AGREEMENT TO TENDER
Section 1.01 Agreement
to Tender. Shareholder shall exercise all of its rights with respect to the Subject Shares to, and use its best efforts to,
duly tender, in the Offer, all of the Subject Shares pursuant to and in accordance with the terms of the Offer, provided the Per
Share Amount does not decrease. Promptly, but in any event no later than ten (10) Business Days after the commencement of the Offer,
Shareholder shall exercise all of its rights with respect to the Subject Shares to, and use its best efforts to, (a) deliver to
the depositary designated in the Offer (the “Depositary”) (i) a letter of transmittal with respect to its Subject
Shares complying with the terms of the Offer, (ii) a certificate or certificates representing the Subject Shares and (iii) all
other documents or instruments required to be delivered pursuant to the terms of the Offer, and/or (b) instruct Shareholder’s
broker or such other person that is the holder of record of the Subject Shares beneficially owned by Shareholder to tender such
Subject Shares pursuant to and in accordance with the terms of the Offer. Shareholder shall duly tender to Merger Sub during any
subsequent offering period provided by Merger Sub in accordance with the terms of the Offer all of the Subject Shares, if any,
which shall have been issued during the Offer or any subsequent extension period. Shareholder agrees that once its Subject Shares
are tendered pursuant to the terms hereof, Shareholder will not withdraw any tender of such Subject Shares, unless and until (x)
the Offer shall have been terminated or shall have expired, in each case, in accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreement,
or (y) this Agreement shall have been terminated in accordance with Section 3.03 hereof.
Section 1.02 Voting
of Subject Shares. (a) At every meeting of the shareholders of the Company called for such purpose, and at every adjournment
or postponement thereof, Shareholder shall, or shall cause the holder of record on any applicable record date to, vote its Subject
Shares (to the extent that any of Shareholder’s Subject Shares are not purchased in the Offer) (i) in favor of the adoption
of the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby, (ii) against (A) any agreement or arrangement related to any
Acquisition Proposal, other than the Merger, (B) any liquidation, dissolution, recapitalization, extraordinary dividend or other
significant corporate reorganization of the Company or any of the Company subsidiaries and (C) any action that would materially
impede, interfere with, delay, postpone or adversely affect in any material respect the Merger and the transactions contemplated
by the Merger Agreement and (iii) in favor of any other matter necessary for consummation of the transactions contemplated by the
Merger Agreement which is considered at any such meeting of shareholders, and in connection therewith, Shareholder shall execute
any documents which are necessary or appropriate in order to effectuate the foregoing. Shareholder shall retain at all times the
right to vote its Subject Shares in its sole discretion and without any other limitation on those matters other than those set
forth in this Section 1.02 that are at any time or from time to time presented for consideration to the Company’s
shareholders generally. In the event that any meeting of the shareholders of the Company is held, Shareholder shall, or shall cause
the holder of record on any applicable record date to, appear at such meeting or otherwise cause its Subject Shares (to the extent
that any of Shareholder’s Subject Shares are not purchased in the Offer) to be counted as present thereat for purposes of
establishing a quorum.
Section 1.03 Irrevocable
Proxy. Shareholder hereby irrevocably appoints Merger Sub as its attorney and proxy, with full power of substitution, to vote,
and otherwise act (by written consent or otherwise) with respect to all Subject Shares that Shareholder is entitled to vote at
any meeting of shareholders of the Company (whether annual, special or other meeting and whether or not an adjourned or postponed
meeting) or written consent in lieu of any such meeting or otherwise, to vote such Subject Shares as set forth in Section 1.02
hereof; provided that in any such vote or other action pursuant to such proxy, Merger Sub shall not have the right (and
such proxy shall not confer the right) to vote to reduce the Per Share Amount or to otherwise modify or amend the Merger Agreement
to reduce the rights or benefits of the Company or any shareholders of the Company (including Shareholder) under the Merger Agreement
or to reduce the obligations of Parent or Merger Sub thereunder; and provided further that this proxy shall irrevocably
cease to be in effect upon the termination of the Merger Agreement in accordance with its terms. SUBJECT TO THE FOREGOING, THIS
PROXY AND POWER OF ATTORNEY IS IRREVOCABLE AND COUPLED WITH AN INTEREST. Shareholder hereby revokes, effective upon the execution
and delivery of this Agreement by the parties hereto, all other proxies and powers of attorney with respect to the Subject Shares
that it may have heretofore appointed or granted, and no subsequent proxy or power of attorney (except in furtherance of its obligations
under Section 1.02 hereof) shall be given or written consent executed (and if given or executed, shall not be effective)
by it with respect thereto so long as this Agreement remains in effect. Shareholder shall forward to Parent and Merger Sub any
proxy cards, if any, that Shareholder receives with respect to the Merger Agreement.
Section 1.04 No
Transfers; No Inconsistent Arrangements. Except as provided hereunder or under the Merger Agreement, Shareholder shall not,
directly or indirectly, (a) transfer (which term shall include any sale, assignment, gift, pledge, hypothecation or other disposition),
or consent to or permit any such transfer of, any or all of Shareholder’s Subject Shares or any interest therein (except
where the transferee or third party agrees in writing to be bound by the terms hereof), or create or permit to exist any lien that
would prevent Shareholder from tendering its Subject Shares in accordance with this Agreement or from complying with its other
obligations under this Agreement, (b) enter into any contracts inconsistent with the terms hereof with respect to any transfer
of such Subject Shares or any interest therein, (c) grant or permit the grant of any proxy, power of attorney or other authorization
in or with respect to such Subject Shares relating to the subject matter hereof, (d) deposit or permit the deposit of such Subject
Shares into a voting trust or enter into a voting agreement or arrangement with respect to such Subject Shares or (e) take or permit
any other action that would in any way restrict, limit or interfere with the performance of its obligations hereunder or the transactions
contemplated hereby.
Section 1.05 Documentation
and Information. Shareholder (a) consents to and authorizes the publication and disclosure by Parent and Merger Sub of its
identity and holding of Subject Shares, and the nature of its commitments, arrangements and understandings under this Agreement,
in any press release, the Offer Documents, or any other disclosure document required in connection with the Offer, the Merger and
any transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, and (b) agrees to give to Parent and Merger Sub as promptly as practicable
any information reasonably related to the foregoing that it may reasonably require for the preparation of any such disclosure documents.
Shareholder agrees to notify Parent as promptly as practicable of any required corrections with respect to any written information
supplied by Shareholder specifically for use in any such disclosure document, if and to the extent Shareholder becomes aware that
any such information shall have become false or misleading in any material respect.
Section 1.06 Changes
to Shares. In the event of any stock dividend or distribution, or any change to the Shares by reason of any stock dividend
or distribution, split-up, recapitalization, combination, exchange of shares or any other similar transaction, the term “Shares”
as used in this Agreement shall be deemed to refer to and include the Shares and all such stock dividends and distributions and
any securities into which or for which any or all of the Shares may be changed or exchanged or which are received in the relevant
transaction.
Section 1.07 Representations
and Warranties. Shareholder represents and warrants to Parent and Merger Sub as follows:
This Agreement has
been duly and validly executed and delivered by Shareholder and, assuming this Agreement constitutes a valid and binding obligation
of each of Parent and Merger Sub, constitutes a legal, valid and binding agreement of Shareholder enforceable against Shareholder
in accordance with its terms. Shareholder has the legal capacity, power and authority to enter into and perform all of Shareholder’s
obligations under this Agreement. The execution, delivery and performance by Shareholder of this Agreement and the consummation
of the transactions contemplated hereby do not and will not conflict with, or result in the breach or termination of or constitute
a default (with or without the giving of notice or the lapse of time or both) under, any provision of any contract binding upon
Shareholder or any of its affiliates, except for any such conflicts, breaches, terminations and defaults which would not, individually
or in the aggregate, be reasonably expected to prevent, delay or impair the consummation by Shareholder of the transactions contemplated
by this Agreement. Shareholder has, and on the date Merger Sub becomes obligated to accept for payment, purchase and pay for the
Subject Shares Shareholder will have, good and valid title to the Subject Shares, free and clear of any liens, proxies, voting
trusts or agreements, understandings or arrangements. There are no options or rights to acquire, or any agreements to which Shareholder
is a party relating to, the Subject Shares, other than this Agreement and as set forth on Annex I. As of the date hereof,
the Shares listed on Annex I represent all of the securities of the Company beneficially owned (within the meaning of Rule
13d-3 under the Exchange Act) by Shareholder.
