As soon as practicable following the Acceptance Time, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement and in accordance with the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, as amended (the “DGCL”), the Purchaser will be merged with and into the Company, with the Company continuing as the surviving corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of the Parent (the “Merger”), with the Merger to be effected pursuant to Section 251(h) of the DGCL.

AGREEMENT

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing, and the covenants, premises, representations and warranties and agreements contained in this Agreement and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which are hereby acknowledged, and intending to be legally bound, the parties to this Agreement agree as follows:

ARTICLE 1
THE OFFER AND THE MERGER

1.1 The Offer.

(a) Provided that this Agreement shall not have been terminated in accordance with Article 7, as promptly as practicable (but in no event later than July 11, 2016) after the date hereof, the Purchaser shall (and the Parent shall cause the Purchaser to) commence, within the meaning of Rule 14d-2 under the Exchange Act, the Offer to purchase for cash any and all Shares at the Offer Price. The Purchaser shall, and the Parent shall cause the Purchaser to, accept for payment, purchase and pay for all Shares validly tendered and not properly withdrawn pursuant to the Offer, subject only to: (i) there being validly tendered in the Offer (in the aggregate) and not properly withdrawn prior to the Expiration Date that number of Shares (other than Shares tendered by guaranteed delivery where actual delivery has not occurred) that,

together with the number of Shares (if any) then owned by the Parent or the Purchaser, represent at least a majority of the Shares then issued and outstanding (which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall include the Company Restricted Shares) (the “Minimum Condition”); and (ii) the satisfaction, or waiver by the Parent or the Purchaser, of the other conditions and requirements set forth in Annex I.

(b) On or prior to the date that the Purchaser becomes obligated to pay for Shares pursuant to the Offer, the Parent shall provide or cause to be provided to the Purchaser on a timely basis funds sufficient to purchase and pay for any and all Shares that the Purchaser shall become obligated to accept for payment and purchase pursuant to the Offer. Subject to the satisfaction of the Minimum Condition and the satisfaction, or waiver by the Parent or the Purchaser, of the other conditions and requirements set forth in Annex I, the Purchaser shall accept for payment (the time of such acceptance, the “Acceptance Time”) and pay for all Shares validly tendered and not properly withdrawn pursuant to the Offer as soon as practicable following the Expiration Date, and, in any event, no more than two Business Days after the Expiration Date. The Offer Price payable in respect of each Share validly tendered and not properly withdrawn pursuant to the Offer shall be paid to the seller in cash, without interest, subject to any withholding of Taxes as provided in Section 2.6, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement.

(c) The Offer shall be made by means of an offer to purchase (the “Offer to Purchase”) that describes the terms and conditions of the Offer in accordance with applicable Law and this Agreement, including the conditions and requirements set forth in Annex I. To the extent permitted by applicable Law, the Parent and the Purchaser expressly reserve the right to increase the Offer Price or to make any other changes to the terms and conditions of the Offer; provided, however, that except with the prior written consent of the Company, the Parent and the Purchaser shall not (i) decrease the Offer Price, (ii) change the form of consideration payable in the Offer, (iii) reduce the maximum number of Shares sought to be purchased in the Offer, (iv) amend, modify or waive the Minimum Condition or the conditions set forth in clauses (c)(i) or (c)(ii) of Annex I, (v) amend any of the other conditions set forth in Annex I in a manner adverse to the holders of Shares, (vi) impose conditions to the Offer that are in addition to the conditions to the Offer set forth in Annex I hereto, (vii) except as provided in Sections 1.1(e) and 1.1(f), terminate, accelerate, extend or otherwise modify or amend the Expiration Date, or (viii) otherwise modify or amend any of the other terms of the Offer in a manner adverse in any material respect to the holders of Shares.

(d) Unless extended in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the Offer shall expire at 12:00 midnight (New York City time) on the date that is twenty (20) Business Days following the commencement of the Offer (determined in accordance with Rule 14d-1(g)(3) under the Exchange Act) (such date and time, the “Initial Expiration Date”) or, if the Initial Expiration Date has been extended in accordance with this Agreement, the date and time to which the Offer has been so extended (the Initial Expiration Date, or such later date and time to which the Initial Expiration Date has been extended in accordance with this Agreement, the “Expiration Date”).

(e) If on any then scheduled Expiration Date, any of the conditions to the Offer (including the Minimum Condition and the other conditions and requirements set forth

in Annex I) have not been satisfied or, to the extent waivable by the Parent or the Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement, waived by the Parent or the Purchaser, the Purchaser shall (and the Parent shall cause the Purchaser to) extend the Offer and the Expiration Date to a date that is not more than ten (10) Business Days after such previously scheduled Expiration Date (the length of such extension to be determined by the Parent in its sole discretion), or such longer period as may be agreed by the parties, in order to permit the satisfaction of such conditions to the Offer; provided, however, that the Purchaser shall not be required to extend the Offer beyond October 25, 2016 (the “Initial Outside Date”); provided, further, in the event that at the Initial Outside Date, all of the conditions to the Offer other than the Minimum Condition and the HSR Condition have been satisfied or, to the extent waivable by the Parent or the Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement, have been waived by the Parent and the Purchaser, the Initial Outside Date shall be extended to December 24, 2016 (the “Extended Outside Date”). In addition, the Purchaser shall extend the Offer for any period or periods required by applicable Law or applicable rules, regulations, interpretations or positions of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) or its staff or NASDAQ.

(f) The Purchaser shall not terminate the Offer prior to any scheduled Expiration Date without the prior written consent of the Company, except if this Agreement has been terminated in accordance with Article 7. If this Agreement is terminated in accordance with Article 7, the Purchaser shall (and the Parent shall cause the Purchaser to) promptly (and in any event within 24 hours following such termination), irrevocably and unconditionally terminate the Offer and shall not acquire any Shares pursuant thereto. If the Offer is terminated or withdrawn by the Purchaser, or this Agreement is terminated in accordance with Article 7 prior to the Acceptance Time, the Purchaser shall (and the Parent shall cause the Purchaser to) promptly return, and shall cause any depositary acting on behalf of the Purchaser to return, in accordance with applicable Law, all tendered Shares to the registered holders thereof and the Purchaser shall not (and the Parent shall cause the Purchaser not to) accept any Shares pursuant to the Offer.

(g) As promptly as practicable on the date of the commencement of the Offer, the Parent and the Purchaser shall file with the SEC, in accordance with Rule 14d-3 under the Exchange Act, a Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO with respect to the Offer (together with all amendments, supplements and exhibits thereto, the “Schedule TO”). The Schedule TO shall include, as exhibits, the Offer to Purchase, a form of letter of transmittal, a form of summary advertisement and a form of notice of guaranteed delivery (collectively, together with any amendments, supplements and exhibits thereto, the “Offer Documents”). The Company consents to the inclusion of a description of the Company Board Recommendation in the Schedule TO and the Offer Documents. The Parent and the Purchaser agree to cause the Offer Documents to be disseminated to holders of Shares, as and to the extent required by federal securities Laws, including the Exchange Act. The Parent and the Purchaser, on the one hand, and the Company, on the other hand, agree to promptly notify the other party and correct any information provided by it for use in the Offer Documents, if and to the extent that such information shall have become false or misleading in any material respect or as otherwise required by applicable Law, and the Purchaser agrees to cause the Offer Documents, as so corrected, to be filed with the SEC and disseminated to holders of Shares, in each case, as and to the extent required by the Exchange Act. So long as the Company Board has not effected a Change of Board Recommendation, the Company and its counsel shall be given a reasonable

opportunity to review the Schedule TO and the Offer Documents before they are filed with the SEC, and the Parent and the Purchaser shall give due consideration to any additions, deletions or changes suggested thereto by the Company and its counsel (it being understood that the Company and its counsel shall provide any comments thereon as soon as reasonably practicable). In addition, so long as the Company Board has not effected a Change of Board Recommendation, the Parent and the Purchaser shall provide the Company and its counsel with copies of any written comments, and shall provide them a written summary of any oral comments, that the Parent and the Purchaser or its counsel may receive from time to time from the SEC or its staff with respect to the Schedule TO or the Offer Documents promptly after receipt of such comments, and any written or oral responses thereto. So long as the Company Board has not effected a Change of Board Recommendation, the Company and its counsel shall be given a reasonable opportunity to review any such responses and the Parent and the Purchaser shall give due consideration to the reasonable additions, deletions or changes suggested thereto by the Company and its counsel (it being understood that the Company and its counsel shall provide any comments thereon as soon as reasonably practicable).

1.2 Company Actions.

(a) Contemporaneous with, or as promptly as practicable (but in no event later than three (3) days) after, the filing of the Schedule TO, the Company shall, in a manner that complies with the rules and regulations promulgated by the SEC under the Exchange Act, including Rule 14d-9 thereunder, file with the SEC a Tender Offer Solicitation/Recommendation Statement on Schedule 14D-9 with respect to the Offer (together with all amendments, supplements and exhibits thereto, the “Schedule 14D-9”) that shall, subject to the provisions of Section 5.3, contain the Company Board Recommendation and include in the Schedule 14D-9, in its entirety, the Fairness Opinion, together with a summary thereof in customary form, and a notice, in compliance with Section 262 of the DGCL, of appraisal rights in connection with the Merger under the DGCL. The Company agrees to cause the Schedule 14D-9 to be disseminated to holders of Shares, as and when required by applicable Laws, including the Exchange Act. If requested by the Purchaser and reasonably practicable, the Company shall cause the Schedule 14D-9 to be mailed or otherwise disseminated to the holders of Shares together with the Offer Documents disseminated to the holders of Shares. The Parent and the Purchaser, on the one hand, and the Company, on the other hand, agree to promptly notify the other party and correct any information included in, or incorporated by reference into, the Schedule 14D-9, if and to the extent that such information shall have become false or misleading in any material respect or as otherwise required by applicable Law, and the Company agrees to cause the Schedule 14D-9, as so corrected, to be filed with the SEC and disseminated to holders of Shares, in each case, as and to the extent required by federal securities Laws, including the Exchange Act. So long as the Company Board has not effected a Change of Board Recommendation, the Parent, the Purchaser and their counsel shall be given a reasonable opportunity to review the Schedule 14D-9 before it is filed with the SEC, and the Company shall give due consideration to the reasonable additions, deletions or changes suggested thereto by the Parent, the Purchaser and their counsel (it being understood that the Parent, the Purchaser and their counsel shall provide any comments thereon as soon as reasonably practicable). In addition, so long as the Company Board has not effected a Change of Board Recommendation, the Company shall provide the Parent, the Purchaser and their counsel with copies of any written comments, and shall provide them with a written summary of any oral comments, that the

Company or its counsel may receive from time to time from the SEC or its staff with respect to the Schedule 14D-9 promptly after receipt of such comments, and any written or oral responses thereto. So long as the Company Board has not effected a Change of Board Recommendation, the Parent, the Purchaser and their counsel shall be given a reasonable opportunity to review any such written responses and the Company shall give due consideration to the reasonable additions, deletions or changes suggested thereto by the Purchaser and its counsel (it being understood that the Parent, the Purchaser and their counsel shall provide any comments thereon as soon as reasonably practicable).

(b) From time to time as reasonably requested by the Purchaser or its agents, the Company shall furnish or cause to be furnished to the Purchaser mailing labels, security position listings, non-objecting beneficial owner lists and any other listings or computer files containing the names and addresses of the record or beneficial holders of the Shares as of the most recent practicable date, and shall promptly furnish the Purchaser with such information (including updated lists of holders of the Shares and their addresses, mailing labels, security position listings and non-objecting beneficial owner lists) and such other assistance as the Purchaser or its agents may reasonably request in communicating with the record and beneficial holders of Shares. In addition, in connection with the Offer, the Company shall cooperate with the Purchaser to disseminate the Offer Documents to holders of Shares held in or subject to any Company Equity Plan, and to permit such holders of Shares to tender Shares in the Offer. Subject to any and all Laws, and except for such steps as are necessary to disseminate the Offer Documents and any other documents necessary to consummate the Merger, the Parent and the Purchaser and their agents shall: (i) hold in confidence the information contained in any such lists of stockholders, mailing labels and listings, computer files or files of securities positions in accordance with the Confidentiality Agreement, (ii) use such information only in connection with the Offer and the Merger, and (iii) if this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Article 7, the Parent and the Purchaser shall dispose of all such information in accordance with the Confidentiality Agreement.

1.3 The Merger.

(a) Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, and in accordance with the DGCL, at the Effective Time, the Purchaser shall be merged with and into the Company. As a result of the Merger, the separate corporate existence of the Purchaser shall cease, and the Company shall continue as the surviving corporation of 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 the Purchaser shall vest in the Surviving Corporation, and all of the debts, liabilities and duties of the Company and the Purchaser shall become the debts, liabilities and duties of the Surviving Corporation.

(b) The Merger shall be effected pursuant to Section 251(h) of the DGCL and shall have the effects set forth in this Agreement and the applicable provisions of the DGCL. The parties agree to take all necessary and appropriate action to cause the Merger to become effective as soon as practicable following the Acceptance Time, without a meeting of stockholders of the Company in accordance with Section 251(h) of the DGCL.

(c) At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger, the certificate of incorporation of the Surviving Corporation shall be amended and restated, so as to read in its entirety in the form set forth as Exhibit A hereto, and as so amended and restated shall be the certificate of incorporation of the Surviving Corporation until thereafter changed or amended as provided therein or by applicable Law. In addition, the Company and the Surviving Corporation shall take all necessary action such that, at the Effective Time, the bylaws of the Surviving Corporation shall be amended and restated, so as to read in its entirety in the form set forth as Exhibit B hereto, and as so amended and restated shall be the bylaws of the Surviving Corporation until thereafter changed or amended as provided therein or by applicable Law.

(d) From and after the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without the necessity of further action by the Company, the directors of the Purchaser immediately prior to the Effective Time or such other individuals designated by the Parent as of the Effective Time shall become the 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 shall 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. From and after the Effective Time, except as determined by the Parent, the officers of the Company immediately prior to the Effective Time shall 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 shall 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.

(e) If, at any time after the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation shall determine, in its sole discretion, or shall be 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 the Purchaser acquired or to be acquired by the Surviving Corporation as a result of, or in connection with, the Merger or otherwise to carry out the purposes of this Agreement, then the officers and directors of the Parent and the Surviving Corporation shall be authorized to execute and deliver, in the name and on behalf of either the Company or the Purchaser, 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 corporation or otherwise, all such other actions and things as may be lawful and 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 the purposes of this Agreement.

(f) Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, if at any time during the period between the date of this Agreement and the Effective Time, any change in the outstanding Equity Interests of the Company shall occur as a result of any reclassification, recapitalization, stock split (including a reverse stock split), subdivision or combination, exchange or readjustment of shares, or any dividend or distribution with a record date during such period, the Offer Price and the Merger Consideration will be equitably adjusted to reflect such change.

1.4 Closing and Effective Time of the Merger. The closing of the Merger (the “Closing”) will take place at 7:00 a.m., Pacific Time, on a date to be specified by the parties (such actual date as the Closing takes place, the “Closing Date”), such date to be no later than the second Business Day after satisfaction or, to the extent permitted hereunder, waiver of all of the applicable 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 satisfaction of such conditions or waiver by the party entitled to waive such conditions), at the offices of Xxxxxx & Xxxxxxx LLP, 000 Xxxxx Xxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxx Xxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxx 00000, unless another time, date or place is agreed to in writing by the parties hereto. At the Closing, the Company shall execute and file a certificate of merger (the “Certificate of Merger”) with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware in accordance with the relevant provisions of the DGCL and shall make all other filings required under the DGCL. The Merger shall become effective at the time the Certificate of Merger shall 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 the Parent, the Purchaser, the Company or their respective stockholders:

(a) Conversion of Shares. Each Share issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, other than Cancelled Shares and except for Dissenting Shares, shall be cancelled and, other than Cancelled Shares, Dissenting Shares and Shares irrevocably accepted for payment in the Offer, shall be converted automatically into the right to receive the Offer Price, without interest (the “Merger Consideration”), payable net to the holder in cash, subject to any withholding of Taxes as provided in Section 2.6, upon surrender of the Certificates or Book-Entry Shares in accordance with Section 2.2.

(b) Cancelled Shares. All Shares that are held in treasury of the Company or by any Company Subsidiary (in each case, other than any such Shares held on behalf of third parties) or held by Parent, Purchaser or any direct or indirect subsidiary of Parent or Purchaser, in each case immediately prior to the Effective Time (the “Cancelled Shares”), shall be cancelled and extinguished without any conversion thereof or consideration paid therefor.

(c) Purchaser Equity Interests. All outstanding Equity Interests of the Purchaser held immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into and become (in the aggregate) one hundred (100) shares of newly and validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable shares of common stock, par value $0.01, of the Surviving Corporation.

2.2 Payment for Securities; Surrender of Certificates.

(a) Paying Agent. At or prior to the Effective Time, the Parent shall designate and select a reputable bank or trust company to act as the paying agent (the identity

and terms of designation and appointment of which shall be reasonably acceptable to the Company) for purposes of effecting the payment of the Merger Consideration in connection with the Merger (the “Paying Agent”). The Parent shall pay, or cause to be paid, the fees and expenses of the Paying Agent. At or prior to the Effective Time, the Purchaser shall deposit, or cause to be deposited, with the Paying Agent the aggregate Merger Consideration to which holders of Shares (other than Cancelled Shares and except for Dissenting Shares) shall be entitled at the Effective Time pursuant to this Agreement (such deposited cash shall be referred to in this Agreement as the “Exchange Fund”). In the event the Exchange Fund is insufficient to make the payments contemplated pursuant to Section 2.1(a), the Parent shall promptly deposit, or cause to be deposited, with the Paying Agent such additional funds to ensure that the Paying Agent has sufficient funds to make such payments. The Exchange Fund shall not be used for any purpose other than to fund payments pursuant to Section 2.1(a), except as expressly provided for in this Agreement. The Exchange Fund shall be invested by the Paying Agent as directed by the Parent, in its sole discretion, pending payment thereof by the Paying Agent to the holders of the Shares; provided, however, that any such investments shall be in obligations of, or guaranteed by, the United States government or rated A-1 or P-1 or better by Xxxxx’x Investor Service, Inc. or Standard & Poor’s Corporation, respectively, and in accordance with the terms of the agreement executed to engage the services of the Paying Agent. Earnings from such investments shall be the sole and exclusive property of the Parent, and no part of such earnings shall accrue to the benefit of holders of Shares.

(b) Procedures for Surrender.

(i) Certificates. As soon as practicable after the Effective Time (and in no event later than three Business Days after the Effective Time), the Surviving Corporation shall cause the Paying Agent to mail to each Person that was, immediately prior to the Effective Time, a holder of record of Shares represented by certificates (the “Certificates”), which Shares were converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration at the Effective Time pursuant to this Agreement: (A) a letter of transmittal, which shall specify that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to the Certificates shall pass, only upon delivery of the Certificates to the Paying Agent, and shall otherwise be in such form as the Parent and the Paying Agent shall reasonably agree; and (B) customary instructions for effecting the surrender of the Certificates (or affidavits of loss in lieu of the Certificates as provided in Section 2.2(e)) in exchange for payment of the Merger Consideration. Upon surrender of a Certificate (or affidavit of loss in lieu of the Certificate as provided in Section 2.2(e)) to the Paying Agent or to such other agent or agents as may be appointed by the Parent, and upon delivery of a letter of transmittal, duly executed and in proper form, with respect to such Certificates, the holder of such Certificates shall be entitled to receive the Merger Consideration for each Share formerly represented by such Certificates (after giving effect to any required Tax withholdings as provided in Section 2.6), any Certificate so surrendered shall forthwith be cancelled. 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 shall be a condition precedent of payment that the Certificate so surrendered shall be properly endorsed or shall be otherwise in proper form for transfer, and the Person requesting such payment shall have paid any transfer and other 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 and shall have established to the satisfaction of the Surviving Corporation that such Taxes either have been paid or are not required to be paid.

No interest will be paid or accrued on any amount payable upon due surrender of the Certificates. Until surrendered as contemplated hereby, each Certificate shall be deemed at any time after the Effective Time to represent only the right to receive the Merger Consideration in cash as contemplated by this Agreement, except for Certificates representing Dissenting Shares, which shall be deemed to represent the right to receive payment of the fair value of such Shares in accordance with and to the extent provided by Section 262 of the DGCL.

(ii) Book-Entry Shares. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, no holder of non-certificated Shares represented by book-entry (“Book-Entry Shares”) shall be required to deliver a Certificate or, in the case of holders of Book-Entry Shares held through The Depository Trust Company, an executed letter of transmittal, to the Paying Agent to receive the Merger Consideration that such holder is entitled to receive pursuant to Section 2.1(a). In lieu thereof, each holder of record of one or more Book-Entry Shares held through The Depository Trust Company whose Shares were converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration shall automatically upon the Effective Time be entitled to receive, and the Parent shall cause the Paying Agent to pay and deliver as promptly as practicable after the Effective Time, in respect of each such Book-Entry Share a cash amount in immediately available funds equal to the Merger Consideration (after giving effect to any required Tax withholdings as provided in Section 2.6), and such Book-Entry Shares of such holder shall forthwith be cancelled. As soon as practicable after the Effective Time (and in no event later than three Business Days after the Effective Time), the Surviving Corporation shall cause the Paying Agent to mail to each Person that was, immediately prior to the Effective Time, a holder of record of Book-Entry Shares not held through The Depository Trust Company: (A) a letter of transmittal, which shall be in such form as the Parent and the Paying Agent shall reasonably agree; and (B) customary instructions for returning such letter of transmittal in exchange for the Merger Consideration. Upon delivery of such letter of transmittal, in accordance with the terms of such letter of transmittal, duly executed, the holder of such Book-Entry Shares shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor a cash amount in immediately available funds equal to the Merger Consideration (after giving effect to any required Tax withholdings as provided in Section 2.6), and such Book-Entry Shares so surrendered shall forthwith be cancelled. Payment of the Merger Consideration with respect to Book-Entry Shares shall only be made to the Person in whose name such Book-Entry Shares are registered. No interest will be paid or accrued on any amount payable upon due surrender of Book-Entry Shares. Until paid or surrendered as contemplated hereby, each Book-Entry Share shall be deemed at any time after the Effective Time to represent only the right to receive the Merger Consideration in cash as contemplated by this Agreement, except for Book-Entry Shares representing Dissenting Shares, which shall be deemed to represent the right to receive payment of the fair value of such Shares in accordance with and to the extend provided by Section 262 of the DGCL.

(c) Transfer Books; No Further Ownership Rights in Shares. At the Effective Time, the stock transfer books of the Company shall be closed and thereafter there shall be no further registration of transfers of Shares 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 shall 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 are presented to the Surviving Corporation for any reason, they shall be cancelled and exchanged as provided in this Agreement.

(d) Termination of Exchange Fund; Abandoned Property; No Liability. Any portion of the Exchange Fund (including any interest received with respect thereto) made available to the Paying Agent that remains unclaimed by the holders of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares on the first anniversary of the Effective Time, upon request by the Parent, will be returned to the Parent or an affiliate thereof designated by the Parent, upon demand, and any such holder who has not tendered its Certificates or Book-Entry Shares for the Merger Consideration in accordance with Section 2.2(b) prior to such time shall thereafter look only to the Surviving Corporation (subject to abandoned property, escheat or other similar Laws) only as general creditors thereof for delivery of the Merger Consideration, without interest and subject to any withholding of Taxes as provided in Section 2.6, in respect of such holder’s surrender of their Certificates or Book-Entry Shares and compliance with the procedures in Section 2.2(b). Any Merger Consideration remaining unclaimed by the holders of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares immediately prior to such time as such amounts would otherwise escheat to, or become property of, any Governmental Entity will, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, become the property of the Parent or an affiliate thereof designated by the Parent, free and clear of any claim or interest of any Person previously entitled thereto. Notwithstanding the foregoing, none of the Parent, the Purchaser, the Surviving Corporation, the Paying Agent or their respective affiliates 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 shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, the Paying Agent shall 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). The Parent may, in its reasonable discretion and as a condition precedent to the payment of such Merger Consideration, require the owners of such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificates to deliver a bond in a reasonable sum as it may reasonably direct as indemnity against any claim that may be made against the Parent, the Purchaser, the Surviving Corporation or the Paying Agent with respect to the Certificates alleged to have been lost, stolen or destroyed.

2.3 Dissenting Shares. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary (but subject to the provisions of this Section 2.3), Shares outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and held by a holder 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”) shall not be converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration but rather shall be entitled only to such rights as are granted by the DGCL to a holder of Dissenting Shares. At the Effective Time, all Dissenting Shares shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be cancelled and shall cease to exist, and each holder of Dissenting Shares shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive the “fair value” of such Dissenting Shares in accordance with Section 262 of the DGCL. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any such holder fails to perfect or otherwise waives, withdraws or loses his right to appraisal under Section 262 of the DGCL or other applicable Law, then, as of the later of the Effective Time or the date of loss of such status, each of such shares shall

automatically be converted into or shall have deemed to have been, at the Effective Time, converted into, as applicable, and shall represent only the right to receive the Merger Consideration, in accordance with Section 2.1(a), without interest and subject to any withholding of Taxes as provided in Section 2.6, following the surrender of the Stock Certificate(s) or Book-Entry Shares representing such shares. The Company shall give the Purchaser prompt written notice of any demands received by the Company for appraisal of Shares and any other instruments served pursuant to the DGCL and received by the Company relating to rights to be paid the fair value of Dissenting Shares. Prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall not, except with the prior written consent of the Purchaser, voluntarily make any payment with respect to, or settle or compromise, any such demands, or approve any withdrawal of any such demands, or agree to do any of the foregoing.

2.4 Treatment of Options, Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units.

(a) Treatment of Options. Immediately prior to the Effective Time, each option to purchase Shares (each, a “Company Option”) under any stock option or other equity or equity-based plan of the Company, including the Amended and Restated ReachLocal, Inc. 2008 Stock Incentive Plan, the ReachLocal, Inc. Director Stock Plan, the ReachLocal, Inc. 2004 Stock Plan, or any other plan, agreement or arrangement (the “Company Equity Plans”), that is unexpired and unexercised immediately prior to the Effective Time, whether or not vested, shall be cancelled and, in exchange therefor, each former holder of any such cancelled Company Option shall be entitled to receive, in consideration of the cancellation of such Company Option and in settlement therefor, a payment in cash (subject to any applicable withholding or other Taxes as provided in Section 2.6) of an amount equal to the product of (i) the total number of Shares subject to such Company Option immediately prior to such cancellation and (ii) the excess, if any, of the Merger Consideration over the exercise price per Share subject to such Company Option immediately prior to such cancellation (such amounts payable hereunder being referred to as the “Option Payments”). No holder of a Company Option that has an exercise price per Share that is equal to or greater than the Merger Consideration shall be entitled to any payment with respect to such cancelled Company Option. On or as soon as practicable following the Closing, but in any event no later than fifteen (15) days following the Closing, (i) the Surviving Corporation shall pay or cause to be paid through its or an Affiliate’s payroll system and subject to withholding, if any, as described in Section 2.6 to each holder of one or more Company Options who is a current or former employee of the Company, such holder’s Option Payment and (ii) the Surviving Corporation shall make, or cause to be made, the payment of the Option Payment to each holder of one or more Company Options who is not a current or former employee of the Company.

(b) Treatment of Restricted Shares. Immediately prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall cause all awards of restricted Shares heretofore granted under any Company Equity Plan that have not heretofore vested (“Company Restricted Shares”) to become fully vested and without further restrictions with respect to ownership rights thereto, thereby causing all Company Restricted Shares to become unrestricted Shares that are converted into the right to receive, at the Effective Time, the Merger Consideration as provided in Section 2.1(a).

(c) Treatment of Restricted Stock Units. Immediately prior to the Effective Time, each outstanding award of restricted stock units granted under any Company

Equity Plan (each a “Company RSU Award”), whether or not vested, shall be cancelled and, in exchange therefor, each former holder of any such cancelled Company RSU Award shall be entitled to receive, in consideration of the cancellation of such Company RSU Award and in settlement therefor, a payment in cash (subject to any applicable withholding or other Taxes as provided in Section 2.6) of an amount equal to the product of (i) the total number of Shares subject to such Company RSU Award immediately prior to such cancellation and (ii) the Merger Consideration (such amounts payable hereunder being referred to as the “RSU Payments”). As soon as practicable following the Closing, but in any event no later than fifteen (15) days following the Closing, (i) the Surviving Corporation shall pay or cause to be paid through its or an Affiliate’s payroll system and subject to withholding, if any, as described in Section 2.6 to each holder of one or more Company RSU Award who is a current or former employee of the Company, such holder’s RSU Payment and (ii) the Surviving Corporation shall make, or cause to be made, the payment of the RSU Payment to each holder of one or more Company RSU Awards who is not a current or former employee of the Company.

(d) Termination of Company Equity Plans. As of the Effective Time, all Company Equity Plans shall be terminated and no further Shares, Company Options, Company Restricted Shares, Company RSU Awards, Company Securities or other rights with respect to Shares shall be granted thereunder.

(e) Board Actions. Prior to the Effective Time, the Company Board (or, if appropriate, any committee thereof) shall adopt appropriate resolutions and take all other actions necessary and appropriate (including obtaining any required consents) to effect the transactions described in this Section 2.4.

2.5 Treatment of Warrant. Immediately prior to the Effective Time, the Company Warrant shall (to the extent unexercised at such time) be deemed to be automatically exercised in accordance with the Warrant Agreement and the holder thereof shall receive as consideration for the cancellation of the Company Warrant and the termination of the Warrant Agreement a payment in cash by the Surviving Corporation on the Closing Date, and in any event immediately after the Effective Time, of an amount equal to the product of (a) the total number of Shares underlying the Company Warrant immediately prior to such cancellation and (b) the lesser of (i) the excess, if any, of the Merger Consideration per Share over the exercise price per Share underlying the Company Warrant immediately prior to such cancellation and (ii) $2.55 (the “Warrant Payment”). From and after the Effective Time, the Company Warrant shall no longer be exercisable by the former holder thereof, but shall only entitle such holder to the payment of the Warrant Payment, if any. The Warrant Payment shall constitute the sole consideration payable in respect of the canceled Company Warrant and no additional consideration shall be paid in respect of the canceled Company Warrant.

2.6 Withholding Rights. The Purchaser, the Surviving Corporation and the Paying Agent, as the case may be, shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any amounts otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement, such amounts that the Purchaser, the Surviving Corporation or the Paying Agent is required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under the Code, the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder or any provision of applicable Law. To the extent that amounts are so withheld and timely paid over to the appropriate Governmental Entity by the Purchaser, the Surviving Corporation or the Paying

Agent, such amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made.

ARTICLE 3
REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE COMPANY

Except as set forth in (i) the Company SEC Documents (but excluding any forward-looking disclosures set forth in any risk factor section, any disclosure in any section relating to forward-looking statements or any other disclosures included in any such form, report, schedule, statement or other document to the extent they are predictive or forward-looking in nature); provided, however, the foregoing clause (i) shall not apply to the representations and warranties set forth in Sections 3.1, 3.2, 3.3, 3.4, 3.5, 3.21, 3.23, 3.24, and 3.25, or (ii) the disclosure schedule delivered by the Company to the Parent and the Purchaser concurrent with the execution of this Agreement (the “Company Disclosure Schedule”) (in each case it being understood that any information set forth in one section or subsection of the Company Disclosure Schedule shall be deemed to apply to and qualify the representation and warranty set forth in this Agreement to which it corresponds in number and, whether or not an explicit reference or cross-reference is made, each other representation and warranty set forth in this Article 3 for which it is reasonably apparent on its face that such information is relevant), the Company hereby represents and warrants to the Parent and the Purchaser as follows:

The Company and each Company Subsidiary is duly qualified to do business as a foreign corporation or other entity, and is in good standing (with respect to jurisdictions which recognize such concept) under the Laws of each jurisdiction where the ownership, leasing or operation of its properties or assets or the conduct of its business requires such qualification, except where the failure to be so qualified or in good standing, individually or in the aggregate, has not had and would not reasonably be expected to have a Company Material Adverse Effect.

(b) The Company has made available or caused to be made available to the Purchaser true, complete and correct copies of (i) the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Company, as amended through and in effect as of the date hereof (the “Company Charter”), (ii) the Amended and Restated Bylaws of the Company, as amended through and in effect as of the date hereof (the “Company Bylaws”), and (iii) the certificates of incorporation and bylaws, or equivalent organizational or governing documents, of each Company Subsidiary.

There are no outstanding contractual obligations of the Company or any Company Subsidiary to provide funds to, or make any investment (in the form of a loan, capital contribution or otherwise) in, any Company Subsidiary that is not wholly-owned, directly or indirectly, by the Company (in excess of $250,000) or any other Person, other than guarantees by the Company of any indebtedness or other obligations of any wholly owned Company Subsidiary.

(d) Except as described in Section 3.2(a) and Section 3.2(b) and except for changes since the close of business on the Capitalization Date resulting from the exercise of Company Options or settlement of Company RSU Awards, as of the date of this Agreement, there are no (i) shares of capital stock or other voting securities or equity interests of the Company, (ii) outstanding subscriptions, options, calls, warrants, rights, commitments or agreements to acquire or that obligate the Company or any Company Subsidiary to issue any shares of the capital stock or other equity securities or voting interests of the Company or any Company Subsidiary, (iii) restricted shares, stock appreciation rights, redemption rights, repurchase rights, “phantom” stock rights, performance units, interests in or rights to the ownership or earnings of the Company or any Company Subsidiary or other equity equivalent or equity-based awards or rights or (iv) outstanding securities, instruments or obligations of the Company or any Company Subsidiary that are or may become convertible into or exchangeable for any shares of the capital stock or other equity security or voting interest of the Company or

any Company Subsidiary (the items in clauses (i)–(iv) above, collectively, the “Company Securities”). There are no outstanding obligations of the Company or any Company Subsidiary to repurchase, redeem or otherwise acquire any Company Securities.

(e) Except as set forth on Section 3.2(e) of the Company Disclosure Schedule, none of the Company or any Company Subsidiary is a party to any Contract (i) restricting the transfer of, (ii) relating to the voting rights of, (iii) requiring the repurchase, redemption or disposition of, or containing or granting any right of first refusal with respect to, (iv) requiring the registration for sale of or (v) granting any preemptive or anti-dilutive rights of any kind which obligate the Company or any Company Subsidiary to issue or deliver any Company Securities or other similar rights with respect to any Company Securities.

(f) None of the Company or any Company Subsidiary holds an Equity Interest in any Person other than a Company Subsidiary. Each outstanding share of capital stock or other Equity Interest in each Company Subsidiary is duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid, nonassessable and free of preemptive rights and is owned, beneficially and of record, by the Company or one or more of its wholly owned Company Subsidiaries free and clear of all Liens.

(g) Except for the Company Convertible Notes, there is no outstanding indebtedness of the Company having the right to vote (or convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for securities having the right to vote) on any matters on which Company stockholders may vote.

3.3 Authority.

(a) The Company has all requisite corporate power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement, to perform its obligations hereunder and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby, including the Offer and the Merger. The execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Company and the consummation by the Company of the transactions contemplated hereby, including the Offer and the Merger, have been duly and validly authorized by all requisite corporate action, and no other corporate proceedings on the part of the Company are necessary to authorize this Agreement or to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby or to comply with the provisions of and perform its obligations under this Agreement. This Agreement has been duly and validly executed and delivered by the Company and, assuming due and valid authorization, execution and delivery by the Parent and the Purchaser, constitutes a legally valid and binding obligation of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms (except that (i) such enforcement may be subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar Laws, now or hereafter in effect, affecting creditors’ rights generally and (ii) the remedy of specific performance and injunctive and other forms of equitable relief may be subject to equitable defenses and to the discretion of the court before which any proceeding therefor may be brought).

(b) Pursuant to applicable Law (including the DGCL), the Company Charter and the Company Bylaws, the affirmative vote of the holders of Shares representing a majority of the outstanding Shares constitutes the only vote required of the holders of any class or series of the Company’s capital stock that would be, in the absence of Section 251(h) of the

DGCL, required to adopt this Agreement and approve the transactions contemplated hereby, including the Merger.

3.4 No Conflict. None of the execution, delivery or performance of this Agreement by the Company, the acceptance for payment or payment for Shares pursuant to the Offer, the consummation by the Company of the Merger or any other transaction contemplated by this Agreement or compliance by the Company with any of the provisions of this Agreement will (with or without notice or lapse of time, or both): (a) conflict with, violate, or result in the breach of or constitute a default under any provision of the Company Charter or the Company Bylaws or any equivalent organizational or governing documents of any Company Subsidiary; (b) assuming that all consents, approvals, authorizations and permits described in Section 3.5 have been obtained and all filings and notifications described in Section 3.5 have been made and any waiting periods thereunder have terminated or expired, conflict with, violate, or result in the breach of or constitute a default under any Law applicable to the Company or any Company Subsidiary or any of their respective properties or assets; or (c) require any consent or approval under, violate, conflict with, result in any breach of or any loss of any benefit under, or constitute a change of control or default under (or an event which, with notice or lapse of time or both, would become a default), or result in termination or give to others any right of termination, vesting, amendment, acceleration or cancellation of, or result in the creation of a Lien (other than Permitted Liens) upon any of the respective properties or assets of the Company or any Company Subsidiary pursuant to any Contract or Company Permit to which the Company or any Company Subsidiary is a party or by which they or any of their respective properties or assets may be bound or affected, except, with respect to clauses (b) and (c), for any such conflicts, violations, consents, breaches, losses, changes of control, defaults, other occurrences or Liens which, individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to have a Company Material Adverse Effect.

3.5 Required Filings and Consents. Assuming the accuracy of the representations and warranties of the Parent and the Purchaser in Section 4.4, none of the execution, delivery or performance of this Agreement by the Company, the acceptance for payment or payment for Shares pursuant to the Offer, the consummation by the Company of the Merger or any other transaction contemplated by this Agreement or compliance by the Company with any provision of this Agreement will require (with or without notice or lapse of time, or both) any consent, approval, authorization or permit of, or filing or registration with or notification to, any Governmental Entity, other than (a) the filing of the Certificate of Merger as required by the DGCL, (b) compliance with any applicable requirements of the HSR Act and any Competition Laws as set forth on Section 3.5 of the Company Disclosure Schedule, (c) compliance with the applicable requirements of the Exchange Act, (d) filings with the SEC as may be required by the Company in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, (e) such filings as may be required under the rules and regulations of the NASDAQ Global Market (“NASDAQ”); and (f) where the failure to obtain such consents, approvals, authorizations or permits of, or to make such filings, registrations with or notifications to any Governmental Entity, individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to have a Company Material Adverse Effect.

3.6 Permits; Compliance With Law.

(a) The Company and each Company Subsidiary holds and is in possession of all franchises, grants, authorizations, licenses, permits, certificates, variances, exemptions, easements, waivers, consents, approvals, orders, concessions, registrations and clearances or other authorizations of any Governmental Entity necessary for the Company and each Company Subsidiary to own, lease and operate its properties and assets, and to carry on and operate its businesses in all respects as currently conducted (the “Company Permits”), except where the failure to comply with, to have, or the suspension or cancellation of, or failure to be valid or in full force and effect of, any of the Company Permits, individually or in the aggregate, has not had and would not reasonably be expected to have a Company Material Adverse Effect. Each of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries are, and since January 1, 2014 have been, in material compliance with the terms and requirements of all material Company Permits. Neither the Company nor any of the Company Subsidiaries has received any written or, to the Company’s Knowledge, other notice from any Governmental Entity (and to the Company’s Knowledge, no Governmental Entity has threatened any notice) (i) asserting any material violation of any term or requirement of any material Company Permit held by the Company or any Company Subsidiary, as applicable, (ii) notifying the Company or any Company Subsidiary of the revocation or withdrawal of any material Company Permit held by the Company or such Company Subsidiary or (iii) imposing any condition, modification or amendment on any material Company Permit (other than such condition, modification or amendment that would also be imposed on similarly situated holders of such Company Permit), in each case that has not been cured or waived.

(b) Neither the Company nor any Company Subsidiary is, and since January 1, 2014 none of the Company or any Company Subsidiary has been, in conflict with, default under or violation of any Law applicable to the Company or any Company Subsidiary or by which any property or asset of the Company or any Company Subsidiary is bound or affected, except for any conflicts, defaults or violations that, individually or in the aggregate, have not had and would not reasonably be expected to have a Company Material Adverse Effect. As of the date of this Agreement, no investigation by any Governmental Entity with respect to the Company or any Company Subsidiary is pending, nor, to the Knowledge of the Company, has any Governmental Entity threatened or indicated to the Company an intention to conduct any such investigation.

(c) The Company and each Company Subsidiary (i) are in compliance, and for the past five (5) years have been in compliance, in all material respects with the United States Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977 (the “FCPA”) and any other applicable Anti-corruption Laws; (ii) during the past five (5) years have not received written notice from a Governmental Entity or any other Person of any actual or alleged violation by the Company or any Company Subsidiary of, or any investigation by any Governmental Entity with respect to, the FCPA or any other Anti-corruption Laws and (iii) during the past five (5) years have maintained an FCPA and anti-corruption compliance program that includes, at a minimum, policies and procedures designed to enhance awareness of and compliance by the Company and the Company Subsidiaries with the FCPA and any other applicable Anti-corruption Laws.

(d) None of the Company or any Company Subsidiary has, directly or indirectly through its Representatives or any Person authorized to act on its behalf (including any distributor, agent, sales intermediary or other third party), offered, promised, paid, authorized or given, money or anything of value to any Person in material violation of applicable Law for the purpose of: (i) influencing any act or decision of any Governmental Entity or any political party or party official, or any candidate for political office; (ii) inducing any Governmental Entity or any political party or party official, or any candidate for political office to do or omit to do an act in violation of a lawful duty; (iii) securing any improper advantage; (iv) inducing a Person to improperly perform a relevant function or activity on behalf of a Governmental Entity or to reward a Person for having improperly performed a relevant function or activity on behalf of a Governmental Entity; or (v) inducing any Governmental Entity or any political party or party official, or any candidate for political office to influence the act or decision of a government or government instrumentality, in order to obtain or retain business, or direct business to, any person or entity, in any way.

(e) To the Knowledge of the Company, during the past five (5) years, none of the Company or the Company Subsidiaries has had a customer or supplier or other business relationship with, is a party to any Contract with, or has engaged in any transaction with, any Person (i) that is organized or domiciled in or that is a citizen of Cuba, Iran, North Korea, Sudan, or Syria (including any Governmental Entity within such country) or (ii) that is the subject of any international economic or trade sanction administered or enforced by the Office of Foreign Assets Control of the United States Department of the Treasury (“OFAC”), the United Nations Security Council, the European Union, Her Majesty’s Treasury, the United Kingdom Export Control Organization or other relevant sanctions authority (including but not limited to being listed on the Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons List administered by OFAC).

3.7 SEC Filings; Financial Statements.

(a) Since January 1, 2014, the Company has filed or otherwise furnished (as applicable) all registration statements, prospectuses, forms, reports, proxy statements, schedules, statements and documents required to be filed or furnished by it under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, as the case may be, together with all certifications required pursuant to the Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx Act of 2002 (the “Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx Act”) (such documents and any other documents filed by the Company with the SEC since such date, as have been supplemented, modified or amended since the time of filing, collectively, the “Company SEC Documents”). As of their respective filing dates or, if supplemented, modified or amended prior to the date hereof, as of the date of the most recent supplement, modification or amendment, the Company SEC Documents (i) did not (or, with respect to Company SEC Documents filed after the date hereof, will not) contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements made therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading and (ii) complied in all material respects with the applicable requirements of the Exchange Act or the Securities Act, as the case may be, the Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx Act and the applicable rules and regulations of the SEC promulgated thereunder and the listing and corporate governance rules and regulations of NASDAQ. None of the Company Subsidiaries is required to, nor does it, file any forms, reports or other documents with the SEC. The audited consolidated financial

ARTICLE 4
REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE PARENT AND THE PURCHASER

Except as set forth in the disclosure schedule delivered by the Parent and the Purchaser to the Company concurrent with the execution of this Agreement (the “Parent Disclosure Schedule”) (it being understood that any information set forth in one section or subsection of the Parent Disclosure Schedule shall be deemed to apply to and qualify the representation and warranty set forth in this Agreement to which it corresponds in number and, whether or not an explicit reference or cross-reference is made, each other representation and warranty set forth in this Article 4 for which it is reasonably apparent on its face that such information is relevant), the Parent and the Purchaser hereby represent and warrant to the Company as follows:

Each of the Parent and the Purchaser is a corporation duly formed, validly existing and in good standing under the Laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation or organization and has all requisite power and authority to own, lease and operate its properties and assets and to conduct its business as it is currently being conducted. Each of the Parent and the Purchaser is duly qualified to do business as a foreign corporation, and is in good standing in under the Laws of the jurisdiction (with respect to jurisdictions which

recognize such concept) where the ownership, leasing or operation of its properties or assets or the conduct of its business requires such qualification, except where the failure to be so qualified or in good standing, individually or in the aggregate, has not had and would not reasonably be expected to have a Parent Material Adverse Effect.

4.2 Authority. Each of the Parent and the Purchaser has all requisite power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement, to perform its obligations hereunder and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby, including the Offer and the Merger. The execution and delivery of this Agreement by each of the Parent and the Purchaser, as applicable, and the consummation by the Parent and the Purchaser of the transactions contemplated hereby, including the Offer and the Merger, have been duly and validly authorized by all requisite corporate action and, subject to the adoption of this Agreement by the Parent, as sole stockholder of the Purchaser, no other corporate proceedings on the part of the Parent or the Purchaser are necessary to authorize this Agreement or to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby. This Agreement has been duly and validly executed and delivered by the Parent and the Purchaser, and assuming due and valid authorization, execution and delivery by the Company, constitutes a legally valid and binding obligation of the Parent and the Purchaser, enforceable against the Parent and the Purchaser in accordance with its terms (except as such enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer, reorganization, moratorium and other similar Laws of general applicability relating to or affecting creditors’ rights, and to general equitable principles, including specific performance and injunctive and other forms of equitable relief).

4.3 No Conflict. None of the execution, delivery or performance of this Agreement by the Parent or the Purchaser, the making of the Offer, the acceptance for payment or payment for Shares pursuant to the Offer, the consummation by the Parent or the Purchaser of the Merger or any other transaction contemplated by this Agreement, or compliance by the Parent or the Purchaser with any of the provisions of this Agreement will (with or without notice or lapse of time, or both): (a) conflict with or violate any provision of the certificate of incorporation, bylaws or similar organizational documents of the Parent or the Purchaser; (b) assuming that all consents, approvals, authorizations and permits described in Section 4.4 have been obtained and all filings and notifications described in Section 4.4 have been made and any waiting periods thereunder have terminated or expired, conflict with or violate any Law applicable to the Parent or the Purchaser or any other Subsidiary of the Parent (each a “Parent Subsidiary” and, collectively, the “Parent Subsidiaries”) or any of their respective properties or assets; or (c) require any consent or approval under, violate, conflict with, result in any breach of or any loss of any benefit under, or constitute a default under, or result in termination or give to others any right of termination, vesting, amendment, acceleration or cancellation of, or result in the creation of a Lien (other than Permitted Liens) upon any of the respective properties or assets of the Parent, the Purchaser or any Parent Subsidiary pursuant to, any Contract, permit or other instrument or obligation to which the Parent, the Purchaser or any Parent Subsidiary is a party or by which they or any of their respective properties or assets may be bound or affected, except, with respect to clauses (b) and (c), for any such conflicts, violations, consents, breaches, losses, defaults, other occurrences or Liens which, individually or in the aggregate, have not had and would not reasonably be expected to have a Parent Material Adverse Effect.

4.4 Required Filings and Consents. Assuming the accuracy of the representations and warranties of the Company in Section 3.5, none of the execution, delivery or performance of this Agreement by the Parent and the Purchaser, the acceptance for payment or payment for Shares pursuant to the Offer, the consummation by the Parent and the Purchaser of the Merger or any other transaction contemplated by this Agreement, or compliance by the Parent or the Purchaser with any of the provisions of this Agreement will require (with or without notice or lapse of time, or both) any consent, approval, authorization or permit of, or filing or registration with or notification to, any Governmental Entity, other than (a) the filing of the Certificate of Merger as required by the DGCL, (b) compliance with the applicable requirements of the Competition Laws set forth on Section 4.4 of the Parent Disclosure Schedule, (c) filings with the SEC of such reports under, such other compliance with, the Exchange Act or the Securities Act, and the rules and regulations of the SEC promulgated thereunder, as may be required by the Parent or the Purchaser in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby and (d) where the failure to obtain such consents, approvals, authorizations or permits of, or to make such filings, registrations with or notifications to any Governmental Entity or any other Person, individually or in the aggregate, has not has and would not reasonably be expected to have a Parent Material Adverse Effect.

4.5 Litigation. As of the date hereof, there is no Proceeding pending or, to the Knowledge of the Parent, threatened against the Parent or the Purchaser or any of their respective affiliates, officers, directors or managers (in their capacity as such), or any of their respective properties or assets that, individually or in the aggregate, has had or would reasonably be expected to have a Parent Material Adverse Effect, and neither the Parent nor the Purchaser is subject to any Order that, individually or in the aggregate, has had or would reasonably be expected to have a Parent Material Adverse Effect or that challenges the validity or propriety of the Offer or the Merger.

4.6 Information in the Offer Documents and the Schedule 14D-9. The information supplied by or on behalf of the Parent and the Purchaser for inclusion in, or incorporation by reference into, the Schedule 14D-9 and any Other Filing filed with the SEC by the Company (and any amendment thereof or supplement thereto) will not, when filed with the SEC, when distributed or disseminated to the Company’s stockholders or at the Expiration Date, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements made therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

Neither the Parent nor the Purchaser is, nor at any time during the last three years has it been, an “interested stockholder” of the Company as defined in Section 203 of the DGCL (other than as contemplated by this Agreement).

4.8 Sufficient Funds. The Parent and the Purchaser have as of the date of this Agreement, and will have at the Acceptance Time and at the Closing, sufficient cash, available lines of credit or other sources of immediately available funds to effect payment of the aggregate Offer Price for all Shares validly tendered in the Offer, the aggregate Merger Consideration, and all other cash amounts payable pursuant to this Agreement.

4.9 Ownership of the Purchaser. All of the outstanding Equity Interests of the Purchaser have been duly authorized and validly issued and are wholly owned, directly or indirectly, by the Parent.

Each of the Parent and the Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, the Company and the Company Subsidiaries, and their respective affiliates, stockholders, controlling persons or Company Representatives shall not have any liability or responsibility whatsoever to the Parent, the Purchaser, any Parent Subsidiary, or their respective affiliates, stockholders, controlling persons or Parent

analysis and review of information by joint integration teams in coordination with counsel and the Company) will provide the Parent with timely access to the fullest extent possible to the substance of the information described in this Section 5.2(a).

(b) Each of the Parent and the Purchaser agrees that it will not, and will cause its Representatives not to, prior to the Effective Time, use any information obtained pursuant to this Section 5.2 for any competitive or other purpose unrelated to the consummation of the Transactions. The Confidentiality Agreement, dated February 19, 2016, by and between the Parent and the Company (the “Confidentiality Agreement”), shall apply with respect to information furnished under this Section 5.2 by the Company, the Company Subsidiaries and their Representatives.

5.3 No Solicitation.

(a) Subject to Section 5.3(b), from and after the date hereof until the Acceptance Time or, if earlier, the termination of this Agreement in accordance with Article 7, the Company shall not, and shall cause the Company Subsidiaries not to, and shall instruct the Company Representatives not to on behalf of the Company: (i) initiate, solicit or knowingly encourage or knowingly induce the submission of any Acquisition Proposal or engage in any discussions or negotiations or furnish or disclose any nonpublic information with respect thereto, or knowingly take any other action designed and intended to facilitate, any inquiries or the making of any proposal which constitutes, or could reasonably be expected to lead to, any Acquisition Proposal (other than informing any Third Party of the existence of the provisions contained in this Section 5.3 and provided, that, the Company may ascertain facts from any Third Party making an Acquisition Proposal for the purpose of the Company Board informing itself about such Acquisition Proposal and the Third Party making it) or (ii) terminate, amend, modify or waive any provision of any confidentiality, standstill or similar agreement to which the Company or any Company Subsidiary is a party and which would otherwise prohibit, delay or impair the ability of any Person to make an Acquisition Proposal (each a “Restrictive Agreement”). The Company shall, and shall cause the Company Subsidiaries to, and shall instruct the Company Representatives to on behalf of the Company, immediately cease and terminate any discussion or negotiation with any Third Party conducted prior to the date hereof by the Company, the Company Subsidiaries or any of the Company Representatives on behalf of the Company with respect to any Acquisition Proposal, or any proposal that could reasonably be expected to lead to an Acquisition Proposal, and shall request to have returned promptly to the Company any confidential information that has been provided in any such discussions or negotiations to the extent contemplated by any confidentiality agreement with such Third Party. The Company represents and warrants to Parent that neither it nor any of the Company Subsidiaries has granted any waiver or release under any standstill or similar agreement with respect to any class of equity securities of the Company or any Company Subsidiary.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 5.3(a), if at any time following the date hereof and prior to the Acceptance Time (i) the Company has received a bona fide written Acquisition Proposal from a Third Party, (ii) such Acquisition Proposal did not result from a breach of this Section 5.3 and (iii) the Company Board determines in good faith, after consultation with its financial advisors and outside counsel, based on information then available, that such Acquisition Proposal constitutes or could reasonably be expected to lead to a Superior Proposal and that, after consultation with outside counsel, failing to take such action would reasonably be expected to be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties to the Company’s stockholders under applicable Law, then the Company may (A) furnish information with respect to the Company and the Company Subsidiaries to the Third Party making such Acquisition Proposal, its Representatives and potential sources of financing, (B) participate in discussions or negotiations with the Third Party making such Acquisition Proposal regarding such Acquisition Proposal and (C) terminate, amend, modify or waive any provision of any Restrictive Agreement; provided that the Company (x) will not, and will cause the Company Subsidiaries not to, and will instruct the Company Representatives not to on behalf of the Company, disclose any nonpublic information to such Third Party without first entering into an Acceptable Confidentiality Agreement with such Third Party and (y) will provide to the Parent, as promptly as practicable (and in any event within 24 hours), any material nonpublic information concerning the Company or the Company Subsidiaries provided or made available to such other Person which was not previously provided or made available to the Parent.

(c) From and after the date of this Agreement, the Company shall promptly (and in any event within twenty-four (24) hours) notify the Parent after receipt by the Company of any Acquisition Proposal or any inquiry that could reasonably be expected to lead to an Acquisition Proposal. The Company shall provide such notice in writing and shall identify the Third Party making, and the material terms and conditions of, any such Acquisition Proposal or inquiry. The Company shall keep the Parent reasonably informed of the status of any such Acquisition Proposal or inquiry and shall promptly (and in any event within twenty-four (24) hours) provide to the Parent a copy of such Acquisition Proposal (or, where no such copy is available, a reasonable description of such Acquisition Proposal) and copies of all material written correspondence and written materials sent or provided to the Company or any Company Subsidiary that describes any material terms or conditions of any Acquisition Proposal (as well as written summaries of any oral communications addressing the material terms and conditions of such Acquisition Proposal).

(d) Except as set forth in Sections 5.3(e) and 5.3(f), neither the Company Board nor any committee thereof shall, nor shall the Company Board or any committee thereof authorize the Company to, (i) withdraw or withhold, amend, modify or qualify in any manner adverse to the Parent or the Purchaser the Company Board Recommendation or publicly propose to do any of the foregoing, (ii) approve, adopt, or recommend any Acquisition Proposal or any inquiry or proposal that would reasonably be expected to lead to an Acquisition Proposal, (iii) following the date any Acquisition Proposal or any material modification thereto is first made public, sent or given to the stockholders of the Company, fail to issue a press release that expressly reaffirms the Company Board Recommendation within ten (10) Business Days following the Parent’s written request to do so, (iv) fail to include the Company Board Recommendation in the Schedule 14D-9, or (v) except as expressly permitted by this Agreement, cause or permit the Company to enter into any contract, letter of intent, memorandum of

understanding, or agreement in principle regarding or providing for any Acquisition Proposal (other than an Acceptable Confidentiality Agreement) or requiring the Company to abandon, terminate, materially delay or fail to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (any action described in clause (i), (ii), (iii), (iv) or (v), whether taken by the Company Board or any committee thereof, or by the Company with the authorization of the Company Board or any committee thereof, being referred to as a “Change of Board Recommendation”).

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 5.3, if, at any time prior to the Acceptance Date, the Company has received a bona fide written Acquisition Proposal that does not result from a breach of this Section 5.3, and the Company Board determines, after consultation with its financial advisors and outside counsel, that the Acquisition Proposal constitutes a Superior Proposal and that failing to take action would reasonably be expected to be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties to the Company’s stockholders under applicable Law, the Company Board may at any time prior to the Acceptance Time, (i) effect a Change of Board Recommendation with respect to such Superior Proposal and/or (ii) terminate this Agreement to enter into a definitive agreement with respect to such Superior Proposal, subject to the requirements of this Section 5.3(e) and Section 7.2. The Company shall not be entitled to effect a Change of Board Recommendation pursuant to this Section 5.3(e) or terminate this Agreement to enter into a definitive agreement with respect to such Superior Proposal pursuant to this Section 5.3(e) and Section 7.1(e) unless the Company shall have provided to the Parent at least four (4) Business Days’ prior written notice (the “Notice Period”) of the Company’s intention to take such action, which notice shall specify the material terms and conditions of such Acquisition Proposal, and shall have provided to the Parent a copy of the available proposed transaction agreement to be entered into in respect of such Acquisition Proposal in each case, to the extent not previously specified or provided to the Parent, and:

(i) during the Notice Period, if requested by the Parent, the Company shall have, and shall have caused its legal and financial advisors to have, engaged in good faith negotiations with the Parent regarding any amendment to this Agreement proposed in writing by the Parent and intended to cause the relevant proposal to no longer constitute a Superior Proposal; and

(ii) the Company Board shall have considered any adjustments and/or proposed amendments to this Agreement (including a change to the price terms hereof) and the other agreements contemplated hereby that may be proposed in writing by the Parent (the “Proposed Changed Terms”) no later than 11:59 a.m., New York City time, on the last day of the Notice Period and shall have determined in good faith that the Superior Proposal would continue to constitute a Superior Proposal if such Proposed Changed Terms were to be given effect.

In the event of any material revisions to such Superior Proposal offered in writing by the party making such Superior Proposal, the Company shall be required to deliver a new written notice to the Parent and to again comply with the requirements of this Section 5.3(e) with respect to such new written notice, except that the Notice Period shall be two (2) Business Days with respect to any such revised Superior Proposal, but no such new written notice shall shorten the original Notice Period.

(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 5.3, the Company Board may at any time prior to the Acceptance Time effect a Change of Board Recommendation if (i) the Company Board determines that an Intervening Event has occurred and is continuing and (ii) the Company Board determines in good faith, after consultation with outside counsel, that the failure to effect a Change of Board Recommendation in response to such Intervening Event would reasonably be expected to be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties to the stockholders of the Company under applicable Law; provided that (x) the Company Board has provided to the Parent at least four (4) Business Days’ prior written notice of its intention to take such action, which notice shall specify in reasonable detail the circumstances related to such determination, (y) during such four (4) Business Day period, if requested by the Parent, the Company shall have, and shall have caused its legal and financial advisors to have, engaged in good faith negotiations with the Parent regarding any Proposed Changed Terms proposed in writing by the Parent, such that the failure to make a Change of Board Recommendation would not reasonably be expected to be inconsistent with the Company’s fiduciary duties to its stockholders under applicable Law and (z) the Company Board shall have considered the Proposed Changed Terms no later than 11:59 a.m., New York City time, on the last day of such four (4) Business Day period and shall have determined in good faith that the failure to make a Change of Board Recommendation would reasonably be expected to be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties to the stockholders of the Company under applicable law if such Proposed Changed Terms were given effect.

(g) Nothing contained in this Section 5.3 shall prohibit the Company Board from (i) disclosing to the stockholders of the Company a position contemplated by Rule 14e-2(a), Rule 14d-9 and Item 1012(a) of Regulation M-A promulgated under the Exchange Act; or (ii) making any disclosure to the stockholders of the Company if the Company Board determines in good faith, after consultation with outside counsel, that the failure to make such disclosure would reasonably be expected to be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties to the Company’s stockholders under applicable Law. The issuance by the Company or the Company Board of a “stop, look and listen” statement pending disclosure of its position, as contemplated by Rules 14d-9 and 14e-2(a) promulgated under the Exchange Act, shall not constitute a Change of Board Recommendation.

5.4 Appropriate Action; Consents; Filings.

(a) Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, the Company, the Parent and the Purchaser shall use (and cause their respective Subsidiaries to use) their best efforts to (i) take, or cause to be taken, all appropriate action and do, or cause to be done, and to assist and cooperate with the parties in doing, all things necessary, proper or advisable under applicable Law or otherwise to consummate and make effective the Offer, the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement as promptly as practicable, (ii) take such actions as may be required to cause the expiration of the notice periods under Competition Laws with respect to such transactions as promptly as practicable after the execution of this Agreement, (iii) obtain, and maintain, from any Governmental Entities any consents, licenses, permits, waivers, approvals, authorizations or orders necessary or required to be obtained by the Parent, the Purchaser or the Company, or any of their respective Subsidiaries in order to effect the Closing as promptly as practicable (and in any event, by no later than the Extended Outside Date), and to take all reasonable or necessary actions to avoid any action or

proceeding by any Governmental Entity (including those in connection with Competition Laws), in connection with the authorization, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, including the Offer and the Merger, (iv) cause the satisfaction of all conditions set forth in Annex I and Article 6, (v) vigorously defend all lawsuits or other legal, regulatory or other proceedings or Orders to which it is a party or otherwise challenging or affecting this Agreement or the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including seeking to have any stay, injunction or temporary restraining order entered by any court or other Governmental Entity vacated or reversed prior to the Extended Outside Date, (vi) as promptly as practicable, make or cause to be made all necessary applications and filings (and in any event file all required HSR Act notifications no later than July 11, 2016 and request early termination of the HSR waiting period thereunder), and thereafter make any other required submissions, and pay any fees due in connection therewith (all such fees to be solely the responsibility of, and to be paid by, the Parent and the Purchaser), with respect to this Agreement, the Offer and the Merger required under any Competition Laws, and (vii) as promptly as reasonably practicable after the date hereof, make all necessary filings, and thereafter make any other required submissions, and pay any fees due in connection therewith, with respect to this Agreement, the Offer and the Merger required under any Competition Laws and any other applicable Law. The Company, the Parent and the Purchaser shall cooperate with each other in all respects in connection with (x) preparing and filing the Offer Documents, the Schedule 14D-9 and any Other Filings, (y) determining whether any action by or in respect of, or filing with, any Governmental Entity is required, in connection with the consummation of the Offer or the Merger and (z) seeking any such actions, consents, approvals or waivers or making any such filings. The Company and the Parent shall furnish to each other all information required for any application or other filing under the rules and regulations of any applicable Law in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. No party to this Agreement shall consent to any voluntary extension of the Offer or delay of the Closing at the behest of any Governmental Entity without the consent of the other parties to this Agreement, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned. From the date of this Agreement until the Effective Date unless terminated prior to such time, neither the Parent nor the Purchaser shall, directly or indirectly through one or more of their respective affiliates, unless consented to in writing by the Company, take any action, including acquiring or making any investment in any corporation, partnership, limited liability company or other business organization or any division or assets thereof, that would reasonably be expected to cause a material delay in the satisfaction of the conditions contained in Annex I or Article 6 or the consummation of the Offer or the Merger, it being understood that Parent’s pursuit of the investments described in Section 5.4(a) of the Parent Disclosure Schedule shall not be deemed to be an action that would reasonably be expected to have such effect. Without limiting this Section 5.4(a), the Parent agrees to take, or cause to be taken, any and all steps and to make, or cause to be made, any and all undertakings necessary to avoid or eliminate each and every impediment under any antitrust, merger control, competition, or trade regulation Law that may be asserted by any Governmental Entity with respect to the Offer or the Merger so as to enable the Acceptance Time and the Closing, respectively, to occur as promptly as practicable (and in any event, no later than the Extended Outside Date), including (A) proposing, negotiating, committing to, and effecting, by consent decree, hold separate order, or otherwise, the sale, divestiture, licensing or disposition of any assets, properties or businesses of the Parent or the Company or any of their respective Subsidiaries or (B) accepting any operational restrictions or

otherwise taking or committing to take actions that limit the Parent’s or any Parent Subsidiary’s freedom of action with respect to, or its ability to retain, any of the assets, properties, licenses, rights, product lines, operations or businesses of the Parent, the Company or any of their respective Subsidiaries in each case, as may be required in order to avoid the entry of, or to effect the lifting or dissolution of, any injunction, temporary restraining order, or other order in any suit or proceeding, which would otherwise have the effect of preventing or delaying the Acceptance Time or the Closing, as applicable; provided, however, that nothing in this sentence shall require the Parent to take any step or make any undertaking the effect of which would be to materially diminish the value of the business of the Parent and its Subsidiaries (including the Company and its Subsidiaries), taken as a whole. In addition, the Parent shall use its best efforts to defend through litigation on the merits any claim asserted in court by any party in order to avoid entry of, or to have vacated or terminated, any Order (whether temporary, preliminary or permanent) that would prevent the Closing from occurring as promptly as practicable (and in any event, no later than the Extended Outside Date).

(b) The Company and the Parent shall give (or shall cause their respective Subsidiaries to give) any notices to Third Parties, and use, and cause their respective Subsidiaries to use, commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the Third Party consents, approvals or waivers identified on Schedule 5.4(b) and the Company and the Purchaser shall coordinate and cooperate in seeking any such consents, approvals or waivers.

(c) Without limiting the generality of anything contained in this Section 5.4, each party hereto shall: (i) give the other parties prompt notice of the making or commencement of any request, inquiry, investigation, action or Proceeding by or before any Governmental Entity with respect to the Offer or the Merger or any of the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement; (ii) keep the other parties informed as to the status of any such request, inquiry, investigation, action or Proceeding; and (iii) promptly inform the other parties of any communication to or from any Governmental Entity regarding the Offer or the Merger or any of the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement. 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 Offer or 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 Law, in connection with any such request, inquiry, investigation, action 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, action 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, action or Proceeding. Nothing in this Section 5.4 will apply to or restrict communications or other actions by the Company, the Parent or the Purchaser and their respective affiliates with or with respect to any Governmental Entity in connection with their business in the ordinary course of business.

(d) Nothing contained in this Agreement shall give the Parent or the Purchaser, directly or indirectly, the right to control or direct the operations of the Company prior to the consummation of the Merger. Prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall

exercise, consistent with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, complete unilateral control and supervision over its business operations.

5.5 Certain Notices. From and after the date of this Agreement until the earlier of the Effective Time or the termination of this Agreement in accordance with Article 7, unless prohibited by applicable Law, each party hereto shall promptly notify the other parties hereto if any of the following occur after the date of this Agreement: (a) receipt of any notice or other communication in writing from any Governmental Entity or Person alleging that the consent or approval of such Person is or may be required in connection with the Offer, Merger or any of the transactions hereunder; (b) receipt of any notice or other communication from any Governmental Entity or NASDAQ (or any other securities market) in connection with the transactions hereunder; or (c) upon such party becoming aware of the occurrence of an event that could prevent or delay beyond the Outside Date the consummation of the transactions hereunder or that would reasonably be expected to result in any of the conditions to the Merger set forth in Article 6 or Annex I not being satisfied; provided, however, that the delivery of any notice pursuant to this Section 5.5 shall not cure any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement or otherwise limit or affect the remedies available hereunder to the party receiving such notice; provided, further, that any failure to make such notice (in and of itself) shall not be taken into account in determining whether the conditions set forth in Annex I have been satisfied or give rise to any right of termination set forth in Article 7.

5.6 Public Announcements. So long as this Agreement is in effect, the Parent and the Purchaser, on the one hand, and the Company, on the other, shall not issue any press release or make any public statement with respect to the Offer, the Merger or this Agreement without the prior written consent of the other party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), except (a) as may be required by applicable Law or the rules or regulations of any applicable United States securities exchange or regulatory or governmental body to which the relevant party is subject, in which case the party required to make the release or announcement shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to allow each other party reasonable time to comment on such release or announcement in advance of such issuance, or (b) with respect to any press release or other public statement by the Company permitted by Section 5.3. The press release announcing the execution and delivery of this Agreement shall be a joint release of, and shall not be issued prior to the approval of each of, the Company and the Parent. The Company shall (i) file a current report on Form 8-K with the SEC attaching its press release and copy of this Agreement as exhibits and (ii) file a pre-commencement communication on Schedule 14D-9 with the SEC attaching its press release. The Parent and the Purchaser shall file a pre-commencement communication on Schedule TO with the SEC attaching the press release.

5.7 Employee Benefit Matters.

(a) From and after the Effective Time and for a period ending one year following the Effective Time, the Parent shall either (i) assume and maintain, or cause the Parent Subsidiaries, including the Surviving Corporation, to assume and maintain, for the benefit of the employees of the Company and Company Subsidiaries immediately prior to the Acceptance Time (each a “Continuing Employee”), the Benefit Plans (other than the Company Equity Plans) at the benefit levels in effect on the date of this Agreement and provide or cause the Parent Subsidiaries, including the Surviving Corporation, to provide compensation and benefits (other

than equity compensation) to each Continuing Employee under the Company Benefit Plans or other employee benefit plans or compensation arrangements of the Parent or any of the Parent Subsidiaries that have a target value that is reasonably comparable in the aggregate to the target value of the compensation and benefits provided to such Continuing Employee under the Benefit Plans immediately prior to the Acceptance Time (other than equity compensation); or (ii) (A) provide or cause the Parent Subsidiaries, including the Surviving Corporation, to provide compensation (other than equity compensation) to each Continuing Employee that, taken as a whole, has a target value that is reasonably comparable in the aggregate to the target value of the compensation (other than equity compensation) provided to such Continuing Employee immediately prior to the Acceptance Time and (B) provide or cause the Parent Subsidiaries, including the Surviving Corporation, to provide benefits to each Continuing Employee that, taken as a whole, have a value that is reasonably comparable in the aggregate to the benefits provided to such Continuing Employee immediately prior to the Acceptance Time.

(b) Without limiting the generality of Section 5.7(a), from and after the Effective Time, the Parent shall, or shall cause the Parent Subsidiaries, including the Surviving Corporation, to, assume, honor and continue during the one-year period following the Effective Time or, if sooner, until all obligations thereunder have been satisfied, all of the Company’s employment, severance, retention and termination plans, policies, programs, agreements and arrangements (including any change in control or severance agreement between the Company and any Continuing Employee), in each case, as in effect at the Effective Time, including with respect to any payments, benefits or rights arising as a result of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (either alone or in combination with any other event), without any amendment or modification, other than any amendment or modification required to comply with applicable Law or as consented to by the parties thereto.

(c) Without limiting the generality of Section 5.7(a), the Surviving Corporation shall allow the Company’s senior management team to reasonably determine the level of payments to Continuing Employees pursuant to the Company’s incentive plans, as described on Section 5.7(c) of the Company Disclosure Schedule, with respect to the annual performance period in which the Effective Time occurs; provided that the Company’s senior management team shall consult with and obtain the consent of Parent prior to making any final determination of the level of payment under such plans.

(d) With respect to benefit plans maintained by the Parent or any of the Parent Subsidiaries, including the Surviving Corporation, that are offered to the Continuing Employees for purposes of determining eligibility to participate and vesting (but not level of benefits, benefit accruals or early retirement subsidies), each Continuing Employee’s service with the Company or any Company Subsidiary, as reflected in the Company’s records, shall be treated as service with the Parent or any of the Parent Subsidiaries, including the Surviving Corporation to the same extent such service was recognized under the Company’s comparable Benefit Plan; provided, however, that such service need not be recognized to the extent that such recognition would result in any duplication of benefits.

(e) The Parent shall, or shall cause the Parent Subsidiaries (including the Surviving Corporation) to, waive, or cause to be waived, any pre-existing condition limitations, exclusions, evidence of insurability, actively-at-work requirements and waiting

periods under any medical benefit plan maintained by the Parent or any of the Parent Subsidiaries in which Continuing Employees (and their eligible dependents) will be eligible to participate from and after the Effective Time, except to the extent that such pre-existing condition limitations, exclusions, actively-at-work requirements and waiting periods would not have been satisfied or waived under the comparable Benefit Plan immediately prior to the Effective Time. The Parent shall, or shall cause the Parent Subsidiaries, including the Surviving Corporation, to recognize, or cause to be recognized, the dollar amount of all co-payments, deductibles and similar expenses incurred by each Continuing Employee (and his or her eligible dependents) during the calendar year in which the Effective Time occurs for purposes of satisfying such year’s deductible and co-payment limitations under the relevant welfare benefit plans in which such Continuing Employee (and dependents) will be eligible to participate from and after the Effective Time.

(f) Any vacation or paid time off accrued but unused by a Continuing Employee as of immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be credited to such Continuing Employee following the Effective Time, and shall not be subject to accrual limits or other forfeiture.

(g) Notwithstanding anything provided in this Section 5.7, each employee of the Company or any Company Subsidiary who, as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, is covered by a collective bargaining or similar labor-related agreement shall be provided with compensation and benefits consistent with the terms of the applicable agreement in effect.

(h) Nothing contained herein, expressed or implied, is intended to confer upon any Continuing Employee any benefits under any benefit plans, programs, policies or other arrangements, including severance benefits or right to employment or continued employment by reason of this Agreement. In addition, the provisions of this Agreement are for the sole benefit of the parties to this Agreement and are not for the benefit of any third party.

5.8 Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

(a) For a period beginning at the Effective Time and ending six (6) years after the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation and the Parent shall (i) indemnify and hold harmless all past and present directors, officers and employees of the Company or any Company Subsidiary (collectively, the “Covered Persons”) to the same extent such Covered Persons are indemnified as of the date of this Agreement by the Company pursuant to the Company Charter, the Company Bylaws, the certificate of incorporation and bylaws, or equivalent organizational or governing documents, of any Company Subsidiary, as applicable, and indemnification agreements, if any, in existence on the date of this Agreement with any directors, officers and employees of the Company or any Company Subsidiary arising out of acts or omissions in their capacity as directors, officers or employees of the Company or any Company Subsidiary occurring at or prior to the Effective Time, including in connection with this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and (ii) advance expenses (including reasonable legal fees and expenses) incurred in the defense of any Proceeding or investigation with respect to the matters subject to indemnification pursuant to this Section 5.8(a) in accordance with the procedures set forth in the Company Charter, the Company Bylaws, the

certificate of incorporation and bylaws, or equivalent organizational documents, of any Company Subsidiary, as applicable, and indemnification agreements, if any, in existence on the date of this Agreement; provided, however, that the Covered Person to whom expenses are advanced shall undertake to repay such advanced expenses to the Parent and the Surviving Corporation, if it is ultimately determined by a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction that such Covered Person is not entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Section 5.8(a). Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if any claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation (whether arising before, at or after the Effective Time) is made against such Covered Person with respect to matters subject to indemnification hereunder on or prior to the sixth anniversary of the Effective Time, the provisions of this Section 5.8(a) shall continue in effect until the final disposition of such claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation.

(b) For not less than six (6) years from and after the Effective Time, the certificate of incorporation and bylaws of the Surviving Corporation shall contain provisions no less favorable with respect to exculpation, indemnification of and advancement of expenses to Covered Persons for periods at or prior to the Effective Time than are currently set forth in the Company Charter and the Company Bylaws. Following the Effective Time, the indemnification agreements, if any, in existence on the date of this Agreement with any Covered Person shall be assumed by the Surviving Corporation, without any further action, and shall continue in full force and effect in accordance with their terms.

(c) For not less than six (6) years from and after the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation shall, and the Parent shall 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 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 (true and complete copies which have been previously made available to the Purchaser) or, if substantially equivalent insurance coverage is unavailable, the best available coverage; except, that the Surviving Corporation shall not be required to pay an annual premium for the D&O Insurance in excess of 300% of the last annual premium paid by the Company prior to the date of this Agreement, but in such case shall purchase as much coverage as is available for such amount. The provisions of the immediately preceding sentence shall be deemed to have been satisfied if prepaid policies have been obtained prior to the Effective Time, which policies provide such directors and officers with coverage for an aggregate period of at least six (6) years with respect to claims arising from facts or events that occurred on or before the Effective Time, including in respect of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. If such prepaid policies have been obtained prior to the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation shall, and the Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, maintain such policies in full force and effect, and continue to honor the obligations thereunder.

(d) In the event the Parent or the Surviving Corporation (i) consolidates with or merges into any other Person and shall 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 shall be made so that such continuing or surviving corporation or entity or transferee of such assets, as the case may be, shall assume the obligations set forth in this Section 5.8.

(e) The obligations under this Section 5.8 shall not be terminated or modified in any manner that is adverse to the Covered Persons (and their respective successors and assigns) to whom this Section 5.8 applies (i) unless such termination or modification is required by applicable Law or (ii) without the consent of such affected Covered Person (or their respective successors and assigns) (it being expressly agreed that the Covered Persons (including successors and assigns) shall be Third Party beneficiaries of this Section 5.8). In the event of any breach by the Surviving Corporation or the Parent of this Section 5.8, the Surviving Corporation shall pay all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses, including attorneys’ fees, that may be incurred by Covered Persons in enforcing the indemnity and other obligations provided in this Section 5.8 as such fees are incurred upon the written request of such Covered Person.

5.9 Parent Agreements Concerning the Purchaser. The Parent hereby guarantees the due, prompt and faithful payment, performance and discharge by the Purchaser of, and the compliance by the Purchaser with, all of the covenants, agreements, obligations and undertakings of the Purchaser under this Agreement in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, and covenants and agrees to take all actions necessary or advisable to ensure such payment, performance and discharge by the Purchaser hereunder. The Parent shall, immediately following execution of this Agreement, approve and adopt this Agreement in its capacity as sole stockholder of the Purchaser and deliver to the Company evidence of its vote or action by written consent approving and adopting this Agreement in accordance with applicable Law and the certificate of incorporation and bylaws of the Purchaser.

5.10 Takeover Statutes. If any state takeover Law or state Law that purports to limit or restrict business combinations or the ability to acquire or vote Shares (including any “business combination” or other similar takeover Law) becomes or is deemed to be applicable to the Company, the Parent or the Purchaser, the Offer, the Merger or any other transaction contemplated by this Agreement, then the Company and the Company Board shall take all action reasonably available to it to render such Law inapplicable to the foregoing.

5.11 Section 16 Matters. Prior to the Effective Time, the Company Board, or an appropriate committee of non-employee directors thereof, shall 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 and the rules and regulations thereunder (“Section 16”) of Shares, Company Options or Company RSU Awards pursuant to this Agreement, the Offer and the Merger shall be an exempt transaction for purposes of Section 16.

5.12 Company Indebtedness. Prior to the Acceptance Time, the Company shall take all such actions as are necessary and appropriate to obtain at the Acceptance Time pay-off letters in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Parent evidencing the amount (the “Pay-off Amount”) necessary to pay-off, at the Acceptance Time, all existing indebtedness and other obligations (including outstanding letters of credit and any costs, fees, expenses, premiums, prepayment penalties, breakage fees or other exit fees payable in connection with the pay-off of the existing indebtedness and other obligations) under (a) the Loan and Security Agreement, dated as of April 30, 2015, by and among the Company, certain Company Subsidiaries, Hercules Technology Growth Capital, Inc., as administrative agent, and the lenders party thereto from

time to time, as amended (the “Credit Agreement”) and (b) the Company Convertible Notes.

8.6 Headings. 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.

8.7 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 the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any party. 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 as closely as possible in an acceptable manner to the end that the transactions contemplated hereby are fulfilled to the extent possible.

8.8 Entire Agreement. This Agreement (together with the Exhibits, Parent Disclosure Schedule and Company Disclosure Schedule and the other documents delivered pursuant hereto) and the Confidentiality Agreement constitute the entire agreement of the parties and supersede all prior and contemporaneous agreements (except the Confidentiality Agreement) and understandings, both written and oral, among the parties, or any of them, with respect to the subject matter hereof and, except as otherwise expressly provided herein, are not intended to confer upon any other Person any rights or remedies hereunder.

8.9 Assignment. This Agreement shall not be assigned by any party by operation of Law or otherwise without the prior written consent of the other parties; provided, however, that the Parent or the Purchaser may transfer or assign its rights, interests and obligations under this Agreement, in whole or from time to time in part, to one or more of its affiliates, but no such assignment shall relieve the Parent or the Purchaser of its obligations hereunder.

8.10 No Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure solely to the benefit of each party hereto and their respective successors and assigns, and nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to or shall confer upon any other Person any right, benefit or remedy of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of this Agreement, other than any Persons entitled to indemnification under the provisions of Section 5.8 (Indemnification of Directors and Officers), with respect to such provisions. The representations and warranties in this Agreement are the product of negotiations among the parties hereto and are for the sole benefit of the parties hereto. Any inaccuracies in such representations and warranties are subject to waiver by the parties hereto without notice or liability to any other Person. In some instances, the representations and warranties in this Agreement may represent an allocation among the parties hereto of risks associated with

particular matters regardless of the Knowledge of any of the parties hereto, and consequently, may not accurately characterize actual facts or circumstances.

8.11 Mutual Drafting; Interpretation. Each party hereto has participated in the drafting of this Agreement, which each party acknowledges is the result of extensive negotiations between the parties. If an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement shall be construed as if drafted jointly by the parties, and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any party by virtue of the authorship of any provision. For purposes of this Agreement, whenever the context requires: the singular number shall include the plural, and vice versa; the masculine gender shall include the feminine and neuter genders; the feminine gender shall include the masculine and neuter genders; and the neuter gender shall include masculine and feminine genders. As used in this Agreement, the words “include” and “including” and variations thereof, shall not be deemed to be terms of limitation, but rather shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation.” Any reference to any Governmental Entity include any successor to the Governmental Entity and to any affiliate include any successor to the affiliate. Except as otherwise indicated, all references in this Agreement to “Sections,” “Exhibits,” “Annexes” and “Schedules” are intended to refer to Sections of this Agreement and Exhibits, Annexes and Schedules to this Agreement. The schedules and exhibits attached to this Agreement constitute a part of this Agreement and are incorporated herein for all purposes. The words “hereof,” “hereto,” “hereby,” “herein,” “hereunder” and words of similar import, when used in this Agreement, shall refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular section or article in which such words appear. Unless otherwise specifically provided for herein, the term “or” shall not be deemed to be exclusive. The words “will” and “shall” and words of similar import when used in this Agreement shall mean a command. All references in this Agreement to “$” are intended to refer to U.S. dollars. Whenever the last day for the exercise of any right or the discharge of any duty under this Agreement falls on a day other than a Business Day, the party having such right or duty shall have until the next Business Day to exercise such right or discharge such duty. Unless otherwise indicated, the word “day” shall be interpreted as a calendar day. With respect to any determination of any period of time, unless otherwise set forth herein, the word “from” means “from and including” and the word “to” means “to but excluding.”

8.12 Governing Law; Consent to Jurisdiction; Waiver of Trial by Jury.

(a) This Agreement and all claims and causes of action arising in connection herewith shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the Laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to Laws that may be applicable under conflicts of laws principles (whether of the State of Delaware or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the Laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of Delaware.

(b) Each of the parties hereto irrevocably agrees that any Proceeding with respect to this Agreement and the rights and obligations arising in connection herewith, or for recognition and enforcement of any judgment in respect of this Agreement and the rights and obligations arising hereunder brought by any other party hereto or its successors or assigns, will be brought and determined exclusively in the Delaware Court of Chancery and any state appellate court therefrom within the State of Delaware (or, if the Delaware Court of Chancery declines to accept jurisdiction over a particular matter, any state or federal court within the State

of Delaware). Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably submits with regard to any such Proceeding for itself and in respect of its property, generally and unconditionally, to the personal jurisdiction of the aforesaid courts and agrees that it will not bring any action relating to this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated hereby in any court other than the aforesaid courts. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert as a defense, counterclaim or otherwise, in any Proceeding with respect to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, (i) any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of the above named courts for any reason other than the failure to serve in accordance with this Section 8.12, (ii) any claim that it or its property is exempt or immune from the jurisdiction of any such court or from any legal process commenced in such courts (whether through service of notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution of judgment, execution of judgment or otherwise) and (iii) to the fullest extent permitted by the applicable Law, any claim that (A) the Proceeding in such court is brought in an inconvenient forum, (B) the venue of such Proceeding is improper or (C) this Agreement, or the subject matter hereof, may not be enforced in or by such courts. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such Proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by Law. Each party to this Agreement irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 8.3 and agrees that service made in such manner shall have the same legal force and effect as if served upon such party personally within the State of Delaware. Nothing in this Agreement will affect the right of any party to this Agreement to serve process in any other manner permitted by Law.

(c) EACH PARTY ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT ANY CONTROVERSY WHICH MAY ARISE UNDER THIS AGREEMENT IS LIKELY TO INVOLVE COMPLICATED AND DIFFICULT ISSUES, AND THEREFORE IT HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT AND ANY OF THE AGREEMENTS DELIVERED IN CONNECTION HEREWITH OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY. 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 EITHER OF SUCH WAIVERS, (II) IT UNDERSTANDS AND HAS CONSIDERED THE IMPLICATIONS OF SUCH WAIVERS, (III) IT MAKES SUCH WAIVERS VOLUNTARILY AND (IV) IT HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 8.12(c).

8.13 Counterparts. This Agreement may be signed in any number of counterparts, including by facsimile or other electronic transmission each of which shall be an original, with the same effect as if the signatures thereto and hereto were upon the same instrument. This Agreement shall become effective when each party hereto shall have received a counterpart hereof signed by all of the other parties hereto. Until and unless each party has received a counterpart hereof signed by the other party hereto, this Agreement shall have no effect and no party shall have any right or obligation hereunder (whether by virtue of any other oral or written agreement or other communication). The exchange of a fully executed Agreement

(in counterparts or otherwise) by electronic transmission in .PDF format or by facsimile shall be sufficient to bind the parties to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

8.14 Specific Performance. The parties hereto agree that if any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached, irreparable damage would occur, no adequate remedy at Law would exist and damages would be difficult to determine, and accordingly, (a) the parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to specific performance of the terms hereof, in each case in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware or, if such court shall not have jurisdiction, any state or federal court of the United States of America having jurisdiction, this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at Law or in equity, (b) the parties waive any requirement for the securing or posting of any bond in connection with the obtaining of any specific performance or injunctive relief, (c) the parties will waive, in any action for specific performance, the defense of adequacy of a remedy at Law and (d) the seeking of remedies pursuant to this Section 8.14 shall not in any way constitute a waiver by any party seeking such remedies of its right to seek any other form of relief that may be available to it under this Agreement, including under Section 7.2, in the event that this Agreement has been terminated or in the event that the remedies provided for in this Section 8.14 are not available or otherwise are not granted and (d) nothing set forth in this Agreement shall require a party to institute any proceeding for (or limit a party’s right to institute any proceeding for) specific performance under this Section 8.14 prior, or as a condition, to exercising any termination right under Article 7 (and pursuing damages after such termination), nor shall the commencement of any legal proceeding seeking remedies pursuant to this Section 8.14 or anything set forth in this Section 8.14 restrict or limit a party’s right to terminate this Agreement in accordance with the terms of Article 7 or pursue any other remedies under this Agreement that may be available then or thereafter.
