Subject to the terms of this Agreement, each Stockholder hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that, during the time this Agreement is in effect, at any annual or special meeting of the stockholders of the Company, however called, including any adjournment or postponement thereof, and in connection with any action proposed to be taken by written consent of the stockholders of the Company, such Stockholder shall, in each case to the fullest extent that such Stockholder’s Subject Securities are entitled to vote thereon: (a) appear at each such meeting or otherwise cause all such Subject Securities to be counted as present thereat for purposes of determining a quorum; and (b) be present (in person or by proxy) and vote (or cause to be voted), or deliver (or cause to be delivered) a written consent with respect to, all of his or its Subject Securities (i) against any action or agreement that would reasonably be expected to (A) result in a breach of any covenant, representation or warranty or any other obligation of the Company contained in the Merger Agreement, or of any Stockholder contained in this Agreement, or (B) result in any of the conditions set forth in Article VIII or Annex I of the Merger Agreement not being satisfied on or before the Outside Date; (ii) against any change in the membership of the Company Board and (iii) against any Takeover Proposal and against any other action, agreement or transaction involving the Company that is intended, or would reasonably be expected, to impede, interfere with, delay, postpone or prevent the consummation of the Offer or the Merger, including (A) any extraordinary corporate transaction, such as a merger, consolidation or other business combination involving the Company (other than the Merger), (B) any sale, lease, license or transfer of a material amount of assets (including, for the avoidance of doubt, intellectual property rights, but excluding for the avoidance of doubt, any licenses of intellectual property rights permitted by the terms of the Merger Agreement)) of the Company or any reorganization, recapitalization or liquidation of the Company, or (C) any amendment to the Company Certificate of Incorporation or Company Bylaws. Subject to the proxy granted under Section 1.3, each Stockholder shall retain at all times the right to vote such Stockholder’s Subject Securities in such Stockholder’s sole and absolute discretion, and without any other limitation, on any matters other than those expressly set forth in this Section 1.2 that are at any time or from time to time presented for consideration to the Company’s stockholders generally.

1.3. Irrevocable Proxy. Solely to effect the matters described in Section 1.2, for so long as this Agreement remains in effect, each Stockholder hereby irrevocably appoints Parent as its attorney-in-fact and proxy with full power of substitution and resubstitution, to the full extent of such Stockholder’s voting rights with respect to all such Stockholder’s Subject Securities (which proxy is irrevocable and which appointment is coupled with an interest, including for purposes of Section 212 of the DGCL) to vote, and to execute written consents with respect to, all such Stockholder’s Subject Securities solely on the matters described in Section 1.2, and in accordance therewith. Each Stockholder agrees to execute any further agreement or form reasonably necessary or appropriate to confirm and effectuate the grant of the proxy contained herein.
