ARTICLE 3

MANNER OF CONVERSION OF STOCK

SECTION 3.1 Merger Consideration. Upon the Effective Time, (a) each share of SpinCo common stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall, by virtue of the Merger and without any action by or on behalf of the parties hereto, be converted into one share of Echo Common Stock (and, if applicable, cash in lieu of fractional shares of Echo Common Stock payable in accordance with Section 3.3); and (b) each share of capital stock of Echo issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall remain issued and outstanding

upon and immediately after the Effective Time. “Echo Common Stock” means shares of common stock of Echo having such terms and such powers, preferences and rights, and qualifications, limitations or restrictions, as provided by the Certificate of Incorporation of Echo or by applicable law, in each case as of immediately prior to the Effective Time.

SECTION 3.2 Exchange of Certificates.

(a) Pursuant to Section 3.02 of the Separation Agreement, the Exchange Agent (as defined in the Separation Agreement), if any, and the Distribution Agent (as defined in the Separation Agreement) shall hold, for the account of the relevant SpinCo shareholders, the global certificate(s) representing all of the outstanding shares of SpinCo common stock transferred in the Distribution.

(b) Prior to or at the Effective Time, or as otherwise reasonably requested by SpinCo, Echo shall deposit with the Exchange Agent, if any, and the Distribution Agent, as applicable, for the benefit of the holders of shares of SpinCo common stock, for exchange in accordance with this Article 3 through the Exchange Agent or Distribution Agent, as the case may be, evidence in book entry form representing the shares of Echo Common Stock issuable pursuant to this Article 3 in exchange for outstanding shares of SpinCo common stock (such shares of Echo Common Stock, together with any dividends or distributions with respect thereto, being hereafter referred to as the “Exchange Fund”). For the purposes of such deposit, Echo shall assume that there will not be any fractional shares of Echo Common Stock. The Exchange Agent, if any, and the Distribution Agent shall, pursuant to irrevocable instructions, deliver the Echo Common Stock to be issued pursuant to this Article 3 out of the Exchange Fund. The Exchange Fund shall not be used for any other purpose.

(c) None of the parties hereto, the Exchange Agent and the Distribution Agent shall be liable to any Person in respect of any shares of SpinCo common stock or Echo Common Stock (in either case for any dividends or distributions with respect thereto) or cash from the Exchange Fund delivered to a public official pursuant to any abandoned property, escheat or similar law.

SECTION 3.3 No Fractional Shares.

(a) No certificates or scrip representing fractional shares of Echo Common Stock shall be issued upon the conversion of SpinCo common stock pursuant to Section 3.1, and such fractional share interests shall not entitle the owner thereof to vote or to any rights of a holder of Echo Common Stock. For purposes of this Section 3.3, all fractional shares to which a single record holder would be entitled shall be aggregated.

(b) Fractional shares of Echo Common Stock that would otherwise be allocable to any former holders of SpinCo common stock in the Merger shall be aggregated, and no holder of SpinCo common stock shall receive cash equal to or greater than the value of one full share of Echo Common Stock. The Exchange Agent, if any, and the Distribution Agent shall cause the whole shares obtained from aggregating fractional shares that would otherwise remain across all holders of SpinCo common stock to be sold, in the open market or otherwise as reasonably directed by MCK, and in no case later than 20 business days after the Effective Time. The Exchange Agent,

if any, and the Distribution Agent, as the case may be, shall make available the net proceeds thereof, after deducting any required withholding Taxes and brokerage charges, commissions and transfer Taxes, on a pro rata basis, without interest, as soon as practicable to the holders of SpinCo common stock entitled to receive such cash. Payment of cash in lieu of fractional shares of Echo Common Stock shall be made solely for the purpose of avoiding the expense and inconvenience to Echo of issuing fractional shares of Echo Common Stock and shall not represent separately bargained-for consideration. Provided that Echo issues to the relevant agent the number of shares required to be issued by Echo to such agent pursuant to Section 3.3, Echo shall have no liability whatsoever to any holders of SpinCo common stock with respect to cash delivered in lieu of fractional shares. As used herein, the term “Tax” has the meaning set forth in the Tax Matters Agreement (substantially in the form set forth on Exhibit B) to be entered into by and among Echo, MCK and SpinCo prior to the Distribution (the “Tax Matters Agreement”).

SECTION 3.4 Withholding Rights. Echo, the Distribution Agent and the Exchange Agent (if any), as the case may be, shall deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise required to be paid pursuant to this Agreement such amounts as may be required to be deducted and withheld under the Code or any provision of state, local or foreign Tax Law, and shall remit such amounts to the relevant governmental authority. Any withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Persons otherwise entitled thereto.

SECTION 7.8 Governing Law. This Agreement and any related disputes or claims arising hereunder or with respect hereto shall in all respects be construed, interpreted and enforced in accordance with and governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to its conflicts of law principles.

SECTION 7.9 Jurisdiction; Venue; Services of Process. Each party to this Agreement, by its execution hereof, (a) hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware (unless the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware declines to accept jurisdiction over a particular matter, in which case, in any state courts of the State of Delaware or the United States District Court located in the State of Delaware) for the purpose of any dispute between any of the parties hereto arising in whole or in part under or in connection with this Agreement, (b) hereby waives to the extent not prohibited by applicable legal requirements, and agrees not to assert, by way of motion, as a defense or otherwise, in any such action, any claim that it is not subject personally to the jurisdiction of the above-named courts, that its property is exempt or immune from attachment or execution, that any such action brought in one of the above-named courts should be dismissed on grounds of forum non conveniens, should be transferred or removed to any court other than one of the above-named courts, should be stayed by reason of the pendency of some other proceeding in any other court other than one of the above-named courts, or that this agreement or the subject matter hereof may not be enforced in or by such court and (c) hereby agrees not to commence any such action other than before one of the above-named courts. Notwithstanding the previous sentence, a party hereto may commence any action in a court other than those described in this Section 7.9 above for the purpose of enforcing an order or judgment issued by one of the above-named courts. Each party hereto hereby (a) consents to service of process in any action between the parties arising in whole or in part under or in connection with this Agreement in any manner permitted by Delaware law, (b) agrees that service of process made in accordance with clause (a) will constitute good and valid service of process in any such action and (c) waives and agrees not to assert (by way of motion, as a defense, or otherwise) in any such action any claim that service of process made in accordance with clause (a) or (b) does not constitute good and valid service of process.

SECTION 7.10 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which will be deemed an original, but all of which together will constitute but one and the same instrument.

EACH PARTY CERTIFIES AND ACKNOWLEDGES THAT (I) NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER, (II) EACH SUCH PARTY UNDERSTANDS AND HAS CONSIDERED THE IMPLICATIONS OF THIS WAIVER, (III) EACH SUCH PARTY MAKES THIS WAIVER VOLUNTARILY, AND (IV) EACH SUCH PARTY HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 7.11.

Section 7.12. Severability.
