, a “Mixed Election”) of (A) $52.85 in cash (the “Mixed Cash Consideration”) and (B) 0.6677 validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable Parent Shares (the “Mixed Stock Consideration” and together with the Mixed Cash Consideration, the “Mixed Election Consideration”), (ii) (such election, a “Cash Election”) $88.08 in cash (the “Cash Election Consideration”), or (iii) (such election, a “Stock Election”) 1.6693 validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable Parent Shares (the “Stock Election Consideration”), in the case of each such election, payable to the holder upon surrender of the Certificate or Book-Entry Share formerly representing such Share in accordance with Section 2.2 and Section 2.3. At the Effective Time, all of the Shares of Company Common Stock converted into the Merger Consideration pursuant to this Section 2.1(a) shall cease to be outstanding, shall be cancelled and shall cease to exist, and each Certificate or Book-Entry Share that immediately prior to the Effective Time represented any such Shares shall thereafter represent only the right to receive the Merger Consideration, without interest, including the right to receive, pursuant to Section 2.6, cash in lieu of fractional shares of Parent Shares, if any, which would otherwise be issuable in respect of such Company Common Stock pursuant to this Section 2.1(a) (the “Fractional Share Consideration”), together with the amounts, if any, payable pursuant to Section 2.3(f).

(b) Conversion of Company Preferred Stock. Each Share of Company Preferred Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than Shares to be cancelled in accordance with Section 2.1(c) and other than Dissenting Shares) will be deemed converted

into shares of Company Common Stock pursuant to Section 2.2 of the Preferred Certificate of Designation and such Shares of Company Common Stock will be automatically converted into the right to receive, at the election of the holder thereof in accordance with, and subject to, the terms, conditions and procedures set forth in this Article II (including the proration procedures in Section 2.2(d)), the Merger Consideration in accordance with Section 2.1(a), in the case of each such election, payable to the holder upon surrender of the Certificate or Book-Entry Share formerly representing such Share in accordance with Section 2.2 and Section 2.3. At the Effective Time, all of the Shares converted into the Merger Consideration pursuant to this Section 2.1(b) shall cease to be outstanding, shall be cancelled and shall cease to exist, and each Certificate or Book-Entry Share that immediately prior to the Effective Time represented any such Shares shall thereafter represent only the right to receive the Merger Consideration, without interest, including the right to receive pursuant to Section 2.6, if applicable, any Fractional Share Consideration, together with the amounts, if any, payable pursuant to Section 2.3(f).

(c) Cancellation of Treasury Stock and Parent-Owned Stock. All Shares that are held in the treasury of the Company, and all Shares owned of record by Parent, Merger Sub or any wholly-owned Subsidiaries of the Company, Parent or Merger Sub, will be cancelled and will cease to exist, with no payment being made with respect thereto.

(d) Merger Sub Common Stock. Each share of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of Merger Sub (the “Merger Sub Common Stock”) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time will be converted into and become one newly and validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable share of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Surviving Corporation, and such shares shall constitute the only outstanding shares of capital stock of the Surviving Corporation. From and after the Effective Time, all certificates representing Merger Sub Common Stock shall be deemed for all purposes to represent the number of shares of common stock of the Surviving Corporation into which they were converted in accordance with the preceding sentence.

2.2 Election and Proration Procedures.

(a) Parent shall prepare and file an election form in such form and substance reasonably acceptable to Parent and the Company (which form shall include the items described in clause (i) and (ii) of Section 2.3(b)) (the “Election Form”) as an exhibit to the Registration Statement. Parent shall direct and cause the Exchange Agent to mail the Election Form with the Proxy Statement/Prospectus to all persons who are record holders of the Shares as of the record date for the Company Stockholder Meeting (the “Mailing Date”). Each Election Form shall permit a record holder of Shares (or the beneficial owner through appropriate and customary documentation and instructions) to specify (x) the number of such holder’s Shares with respect to which such holder makes a Mixed Election (each such share, a “Mixed Election Share”), (y) the number of such holder’s Shares with respect to which such holder makes a Cash Election (each such share, a “Cash Election Share”) and (z) the number of such holder’s Shares with respect to which such holder makes a Stock Election (each such share, a “Stock Election Share”).

(b) Parent shall make available one or more Election Forms as may reasonably be requested from time to time by all Persons who become holders (or beneficial owners) of Shares between the record date for the Company Stockholder Meeting and the close of business on the Business Day prior to the Election Deadline, and the Company shall provide to the Exchange Agent all information reasonably necessary for it to perform as specified herein.

(c) Any Shares with respect to which the Exchange Agent has not received an effective, properly completed Election Form (including duly executed transmittal materials included with the Election Form) on or before 5:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on the date that is one Business Day

immediately preceding the Company Stockholder Meeting (or such other time and date as Parent and the Company shall agree in writing) (the “Election Deadline”) (other than Shares to be cancelled in accordance with Section 2.1(c) and other than Dissenting Shares) shall be deemed to be “No Election Shares,” and the holders of such No Election Shares shall be deemed to have made a Mixed Election with respect to such No Election Shares. An Election Form shall be effective and properly made and completed if the Exchange Agent shall have actually received at its designated office by the Election Deadline, an Election Form (including duly executed transmittal materials included with the Election Form) properly completed and signed and accompanied by (i) Certificates representing the Shares to which such Election Form relates, duly endorsed in blank or otherwise in form acceptable for transfer on the books of the Company (or by an appropriate guarantee of delivery of such Certificates as set forth in such Election Form from a firm that is an “eligible guarantor institution” (as defined in Rule 17Ad-15 under the Exchange Act); provided, that such Certificates are in fact delivered to the Exchange Agent by the time set forth in such guarantee of delivery) or (ii) in the case of Book-Entry Shares, the documents required by the procedures set forth in the Election Form. The Election Form shall specify that delivery shall be made, and risk of loss and title to any Certificates or Book-Entry Shares, as applicable, shall pass, only upon proper delivery of the Election Form together with any Certificates and/or Book-Entry Shares representing such Shares to the Exchange Agent in accordance with the foregoing sentence.

(d) As soon as reasonably practicable following the Election Deadline (and in any event two (2) Business Days thereafter), Parent shall cause the Exchange Agent to effect the following prorations to the Merger Consideration allocations; provided that the payment of the Merger Consideration shall be made in accordance with Section 2.3:

i. If the Cash Election Amount is greater than the Available Cash Election Amount, then each Cash Election Share shall, instead of being converted into the Cash Election Consideration, be converted into the right to receive (A) an amount of cash (without interest) equal to the product of the Cash Election Consideration, multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the Available Cash Election Amount and the denominator of which shall be the Cash Election Amount (such fraction, the “Cash Fraction”) and (B) a number of validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable Parent Shares equal to the product of the Stock Election Consideration, multiplied by a fraction equal to one (1) minus the Cash Fraction.

ii. If the Available Cash Election Amount is greater than the Cash Election Amount, then each Stock Election Share shall, instead of being converted into the right to receive the Stock Election Consideration, be converted into the right to receive (A) an amount of cash (without interest) equal to the amount of such excess divided by the number of Stock Election Shares and (B) a number of validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable Parent Shares equal to the product of the Stock Election Consideration multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the difference between (I) the Cash Election Consideration minus (II) the amount calculated in clause (A) of this paragraph, and the denominator of which shall be the Cash Election Consideration.

(e) Any Election Form may be revoked or changed by the authorized Person properly submitting such Election Form, by written notice received by the Exchange Agent prior to the Election Deadline. In the event an Election Form is revoked prior to the Election Deadline, the Shares represented by such Election Form shall become No Election Shares, except to the extent a subsequent election is properly made with respect to any or all of Shares prior to the Election Deadline. Subject to the terms of this Agreement and of the Election Form, the Exchange Agent shall have reasonable discretion to determine whether any election, revocation or change has been properly or timely made and to disregard immaterial defects in the Election Forms, and any good faith decisions of the Exchange Agent regarding such matters shall be binding and conclusive. None of Parent, the Company, Merger

Sub or the Exchange Agent shall be under any obligation to notify any Person of any defect in an Election Form.

2.3 Payment for Securities; Surrender of Certificates.

(a) Exchange Fund. Prior to the Mailing Date, Parent will designate a reputable bank or trust company, reasonably acceptable to the Company, to act as the paying and exchange agent for the purpose of effecting the payment and delivery of the Merger Consideration in connection with the Merger (the “Exchange Agent”). The Exchange Agent shall also act as the agent for the holders of Shares for the purposes of (i) mailing and receiving Election Forms and determining, in accordance with this Article II, the form of Merger Consideration to be received by each holder of Shares, and (ii) receiving and holding their Election Forms and certificate or certificates which immediately prior to the Effective Time represented outstanding Shares (the “Certificates”) and non-certificated Shares represented by book-entry (“Book-Entry Shares”) and shall obtain no rights or interests in the Shares represented thereby. At or immediately after the Effective Time, Parent shall deposit, or cause to be deposited, with the Exchange Agent (i) evidence of Parent Shares issuable pursuant to Section 2.1(a) and Section 2.1(b) in book-entry form equal to the aggregate number of Parent Shares to be issued as Merger Consideration (excluding any Fractional Share Consideration) and (ii) cash in immediately available funds in an amount sufficient to pay the aggregate cash to be paid as Merger Consideration, the aggregate Company Accelerated Equity Award Payments (except to the extent that any such Equity Award Payments are to be made through the payroll of the Surviving Corporation), any Fractional Share Consideration and any dividends under Section 2.3(f) (such evidence of book-entry Parent Shares and cash amounts, together with any dividends or other distributions with respect thereto, the “Exchange Fund”) in each case, for the sole benefit of the holders of the Shares converted pursuant to Section 2.1(a) and Section 2.1(b) and Company Accelerated Equity Awards. In the event the Exchange Fund shall be insufficient to pay the aggregate Merger Consideration, the Company Accelerated Equity Award Payments and the dividends under Section 2.3(f), Parent shall promptly deposit, or cause to be promptly deposited, additional Parent Shares or cash with the Exchange Agent in the amount required to make such payments. Parent shall cause the Exchange Agent to make, and the Exchange Agent shall make, delivery of the Merger Consideration, including payment of the Fractional Share Consideration and any amounts payable in respect of dividends or other distributions on shares of Parent Stock in accordance with Section 2.3(f), out of the Exchange Fund in accordance with this Agreement. The Exchange Fund shall not be used for any purpose that is not expressly provided for in this Agreement. The cash portion of the Exchange Fund shall be invested by the Exchange Agent as reasonably directed by Parent; provided, however, that no such investment or loss thereon shall affect the amounts payable to holders of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares pursuant to this Article II and to the extent of any such loss, Parent shall fund additional cash amounts into the Exchange Fund to enable such payments to be made. Any interest or other income from such investments shall be paid promptly to Parent or the Surviving Corporation, as Parent directs.

(b) Procedures for Surrender. Promptly after the Effective Time (and in any event, within three (3) Business Days thereafter), Parent will cause the Exchange Agent to mail to each holder of record of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares which were converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration at the Effective Time pursuant to Section 2.1(a) and Section 2.1(b) (other than the holders of record of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares who have properly completed and submitted, and have not revoked, an Election Form pursuant to Section 2.2 prior to the Closing): (i) a letter of transmittal, which will specify that delivery will be effected, and risk of loss and title to the Certificates (if any) will pass, only upon delivery of such Certificates (or affidavits of loss in lieu thereof) to the Exchange Agent, and will otherwise be in such form and have such other provisions as Parent or the Exchange Agent may reasonably specify and (ii) instructions in customary form for effecting the surrender of the Certificates or Book-Entry Shares in exchange for payment of the Merger Consideration, including any amount payable in respect of Fractional Share Consideration or any dividends or other distributions on the Parent Shares

in accordance with Section 2.3(f). Upon surrender of Certificates (or affidavits of loss in lieu thereof) and Book-Entry Shares for cancellation to the Exchange Agent or to such other agent or agents as may be appointed by Parent, and upon delivery of an Election Form or letter of transmittal, duly executed and in proper form, with respect to such Certificates (or affidavits of loss in lieu thereof) or Book-Entry Shares, the holder of such Certificates or Book-Entry Shares will be entitled to receive the Merger Consideration pursuant to the provisions of this Article 2, including any amount payable in respect of Fractional Share Consideration or any dividends or other distributions on the Parent Shares in accordance with Section 2.3(f), for each Share formerly represented by such Certificates (or affidavits of loss in lieu thereof) and for each Book-Entry Share. Any Certificates so surrendered will forthwith be cancelled. All Merger Consideration, Fractional Share Consideration or other amounts due pursuant to Section 2.3(f), paid upon the surrender for exchange of Certificates (or affidavits of loss in lieu thereof) and Book-Entry Shares will be deemed to have been paid in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to the Shares formerly represented by such Certificates or Book-Entry Shares. If payment of the Merger Consideration is to be made to a Person other than the Person in whose name any surrendered Certificate is registered, it will be a condition precedent of payment that the Certificate so surrendered will be properly endorsed or will be otherwise in proper form for transfer, and the Person requesting such payment will have paid any transfer or similar Taxes required by reason of the payment of the Merger Consideration to a Person other than the registered holder of the Certificate so surrendered or will have established to the satisfaction of the Exchange Agent that such Taxes either have been paid or are not payable. Any other transfer or similar Taxes incurred in connection with the Merger will be paid by Parent. Payment of the Merger Consideration with respect to Book-Entry Shares will only be made to the Person in whose name such Book-Entry Shares are registered. Until surrendered as contemplated hereby, each Certificate or Book-Entry Share (other than Shares cancelled pursuant to Section 2.1(c)) will be deemed at any time after the Effective Time to represent only the right to receive the Merger Consideration or the amount determined pursuant to Section 2.4, as applicable, without interest.

(c) Transfer Books; No Further Ownership Rights in Shares. At the Effective Time, the stock transfer books of the Company will be closed and thereafter there will be no further registration of transfers of Shares that were previously outstanding on the records of the Company. From and after the Effective Time, the holders of Certificates and Book-Entry Shares outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time will cease to have any rights with respect to such Shares except as otherwise provided for herein or by applicable Law. If, after the Effective Time, Certificates or Book-Entry Shares are presented to the Surviving Corporation for any reason, then (subject to compliance with the exchange procedures of Section 2.3(b)) they will be cancelled and exchanged as provided in this Agreement.

(d) Termination of Exchange Fund; Abandoned Property; No Liability. At any time following the first anniversary of the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation will be entitled to require the Exchange Agent to deliver to it any portion of the Exchange Fund (including any interest accrued with respect thereto) not disbursed to holders of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares or Company Accelerated Equity Awards, and thereafter such holders will be entitled to look only to the Surviving Corporation (subject to abandoned property, escheat or other similar Laws) as general creditors thereof with respect to the Merger Consideration, including any amount payable in respect of Fractional Share Consideration or any dividends or other distributions on the Parent Shares in accordance with Section 2.3(f), payable upon due surrender of their Certificates or Book-Entry Shares or Company Accelerated Equity Awards and compliance with the procedures in Section 2.3(b), without interest. Any amounts remaining unclaimed by holders of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares immediately prior to such time as such amounts would otherwise escheat to or become the property of any Governmental Entity will, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, become the property of the Surviving Corporation free and clear of all claims or interest of any Person previously entitled thereto hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the Surviving Corporation nor the Exchange Agent will be liable to any holder of a Certificate or

Book-Entry Shares for Merger Consideration delivered to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Law.

(e) Lost, Stolen or Destroyed Certificates. In the event that any Certificates have been lost, stolen or destroyed, the Exchange Agent will issue in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificates, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the holder thereof, the Merger Consideration payable in respect thereof pursuant to Section 2.1(a) or (b) hereof, including any amount payable in respect of Fractional Share Consideration or any dividends or other distributions on the Parent Shares in accordance with Section 2.3(f); provided, however, that Parent may, in its reasonable discretion and as a condition precedent to any such payment, require the owners of such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificates to deliver a customary affidavit of loss which includes an indemnity against any claim that may be made against Parent, Merger Sub, the Surviving Corporation or the Exchange Agent with respect to the Certificates alleged to have been lost, stolen or destroyed.

(f) Dividends or Distributions with Respect to Parent Shares. No dividends or other distributions with respect to Parent Shares with a record date after the Effective Time shall be paid to the holder of any unsurrendered Certificate or Book-Entry Share with respect to Parent Shares issuable hereunder, and all such dividends and other distributions shall be paid by Parent to the Exchange Agent and shall be included in the Exchange Fund, in each case until the surrender of such Certificate (or affidavit of loss in lieu thereof) or Book-Entry Share in accordance with this Agreement. Subject to applicable Laws, following surrender of any such Certificate (or affidavit of loss in lieu thereof) or Book-Entry Share there shall be paid to the holder thereof, without interest, (i) the amount of dividends or other distributions with a record date after the Effective Time theretofore paid with respect to the Parent Shares to which such holder is entitled pursuant to this Agreement and (ii) at the appropriate payment date, the amount of dividends or other distributions with a record date after the Effective Time but prior to such surrender and with a payment date subsequent to such surrender payable with respect to such Parent Shares.

(g) Withholding Rights. Each of Parent, the Surviving Corporation and the Exchange Agent, as applicable, shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement such amounts as Parent, the Surviving Corporation or the Exchange Agent, as applicable, is required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under the Code or any other applicable state, local or foreign Tax Law. Except for any deduction or withholding with respect to Company Accelerated Equity Award Payments or any U.S. federal backup withholding attributable to a failure of a holder of Shares to provide a completed IRS Form W-8 or W-9, before making any such deduction or withholding, Parent, the Surviving Corporation or the Exchange Agent, as applicable, shall use commercially reasonable efforts to give the Company prior notice of its intention to make such deduction or withholding, and such notice shall include the authority, basis and method of calculation for the proposed deduction or withholding. To the extent that amounts are so withheld and notwithstanding any failure to comply with the preceding sentence, such withheld amounts (i) shall be remitted to the applicable Governmental Entity and (ii) shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the holder of Shares in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made.

2.4 Dissenting Shares. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, Shares outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and held by a holder of record who did not vote in favor of the adoption of this Agreement (or consent thereto in writing) who is entitled to demand and has properly demanded appraisal for such Shares in accordance with, and who complies in all respects with, Section 262 of the DGCL (such Shares, the “Dissenting Shares”) will not be converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration, and will instead represent only the right to receive such consideration as may be determined to be due in respect of such Dissenting Shares pursuant to

Section 262 of the DGCL. If any such holder fails to perfect or otherwise waives, withdraws or loses his, her or its right to appraisal under Section 262 of the DGCL, then the right of such holder to receive such payment in respect of such Dissenting Shares will cease and such Dissenting Shares will be deemed to have been converted, as of the Effective Time, into and will be exchangeable solely for the right to receive the Mixed Election Consideration, or other amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.3, without interest. The Company will give Parent prompt notice of any demands received by the Company for appraisal of Shares, attempted withdrawals of such demands and any other instruments submitted pursuant to the DGCL and received by the Company relating to rights to be paid the fair value of Dissenting Shares, and Parent will have the right to control all negotiations and Proceedings with respect to such demands. Prior to the Effective Time, the Company will not, except with the prior written consent of Parent in its sole discretion, make any payment with respect to, or settle or compromise or offer to settle or compromise, any such demands, or approve any withdrawal of any such demands, or agree to do any of the foregoing.

2.5 Treatment of Company Equity Awards; Company Equity Plans.

(a) Vesting Acceleration. Prior to the Effective Time, the Company Board (or, if appropriate, any committee thereof) will adopt resolutions and take all other actions necessary and appropriate to provide that, as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, the vesting, and, if applicable, exercisability of each (i) outstanding Share subject to a right of repurchase in favor of the Company or risk of forfeiture (collectively, “Company Restricted Shares”), (ii) restricted stock unit granted in respect of Shares that is not a Company Assumed Restricted Stock Unit (collectively, “Company Accelerated Restricted Stock Units”), (iii) performance stock unit granted in respect of Shares that is not a Company Assumed Performance Stock Unit (collectively, “Company Accelerated Performance Stock Units”), (iv) phantom stock right in respect of or economically linked to Shares (collectively, “Company Phantom Awards”), (v) option to purchase Shares (collectively, “Company Options”), (vi) stock appreciation right in respect of Shares (collectively, “Company Stock Appreciation Rights”) and (vii) any other equity or equity-based award in respect of, linked to or denominated in Shares other than the Company Assumed Restricted Stock Units and Company Assumed Performance Stock Units (collectively with Company Restricted Shares, Company Accelerated Restricted Stock Units, Company Accelerated Performance Stock Units, Company Phantom Awards, Company Options and Company Stock Appreciation Rights, “Company Accelerated Equity Awards”) whether granted separately or under any employee or director stock option, stock purchase or equity compensation plan, arrangement or agreement of the Company, including the Company’s Amended and Restated 2009 Stock Option Plan, the Company’s Stock Appreciation Rights Plan, the Company’s Amended and Restated Phantom Stock Plan, the Company’s Amended and Restated Long-Term Incentive Plan and the Company’s Amended and Restated Restricted Stock Plan (collectively, “Company Equity Plans”), will accelerate with respect to one hundred percent (100%) of the Shares underlying such Company Accelerated Equity Award (treating for this purpose any performance-based vesting condition as having been attained at “target”) and all restrictions thereon shall lapse. After giving effect to such accelerated vesting, the Company Accelerated Equity Awards shall be treated in accordance with Section 2.5(b) or, in the case of Company Restricted Shares, Section 2.1.

(b) Treatment of Company Accelerated Equity Awards. Effective as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, each Company Accelerated Equity Award, other than the Company Restricted Shares which shall be subject to Section 2.1, shall be cancelled and, in exchange therefor, each former holder of any such cancelled Company Accelerated Equity Award will be entitled to receive, in consideration of the cancellation of such Company Accelerated Equity Award and in full settlement therefor, a payment in cash of an amount equal to the product of (A) the total number of Shares subject to such Company Accelerated Equity Award as of immediately prior to such cancellation and (B) any positive difference obtained by subtracting any exercise price per Share applicable to such Company Accelerated Equity Award (if applicable) from the Equity Award Consideration (such amounts payable

hereunder being referred to as the “Company Accelerated Equity Award Payments”). For the avoidance of doubt, in the case of a Company Accelerated Equity Award that does not have an exercise price, the exercise price per Share for the purposes of the preceding sentence shall be zero. From and after the Effective Time, any such cancelled Company Accelerated Equity Awards will no longer be outstanding or exercisable by the former holder thereof, but will only entitle such holder to the payment of the Company Accelerated Equity Award Payment.

(c) Payments through Payroll. Any Company Accelerated Equity Award Payment to which an employee or former employee of the Company becomes entitled pursuant to Section 2.5(b) shall be made through the Surviving Corporation’s payroll no more than ten (10) Business Days following the Effective Time.

(d) Equity Award Rollover. Prior to the Effective Time, the Company Board (or, if appropriate, any committee thereof) will adopt resolutions and take all other actions necessary and appropriate to provide that each (i) restricted stock unit granted after February 28, 2017 under the Company’s Amended and Restated Long-Term Incentive Plan in respect of Shares and held by a Continuing Employee (the “Company Assumed Restricted Stock Units,” collectively with the Company Accelerated Restricted Stock Units, the “Company Restricted Stock Units”) that is outstanding immediately before the Effective Time, will be converted as of the Effective Time into a restricted stock unit (the “Assumed Restricted Stock Unit”) on the same terms and conditions (including applicable vesting requirements but subject to such accelerated vesting, if any, provided to the holder thereof in a plan set forth on Section 5.9(c) of the Company Disclosure Schedules or a Company Employee Agreement) under the Company’s Amended and Restated Long-Term Incentive Plan and award agreement evidencing such Company Assumed Restricted Stock Unit, in respect of the number of Parent Shares that is equal to the number of Shares subject to the Company Assumed Restricted Stock Unit immediately prior to the Effective Time multiplied by the Assumed Equity Award Exchange Ratio (rounded to the nearest whole share); and (ii) performance stock unit granted after February 28, 2017 under the Company’s Amended and Restated Long-Term Incentive Plan in respect of Shares and held by a Continuing Employee (collectively, “Company Assumed Performance Stock Units,” collectively with the Company Accelerated Performance Stock Units, the “Company Performance Stock Units”) that is outstanding immediately before the Effective Time, will be converted as of the Effective Time into a restricted stock unit (the “Assumed Performance Stock Units”) in accordance with the terms of the Company’s Amended and Restated Long-Term Incentive Plan and award agreement evidencing such Company Assumed Performance Stock Unit (with vesting to occur in substantially equal installments on each of the first three anniversaries of the original date of grant of the related Company Assumed Performance Stock Units, subject to such accelerated vesting, if any, provided to the holder thereof in a plan set forth on Section 5.9(c) of the Company Disclosure Schedules or a Company Employee Agreement) in respect of the number of Parent Shares that is equal to the number of Shares that would have vested at the end of the performance period if target performance had been achieved immediately prior to the Effective Time multiplied by the Assumed Equity Award Exchange Ratio (rounded to the nearest whole share). For purposes of this Agreement, the “Assumed Equity Award Exchange Ratio” means the quotient of (x) the Equity Award Consideration and (ii) the Parent Share VWAP. No later than the Effective Time, Parent shall file, and keep effective for so long as the Assumed Restricted Stock Units and Assumed Performance Stock Units are outstanding, a registration statement on Form S-8 (or any successor or other appropriate form) with respect to the Parent Shares subject to Assumed Restricted Stock Units and Assumed Performance Stock Units converted pursuant to this Section 2.5(d).

(e) Termination of Company Equity Plans. As of the Effective Time, all Company Equity Plans, except the Company’s Amended and Restated Long-Term Incentive Plan, will be terminated, and no further Company Accelerated Equity Awards or other rights with respect to Shares will be granted thereunder.

(f) Treatment of Company ESPP. The Company shall take such action as may be necessary to: (i) terminate the then-current offering period under the Company ESPP as of a date that is as soon as practicable following the date hereof and in no event later than immediately preceding the next scheduled purchase date under the terms of the Company ESPP (the “Company ESPP Ending Date”) and (ii) terminate the Company ESPP as of the Effective Time. On the Company ESPP Ending Date, the funds credited as of such date under the Company ESPP within the associated accumulated payroll withholding account for each participant under the Company ESPP shall be refunded to the participant in accordance with the terms of the Company ESPP for refunded contributions.

(g) Corporate Actions. At or prior to the Effective Time, the Company, the Company Board and the compensation committee of the Company Board, as applicable, shall adopt any resolutions and take any actions which are necessary to effectuate the provisions of this Section 2.5. The Company shall take all actions necessary to ensure that from and after the Effective Time neither Parent nor the Surviving Corporation will be required to deliver to any Person any Shares or other Equity Interests of the Company, the Surviving Corporation or any other Person pursuant to or in settlement of Company Accelerated Equity Awards or other rights with respect to Shares.

2.6 Fractional Shares. No fractional Parent Shares shall be issued in connection with the Merger, no certificate or scrip representing fractional Parent Shares shall be issued upon the surrender for exchange of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares, and such fractional share interests shall not entitle the owner thereof to vote or to any other rights of a shareholder of Parent. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, each holder of Shares converted pursuant to the Merger who would otherwise have been entitled to receive a fraction of a Parent Share (after aggregating all shares represented by the Certificates and Book-Entry Shares delivered by such holder) shall receive, in lieu thereof and upon surrender thereof, cash, without interest, in an amount equal to such fractional part of a Parent Share (rounded to the nearest one thousandth when expressed in decimal form) multiplied by the Parent Share VWAP.

(a) Except as would not have a Parent Material Adverse Effect, each Material Current Parent Government Contract was legally awarded to Parent or a Parent Subsidiary, as applicable.

(b) Except as would not have a Parent Material Adverse Effect, (i) neither Parent nor any Parent Subsidiary is in material breach or default of any Material Current Parent Government Contract; and (ii) there are no outstanding material disputes between Parent or any Parent Subsidiary, on the one hand, and any Governmental Entity, prime contractor, or subcontractor, on the other hand, arising under any Material Current Parent Government Contract.

(c) Except as would not have a Parent Material Adverse Effect, since January 1, 2015 (i) neither Parent nor any Parent Subsidiary nor any of their respective current directors or current officers has been suspended or debarred, or proposed for debarment or suspension from government contracting; (ii) neither Parent nor any Parent Subsidiary has received any written notice of termination for default, cure notice, or show cause notice that remains unresolved and pertains to any Material Current Parent Government Contract; and (iii) neither Parent nor any Parent Subsidiary has made any voluntary or mandatory disclosure to any Governmental Entity with respect to any irregularity, misstatement, significant overpayment, or violation of law arising under or relating to any Material Current Parent Government Contract.

4.13 Ownership of Company Common Stock. Neither Parent nor any of its Subsidiaries owns (beneficially or otherwise) any Shares or other Equity Interests in the Company or any options, warrants or other rights to acquire Company Common Stock or other Equity Interests in the Company (or any other economic interest through derivative securities or otherwise in the Company). Neither Parent, Merger Sub nor any of their respective “affiliates” or “associates” (as each term is defined in Section 203 of the DGCL) is, or at any time during the past three years has been, an “interested stockholder” of the Company as defined in Section 203 of the DGCL.

4.14 No Required Vote. No vote of the holders of any Equity Interest in Parent is required for Parent to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

4.15 Financial Capability. Parent has delivered to the Company a true and complete copy of each of the executed Debt Commitment Letters, and the Debt Fee Letters (redacted to delete the economic and “market flex” provisions of the Debt Fee Letters). Assuming (x) that the parties to the Debt Commitment Letters (other than the Parent and Merger Sub) perform their obligations in accordance with the terms thereof and (y) that the conditions set forth in Section 6.2(a) will be satisfied at the Closing, Parent and Merger Sub shall have at the Closing sufficient cash, available lines of credit or other sources of immediately available funds to make payment of all amounts to be paid by them hereunder on and after the Closing Date. The Debt Commitment Letters have not been amended or modified in any manner prior to the date of this Agreement (provided that the existence or exercise of “market flex” provisions contained in the Debt Fee Letters shall not be deemed to constitute an amendment or modification of the Debt Commitment Letters). Neither Parent nor any of its Affiliates has entered into any agreement, side letter or other commitment or arrangement relating to the financing of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, other than as set forth in the Debt Commitment Letters and the Debt Fee Letters. Assuming (x) that the parties to the Debt Commitment Letters (other than the Parent and Merger Sub) perform their obligations in accordance with the terms thereof and (y) that the conditions set forth in Section 6.2(a) will be satisfied at the Closing, the proceeds of the Debt Financing (both before and after giving effect to the exercise of any or all “market flex” provisions contained in the Debt Fee Letters), together with cash, available lines of credit or other sources of immediately available funds, will be sufficient to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby, including the payment of the aggregate cash to be paid as Merger Consideration and the aggregate Company Accelerated Equity Award Payments to which holders of Shares and Company Accelerated Equity Awards will be entitled pursuant to this Agreement and the repayment of the indebtedness contemplated by Sections 5.17(a) and 5.17(b). As of the date hereof, the commitments contained in the Debt Commitment Letters have not been withdrawn or rescinded in any respect. As of the date hereof, the Debt Commitment Letters are in full force and effect and represent a valid, binding and enforceable obligation of Parent and, to the knowledge of Parent, each other party thereto, subject only to (i) the satisfaction or waiver of the Financing Conditions and (ii) the qualification that such enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other laws of general application relating to or affecting rights of creditors. Parent has fully paid (or caused to be paid) any and all commitment fees and other amounts that are due and payable on or prior to the date of this Agreement in connection with the Debt Financing. No event has occurred which, with or without notice, lapse of time or both, would constitute a breach or default that could reasonably be expected to result in a failure to satisfy a Financing Condition on the part of Parent or a breach or default by any other party thereto under any term of the Debt Commitment Letters. There are no conditions precedent or other contingencies related to the funding of the full amount of the Debt Financing, other than the Financing Conditions. Assuming the condition set forth in Section 6.2(a) regarding the representations and warranties of the Company contained in this Agreement and the condition set forth in Section 6.2(b) regarding the Company’s performance and compliance with all covenants and obligations under this Agreement required to be performed and complied with by it are satisfied on the Closing Date, Parent has no reason to believe that (i) any of the Financing Conditions will not be satisfied or (ii) the Debt Financing will not be made available to Parent on the Closing Date.

Parent understands and acknowledges that under the terms of this Agreement, the obligations of Parent and Merger Sub to consummate the Merger are not in any way contingent upon or otherwise subject to the consummation by Parent or Merger Sub of any financing arrangements, the obtaining by Parent or Merger Sub of any financing or the availability, grant, provision or extension of any financing to Parent or Merger Sub.

4.16 Ownership of Merger Sub; No Prior Activities.

4.17 Management Arrangements. As of the date hereof, other than the Support Agreement and except as previously disclosed to the Company, none of Parent or Merger Sub, or their respective executive officers, directors or affiliates, has entered into any agreement, arrangement or understanding with any of the executive officers, directors or Affiliates of the Company that is currently in effect or would become effective in the future (upon consummation of the Merger or otherwise) and that would be required to be disclosed under Item 1005(d) of Regulation M-A under the Exchange Act.

4.18 Brokers. Except for Parent’s obligations to Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx & Co. LLC and Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxxx Partners LP, neither Parent, Merger Sub nor any of their respective stockholders, directors, officers, employees or affiliates, has incurred or will incur on behalf of Parent, Merger Sub or any Parent Subsidiary, any brokerage, finders’, financial advisory or similar fee in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

4.19 No Other Representations or Warranties. Except for the representations and warranties contained in Article 3, Parent and Merger Sub acknowledge that neither the Company nor any of the Company Subsidiaries nor any Representative of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries makes, and Parent and Merger Sub acknowledge that they have not relied upon or otherwise been induced by, any other express or implied representation or warranty by or on behalf of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries.

foregoing actions (each such action set forth in clauses (i) through (vii) being referred to as a “Change of Board Recommendation”).

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 5.4, if (i) the Company has received a bona fide written Acquisition Proposal from a third party that was not solicited, initiated, encouraged, facilitated or otherwise obtained in breach, in any material respect, of the provisions of this Agreement and that the Company Board determines in good faith, after consultation with the Company’s outside legal counsel and financial advisors, constitutes a Superior Proposal, after giving effect to all of the adjustments to the terms and conditions of this Agreement that have been proposed to the Company by Parent in writing during the Notice Period provided pursuant to this Section 5.4(e) and (ii) the Company Board determines in good faith, after consultation with the Company’s outside legal counsel and financial advisors, that a failure to make a Change of Board Recommendation and/or terminate this Agreement to enter into an Alternative Acquisition Agreement with respect to such Superior Proposal would reasonably be expected to violate the fiduciary duties owed by the Company Board to the stockholders of the Company under applicable Law, then, prior to the time (but not after) the Company Stockholder Approval is obtained, the Company Board may take the following actions: (y) effect a Change of Board Recommendation with respect to such Superior Proposal or (z) terminate this Agreement to enter into an Alternative Acquisition Agreement with respect to such Superior Proposal; provided, however, that the Company may not terminate this Agreement pursuant to the foregoing clause (z), and any purported termination pursuant to the foregoing clause (z) will be void and of no force or effect, unless and until the Company complies with the requirements of Section 7.1(d) and pays the Breakup Fee in accordance with Section 7.2(b); and provided, further, that the Company Board may not effect a Change of Board Recommendation pursuant to the foregoing clause (y) or terminate this Agreement pursuant to the foregoing clause (z) unless:

i. the Company has provided prior written notice to Parent, at least four (4) Business Days in advance (the “Notice Period”), of the Company’s intention to take such action with respect to such Superior Proposal (it being understood that the delivery of such notice and any amendment or update thereto and the determination to so deliver such notice, update or amendment will not, by itself, constitute a Change of Board Recommendation or otherwise give rise to a Triggering Event), which notice will specify the terms and conditions of such Superior Proposal (including the identity of the party making such Superior Proposal), and the Company has contemporaneously provided a copy of all material documents related to such Superior Proposal, including the relevant proposed transaction agreements with the party making such Superior Proposal, including any definitive agreement with respect to such Superior Proposal and any related financing commitments; and

ii. the Company has, and has caused the Company Representatives to, during the Notice Period, negotiate with Parent in good faith (to the extent Parent desires to negotiate) to make such adjustments in the terms and conditions of this Agreement so that such Acquisition Proposal ceases to constitute a Superior Proposal. In the event of any material revisions to the price, financing or other material terms of the Superior Proposal, the Company will be required to deliver a new written notice to Parent and to comply with the requirements of this Section 5.4(e) with respect to such new written notice; provided that references to the four (4) Business Day period above shall be deemed to be references to a three (3) Business Day period.

(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, prior to the time (but not after) the Company Stockholder Approval is obtained, solely in response to an Intervening Event, the Company Board may make a Change of Board Recommendation for a reason unrelated to an Acquisition Proposal (it being understood and agreed that any Change of Board Recommendation proposed to be made in relation to an Acquisition Proposal may only be made pursuant to and in accordance with the terms of Section 5.4(e)) if the Company Board has determined in good faith, after consultation with the Company’s outside legal counsel and financial advisors, that, in light of an Intervening Event and taking into account the results of any negotiations with Parent as contemplated by subsection (ii) below and any offer from Parent contemplated by subsection (iii) below, that the failure to make a Change of Board Recommendation would reasonably be expected to violate the fiduciary duties owed by the Company Board to the stockholders of the Company under applicable Law; provided, however, that the Company Board may not effect a Change of Board Recommendation pursuant to the foregoing unless:

i. the Company shall have provided prior written notice to Parent, at least five (5) Business Days in advance (the “Intervening Event Notice Period”), of the Company’s intention to make a Change of Board Recommendation (it being understood that the delivery of such notice and any amendment or update thereto and the determination to so deliver such notice, update or amendment shall not, by itself, constitute a Change of Board Recommendation or otherwise give rise to a Triggering Event), which notice shall (A) specify in detail the Company Board’s reason for proposing to effect such Change of Board Recommendation (including a description of such Intervening Event in reasonable detail) and (B) include all material documentation related to the Intervening Event;

ii. prior to effecting such Change of Board Recommendation, the Company shall, and shall cause the Company Representatives to, during the Intervening Event Notice Period negotiate with Parent in good faith (to the extent Parent desires to negotiate) to make such adjustments in the terms and conditions of this Agreement in such a manner that would obviate the need for the Company Board to effect such Change of Board Recommendation; and

iii. Parent shall not have, within the Intervening Event Notice Period, proposed in writing to modify the terms and conditions of this Agreement in a manner that the Company Board has in good faith determined (after consultation with the Company’s outside legal counsel and financial advisors) would obviate the need for the Company Board to effect such Change of Board Recommendation.

(g) Nothing contained in this Agreement shall prohibit the Company (i) from taking and disclosing to the stockholders of the Company a position contemplated by Rule 14e-2(a) promulgated under the Exchange Act or complying with the provisions of Rule 14d-9 promulgated under the Exchange Act or (ii) making any disclosure to the stockholders of the Company that the Company Board determines to make in good faith (after consultation with the Company’s outside counsel) in order to fulfill its fiduciary duties under, or in order to otherwise comply with, applicable Law, in each case, so long as any such disclosure (A) includes the Company Board Recommendation, without any modification thereof and (B) does not contain a Change of Board Recommendation; provided, further, that no Change of Board Recommendation may be made except in accordance with the terms of Section 5.4(e) and Section 5.4(f).

5.5 Registration Statement; Proxy Statement/Prospectus; Stockholder Approval.

(a) As promptly as reasonably practicable following the date of this Agreement, the Company and Parent shall jointly prepare and file with the SEC the Registration Statement, which will include the Proxy Statement/Prospectus. Each of Parent and the Company will use their respective reasonable best efforts to (i) cause the Registration Statement and the Proxy Statement/Prospectus, when filed, to comply in all material respects with all legal requirements applicable thereto, (ii) respond as promptly as reasonably practicable to and resolve all comments received from the SEC or its staff concerning the Registration Statement and the Proxy Statement/Prospectus, (iii) have the Registration Statement declared effective under the Securities Act as promptly as practicable after such filing and (iv) keep the Registration Statement effective for so long as necessary to complete the Merger. No filing of, or amendment or supplement to, the Registration Statement or the Proxy Statement/Prospectus, or response to SEC comments with respect thereto, will be made by Parent or the Company, as applicable, without the other’s prior consent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) and without providing the other party a reasonable opportunity to review and comment thereon. The Company will cause the Proxy Statement/Prospectus to be mailed to its stockholders as promptly as reasonably practicable after the Registration Statement is declared effective under the Securities Act (but in no event earlier than the record date set by the Company for the Company Stockholder Meeting). Parent or the Company, as applicable, will promptly notify the other upon the receipt of any comments from the SEC or any request from the SEC for amendments or supplements to the Registration Statement or the Proxy Statement/Prospectus, and will, as promptly as practicable after receipt thereof, provide the other with copies of all material correspondence between it and its Representatives, on the one hand, and the SEC, on the other hand, and all written comments with respect to the Registration Statement or the Proxy Statement/Prospectus received from the SEC and advise the other on any oral comments with respect to the Registration Statement or the Proxy Statement/Prospectus received from the SEC. Parent will advise the Company, promptly after it receives notice thereof, of the time of effectiveness of the Registration Statement and the issuance of any stop order relating thereto or the suspension of the qualification of the Parent Shares issuable in connection with the Merger for offering or sale in any jurisdiction, and Parent and the Company will use their respective reasonable best efforts to have any such stop order or suspension lifted, reversed or otherwise terminated. Parent and the Company will also take any other action required to be taken under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, any applicable foreign or state securities or Blue Sky Laws and the rules and regulations thereunder in connection with the Merger, and the Company will use its reasonable best efforts to furnish all information concerning the Company and the holders of the Shares as Parent may reasonably request in connection with any such actions. If at any time prior to the Effective Time any information relating to Parent or the Company, or any of their respective Affiliates, officers or directors, is discovered by Parent or the Company which should be set forth in an amendment or supplement to the Registration Statement or the Proxy Statement/Prospectus, so that any of such documents would not include a misstatement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, the party that discovers such information shall promptly notify the other party hereto and each of Parent and the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause an appropriate amendment or supplement describing such information to be promptly filed with the SEC and, to the extent required by law, disseminated to the Company stockholders.

(b) The Company shall duly call, establish a record date for, give notice of and hold a meeting of its stockholders (the “Company Stockholder Meeting”) as soon as reasonably practicable after the Registration Statement is declared effective under the Securities Act for the purpose of voting on the adoption of this Agreement. The Company shall not, without the consent of Parent, adjourn or postpone, cancel, recess or reschedule, the Company Stockholder Meeting; provided, that the Company may, without the consent of (but after consultation with) Parent, adjourn or postpone the Company Stockholder Meeting (A) if, as of the time for which the Company Stockholder Meeting is

originally scheduled (as set forth in the Proxy Statement/Prospectus), there are insufficient Shares represented (either in person or by proxy) to constitute a quorum necessary to conduct the business of the Company Stockholder Meeting, (B) if the failure to adjourn or postpone the Company Stockholder Meeting would reasonably be expected to be a violation of applicable Law or for the distribution of any required supplement or amendment to the Proxy Statement/Prospectus or (C) to solicit additional proxies if the Company reasonably determines that it is advisable or necessary to do so in order to obtain the Company Stockholder Approval. Except to the extent that the Company Board shall have effected a Change of Board Recommendation, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to obtain the Company Stockholder Approval and shall include in the Proxy Statement/Prospectus the Company Board Recommendation.

(c) Immediately following the execution of this Agreement, Parent shall execute and deliver, in accordance with Section 228 of the DGCL and in its capacity as the sole stockholder of Merger Sub, a written consent adopting this Agreement.

5.6 Appropriate Action; Consents; Filings.

(a) Subject to the terms of this Agreement (including Section 5.6(b)), the Company and Parent will use their respective reasonable best efforts to (i) take, or cause to be taken, appropriate action and do, or cause to be done, those things necessary, proper or advisable under applicable Law or otherwise to consummate and make effective the transactions contemplated by this Agreement as promptly as practicable, (ii) obtain from any Governmental Entities any consents, licenses, permits, waivers, approvals, authorizations or orders required to be obtained by Parent or the Company or any of their respective Subsidiaries, or to avoid any action or proceeding by any Governmental Entity (including, without limitation, those in connection with the HSR Act and any other applicable Competition Laws), and (iii) submit any filings or notifications to the U.S. Department of State’s Directorate of Defense Trade Controls required under Section 122.4 of the International Traffic in Arms Regulations, in connection with the authorization, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated herein, including the Merger; provided, that the Company and Parent will cooperate with each other in connection with (x) determining whether any action by or in respect of, or filing with, any Governmental Entity is required, in connection with the consummation of the Merger and (y) seeking any such actions, consents, approvals or waivers or making any such filings; provided, further, that notwithstanding the foregoing, no party shall be required to waive any right or remedy under this Agreement. The Company and Parent will furnish to each other all information reasonably required or requested in connection with any application or other filing under the rules and regulations of any applicable Law in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. The Company and Parent will use their respective commercially reasonable efforts to give (or will cause their respective Subsidiaries to give) any notices to third parties, and use, and cause their respective Subsidiaries to use, their commercially reasonable efforts to obtain any third-party consents (i) necessary, proper or advisable to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or (ii) required to be disclosed in Section 3.5 or Section 4.5 of the Company Disclosure Schedule or the Parent Disclosure Schedule, as applicable.

(b) In furtherance and not in limitation of Section 5.6(a), and subject to the remainder of this Section 5.6(b), each party hereto agrees to make any appropriate filings, if necessary or advisable, pursuant to the HSR Act or the other applicable Competition Laws of the jurisdictions set forth on Section 3.5 of the Company Disclosure Schedule with respect to the Merger as promptly as practicable, and in any event within ten (10) Business Days of the date of this Agreement with respect to filings under the HSR Act (unless otherwise mutually agreed between the parties). Each of Parent, Merger Sub and the Company will (i) cooperate and coordinate with the other in the making of any filings or submissions that are required to be made under any applicable Laws or requested to be made by any

Governmental Entity in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (ii) supply the other or its outside counsel with any information that may be required or requested by any Governmental Entity in connection with such filings or submissions, (iii) supply any additional information that may be required or requested by the Federal Trade Commission, the Department of Justice, or other Governmental Entities with which any such filings or submissions are made as promptly as practicable, (iv) use their reasonable best efforts to cause the expiration or termination of the applicable waiting periods under any applicable Laws as soon as reasonably practicable and (v) take, or cause to be taken, all actions and do, or cause to be done, all things necessary, proper or advisable to obtain any consents, licenses, permits, waivers, approvals, authorizations or orders required under or in connection with any applicable Laws or from any Governmental Entity, and to enable all waiting periods under applicable Laws to expire, and to avoid or eliminate each and every impediment under applicable Laws asserted by any Governmental Entity, in each case, to cause the Merger and the other transactions contemplated hereby, to occur as promptly as practicable following the date of this Agreement (and prior to the Outside Date), including but not limited to (A) promptly complying with any requests for additional information (including to certify that such party has “substantially complied” with any request for additional information or documentary material issued by a Governmental Entity under 15 U.S.C. Section 18(a)(e) in conjunction with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement as promptly as practicable) by any Governmental Entity, (B) if necessary to obtain clearance by any Governmental Entity before the Outside Date, but subject to the remainder of this Section 5.6(b) (including the limitations set forth below), offering, negotiating, committing to, taking and effecting, by consent decree, hold separate order or otherwise, the sale, divestiture, license or other disposition of any business or assets of Parent or its Subsidiaries, or the Company or the Company Subsidiaries, and any other actions that limit the freedom of action with respect to, or the ability to retain, any business or assets of Parent or its Subsidiaries or the Company or the Company Subsidiaries (in each case provided that such action is conditioned on the consummation of the Merger) (all of the foregoing a “Divestiture Action”) and (C) contesting, defending and appealing any lawsuit or other legal proceeding, whether judicial or administrative, threatened or pending preliminary or permanent injunction or other order, decree or ruling or statute, rule, regulation or executive order that would adversely affect the ability of any party hereto to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby and taking any and all other actions to prevent the entry, enactment or promulgation thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither Parent nor any of its Subsidiaries shall be required to, and the Company and the Company Subsidiaries shall not, without the prior written consent of Parent, offer, negotiate, commit to, take or effect any Divestiture Action, if doing so would, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the business, assets, results of operations or financial condition of (x) Parent or its Subsidiaries or (y) the Company or the Company Subsidiaries (in each case of (x) and (y), as measured on a scale relative to the Company and the Company Subsidiaries, taken as a whole).

(c) Without limiting the generality of anything contained in this Section 5.6, each party hereto will: (i) give the other parties prompt notice of the making or commencement of any request, inquiry, investigation or Proceeding by or before any Governmental Entity with respect to the Merger or any of the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement; (ii) keep the other parties reasonably informed as to the status of any such request, inquiry, investigation or Proceeding; and (iii) except as may be prohibited by any Governmental Entity or by any applicable Law, promptly inform the other parties of any communication to or from the Federal Trade Commission, the Department of Justice or any other Governmental Entity regarding the Merger. Each party hereto will consult and cooperate with the other parties and will consider in good faith the views of the other parties in connection with any filing, analysis, appearance, presentation, memorandum, brief, argument, opinion or proposal made or submitted in connection with the Merger or any of the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement. In addition, except as may be prohibited by any Governmental Entity or by any applicable Law, in connection with any such request, inquiry, investigation or Proceeding, each party hereto will permit authorized Representatives of the other parties to be present at each meeting or conference relating to

such request, inquiry, investigation or Proceeding and to have access to and be consulted in connection with any document, opinion or proposal made or submitted to any Governmental Entity in connection with such request, inquiry, investigation or Proceeding. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each party agrees that, with respect to the Competition Laws of the jurisdictions set forth on Section 3.5 of the Company Disclosure Schedule, Parent shall, acting reasonably and in good faith, on behalf of the parties, direct and control all communications and strategy relating to (x) obtaining any consents, approvals, authorizations or orders required to be obtained by Parent or the Company or any of their respective Subsidiaries or (y) contesting or avoiding any action, proceeding or litigation by any Governmental Entity under the applicable Competition Laws of the jurisdictions set forth on Section 3.5 of the Company Disclosure Schedule; provided, that Parent shall keep the Company fully informed on a reasonably current basis of all material developments related thereto and consult with the Company and consider in good faith the views of the Company.

5.7 Certain Notices. Without limiting any other obligations in this Agreement, from and after the date of this Agreement until the earlier of the Effective Time and the termination of this Agreement in accordance with its terms, each party hereto will promptly notify the other party hereto of (a) any notice or other communication received by such party from any Person alleging that the consent, approval, permission or waiver from such Person is or may be required in connection with the Merger or any of the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (b) the occurrence, or non-occurrence, of any event that would reasonably be expected to cause any condition to the obligations of any party to effect the Merger or any other transaction contemplated by this Agreement not to be satisfied or (c) the failure of such party to comply with or satisfy any covenant, condition or agreement to be complied with or satisfied by it pursuant to this Agreement which would reasonably be expected to cause any condition to the obligations of any party to effect the Merger or any other transaction contemplated by this Agreement not to be satisfied; provided, however, that the delivery of any notice pursuant to this Section 5.7 will not cure any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement, be deemed to amend or supplement the Company Disclosure Schedule or the Parent Disclosure Schedule, as applicable, or otherwise limit or affect the remedies available hereunder to the party receiving such notice.

5.8 Public Announcements. Each of the Company, Parent and Merger Sub agrees that no public release or announcement (including, without limitation, internal written non-privileged announcements or internal scripts for oral non-privileged announcements, in each case, that are broadly distributed or broadly made available to the general employee population of the Company regarding the Merger between the date of this Agreement and the Closing) concerning the transactions contemplated hereby will be issued by any party without the prior written consent of the Company and Parent (which consent will not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), except as such release or announcement may be required by applicable Law or Governmental Entity to which the relevant party is subject, in which case the party required to make the release or announcement will use its commercially reasonable efforts to allow each other party reasonable time to review and comment on such release or announcement in advance of such issuance (and incorporate all such comments reasonably proposed). The Company, Parent and Merger Sub agree that the press release announcing the execution and delivery of this Agreement will be a joint release of, and will not be issued prior to the approval of each of, the Company and Parent. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties may, without the prior consent of the other party, reasonably disseminate information previously included in a press release or other public disclosure made pursuant to this Section 5.8.

5.9 Employee Benefit Matters.

(a) For a period of one year following the Effective Time or such longer time as required by applicable Laws, Parent will provide, or will cause to be provided, to those employees of the

Company who continue to be employed by Parent and Parent Subsidiaries (individually, “Continuing Employee” and collectively, “Continuing Employees”) who is not covered by a Company CBA (collectively, the “Non-Union Continuing Employees”) (i) cash compensation, including base salary rate (but not including non-statutory overtime compensation), commission and target bonus opportunity on terms at least as favorable in the aggregate as the total cash compensation opportunities provided to the Non-Union Continuing Employee by the Company immediately prior to the Effective Time or, if greater, on terms required by applicable Laws, and (ii) benefits (other than severance, which is governed by the covenant in Section 5.9(d), and any equity compensation) on terms substantially similar in the aggregate to the benefits provided to the Non-Union Continuing Employee by the Company immediately prior to the Effective Time. The employment terms and conditions of each Company Employee whose employment is covered by a Company CBA shall be governed by the applicable Company CBA.

(b) As of and following the Effective Time, Parent will either (i) continue Company Benefit Plans with respect to Continuing Employees, (ii) permit Continuing Employees and, as applicable, their eligible dependents, to participate in the employee benefit plans, programs or policies (including without limitation any plan intended to qualify within the meaning of Section 401(a) of the Code and any vacation, sick, or personal time off plans or programs) of Parent, or (iii) a combination of clauses (i) and (ii). To the extent Parent elects to have Continuing Employees and their eligible dependents participate in its employee benefit plans, program or policies following the Effective Time, Parent shall, and shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, treat, and cause the applicable benefit plans in which Continuing Employees are entitled to participate to treat, the service of Continuing Employees with the Company or any of its predecessors to the extent previously recognized by the Company as of the date hereof attributable to any period before the Effective Time as service rendered to Parent, the Surviving Corporation, any Subsidiary of Parent for purposes of eligibility to participate, vesting and for other appropriate benefits including the applicability of minimum waiting periods for participation, but excluding benefit accrual (including minimum pension amount), equity incentive plans and eligibility for early retirement under any benefit plan of Parent or eligibility for retiree welfare benefit plans or as would otherwise result in a duplication of benefits. Without limiting the foregoing: (i) Parent shall cause any pre-existing conditions or actively at work or similar limitations, eligibility waiting periods, evidence of insurability requirements or required physical examinations under any health or similar plan of Parent to be waived with respect to Continuing Employees and their eligible dependents; provided, however, that with respect to preexisting conditions, such conditions shall be waived to the extent waived under the corresponding plan in which Continuing Employees participated immediately prior to the date Continuing Employees and their eligible dependents are transitioned to Parent’s health or similar plans and (ii) in the event Continuing Employees are placed onto Parent’s paid time off or vacation policy, program, plan or arrangement, Parent shall continue to recognize any paid time off balance theretofore accrued with the Company or, in lieu of such recognition, make a cash payment to Continuing Employees in an amount equal to any such accrued paid time off forfeited. Parent shall also use commercially reasonable efforts to cause any deductibles paid by Continuing Employees under any of the Company’s health plans in the plan year in which Continuing Employees and their eligible dependents are transitioned to Parent’s health or similar plans to be credited towards deductibles under the health plans of Parent or any Subsidiary of Parent.

(c) For a period of one year following the Effective Time or such longer time as required by applicable Laws, Parent will provide, or will cause to be provided severance in accordance with the Company’s severance plans as set forth in Section 5.9(c) of the Company Disclosure Schedule, or, if higher, in accordance with local laws outside of the United States.

(d) For the terms of the agreements or arrangements, Parent shall assume and cause the Company or the Surviving Corporation, as applicable, to honor, in accordance with their terms,

the severance and change in control agreements and retention arrangements that are listed on Section 5.9(d) of the Company Disclosure Schedule (the “Company Employee Agreements”).

(e) Parent shall, or shall cause one of its affiliates, to pay, to the extent not already paid prior to the Closing, bonuses to (i) employees of the Company as of immediately prior to the Closing who are participants of the Company’s Short-Term Incentive Plan, known as the “AIP,” in respect of calendar year 2017 (“2017 AIP Bonuses”) and (ii) employees of the Company as of immediately prior to the Closing who are participants of the Company’s Performance Bonus Program, known as the “PBP,” in respect of calendar year 2017 (“0000 XXX Bonuses”), such participants and their allocations of 2017 AIP Bonuses and 0000 XXX Bonuses, as applicable, to be determined by the Company and memorialized on a schedule to be provided to Parent no later than fifteen (15) Business Days prior to the anticipated Closing Date. The 2017 AIP Bonuses and 0000 XXX Bonuses shall be payable in two installments, as follows: (x) 75% of the actual 2017 AIP Bonus or actual 0000 XXX Bonus amount to which such employee would be entitled for the full calendar year under the terms of the applicable plan based on actual performance (as determined by the Company prior to the Closing) for the period beginning January 1, 2017 and ending September 30, 2017, up to an amount equal to 75% of such employee’s target 2017 AIP Bonus amount or target 0000 XXX Bonus amount, as applicable, which amount shall be paid to such employee following the occurrence of the Closing, through the Surviving Corporation’s payroll no more than ten (10) Business Days following the Effective Time; provided, that such payment amount will be pro-rated to take into account any such employee’s partial year of employment; and (y) an amount equal to the difference, if any, between (A) the actual 2017 AIP Bonus or actual 0000 XXX Bonus amount to which such employee would be entitled under the terms of the applicable plan for the full performance period based on actual performance during such period (evaluated and determined in accordance with the Company’s past practices prior to the Closing) and (B) the amount paid to such employee pursuant to subclause (x) above, with such second installment amount payable at the time that the 2017 AIP Bonuses or 0000 XXX Bonuses would normally be paid by the Company (but no later than March 15, 2018). Payments set forth in this Section 5.9(e) shall be subject to each employee’s continued employment through the date the final 2017 AIP Bonus or 0000 XXX Bonus is paid (unless otherwise provided in a Company Employee Agreement); provided, however, that if any such employee’s employment is terminated by Parent or any of its affiliates without cause following the Closing but prior to payment of such 2017 AIP Bonus or 0000 XXX Bonus, as applicable, such employee will continue to be eligible to receive any 2017 AIP Bonus or 0000 XXX Bonus to which such employee would have otherwise have been entitled, payable at same time the bonuses are paid to other employees.

(f) Parent shall, or shall cause one of its affiliates, to, to the extent not already paid prior to the Closing, pay bonuses to employees of the Company as of immediately prior to the Closing who participate in the Company’s 2017 Client Account Management Sales Incentive Plan, known as the “CAM” in respect of calendar year 2017 (“2017 CAM Bonuses”) in an amount based on individual achievement under the terms of the 2017 CAM, as applicable to each such employee in the normal course under the terms of the 2017 CAM program. The 2017 CAM Bonuses shall be paid by Parent or one of its affiliates at the time that the 2017 CAM Bonuses would normally be paid by the Company (but no later than March 15, 2018), subject to the employee’s continued employment with the Parent or its affiliates until the date of payment; provided, that in the event of the termination of the employment of the employee entitled to receive such 2017 CAM Bonus by Parent or any of its affiliates without cause following the Closing but prior to payment of such 2017 CAM Bonus, such employee shall continue to be eligible to receive the 2017 CAM Bonus to which the employee would have otherwise have been entitled, payable at same time the 2017 CAM Bonuses are paid to other employees.

(g) From and after the Closing, Parent shall, or shall cause one of its affiliates to, be bound by, and to comply with the terms of the Company CBAs as ratified and in effect on the Closing until Parent or its affiliates negotiate a new collective agreement. Notwithstanding anything to

the contrary in this Section 5.9, Parent further agrees that the provisions of this Section 5.9 shall be subject to any applicable provisions of the Company CBA in respect of Continuing Employees, to the extent such provisions are inconsistent with or otherwise in conflict with the provisions of any such Company CBA.

(h) To the extent Parent elects to have Continuing Employees and their eligible dependents participate in its employee benefit plans, program or policies following the Effective Time, as soon as practicable following the Closing, Parent shall, or shall cause its Affiliates to, cause the Code Section 401(k) plan maintained by Parent or its Affiliates in which the Continuing Employees are eligible to participate to accept rollover contributions of “eligible rollover distributions” (within the meaning of Section 401(a)(31) of the Code) from under the Company’s 401(k) Plan (the “401(k) Plan”), including the amount of any unpaid balance of any participant loan made under the 401(k) Plan provided that such rollover must be made in all cash. With respect to the calendar year quarter during which the Effective Time occurs, Parent shall, or shall cause one of its affiliates to, make matching employer contributions consistent with the Company’s past practice under the 401(k) Plan to each 401(k) Plan participant within 15 Business Days following the calendar year quarter end.

(i) To the extent Parent elects to have Continuing Employees and their eligible dependents participate in its employee benefit plans, program or policies following the Effective Time, following the Closing, the Code Section 125 flexible spending plan maintained or to be established by Parent or one of its Affiliates (the “Parent 125 Plan”) shall credit each Continuing Employee’s flexible spending account with the balance recognized by the Company immediately prior to Closing. Each Continuing Employee eligible to participate in the Parent 125 Plan shall be permitted to continue his or her election in effect under the flexible spending account maintained by an Acquired Company for the remainder of the calendar year in which the Closing Date occurs, subject to the limitation on contributions contained in the related Company Benefit Plan, and Parent shall, or shall cause its Affiliates to, honor any such election, and the Parent 125 Plan shall honor any claims incurred by a Continuing Employee during such calendar year that would otherwise be an eligible expense under the related Company Benefit Plan, whether or not such expense was incurred before, on or after the Closing Date.

(j) With respect to any Continuing Employees based outside of the United States, Parent’s obligations under this Section 5.9 shall be modified to the extent necessary to comply with applicable Laws of the foreign countries and political subdivisions thereof in which such Continuing Employees are based.

(k) Nothing in this Agreement will require the continued employment of any Person, and except as expressly set forth in this Section 5.9 and as set forth on Section 5.9 of the Company Disclosure Schedule, no provision of this Agreement will (i) prevent Parent or the Surviving Corporation from amending or terminating any Company Benefit Plan, Foreign Benefit Plan or benefit plans of any Parent or Parent Subsidiaries or (ii) be construed as to establish, amend or modify any benefit or compensation plan, program or agreement including any Company Benefit Plan and Foreign Benefit Plan.

(l) The Company and Parent acknowledge and agree that all provisions contained in this Section 5.9 with respect to employees are included for the sole benefit of the respective parties and will not create any right in any other Person, including any employees, former employees, any participant in any Company Benefit Plan or any beneficiary thereof.

5.10 Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

(a) For a period of six years from and after the Effective Time, Parent and the Surviving Corporation will indemnify and hold harmless all past and present directors and officers of the Company to the same extent such Persons are required to be indemnified as of the date of this Agreement by the Company pursuant to applicable Law, the Company Charter, the Company Bylaws and indemnification agreements in existence on the date of this Agreement with any directors and officers of the Company and made available to Parent prior to the date of this Agreement, in each case arising out of acts or omissions in their capacity as directors or officers of the Company occurring or alleged to have occurred at or prior to the Effective Time, whether asserted or claimed prior to, at or after the Effective Time (including acts or omissions occurring in connection with the approval of this Agreement and the consummation of the Merger). Parent and the Surviving Corporation will advance as incurred expenses (including reasonable legal fees and expenses) to all past and present directors and officers of the Company incurred in the defense of any Proceedings with respect to the matters subject to indemnification pursuant to this Section 5.10(a) in accordance with the procedures set forth in the Company Bylaws and indemnification agreements in existence on the date of this Agreement and made available to Parent prior to the date of this Agreement, subject to the Surviving Company’s receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of such person to repay such expenses if it is ultimately determined that such person is not entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Section 5.10(a). In the event of any Proceeding pursuant to which any person may claim indemnification pursuant to this Section 5.10, (i) the Surviving Corporation may control the defense of any such Proceeding (other than in respect of any Proceeding that seeks non-monetary relief or involves criminal or quasi-criminal allegations) and (ii) no Person who may claim indemnification pursuant to this Section 5.10 may settle, compromise, or consent to the entry of any judgment in any such Proceeding without the prior written consent of the Surviving Corporation, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

(b) For a period of six years from and after the Effective Time, Parent will cause the certificate of incorporation and bylaws of the Surviving Corporation to contain provisions no less favorable with respect to exculpation and indemnification of and advancement of expenses to directors and officers of the Company for periods at or prior to the Effective Time than are currently set forth in the Company Charter and the Company Bylaws. Parent and the Surviving Corporation will cause the indemnification agreements in existence on the date of this Agreement and made available to Parent prior to the date of this Agreement with any of the directors or officers of the Company to continue in full force and effect in accordance with their terms following the Effective Time.

(c) For six years from and after the Effective Time, Parent will cause the Surviving Corporation to maintain for the benefit of the Company’s directors and officers, as of the date of this Agreement and as of the Effective Time, an insurance and indemnification policy that provides coverage for events occurring on or prior to the Effective Time (the “D&O Insurance”) that is substantially equivalent to and in any event not less favorable in the aggregate than the Company’s existing policy (accurate and complete copies which have been previously provided to Parent) or, if substantially equivalent insurance coverage is unavailable, the best available coverage; provided, however, that the Surviving Corporation will not be required to pay an annual premium for the D&O Insurance in excess of 300% of the last annual premium paid prior to the date of this Agreement (which annual premium is hereby represented and warranted by the Company to be as set forth in Section 5.10(c) of the Company Disclosure Schedule). The provisions of the immediately preceding sentence will be deemed to have been satisfied if prepaid policies have been obtained by either Parent or the Company prior to the Effective Time, which policies provide such directors and officers with coverage for an aggregate period of six years with respect to claims arising from facts or events that occurred on or before the Effective Time, including, without limitation, in respect of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; provided, however, that the Company will not obtain any such prepaid policy if the cost of such policy will exceed 300% of the last annual premium paid prior to the date of this Agreement. If such prepaid policies have been obtained prior to the Effective Time, Parent will cause the Surviving

Corporation to maintain such policies in full force and effect and continue to honor the obligations thereunder.

(d) In the event Parent or the Surviving Corporation (i) consolidates with or merges into any other Person and will not be the continuing or surviving corporation or entity of such consolidation or merger or (ii) transfers all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any Person, then proper provision will be made so that such continuing or surviving corporation or entity or transferee of such assets, as the case may be, will assume the obligations set forth in this Section 5.10.

(e) The obligations under this Section 5.10 will (i) continue, notwithstanding any six-year limitation referred to above, until the final disposition of any action, suit, proceeding or investigation brought or commenced during such six-year period and (ii) not be terminated or modified in such a manner as to adversely affect any indemnitee to whom this Section 5.10 applies without the consent of such affected indemnitee (it being expressly agreed that the indemnitees to whom this Section 5.10 applies will be third-party beneficiaries of this Section 5.10).

5.11 State Takeover Laws. If any “control share acquisition,” “fair price,” “business combination” or other anti-takeover Laws becomes or is deemed to be applicable to the Company, Parent, Merger Sub or the Merger, including the acquisition of Shares pursuant thereto, the Support Agreement or any other transaction contemplated by this Agreement, then the Company Board will, as promptly as practicable, take all action necessary to render such Law inapplicable to the foregoing.

5.12 Parent Agreement Concerning Merger Sub. Parent agrees to cause Merger Sub to comply with its obligations under this Agreement.

5.13 Section 16 Matters. Prior to the Effective Time, the Company Board, or an appropriate committee of non-employee directors thereof, will adopt a resolution consistent with the interpretive guidance of the SEC so that the disposition by any officer or director of the Company who is a covered Person of the Company for purposes of Section 16 of the Exchange Act (“Section 16”) of Shares or Company Accelerated Equity Awards pursuant to this Agreement and the Merger will be an exempt transaction for purposes of Section 16.

In the event that alternative financing is arranged in accordance with this Section 5.17(c), the term “Debt Commitment Letters” shall mean the commitment letters for such alternative financing and the term “Debt Financing” shall include such alternative financing. Except for substitutions and replacements pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence, Parent shall not amend, modify, supplement, restate, assign, substitute or replace the Debt Commitment Letters in any manner that would (A) expand or impose new conditions precedent to the funding of the Debt Financing from those set forth therein on the date hereof, (B) extend the timing of the funding of the Debt Financing thereunder or reasonably be expected to impair, delay or prevent the availability of all or a portion of the Debt Financing or the ability of Parent to consummate the Merger in accordance with the terms of the Parent Credit Agreement, (C) reduce the aggregate cash amount of the Debt Financing (including by changing the amount of fees to be paid or original issue discount of the Debt Financing (except as set forth in any “market flex” provisions existing on the date hereof)) or (D) adversely impact in any material respect the remedies available to Parent under the Debt Commitment Letters or the definitive debt agreements with respect thereto, in each case, without the prior written approval of the Company, (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) (it being understood that the exercise of any “market flex” provisions under the Debt Fee Letters shall not be deemed an amendment, replacement, supplement or other modification to or waiver of any provision of the Debt Commitment Letters); provided, that Parent may amend the Debt Commitment Letters to add lenders, lead arrangers, bookrunners, syndication agents or similar entities that have not executed a Debt Commitment Letter as of the date hereof. At the reasonable request of the Company, Parent shall keep the Company informed in reasonable detail of the status of Parent’s efforts to arrange the Debt Financing.

(d) The Company shall, and shall cause the Company Subsidiaries to, use reasonable best efforts (including using reasonable best efforts to cause its and their respective officers, employees and Representatives) to cooperate with Parent in connection with the arrangement of, and the satisfaction on a timely basis of, all conditions precedent to the Debt Financing (as is customary or required in accordance with the terms of the Debt Commitment Letters and as Parent may reasonably request in connection with the Debt Financing), including using reasonable best efforts with respect to the following actions:

All payments under this Section 7.2 will be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account designated by Parent on Section 7.2(e) of the Parent Disclosure Schedule. Each of the Company, Parent and Merger Sub acknowledges that (i) the agreements contained in this Section 7.2 are an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (ii) without these agreements, Parent, Merger Sub and the Company would not enter into this Agreement and (iii) the Breakup Fee is not a penalty, but rather is liquidated damages in a reasonable amount that will

compensate Parent and Merger Sub in the circumstances in which such Breakup Fee is payable for the efforts and resources expended and the opportunities forgone while negotiating this Agreement and in reliance on this Agreement and the expectation of the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Accordingly, if the Company fails to pay the fees due pursuant to this Section 7.2 or any portion thereof and, in order to obtain such payment, Parent and Merger Sub commences a suit which results in a final and nonappealable Order against the Company for such fee or any portion thereof, the Company shall pay to Parent and Merger Sub its costs and expenses (including reasonable attorney’s fees and disbursements) in connection with such suit, together with interest on the amount of the applicable fee (or any portion thereof that has not been paid timely in accordance with this Agreement) and on the amount of such costs and expenses, at the prime lending rate set forth in The Wall Street Journal in effect on the date such payment was required to be made.

(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, in the event that the Breakup Fee and the other amounts set forth in Section 7.2(e) are paid pursuant to this Section 7.2, Parent’s right to receive payment of the Breakup Fee and such other amounts shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of Parent and its Affiliates and Representatives against the Company and its Affiliates and Representatives under this Agreement or arising out of or related to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, and upon payment of such amount, none of the Company or any of its Affiliates or Representatives shall have any liability or obligation relating to or arising out of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, in each case whether based on contract, tort or strict liability, by the enforcement of any assessment, by any legal or equitable proceeding, by virtue of any statute, regulation or applicable Law or otherwise.

7.3 Amendment. This Agreement may be amended by the Company, Parent and Merger Sub by action taken by or on behalf of their respective Boards of Directors at any time prior to the Effective Time, whether before or after adoption of this Agreement by the stockholders of the Company or of Merger Sub; provided, however, that, after adoption of this Agreement by such stockholders, no amendment may be made which by Law requires further approval by such stockholders without obtaining such further approval. This Agreement may not be amended except by an instrument in writing signed by the parties hereto. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 7.3 and Sections 8.9, 8.12 and 8.15 (and any related definition insofar as they affect such Sections) may not be amended, waived or supplemented in a manner adverse to the Financing Sources without the prior written consent of the Financing Sources (other than the Non-Party Affiliates).

7.4 Waiver. At any time prior to the Effective Time, Parent and Merger Sub, on the one hand, and the Company, on the other hand, may (i) extend the time for the performance of any of the obligations or other acts of the other, (ii) waive any Uncured Inaccuracies in the representations and warranties of the other contained herein or in any document delivered pursuant hereto and (iii) waive compliance by the other with any of the agreements or conditions contained herein. Any such extension or waiver will be valid only if set forth in an instrument in writing signed by the party or parties to be bound thereby, but such extension or waiver or failure to insist on strict compliance with an obligation, covenant, agreement or condition will not operate as a waiver of, or estoppel with respect to, any subsequent or other failure.

8.6 Headings. The headings contained in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and will not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.

8.7 Severability. If any term or other provision of this Agreement is determined to be invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by reason of any rule of Law or public policy, all other conditions and provisions of this Agreement will nevertheless remain in full force and effect so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any party hereto. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the parties hereto will negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties hereto as closely as possible in an acceptable manner to the end that transactions contemplated hereby are fulfilled to the extent possible.
