(b) At any meeting of the stockholders of the Company or at any postponement or adjournment thereof or in any other circumstances upon which a vote, adoption or other approval is sought, Stockholder shall vote (or cause to be voted) all of Stockholder’s Subject Shares against each of the following: (i) any Company Takeover Proposal or any agreement relating thereto and (ii) any amendment of the Company Charter or the Company By-laws (other than pursuant to the Merger Agreement) or any other proposal, action, agreement or transaction which, in the case of this clause (ii), could reasonably be expected to (A) result in a breach of any covenant, agreement, obligation, representation or warranty of the Company contained in the Merger Agreement or of Stockholder contained in this Agreement, (B) prevent, impede, interfere or be inconsistent with, delay, discourage or adversely affect the timely consummation of the Transactions, (C) dilute in any material respect the benefits to Parent or Sub of the Transactions or (D) change in any manner the voting rights of the Company Common Stock (the matters described in clauses (i) and (ii), collectively, the “Vote-Down Matters”), provided that, in each case, the Merger Agreement shall not have been amended or modified in a manner adverse to Stockholder.
3
(c) In the event of a Company Adverse Recommendation Change made in compliance with the Merger Agreement, solely in connection with a vote that is subject to Section 3(a), (i) the number of shares of Company Common Stock that shall be considered to be “Subject Shares” for purposes of this Agreement shall be modified to be only such number that is equal to the lesser of (i) 19.25% of the total number of outstanding shares of Company Common Stock and (ii) the amount of Subject Shares held by Stockholder as of such date (the lesser of clause (i) and (ii), the “Lock-Up Subject Shares”), such that Stockholder shall only be obligated to vote the Lock-Up Subject Shares in the manner set forth in Section 3(a) and (ii) Stockholder shall vote (or cause to be voted) all of its remaining Subject Shares in excess of the Lock-Up Subject Shares as it determines in its sole discretion.
(d) Stockholder shall not, and it shall direct its directors, officers and employees and its Representatives not to, (i) directly or indirectly solicit or initiate, or knowingly encourage, induce or facilitate, any Company Takeover Proposal or any inquiry or proposal that may reasonably be expected to lead to a Company Takeover Proposal, or (ii) directly or indirectly participate in any discussions or negotiations with any Person regarding, or furnish to any Person any information with respect to, or cooperate in any way with any Person (whether or not a Person making a Company Takeover Proposal) with respect to, any Company Takeover Proposal or any inquiry or proposal that may reasonably be expected to lead to a Company Takeover Proposal. Stockholder shall, and shall direct its directors, officers and employees and its Representatives to, immediately cease and cause to be terminated all existing discussions or negotiations with any Person conducted heretofore with respect to any Company Takeover Proposal or any inquiry or proposal that may reasonably be expected to lead to a Company Takeover Proposal, request the prompt return or destruction of all confidential information previously furnished any such Person or its Representatives and immediately terminate all physical and electronic data room access, if any, previously granted to any such Person or its Representatives.

The proxy granted in this Section 4 shall expire upon the termination of this Agreement; provided, that with respect to any Subject Shares that are Transferred pursuant to the last sentence of Section 3(e), the proxy granted in this Section 4 shall terminate upon the consummation of such permitted Transfer.
5
(b) Stockholder represents that any proxies heretofore given in respect of Stockholder’s Subject Shares are not irrevocable, and that all such proxies are hereby revoked.
(c) Stockholder hereby affirms that the irrevocable proxy set forth in this Section 4 is given in connection with the execution of the Merger Agreement, and that such irrevocable proxy is given to secure the performance of the duties of Stockholder under this Agreement. Stockholder hereby further affirms that the irrevocable proxy is coupled with an interest and may under no circumstances be revoked. Stockholder hereby ratifies and confirms all that such irrevocable proxy may lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue hereof. Each such irrevocable proxy is executed and intended to be irrevocable in accordance with the provisions of Section 212(e) of the DGCL.

Stockholder shall, from time to time, execute and deliver, or cause to be executed and delivered, such additional or further consents, documents and other instruments as Parent may reasonably request for the purpose of effectuating the matters covered by this Agreement, including the grant of the proxies set forth in Section 4 of this Agreement.
SECTION 6. Assignment. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations under this Agreement shall be assigned, in whole or in part, by operation of Law or otherwise by any of the parties hereto without the prior written consent of the other parties hereto; provided, that Parent may assign its rights, interests or obligations pursuant to this Agreement to any direct or indirect wholly owned Subsidiary of Parent so long as Parent continues to remain primarily liable for all of such rights, interests and obligations. Any purported assignment without such consent shall be void. Subject to the preceding sentences of this Section 6, this Agreement shall be binding upon, inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by, the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns.

This Agreement shall terminate upon the earlier of (a) the date on which Stockholder no longer beneficially owns any Shares, provided that Stockholder has not Transferred any Subject Shares in violation of Section 3(e), (b) immediately following the Company Stockholders Meeting duly convened and at which the Company Stockholder Approval has been voted on by the stockholders of the Company (including, if adjourned in accordance with the Merger Agreement, immediately following the final adjournment thereof) and (c) the termination of the Merger Agreement in accordance with its terms, other than Section 8, which shall survive and instead shall expire upon the expiration of all rights of Parent thereunder.
6
SECTION 8. General Provisions. (a) Amendments. This Agreement may not be amended except by an instrument in writing signed by or on behalf of each of the parties hereto.
(b) Notices. All notices, requests, demands and other communications under this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given when delivered personally, when sent by confirmed facsimile, one Business Day after being sent by overnight courier service (providing written proof of delivery) or three Business Days after being mailed by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, with postage prepaid, to Parent in accordance with Section 9.02 of the Merger Agreement and to Stockholder at its address set forth on Schedule A (or at such other address for a party hereto as shall be specified by notice given in accordance with this Section 8(b)).
(c) Interpretation. When a reference is made in this Agreement to a paragraph, a Section or a Schedule, such reference shall be to a paragraph of, a Section of or a Schedule to this Agreement unless otherwise indicated. The headings contained in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement. Whenever the words “include”, “includes” or “including” are used in this Agreement, they shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation”. The words “hereof”, “hereto”, “hereby”, “herein” and “hereunder” and words of similar import when used in this Agreement shall refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular provision of this Agreement. The term “or” is not exclusive. The word “extent” in the phrase “to the extent” shall mean the degree to which a subject or other thing extends, and such phrase shall not mean simply “if”. The definitions contained in this Agreement are applicable to the singular as well as the plural forms of such terms. Any agreement, instrument or Law defined or referred to herein means such agreement, instrument or Law as from time to time amended, modified or supplemented, unless otherwise specifically indicated. References to a Person are also to its permitted successors and assigns. Each of the parties hereto has participated in the drafting and negotiation of this Agreement. If an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement must be construed as if it is drafted by all the parties hereto, and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any party hereto by virtue of authorship of any of the provisions of this Agreement.
(d) Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, all of which shall be considered one and the same agreement, and shall become effective when one or more counterparts have been signed by each of the parties hereto and delivered to the other parties hereto.
(e) Entire Agreement; No Third-Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement (i) constitutes the entire agreement, and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, among the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement and (ii) is not intended to confer upon any Person other than the parties hereto any rights (except the rights conferred upon those Persons specified as proxies in Section 4) or remedies.
7
(f) Governing Law; Consent to Jurisdiction; Venue. (i) This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of New York or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of New York.
(ii) Each of the parties hereto hereby (A) expressly and irrevocably submits to the exclusive personal jurisdiction of the United States District Court of the Southern District of New York (or, to the extent such court declines to accept jurisdiction over a particular matter, the Supreme Court of the State of New York in New York County) in the event any dispute arises out of this Agreement, the Merger Agreement, the Merger or the other transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, (B) agrees that it will not attempt to deny or defeat such personal jurisdiction by motion or other request for leave from any such court, (C) agrees that it will not bring any action relating to this Agreement, the Merger Agreement, the Merger or the other transactions contemplated hereby or thereby in any court other than the United States District Court of the Southern District of New York (or, to the extent such court declines to accept jurisdiction over a particular matter, the Supreme Court of the State of New York in New York County), (D) agrees that each of the other parties hereto shall have the right to bring any action or proceeding for enforcement of a judgment entered by the United States District Court of the Southern District of New York (or, to the extent such court declines to accept jurisdiction over a particular matter, the Supreme Court of the State of New York in New York County) and (E) expressly and irrevocably waives (and agrees not to plead or claim) any objection to the laying of venue of any action arising out of this Agreement, the Merger Agreement, the Merger or the other transactions contemplated hereby or thereby in the United States District Court of the Southern District of New York (or, to the extent such court declines to accept jurisdiction over a particular matter, the Supreme Court of the State of New York in New York County) or that any such action brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum. Each of Parent and Stockholder agrees that a final judgment in any action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by Law.
(g) Severability. If any term or other provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any rule of Law or public policy, all other conditions and provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect so long as either the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any party hereto or such party waives its rights under this Section 8(g) with respect thereto. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the parties hereto shall 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.
(h) Specific Performance. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached, and that monetary damages, even if available, would not be an adequate remedy therefor. It is accordingly agreed that, prior to the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 7, the parties hereto shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the performance of terms and provisions of this Agreement, without proof of actual damages (and each party hereto hereby waives any requirement for the securing or posting of any bond in connection with such remedy), this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at Law or in equity. The parties hereto further agree not to assert that a remedy of specific enforcement is unenforceable, invalid, contrary to Law or inequitable for any reason, nor to assert that a remedy of monetary damages would provide an adequate remedy for any such breach.
8
(i) Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY SUIT, ACTION OR OTHER PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT, THE MERGER AGREEMENT, THE MERGER OR ANY OF THE OTHER TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY. EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF ANY ACTION, SUIT OR PROCEEDING, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVER AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 8(i).
(j) Expenses. All fees and expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby shall be paid by the party incurring such fees and expenses, whether or not such transactions are consummated.
