ARTICLE VI

Effect of the Merger on Capital Stock and Equity Awards;
Exchange of Certificates

6.1. Effect on Capital Stock of Stratex. At the Effective Time, as a result of the Merger and without any action on the part of Merger Sub, Stratex or any holder of any capital stock of Stratex:

(a) Merger Consideration. Subject to Section 6.2(i), each share of Stratex Common Stock issued and outstanding at the Effective Time, other than Stratex Excluded Shares, shall be converted into one-fourth of a share of Class A Common Stock (the “Merger Consideration”). At the Effective Time, all shares of Stratex Common Stock (other than Stratex Excluded Shares) shall cease to be outstanding, shall be cancelled and retired and shall cease to exist, and each certificate which prior to the Effective Time represented any such shares of Stratex Common Stock (each, a “Certificate”) shall thereafter represent the shares of Class A Common Stock into which the shares of Stratex Common Stock which it formerly represented were converted by virtue of the Merger and the right, if any, to receive cash in lieu of fractional shares pursuant to Section 6.2(i) and dividends or other distributions with respect to the Class A Common Stock pursuant to the last sentence of Section 6.2(c) upon surrender of such Certificate in accordance with Section 6.2.

(b) Cancellation of Stratex Excluded Shares. Each Stratex Excluded Share issued or outstanding as of the Effective Time shall be cancelled and retired and shall cease to exist without payment of any consideration therefor (except to the extent that such cancellation of any Stratex Excluded Shares held by Newco, Stratex or any of their respective direct or indirect wholly owned Subsidiaries would result in U.S. federal income tax to Newco, Stratex or any of such Subsidiaries, in which case such Stratex Excluded Shares shall not be considered “Stratex Excluded Shares” for any purpose under this Agreement).

(c) Treatment of Merger Sub Common Stock. Each share of Merger Sub Stock issued and outstanding at the Effective Time shall be converted into and become one fully paid and nonassessable share of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Surviving Corporation and each certificate which previously represented any shares of Merger Sub Stock shall thereafter be deemed to represent the same number of shares of common stock of the Surviving Corporation.

6.2. Exchange of Certificates.

(a) Exchange Agent. At the Effective Time, Newco shall deposit, or shall cause to be deposited, with an exchange agent selected by Xxxxxx with Stratex’s prior approval (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) (the “Exchange Agent”), for the benefit of the holders of shares of Stratex Common Stock, one or more certificates representing the aggregate number of shares of Class A Common Stock issuable as Merger Consideration pursuant to the Merger (collectively, the “Class A Merger Shares”) and any cash payable in lieu of fractional shares pursuant to Section 6.2(i). In addition, from time to time after the Effective

-22-

Time, Newco will deposit with the Exchange Agent any dividends or other distributions with respect to the Class A Merger Shares to be paid or issued pursuant to the last sentence of Section 6.2(c) upon due surrender of the Certificates (or affidavits of loss in lieu thereof as provided in Section 6.2(h)) pursuant to the provisions of this ARTICLE VI. The certificate(s) representing Class A Merger Shares, together with the amount of cash payable pursuant to Section 6.2(i) in lieu of fractional shares and dividends or other distributions deposited with the Exchange Agent pursuant to this Section 6.2(a), are referred to as the “Exchange Fund”.

(b) Exchange Procedures. As soon as reasonably practicable after the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation shall cause the Exchange Agent to mail to each holder of record of a Certificate (i) 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 Exchange Agent and shall be in such form and have such other provisions acceptable to Xxxxxx) and (ii) instructions for effecting the surrender of the Certificates in exchange for certificates representing the same number of Class A Merger Shares and any cash payable in lieu of fractional shares pursuant to Section 6.2(i) and any dividends or other distributions to be paid or issued pursuant to the last sentence of Section 6.2(c). Upon surrender of a Certificate to the Exchange Agent with a duly executed copy of such letter of transmittal and compliance with all such instructions, the holder of such Certificate shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor (A) one or more certificates representing the number of Class A Merger Shares equal to one-fourth of the number of shares of Stratex Common Stock represented by such Certificate (rounded down to the next full number of such shares), (B) a check in the amount (after giving effect to any required tax withholdings as provided in Section 6.2(g)) of any cash payable in lieu of fractional shares pursuant to Section 6.2(i) plus any cash dividends and distributions such holder is entitled to receive upon such surrender pursuant to Section 6.2(c), and (C) any non-cash dividends or distributions such holder is entitled to receive upon such surrender, and the Certificate so surrendered shall forthwith be cancelled. No interest will be paid or accrued on any amount payable upon due surrender of the Certificates. If the issuance of a certificate representing Class A Merger Shares or any dividends or distributions is to be made to a Person other than the Person in whose name the surrendered Certificate is registered, it shall be a condition precedent to such payment that (x) the Certificate so surrendered be properly endorsed or shall be otherwise in proper form for transfer and (y) the Person requesting such payment shall have established to the satisfaction of the Surviving Corporation that all transfer and other Taxes required by reason of the payment of the Merger Consideration and any dividends or distributions to a Person other than the registered holder of the surrendered Certificate have been paid or are not required to be paid.

(c) Distributions with Respect to Unexchanged Shares; Voting. (i) All Class A Merger Shares shall be deemed issued and outstanding as of the Effective Time and whenever a dividend or other distribution is declared by Newco in respect of the Class A Common Stock with a record date at or after the Effective Time, that declaration shall include dividends or other distributions in respect of all Class A Merger Shares. No such dividends or other distributions in respect of the Class A Merger Shares shall be paid to any holder of any unsurrendered Certificate until such Certificate is surrendered for exchange in accordance with this ARTICLE VI. Subject to the effect of applicable Laws, following surrender of any such Certificate, there shall be paid and/or issued to the holder of the Class A Merger Shares issued in

-23-

exchange therefor, in each case without interest, (A) at the time of such surrender, the dividends or other distributions with a record date after the Effective Time and a payment date prior to the date of such surrender with respect to such Class A Merger Shares and (B) at the appropriate payment date, the dividends or other distributions payable with respect to such Class A Merger Shares with a record date after the Effective Time but with a payment or delivery date subsequent to surrender.

(ii) At any meeting of Newco’s stockholders after the Effective Time, holders of unsurrendered Certificates shall be entitled to vote the number of shares of Class A Merger Shares represented by such Certificates, regardless of whether such holders have exchanged their Certificates.

(d) Transfers. From and after the Effective Time, there shall be no transfers on the stock transfer books of Stratex of the shares of Stratex Common Stock that were outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time.

(e) Termination of Exchange Fund. Any portion of the Exchange Fund (including the proceeds of any investments thereof and certificates for any Class A Merger Shares) that remains unclaimed by the stockholders of Stratex for 180 days after the Effective Time shall be delivered to Newco. Any holder of Certificates who has not theretofore complied with this ARTICLE VI shall thereafter look only to Newco for delivery of the Merger Consideration and payments of dividends and distributions pursuant to this ARTICLE VI upon due surrender of their Certificates in each case without any interest thereon. Notwithstanding the foregoing, none of Newco, Xxxxxx, the Surviving Corporation, the Exchange Agent or any other Person shall be liable to any former holder of shares of Stratex Common Stock for any amount properly delivered to a public official pursuant to applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar laws.

(f) Investment of Exchange Fund. The Exchange Agent shall invest any cash included in the Exchange Fund, as directed by Newco, on a daily basis. Any interest and other income resulting from such investments shall be paid to Newco.

(g) Withholding Rights. Each of the Surviving Corporation and Newco shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any amounts otherwise payable or deliverable pursuant to this ARTICLE VI to any holder of Certificates such amounts as it is required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under the Code, or any provision of Tax Law. To the extent that amounts are so deducted and withheld by the Surviving Corporation or Newco, as the case may be, such deducted and withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the holders of shares of Stratex Common Stock in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made.

(h) Lost, Stolen or Destroyed Certificates. In the event any Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the Person (who is the record holder of such Certificate) claiming such Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed and, if required by Newco, the posting by such Person of a bond in customary amount and upon such terms as may be required by Newco as indemnity against any claim that may be

-24-

made against it or the Surviving Corporation with respect to such Certificate, the Exchange Agent will issue in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate, a certificate representing the Class A Merger Shares and any dividends or other distributions that would be payable or deliverable in respect thereof pursuant to this Agreement had such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate been surrendered.

(i) Fractional Shares. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, no fractional share of Class A Common Stock will be issued and any holder of Stratex Common Stock that would be entitled to receive a fractional share of Class A Common Stock in the absence of this Section 6.2(i) shall be entitled to receive a cash payment in lieu thereof, which payment shall be calculated by the Exchange Agent and shall represent such holder’s proportionate interest in a share of Class A Common Stock assuming the price of such a share was equal to four (4) times the average of the closing prices per share of Stratex Common Stock on NASDAQ for the five (5) trading days ending on the last trading day prior to the Closing Date.

6.3. No Dissenters’ Rights. In accordance with Section 262 of the DGCL, no appraisal rights shall be available to holders of Stratex Common Stock in connection with the Merger or the other Transactions.

6.4. Treatment of Stratex Stock Plans.

(a) Treatment of Options. At the Effective Time, each outstanding option to purchase shares of Stratex Common Stock (a “Stratex Option”) under the Stratex Stock Plans, whether vested or unvested, shall be converted into an option to acquire that number of shares of Class A Common Stock equal to one-fourth of the number of shares of Stratex Common Stock issuable upon exercise of such Stratex Option immediately prior to such conversion at an exercise price per share equal to four (4) times the exercise price per share of Stratex Common Stock immediately prior to such conversion; provided, however, that the exercise price and the number of shares of Class A Common Stock purchasable pursuant to the Stratex Options shall be determined in a manner consistent with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code; provided, further, that in the case of any Stratex Option to which Section 422 of the Code applies, the exercise price and the number of shares of Class A Common Stock purchasable pursuant to such option shall be determined in accordance with the foregoing, subject to such adjustments as are necessary in order to satisfy the requirements of Section 424(a) of the Code. Except as specifically provided above, following the Effective Time, each Stratex Option shall continue to be governed by the same terms and conditions as were applicable under such Stratex Option immediately prior to the Effective Time.

(b) Stratex Awards. At the Effective Time, each right of any kind, contingent or accrued, to acquire or receive shares of Stratex Common Stock or benefits measured by the value of shares of Stratex Common Stock and each award of any kind consisting of shares of Stratex Common Stock that may be held, awarded, outstanding, payable or reserved for issuance under the Stratex Stock Plans and any other Stratex Benefits Plan, in each case other than Stratex Options (each, a “Stratex Award”), shall be converted into the right to acquire, or the right to receive benefits measured by the value of, the number of shares of Class A Common Stock equal

-25-

to one-fourth of the number of shares of Stratex Common Stock underlying such Stratex Award (rounded down to the nearest whole number) immediately prior to such conversion, and if such Stratex Award determines such rights by reference to the extent the value of the shares of Stratex Common Stock exceed a specified reference price, at a reference price per share of Class A Common Stock (rounded up to the nearest whole cent) equal to four (4) times the reference price per share of Stratex Common Stock. Except as specifically provided above, following the Effective Time, each Stratex Award shall otherwise be subject to the same terms and conditions as were applicable to the rights under the relevant Stratex Stock Plan or other Stratex Benefit Plan immediately prior to the Effective Time.

(c) Registration. If, in connection with the satisfaction of the obligations set forth in Section 6.4(a) and Section 6.4(b), registration of any interests in the Stratex Stock Plans or other Stratex Benefit Plans or the shares of Class A Common Stock issuable pursuant to Section 6.4(a) or Section 6.4(b) is required under the Securities Act, Newco shall file with the SEC as promptly as practicable after the Effective Time a registration statement on Form S-8 with respect to such interests or Class A Common Stock, and shall use its reasonable best efforts to maintain the effectiveness of such registration statement for so long as the Stratex Stock Plans or other Stratex Benefit Plans, as applicable, remain in effect and such registration of interests therein or the shares of Class A Common Stock issuable thereunder continues to be required. As soon as practicable after the registration of such interests or shares, as applicable, Newco shall deliver to the holders of Stratex Options and Stratex Awards appropriate notices setting forth such holders’ rights pursuant to the respective Stratex Stock Plans and agreements evidencing the grants of such Stratex Options and Stratex Awards, and stating that such Stratex Options and Stratex Awards and agreements have been assumed by Newco and shall continue in effect on the same terms and conditions (subject to the adjustments required by this Section 6.4(c) after giving effect to the Merger and the terms of the Stratex Stock Plans).

(d) Corporate Actions. At or prior to the Effective Time, (i) Stratex, the Stratex Board and the compensation committee of the Stratex Board, as applicable, shall adopt all resolutions and take all actions which are necessary to implement the provisions of Section 6.4(a) and Section 6.4(b) and (ii) Newco shall take all actions which are necessary to assume and perform the Stratex Options and Stratex Awards converted pursuant to Section 6.4(a) and Section 6.4(b) including the reservation, issuance (subject to Section 6.4(c)) and listing of Class A Common Stock as necessary to effect the transactions contemplated by this Section 6.4. Stratex shall take all actions necessary to ensure that from and after the Effective Time neither Newco nor the Surviving Corporation will be required to deliver shares of Stratex Common Stock or other capital stock of Stratex to any Person pursuant to or in settlement of Stratex Options or Stratex Awards.

6.5. Treatment of Warrants. At the Effective Time, pursuant to the terms and subject to the conditions contained in the Purchase Agreement, dated as of September 21, 2004 (the “Warrant Agreement”), between Stratex and those Persons identified on Schedule I to the Warrant Agreement, each Warrant shall automatically become exercisable for that number of shares of Class A Common Stock equal to one-fourth of the number of shares of Stratex Common Stock issuable upon exercise of such Warrant immediately prior to the Effective Time at an exercise price per share of Class A Common Stock equal to four (4) times the exercise price

-26-

of such Warrant per share of Stratex Common Stock immediately prior to the Effective Time. Concurrently with the Effective Time, Newco shall assume the obligation to deliver shares of Class A Common Stock to those Persons who are the record holders of the Warrants by entering into the Warrant Assumption Agreement, to be dated as of the Closing Date, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit 12 providing for certain adjustments to the Warrants as specified in, and as required by, the Warrant Agreement.

ARTICLE VII

Representations and Warranties

7.1. Representations and Warranties of Stratex. Except as set forth in the disclosure letter (subject to Section 13.11(c)) delivered to Xxxxxx by Stratex prior to entering into this Agreement and identified as such (the “Stratex Disclosure Letter”), Stratex hereby represents and warrants to Xxxxxx that:

(a) Organization, Good Standing and Qualification. Each of Stratex and each of its Subsidiaries is a corporation or other legal entity duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the Laws of its respective jurisdiction of organization (to the extent the “good standing” concept is applicable in the case of any jurisdiction outside the United States) and has all requisite corporate or other legal entity power and authority to own and operate its properties and assets and to carry on its business as presently conducted and is qualified to do business and is in good standing as a foreign corporation or other legal entity in each jurisdiction where such ownership, operation or conduct requires such qualification (to the extent the “good standing” concept is applicable in the case of any jurisdiction outside the United States), except for any such failures to be so organized, qualified or in good standing or to have such power or authority that, individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to result in a Stratex Material Adverse Effect. Stratex has made available to Xxxxxx a complete and correct copy of the certificate of incorporation and bylaws (or other comparable governing instruments) of Stratex and each of its Subsidiaries, each as amended to the date of this Agreement, and each certificate of incorporation or bylaws (or other comparable governing instruments) so delivered is in full force and effect. Stratex is in compliance with the terms of its certificate of incorporation as amended through the date of this Agreement (the “Stratex Certificate”) and its bylaws as amended through the date of this Agreement (the “Stratex Bylaws” and, collectively with the Stratex Certificate, the “Stratex Governing Instruments”).

(b) Capital Structure. The authorized capital stock of Stratex consists solely of 150,000,000 shares of Stratex Common Stock, of which 97,690,241 shares were issued and outstanding as of the close of business on September 1, 2006, and 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock of Stratex, par value $0.01 per share (“Stratex Preferred Stock”), of which no shares were issued or outstanding as of the date of this Agreement. Since September 1, 2006, Stratex has not issued any shares of Stratex Common Stock. All of the outstanding shares of Stratex Common Stock have been duly authorized and validly issued and are fully paid and nonassessable. Stratex has no shares of Stratex Common Stock or Stratex Preferred Stock reserved for issuance other

-27-

than (i) 15,530,000 shares of Stratex Common Stock reserved for issuance pursuant to those plans of Stratex identified in Section 7.1(b) of the Stratex Disclosure Letter (the “Stratex Stock Plans”), (ii) 200,000 shares of Stratex Preferred Stock reserved for issuance pursuant to the Amended and Restated Rights Agreement, dated as of November 3, 1998 (the “Rights Agreement”) between Stratex and Mellon Shareholder Services, LLC (formerly ChaseMellon Shareholder Services, LLC), and (iii) 2,581,780 shares of Stratex Common Stock reserved for issuance upon the exercise of warrants for shares of Stratex Common Stock with an exercise price of $2.95 per share. The Rights Agreement has expired and no longer has any legal force or effect, and Stratex has not entered into or adopted or implemented any other shareholder rights or similar plan. Section 7.1(b) of the Stratex Disclosure Letter contains a correct and complete list of each outstanding option, restricted stock grant or other right under the Stratex Stock Plans, including the holder, date of grant, term, number of shares of Stratex Common Stock and, where applicable, exercise price and vesting schedule, as well as whether the vesting will be accelerated by the execution of this Agreement or consummation of the Transactions or by termination of employment or change of position following consummation of the Merger. Each of the outstanding shares of capital stock of, or other equity interest in, each of Stratex’s Subsidiaries is duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and is owned by Stratex or by a direct or indirect wholly owned Subsidiary of Stratex, free and clear of any Encumbrance. Except as described above in this Section 7.1(b), there are no preemptive or other options, warrants, rights, conversion rights, convertible or exchangeable securities, “phantom” stock rights, stock appreciation rights, redemption rights, repurchase rights, calls, stock-based performance units, commitments, Contracts, agreements, arrangements or undertakings of any kind to which Stratex or any of its Subsidiaries is a party or by which any of them is bound (i) obligating Stratex or any such Subsidiary to issue, deliver or sell, or cause to be issued, delivered or sold, shares of capital stock or other equity interests in, or any security convertible into, or exercisable or exchangeable for, any capital stock of or other equity interest in, Stratex or any of its Subsidiaries or any Voting Debt, (ii) obligating Stratex or any such Subsidiary to issue, grant, extend or enter into any such option, warrant, call, right, security, commitment, Contract, arrangement or undertaking or (iii) that give any Person the right to receive any economic benefit or right similar to or derived from the economic benefits and rights occurring to holders of shares of capital stock of, or other equity interests in, or any security convertible into, or exercisable or exchangeable for, any capital stock of, or other equity interest in, Stratex or any of its Subsidiaries or any Voting Debt, and no such obligations, instruments or securities are authorized, issued or outstanding. There are no voting trusts or other arrangements or understandings to which Stratex or any of its Subsidiaries is a party with respect to the voting, the dividend rights or disposition of any capital stock of, or other equity interest in, Stratex or any of its Subsidiaries. Stratex does not have outstanding any bonds, debentures, notes or other obligations the holders of which have the right to vote (or are convertible into or exercisable for securities having the right to vote) with the stockholders of Stratex on any matter (“Voting Debt”). Each Stratex Option (i) was granted in compliance with all applicable Laws and all of the terms and conditions of the Stratex Stock Plan pursuant to which it was issued, (ii) has an exercise price per share of Stratex Common Stock equal to or greater than the fair market value of a share of Stratex Common Stock on the date of such grant, (iii) has a grant date identical to the date on which the Stratex Board or its compensation committee actually awarded such Stratex Option and (iv) qualifies for the tax and accounting treatment afforded to such Stratex

-28-

Option in Stratex’s tax returns and the financial statements included in the Stratex Reports, respectively. Stratex does not own, directly or indirectly, any voting interest that may require a filing by Newco, Xxxxxx or any of their Subsidiaries under the HSR Act. Exhibit 21.1 to Stratex’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2006, sets forth all of the Subsidiaries of Stratex as of the date of this Agreement.

(c) Corporate Authority; Approval and Fairness. (i) Stratex has all requisite corporate power and authority and has taken all corporate action necessary in order to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under this Agreement and to consummate the Merger and the other Transactions to which it is a party (collectively, the “Stratex Transactions”), in each case subject only to adoption of this Agreement by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Stratex Common Stock (the “Stratex Requisite Vote”). This Agreement is a valid and legally binding obligation of Stratex enforceable against Stratex in accordance with its terms, subject to bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer, reorganization, moratorium and similar laws of general applicability relating to or affecting creditors’ rights and to general equity principles (the “Bankruptcy and Equity Exception”).

(ii) At a meeting duly called and held prior to execution of this Agreement, the Stratex Board unanimously adopted resolutions (A) approving, adopting and declaring advisable this Agreement and the Transactions and determining that the terms of the Transactions are fair to, and in the best interests of, Stratex and the holders of Stratex Common Stock (collectively, the “Board Approval”) and (B) recommending that the holders of Stratex Common Stock vote to adopt this Agreement (the “Board Recommendation”). Such resolutions are sufficient to cause Section 203 of the DGCL not to apply to any of Xxxxxx, Newco or Merger Sub with respect to any of the Transactions or any other transaction following the Closing.

(iii) The Stratex Board has received the written opinion of its financial advisor, Bear, Xxxxxxx & Co. Inc. (“Bear Xxxxxxx”), dated as of the date of this Agreement, to the effect that, on the basis of and subject to the matters set forth therein and assuming the simultaneous consummation of the Contribution Transaction, as of such date the exchange of one share of Class A Common Stock for four (4) outstanding shares of Stratex Common Stock in the Merger is fair, from a financial point of view, to the holders of Stratex Common Stock. A signed copy of such opinion has been delivered to Xxxxxx.

(d) Governmental Filings; No Violations; Consents; and Approvals.

(i) Other than the filings or notices (A) pursuant to Section 2.1, Section 2.3 and Section 3.4, (B) required under the HSR Act or (C) required to be made under the Exchange Act or with NASDAQ, no Governmental Authorizations are required to be obtained or made by Stratex or any of its Subsidiaries in connection with the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by Stratex or the consummation by Stratex of the Stratex Transactions.

(ii) The execution, delivery and performance by Stratex of this Agreement do not, and the consummation by Stratex of the Stratex Transactions do not and will not, constitute or result in (A) a breach or violation of, or a default under, the Stratex Governing Documents or the comparable governing instruments of any of its Subsidiaries, (B) a breach or violation of, a

-29-

termination (or right of termination) or a default under or the acceleration of any obligations or the creation of any Encumbrance on the assets of Stratex or any of its Subsidiaries (with or without notice, lapse of time or both) pursuant to, any Contract binding upon Stratex or any of its Subsidiaries or, assuming that the necessary consents, approvals and filings referred to in clauses (A) through (C) of Section 7.1(d)(i) are duly obtained and/or made, any Laws, Governmental Authorizations or non governmental permit or license to which Stratex or any of its Subsidiaries is subject or (C) any change in the rights or obligations of any party under any such Contracts, Governmental Authorizations, permits or licenses, except, in the case of the foregoing clauses (B) or (C) only, for any breach, violation, termination, default, acceleration, change or creation that, individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to result in a Stratex Material Adverse Effect. Section 7.1(d) of the Stratex Disclosure Letter sets forth a correct and complete list of Stratex Material Contracts pursuant to which consents or waivers are or may be required prior to consummation of the Transactions (whether or not subject to the exception set forth with respect to clauses (B) and (C) above).

(iii) Without limiting the generality of clause (ii) above, neither the execution, delivery or performance of this Agreement by Stratex nor the consummation by Stratex of the Stratex Transactions will require the receipt of any consent pursuant to, or give rise to any right of termination under, any of the Stratex Material Contracts except for any such consents and any such termination rights which, individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to have a Stratex Material Adverse Effect if not obtained (in the case of such consents) or if exercised (in the case of such termination rights).

(iv) Section 7.1(d) of the Stratex Disclosure Letter sets forth a correct and complete list of all material claims held by Stratex or any of its Subsidiaries, as creditors or claimants, with respect to debtors or debtors-in-possession subject to proceedings under Chapter 11 of Title 11 of the United States Code (the “Bankruptcy Code”), together with a correct and complete list of all orders entered by the applicable United States Bankruptcy Court with respect to each such proceeding. None of such orders, individually or in the aggregate, would reasonably be expected to result in a Stratex Material Adverse Effect.

(e) Stratex Reports; Financial Statements. (i) Stratex has made available to Xxxxxx each registration statement, report, form, proxy or information statement or other document filed or furnished by Stratex or any of its Subsidiaries with or to the SEC since March 31, 2006 (the “Stratex Audit Date”), including Stratex’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2006, each in the form (including exhibits, annexes and any amendments thereto) filed with the SEC (collectively with each other, any such registration statements, reports, forms, proxy or information statements or other documents so filed or furnished subsequent to the date of this Agreement and any amendments to any of the foregoing, the “Stratex Reports”). Stratex and its Subsidiaries have filed or furnished, as applicable, with or to the SEC all registration statements, reports, forms, proxy or information statements and other documents required to be so filed or furnished by them pursuant to applicable securities statutes, regulations, policies and rules since the Stratex Audit Date. Each of the Stratex Reports, at the time first filed with or furnished to the SEC, complied or will comply (as applicable) in all material respects with the applicable requirements of the Securities Act and Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder and complied in all material respects with the then

-30-

applicable accounting standards. As of their respective dates, the Stratex Reports did not, and any Stratex Reports filed with the SEC subsequent to the date of this Agreement will not, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements made therein, in light of the circumstances in which they were made, not misleading. The Stratex Reports included or will include all certificates required to be included therein pursuant to Sections 302 and 906 of the SOX Act, and the internal control report and attestation of Stratex’s outside auditors required by Section 404 of the SOX Act.

(ii) Each of the consolidated balance sheets included in or incorporated by reference into the Stratex Reports (including the related notes and schedules) fairly presents or, in the case of Stratex Reports filed or furnished after the date of this Agreement, will fairly present, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Stratex and its consolidated Subsidiaries as of its date and each of the consolidated statements of income, stockholders’ equity and cash flows included in or incorporated by reference into the Stratex Reports (including any related notes and schedules) fairly presents or, in the case of Stratex Reports filed or furnished after the date hereof, will fairly present, in all material respects, the consolidated results of operations, stockholders’ equity and cash flows, respectively, of Stratex and its consolidated subsidiaries for the periods set forth therein (subject, in the case of unaudited statements, to notes and normal year-end audit adjustments that will not be material in amount or effect), in each case in accordance with GAAP consistently applied during the periods involved, except as may be noted therein.

(iii) Stratex is in compliance in all material respects with the applicable provisions of the SOX Act and the applicable listing and corporate governance rules and regulations of NASDAQ.

(iv) The management of Stratex has (A) designed and implemented disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Exchange Act) which management reasonably believes will ensure that material information relating to Stratex, including its consolidated subsidiaries, is made known to the management of Stratex by others within those entities and (B) has disclosed, based on its most recent evaluation, to Stratex’s outside auditors and the audit committee of the Stratex Board (1) all significant deficiencies and material weaknesses in the design or operation of internal controls over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) of the Exchange Act) which are reasonably likely to adversely affect Stratex’s ability to record, process, summarize and report financial data and (2) any fraud, whether or not material, that involves management or other employees who have a significant role in Stratex’s internal controls over financial reporting. Stratex has made available to Xxxxxx a summary of any such disclosure made by management since March 31, 2004. Since the Stratex Audit Date, any material change in internal controls over financial reporting required to be disclosed in any Stratex Report has been so disclosed.

(v) Since the date of their last certification filed with the SEC, neither the chief executive officer nor the chief financial officer of Stratex has become aware of any fact, circumstance or change that is or is reasonably likely to result in a “significant deficiency” or a

-31-

“material weakness” in Stratex’s internal controls over financial reporting, other than as disclosed in the Stratex Reports filed prior to the date of this Agreement.

(vi) Since March 31, 2003, (A) neither Stratex nor any of its Subsidiaries nor, to the Knowledge of Stratex, any director, officer, employee, auditor, accountant or representative of Stratex or any of its Subsidiaries, has received or otherwise had or obtained Knowledge of any material complaint, allegation, assertion or claim, whether written or oral, regarding the accounting or auditing practices, procedures, methodologies or methods of Stratex or any of its Subsidiaries or their respective internal accounting controls, including any material complaint, allegation, assertion or claim that Stratex or any of its Subsidiaries has engaged in questionable accounting or auditing practices and (B) no attorney representing Stratex or any of its Subsidiaries, whether or not employed by Stratex or any of its Subsidiaries, has reported evidence of a material violation of the securities Laws, breach of fiduciary duty or similar violation by Stratex or any of its officers, directors, employees or agents to the Stratex Board or any committee thereof or, to the Knowledge of any officer of Stratex, to any director or officer of Stratex.

(vii) Since March 31, 2004, each registration statement of Stratex (including exhibits, annexes and any amendments or supplements thereto) filed with the SEC pursuant to the Securities Act, as of the date such registration statement or amendment became effective, did not 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 not misleading.

(f) Information Supplied. None of the information supplied or to be supplied by Stratex for inclusion or incorporation by reference in the registration statement on Form S-4 of Newco (together with any amendments or supplements thereto, the “Registration Statement”), pursuant to which the shares of Class A Common Stock issuable in connection with the Merger will be registered with the SEC pursuant to the Securities Act, or the proxy statement/prospectus (together with any amendments or supplements thereto, the “Proxy Statement/Prospectus”) included in the Registration Statement which is to be sent to the stockholders of Stratex in connection with the Stratex Stockholder Meeting shall (i) in the case of the Registration Statement, at the time it is filed with the SEC or at the time it is declared effective by the SEC, or becomes effective, or (ii) in the case of the Proxy Statement, at the time it is mailed to the stockholders of Stratex or at the time of the Stratex Stockholder Meeting 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 therein not misleading (in the case of the Proxy Statement/Prospectus only, in light of the circumstances under which they are made).

(g) Absence of Certain Changes. Since the Stratex Audit Date, Stratex and its Subsidiaries have conducted their respective businesses only in, and have not engaged in any material transaction other than in accordance with, the ordinary course of such businesses. Since the Stratex Audit Date and on or prior to the date of this Agreement, there has not been any event, occurrence, discovery or development that, individually or in the aggregate, has had or would reasonably be expected to have a Stratex Material Adverse Effect. On or after the Stratex Audit Date and on or prior to the date of this Agreement, none of the actions or events described in clauses (a) through (w) of Section 8.1 has been taken or has occurred.

-32-

(h) Litigation and Liabilities. (i) There are no civil, criminal or administrative actions, suits, demands, claims, hearings, litigations, arbitrations, investigations or other proceedings pending or, to the Knowledge of Stratex, threatened against Stratex or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates by, before or with any Government Entity or any other Person. None of Stratex or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates is a party to, or subject to the provisions of, any judgment, order, writ, injunction, decree or award of any Government Entity.

(ii) There are no liabilities or obligations of Stratex or any Subsidiary of Stratex, whether or not accrued, contingent or otherwise and whether or not required to be disclosed, or any other facts or circumstances that would reasonably be expected to result in any obligations or liabilities of, Stratex or any of its Subsidiaries, other than those:

(A) reflected on the consolidated balance sheet of Stratex or readily apparent in the notes thereto, in each case included in Stratex’s annual report on Form 10-K for the period ended March 31, 2006 (but only to the extent so reflected or readily apparent);

(B) incurred in the ordinary course of business since March 31, 2006;

(C) required to be performed after the date of this Agreement pursuant to the terms of the Contracts listed in Section 7.1(d) of the Stratex Disclosure Letter or applicable Law; or

(D) that, individually or in the aggregate, have not had since the Stratex Audit Date, and would not reasonably be expected to result in, a Stratex Material Adverse Effect.

(i) Employee Benefits.

(i) All benefit and compensation plans, contracts, policies or arrangements covering current or former employees of Stratex or any of its Subsidiaries and current or former directors of Stratex or any of its Subsidiaries, including any “employee benefit plans” within the meaning of Section 3(3) of ERISA, and any deferred compensation, stock option, stock purchase, stock appreciation rights, stock based, incentive, bonus, workers’ compensation, short term disability, vacation and severance plans and all employment, severance and change in control agreements, and all amendments thereto (the “Stratex Benefit Plans”) are listed in Section 7.1(i)(i) of the Stratex Disclosure Letter, and each Stratex Benefit Plan which is intended to be qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code, including any master or prototype plan, has been separately identified. True and complete copies of all Stratex Benefit Plans listed in Section 7.1(i)(i) of the Stratex Disclosure Letter, including any trust instruments, insurance contracts and, with respect to any employee stock ownership plan, loan agreements forming a part of any Stratex Benefit Plans, and all amendments thereto have been provided or made available to Xxxxxx.

(ii) No Stratex Benefit Plan is a “multi-employer plan” within the meaning of Section 3(37) of ERISA (a “Multi-Employer Plan”). All Stratex Benefit Plans are in substantial compliance with ERISA, the Code and other applicable Laws. Each Stratex Benefit Plan which

-33-

is subject to ERISA (the “Stratex ERISA Plans”) that is an “employee pension benefit plan” within the meaning of Section 3(2) of ERISA (a “Stratex Pension Plan”) and that is intended to be qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code, has received a favorable determination letter from the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) for all Tax Law changes prior to the Economic Growth and Tax Relief Reconciliation Act of 2001 or has applied to the IRS for such favorable determination letter within the applicable remedial amendment period under Section 401(b) of the Code, and Stratex is not aware of any circumstances likely to result in the loss of the qualification of such Stratex Pension Plan under Section 401(a) of the Code. Any voluntary employees’ beneficiary association within the meaning of Section 501(c)(9) of the Code which provides benefits under a Stratex Benefit Plan has (A) received an opinion letter from the IRS recognizing its exempt status under Section 501(c)(9) of the Code and (B) filed a timely notice with the IRS pursuant to Section 505(c) of the Code, and Stratex is not aware of circumstances likely to result in the loss of such exempt status under Section 501(c)(9) of the Code. Neither Stratex nor any of its Subsidiaries has engaged in a transaction with respect to any Stratex ERISA Plan that, assuming the Taxable period of such transaction expired as of the date of this Agreement, would subject Stratex or any Subsidiary to a Tax or penalty imposed by either Section 4975 of the Code or Section 502(i) of ERISA in an amount that would be material. Neither Stratex nor any of its Subsidiaries has incurred or reasonably expects to incur a Tax or penalty imposed by Section 4980F of the Code or Section 502 of ERISA or any Liability under Section 4071 of ERISA.

(iii) No Liability under Subtitle C or D of Title IV of ERISA has been or is expected to be incurred by Stratex or any of its Subsidiaries with respect to any ongoing, frozen or terminated “single-employer plan”, within the meaning of Section 4001(a)(15) of ERISA, currently or formerly maintained by any of them, or the single-employer plan of any entity which is considered one employer with Stratex under Section 4001 of ERISA or Section 414 of the Code (a “Stratex ERISA Affiliate”). No notice of a “reportable event”, within the meaning of Section 4043 of ERISA for which the 30 day reporting requirement has not been waived or extended, other than pursuant to Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation (“PBGC”) Reg. Section 4043.66, has been required to be filed for any Stratex Pension Plan or by any Stratex ERISA Affiliate within the 12 month period ending on the date hereof or will be required to be filed in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. No notices have been required to be sent to participants and beneficiaries or the PBGC under Section 302 or 4011 of ERISA or Section 412 of the Code.

(iv) All contributions required to be made under each Stratex Benefit Plan, as of the date hereof, have been timely made and all obligations in respect of each Stratex Benefit Plan have been properly accrued and reflected in the most recent consolidated balance sheet filed or incorporated by reference in the Stratex Reports prior to the date hereof. Neither any Stratex Pension Plan nor any single-employer plan of a Stratex ERISA Affiliate has an “accumulated funding deficiency” (whether or not waived) within the meaning of Section 412 of the Code or Section 302 of ERISA and neither Stratex nor any Stratex ERISA Affiliate has an outstanding funding waiver. It is not reasonably anticipated that required minimum contributions to any Stratex Pension Plan under Section 412 of the Code will be materially increased by application of Section 412(l) of the Code. Neither Stratex nor any of its Subsidiaries has provided, or is

-34-

required to provide, security to any Stratex Pension Plan or to any single-employer plan of a Stratex ERISA Affiliate pursuant to Section 401(a)(29) of the Code.

(v) Under each Stratex Pension Plan which is a single-employer plan, as of the last day of the most recent plan year ended prior to the date hereof, the actuarially determined present value of all “benefit liabilities”, within the meaning of Section 4001(a)(16) of ERISA (as determined on the basis of the actuarial assumptions contained in such Stratex Pension Plan’s most recent actuarial valuation), did not exceed the then current value of the assets of such Stratex Pension Plan, and there has been no material change in the financial condition of such Stratex Pension Plan since the last day of the most recent plan year.

(vi) Neither Stratex nor any of its Subsidiaries has any obligations for retiree health and life benefits under any Stratex Benefit Plan or collective bargaining agreement.

-48-

Section 3(3) of ERISA, any deferred compensation, stock option, stock purchase, stock appreciation rights, stock based, incentive, bonus, workers’ compensation, short term disability, vacation and severance plans and all employment, severance and change in control agreements, and all amendments thereto (the “MCD Employee Benefit Plans”), are listed in Section 7.2(i)(i) of the Xxxxxx Disclosure Letter, and each MCD Employee Benefit Plan which is intended to be qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code, including any master or prototype plan, has been separately identified.

(ii) No MCD Employee Benefit Plan is a Multi-Employer Plan. All MCD Employee Benefit Plans covering MCD Employees are in substantial compliance with ERISA, the Code and other applicable Laws, except to the extent failure to comply would not cause any Liability to Newco. Each MCD Employee Benefit Plan which is subject to ERISA (the “MCD Employee ERISA Plans”) that is an “employee pension benefit plan” within the meaning of Section 3(2) of ERISA (a “MCD Employee Pension Plan”) and that is intended to be qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code, has received a favorable determination letter from the IRS for all Tax Law changes prior to the Economic Growth and Tax Relief Reconciliation Act of 2001 or has applied to the IRS for such favorable determination letter within the applicable remedial amendment period under Section 401(b) of the Code, and Xxxxxx is not aware of any circumstances likely to result in the loss of the qualification of such Plan under Section 401(a) of the Code.

(iii) No Liability under Subtitle C or D of Title IV of ERISA has been or is expected to be incurred by Xxxxxx or any of its Subsidiaries with respect to any terminated “single-employer plan”, within the meaning of Section 4001(a)(15) of ERISA, formerly maintained by any of them, or the terminated single-employer plan of any entity which is considered one employer with Xxxxxx under Section 4001 of ERISA or Section 414 of the Code (a “Xxxxxx ERISA Affiliate”).

(iv) All contributions required to be made with respect to any MCD Employees under each MCD Employee Benefit Plan, as of the date hereof, have been timely made and all obligations in respect of each MCD Employee Benefit Plan have been properly accrued and reflected in the Audited Financial Statements. Neither Xxxxxx nor any of its Subsidiaries nor any Xxxxxx ERISA Affiliate maintains as of the date of this Agreement a single-employer plan within the meaning of 4001(a)(15) of ERISA or any plan subject to the requirements of Section 412 of the Code.

(vi) There has been no amendment to, or announcement by Xxxxxx or any of its Subsidiaries in respect of the MCD Employees relating to, or change in employee participation or coverage under, any MCD Employee Benefit Plan which would increase materially the expense of maintaining such MCD Employee Benefit Plan above the level of the expense incurred therefor for the most recent fiscal year. Neither the execution of this Agreement nor the consummation of the Transactions will (A) entitle any MCD Employees to severance pay or benefits or any increase in severance pay or benefits upon any termination of employment after the date hereof or (B) accelerate the time of payment or vesting or result in any payment or funding (through a grantor trust or otherwise) of compensation or benefits under, increase the amount payable or result in any other material obligation pursuant to, any of the MCD Employee Benefit Plans to any MCD Employees. None of Xxxxxx or any of its Subsidiaries has entered into any contract, agreement or arrangement with any MCD Employee in connection with or in contemplation of any of the Transactions.

(vii) Section 7.2(i)(vii) of the Xxxxxx Disclosure Letter sets forth a true, correct and complete list of all MCD Employees on September 1, 2006, identifying as to each a job title, years of service and location of employment.

(viii) There are no outstanding loans to any MCD Employee from any Contributed Subsidiary other than claims any MCD Employee may have under an MCD Employee Benefit Plan covering such MCD Employee. As of the date hereof, there is no pending, or to the Knowledge of Xxxxxx, threatened investigations or other proceedings by or with any Government Entity or litigation relating to the MCD Employee Benefit Plans.

(j) Compliance with Laws and Regulations; Governmental Authorizations. The MCD Business has not been, and is not being, conducted in material violation of any applicable Laws.

Additional Agreements

9.1. Acquisition Proposals. (a) Stratex agrees that neither it nor any of its Subsidiaries nor any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents and representatives (any such Persons, including any investment banker, attorney or accountant, a “Representative”) shall, directly or indirectly, initiate, solicit, encourage or facilitate any inquiries or the making or implementation of any proposal or offer with respect to (i) a merger, consolidation, share exchange, reorganization or other business combination transaction involving Stratex, (ii) any acquisition of any equity or other ownership interests in Stratex or any of its Subsidiaries representing, in the aggregate, 15% or more of the total voting power or economic interest of all of the outstanding equity or other ownership interest in Stratex or an economic interest of equivalent value in any Subsidiary of Stratex or (iii) any acquisition of assets of Stratex or any of its Subsidiaries representing 15% or more of the total assets of Stratex and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole (any such inquiry, proposal or offer being hereinafter referred to as an “Acquisition Proposal”). Stratex further agrees that neither it nor any of its Subsidiaries nor any of their respective Representatives shall, directly or indirectly, provide any confidential or non public information or data to, or engage or participate in any discussions or negotiations with, any Person relating to an Acquisition Proposal, or otherwise encourage or facilitate any effort or attempt by any Person, in each case, other than Xxxxxx, Newco or Merger Sub, to make or implement an Acquisition Proposal; provided, however, that nothing contained in this Agreement shall prevent Stratex or the Stratex Board from (i) complying with its disclosure obligations under Sections 14d-9 and 14e-2 of the Exchange Act and the rules thereunder with regard to an Acquisition Proposal or making any disclosures to holders of Stratex Common Stock that the Stratex Board determines in good faith (after consultation with outside counsel) that the Stratex Board is required to make in order to comply with its fiduciary duties to the holders of Stratex Common Stock under the DGCL (but if any disclosure made to effect such compliance has the substantive effect of withdrawing, or modifying or qualifying in any manner adverse to Xxxxxx, the Board Recommendation or Board Approval or recommending or approving another Acquisition Proposal (each, a “Change In Recommendation”), Xxxxxx shall have the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 11.1(c)) or (ii) at any time prior to, but not after, the Stratex Requisite Vote is obtained: (A) providing confidential or non public information in response to a request therefor by a Person who has made an unsolicited bona fide written Acquisition Proposal (assuming, for this purpose only, that all references to “15% or more” in the definition of such term were changed to “a majority”) which did not result from a breach of this Section 9.1 (a “Qualifying Acquisition Proposal”); (B) engaging or participating in any discussions or negotiations with any Person who has made a Qualifying Acquisition Proposal; or (C) approving or recommending to the holders of shares of Stratex Common Stock a Qualifying Acquisition Proposal (or agreeing to take any such action), if and only to the extent that, (1) in the case of any action described in clause (A), (B) or (C) above, after consulting with outside legal counsel the Stratex Board determines in good faith that failing to take such action would

-64-

constitute a breach by the directors of Stratex of their fiduciary duties under applicable Law; (2) prior to taking any action described in clause (A) or (B) above, Stratex and the other Person referred to in such clauses execute and deliver a written confidentiality agreement on terms substantially similar to those contained in the Confidentiality Agreement; (3) in the case of any action described in clause (B) or (C) above, the Stratex Board determines in good faith and after consulting with its financial advisors and outside counsel that the Qualifying Acquisition Proposal referred to in such clauses is (x) more favorable from a financial point of view to Stratex’s stockholders than the Transactions after taking into account any Revised Terms offered by Xxxxxx before such action is taken and all other relevant factors (including but not limited to the probability that such Qualifying Acquisition Proposal will be consummated and the time required to effect such consummation) and (y) reasonably likely to be consummated taking into account all legal, financial, regulatory (including, without limitation, any antitrust or competition approvals or non objections) and other relevant factors (any such Qualifying Acquisition Proposal, a “Superior Proposal”) or, in the case of clause (A) or clause (B) only, is reasonably likely to lead to a Superior Proposal; (4) before taking any of the actions described in clause (B) or (C) above, Stratex shall have provided written notice to Xxxxxx of Stratex’s or the Stratex Board’s intention to take such action, at least five (5) Business Days (in the case of the first Qualifying Acquisition Proposal made by such Person) or one (1) Business Day (in the case of any subsequent Qualifying Acquisition Proposal made by such Person) shall have elapsed since the date on which Xxxxxx received such notice and Stratex shall have complied with the provisions of Section 9.1(c). Any determination required or permitted to be made by the Stratex Board after the date of this Agreement under this Agreement shall be sufficient if approved by a majority of the total number of members thereof at a meeting duly called and held and at which a quorum was present and acting throughout.

(b) Stratex agrees that it will immediately cease and cause to be terminated any existing activities, discussions or negotiations with any Person conducted heretofore with respect to any Acquisition Proposal. Stratex will promptly request each Person that has heretofore executed a confidentiality agreement in connection with its consideration of a transaction with Stratex to return or destroy all confidential information furnished prior to the execution of this Agreement to or for the benefit of such Person by or on behalf of Stratex or any of its Subsidiaries and to destroy all summaries, analyses or extracts of or based upon such information in the possession of such Person or any of its Representatives. Stratex agrees that it will take the necessary steps to promptly inform its Representatives of the obligations undertaken in this Section 9.1. None of Stratex or any of its Subsidiaries will waive any provision of any confidentiality or standstill agreement to which it is a party without the prior written consent of Xxxxxx.

(c) Stratex agrees that it will notify Xxxxxx as promptly as practicable (and, in any event, within 24 hours) if any inquiries, proposals or offers with respect to any Acquisition Proposal or potential Acquisition Proposal are received by, any information relating thereto is requested from, or any discussions or negotiations relating thereto are sought to be initiated or continued with, it or any of its Representatives, indicating, in connection with such notice, the name of such Person and the material terms and conditions of any proposal or offer and thereafter shall keep Xxxxxx informed, on a current basis, as to the status and terms of any such proposal or offer and the status of any such discussions or negotiations. Stratex also agrees to

-65-

Any such revisions which Xxxxxx offers in writing to make which, if accepted by Stratex, would be legally binding on the parties to this Agreement are referred to herein as “Revised Terms”.

Unless and until the Board Recommendation has been withdrawn as permitted by this Agreement, the Board Approval and Board Recommendation shall be included in the Proxy Statement/Prospectus and the Stratex Board shall take all reasonable and lawful action to solicit the adoption of this Agreement by the holders of shares of Stratex Common Stock by the Stratex Requisite Vote at the Stratex Stockholders Meeting.

material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading or (ii) the Prospectus/Proxy Statement and any amendment or supplement thereto will, at the date of mailing to the stockholders of Stratex and at the time of the Stratex Stockholders Meeting, 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 therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. Xxxxxx and Stratex will cause the Registration Statement to comply as to form in all material respects with the applicable provisions of the Securities Act and the rules and regulations thereunder.

(c) Each party shall provide to the other party and its counsel (i) any comments or other communications, whether written or oral, that such party or its counsel may receive from time to time from the SEC or its staff with respect to the Registration Statement or Prospectus/Proxy Statement, promptly after receipt of those comments or other communications and (ii) a reasonable opportunity to participate in the response to those comments and to provide comments on that response (to which reasonable and good faith consideration shall be given), including by participating in any discussions or meetings with the SEC.

(d) No amendment or supplement to any of the Registration Statement or the Proxy Statement/Prospectus will be made by either party without the approval of the other party, which will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, except as may be required by applicable Law.

(e) Each party shall advise the other party and its counsel, promptly after it receives notice thereof, of the time when the Registration Statement has become effective or any supplement or amendment has been filed, the issuance of any stop order, the suspension of the qualification of the shares of Common Stock in connection with the Merger for offering or sale in any jurisdiction, or any request by the SEC for any amendment to the Registration Statement or Prospectus/Proxy Statement of or comments thereon and responses thereto or requests by the SEC for additional information. If, at any time before the Stratex Requisite Vote has been obtained, Xxxxxx or Stratex discovers any information relating to either party or Newco, or any of their respective Subsidiaries, officers or directors, that should be set forth in an amendment or supplement to the Registration Statement or Prospectus/Proxy Statement, so that such document would not include any misstatement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements made therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, the party that discovers such information shall promptly notify the other parties and the parties will cooperate with each other in order to promptly file with the SEC and, to the extent required by applicable Law, disseminate to the stockholders of Stratex, an appropriate amendment or supplement describing such information. Xxxxxx and Stratex shall use their reasonable best efforts to take any action required to be taken under any applicable state securities laws in connection with the Contribution Transaction and the Merger and each party shall furnish all information concerning it and the holders of its capital stock as may be reasonably requested in connection with any such action.

(f) Stratex will take, in accordance with applicable Law and the Stratex Governing Instruments, all action necessary to call, give notice of, convene and hold a meeting of its stockholders (the “Stratex Stockholders Meeting”) as promptly as practicable after the S-4 Registration Statement is declared effective, and in any event will use its reasonable best efforts to convene the Stockholders Meeting not later than 120 days after the date of this Agreement (or, if later, not more than 60 days after effectiveness of the Registration Statement), to consider and vote upon the adoption of this Agreement. Stratex shall submit this Agreement to the holders of

-67-

The rights of the D&O Indemnified Parties under this Section 9.18 shall be in addition to, and not in substitution for, any other rights that such persons may have under the certificate or articles of incorporation, bylaws or other equivalent organizational documents, any and all indemnification agreements of or entered into by Newco or any of its Subsidiaries, or applicable Law (whether at law or in equity).

12.4. Third Party Claims. If any claim or action by a third party is made in writing against a Xxxxxx Indemnified Person or a Newco Indemnified Person (each, an “Indemnified Party”) for which indemnification is provided under this Agreement and such Indemnified Party intends to seek such indemnity, then such Indemnified Party shall promptly notify the party from whom indemnification may be sought hereunder (the “Indemnifying Party”) in writing of such claim or action; provided, however, that any failure by such Indemnified Party to such give such notice promptly will not relieve the Indemnifying Party of any of its indemnification obligation hereunder except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is actually prejudiced by such failure. In case any such action shall be brought against any Indemnified Party, the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to participate therein or, at its election, to assume the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party.

No Indemnifying Party shall, without the written consent of the Indemnified Party, effect the settlement or compromise of, or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to, any pending or threatened action or claim in respect of which indemnification or contribution may be sought hereunder (whether or not the Indemnified Party is an actual or potential party to such action or claim) unless such settlement, compromise or judgment (i) includes an unconditional release of the Indemnified Party from all liability arising out of such action or claim and (ii) does not include a statement as to, or an admission of, fault, culpability or a failure to act, by or on behalf of the Indemnified Party. No indemnification shall be available in respect of any settlement of any action or claim effected by an Indemnified Party without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party.

-83-

12.5. Tax and Insurance Adjustments. Any and all Losses for which indemnification is provided hereunder shall be (a) increased to take into account any net Taxes actually payable by the applicable Indemnified Parties attributable to the receipt of such payment (grossed up for such increase) and (b) reduced to take into account any net tax benefit actually realized by the applicable Indemnified Party as a result of incurring such Losses or any insurance proceeds actually recovered in respect of such Losses (net of any cost of recovery or increased premiums resulting therefrom) and each party agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to recover all available insurance proceeds.

EXHIBIT 1

FORM OF VOTING AGREEMENT

September 5, 2006

[Name]
[Address]

Dear Mr. •:

This letter is to confirm our agreement regarding all of the shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Common Stock”), of STRATEX NETWORKS, INC., a Delaware corporation (“Stratex”), beneficially owned (as defined below) by you and your Affiliates as of the date of this letter agreement (the “Current Shares”) and all other shares of Common Stock as to which you or your Affiliates may hereafter acquire beneficial ownership after the date of this letter agreement (“New Shares” and, collectively with the Current Shares, the “Subject Shares”), which agreement was required to induce XXXXXX CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation (“Harris”), to enter into the Formation, Contribution and Merger Agreement, dated the date hereof (the “Formation Agreement”), among Stratex and Harris. As used in this letter agreement, “beneficial ownership” shall have the meaning set forth in Rule 13d-3 and Rule 13d-5 under the Exchange Act; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing no shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of outstanding options issued by Stratex shall be deemed to be beneficially owned for any purpose of this letter agreement unless, until and only to the extent that such shares are acquired upon any such exercise and nothing in this letter agreement shall be deemed to require any such exercise. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein which are defined in the Formation Agreement shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Formation Agreement; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing neither Stratex nor any of its other officers, directors or Subsidiaries shall be deemed to be your Affiliate.

Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, you hereby agree (i) to vote or cause to be voted all of the Subject Shares in favor of the adoption of the Formation Agreement and approval of the Merger at the Stratex Stockholder Meeting (including any adjournment or postponement thereof), (ii) to vote or cause to be voted all of Subject Shares against any Acquisition Proposal other than the Merger, or any other matters which could reasonably be expected to impede, interfere with, delay or adversely affect the consummation of the Merger or the other transactions contemplated by the Formation Agreement, (iii) to comply with all restrictions and obligations imposed on Stratex’s Representatives by Section 9.1 of the Formation Agreement and (iv) not to sell, transfer, assign, pledge, encumber or dispose of, or grant a proxy or enter into a voting agreement or trust or similar arrangement with respect to, any of the Subject Shares (other than pursuant to this letter agreement or to Xxxxxx or any of its Subsidiaries). In furtherance of your voting agreement in clauses (i) and (ii) of the preceding sentence, you hereby revoke any and all previous proxies with respect to any of the Subject Shares and grant to Xxxxxx and such individuals or corporations as Xxxxxx may designate an irrevocable proxy to vote all of the Subject Shares beneficially owned by you or any of your Affiliates in

accordance with such clause. You hereby acknowledge that the proxy granted by the foregoing is coupled with an interest and is irrevocable. In addition, you hereby agree to execute such additional documents as Harris may reasonably request to effectuate its proxy and voting rights under this paragraph. You hereby agree to notify Stratex’s transfer agent for the Common Stock of the limitations on transfer imposed by this letter agreement.

You hereby represent and warrant that (i) you and/or your Affiliates are the sole record and beneficial owner of the Current Shares and will be the sole and record beneficial owner of all New Shares from and after the date you and/or your Affiliates acquire beneficial ownership thereof (with respect to each New Share, its “Acquisition Date”) , (ii) you and your Affiliates have the sole and full right, power and authority to vote all of the Current Shares and will have the sole and full right, power and authority to vote all of the New Shares from and after their respective Acquisition Dates, (iii) you have full power and authority to, and will, cause each of your Affiliates who beneficially owns any Subject Shares to comply with this letter agreement, (iv) you have full power and authority to execute, deliver and perform your obligations under this letter agreement and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby, (iv) this letter agreement has been duly executed and delivered by you and constitutes a valid and legally binding obligation of you, enforceable against you in accordance with its terms subject only to the Bankruptcy and Equity Exception, and (v) neither the execution, delivery or performance by you of this letter agreement nor the consummation by you or your Affiliates of the transactions contemplated hereby will constitute a violation of, or conflict with, or default under, any applicable Law or any contract, commitment, agreement, understanding, arrangement or restriction of any kind to which you or any of your Affiliates are a party or by which you or any such Affiliate or the Subject Shares are bound.

We each hereby agree that you are not making any agreement or understanding herein in any capacity other than in your capacity as a stockholder of Stratex. Nothing contained in this letter agreement shall restrict you from taking any actions as an officer or director of Stratex if the failure to take such action would result in a breach of your fiduciary duties to the stockholders of Stratex.

This letter agreement will terminate, and all rights and obligations of the parties hereunder shall terminate, concurrently with consummation of the Merger or the termination of the Formation Agreement in accordance with its terms. No such termination shall relieve any party from liability for any willful breach of this letter agreement.

Each party shall be entitled, without prejudice to the rights and remedies otherwise available to such party, to specific performance of all of the other party’s obligations hereunder. This letter agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Delaware without giving effect to the conflict of laws principles thereof. No party shall be required to pay or reimburse any

-2-

expenses incurred by any other party in connection with the execution, delivery or performance of this letter agreement.

This letter agreement (i) is not intended to, and does not, confer upon any person or entity other than the parties who are signatories hereto any rights or remedies hereunder, (ii) constitutes the entire agreement among the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all other prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and (iii) may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original.

XXXXXX STRATEX NETWORKS, INC.

Article I

The name of the Corporation is Xxxxxx Stratex Networks, Inc. (the “Corporation”).

Article II
Registered Agent

The address of the registered office of the Corporation in the State of Delaware is 0000 Xxxxxx Xxxxxx, the City of Wilmington, County of New Castle, and the name of its registered agent at that address is The Corporation Trust Corporation.

Article III
Purpose

The purpose of the Corporation is to engage in any lawful act or activity for which corporations may be organized under the General Corporation Law of Delaware.

Article IV
Capitalization

The total number of shares of all classes that this Corporation is authorized to issue is [650,000,000] shares, of which (i) [50,000,000] shares shall be designated as preferred stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Preferred Stock”), (ii) [400,000,000] shares shall be designated as Class A common stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Class A Common Stock”), and (iii) [200,000,000] shares shall be designated as Class B common stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Class B Common Stock” and, collectively with the Class A Common Stock, the “Common Stock”).

Except for issuances expressly provided for in this Certificate of Incorporation, the Corporation shall not issue any shares of Class B Common Stock or any securities or other rights convertible into, or exercisable or exchangeable for, Class B Common Stock without the prior approval of the holders of a majority of the shares of Class B Common Stock outstanding prior to such issuance (each such issuance requiring such prior approval is hereinafter referred to as an “Additional Class B Issuance”).

Except as otherwise provided in this Certificate of Incorporation, the Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock shall have the same rights and privileges and shall rank equally, share ratably and be identical in all respects as to all matters.

(a) Voting. Except as otherwise provided in this Certificate of Incorporation or required by law, the Common Stock shall vote together as a single class on all matters presented to the stockholders, with each holder of Common Stock being entitled to one vote for each share of Common Stock held of record by such holder on such matters; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing as long as any shares of Class B Common Stock are outstanding (i) the holders of the Class B Common Stock shall have the sole and exclusive right to elect or remove the Class B Directors (as defined below) and no holder of any other class of capital stock of the Corporation shall have any voting rights with respect to such matters and (ii) the Corporation shall not, without the prior approval of the holders of a majority of the outstanding Class B Common Stock voting separately as a class: (A) amend, alter or repeal (including by merger or otherwise) any provision of this Certificate of Incorporation so as to adversely affect the rights, preferences, privileges or protections of the Class B Common Stock, (B) effect or agree to effect any Additional Class B Issuance or (C) take any other action upon which a separate class vote of the Class B Common Stock shall be required by law.

(b) Dividends. Subject to the rights of the holders of any series of Preferred Stock, holders of the Common Stock shall be entitled to receive such dividends and distributions (whether payable in cash or otherwise) as may be declared on the Common Stock by the board of directors of the Corporation (the “Board”) from time to time out of assets or funds of the Corporation legally available therefor; provided, however, that the Board shall declare no dividend or distribution, and no dividend or distribution shall be paid, with respect to any outstanding share of Class A Common Stock or Class B Common Stock, whether in cash or otherwise (including any dividend in shares of Class A Common Stock on or with respect to shares of Class A Common Stock or any dividend in shares of Class B Common Stock on or with respect to shares of Class B Common Stock (collectively, “Stock Dividends”)), unless the same dividend or distribution is simultaneously declared or paid, as applicable, with respect to each outstanding share of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock. If a Stock Dividend is declared or paid with respect to one class of Common Stock, then a Stock Dividend shall likewise be declared or paid with respect to the other class of Common Stock and shall consist of the number of shares of such other class which bears the same relationship to the total number of shares of such other class outstanding immediately prior to the payment of such Stock Dividends as the number of shares to be issued in the Stock Dividend with respect to the first referenced class of Common Stock bears to the total number of shares of such first referenced class outstanding immediately prior to the payment of such Stock Dividends. Stock Dividends with respect to Class A Common Stock may be paid only with shares of Class A Common Stock. Stock Dividends with respect to Class B Common Stock may be paid only with shares of Class B Common Stock.

(c) Subdivisions, Combinations and Mergers. If the Corporation shall in any manner split, subdivide or combine the outstanding shares of either class of Common Stock, the outstanding shares of the other class of Common Stock shall likewise be split, subdivided or combined in the same manner proportionately and on the same basis per share. In the event of any merger, statutory share exchange, consolidation or similar form of corporate transaction involving the Corporation (whether or not the Corporation is the

-2-

surviving entity), the holders of Class A Common Stock and the holders of Class B Common Stock shall be entitled to receive the same per share consideration, if any.

(d) Rights on Liquidation. Subject to the rights of the holders of any series of Preferred Stock, in the event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Corporation (whether voluntary or involuntary), the assets of the Corporation available for distribution to stockholders shall be distributed in equal amounts per share to the holders of Class A Common Stock and the holders of Class B Common Stock, as if such classes constituted a single class. For purposes of this paragraph, a merger, statutory share exchange, consolidation or similar corporate transaction involving the Corporation (whether or not the Corporation is the surviving entity), or the sale, transfer or lease by the Corporation of all or substantially all its assets, shall not constitute or be deemed a liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Corporation.

(e) Exchange. At any time or from time to time, any holder of Class B Common Stock may exchange (i) any outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock held by such holder for an equal number of shares of Class B Common Stock or (ii) any outstanding shares of Class B Common Stock for an equal number of shares of Class A Common Stock, in each case by surrendering the certificates, if any, for such shares together with written notice duly signed by such holder requesting such exchange and accompanied by all payments required for documentary, stamp or similar issue or transfer taxes payable in connection with such exchange or evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Corporation that all such taxes have been paid. To the extent permitted by law, such exchange shall be deemed to have been effected at the close of business on the date of such surrender.

(f) Automatic Conversion. Each outstanding share of Class B Common Stock shall convert into one outstanding share of Class A Common Stock automatically and without any further action by the Corporation or any other Person: (i) at the first time the holders of all of the outstanding shares of Class B Common Stock (assuming that all the outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock which are then exchangeable for Class B Common Stock have been so exchanged) are collectively entitled to cast less than 10% of the Total Voting Power (as defined below) and (ii) if such Class B Common Stock is transferred by a holder to any Person who is not an Affiliate of such holder or a Nominee (as defined below) of such holder or one of its Affiliates; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing no such conversion shall occur pursuant to this clause (ii) if such transfer is part of a transfer by such holder and its Affiliates of all of the shares of Class B Common Stock then owned by them (either directly or through a Nominee) to any other Person or to any other Person and its Affiliates. From and after any such conversion, each certificate, if any, formerly representing shares of Class B Common Stock shall represent the same number of shares of Class A Common Stock and upon surrender of such certificate to the Corporation the holder of such certificate shall be entitled to receive a new certificate or book-entry interest representing such number of shares of Class A Common Stock. Immediately upon any such conversion of any shares of Class B Common Stock into shares of Class A Common Stock, the rights of the holders of such shares of Class B Common Stock as such shall cease and such holders

-3-

shall be treated for all purposes as having become the record owners of the shares of Class A Common Stock into which such shares of Class B Common Stock were converted; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing such holders shall be entitled to receive when paid any dividends or other distributions declared on such shares of Class B Common Stock with a record date preceding the time of such conversion and which have not yet been paid as of the time of such conversion subject to the following sentence. Upon any such conversion of any shares of Class B Common Stock into shares of Class A Common Stock, any dividend or other distribution declared on such shares of Class B Common Stock with a record date or payment date after the time of such conversion shall be deemed to have been declared, and shall be payable, with respect to the shares of Class A Common Stock into which such shares of Class B Common Stock shall have been so converted and any such dividend payable in shares of Class B Common Stock shall be deemed to have been declared, and shall be payable, in shares of Class A Common Stock.

(g) Reservation of Shares. The Corporation shall at all times reserve and keep available, out of its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock, such number of shares of Class A Common Stock as would become issuable upon conversion of all shares of Class B Common Stock then outstanding.

(h) Certain Definitions. In this Certificate of Incorporation, any reference herein to any law, rule or regulation shall be deemed to be a reference to any successor or replacement law, rule or regulation and the following terms shall have the meanings assigned to them below:

(i) the distinctive serial designation of such series which shall distinguish it from other series;

(ii) the number of shares included in such series;

Article V
Section 203 of the DGCL

The Corporation hereby elects not to be governed by Section 203 of the DGCL until the first time (the “Section 203 Time”) on which the holders of all the outstanding shares of Class B Common Stock (assuming that all of the outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock which are then exchangeable for Class B Common Stock are so exchanged) are collectively entitled to cast less than 15% of the Total Voting Power. At the Section 203 Time, Section 203 of the DGCL shall begin to apply prospectively to the Corporation, but no Person shall be deemed to be an “interested stockholder” (as such term is defined in Section 203 of the DGCL) solely because such Person became an interested stockholder prior to the Section 203 Time.

Article VI
Class B Directors

The number of Directors of the Corporation shall be fixed from time to time pursuant to the bylaws of the Corporation (the “Bylaws”); provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing or anything in the Bylaws to the contrary:

-6-

(a) At all times when the holders of all the outstanding shares of Class B Common Stock (assuming that all the outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock which are then exchangeable for Class B Common Stock have been so exchanged) are collectively entitled to cast a majority of the Total Voting Power: (i) the Board shall be comprised of nine Directors, (ii) the Class B Common Stock shall be entitled, voting separately as a class, to elect five of such Directors to serve as Class B Directors, (iii) the quorum for action by the Board shall be a majority of the Board, which majority shall include at least four Class B Directors, and (iv) the remaining four Directors will be Class A Directors nominated by a nominating committee consisting solely of the Class A Directors then in office (the “Nominating Committee”) and elected by the holders of the Common Stock, voting together as a single class; provided, however, that at all times when Rule 4350(d)(2)(A) of the NASDAQ Rules applies to the Corporation a sufficient number of the Class A Directors must satisfy the requirements of that Rule with respect to the Corporation so that, together with any Class B Directors which may also satisfy such requirements with respect to the Corporation, there are enough Directors to constitute an audit committee of the Board which complies with the requirements of Rule 4350(d) of the NASDAQ Rules. As used herein, “NASDAQ Rules” means the rules promulgated by The Nasdaq Stock Market, Inc. which apply to issuers whose common stock is listed on the Nasdaq Global Market.

(b) At all times when the holders of all of the outstanding shares of Class B Common Stock (assuming that all the outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock which are then exchangeable for Class B Common Stock have been so exchanged) are collectively entitled to cast a percentage of the Total Voting Power (the “Voting Percentage”) which is less than a majority but equal to or greater than 10% of the Total Voting Power: (i) the Class B Common Stock shall be entitled, voting separately as a class, to elect a number of Class B Directors which represents the Voting Percentage of the total number of Directors then comprising the entire Board (rounded down to the next whole number of Directors), and (ii) the remaining Directors will be Class A Directors nominated by the Nominating Committee (the composition of which shall comply with the requirements of Rule 4350(c)(4) of the NASDAQ Rules) and elected by the holders of the Common Stock, voting together as a single class; provided, however, that at all times when such rules apply to the Corporation a sufficient number of the Class A Directors must (A) qualify as an Independent Director with respect to the Corporation as such term is defined in Rule 4200(15) of the NASDAQ Rules so that Board complies with Rule 4350(c)(1) of the NASD Rules and (B) satisfy the requirements of Rule 4350(d)(2)(A) of the NASDAQ Rules with respect to the Corporation so that, together with any Class B Directors which may also satisfy such requirements with respect to the Corporation, there are enough Directors to constitute an audit committee which complies with the requirements of Rule 4350(d) of the NASDAQ Rules.

(c) The holders of the Class B Common Stock, voting separately as a class, shall have the sole right to remove the Class B Directors with or without cause at any time and for any reason and the sole right to appoint successor Directors to fill any vacancies on the Board caused by any such removals. The holders of the Class A Common Stock, voting separately as a class, shall have the sole right to remove the Class

-7-

A Directors without cause and the sole right to appoint successor Directors to fill any vacancies on the Board caused by any such removals. The holders of the Common Stock, voting together as a single class, shall have the sole right to remove the Class A Directors for cause and the sole right to appoint successor Directors to fill any vacancies on the Board caused by any such removals. Any vacancy created by any resignation, death or incapacity of any Class B Director shall be filled by the remaining Class B Directors then in office or, if there are none, by the holders of the Class B Common Stock, voting separately as a class. Any vacancy created by the resignation, death or incapacity of any Class A Director shall be filled by the remaining Class A Directors then in office or, if there are none, by the holders of the Class A Common Stock, voting separately as a class.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Certificate of Incorporation, if any transaction or transactions occur which entitle the holders of Class B Common Stock to preemptive rights under Article VIII hereof, then no determination of the percentage of the Total Voting Power collectively entitled to be cast by the holders of all of the outstanding Class B Common Stock (assuming that all the outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock which are then exchangeable for Class B Common Stock have been so exchanged) shall be made for any purpose of this Certificate of Incorporation until after the exercise or expiration of all such preemptive rights in respect of all such transactions by such holders.

Article VII
Corporate Opportunities

Nothing in this Article VII will impair the Corporation’s ability to enter into contractual arrangements with a stockholder of the Corporation which restrict the stockholder from engaging in activities otherwise allowed by this Article and the following provisions shall be subject to the terms of any such contractual arrangements. The provisions of this Article VII shall be effective to the maximum extent permitted by Law and are not intended to be enforceable to any further extent.

Except as expressly provided in the proviso to the last sentence of this Article VII, each holder of Class B Common Stock shall have the right to, and none of such holders shall have any fiduciary duty or other obligation to the Corporation, any of its Subsidiaries or any stockholder of any of the foregoing not to, take any of the following actions:

(a) engage in the same or similar activities or lines of business as the Corporation or any Subsidiary or develop or market any products or services that compete, directly or indirectly, with those of the Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries;

(b) invest or own any interest in, or develop a business relationship with, any Person engaged in the same or similar activities or lines of business as, or otherwise in competition with, the Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries;

-8-

(d) employ or otherwise engage any former officer or employee of the Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries.

No holder of Class B Common Stock nor any of its Affiliates nor any officer, director, employee or former employee of any such holder or Affiliate that is not currently an employee of the Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries (including any Class B Directors) shall have any obligation, or be liable, to the Corporation, any of its Subsidiaries or any stockholder of any of the foregoing for or arising out of the conduct described in the immediately preceding paragraph or the exercise of any rights under the Formation, Contribution and Merger Agreement, dated as of September 5, 2006, between Xxxxxx Corporation and Stratex Networks, Inc. or any other agreement attached thereto as an exhibit or contemplated thereby and none of them shall be deemed to have acted (i) in bad faith, (ii) in a manner inconsistent with the best interests of the Corporation, any of its Subsidiaries or any of their shareholders or (iii) in a manner inconsistent with, or opposed to, any fiduciary duty owed by them to the Corporation, any of its Subsidiaries or any of their stockholders by reason of any such conduct or exercise of such rights or any of their participation therein.

If any holder of Class B Common Stock, any Subsidiary of such holder or any director, officer or employee of such holder or any of such Subsidiaries, including any such individuals who are also directors, officers or employees of the Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries, (collectively, the “Class B Entities”) acquires knowledge of a potential opportunity, transaction or matter which may be a corporate opportunity for both a Class B Entity, on the one hand, and the Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries, on the other hand, (each, a “Corporate Opportunity”), then each Class B Entity shall have the right to, and none of them shall have any fiduciary duty or other obligation not to, pursue such Corporate Opportunity for itself or direct such Corporate Opportunity to any of its Affiliates or any third party and none of the Class B Entities (i) shall have any duty to communicate, offer or present such corporate opportunity to the Corporation, any of its Subsidiaries or any director, officer or employee of any of the foregoing, (ii) shall have any liability to the Corporation, any of its Subsidiaries or any of their stockholders for breach of any fiduciary duty or other duty as a stockholder, director, officer or employee of the Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries or otherwise, (iii) shall be deemed to have acted (x) in bad faith, (y) in a manner inconsistent with the best interests of the Corporation, any of its Subsidiaries or any of their stockholders or (z) in a manner inconsistent with, or opposed to, any fiduciary duty [or other duty] owed by them to the Corporation, any of its Subsidiaries or any of their stockholders, in each case by reason of the fact that any Class B Entity pursues or acquires such Corporate Opportunity for itself, directs such Corporate Opportunity to any of its Affiliates or any third party, or does not communicate information regarding such Corporate Opportunity to the Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries, directors, officers or employees; provided, however, that notwithstanding anything in this Article VII to the contrary a Corporate Opportunity offered to an individual who is a director or officer of both the Corporation and the holder of Class B Common Stock shall belong to the Corporation if such Corporate Opportunity is expressly offered to such individual in writing solely in his or her capacity as a director or officer of the Corporation.

Neither the alteration, amendment or repeal of this Article VII nor the adoption of any provision of this Certificate of Incorporation inconsistent with this Article VII nor the

-9-

conversion or exchange of Class B Common Stock shall eliminate or reduce the effect of this Article VII in respect of any Corporate Opportunity any Class B Entity began pursuing, any matter occurring or any cause of action, suit or claim that, absent this Article VII, would have accrued or arisen prior to such alteration, amendment, repeal, adoption, conversion or exchange.

Article VIII
Preemptive Rights

If the Corporation proposes to issue (a “Proposed Issuance”) any capital stock of the Corporation or any securities convertible into, or exercisable or exchangeable for, such capital stock (collectively, the “Offered Securities”) at any time when the holders of all the outstanding shares of Class B Common Stock (assuming that all the outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock which are then exchangeable for Class B Common Stock have been so exchanged) are collectively entitled to cast a majority of the Total Voting Power, the Corporation shall give written notice of the Proposed Issuance to the holders of Class B Common Stock (the “Offer Notice”) at least 30 days prior to such issuance. Such notice shall describe all the material terms and conditions of such Proposed Issuance. Each holder of Class B Common Stock shall have the right to acquire at the same price and on the same terms and conditions, an additional amount of the Offered Securities so that the percentage of the outstanding Common Stock and Total Voting Power then owned by such holder shall not change as a result of such acquisition and Proposed Issuance; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing (i) such holder may elect to acquire a lesser number of additional Offered Securities as it may determine in its sole discretion and (ii) if the Offered Securities are, or are convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for, Class A Common Stock, then in lieu thereof such holder shall be entitled to purchase Class B Common Stock or Offered Securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Class B Common Stock, as applicable. If any holder of Class B Common Stock fails to accept such offer by written notice received by the Corporation within fifteen (15) days following the date on which such holder received the Offer Notice, the Proposed Issuance may be consummated free and clear of the preemptive right granted to the holders of Class B Common Stock under this Article VIII. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the purchase price for any Proposed Issuance is to be paid in whole or in part other than in cash, then the holders of Class B Common Stock may pay the purchase price in cash in an amount per Offered Security equal to the fair market value of the aggregate non-cash consideration so payable, as reasonably determined in good faith by the Board, divided by the total number of Offered Securities to be issued without giving effect to the preemptive right granted by this Article VIII.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the preemptive right granted by this Article VIII shall not apply to any Proposed Issuance pursuant to any stock option, restricted stock or employee benefit plan of the Corporation; provided, however, at the end of each month the Corporation shall give the holders of Class B Common Stock written notice of all such Proposed Issuances during such month (the “Monthly Offer Notice”) and each holder of Class B Common Stock shall have the right, exercisable by delivering written notice to the Corporation (each, a “Monthly Exercise Notice”) within fifteen days after the date on which such holder received the Monthly Offer Notice, to purchase for cash a sufficient number of shares of Class B Common Stock so that the percentage of the outstanding Common Stock and Total Voting Power then owned by such holder shall not change as a result of such acquisition and Proposed Issuances;

-10-

provided, however, that such holder may elect to acquire a lesser number of such shares of Class B Common Stock as it may determine it its sole discretion. The per share purchase price for any purchase of Class B Common Stock pursuant to a Monthly Exercise Notice shall be (i) if the Class A Common Stock is then listed on a national securities exchange or quoted on an automated inter-dealer quotation system, the closing price of the Class A Common Stock on the trading day immediately preceding the date on which the Corporation received the Monthly Exercise Notice or (ii) in all other cases, the fair market value of one share of Class A Common Stock as determined in good faith by the Board.

The chairman of the meeting shall, if the facts warrant, determine and declare to the meeting that business was not properly brought before the meeting in accordance with the provisions of this Section 13 and if it shall be so determined, the chairman of the meeting shall so declare this to the meeting and such business not properly brought before the meeting shall not be transacted.

Section 14. Only persons who are nominated in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 14 shall be eligible for election by the stockholders as Class A Directors (as defined in the certificate of incorporation). Nominations of persons for election as Class A Directors may be made at a meeting of stockholders by or at the direction of the Class A Directors (as defined in the certificate of incorporation) or by any stockholder of the corporation (other than a stockholder who holds Class B Common Stock of the corporation) entitled to vote for the election of directors at the meeting who complies with the notice procedures set forth in this Section 14. Such nominations, other than those made by or at the direction of the Class A Directors, shall be made pursuant to timely notice in writing to the secretary. To be timely, a stockholder’s notice shall be delivered to or mailed and received at the principal place of business of the corporation not less than sixty (60) nor more than ninety (90) days prior to the meeting; provided, however, that in the event that less than seventy (70) days’ notice or prior public disclosure of the date of the meeting is given or made to stockholders, notice by the

At the request of the Board of Directors any person nominated by the Board of Directors for election as a director shall furnish to the secretary that information required to be set forth in a stockholder’s notice of nomination which pertains to the nominee. No person shall be eligible for election as a Class A Director unless nominated in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 14. The chairman of the meeting shall, if the facts warrant, determine and declare to the meeting that a nomination was not made in accordance with the provisions of this Section 14 and if it shall be so determined, the chairman shall so declare this to the meeting and the defective nomination shall be disregarded.

Section 8. Subject to any requirements in the certificate of incorporation, at all meetings of the Board of Directors, one-third (1/3) of the authorized number of directors, or two (2), whichever is greater, shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business and the act of a majority of the directors present at any meeting at which there is a quorum shall be the act of the Board of Directors, except as may be otherwise specifically provided by statute, by the certificate of incorporation or by Article III, Section 9 of these Bylaws.

Section 11. The Board of Directors may, by resolution passed by a majority of the whole Board of Directors, designate one or more committees, each committee to consist of one or more of the directors of the corporation. The Board of Directors may designate one or more directors as alternate members of any committee who may replace any absent or disqualified member at any meeting of the committee.

In the absence or disqualification of a member of a committee, the member or members thereof present at any meeting and not disqualified from voting, whether or not he or they constitute a quorum, may unanimously appoint another member of the Board of Directors to act at the meeting in the place of any such absent or disqualified member.

Before payment of any dividend, there may be set aside out of any funds of the corporation available for dividends such sum or sums as the Board of Directors from time to time, in its absolute discretion, think proper as a reserve or reserves to meet contingencies, or for equalizing dividends, or for repairing or maintaining any property of the corporation, or for such other purpose as the Board of Directors shall think conducive to the interest of the corporation, and the directors may modify or abolish any such reserve in the manner in which it was created.

Section 3. All checks or demands for money and notes of the corporation shall be signed by such officer or officers or such other person or persons as the Board of Directors may from time to time designate.

Section 4. The fiscal year of the corporation shall be fixed by resolution of the Board of Directors.

Section 5. The Board of Directors may adopt a corporate seal having inscribed thereon the name of the corporation, the year of its organization and the words “Corporate Seal, Delaware”. The seal may be used by causing it or a facsimile thereof to be impressed or affixed or reproduced or otherwise.

Section 6. Each person who was or is made a party to or witness or other participant in or is threatened to be made a party to or witness or other participant in or is otherwise involved in any action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative, investigative or other (hereinafter a “proceeding”), by reason of the fact that he or she, or a person for whom he or she is the legal representative, is or was a director or officer of the corporation or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation or of a partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise (hereinafter a “designee”), whether the basis of the proceeding is alleged action in an official capacity as a director, officer or designee or in any other capacity while serving as a director, officer or designee, shall be indemnified and held harmless by the corporation to the fullest extent permitted by the General Corporation Law of Delaware, as the same exists or may hereafter be amended, against all expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines, penalties, amounts paid in settlement, liability and loss (including, without limitation, all interest, assessments and other charges paid or payable in connection with or in respect of any of the foregoing) (hereinafter collectively “expenses”, which expenses shall also include without limitation any expenses of establishing a right to indemnification or advancement under this Section 6 or Article VII, Section 7 or 8) reasonably incurred or suffered by such director, officer or designee in connection therewith; provided, however, that, except as provided in Article VII, Section 8, the corporation shall indemnify any such director, officer or designee seeking indemnification in connection with a proceeding (or part thereof) initiated by such director, officer or designee only if such proceeding (or part thereof) was authorized by the Board of Directors of the corporation. The corporation may, by

-13-

action of the Board of Directors, provide indemnification to employees and agents of the corporation with the same scope and effect as the foregoing indemnification of directors, officers and designees.

Section 7. Expenses incurred by or on behalf of any person in defending any proceeding by reason of the fact that such person is or was a director, officer or designee of the corporation shall be advanced by the corporation prior to the final disposition of such proceeding; provided, however, that if the General Corporation Law of Delaware requires, the payment of such expenses incurred by a director, officer or designee in his or her capacity as a director, officer or designee (and not in any other capacity in which service was or is rendered by such person while a director, officer or designee, including, without limitation, service to an employee benefit plan) in advance of the final disposition of a proceeding shall be made only upon delivery to the corporation of an undertaking by or on behalf of such director, officer or designee to repay all amounts so advanced if it shall ultimately be determined that such director, officer or designee is not entitled to be indemnified under Article VII, Section 6 or this Section 7 or otherwise.

Section 8. If a claim under either Article VII, Section 6 or 7 is not paid in full by the corporation within 30 days after a written claim has been received by the corporation, the claimant may at any time thereafter bring suit against the corporation to recover the unpaid amount of the claim and, if successful in whole or in part, the claimant shall be entitled to be paid also the expense of prosecuting such claim. It shall be a defense to any such action (other than an action brought to enforce a claim for expenses incurred in defending any proceeding in advance of its final disposition where the required undertaking, if any is required, has been tendered to the corporation) that the claimant has not met the standards of conduct which make it permissible under the General Corporation Law of Delaware for the corporation to indemnify the claimant for the amount claimed, but the burden of proving such defense shall be on the corporation. Neither the failure of the corporation (including the Board of Directors, independent legal counsel or the stockholders) to have made a determination prior to the commencement of such action that indemnification of the claimant is proper in the circumstances because he or she has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in the General Corporation Law of Delaware, nor an actual determination by the corporation (including the Board of Directors, independent legal counsel or the stockholders) that the claimant has not met such applicable standard of conduct, shall be a defense to the action or create a presumption that the claimant has not met the applicable standard of conduct.

Section 9. Article VII, Sections 6 and 7 shall be deemed to be a contract between the corporation and each director who serves in such capacity at any time while this Bylaw is in effect, and any repeal or modification thereof shall not affect any rights or obligations then existing with respect to any state of facts then or theretofore existing or any action, suit or proceeding theretofore or thereafter brought based in whole or in part upon any such state of facts.

Section 10. The foregoing rights of indemnification shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which those seeking indemnification may be entitled

-14-

under any bylaw, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise, both as to action in an official capacity and as to action in another capacity while holding such office, to the extent such additional rights to indemnification are authorized in the certificate of incorporation. Persons seeking indemnification or advancement may seek either or both at his or her discretion and the pursuit of one shall neither be deemed a waiver of such person’s rights to pursue the other, nor shall it have any effect on the outcome of such person’s pursuit of the other. Nothing contained in Article VII, Section 6, 7, 8 or 9 or this Section 10 shall affect any right to indemnification to which persons other than directors, officers or designees may be entitled by contract or otherwise. Nothing in this section shall restrict the power of the corporation to indemnify its directors, officers, designees, employees or agents under any provision of the General Corporation Law of Delaware, as amended from time to time, or under any other provision of law from time to time applicable to the corporation, nor shall anything in Article VII, Section 6, 7, 8 or 9 or this Section 10 authorize the corporation to indemnify its directors, officers, designees, employees or agents in situations prohibited by the General Corporation Law of Delaware or other applicable law.

An annual meeting of stockholders shall be held for the election of directors at such date, time and place either within or without the State of Delaware as may be designated by the board of directors (the “Board of Directors”) of the corporation (the “Corporation”) from time to time. Any other proper business may be transacted at the annual meeting.

Section 1.2. Special Meetings. Special meetings of stockholders may be called at any time by the Chairman of the Board, if any, the Vice Chairman of the Board, if any, the President or the Board of Directors, to be held at such date, time and place either within or without the State of Delaware as may be stated in the notice of the meeting. A special meeting of stockholders shall be called by the Secretary upon the written request, stating the purpose of the meeting, of stockholders who together own of record a majority of the outstanding shares of each class of stock entitled to vote at such meeting.

Section 1.3. Notice of Meetings. Whenever stockholders are required or permitted to take any action at a meeting, a written notice of the meeting shall be given which shall state the place, date and hour of the meeting, and, in the case of a special meeting, the purpose or purposes for which the meeting is called. Unless otherwise provided by law, the written notice of any meeting shall be given not less than ten nor more than sixty days before the date of the meeting to each stockholder entitled to vote at such meeting. If mailed, such notice shall be deemed to be given when deposited in the United States mail, postage prepaid, directed to the stockholder at such stockholder’s address as it appears on the records of the Corporation.

Section 1.4. Adjournments. Any meeting of stockholders, annual or special, may be adjourned from time to time, to reconvene at the same or some other place, and notice need not be given of any such adjourned meeting if the time and place thereof are announced at the meeting at which the adjournment is taken. At the adjourned meeting the Corporation may transact any business which might have been transacted at the original meeting. If the adjournment is for more than thirty days, or if after the adjournment a new record date is fixed for the adjourned

meeting, a notice of the adjourned meeting shall be given to each stockholder of record entitled to vote at the meeting.

Section 1.5. Quorum. At each meeting of stockholders, except where otherwise provided by law or the certificate of incorporation of the Corporation or these Bylaws, the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of stock entitled to vote on a matter at the meeting, present in person or represented by proxy, shall constitute a quorum. In the absence of a quorum of the holders of any class of stock entitled to vote on a matter, the holders of such class so present or represented may, by majority vote, adjourn the meeting of such class from time to time in the manner provided by Section 1.4 of these Bylaws until a quorum of such class shall be so present or represented. Shares of its own capital stock belonging on the record date for the meeting to the Corporation or to another corporation, if a majority of the shares entitled to vote in the election of directors of such other corporation is held, directly or indirectly, by the Corporation, shall neither be entitled to vote nor be counted for quorum purposes; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not limit the right of the Corporation to vote stock, including but not limited to its own stock, held by it in a fiduciary capacity.

Each stockholder entitled to vote at a meeting of stockholders or to express consent or dissent to corporate action in writing without a meeting may authorize another person or persons to act for such stockholder by proxy, but no such proxy shall be voted or acted upon after three years from its date, unless the proxy provides for a longer period. A duly executed proxy shall be irrevocable if it states that it is irrevocable and if, and only as long as, it is coupled with an interest sufficient in law to support an irrevocable power, regardless of whether the interest with which it is coupled is an interest in the stock itself or an interest in the Corporation generally. A stockholder may revoke any proxy which is not irrevocable by attending the meeting and voting in person or by filing an instrument in writing revoking the proxy or another duly executed proxy bearing a later date with the

-2-

Secretary of the Corporation. Voting at meetings of stockholders need not be by written ballot and need not be conducted by inspectors unless the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of all classes of stock entitled to vote thereon present in person or represented by proxy at such meeting shall so determine. Directors shall be elected by a plurality of the votes of the shares present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote on the election of directors. In all other matters, unless otherwise provided by law or by the certificate of incorporation of the Corporation or these Bylaws, the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the shares present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote on the subject matter shall be the act of the stockholders. Where a separate vote by class or classes is required, the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the shares of such class or classes present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting shall be the act of such class or classes, except as otherwise provided by law or by the certificate of incorporation of the Corporation or these Bylaws.

Section 1.8. Fixing Date for Determination of Stockholders of Record. In order that the Corporation may determine the stockholders entitled to notice of or to vote at any meeting of stockholders or any adjournment thereof, the Board of Directors may fix a record date, which record date shall not precede the date upon which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted by the Board of Directors, and which record date shall not be more than sixty nor less than ten days before the date of such meeting. If no record date is fixed by the Board of Directors, the record date for determining stockholders entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of stockholders shall be at the close of business on the day next preceding the day on which notice is given, or, if notice is waived, at the close of business on the day next preceding the day on which the meeting is held. A determination of stockholders of record entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of stockholders shall apply to any adjournment of the meeting; provided, however, that the Board of Directors may fix a new record date for the adjourned meeting.

In order that the Corporation may determine the stockholders entitled to consent to corporate action in writing without a meeting, the Board of Directors may fix a record date, which record date shall not precede the date upon which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted by the Board of Directors, and which date shall not be more than ten days after the date upon which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted by the Board of Directors. If no record date has been fixed by the Board of Directors, the record date for determining stockholders entitled to consent to corporate action in writing without a meeting, when no prior action by the Board of Directors is required by law, shall be the first date on which a signed written consent setting forth the action taken or proposed to be taken is delivered to the Corporation by delivery to its registered office in the State of Delaware, its principal place of business, or an officer or agent of the Corporation having custody of the book in which proceedings of meetings of stockholders are recorded.

been fixed by the Board of Directors and prior action by the Board of Directors is required by law, the record date for determining stockholders entitled to consent to corporate action in writing without a meeting shall be at the close of business on the day on which the Board of Directors adopts the resolution taking such prior action.

In order that the Corporation may determine the stockholders entitled to receive payment of any dividend or other distribution or allotment of any rights or the stockholders entitled to exercise any rights in respect of any change, conversion or exchange of stock, or for the purpose of any other lawful action, the Board of Directors may fix a record date, which record date shall not precede the date upon which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted, and which record date shall be not more than sixty days prior to such action.

Section 1.10. Consent of Stockholders in Lieu of Meeting. Unless otherwise provided in the certificate of incorporation of the Corporation or by law, any action required by law to be taken at any annual or special meeting of stockholders of the Corporation, or any action which may be taken at any annual or special meeting of such stockholders, may be taken without a meeting, without prior notice and without a vote, if a consent or consents in writing, setting forth the action so taken, shall be signed by the holders of outstanding stock having not less than the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to authorize or take such action at a meeting at which all shares entitled to vote thereon were present and voted and shall be delivered to the Corporation by delivery to (a) its registered office in the State of Delaware by hand or by certified mail or registered mail, return receipt requested, (b) its principal place of business, or (c) an officer or agent of the Corporation having custody of the book in which proceedings of meetings of stockholders are recorded. Every written consent shall bear the date of signature of each stockholder who signs the consent and no written consent shall be effective to take the corporate action referred to therein unless, within sixty days of the earliest dated consent delivered in the manner required by this by-law to the Corporation,

-4-

written consents signed by a sufficient number of holders to take action are delivered to the Corporation by delivery to (a) its registered office in the State of Delaware by hand or by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, (b) its principal place of business, or (c) an officer or agent of the Corporation having custody of the book in which proceedings of meetings of stockholders are recorded. Prompt notice of the taking of the corporate action without a meeting by less than unanimous written consent shall be given to those stockholders who have not consented in writing and who, if the action had been taken at a meeting, would have been entitled to notice of the meeting if the record date for such meeting had been the date that written consents signed by a sufficient number of stockholders to take the action were delivered to the Corporation as provided in this Section 1.10.

Whenever notice is required to be given by law or under any provision of the certificate of incorporation of the Corporation or these Bylaws, a written waiver thereof, signed by the person entitled to notice, whether before or after the time stated therein, shall be deemed equivalent to notice. Attendance of a person at a meeting shall constitute a waiver of notice of such meeting, except when the person attends a meeting for the express purpose of objecting, at the beginning of the meeting, to the transaction of any business because the meeting is not lawfully called or convened. Neither the business to be transacted at, nor the purpose of, any regular or special meeting of the stockholders, directors or members of a committee of directors need be specified in any written waiver of notice unless so required by the certificate of incorporation of the Corporation or these Bylaws.

Section 6.4. Indemnification of Directors, Officers and Employees. The Corporation shall indemnify to the full extent permitted by law any person made or threatened to be made a party to any action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, by reason of the fact that such

-9-

person or such person’s testator or intestate is or was a director, officer or employee of the Corporation or serves or served at the request of the Corporation any other enterprise as a director, officer or employee. Expenses, including attorneys’ fees, incurred by any such person in defending any such action, suit or proceeding shall be paid or reimbursed by the Corporation promptly upon receipt by it of an undertaking of such person to repay such expenses if it shall ultimately be determined that such person is not entitled to be indemnified by the Corporation.

ARTICLE II

Scope of Agreement

2.1. Scope of Agreement. Xxxxxx and the Company desire to set forth in this Agreement certain terms and conditions upon which Xxxxxx will hold its equity interests in the Company, including but not limited its rights as a holder of Class B Common Stock. Solely with respect to Xxxxxx’ rights as a holder of Class B Common Stock, if there is any inconsistency between the terms of this Agreement and the Governing Instruments as a result of any amendment of this Agreement or otherwise, the parties agree to take promptly all necessary action to amend the Governing Instruments to eliminate such inconsistency to the fullest extent permitted by Law.

2.2. Governing Instruments and Class B Common Stock. On or prior to the execution and delivery of this Agreement, Xxxxxx and Stratex have caused the Company to be incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware with Governing Instruments in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A and Exhibit B. As of the date of this Agreement, Xxxxxx owns, directly or indirectly through its Affiliates, all the outstanding Class B Common Stock and the shareholders of Stratex immediately prior to the Effective Time own all the outstanding Class A Common Stock. Pursuant to the Governing Instruments, the rights and privileges of the Class A Common Stock and the Class B Common Stock are identical in all respects except that the holders of the Class B Common Stock have the additional right to vote separately as a class to elect, remove and replace the Class B Directors (the “Additional Voting Rights”), the right to receive Class B Common Stock instead of Class A Common Stock in certain circumstances, the absence of certain duties and obligations with respect to Corporate Opportunities (as defined in the Governing Instruments) and preemptive rights consistent with those granted in Section 4.5 hereof. The holders of Class B Common Stock also have the right at any time to exchange (a) any outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock held by such holder for an equal number of shares of Class B Common Stock or (b) any outstanding shares of Class B Common Stock for an equal number of shares of Class A Common Stock, in each case as provided in the Governing Instruments. Each outstanding share of Class B Common Stock shall convert into one outstanding share of Class A Common Stock automatically and without any further action by the Company or any other Person if: (i) the holders of all of the outstanding shares of Class B Common Stock (assuming that all the outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock which are then exchangeable for Class B Common Stock have been so exchanged) are collectively entitled to cast less than 10% of the Total Voting Power or (ii) such Class B Common Stock is transferred by a holder to any Person who is not an Affiliate of such holder or a Nominee of such holder or one of its Affiliates; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing no such conversion shall occur if such transfer is part of a transfer by such holder and its Affiliates of all of the shares of Class B Common Stock then owned by them (either directly or through a Nominee (as defined below)) to any other Person or to any other Person and its Affiliates. As of the date of this Agreement, the Class B Common Stock represents 56 % of the outstanding Common Stock determined on a fully diluted basis using the treasury stock method assuming a market price per share of Class A Common Stock equal to $20.80.

Of the Initial Xxxxxx Directors, ____________ is an Audit Independent Director, ____________ is not an employee of Xxxxxx or any of its Subsidiaries and ____________ is the chief executive officer of the Company, in each case as of the date of this Agreement. Of the Initial Stratex Directors, ____________ and ____________ are Audit Independent Directors and ____________ is the Chairman of the Board, in each case as of the date of this Agreement. All Directors shall be elected at each annual meeting of the Company’s shareholders and the Initial Directors shall serve until their successors are elected at the first such annual meeting. Until the second anniversary of the date of this Agreement, one of the Class B Directors must be an Audit Independent Director and one of the other Class B Directors must not be an employee of Xxxxxx or any of its Subsidiaries.

(b) At all times when the holders of all the outstanding shares of Class B Common Stock (assuming that all the outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock which are then exchangeable for Class B Common Stock have been so exchanged) are collectively entitled to cast a majority of the Total Voting Power, (i) the Company will rely on the Controlled Company exemption contained in Rule 4350(c)(5) of the NASDAQ Rules, (ii) the Board will be comprised of nine Directors, (iii) the holders of Class B Common Stock shall be entitled to elect five of the Directors pursuant to the Additional Voting Rights and the quorum for action by the Board shall be a majority of the Board, which majority shall include at least four Class B Directors and (iv) the remaining four Directors will be Class A Directors nominated by a nominating committee consisting solely of the Class A Directors then in office (the “Nominating Committee”), and elected by the holders of the Common Stock, voting together as a single class; provided, however, that at all times when Rule 4350(d)(2)(A) of the NASDAQ Rules applies to the Company a sufficient number of the Class A Directors must satisfy the requirements of that Rule with respect to the Company so that, together with any Class B Directors which are required or otherwise satisfy such requirements with respect to the Company, there are enough Directors to constitute an audit committee of the Board which complies with the requirements of Rule 4350(d) of the NASDAQ Rules. Xxxxxx agrees to vote, or caused to be voted, all Voting Securities owned by it, its Affiliates and their respective Nominees in favor of the election of the Class A Directors nominated by the Nominating Committee pursuant to this Section 3.1(b).

(c) At all times when the holders of all of the outstanding shares of Class B Common Stock (assuming that all the outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock which are then exchangeable for Class B Common Stock have been so exchanged) are collectively entitled to cast a percentage of the Total Voting Power (the “Voting Percentage”) which is less than a majority but equal to or greater than 10% of the Total Voting Power (i) the Class B Common Stock shall be entitled to elect pursuant to the Additional Voting Rights a number of Class B Directors which represents the Voting Percentage of the total number of Directors then comprising the entire Board (rounded down to the next whole number of Directors), and (ii) the remaining Directors will be Class A Directors nominated by the Nominating Committee (the composition of which shall comply with the requirements of Rule 4350(c)(4) of the NASDAQ

-6-

Rules) and elected by the holders of the Common Stock, voting together as a single class; provided, however, that at all times when such rules apply to the Company a sufficient number of the Class A Directors must (A) qualify as an Independent Director with respect to the Company as such term is defined in Rule 4200(15) of the NASDAQ Rules so that Board complies with Rule 4350(c)(1) of the NASD Rules and (B) satisfy the requirements of Rule 4350(d)(2)(A) of the NASDAQ Rules with respect to the Company so that, together with any Class B Directors which are required to or otherwise satisfy such requirements with respect to the Company, there are enough Directors to constitute an audit committee which complies with the requirements of Rule 4350(d) of the NASDAQ Rules. The Nominating Committee will nominate individuals for election as Class A Directors who comply with the foregoing requirements and Xxxxxx agrees to vote, or cause to be voted, all Voting Securities owned by it, its Affiliates and their respective Nominees in favor of the election of such nominees.

3.2. Removal and Vacancies. (a) Without limiting Xxxxxx’ obligations under Section 3.1(a), the holders of the Class B Common Stock, voting separately as a class, shall have the sole right to remove the Class B Directors with or without cause at any time and for any reason and the sole right to elect successor Directors to fill any vacancies on the Board caused by any such removals. Any vacancy created by any resignation, death or incapacity of any Class B Director shall be filled by the remaining Class B Directors then in office or, if there are none, by the holders of the Class B Common Stock, voting separately as a class.

(b) The holders of the Class A Common Stock, voting separately as a class, shall have the sole right to remove the Class A Directors without cause and the sole right to appoint successor Directors to fill any vacancies on the Board caused by any such removals. Any vacancy created by the resignation, death or incapacity of any Class A Director shall be filled by the remaining Class A Directors then in office or, if there are none, by the holders of the Class A Common Stock, voting separately as a class. Xxxxxx agrees that none of the shares of Class A Common Stock owned by it, any of its Affiliates or any of their respective Nominees will be voted for the removal of any Class A Director without cause and all such shares will be voted for the election of the individual nominated by the Nominating Committee to replace any Class A Director who has been removed with or without cause.

(c) The holders of the Common Stock, voting together as a single class, shall have the sole right to remove the Class A Directors for cause and the sole right to elect successor Directors to fill any vacancies on the Board caused by any such removals.

3.3. Committees. At all times, the audit, nominating and compensation committees of the Board shall comply with the applicable requirements of Rule 4350 of the NASDAQ Rules (after taking advantage of all available exemptions for Controlled Companies under such Rules).

3.4. Voting Requirements. All actions of the Board must be approved by a majority of a quorum.

3.5. Determination of Total Voting Power. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, if any transaction or transactions occur which entitle the holders of Class B Common Stock to preemptive rights under Section 4.5, then no determination of the

-7-

percentage of the Total Voting Power collectively entitled to be cast by the holders of all the outstanding shares of Class B Common Stock (assuming that all the outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock which are then exchangeable for Class B Common Stock have been so exchanged) shall be made for any purpose under this Agreement until after the exercise or expiration of all such preemptive rights in respect of all such transactions by such holders.

ARTICLE IV

Covenants

4.1. Standstill Provisions. For a period of two years from the Closing Date, Xxxxxx may not acquire or dispose of beneficial ownership of any Voting Securities of the Company through open-market transactions, third party purchases, business combinations or otherwise except (i) pursuant to Section 4.5, (ii) as a result of any actions taken by the Company that do not increase or decrease the percentage of Voting Power which Xxxxxx and its Affiliates are entitled to cast in respect of all Voting Securities beneficially owned by Xxxxxx or (iii) with the prior approval of a majority of the Class A Directors. From the second to the fourth anniversary of the Closing Date, Xxxxxx may not beneficially own Voting Securities which entitle Xxxxxx and its Affiliates to cast more than 80% of the Voting Power without the prior approval of a majority of the Class A Directors. From the second until the fourth anniversary of the Closing Date, Xxxxxx may not Transfer Voting Securities entitled to cast a majority of the Voting Power in a single transaction or series of related transactions if a single Person would acquire beneficial ownership of all of such Voting Securities or a portion of such Voting Securities that would entitle such Person to cast a majority of the Total Voting Power unless (i) such Transfer is approved in advance by a majority of the Class A Directors or (ii) such Person offers to acquire all the Voting Securities then owned by each other holder of Voting Securities at the same price and on the same terms and conditions as apply to the Transfer from Xxxxxx. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 4.1 shall prohibit or restrict any pro rata dividend or other pro rata distributions of Voting Securities to Xxxxxx’ shareholders or any bona fide sale to the public of Voting Securities pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act or a bona fide registered public offering. For all purposes of this Agreement, Xxxxxx shall be deemed to beneficially own all Voting Securities beneficially owned by any of its Affiliates.

4.2. Access to Information, Audit and Inspection. As long as Xxxxxx continues to beneficially own Voting Securities that entitle it to cast at least 20% of the Total Voting Power:

(a) Xxxxxx and its Representatives shall have (and the Company shall cause its Subsidiaries to provide Xxxxxx and its Representatives with) full access at reasonable times and during normal business hours to all the books and records of the Company and its Subsidiaries and their respective businesses (including those books and records pertaining to periods prior to the Closing Date), including the right to examine and audit any of such books and records and to make copies and extracts therefrom. Xxxxxx shall bear all expenses incurred by it or its Representatives in making any such examination or audit and will reimburse the Company for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by it or its Subsidiaries in connection therewith. The Company shall, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to, make arrangements for Xxxxxx and its Representatives to have prompt access at reasonable times and during normal business hours to

-8-

its officers, directors and employees to discuss the business and affairs of the Company and its Subsidiaries and the books and records pertaining thereto. The provisions of this Section 4.2(a) shall continue to apply to the Company and its Subsidiaries and be enforceable by Xxxxxx after Xxxxxx ceases to beneficially own any Voting Securities of the Company or Voting Securities of the Company that entitle it to cast at least 20% of the Voting Power, but only to the extent, in each case, that such books and records and such access to officers, directors and other employees are reasonably requested by Xxxxxx in connection with any pending or threatened Litigation, proceeding or investigation involving Xxxxxx or any of its Affiliates insofar as such matter relates to the business or affairs of the Company or such Subsidiary (including any matters relating to the business and affairs of any predecessor businesses, including relating to periods prior to the Closing Date).

(b) The Company shall provide Xxxxxx with copies of each completed tax return required to be filed by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries by applicable Law (each, a “Tax Return”) at least 20 Business Days prior to the due date (including any extensions of such due date) of the filing of such Tax Return, and Xxxxxx may review such Tax Return prior to its filing with the appropriate Government Entity. The Company shall consult with Xxxxxx and negotiate in good faith to resolve any issues arising as a result of the Xxxxxx’ review of such Tax Return. Xxxxxx, the Company and its Subsidiaries shall use all reasonable good faith efforts to resolve any issue in dispute as promptly as possible, but in any event prior to the due date for the filing of such Tax Return. In the event an issue resulting from the review by Xxxxxx of such Tax Return remains in dispute as of the due date for the filing of such Tax Return, the Tax Return shall be filed with the appropriate Government Entity in accordance with the recommendation of the Company’s external tax advisors.

4.3. Related Party Transactions. Xxxxxx will not, and will not permit any of its Affiliates to, directly or indirectly, enter into any transaction or series of related transactions (including any Transfer of any assets or the provision of any goods or services) with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (each, an “Affiliate Transaction”) unless (i) such Affiliate Transaction is on Arm’s Length Terms and (ii) if the Affiliate Transaction has a Fair Market Value of more than $5 million, such Affiliate Transaction shall have been approved in advance by a majority of the Class A Directors. The foregoing shall not apply to:

(i) any issuance of securities to, or other payments, awards or grants of in cash, securities or otherwise pursuant to, or the funding of, employment arrangements, employee benefits, stock options and stock ownership plans approved by the Board,

(ii) the payment of reasonable and customary fees to Directors who are not employees of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries,

(iii) indemnification or insurance arrangements covering directors and officers of the Company and its Subsidiaries, and

(iv) any payments or other transactions pursuant to any tax-sharing agreement between the Company and any other Person with which the Company

-9-

files a consolidated tax return or with which the Company is part of a consolidated group for tax purposes.

4.4. Freedom of Action. (a) Nothing in this Section 4.4 will impair the Company’s ability to enter into contractual arrangements with a shareholder of the Company which restrict the shareholder from engaging in activities otherwise allowed by this Section and the following provisions shall be subject to the terms of any such contractual arrangements.

(b) Except as expressly provided in the Non-Competition Agreement, dated as of the date hereof, among the Company, Xxxxxx and Stratex (the “Non-Competition Agreement”) or the proviso at the end of Section 4.4(c), Xxxxxx and its Affiliates shall have the right to, and none of them shall have any fiduciary duty or other obligation to the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any of their shareholders not to, take any of the following actions:

(i) engage in the same or similar activities or lines of business as the Company or any Subsidiary or develop or market any products or services that compete, directly or indirectly, with those of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries;

(ii) invest or own any interest in, or develop a business relationship with, any Person engaged in the same or similar activities or lines of business as, or otherwise in competition with, the Company or any of its Subsidiaries;

(iii) do business with any client or customer of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries; or

(iv) employ or otherwise engage any former officer or employee of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries.

(c) Neither Xxxxxx nor any of its Affiliates nor any officer, director, employee or former employee of Xxxxxx or any of its Affiliates that is not currently an employee of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (including any Class B Directors) shall have any obligation, or be liable, to the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any of their shareholders for or arising out of the conduct described in Section 4.4(b) or the exercise of Xxxxxx’ rights under any of the Agreements and none of them shall be deemed to have acted (i) in bad faith, (ii) in a manner inconsistent with the best interests of the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any of their shareholders or (iii) in a manner inconsistent with, or opposed to, any fiduciary duty owed by them to the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any of their shareholders by reason of any such conduct or exercise of such rights or any of their participation therein. If Xxxxxx or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their directors, officers or employees, including any such individuals who are also directors, officers or employees of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, (collectively, the “Xxxxxx Entities”) acquires knowledge of a potential opportunity, transaction or matter which may be a corporate opportunity for both Xxxxxx or any of its Subsidiaries, on the one hand, and the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, on the other hand, (each, a “Corporate Opportunity”), then each of the Xxxxxx Entities shall have the right to, and none of them shall have any fiduciary duty or other obligation not to, pursue such Corporate Opportunity for itself or to direct such Corporate Opportunity to any of its Affiliates or to any third party and none of the Xxxxxx Entities

(i) shall have any duty to communicate, offer or present such Corporate Opportunity to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, directors, officers or employees, (ii) shall have any liability to the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any of their shareholders for breach of any fiduciary duty or other duty, as a shareholder, director, officer or employee of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or otherwise, (iii) shall be deemed to have acted (x) in bad faith, (y) in a manner inconsistent with the best interests of the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any of their shareholders or (z) in a manner inconsistent with, or opposed to, any fiduciary duty owed by them to the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any of their shareholders, in each case by reason of the fact that any Xxxxxx Entity pursues or acquires such Corporate Opportunity for itself, directs such Corporate Opportunity to any of its Affiliates or any third party, or does not communicate information regarding such Corporate Opportunity to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, directors, officers or employees; provided, however, that notwithstanding anything in this Section 4.4 to the contrary a Corporate Opportunity offered to a person who is a director or officer of both the Company and Xxxxxx shall belong to the Company if such Corporate Opportunity is expressly offered to such person in writing solely in his or her capacity as a director or officer of the Company.

(d) The provisions of this Section 4.4 shall be effective to the maximum extent permitted by Law and are not intended to be enforceable to any further extent.

4.5. Preemptive Right. (a) If the Company proposes to issue (a “Proposed Issuance”) any capital stock of the Company or any securities convertible into, or exercisable or exchangeable for, such capital stock (collectively, the “Offered Securities”) at any time when the holders of all the outstanding shares of Class B Common Stock (assuming that all the outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock which are then exchangeable for Class B Common Stock have been so exchanged) are collectively entitled to cast a majority of the Total Voting Power, the Company shall give written notice of the Proposed Issuance to the holders of Class B Common Stock (the “Offer Notice”) at least 30 days prior to such issuance. Such notice shall describe all the material terms and conditions of such Proposed Issuance. Each holder of Class B Common Stock shall have the right to acquire at the same price and on the same terms and conditions, an additional amount of the Offered Securities so that the percentage of the outstanding Common Stock and Total Voting Power then owned by such holder shall not change as a result of such acquisition and Proposed Issuance; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing (i) such holder may elect to acquire a lesser number of additional Offered Securities as it may determine in its sole discretion and (ii) if the Offered Securities are, or are convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for, Class A Common Stock, then in lieu thereof such holder shall be entitled to purchase Class B Common Stock or Offered Securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Class B Common Stock, as applicable. If any holder of Class B Common Stock fails to accept such offer by written notice received by the Company within fifteen (15) days following the date on which such holder received the Offer Notice, the Proposed Issuance may be consummated free and clear of the preemptive right granted to the holders of Class B Common Stock under this Section 4.5. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the purchase price for any Proposed Issuance is to be paid in whole or in part other than in cash, then the holders of Class B Common Stock may pay the purchase price in cash in an amount per Offered Security equal to the fair market value of the aggregate non-cash consideration so payable, as reasonably determined in good faith by the Board, divided by the

-11-

total number of Offered Securities to be issued without giving effect to the preemptive right granted by this Section 4.5.

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the preemptive right granted by this Section 4.5 shall not apply to any Proposed Issuance pursuant to any stock option, restricted stock or employee benefit plan of the Company; provided, however, at the end of each month the Company shall give the holders of Class B Common Stock written notice of all such Proposed Issuances during such month (the “Monthly Offer Notice”) and each holder of Class B Common Stock shall have the right, exercisable by delivering written notice to the Company (each, a “Monthly Exercise Notice”) within fifteen days after the date on which such holder received the Monthly Offer Notice, to purchase for cash a sufficient number of shares of Class B Common Stock so that the percentage of the outstanding Common Stock and Total Voting Power then owned by such holder shall not change as a result of such acquisition and Proposed Issuances; provided, however, that such holder may elect to acquire a lesser number of such shares of Class B Common Stock as it may determine it its sole discretion. The per share purchase price for any purchase of Class B Common Stock pursuant to a Monthly Exercise Notice shall be (i) if the Class A Common Stock is then listed on a national securities exchange or quoted on an automated inter-dealer quotation system, the closing price of the Class A Common Stock on the trading day immediately preceding the date on which the Company received the Monthly Exercise Notice or (ii) in all other cases, the fair market value of one share of Class A Common Stock as determined in good faith by the Board.

4.6. Covenants Relating to Financial, Accounting and Disclosure Matters. (a) The Company agrees to comply with the requirements of all of the following paragraphs of this Section 4.6 other than paragraph (m) at all times when Xxxxxx is required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) to consolidate the Company or any of its Subsidiaries. The Company agrees to comply with the requirements of paragraphs (d), (e), (f), (j), (m) and (n) of this Section 4.6 at all time when Xxxxxx is required by GAAP to account for its investment in the Company or any of its Subsidiaries under the equity method of accounting.

(b) Disclosure and Internal Controls. The Company will (and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to) maintain effective disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rule 13a-15 under the Exchange Act or any similar or successor rule applicable to Xxxxxx. The Company shall cause each of its principal executive and principal financial officers to (i) sign and deliver certifications to its periodic reports and shall include the certifications in its periodic reports, as and when required pursuant to Exchange Act Rule 13a-14 and Item 601 of Regulation S-K or any similar or successor rule applicable to Xxxxxx and (ii) sign and deliver to Xxxxxx such certification and representation documents, and to participate in discussions of related matters, with respect to Xxxxxx’ periodic reports under the Exchange Act as Xxxxxx may reasonably request. The Company shall cause its management to evaluate its disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting (including any change in internal control over financial reporting) as and when required pursuant to Exchange Act Rule 13a-15 or any similar or successor rule applicable to Xxxxxx. The Company shall disclose in its periodic reports filed with the SEC information concerning its management’s responsibilities for and evaluation of its disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting (including the annual management report and attestation report of its independent auditors relating to internal control over financial reporting) as and

-12-

when required under Items 307 and 308 of Regulation S-K and other applicable SEC rules. Without limiting the general application of the foregoing, the Company shall (and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to) maintain internal systems and procedures which provide reasonable assurance that (i) its financial statements are reliable and timely prepared in accordance with GAAP and applicable Law, (ii) all transactions of the Company and its Subsidiaries are recorded as necessary to permit the preparation of their respective financial statements, (iii) the receipts and expenditures of the Company and its Subsidiaries are authorized at the appropriate internal level, and (iv) unauthorized use or disposition of the assets of any the Company or any of its Subsidiaries that could have material effect on their financial statements is prevented or detected in a timely manner. The Company shall report in reasonable detail to Xxxxxx any of the following events or circumstances promptly after any executive officer of the Company or any Director becomes aware of such matter: (i) any significant deficiency or material weakness in the design or operation of internal control over financial reporting that is reasonably likely to adversely affect the Company’s or any of its Subsidiaries ability to record, process, summarize and report financial information, (ii) any fraud, whether or not material, that involves management or other employees who have a significant role in the internal control over financial reporting of the Company and its Subsidiaries, (iii) any illegal act within the meaning of Section 10A(b) and (f) of the Exchange Act, and (iv) any report of a material violation of Law that an attorney representing the Company or any of its Subsidiaries has formally made to any officers or directors of the Company pursuant to the SEC’s attorney conduct rules (17 C.F.R. Part 205).

(c) Fiscal Year, Fiscal Quarter and Fiscal Monthly Accounting Periods. The Company shall (and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to) maintain the same fiscal year, fiscal quarter and fiscal monthly accounting periods as Xxxxxx as they may change from time to time.

(d) Quarterly and Annual Information. The Company shall cooperate with Xxxxxx and use its commercially reasonable efforts to deliver to Xxxxxx consolidated quarterly and annual financial statements of the Company by such dates as Xxxxxx shall reasonably determine in order to give Xxxxxx reasonable time to review and include such information in its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q or Annual Report on Form 10-K, as applicable. The Company hereby acknowledges that Xxxxxx’ internal policies and procedures will impose certain requirements on its divisions and subsidiaries with respect to the type and format of financial information provided to Xxxxxx’ management at the end of each fiscal quarter and fiscal year end and that Xxxxxx currently requires such information to be so provided no later than the eighth (8th) Business Day following the end of each fiscal quarter and fiscal year end. The Company acknowledges that Xxxxxx is a Large Accelerated Filer (as such term is defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act) and is required to file its Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and Annual Reports on Form 10-K with the SEC on an accelerated basis and must make file such reports with the SEC before the Company is currently required to file its Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q or Annual Reports on Form 10-K or may be required to file such reports in the future. Senior employees of the Company and Xxxxxx with responsibility for preparation and review of SEC filings will actively consult with each other regarding the details of the Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and Annual Reports on Form 10-K to be filed by the Company and in particular review any changes (whether or not substantive) that the Company is considering or plans to make to the most recent draft provided to Xxxxxx before such documents are filed with the SEC.

-13-

(e) Other SEC Filings. Each of the Company and each of its Subsidiaries which files any information with the SEC (each, a “Filing Party”) shall promptly deliver to Xxxxxx: preliminary and substantially final drafts, as soon as the same are prepared, of (i) all reports, notices and proxy and information statements to be sent or made available by such Filing Party to its security holders, (ii) all regular, periodic and other reports (other than those on Form 10-K or Form 10-Q) to be filed or furnished by such Filing Party under Sections 13, 14 and 15 of the Exchange Act, and (iii) all registration statements and prospectuses to be filed by such Filing Party with the SEC or any securities exchange pursuant to the listed company manual (or similar requirements) of such exchange. Thereafter, senior employees of the Company and Xxxxxx with responsibility for preparation and review of SEC filings will actively consult with each other regarding any changes (whether or not substantive) that the Company may consider making to such documents before they are filed with, or furnished to, the SEC.

(f) Earnings Releases and Financial Guidance. Senior employees from the Company and Xxxxxx with responsibility for such matters shall consult with each other as to the timing of their annual and quarterly earnings releases and any interim financial guidance for a current or future period and the Company shall give Xxxxxx the opportunity to review and comment on the information contained in such releases or guidance. The Company shall make reasonable efforts to issue its respective annual and quarterly earnings releases at approximately the same time on the same date as Xxxxxx. No later than eight hours prior to the time and date (or, if the same will be published before noon, no later than 5 p.m. Melbourne, Florida time on the previous Business Day) on which the Company intends to publish its regular annual or quarterly earnings release, any financial guidance for a current or future period or any other matters that could be reasonably likely to have a material financial impact on the earnings, results of operations, financial condition or prospects of the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to deliver to Xxxxxx copies of substantially final drafts of all press releases and other statements relating thereto which will be made available by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to employees or public and senior employees with responsibility for such maters shall consult regarding any changes (other than typographical or other similar minor changes) to such substantially final drafts. Immediately following the issuance thereof, the Company shall deliver to Xxxxxx copies of final versions of all such press releases and other public statements.

(g) Xxxxxx Public Filings. The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate and to cause its auditors to cooperate with Xxxxxx to the extent reasonably requested by Xxxxxx in the preparation of Xxxxxx public earnings or other press releases, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, Annual Reports to Shareholders, Annual Reports on Form 10-K, Current Reports on Form 8-K and any other proxy, information and registration statements, reports, notices, prospectuses and any other filings made by Xxxxxx with the SEC or any national securities exchange or otherwise made publicly available by or on behalf of Xxxxxx (collectively, the “Xxxxxx Public Filings”) and Xxxxxx shall reimburse the Company for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries in connection therewith. The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide to Xxxxxx all information Xxxxxx reasonably requests in connection with any Xxxxxx Public Filings or that, in the reasonable judgment of legal advisors to Xxxxxx, is required to be disclosed or incorporated by reference therein under applicable Law. The Company shall provide such information in a timely manner on the dates requested by Xxxxxx (which may be earlier than the dates on which the Company

-14-

otherwise would be required hereunder to have such information available) to enable Xxxxxx to prepare, print and release all Xxxxxx Public Filings on such dates as Xxxxxx shall reasonably determine but in no event later than as required by applicable Law. The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Company Auditors to consent to any reference to them as experts in any Xxxxxx Public Filings if required under applicable Law. If and to the extent requested by Xxxxxx, the Company shall diligently and promptly review all drafts of such Xxxxxx Public Filings and prepare in a diligent and timely fashion any portion of such Xxxxxx Public Filing pertaining to the Company. Prior to any printing or public release of any Xxxxxx Public Filing, an appropriate executive officer of the Company shall, if requested by Xxxxxx, certify that the information relating to the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any of their businesses in such Xxxxxx Public Filing is accurate, true, complete and correct in all material respects. Unless required by Law, the Company shall not publicly release any financial or other information that conflicts with the information with respect to the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective businesses that is included in any Xxxxxx Public Filing without Xxxxxx’ prior written consent. Prior to the release or filing thereof, Xxxxxx shall provide the Company with a draft of any portion of a Xxxxxx Public Filing containing information relating to the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any of their businesses and shall give the Company an opportunity to review such information and comment thereon.

(h) Company Disclosures. Nothing in Section 4.6(d), Section 4.6(e), Section 4.6(f) or Section 4.6(n) shall prevent or otherwise limit the ability of the Company to make any disclosure which the Company reasonably believes is necessary to comply with applicable Law, including any changes to drafts previously furnished to Xxxxxx. Nothing in Section 4.6(d), Section 4.6(e), Section 4.6(f) or Section 4.6(n) shall prevent or otherwise limit the ability of Xxxxxx to make any disclosure which Xxxxxx reasonably believes is necessary to comply with applicable Law, including any changes to drafts previously furnished to the Company.

(i) Consistency of Accounting Principles, Policies and Practices. All information to be provided to Xxxxxx by, or with respect to, the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or controlled Affiliates pursuant to this Agreement shall be consistent in terms of format, detail and otherwise with the accounting principles, policies and practices of Xxxxxx, with such changes therein as may be requested by Xxxxxx from time to time consistent with changes in such accounting principles, policies and practices. Subject to the foregoing, the Company shall give Xxxxxx as much prior notice as reasonably practicable of any proposed determination of, or any significant changes in, the Company’s accounting estimates or accounting principles. Senior employees of Xxxxxx and the Company with responsibility for accounting and financial reporting shall consult with each other (and their respective auditors, if requested) with respect to any such proposed determination or change. Unless otherwise required by applicable Law, the Company shall not make any such determination or changes without the prior written consent of Xxxxxx if such a determination or change would be sufficiently material to be required to be disclosed in financial statements or other disclosure documents filed by the Company or Xxxxxx with the SEC.

(j) Auditors. Ernst & Young shall initially serve as the independent certified public accountants of the Company and its Subsidiaries (the “Company Auditors”). The Company shall thereafter maintain as the Company Auditors the same firm (and its affiliated firms) as Xxxxxx appoints to act as the independent certified public accountants for Xxxxxx and its Subsidiaries, unless and until the audit committee of the Company determines in good faith that

-15-

it is required by Law or that it is in the best interest of the stockholders of the Company to appoint a different independent certified public accountant for the Company than that appointed by Xxxxxx for Xxxxxx and its Subsidiaries. The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to enable the Company Auditors to complete their audit such that they may date their opinion on the audited financial statements of the Company (the “Annual Financial Statements”) on the same date that Xxxxxx’ independent certified public accountants (the “Xxxxxx Auditors”) date their opinion on the audited annual financial statements of Xxxxxx (the “Xxxxxx Annual Statements”) and to enable Xxxxxx to meet its timetable for the printing, filing and public dissemination of the Xxxxxx Annual Statements, all in accordance with this Agreement and as required by applicable Law. The Company shall request that the Company Auditors date their opinion on the Annual Financial Statements on the same date that the Xxxxxx Auditors date their opinion on the Xxxxxx Annual Statements. The Company shall provide to Xxxxxx on a timely basis all information Xxxxxx reasonably requires to meet its schedule for the preparation, printing, filing and public dissemination of the Xxxxxx Annual Statements in accordance with this Agreement and as required by applicable Law. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company shall provide all required financial information with respect to the Company and its Subsidiaries to the Company Auditors in a sufficient and reasonable time and in sufficient detail to permit the Company Auditors to take all steps and perform all reviews necessary to provide sufficient assistance to Xxxxxx Auditors with respect to information to be included or contained in the Xxxxxx Annual Statements. The Company shall authorize the Company Auditors to make available to the Xxxxxx Auditors both the personnel who performed, or are performing, the annual audit of the Company and work papers related to the annual audit of the Company, in all cases within a reasonable time prior to the opinion date for the Company Auditors, so that the Xxxxxx Auditors are able to perform the procedures they consider necessary to take responsibility for the work of the Company Auditors as it relates to the report of the Xxxxxx Auditors on the Xxxxxx financial statements, all within sufficient time to enable Xxxxxx to meet its timetable for the printing, filing and public dissemination of the Xxxxxx Annual Statements.

(k) Inaccuracies. If Xxxxxx determines in good faith that there may be an inaccuracy in any financial statements of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or any deficiency in the internal accounting controls or operations of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries that could materially impact Xxxxxx’ financial statements, then upon request the Company shall provide to Xxxxxx’ internal auditors access to the books and records of Xxxxxx and its Subsidiaries so that Xxxxxx may conduct reasonable audits relating to the financial statements provided by the Company under this Agreement as well as to the internal accounting controls and operations of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries. Xxxxxx shall be responsible for the fees and expense of its internal auditors in connection with such audits but shall not be required to reimburse the Company for any expenses incurred by the Company and its Subsidiaries in connection therewith.

(l) Information for Equity Accounting Periods. The Company shall provide to Xxxxxx on a timely basis all information Xxxxxx reasonably requires to meet its schedule for the preparation, printing, filing and public dissemination of the Xxxxxx Annual Statements in accordance with this Agreement and as required by applicable Law, and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company shall provide all required financial information with respect to the Company and its Subsidiaries to the Company Auditors in a sufficient and reasonable time and in sufficient detail to permit the Company Auditors to take all steps and

-16-

perform all reviews necessary to provide sufficient assistance to Xxxxxx Auditors with respect to information to be included or contained in the Xxxxxx Annual Statements.

(m) Certifications. The Company shall provide to Xxxxxx certifications from appropriate employees of the Company, at the times and in form and substance reasonably requested by Xxxxxx, to provide backup support for any certifications by any officers of Xxxxxx which are required to be included as part of, or as an exhibit to, any report filed by Xxxxxx under the Exchange Act pursuant to Rule 13a-14 under the Exchange Act, Item 601 of Regulation S-K or any successor or additional rule or regulation; provided, however, that such employees need only provide such certifications to the extent they believe they accurately characterize the matters described therein.

(n) Nonpublic Information. Each party recognizes that information shared pursuant to this Article IV may constitute material nonpublic inside information, and will use commercially reasonable efforts (i) to treat such material nonpublic information as confidential, (ii) in the case of Stratex only, not to disclose it to any Person who is not an employee or director of such party or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their advisers who need to know such information for purposes of carrying out the provisions of this Section 4.6. and (iii) in the case of Xxxxxx only, not to disclose it to any Person who is not an employee or director of such party or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their advisers who need to know such information for purposes of advising Xxxxxx with respect to its investment in the Company or carrying out the provisions of this Section 4.6.

4.7. Option Exercise. If and to the extent the Company shall determine to use the proceeds from the exercise of any options to acquire Common Stock to repurchase shares of Class A Common Stock in the market at the then prevailing market price, at the request of Xxxxxx or otherwise, such determination or repurchase shall not be deemed to be an Affiliate Transaction or a breach by Xxxxxx or any Class B Director of any duty or obligation they may have to the Company or its stockholders.

ARTICLE V

Miscellaneous

5.1. Termination. This Agreement shall terminate at the first time at which the Total Voting Power of Voting Securities owned by Xxxxxx, its Affiliates and their respective Nominees collectively represent less than 10% of the Total Voting Power.

5.2. Governing Law and Venue; Waiver Of Jury Trial. (a) THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE DEEMED TO BE MADE IN AND IN ALL RESPECTS SHALL BE INTERPRETED, CONSTRUED AND GOVERNED BY AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAW OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE WITHOUT REGARD TO THE CONFLICT OF LAW PRINCIPLES THEREOF. The parties hereby irrevocably submit to the jurisdiction of the courts of the State of Delaware and the Federal courts of the United States of America located in the State of Delaware (collectively, the “Delaware Courts”) solely in respect of the interpretation and enforcement of the provisions of this Agreement and of the documents referred to in this Agreement, and in respect of the

-17-

transactions contemplated hereby, and hereby waive, and agree not to assert, as a defense in any action, suit or proceeding for the interpretation or enforcement hereof or of any such document, that it is not subject thereto or that such action, suit or proceeding may not be brought or is not maintainable in any Delaware Court or that the venue thereof may not be appropriate or that this Agreement or any such document may not be enforced in or by such courts, and the parties hereto irrevocably agree that all claims with respect to such action or proceeding shall be heard and determined in any Delaware Court; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing each party agrees that any claim which primarily seeks injunctive relief and related monetary claims that cannot be brought in any Delaware Court for jurisdiction reasons may be commenced, heard and determined in any other court having proper jurisdiction over such claim. The parties hereby consent to and grant any Delaware Court jurisdiction over the person of such parties and, to the extent permitted by law, over the subject matter of such dispute and agree that mailing of process or other papers in connection with any such action or proceeding in the manner provided in Section 5.6 or in such other manner as may be permitted by law shall be valid and sufficient service thereof.

5.3. Severability. If any provision of this Agreement shall be held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, that provision will be enforced to the maximum extent permissible so as to effect the intent of the parties, and the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby. If necessary to effect the intent of the parties, the parties will negotiate in good faith to amend this Agreement to replace the unenforceable language with enforceable language which as closely as possible reflects such intent.

5.4. Amendment; Waiver. This Agreement may be amended or any performance, term or condition waived in whole or in part only by a writing signed by persons authorized to so bind each party (in the case of an amendment) or the waiving party (in the case of a waiver). Any such amendment or waiver by the Company shall require the prior approval of a majority of the Class A Directors. No failure or delay by any party to take any action with respect to a breach by another party of this Agreement or a default by another party hereunder shall constitute a waiver of the former party’s right to enforce any provision of this Agreement or

-18-

to take action with respect to such breach or default or any subsequent breach or default. Waiver by any party of any breach or failure to comply with any provision of this Agreement by another party shall not be construed as, or constitute, a continuing wavier of such provisions, or a waiver of any other breach of or failure to comply with any other provisions of this Agreement.

5.5. Assignment. Xxxxxx shall be entitled to assign all of its rights and obligations under this Agreement to any Person to whom it transfers all of the ownership interests in the Company then owned by Xxxxxx and its Affiliates if such Person delivers a written undertaking to the Company in which such Person expressly assumes all of Xxxxxx’ obligations under this Agreement, and from and after such a transfer all references herein to Xxxxxx shall be deemed to be references to such Person. Except as provided in the immediately preceding sentence, no party may assign this Agreement or any rights, benefits, obligations or remedies hereunder without the prior written consent of the other party hereto, except that no such consent shall be required for a transfer by operation of Law in connection with a merger or consolidation of such party. Any attempt so to assign or to delegate any of the foregoing without such consent shall be void and of no effect. This Agreement shall be binding upon, inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by and against the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns. All certificates representing shares subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall bear an appropriate legend with respect thereto.

5.6. No Third-Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement is intended to be for the sole and exclusive benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns. Nothing contained in this Agreement is intended or shall be construed to give any other Person any legal or equitable right, remedy, or claim under or in respect to this Agreement or any provision herein contained.

5.7. Notices. Any notice, request, instruction or other document to be given hereunder by any party to the others shall be in writing and delivered personally or sent by registered or certified mail or by overnight courier, postage prepaid, or by facsimile:

5.8. Entire Agreement. This Agreement, the Non-Competition Agreement, the Registration Rights Agreement, dated as of the date hereof, between Xxxxxx and the Company and, solely with respect to the defined terms therein which are incorporated by reference herein, the Formation Agreement between Harris and Stratex constitute the entire and only agreements between the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and thereof and any and all prior arrangements, representations, promises, understandings and conditions in connection with said matters and any representations, promises or conditions not expressly incorporated herein or therein or expressly made a part hereof or thereof shall not be binding upon any party.

5.9. No Challenges; Specific Performance. Each of Xxxxxx and the Company hereby acknowledges and agrees that (a) it will not challenge the validity of any provision of Articles III or IV hereof in any Litigation or any other proceeding and (b) because any breach of the provisions of Articles III or IV would cause irreparable harm and significant injury that would be difficult to ascertain and would not be adequately compensable by damages alone, each party will have the right to enforce such provisions by injunction, specific performance or other equitable relief without prejudice to any other rights and remedies the enforcing party may have. The reference to specific Articles in this Section is not a waiver of any party’s rights to seek equitable relief for breaches of other Articles or Sections.

5.13. Construction. This Agreement has been negotiated by the parties and their respective counsel in good faith and will be fairly interpreted in accordance with its terms and without any strict construction in favor of or against any party. Time shall be of the essence of this Agreement.

NON-COMPETITION AGREEMENT, dated as of [Closing Date] (this “Agreement”), among XXXXXX CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation (“Xxxxxx”), STRATEX NETWORKS, INC., a Delaware corporation (“Stratex”), and XXXXXX STRATEX NETWORKS, INC., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”).

WHEREAS, Harris and Stratex have entered into a Formation, Contribution and Merger Agreement, dated as of September 5, 2006 (the “Formation Agreement”), pursuant to which the Company was formed to acquire Stratex pursuant to the Merger and to receive the Contributed Assets from Harris in the Contribution Transaction, in each case on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Formation Agreement;

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the mutual covenants in the Agreements, the parties agree as follows:

The term “Restricted Business” means the development, manufacture, distribution and sale of any microwave radio systems and related components, systems and services which are (i) competitive with the products listed in Schedule 1 hereto, or (ii) which are substantially similar to such products in form, fit and function when used in terrestrial microwave point-to-point communications networks that provide access and trunking of voice and data for telecommunications networks anywhere in the world. In addition, all capitalized terms used but not defined in this Agreement shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Formation Agreement; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries shall be deemed to be a Subsidiary or Affiliate of Xxxxxx or any of its other Subsidiaries or Affiliates for purposes of this Agreement.

2. Non-Competition. In consideration for the issuance to Harris of shares of the Company pursuant to the Formation Agreement and the performance by Stratex of its obligations under the Agreements (collectively, the “Non-Compete Consideration”), Harris agrees that, during the period commencing on the date of this Agreement and ending on the fifth anniversary of the date hereof, Xxxxxx will not, and will not permit any of its Subsidiaries to (a) engage, directly or indirectly, in the Restricted Business, (b) form any Person other than the Company and its Subsidiaries (a “Covered Person”) or change or extend the current business activities of any existing Covered Person for the purpose of engaging, directly or indirectly, in the Restricted Business or (c) invest, directly or indirectly, in any Covered Person engaged, directly or indirectly, in the Restricted Business in any material respect; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing Xxxxxx and/or its Subsidiaries may (i) collectively own less than 20% of the total equity interests in any Covered Person engaged in the Restricted Business as

long as none of the employees of Xxxxxx or any of its Subsidiaries is involved in the management of such Covered Person, (ii) participate as a passive investor with no management rights in any investment fund that holds an ownership interests in Covered Persons engaged in the Restricted Business which is managed by Persons that are not Affiliates of Xxxxxx (each, an “Unaffiliated Person”) (x) with any employee benefit or retirement plan funds and (y) with any other funds subject, in the case of this clause (y) only, to a maximum interest in such investment fund of 15% and (iii) acquire a Covered Person or business unit of a Covered Person engaged in the Restricted Business if (x) the Restricted Business contributed less than 20% of such Covered Person’s or business unit’s, as applicable, total revenues (based on its latest annual audited financial statements, if available) and (y) such Covered Person or Xxxxxx, as applicable, divests or ceases to conduct the Restricted Business within 18 months after the acquisition date. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the defined term “Restricted Business” shall not include, and the prohibition contained in this Section 2 shall in no way prohibit Xxxxxx and/or its Subsidiaries from, (a) purchasing and reselling products produced by, and marked with the brands of, an Unaffiliated Person in connection with the sale, service, design or maintenance of a system that contains or uses microwave radios or related components, systems or services or (b) developing, manufacturing, distributing or selling microwave radios or related components, systems or services for use by Government Entities.

3. Sufficiency of Consideration. Each of the parties acknowledges that the Non-Compete Consideration is sufficient consideration for the duration and scope of the non-competition agreement contained herein and that such duration and scope are reasonable in all respects.

4. Severability; Enforceability. If any provision of this Agreement, or any part thereof, is held by a court or other authority of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable, the parties agree that the court or authority making such determination will have the power to reduce the duration or scope of such provision or to delete specific words or phrases as necessary (but only to the minimum extent necessary) to cause such provision or part to be valid and enforceable. If such court or authority does not have the legal authority to take the actions described in the preceding sentence, the parties agree to negotiate in good faith a modified provision that would, in so far as possible, reflect the original intent of this Agreement without violating applicable law.

5. Availability of Injunctive Relief. The parties hereto acknowledge and recognize that irreparable damage could result to the Company and its Subsidiaries, businesses and properties if Xxxxxx fails or refuses to perform its obligations under this Agreement and that no adequate remedy at law will exist for any breach by Xxxxxx of this Agreement. In addition to any other rights or remedies and damages available, the Company shall be entitled to appropriate injunctive relief, including preliminary and mandatory injunctive relief, enjoining or restraining Xxxxxx or any of its Subsidiaries from any violation or threatened violation of this Agreement.

6. Governing Law and Venue; Waiver of Jury Trial. (a) THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE DEEMED TO BE MADE IN AND IN ALL RESPECTS SHALL BE INTERPRETED, CONSTRUED AND GOVERNED BY AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAW OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE WITHOUT REGARD TO THE

-2-

CONFLICT OF LAW PRINCIPLES THEREOF. The parties hereby irrevocably submit to the jurisdiction of the courts of the State of Delaware and the Federal courts of the United States of America located in the State of Delaware (collectively, the “Delaware Courts”) solely in respect of the interpretation and enforcement of the provisions of this Agreement and hereby waive, and agree not to assert, as a defense in any action, suit or proceeding for the interpretation or enforcement hereof or of any such document, that it is not subject thereto or that such action, suit or proceeding may not be brought or is not maintainable in any Delaware Court or that the venue thereof may not be appropriate or that this Agreement or any such document may not be enforced in or by such courts, and the parties hereto irrevocably agree that all claims with respect to such action or proceeding shall be heard and determined in any Delaware Court; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing each party agrees that any claim which primarily seeks injunctive relief and related monetary claims that cannot be brought in any Delaware Court for jurisdiction reasons may be commenced, heard and determined in any other court having proper jurisdiction over such claim. The parties hereby consent to and grant any Delaware Court jurisdiction over the person of such parties and, to the extent permitted by law, over the subject matter of such dispute and agree that mailing of process or other papers in connection with any such action or proceeding in the manner provided in Section 12 or in such other manner as may be permitted by law shall be valid and sufficient service thereof.

(b) Each party acknowledges and agrees that any controversy which may arise under this Agreement is likely to involve complicated and difficult issues, and therefore each such party hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives any right such party may have to a trial by jury in respect of any litigation directly or indirectly arising out of or relating to this Agreement. Each party certifies and acknowledges that (i) no representative, agent or attorney of any other party has represented, expressly or otherwise, that such other party would not, in the event of litigation, seek to enforce the foregoing waiver, (ii) each party understands and has considered the implications of this waiver, (iii) each party makes this waiver voluntarily, and (iv) each party has been induced to enter into this Agreement by, among other things, the mutual waivers and certifications in this Section 6.

7. Amendment; Waiver. This Agreement may be amended or any performance, term or condition waived in whole or in part only by a writing signed by persons authorized to so bind each party (in the case of an amendment) or the waiving party (in the case of a waiver). No failure or delay by any party to take any action with respect to a breach by another party of this Agreement or a default by another party hereunder shall constitute a waiver of the former party’s right to enforce any provision of this Agreement or to take action with respect to such breach or default or any subsequent breach or default. Waiver by any party of any breach or failure to comply with any provision of this Agreement by another party shall not be construed as, or constitute, a continuing wavier of such provisions, or a waiver of any other breach of or failure to comply with any other provisions of this Agreement.

8. Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement and understanding between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof.

9. Counterparts. This Agreement may be signed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original, with the same effect as if the signatures thereto and hereto

-3-

were upon the same instrument. This Agreement shall become effective when each party hereto shall have received a counterpart hereof signed by the other party 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).

10. Successors in Interest; Assignment. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon and enforceable against the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns. No party may assign, delegate or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of each other party hereto.

11. No Third-Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement is intended solely for the benefit of the parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns and shall not confer upon any other person any remedy, claim, liability, reimbursement or other right. The Agreement is not intended and shall not be construed to create any third party beneficiaries or to provide to any third parties with any remedy, claim, liability, reimbursement, cause of action or other right or privilege.

12. Notices. Any notice, request, instruction or other document to be given hereunder by any party to the others shall be in writing and delivered personally or sent by registered or certified mail or by overnight courier, postage prepaid, or by facsimile:

In order to exercise such right, the Holder (the “Demanding Holder”) must give written notice to the Company (a “Demand Notice”) requesting that the Company register under the Securities Act the offer and sale of Registrable Securities (i)

-4-

having a market value on the date the Demand Notice is received (the “Demand Date”) of at least $50 million based on the then prevailing market price, (ii) representing at least 5% of the outstanding Common Stock (on a fully diluted basis) or (iii) representing all of the Registrable Securities then held by such Holder and its Affiliates. Upon receipt of the Demand Notice, the Company shall (i) promptly notify the other Holders of the receipt of such Demand Notice, (ii) prepare and file with the Commission as soon as practicable and in no event later than 90 days after the Demand Date a Demand Registration Statement relating to the offer and sale of the Applicable Securities on any available form requested by the Demanding Holder (which may include a “shelf” Registration Statement under Rule 415 promulgated under the Securities Act solely for use in connection with delayed underwritten offerings under Rule 415 promulgated under the Securities Act) and (iii) use reasonable efforts to cause such Demand Registration Statement to be declared effective under the Securities Act as promptly as practicable. The Company shall use reasonable efforts to have each Demand Registration Statement remain effective until the earlier of (i) two years (in the case of a shelf Demand Registration Statement) or 90 days (in the case of any other Demand Registration Statement) from the Effective Time of such Registration Statement and (ii) such time as all of the Applicable Securities have been disposed of by the Electing Holders.

(b) The Company shall have the right to postpone (or, if necessary or advisable, withdraw) the filing, or to delay the effectiveness, of a Registration Statement or offers and sales of Applicable Securities registered under a shelf Demand Registration Statement if the board of directors of the Company determines in good faith that such Registration would interfere with any pending financing, acquisition, corporate reorganization or other corporate transaction involving the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or would otherwise be seriously detrimental to the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, and furnishes to the Electing Holders a copy of a resolution of the board of directors of the Company setting forth such determination; provided, however, that the Company may postpone a Demand Registration or offers and sales of Applicable Securities under a shelf Demand Registration Statement no more than once in any 12 month period and that no single postponement shall exceed 90 days in the aggregate. The Company shall advise the Electing Holders of any such determination as promptly as practicable.

(c) Notwithstanding anything in this Section 2, the Company shall not be obligated to take any action under this Section 2:

	(i)		with respect to more than four non-shelf Demand Registration Statements relating to underwritten offerings which have become effective and which covered all the Registrable Securities requesting to be included therein, or

	(ii)		with respect to more than two shelf Demand Registration Statements which have become and remained effective as required by this Agreement.

(d) The Company may include in any registration requested pursuant to Section 2(a) hereof other securities for sale for its own account or for the account of another Person, subject to the following sentence. In connection with an underwritten offering, if the managing

-5-

underwriter advises the Company and the Electing Holders in writing that in its opinion the number of securities requested to be registered exceeds the maximum number which can be sold in such offering without materially adversely affecting the pricing, timing or likely success of the offering (with respect to any offering, the “Maximum Number”), the Company shall include such Maximum Number in such Registration as follows: (i) first, the Applicable Securities requested to be registered by the Demanding Holder, (ii) second, the Applicable Securities requested to be included by any other Electing Holders, if any, (iii) third, any securities proposed to be included by the Company and (iv) fourth, any other securities requested to be included in such Registration. For purposes of this Agreement, an “underwritten offering” shall be an offering pursuant to which securities are sold to a broker-dealer or other financial institution or group thereof for resale by them to investors.

(e) The Demanding Holder shall have the right to withdraw its Demand Notice (in which case such Demand Notice shall be deemed never to have been given for purposes of Section 2(a)) (i) at any time prior to the time the Demand Registration Statement has been declared or becomes effective if the Demanding Holder reimburses the Company for the reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by it prior to such withdrawal in effecting such Registration, (ii) upon the issuance by the Commission or any court or other governmental agency or authority of a stop order, injunction or other order which prohibits or interferes with such Registration, (iii) if the conditions to closing specified in the purchase agreement or underwriting agreement entered into in connection with such registration are not satisfied other than as a result of default by the Demanding Holder, (iv) there has been a material adverse change in market conditions or in the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations or prospects since the date of such Demand Notice, or (v) if the Company exercises any of its rights under Section 2(b) of this Agreement. If the Holders withdraw a Demand Notice pursuant to this Section 2(e) and the Company nevertheless decides to continue with the Registration as to securities other than the Applicable Securities, then the Holders shall be entitled to participate in such Registration pursuant to Section 3 hereof, but in such case the Intended Offering Notice must be given to the Holders at least 10 business days prior to the anticipated filing date of the Registration Statement and the Holders shall be required to give the Piggyback Notice no later than five business days after the Company’s delivery of such Intended Offering Notice.

(f) If any Registration pursuant to this Section 2 shall relate to an underwritten offering, the Demanding Holder shall select the managing underwriter or underwriters with the consent of the Company, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, and the right of any other Holder to participate therein shall be conditioned upon such Holder’s participation in the underwriting agreements and arrangements required by this Agreement.

3. Piggyback Registrations. (a) If at any time the Company intends to file on its behalf or on behalf of any holder of its securities a Registration Statement under the Securities Act in connection with a public offering of any securities of the Company (other than a registration statement on Form S-8 or Form S-4 or their successor forms), then the Company shall give written notice of such intention (an “Intended Offering Notice”) to each Holder at least

-6-

20 business days prior to the date such Registration Statement is filed. Such Intended Offering Notice shall offer to include in such Registration Statement for offer to the public the number or amount of Registrable Securities as each such Holder may request, subject to the conditions set forth herein, and shall specify, to the extent then known, the number and class of securities proposed to be registered, the proposed date of filing of such Registration Statement, any proposed means of distribution of such securities, any proposed managing underwriter or underwriters of such securities, together with a good faith estimate by the Company of the proposed maximum offering price of such securities. Any Holder that elects to have its Registrable Securities offered and sold pursuant to such Registration Statement shall so advise the Company in writing (such written notice from any such Holder being a “Piggyback Notice”) not later than seven business days after the date on which such Holder received the Intended Offering Notice, setting forth the number of Registrable Securities that such Holder desires to have offered and sold pursuant to such Registration Statement. Upon the request of the Company, the Electing Holders shall enter into such underwriting, custody and other agreements as shall be customary in connection with registered secondary offerings or necessary or appropriate in connection with the offering. Each Holder shall be permitted to withdraw all or part of its Applicable Securities from any Registration pursuant to this Section 3 at any time prior to the sale thereof (or, if applicable, the entry into a binding agreement for such sale). If any Registration pursuant to this Section 3 shall relate to an underwritten offering, the right of any Holder to participate therein shall be conditioned upon such Holder’s participation in the underwriting agreements and arrangements required by this Agreement.

(b) In connection with an underwritten offering, if the managing underwriter or underwriters advise the Company in writing that in its or their opinion the number of securities proposed to be registered exceeds the Maximum Number with respect to such offering, the Company shall include in such Registration such Maximum Number as follows: (i) first, the securities that the Company proposes to sell, (ii) second, the Applicable Securities requested to be included in such Registration pro rata among the Electing Holders thereof based on the respective amount of Applicable Securities owned by them and (iii) third, if any, securities held by other holders of securities of the Company who have requested that their securities be included in such Registration Statement and who hold contractual registration rights with respect to such securities.

(c) The rights of the Holders pursuant to Section 2 hereof and this Section 3 are cumulative, and the exercise of rights under one such Section shall not exclude the subsequent exercise of rights under the other such Section (except to the extent expressly provided otherwise herein). Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Company may abandon and/or withdraw any registration as to which rights under Section 3 may exist (or have been exercised) at any time and for any reason without liability hereunder. In such event, the Company shall notify each Holder that has delivered a Piggyback Notice to participate therein. No Registration of Registrable Securities effected pursuant to a request under this Section 3 shall be deemed to be, or shall relieve the Company of its obligation to effect, a Registration upon request under Section 2 hereof. The Company may enter into other registration rights agreements; provided,

-7-

however, that the rights and benefits of a holder of securities of the Company with respect to registration of such securities as contained in any such other agreement shall not be inconsistent with, or adversely affect, the rights and benefits of holders of Registrable Securities as contained in this Agreement.

4. Registration Procedures. In connection with a Registration Statement, the following provisions shall apply:

(a) Each Electing Holder shall in a timely manner (i) deliver to the Company and its counsel a duly completed copy of any form of notice and questionnaire reasonably requested by the Company and (ii) provide the Company and its counsel with such other information as to itself as may be required by law for inclusion in the Registration Statement.

(b) The Company shall furnish to each Electing Holder, prior to the Effective Time, a copy of the Registration Statement initially filed with the Commission, and shall furnish to such Electing Holders copies of each amendment thereto and each amendment or supplement, if any, to the Prospectus included therein.

(c) The Company shall promptly take such action as may be reasonably necessary so that (i) each of the Registration Statement and any amendment thereto and the Prospectus forming part thereof and any amendment or supplement thereto (and each report or other document incorporated therein by reference in each case), when it becomes effective, complies in all material respects with the Securities Act and the Exchange Act and the respective rules and regulations thereunder, (ii) each of the Registration Statement and any amendment thereto does not, when it becomes effective, contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading and (iii) each of the Prospectus forming part of the Registration Statement, and any amendment or supplement to such Prospectus, does not at any time during the period during which the Company is required to keep a Registration Statement continuously effective under Section 2(a) (other than any period during which it is entitled and elects to postpone offers and sales under Section 2(b) (each, a “Postponement Period”)) include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

(d) The Company shall, promptly upon learning thereof, advise each Electing Holder, and shall confirm such advice in writing if so requested by any such Electing Holder:

	(i)		when the Registration Statement and any amendment thereto has been filed with the Commission and when the Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment thereto has become effective;

	(ii)		of any request by the Commission for amendments or supplements to the Registration Statement or the Prospectus included therein or for additional information;

-8-

	(iii)		of the issuance by the Commission of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement or the initiation of any proceedings for such purpose;

	(iv)		of the receipt by the Company of any notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification of the securities included in the Registration Statement for sale in any jurisdiction or the initiation of any proceeding for such purpose;

	(v)		following the effectiveness of any Registration Statement, of the happening of any event or the existence of any state of facts that requires the making of any changes in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus included therein so that, as of such date, such Registration Statement and Prospectus do not contain an untrue statement of a material fact and do not omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of the Prospectus, in light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading (which advice shall be accompanied by an instruction to such Electing Holders to suspend the use of the Prospectus until the requisite changes have been made which instruction such Electing Holders agree to follow); and

	(vi)		if at any time any of the representations and warranties of the Company contemplated by paragraph (l) below cease to be true and correct or will not be true and correct as of the closing date for the offering.

(e) The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to prevent the issuance, and if issued to obtain the withdrawal, of any order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement at the earliest possible time.

(f) The Company shall furnish to each Electing Holder, without charge, at least one copy of the Registration Statement and all post-effective amendments thereto, including financial statements and schedules, and, if such Electing Holder so requests in writing, all reports, other documents and exhibits that are filed with or incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement.

(g) The Company shall, during the period during which the Company is required to keep a Registration Statement continuously effective under Section 2(a) or elects to keep effective under Section 3(a), deliver to each Electing Holder and any managing underwriter or agent, without charge, as many copies of the Prospectus (including each preliminary Prospectus) included in the Registration Statement and any amendment or supplement thereto and other documents as they may reasonably request to facilitate the distribution of the Registrable Securities; and the Company consents (except during the continuance of any event described in Section 4(d)(v) hereof) to the use of the Prospectus, with any amendment or supplement thereto, by each of the Electing Holders and any managing underwriter or agent in connection with the

offering and sale of the Applicable Securities covered by the Prospectus and any amendment or supplement thereto during such period.

(h) Prior to any offering of Applicable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement, the Company shall (i) use reasonable efforts to register or qualify or cooperate with the Electing Holders and their respective counsel in connection with the registration or qualification of such Applicable Securities for offer and sale under any applicable securities or “blue sky” laws of such jurisdictions within the United States as any Electing Holder may reasonably request, (ii) use reasonable efforts to keep such registrations or qualifications in effect and comply with such laws so as to permit the continuance of offers and sales in such jurisdictions for the period during which the Company is required to keep a Registration Statement continuously effective under Section 2(a) or elects to keep effective under Section 3(a) and (iii) take any and all other actions reasonably requested by an Electing Holder which are necessary or advisable to enable the disposition in such jurisdictions of such Applicable Securities; provided, however, that nothing contained in this Section 4(h) shall require the Company to (A) qualify as a foreign corporation or as a dealer in securities in any jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be required to qualify but for this Section 4(h) or (B) take any action which would subject it to general service of process or taxation in any such jurisdiction if it is not then so subject.

(i) The Company shall, if requested by the Electing Holders, use reasonable best efforts to cause all such Applicable Securities to be sold pursuant to the Registration Statement to be listed on any securities exchange or automated quotation service on which securities of the Company are listed or quoted.

(j) The Company shall cooperate with the Electing Holders to facilitate the timely preparation and delivery of certificates representing Applicable Securities to be sold pursuant to the Registration Statement, which certificates shall comply with the requirements of any securities exchange or automated quotation service on which any securities of the Company are listed and quoted, and which certificates shall be free of any restrictive legends and in such permitted denominations and registered in such names as Electing Holders or any managing underwriter or agent may request in connection with the sale of Applicable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement.

(k) Upon the occurrence of any fact or event contemplated by Section 4(d)(v) hereof, the Company shall promptly prepare a post-effective amendment or supplement to the Registration Statement or the Prospectus, or any document incorporated therein by reference, or file any other required document so that, after such amendment or supplement, such Registration Statement and Prospectus do not contain an untrue statement of a material fact and do not omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of the Prospectus, in light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to take any such action during a Postponement Period (but it shall promptly thereafter). In the event that the Company notifies the Electing Holders of the occurrence of any fact or event contemplated by Section

-10-

4(d)(v) hereof, each Electing Holder agrees, as a condition of the inclusion of any of such Electing Holder’s Applicable Securities in the Registration Statement, to suspend the use of the Prospectus until the requisite changes to the Prospectus have been made.

(l) The Company shall, together with all Electing Holders, enter into such customary agreements (including an underwriting agreement in customary form in the event of an underwritten offering) and take all other reasonable and appropriate action in order to expedite and facilitate the registration and disposition of the Registrable Securities, and in connection therewith, if an underwriting agreement is entered into, cause the same to contain indemnification provisions and procedures substantially similar to those set forth in Section 6 hereof with respect to all parties to be indemnified pursuant to Section 6 hereof. In addition, in such agreements, the Company will make such representations and warranties to the Electing Holder(s) and the underwriters or agents, if any, in form, substance and scope as are customarily made by issuers in primary equity offerings. The Electing Holder(s) shall be party to such agreements and may, at their option, require that any or all of the representations and warranties by, and the other agreements on the part of, the Company to and for the benefit of such underwriters shall also be made to and for the benefit of the Electing Holders and that any or all of the conditions precedent to the obligations of such underwriters under such underwriting agreement be conditions precedent to the obligations of the Electing Holders. No Electing Holder shall be required to make any representations or warranties to or agreements with the Company or the underwriters or agents other than representations, warranties or agreements relating to such Electing Holder, its Registrable Securities and its intended method of distribution or any other representations required by law.

(m) If requested by the managing underwriter in any underwritten offering, the Company and each Holder (whether or not an Electing Holder) will agree to such limitations on sale, transfer, short sale, hedging, option, swap and other transactions as are then customary in underwriting agreements for registered underwritten offerings; provided, however, that such limitations shall not continue beyond the 180th day after the effective date of the Registration Statement in question or, if later, the commencement of the public distribution of securities to the extent timely notified in writing by the managing underwriters.

(n) The Company shall use best efforts to:

(i)

(A) make reasonably available for inspection by Electing Holders, any underwriter participating in any disposition pursuant to the Registration Statement, and any attorney, accountant or other agent retained by such Holders or any such underwriter all relevant financial and other records, pertinent corporate documents and properties of the Company and its subsidiaries, and (B) cause the Company’s officers, directors and employees to participate in road shows or other customary marketing activities and to supply all information reasonably requested by such Electing Holders or any such underwriter, attorney, accountant or agent in connection with the Registration Statement as is customary for similar due

-11-

			diligence examinations; provided, however, that all records, information and documents that are designated by the Company, in good faith, as confidential shall be kept confidential by such Holders and any such underwriter, attorney, accountant or agent, unless such disclosure is required in connection with a court proceeding after such advance notice to the Company (to the extent practicable in the circumstances) so as to permit the Company to contest the same, or required by law, or such records, information or documents become available to the public generally or through a third party without an accompanying obligation of confidentiality; and provided further that, the foregoing inspection and information gathering shall, to the greatest extent possible, be coordinated on behalf of the Electing Holders and the other parties entitled thereto by one counsel designated by and on behalf of the Electing Holders and such other parties;
	(ii)		in connection with any underwritten offering, obtain opinions of counsel to the Company (which counsel and opinions (in form, scope and substance) shall be reasonably satisfactory to the underwriters) addressed to the underwriters, covering the matters customarily covered in opinions requested in secondary underwritten offerings of equity securities, to the extent reasonably required by the applicable underwriting agreement;

	(iii)		in connection with any underwritten offering, obtain “cold comfort” letters and updates thereof from the independent public accountants of the Company (and, if necessary, from the independent public accountants of any Subsidiary of the Company or of any business acquired by the Company for which financial statements and financial data are, or are required to be, included in the Registration Statement), addressed to each Electing Holder participating in such underwritten offering (if such Electing Holder has provided such letter, representations or documentation, if any, required for such cold comfort letter to be so addressed) and the underwriters, in customary form and covering matters of the type customarily covered in “cold comfort” letters in connection with secondary underwritten offerings of equity securities;

	(iv)		in connection with any underwritten offering, deliver such documents and certificates as may be reasonably requested by any Electing Holders participating in such underwritten offering and the underwriters, if any, including, without limitation, certificates to evidence compliance with any conditions contained in the underwriting agreement or other agreements entered into by the Company; and

	(v)		use its best efforts to comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the Commission and make generally available to its security holders, as

-12-

soon as reasonably practicable (but not more than fifteen months) after the effective date of the Registration Statement, an earnings statement satisfying the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder.

(o) Not later than the effective date of the applicable Registration Statement, the Company shall provide a CUSIP number for all Registrable Securities and provide the applicable transfer agent with printed certificates for the Registrable Securities which are in a form eligible for deposit with The Depository Trust Company.

(p) The Company shall cooperate with each Electing Holder and each underwriter or agent participating in the disposition of such Registrable Securities and their respective counsel in connection with any filings required to be made with the NASD.

(q) As promptly as practicable after filing with the Commission of any document which is incorporated by reference into the Registration Statement or the Prospectus, the Company shall provide copies of such document to counsel for each Electing Holder and to the managing underwriters and agents, if any.

(r) The Company shall provide and cause to be maintained a transfer agent and registrar for all Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement from and after a date not later than the effective date of such Registration Statement.

(s) The Company shall use reasonable best efforts to take all other steps necessary to effect the timely registration, offering and sale of the Applicable Securities covered by the Registration Statements contemplated hereby.

5. Registration Expenses. The Company shall bear all of the Registration Expenses and all other expenses incurred by it in connection with the performance of its obligations under this Agreement. The Electing Holders shall bear all other expenses relating to any Registration or sale in which such Electing Holders participate, including without limitation the fees and expenses of counsel to such Electing Holders and any applicable underwriting discounts or commissions.

6. Indemnification and Contribution. (a) Upon the Registration of Applicable Securities pursuant to Section 2 or Section 3 hereof, the Company shall indemnify and hold harmless each Electing Holder and each underwriter, selling agent or other securities professional, if any, which facilitates the disposition of Applicable Securities, and each of their respective officers and directors and each person who controls such Electing Holder, underwriter, selling agent or other securities professional within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act (each such Person, an “Indemnified Person”) against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which such Indemnified Person may become subject under the Securities Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon an untrue

-13-

statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement under which such Applicable Securities are to be registered under the Securities Act, or any Prospectus contained therein or furnished by the Company to any Indemnified Person, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and the Company hereby agrees to reimburse such Indemnified Person for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim as such expenses are incurred; provided, however, that the Company shall not be liable to any such Indemnified Person in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage, liability or expense arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in such Registration Statement or Prospectus, or amendment or supplement, in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by such Indemnified Person or its agent expressly for use therein; and provided, further, that the Company shall not be liable to the extent that any loss, claim, damage, liability (or action or proceeding in respect thereof) or expense arises out of or is based upon the use of any Prospectus after such time as the Company has advised the Electing Holder in writing that a post-effective amendment or supplement thereto is required, except such Prospectus as so amended or supplemented.

(b) Each Electing Holder agrees, as a consequence of the inclusion of any of such Holder’s Applicable Securities in such Registration Statement, and shall cause each underwriter, selling agent or other securities professional, if any, which facilitates the disposition of Applicable Securities shall agree, as a consequence of facilitating such disposition of Applicable Securities, severally and not jointly, to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its directors and officers and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of either Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which the Company or such other persons may become subject, under the Securities Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in such Registration Statement or Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by such Holder, underwriter, selling agent or other securities professional, as applicable, expressly for use therein; provided, however, that notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary the maximum aggregate amount that any Electing Holder shall be required to pay pursuant to this Section 6 in respect of any Registration shall be the net proceeds received by such Electing Holder from sales of Registrable Securities pursuant to such Registration.

(c) Promptly after receipt by any Person entitled to indemnity under Section 6(a) or (b) hereof (an “Indemnitee”) of any notice of the commencement of any action or claim, such

-14-

Indemnitee shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against any other person under this Section 6 (an “Indemnitor”), notify such Indemnitor in writing of the commencement thereof, but the omission so to notify the Indemnitor shall not relieve it from any liability which it may have to any Indemnitee except to the extent the Indemnitor is actually prejudiced thereby. In case any such action shall be brought against any Indemnitee and it shall notify an Indemnitor of the commencement thereof, such Indemnitor shall be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it shall wish, jointly with any other Indemnitor similarly notified, to assume the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnitee (which shall not be counsel to the Indemnitor without the consent of the Indemnitee, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed). After notice from the Indemnitor to such Indemnitee of its election so to assume the defense thereof, such Indemnitor shall not be liable to such Indemnitee under this Section 6 or otherwise for any legal expenses of other counsel or any other expenses, in each case subsequently incurred by such Indemnitee, in connection with the defense thereof (other than reasonable costs of investigation) unless the Indemnitee shall have been advised by counsel that representation of the Indemnitee by counsel provided by the Indemnitor would be inappropriate due to actual or potential conflicting interests between the Indemnitee and the Indemnitor, including situations in which there are one or more legal defenses available to the Indemnitee that are different from or additional to those available to Indemnitor; provided, however, that the Indemnitor shall not, in connection with any one such action or separate but substantially similar actions arising out of the same general allegations, be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one separate counsel at any time for all Indemnitees, except to the extent that local counsel, in addition to their regular counsel, is required in order to effectively defend against such action. No Indemnitor shall, without the written consent of the Indemnitee, effect the settlement or compromise of, or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to, any pending or threatened action or claim in respect of which indemnification or contribution may be sought hereunder (whether or not the Indemnitee is an actual or potential party to such action or claim) unless such settlement, compromise or judgment (i) includes an unconditional release of the Indemnitee from all liability arising out of such action or claim and (ii) does not include a statement as to, or an admission of, fault, culpability or a failure to act, by or on behalf of any Indemnitee. No indemnification shall be available in respect of any settlement of any action or claim effected by an Indemnitee without the prior written consent of the Indemnitor, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

(d) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 6 is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an Indemnitee under Section 6(a) or Section 6(b) hereof in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) referred to therein, then each Indemnitor shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnitee as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Indemnitor and the Indemnitee in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof), as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of such Indemnitor and Indemnitee shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or

-15-

alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by such Indemnitor or by such Indemnitee, and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 6(d) were determined solely by pro rata allocation (even if the Electing Holders or any underwriters, selling agents or other securities professionals or all of them were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the considerations referred to in this Section 6(d). The amount paid or payable by an Indemnitee as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) referred to above shall be deemed to include any legal or other fees or expenses reasonably incurred by such Indemnitee in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The obligations of the Electing Holders and any underwriters, selling agents or other securities professionals in this Section 6(d) to contribute shall be several in proportion to the percentage of Applicable Securities registered or underwritten, as the case may be, by them and not joint.

7. Miscellaneous. (a) THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE DEEMED TO BE MADE IN AND IN ALL RESPECTS SHALL BE INTERPRETED, CONSTRUED AND GOVERNED BY AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAW OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE WITHOUT REGARD TO THE CONFLICT OF LAW PRINCIPLES THEREOF. The parties hereby irrevocably submit to the jurisdiction of the courts of the State of Delaware and the Federal courts of the United States of America located in the State of Delaware solely in respect of the interpretation and enforcement of the provisions of this Agreement and of the documents referred to in this Agreement, and in respect of the transactions contemplated hereby, and hereby waive, and agree not to assert, as a defense in any action, suit or proceeding for the interpretation or enforcement hereof or of any such document, that it is not subject thereto or that such action, suit or proceeding may not be brought or is not maintainable in said courts or that the venue thereof may not be appropriate or that this Agreement or any such document may not be enforced in or by such courts, and the parties hereto irrevocably agree that all claims with respect to such action or proceeding shall be heard and determined in such a Delaware State or Federal court. The parties hereby consent to and grant any such court jurisdiction over the person of such parties and, to the extent permitted by law, over the subject matter of such dispute and agree that mailing of process or other papers in connection with any such action or proceeding in the manner provided in Section 7(d) or in such other manner as may be permitted by law shall be valid and sufficient service thereof.

Each Holder of Registrable Securities outstanding at the time of any such amendment, waiver or consent or thereafter shall be bound by any amendment, waiver or consent effected pursuant to this Section 7(c), whether or not any notice, writing or marking indicating such amendment, waiver or consent appears on the Registrable Securities or is delivered to such Holder. Waiver by any party of any breach in accordance with this Section 7(c) or failure to comply with any provision of this Agreement by another party shall not be construed as, or constitute, a continuing wavier of such provisions, or a waiver of any other breach of or failure to comply with any other provisions of this Agreement.

(d) All notices, requests and other communications to any party hereunder shall be in writing (including facsimile transmission) and shall be effective (a) when delivered, (b) when transmitted via telecopy (or other facsimile device) to the number set out below if the sender on the same day sends a confirming copy of such notice by a recognized overnight delivery service (charges prepaid), (c) the day following the day on which the same has been delivered prepaid to a reputable national overnight air courier service or (d) the third Business Day following the day on which the same is sent by certified or registered mail or by overnight courier, postage prepaid, in each case to the respective parties at the address set forth below, or at such other address as such party may specify by written notice to the other party hereto:

Except as provided in the preceding sentence, the rights and obligations of the parties under this Agreement shall not be assignable or transferable and there shall be no third party beneficiaries hereto. All the terms and provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon, shall inure to the benefit of, and shall be enforceable by, the legal successors and permitted assigns of the parties hereto and any Holder.

(f) This Agreement may be executed by the parties in any number of separate counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement.

costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) of the prevailing party incurred in connection with such action or proceeding.

(i) The provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed severable and the invalidity or unenforceability of any provision shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the other provisions hereof. If any provisions of this Agreement, or the application thereof to any Person or entity or any circumstance, is invalid or unenforceable, (i) a suitable and equitable provision shall be substituted therefor in order to carry out, so far as may be valid and enforceable the intent of such provision and (ii) the remainder of this Agreement and the application of such provision to other Persons, entities or circumstances shall not be affected by such invalidity or unenforceability, nor shall such invalidity or unenforceability affect the validity or enforceability of such provision, or the application thereof, in any other jurisdiction.

(k) This Agreement has been negotiated by the parties and their respective counsel in good faith and will be fairly interpreted in accordance with its terms and without any strict construction in favor of or against any party. Time shall be of the essence of this Agreement.

(l) Each party hereby acknowledges and agrees that because the obligations undertaken by them hereunder are unique and the breach of any such obligations would cause irreparable harm and significant injury that would be difficult to ascertain and would not be adequately compensable by damages alone, each party will have the right to enforce such provisions by injunction, specific performance or other equitable relief without prejudice to any other rights and remedies the enforcing party may have.

(m) Xxxxxx agrees that a majority of the Class A Directors (as defined in the Investor Agreement) shall have the sole and exclusive right to direct the exercise and enforcement of all rights of the Company hereunder.

Subject to the licenses granted back to Xxxxxx and its Subsidiaries pursuant to Section 4.03 and to any and all pre-existing licenses granted by Xxxxxx or its Subsidiaries, Xxxxxx and its Subsidiaries hereby assign and transfer to the Company all of their right, title and interest in and to the contributed patents listed in Schedule A, along with all rights to xxx and recover for any past infringements thereof (collectively, the “Contributed Patents”).

4.02 Patents Licensed to the Company. Xxxxxx and its Subsidiaries hereby grant to the Company a personal, fully paid-up, worldwide, non-transferable (except as provided in Article 7), irrevocable (subject to Article 6) and nonexclusive license under the Licensed Patents, subject to any and all pre-existing licenses granted by Xxxxxx or its Subsidiaries, to make, have made, use, sell, offer to sell, lease, transfer, import, export or otherwise distribute products or services of the Company now or in the future and to use and perform all processes and methods claimed by the Licensed Patents. The licenses in this Section 4.02 include the right to convey to any customer of the Company, with respect to any product which is sold or leased by the Company to such customer, rights to use and resell such products as sold or leased by the Company. “Licensed Patents” shall mean those Patents, other than Patents which are part of the Contributed Intellectual Property (i.e., the “Contributed Patents”), which Xxxxxx or its Subsidiaries own or control as of the Closing Date, which are used in the MCD Business immediately prior to the Closing, and for which Xxxxxx or its Subsidiaries have the right to grant

-3-

licenses hereunder without the payment of royalties (other than to an inventor thereof), loss of rights or imposition of a penalty.

4.03 License Back to Xxxxxx and its Subsidiaries. The Company hereby grants to Xxxxxx and its Subsidiaries a personal, fully paid-up, worldwide, non-transferable (except as provided in Article 7), irrevocable (subject to Article 6) and nonexclusive license under the Contributed Patents to make, have made, use, sell, offer to sell, lease, transfer, import, export or otherwise distribute products or services sold by Xxxxxx or its Subsidiaries now or in the future and to use and perform all processes and methods claimed by the Contributed Patents.

4.04 Term. The licenses granted under Section 4.02 and Section 4.03 shall extend until the applicable patent’s expiration or the expiration of as much of such term as grantor has the right to grant unless otherwise terminated in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement.

4.05 Right to Sublicense Licensed Patents. Subject to any and all pre-existing licenses granted by Xxxxxx or its Subsidiaries, Xxxxxx and its Subsidiaries grant to the Company a personal, non-transferable (except as provided in Article 7), irrevocable (subject to Article 6) and nonexclusive right to grant nonexclusive sublicenses under the Licensed Patents in connection with the operation of the MCD Business or any products or services sold by the Company now or in the future to suppliers to the extent necessary to produce products or components for such products for the Company and to customers to the extent necessary to permit such customers to use any product or service produced or provided by the Company for its intended purpose. The Company may not under any circumstances grant sublicenses of such rights in connection with a general licensing program, for settlement purposes or other purposes not directly related to its own operations.

4.06 No Sham. The “have made” rights granted hereunder to a party do not extend or give rights to such party which would effectively create a sublicense to a third party for the patents licensed hereunder and not for bona fide business purposes of the ordinary operations of such party.

-4-

Agreement are solely those of a licensee, which rights terminate (except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement) upon termination of this Agreement.

(b) Licensor agrees that if Licensor receives notice of any pending or written claims, proceedings, hearings or demands alleging that the Licensed Trademark, the Stylized Xxxx or the Licensed Trade Name infringes or otherwise violates a third party’s proprietary right, or challenging the legality, validity, enforceability or ownership of any of the Licensed Trademark, the Stylized Xxxx or the Licensed Trade Name, Licensor will notify Licensee in writing promptly following receipt of notice of such claims in order to permit Licensee and its Subsidiaries, at their option, to cease using the Licensed Trademark, the Stylized Xxxx and the Licensed Trade Name in accordance with this Agreement and/or immediately terminate their license rights under this Agreement.

8. Compliance, Etc.

(a) Licensee and its Subsidiaries agree to comply with any reasonable trademark and trade name usage guidelines provided by Licensor to Licensee, as may be established from time to time by Licensor, with respect to the appearance and manner of use of the Licensed Trademark, the Stylized Xxxx and Licensed Trade Name. Each time Licensee or its Subsidiaries intend to use any form of the Licensed Trademark, the Stylized Xxxx or the Licensed Trade Name not permitted by such usage guidelines, Licensee or its Subsidiaries, as the case may be, shall submit such form to Licensor for its prior written approval, notwithstanding any previous use by Licensee or its Subsidiaries of such form of the Licensed Trademark, the

-5-

Stylized Xxxx or Licensed Trade Name. Unless Licensor objects or denies approval for such use within thirty (30) Business Days of actual receipt of notice of such use by Licensee (which notice shall reference this section), such use shall be deemed approved by Licensor; provided that the Licensor can by written notice to Licensee (specifying reasonable grounds for such notice) later object to any subsequent use of the Licensed Trademark, the Stylized Xxxx or the Licensed Trade Name in such a manner and Licensee or its Subsidiaries, as the case may be, shall cease such use of the Licensed Trademark, the Stylized Xxxx or the Licensed Trade Name as soon as reasonably practicable following the receipt of such notice. Representative specimens showing the use of the Licensed Trademark, the Stylized Xxxx and/or the Licensed Trade Name by Licensee and its Subsidiaries shall be sent to Licensor from time to time upon its reasonable request.

(b) Licensee and its Subsidiaries acknowledge that the rights of Licensor in the Licensed Trademark, the Stylized Xxxx and the Licensed Trade Name are paramount to any right hereby granted to Licensee and its Subsidiaries, and Licensee and its Subsidiaries agree that they will comply in all material respects with all trademark laws and regulations of all countries where the Licensee Business Products are marketed or sold or the Licensed Trademark, the Stylized Xxxx or the Licensed Trade Name is used by Licensee and its Subsidiaries. Should Licensee’s and its Subsidiaries’ compliance with the laws or regulations of any country result in the potential dilution or loss of trade name or trademark rights of Licensor in the Licensed Trademark, the Stylized Xxxx or the Licensed Trade Name, Licensee and its Subsidiaries shall take such actions as may be reasonably required by Licensor from time to time to preserve the validity and the strength of the Licensed Trademark, the Stylized Xxxx and/or the Licensed Trade Name.

(c) At the reasonable request of Licensor, Licensee and its Subsidiaries agree to promptly provide to Licensor a list of countries in which Licensee and its Subsidiaries intend to market or sell the Licensee Business Products during the term of this Agreement or otherwise conduct business using the Licensed Trade Name. Licensee and its Subsidiaries, at Licensor’s expense, shall cooperate in assisting Licensor with filing or registering this Agreement (or relevant portions thereof) in countries requiring the same, provided that if such filing requirement results solely from Licensee’s or its Subsidiaries or their respective Affiliates’ use of the Licensed Trademark, the Stylized Xxxx or Licensed Trade Name, then Licensee shall be responsible for all expenses associated with complying with such filing requirement.

9. Quality Control. To protect the value of the Licensed Trademark and the Stylized Xxxx, Licensee and its Subsidiaries agree that, during the term of this Agreement and for so long as Licensee or any of its Subsidiaries is using the Licensed Trademark, the Stylized Xxxx or the Licensed Trade Name, the Licensee Business Products manufactured, marketed and/or sold by Licensee and its Subsidiaries will be substantially equivalent, at a minimum, in quality to the Licensee Business Products presently being manufactured and sold by the Licensor as of the Closing Date with respect to materials, workmanship, and performance. Licensee and its Subsidiaries shall not use the Licensed Trademark, the Stylized Xxxx or the Licensed Trade Name in any manner which might reasonably be expected to tarnish, disparage or reflect adversely on Licensor or any of its Affiliates or the Licensed Trademark, the Stylized Xxxx or the Licensed Trade Name. Licensee and its Subsidiaries shall comply in all material respects with all applicable laws and regulations in the manufacture, sale, distribution and marketing of

the Licensee Business Products, Existing Packaging, New Packaging, Existing Marketing and Promotional Material, and New Marketing and Promotional Material bearing the Licensed Trademark, the Stylized Xxxx or the Licensed Trade Name, and Licensee and its Subsidiaries shall use all legends, notices, and markings as required by applicable law. Licensor reserves the right to inspect the quality of the Licensee Business Products manufactured, sold, leased, distributed or marketed by Licensee and its Subsidiaries under the Licensed Trademark, the Stylized Xxxx or the Licensed Trade Name in order to ensure that the quality is as aforesaid and for the purpose of maintaining in full force and effect Licensor’s rights to and in the Licensed Trademark, the Stylized Xxxx and the Licensed Trade Name under applicable laws. From time to time, and at Licensor’s expense, Licensor may send representatives to the plants of Licensee and its Subsidiaries (or their contract manufacturers) to consult with and advise Licensee and its Subsidiaries with respect to Licensee’s and its Subsidiaries’ quality control of the Licensee Business Products; provided that Licensor shall provide Licensee with five (5) Business Days prior written notice of such visits, that such visits shall be conducted during Licensee’s normal business hours and in a manner so as not to disrupt Licensee’s business operations, and Licensor’s representatives agree to a reasonable confidentiality agreement provided by Licensee and to comply with Licensee’s (or its contract manufacturer’s) then-current security practices and procedures on each visit. In response to any reasonable request by Licensor, Licensee and its Subsidiaries shall, from time to time, at Licensor’s option, send to Licensor one or more of the following: (i) copies of Licensee’s and its Subsidiaries’ quality assurance tests, or equivalents, conducted on the Licensee Business Products, (ii) representative samples of the Licensee Business Products (free of cost and at the expense of Licensee) or (iii) a written certification that all Licensee Business Products sold by Licensee or any of its Subsidiaries during the relevant period have been at least equivalent in quality to the Licensee Business Products presently being manufactured and sold by Licensor immediately prior to the Closing with regard to material, workmanship and performance. Nothing in this agreement shall prohibit Licensor from acquiring Licensee Business Products independently or otherwise independently verifying Licensee’s or its Subsidiaries’ adherence to the quality standards set forth in this Section 9.

together with the non-exclusive right with Landlord and other occupants of the Building to use Common Areas, as defined below, and the fixtures and furniture currently installed or located in the Premises.

3. Acceptance of Premises. Tenant has examined and knows the condition of the Property, the zoning, streets, sidewalks, parking areas, curbs and access ways adjoining it, visible easements, any surface conditions and the present uses, and the fixtures and furniture currently installed or located in the Premises, and Tenant accepts them in the condition in which they now are, without relying on any representation, covenant or warranty by Landlord. Tenant and its agents shall have the right, at Tenant’s own risk, expense and responsibility, at all reasonable times prior to the Commencement Date, to enter the Premises for the purpose of taking measurements and installing its furnishings and equipment; provided that the Premises are vacant and Tenant obtains Landlord’s prior written consent.

4. Use; Compliance.

(a) Permitted Use. Tenant shall occupy and use the Premises for and only for the Use specified in Section 1(d) above and in such manner as is lawful, reputable, and will not create any nuisance or otherwise interfere with any other tenant’s normal operations or the management of the Building. Without limiting the foregoing, such Use shall exclude any use that would cause the Premises or the Property to be deemed a “place of public accommodation” under the Americans with Disability Act (the “ADA”) as further described in the Building Rules (defined below). All Common Areas shall be subject to Landlord’s exclusive control and management at all times. Tenant shall not use or permit the use of any portion of the Common Areas for other than their intended use.

(b) Compliance. From and after the Commencement Date, Tenant shall comply promptly, at its sole expense, with all laws (including the ADA), ordinances, notices, orders, rules, regulations and requirements regulating the Property during the Term which impose any duty upon Landlord or Tenant with respect to use, occupancy of, or Tenant’s installations in or upon, the Property including the Premises, (as the same may be amended by Landlord from time to time, the “Building Rules”). Tenant shall be responsible, at its sole expense, for the cost of any alterations or improvements to the Property required by applicable law (including the ADA), ordinances, notices, orders, rules, regulations and requirements (“Required Alterations”) which arise by virtue of any alterations made by Tenant or its employees, agents, contractors, licensees or invitees (“Agents”) or by any Use by Tenant or its Agents other than specified in Section 1(d) above. Landlord shall be responsible, at its sole expense, for all other Required Alterations.

Tenant shall deliver to Landlord copies of all Material Safety Data Sheets or other written information prepared by manufacturers, importers or suppliers of any entity regulating any Restricted Activities.

(d) Notice. If at any time during or after the Term, Tenant becomes aware of any inquiry, investigation or proceeding regarding the Restricted Activities or becomes aware of any claims, actions or investigations regarding the ADA, Tenant shall give Landlord written notice, within 5 days after first learning thereof, providing all available information and copies of any notices.

5. Term and Termination.

(a) The Initial Term of this Lease shall commence on the Commencement Date and shall end at 11:59 p.m. on the last day of the Initial Term (the “Expiration Date”), without the necessity for notice from either party, unless sooner terminated in accordance with the terms hereof. Tenant shall confirm the Commencement Date and Expiration Date by executing a lease commencement certificate in the form attached as Exhibit “B”. In addition to the Initial Term, Tenant will have two (2) one-year options to renew this Lease (“Extended Term”). Tenant may exercise each option to renew the lease for an additional year provided Landlord and Tenant have agreed to the Annual Rental Rate for the option year being exercised. The parties to this Lease have agreed that the Annual Rental Rate for any option year shall in no event be less than one hundred and three (103%) percent of the prior Annual Rental Rate. In the event the parties are unable to agree to the Annual Rental Rate, then the lease shall not be renewed. Landlord shall have no responsibility or liability to Tenant in the event the parties are unable to agree to the Annual Rental Rate for each option year. Any and all exercises of an option shall be in writing given by Tenant at least ninety (90) days prior to the then-current expiration date, and a writing setting forth the agreed Annual Rental Rate applicable to any Extended Term shall be executed by both Parties and incorporated into this Lease as an amendment thereto.

(b) Tenant shall have the option of termination this Lease at any time upon ninety (90) days prior written notice to Landlord provided that, unless otherwise agreed by the parties, Tenant shall pay, as an early termination fee and not as a penalty, (x) if such termination occurs during the first year of the Term one (1) full year’s Rent, and (y) if such termination occurs thereafter, the lesser of (i) six (6) months’ Rent and (ii) the Rent for the then-remaining Term of this Lease.

6. Annual Rent. Tenant agrees to pay to Landlord the Annual Rent in equal monthly installments in the amount set forth in Section 1(c) (as increased at the beginning of each option lease year as set forth in Section 1(c), in advance, on the first day of each calendar month during the Term, without notice, designates otherwise, provided that rent for the first full month shall be paid at the signing of this Lease. If the Commencement Date falls on a day other than the first day of a calendar month, the rent shall be apportioned pro rata on a per diem basis for the period from the Commencement Date until the first day of the following calendar month and shall be paid on or before the Commencement Date. As used in this Lease, the term “lease year” for any option year means the period from the anniversary of the Commencement Date if it falls on the first day of a calendar month and of the first day of the succeeding calendar month if it does not through the succeeding 12 full calendar months. This Lease as stated above is for an initial lease period of two (2) years plus any partial month between the Commencement Date and the first day of the next succeeding calendar month. For each exercisable Extended Term, the lease year shall mean the successive 12 month period thereafter.

7. Operation of Property; Expenses.

(a) Payment of Operating Expenses. Included in the Annual Rental Rate are the expenses for operating and maintaining the Premises which costs may include by way of example rather than limitation: insurance premiums, fees, impositions, maintenance, service contracts, management and administrative fees, governmental permits, overhead expenses, costs of furnishing water, sewer, gas, fuel, electricity, other utility services, janitorial service, trash removal, security services, landscaping and grounds maintenance, and the cost of any other items attributable to operating or maintaining any or all of the Property excluding any costs which under generally accepted accounting principles are capital expenditures; provided, however, that annual operating costs also shall include the annual amortization (over an assumed useful life of ten years) of the costs (including financing charges) of building improvements made by Landlord to the Property after the Commencement Date that are required by any governmental authority or for the purpose of reducing operating expenses or directly enhancing the safety

of tenants in the Building generally. Items specifically not included in the expenses for operating the Property shall be associated with operating each of these examples. Such expenses shall be the responsibility of Tenant, separate and apart from the amount owed Landlord under this Agreement. Landlord agrees to make access to telecommunications services available, to the same extent as they are at the Commencement Date of this Lease, however the cost of such service are in addition to the Annual Rental Rate and is borne by the Tenant.

(b) Impositions. As used in this Lease “impositions” refer to all levies, taxes (including sales taxes and gross receipt taxes) and assessments, which are applicable to the Term, and which are imposed by any authority or under any law, ordinance or regulation thereof, or pursuant to any recorded covenants or agreements, and the reasonable cost of contesting any of the foregoing, upon or with respect to the Property or any part thereof, or any improvements thereto. Florida Statutes §212.031 requires a sales tax on monthly rental. Such tax is currently six percent (6%) of the monthly rental amount. Tenant shall pay to Landlord with the monthly payment of Rent any imposition imposed directly upon this Lease or the Rent (defined in Section 7(g)) or amounts payable by any subtenants or other occupants of the Premises, or against Landlord because of Landlord’s estate or interest herein.

(i) Nothing herein contained shall be interpreted as requiring Tenant to pay any income, excess profits or corporate stock tax imposed or assessed upon Landlord.

(ii) If it shall not be lawful for Tenant to reimburse Landlord for any of the impositions, the Annual Rent shall be increased by the amount of the portion of such imposition allocable to Tenant, unless prohibited by law.

(i) Property. Landlord shall keep in effect insurance against loss or damage to the Building or the Property by fire and such other casualties as may be included within fire, extended coverage and special form insurance covering the full replacement cost of the Building (but excluding coverage of Tenant’s personal property in, and any alterations by Tenant to, the Premises), and such other insurance as Landlord may reasonably deem appropriate or as may be required from time-to-time by any mortgagee.

(ii) Liability. Tenant, at its own expense, shall keep in effect comprehensive general public liability insurance with respect to the Premises and the Property, including contractual liability insurance, with such limits of liability for bodily injury (including death) and property damage as $1,000,000 per occurrence and a general aggregate limit of not less than $2,000,000 (which aggregate shall not limit the liability of Tenant hereunder. The policy of comprehensive general public liability insurance also shall name Landlord and Landlord’s agent as additional insured parties with respect to the Premises, shall be written on an “occurrence” basis and not on a “claims made” basis, shall provide that it is primary with respect to any policies carried by Landlord and that any coverage carried by Landlord shall be excess insurance, shall provide that it shall not be cancelable or reduced without at least 30 days prior written notice to Landlord and shall be issued in form satisfactory to Landlord. The insurer shall be a responsible insurance carrier which is authorized to issue such insurance and licensed to do business in the state in which the Property is located and which has at all times during the Term a rating of no less than A VII in the most current edition of Best’s Insurance Reports. Tenant shall deliver to Landlord on or before the Commencement Date, and subsequently renewals of, a certificate of insurance evidencing such coverage and the waiver of subrogation described below.

(iii) Waiver of Subrogation. Landlord and Tenant shall have included in their respective property insurance policies waivers of their respective insurers’ right of subrogation

against the other party. If such a waiver should be unobtainable or unenforceable, then such policies of insurance shall state expressly that such policies shall not be invalidated if, before a casualty, the insured waives the right of recovery against any party responsible for a casualty covered by the policy.

(iv) Increase of Premiums. Tenant agrees not to do anything or fail to do anything which will increase the cost of Landlord’s insurance or which will prevent Landlord from procuring policies (including public liability) from companies and in form satisfactory to Landlord. If any breach of the preceding sentence by Tenant causes the rate of fire or other insurance to be increased, Tenant shall pay the amount of such increase as additional rent promptly upon being billed.

(d) Repairs and Maintenance; Common Areas; Building Management.

(i) Tenant at its sole expense shall maintain the Premises in a neat and orderly condition.

(ii) Landlord shall make available to Tenant Common Areas generally made available to other tenants. “Common Areas “ means all areas and facilities outside the Premises and within the exterior boundary line of the Property that are designated by Landlord from time to time for the general non-exclusive use of Landlord, Tenant and other tenants of the Property and their respective employees, suppliers, customers and invitees, including, but not limited to, common entrances, lobbies, corridors, stairwells, public restrooms, cafeterias, elevators, parking areas, roadways and sidewalks located in Building C. Tenants shall request Landlord’s prior written consent to use or occupy any other area located on Campus. As used herein, the term “Campus” shall mean the buildings and surrounding areas located in close proximity of the Premises and generally used and occupied by Landlord.

(iii) Landlord shall make all necessary repairs to the Premises, the Common Areas and any other improvements located on the Property, provided that Landlord shall have no responsibility to make any repair until Landlord receives written notice of the need for such repair. Landlord shall operate and manage the Property and shall maintain all Common Areas and any paved area appurtenant to the Property in a clean and orderly condition. Landlord reserves the right to make alterations to the Common Area from time to time.

(iv) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Landlord shall not bear the expense of any repairs and replacements to the Property including the Premise requested by and for the Tenant’s use, occupancy or alteration of, or made at the sole expense of Tenant to the extent not covered by any applicable insurance proceeds to Landlord. Tenant shall not bear the expense of any repairs or replacements to the Property arising out of or caused by Landlord’s or any other tenant’s use, occupancy or alteration of, or any other tenant’s installation in or upon, the Property or by any act or omission of any other tenant or any other tenant’s Agents.

(e) Utilities.

(i) Landlord will furnish the Premises with electricity, heating and air conditioning for the normal use and occupancy of the Premises as general offices between 7:00 a.m. and 8:00 p.m., Monday through Friday (legal holidays excepted). If Tenant shall require electricity or install electrical equipment including but not limited to electrical heating, refrigeration equipment, electronic data processing machines, or machines or equipment using current in excess of 110 volts, which will in any way increase the amount of electricity usually furnished for use as general office space, or if Tenant shall attempt to use the Premises in such a manner that the services to be furnished by Landlord would be required during periods other than or in addition to business hours referred to above, Tenant will obtain Landlord’s prior written approval and will pay for the resulting additional direct expense, including the expense resulting from the installation of such equipment and meters, as additional rent promptly upon being billed. Landlord shall not be responsible or liable for any interruption in utility service, nor shall such interruption affect the continuation or validity of the lease.

(ii) If at any time utility services supplied to the Premises are separately metered, the cost of installing Tenant’s meter and the cost of such separately metered utility service shall be paid by Tenant promptly upon being billed.

(f) Janitorial Services. Landlord will provide Tenant with trash removal and janitorial services five (5) days a week, Monday through Friday.

(g) “Rent.” The term “Rent” as used in this Lease means the Annual Rent (which includes the Operating Expenses), Florida Taxes (see paragraph 7(b) herein) and any other additional rent or sums payable by Tenant to Landlord pursuant to this Lease, all of which shall be deemed rent for purposes of Landlord’s rights and remedies with respect thereto. Tenant shall pay all Rent to Landlord within 30 days after Tenant is billed, unless otherwise provided in this Lease, and interest shall accrue on all sums due but unpaid.

8. Signs. Landlord, at Tenant’s expense, will place Tenant’s name and suite number on the Building standard sign and on or beside the entrance door to the Premises. Except for signs which are located wholly within the interior of the Premises and not visible from the exterior of the Premises, no signs shall be placed on the Property without the prior written consent of Landlord. All signs installed by Tenant shall be maintained by Tenant in good condition and Tenant shall remove all such signs at the termination of this Lease and shall repair any damage caused by such installation, existence or removal.

9. Alterations and Fixtures.

(a) Subject to Section 10, Tenant shall have the right to install its trade fixtures in the Premises, provided that no such installation or removal thereof shall affect any structural portion of the Property nor any utility lines, communications lines, equipment or facilities in the Building serving any tenant other than Tenant. At the expiration or termination of this Lease or any Extended Term, at the option of Landlord or Tenant, Tenant shall remove such installation(s) and, in the event of such removal, Tenant shall repair any damage caused by such installation or removal; if Tenant, with Landlord’s written consent, elects not to remove such installation(s) at the expiration or termination of this Lease, all such installation shall remain on the Property and become the property of Landlord without payment by Landlord.

(b) Except for non-structural changes which do not exceed $5,000 in the aggregate, Tenant shall not make or permit to be made any alterations to the Premises without Landlord’s prior written consent. Tenant shall pay the costs of any required architectural/engineering reviews. In making any alterations, (i) Tenant shall deliver to Landlord the plans, specifications and necessary permits, together with certificates evidencing that Tenant’s contractors and subcontractors have adequate insurance coverage naming Landlord and Landlord’s agent as additional insureds, at least 10 (ten) days prior to commencement thereof, (ii) such alterations shall not impair the structural strength of the Building or any other improvements or reduce the value of the Property or affect any utility lines, communications lines, equipment or facilities in the Building serving any tenant other than Tenant, (iii) Tenant shall comply with Section 10 and (iv) the occupants of the Building and of any adjoining property shall not be disturbed thereby. All alterations to the Premises by Tenant shall be the property of Tenant until the expiration or termination of this Lease; at that time all such alterations shall remain on the Property and become the property of Landlord without payment by Landlord unless Landlord gives written notice to Tenant to remove the same, in which event Tenant will remove such alterations and repair any resulting damage. At Tenant’s request prior to Tenant making any alterations, Landlord shall notify Tenant in writing, whether Tenant is required to remove such alterations at the expiration or termination of this Lease.

10. Mechanics’ Liens. Tenant shall not suffer any mechanic’s lien to be filed against the Premises by reason of work, labor, services or materials performed or furnished to Tenant or anyone holding the Premises, or any part hereof, through or under Tenant. If any mechanic’s lien or any notice of intention to file a mechanic’s lien shall at any time be filed against the Premises, Tenant shall at Tenant’s cost, within fourteen (14) days after knowledge or notice of the filing of any mechanic’s lien, cause the same to be removed or discharged of record by payment, bond, order of a court of competent jurisdiction, or otherwise.

If Tenant shall fail to remove or discharge any mechanic’s lien or any notice of intention to file a mechanic’s lien within the prescribed time, then in addition to any other right or remedy of Landlord, Landlord may, at its option, procure the removal or discharge of the same by payment or bond or otherwise. Any amount paid by Landlord for such purpose, together with all legal and other expenses of Landlord in procuring the removal or discharge or such lien or notice of intention and together with interest thereon at the highest permissible rate, shall be and become due and payable by Tenant to Landlord as additional rent, and in the event of Tenant’s failure to pay therefor within fifteen (15) days after demand, the same shall be added to and be due and payable with the next month’s rent.

Nothing contained in this Lease shall be construed as consent on the part of Landlord to subject Landlord’s estate in the Premises to any lien or liability arising out of Tenant’s use or occupancy of the premises.

11. Landlord’s Right to Relocate Tenant; Right of Entry.

(a) Landlord may cause Tenant to relocate from the Premises to a comparable space (“Relocation Space”) within the Building or within a five (5) mile radius of the Building by giving written notice to Tenant at least sixty (60) days in advance, provided that Landlord shall pay for all reasonable costs of such relocation. Such relocation shall not terminate, modify or otherwise affect this Lease except that “Premises” shall refer to the Relocation Space rather than the location identified in Section 1(a) and the Rent shall be proportionately reduced if the net usable area in the Relocation Space is smaller than that of the Premises.

(b) Tenant shall permit Landlord and its Agents to enter the Premises at all reasonable times following reasonable notice (except in the event of an emergency) for the purpose of inspection, maintenance or making repairs, alterations or additions as well as to exhibit the Premises for the purpose of sale or mortgage and, during the last 12 months of the Term, to exhibit the Premises to any prospective tenant. Landlord will make reasonable efforts not to inconvenience Tenant in exercising the foregoing rights, but shall not be liable for any loss of occupation or quiet enjoyment thereby occasioned.

(c) Tenant shall be responsible for all costs incurred by Tenant when Tenant vacates or relocates from the leased Property or any moves made within the Property when such move is made at the sole request and convenience of Tenant.

12. Damage by Fire or Other Casualty.

(a) If the Property or Building shall be damaged or destroyed by fire or other casualty, Tenant promptly shall notify Landlord and Landlord, subject to the conditions set forth in this Section 12, shall repair such damage and restore the Premises to substantially the same condition in which they were immediately prior to such damage or destruction, but not including the repair, restoration or replacement

of the fixtures or alterations installed by Tenant. Landlord shall notify Tenant in writing, within 30 days after the date of the casualty, if Landlord anticipates that the restoration will take more than 180 days from the date of the casualty to complete; in such event, either Landlord or Tenant may terminate this Lease effective as of the date of casualty by giving written notice to the other within 10 days after Landlord’s notice.

(b) Landlord shall maintain a 12 month rental coverage endorsement or other comparable form of coverage as part of its fire extended coverage and special form insurance. Tenant will receive an abatement of its Rent to the extent the Premises are rendered untenantable as determined by the carrier providing the rental coverage endorsement.

13. Condemnation.

(a) Termination. If (i) all of the Premises are taken by a condemnation or otherwise for any public or quasi-public use, (ii) any part of the Premises is so taken and the remainder thereof is insufficient for the reasonable operation of Tenant’s business or (iii) any of the Property is so taken, and, in Landlord’s opinion, it would be impractical or the condemnation proceeds are insufficient to restore the remainder of the Property, then this Lease shall terminate and all unaccrued obligations hereunder shall cease as of the day before possession is taken by the condemnor.

(b) Partial Taking. If there is a condemnation and this Lease has not been terminated pursuant to Section 13(a), (i) Landlord shall restore the Building and the improvements which are a part of the Premises to a condition and size as nearly comparable as reasonably possible to the condition and size thereof immediately prior to the date upon which the condemnor took possession and (ii) the obligations of Landlord and Tenant shall be unaffected by such condemnation except that there shall be an equitable abatement of the Rent according to the rental value of the Premises before and after the date upon which the condemnor took possession and/or the date Landlord completes such restoration.

(c) Award. In the event of a condemnation affecting Tenant, Tenant shall have the right to make a claim against the condemnor for moving expenses and business dislocation damages to the extent that such claim does not reduce the sums otherwise payable by the condemnor to Landlord. Except as aforesaid and except as set forth in (d) below, Tenant hereby assigns all claims against the condemnor to Landlord.

(d) Temporary Taking. No temporary taking of the Premises shall terminate this Lease or give Tenant any right to any rental abatement. Any award for such temporary taking during the Term shall be applied first, to Landlord’s costs of collection and, second, on account of sums owing to Tenant hereunder, and if such amounts applied on account of sums owing by Tenant hereunder should exceed the entire amount owing by Tenant for the remainder of the Term, the excess will be paid to Tenant.

14. Non-Abatement of Rent. Except as otherwise expressly provided as to damage by fire or other casualty in Section 12(b) and as to condemnation in Section 13(b), there shall be no abatement or reduction of the Rent for any cause whatsoever, and this Lease shall not terminate, and Tenant shall not be entitled to surrender the Premises.

15. Indemnification of Landlord. (a) Subject to Sections 7(c)(iii) and 16, Tenant will protect, indemnify and hold harmless Landlord and its Agents from and against any and all claims, actions, damages, liability and expense (including fees of attorneys, investigators and experts) in connection with loss of life, personal injury or damage to property in or about the Premises arising out of the occupancy or use of the Premises by Tenant or its Agents or occasioned wholly or in part by any act or omission of Tenant or its Agents, whether prior to, during or after the Term, except to the extent such loss, injury or

damage was caused by the negligence of Landlord or its Agents. In case any action or proceeding is brought against Landlord and/or its Agents by reason of the foregoing, Tenant, at its expense, shall resist and defend such action or proceeding, or cause the same to be resisted and defended by counsel (reasonably acceptable to Landlord and its Agents) designated by the insurer whose policy covers such occurrence or by counsel designated by Tenant and approved by Landlord and its Agents. Tenant’s obligations pursuant to this Section 15 shall survive the expiration or termination of this Lease.

(b) Landlord shall indemnify and hold harmless Tenant, its agents and employees from any and all damages, claims, causes of action, fines, penalties, losses, liabilities, judgment and expenses directly incurred as a result of (i) claims advanced by third persons and arising out of Landlord’s, its employees, or agent’s sole negligence, which is, in any manner connected with the use, ownership or occupancy of the property herein; (ii) claims arising from any loss occurring within the Common Area of the Premises, of which Tenant has either no control under the terms of the Lease or where none of Tenants actions or the actions of its employees, agents or invitees contributed to such claim.

16. Waiver of Claims. Landlord and Tenant each hereby waives all claims for recovery against the other for any loss or damage which may be inflicted upon the property of such party even if such loss or damage shall be brought about by the fault or negligence of the other party or its Agents; provided, however, that such waiver by Landlord shall not be effective with respect to any liability of Tenant described in
Sections 4(c) and 7(d) (iii).

17. Quiet Enjoyment. Landlord covenants that Tenant, upon performing all of its covenants, agreements and conditions of this Lease, shall have quiet and peaceful possession of the Premises as against anyone claiming by or through Landlord, subject, however, to the exceptions, reservations and conditions of this Lease.

18. Assignment and Subletting.

(a) Limitation. Tenant shall not transfer this Lease, voluntarily, involuntarily, or by operation of law, without the prior written consent of Landlord. Any attempted transfer shall be null and void at the option of Landlord, and Landlord may exercise any or all of its rights under Section 23. A consent to one transfer shall not be deemed to be a consent to any subsequent transfer. The term “transfer” shall include any sublease, assignment, license or concession agreement, change in ownership or control of Tenant (other than any such change resulting from any action taken by Landlord in its capacity as a stockholder in Tenant or from any action taken by Tenant approved by the Board of Directors of Tenant at a time when Landlord was entitled to designate a majority of the directors of Tenant), mortgage or hypothecation of this Lease or Tenant’s interest therein or in all or a portion of the Premises.

(b) Offer to Landlord. Tenant acknowledges that the terms of this Lease, including the Rent, have been based on the understanding that Tenant physically shall occupy the Premises for the entire Term. Therefore, upon Tenant’s request to transfer all or a portion of the Premises, at the option of Landlord, Tenant and Landlord shall execute an amendment to this Lease removing such space from the Premises. Tenant shall be relieved of any liability with respect to such space and Landlord shall have the right to lease such space to any party, including Tenant’s proposed transferee.

(c) Conditions. Notwithstanding the above, the following shall apply to any transfer, with or without Landlord’s consent:

(i) As of the date of any transfer, Tenant shall not be in default under this Lease nor shall any act or omission have occurred which would constitute a default with the giving of notice and/or the passage of time.

(ii) No transfer shall relieve Tenant of its obligation to pay the Rent and to perform all its other obligations hereunder. The acceptance of Rent by Landlord from any person shall not be deemed to be a waiver by Landlord of any provision of this Lease or to be a consent to any transfer.

(iii) Each transfer shall be by a written instrument in form and substance satisfactory to Landlord which shall (A) include an assumption of liability by any transferee of all Tenant’s obligations and the transferee’s ratification of and agreement to be bound by all the provisions of this Lease, (B) afford Landlord the right of direct action against the transferee pursuant to the same remedies as are available to Landlord against Tenant and (C) be executed by Tenant and the transferee.

(iv) Tenant shall pay, within 10 days of receipt of an invoice which shall be no less than $250, Landlord’s reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs in connection with the review, processing and documentation of any transfer for which Landlord’s consent is requested.

19. Subordination; Mortgagee’s Rights.

(a) This Lease shall be subordinate to any first mortgage or other primary encumbrance now or hereafter affecting the Premises. Although the subordination is self-operative, within 10 days after written request, Tenant shall execute and deliver any further instruments confirming such subordination of this Lease and any further instruments of attornment that may be desired by any such mortgagee or Landlord. However, any mortgagee may at any time subordinate its mortgage to this Lease, without Tenant’s consent, by giving written notice to Tenant, and thereupon this Lease shall be deemed prior to such mortgage without regard to the respective dates of execution and delivery; provided, however, that such subordination shall not affect any mortgagee’s right of condemnation awards, casualty insurance proceeds, intervening liens or any right which shall arise between the recording of such mortgage and the execution of this Lease.

(b) It is understood and agreed that any mortgagee shall not be liable to Tenant for any funds paid by Tenant to Landlord unless such funds actually have been transferred to such mortgagee by Landlord.

(c) Notwithstanding the provisions of Sections 12 and 13 above, Landlord’s obligation to restore the Premises after a casualty or condemnation shall be subject to the consent and prior rights of Landlord’s first mortgagee.

20. Recording; Tenant’s Certificate. Tenant shall not record this Lease or a memorandum thereof without Landlord’s prior written consent. Within 10 days after Landlord’s written request from time to time:

(a) Tenant shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to Landlord a written statement certifying the Commencement Date and Expiration Date of this Lease, that this Lease is in full force and effect and has not been modified and otherwise as set forth in the form of estoppel certificate reasonably requested by Landlord and/or such other certifications as may be requested by a mortgagee or purchaser. Tenant understands that its failure to execute such documents may cause Landlord serious financial damage by causing the failure of a financing or sale transaction.

(b) Tenant shall furnish to Landlord, Landlord’s mortgagee, prospective mortgagee or purchaser reasonably requested financial information.

21. Surrender; Abandoned Property.

(a) Subject to the terms of Section 9(b), 12(a) and 13(b), at the expiration or termination of this Lease, Tenant promptly shall yield up in the same condition, order and repair in which they are required to be kept throughout the Term, including any exercised options, the Premises and any improvements thereto, and all fixtures and equipment serving the Building, ordinary wear and tear excepted.

(b) Upon or prior to the expiration or termination of this Lease, Tenant shall remove any personal property from the Property. Any personal property remaining thereafter shall be deemed conclusively to have been abandoned, and Landlord, at Tenant’s expense, may remove, store, sell or otherwise dispose of such property in such manner as Landlord may see fit and/or Landlord may retain such property as its property. If any part thereof shall be sold, then Landlord may receive and retain the proceeds of such sale and apply the same, at its option, against the expenses of the sale, the cost of moving and storage and any Rent due under this Lease.

(c) If Tenant, or any person claiming through Tenant, shall continue to occupy the Premises after the expiration or termination of this Lease or any renewal thereof, such occupancy shall be deemed to be under a month-to-month tenancy under the same terms and conditions set forth in this Lease, except that the Rent shall be increased 150% from the then current rate and in no event shall such month-to-month tenancy exceed two (2) months or sixty (60) days. Anything to the contrary notwithstanding, any holding over by Tenant without Landlord’s prior written consent shall constitute a default hereunder and shall be subject to all the remedies available to Landlord.

22. Curing Tenant’s Defaults. If Tenant shall be in default in the performance of any of its obligations hereunder, Landlord without any obligation to do so, in addition to any other rights it may have in law or equity, may elect to cure such default on behalf of Tenant after written notice (except in the case of emergency) to Tenant. Tenant shall reimburse Landlord upon demand for any sums paid or costs incurred by Landlord in curing such default, including interest thereon from the respective dates of Landlord incurring such costs, which sums and costs together with interest shall be deemed additional rent.

23. Defaults — Remedies.

(a) Defaults. It shall be an event of default:

(i) If Tenant does not pay in full when due any and all Rent;

(ii) If Tenant fails to observe and perform or otherwise breaches any other provision of this Lease;

(iii) If Tenant abandons the Premises, which shall be conclusively presumed if the Tenant fails to make the Monthly Rental Payment and the Premises remain unoccupied for more than 10 consecutive days; or

(iv) If Tenant becomes insolvent or bankrupt in any sense or makes a general assignment for the benefit of creditors or offers a settlement to creditors, or if a petition in bankruptcy or for reorganization or for an arrangement with creditors under any federal or state law is filed by or against

Tenant, or a xxxx in equity or other proceeding for the appointment of a receive for any of Tenant’s assets is commenced, or if any of the real or personal property of Tenant shall be levied upon; provided, however, that any proceeding brought by anyone other than Landlord or Tenant under any bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or similar law shall not constitute a default until such proceeding has continued unstayed for more than 60 consecutive days.

(b) Remedies. Then, and in any such event, Landlord shall have the following rights:

(i) To charge a late payment fee equal to the greater of $2,000 or 5% of any amount owed to Landlord pursuant to this Lease which is not paid within 15 days after the due date;

(ii) To enter and repossess the Premises, by breaking open locked doors if necessary, and remove all persons and all or any property therefrom, by action at law or otherwise, without being liable for prosecution or damages therefor, and Landlord may at Landlord’s option, make alterations and repairs in order to relet the Premises and relet all or any part(s) of the Premises for Tenant’s account. Tenant agrees to pay to Landlord on demand any deficiency that may arise by reason of such reletting. In the event of reletting without termination of this Lease, Landlord may at any time thereafter elect to terminate this Lease for such previous breach;

(iii) To accelerate the whole or any part of the Rent for the balance of the Term, and declare the same to be immediately due and payable;

(iv) To terminate this Lease and the Term without any right on the part of Tenant to save the forfeiture by payment of any sum due or by other performance of any condition, term or covenant broken;

(v) In the event of a breach or threatened breach by Tenant of any of the covenants or provisions hereof, Landlord shall have the right of injunction and the right to invoke any remedy allowed at law or in equity as if re-entry, summary proceedings and other remedies were not herein provided for;

(vi) No right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to Landlord is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy herein or by law provided but each shall be cumulative and in addition to every other right or remedy given herein or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute; or

(vii) The right to pursue the remedies herein provided against Tenant and to enforce all of the other provisions of this Lease may, at the option of any assignee of this Lease, be exercised by any assignee of the Landlord’s right, title and interest in this Lease in his, her or their own name, any statute, rule of court, custom, or practice to the contrary notwithstanding.

(c) Grace Period. Notwithstanding anything hereinabove stated, neither party will exercise any available right because of any default of the other, except those remedies contained in subsection (b)(i) of this Section, unless such party shall have first given 10 days written notice thereof to the defaulting party, and the defaulting party shall have failed to cure the default within such period; provided, however, that;

(i) No such notice shall be required if Tenant fails to comply with the provisions of Sections 10 or 20(a), in the case of emergency as set forth in Section 22 or in the event of any default enumerated in subsections (a)(iii) and (iv) of this Section.

(ii) Landlord shall not be required to give such 10 days notice more than 2 times during any 12-month period.

(iii) If the default consists of something other than the failure to pay money which cannot reasonably be cured within 10 days, neither party will exercise any right if the defaulting party begins to cure the default within the 10 days and continues actively and diligently in good faith to completely cure said default.

(iv) Tenant agrees that any notice given by Landlord pursuant to this Section which is served in compliance with Section 27 shall be adequate notice for the purpose of Landlord’s exercise of any available remedies.

(d) Non-Waiver; Non-Exclusive. No waiver by Landlord of any breach by Tenant shall be a waiver of any subsequent breach, nor shall any forbearance by Landlord to seek a remedy for any breach by Tenant be a waiver by Landlord of any rights and remedies with respect to such or any subsequent breach. Efforts by Landlord to mitigate the damages caused by Tenant’s default shall not constitute a waiver of Landlord’s right to recover damages hereunder. No right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to Landlord is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy provided herein or by law, but each shall be cumulative and in addition to every other right or remedy given herein or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity. No payment by Tenant or receipt or acceptance by Landlord of a lesser amount than the total amount due Landlord under this Lease shall be deemed to be other than on account, nor shall any endorsement or statement on any check or payment be deemed an accord and satisfaction, and Landlord may accept such check or payment without prejudice to Landlord’s right to recover the balance of Rent due, or Landlord right to pursue any other available remedy.

(e) Costs and Attorneys’ Fees. If either party commences an action against the other party arising out of or in connection with this Lease, the prevailing party shall be entitled to have and recover from the losing party attorneys’ fees, costs of suit, investigation expenses and discovery costs, including costs of appeal.

24. Representations and Covenants of Tenant. Tenant represents and covenants to Landlord that:

(a) The word “Tenant” as used herein includes the Tenant named above as well as its successors and permitted assigns, each of which shall be under the same obligations and liabilities and each of which shall have the same rights, privileges and powers as it would have possessed had it originally signed this Lease as Tenant. Each and every of the persons named above as Tenant shall be bound jointly and severally by the terms, covenants and agreements contained herein. However, no such rights, privileges or powers shall inure to the benefit of any assignee of Tenant immediate or remote, unless Tenant has complied with the terms of Section 18 and the assignment to such assignee is permitted or has been approved in writing by Landlord. Any notice required or permitted by the terms of this Lease may be given by or to any one of the persons named above as Tenant, and shall have the same force and effect as is given by or to all thereof.

(b) If Tenant is a corporation, partnership or any other form of business association or entity, Tenant is duly formed and in good standing, and has full corporate or partnership power and authority, as the case may be, to enter into this Lease and has taken all corporate or partnership action, as the case may be, necessary to carry out the transaction contemplated herein, so that when executed, this Lease constitutes a valid and binding obligation enforceable in accordance with its terms. Tenant shall provide Landlord with corporate resolutions or other proof in a form acceptable to Landlord, authorizing the execution of this Lease at the time of such execution.

25. Liability of Landlord. The word “Landlord” as used herein includes the Landlord named above as well as its successors and assigns, each of which shall have the same rights, remedies, powers, authorities and privileges as it would have had it originally signed this Lease as Landlord. Any such person or entity, whether or not named herein, shall have no liability hereunder after it ceases to hold title to the Premises except for obligations already accrued (and, as to any unapplied portion of Tenant’s Security Deposit, Landlord shall be relieved of all liability therefor upon transfer of such portion to its successor in interest) and Tenant shall look solely to Landlord’s successor in interest for the performance of the covenants and obligations of the Landlord hereunder which thereafter shall accrue. Neither any principal of Landlord nor any owner of the Property other than Landlord, whether disclosed or undisclosed, shall have any personal liability with respect to any of the provisions of this Lease or the Premises. No mortgagee or lessor succeeding to the interest of Landlord hereunder (either in terms of ownership or possessory rights) shall be (a) liable for any previous act or omission of a prior landlord, (b) subject to any rental offsets or defenses against a prior landlord or (c) bound by an amendment of this Lease made without its written consent, or by payment by Tenant of Rent in advance in excess of one monthly installment.

26. Interpretation; Definitions.

(a) Captions. The captions in this Lease are for convenience only and are not a part of this Lease and do not in any way define, limit, describe or amplify the terms and provisions of this Lease or the scope of intent thereof.

(b) Entire Agreement. This Lease represents the entire agreement between hereto and there are no collateral or oral agreements or understandings between Landlord and Tenant with respect to the Premises or the Property. No rights, easement or licenses are acquired in the Property or any land adjacent to the Property by Tenant by implication or otherwise except as expressly set forth in the provisions of this Lease. This Lease shall not be modified in any manner except by an instrument in writing executed by the parties. The masculine (or neuter) pronoun and the singular number shall include the masculine, feminine and neuter genders and the singular and plural number. The word “including” followed by any specific item(s) is deemed to refer to examples rather than to be words of limitations. Both parties having participated fully and equally in the negotiation and preparation of this Lease, this Lease shall not be more strictly construed, nor any ambiguities in this Lease resolved, against either Landlord or Tenant.

(c) Covenants. Each covenant, agreement, obligation, term, condition or other provision herein contained shall be deemed and construed as a separate and independent covenant of the party bound by, undertaking or making the same, not dependent on any other provision of this Lease unless otherwise expressly provided. All of the terms and conditions set forth in this Lease shall apply throughout the Term unless otherwise expressly set forth herein.

(d) Interest. Wherever interest is required to be paid hereunder, such interest shall be at the highest rate permitted under law but not in excess of 15% per annum.

(e) Severability; Governing Law. If any provisions of this Lease shall be declared unenforceable in any respect, such unenforceability shall not affect any other provision of this Lease, and each such provision shall be deemed to be modified, if possible, in such a manner as to render it enforceable and to preserve to the extent possible the intent of the parties as set forth herein. This Lease shall be construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the state in which the Property is located.

(f) “Mortgage” and “Mortgagee.” The word “Mortgage” as used herein includes any lien or encumbrance on the Premises of the Property or on any part of or interest in or appurtenance to any of the foregoing, including without limitation any ground rent or ground lease if Landlord’s interest is or

becomes a leasehold estate. The word “mortgage” as used herein includes the holder of any mortgage, including any ground lessor if Landlord’s interest is or becomes a leasehold estate. Wherever any right is given to a mortgagee that right may be exercised on behalf of such mortgagee by any representative or servicing agent of such mortgagee.

(g) “Person.” The word “Person” is used herein to include a natural person, a partnership, a corporation, an association and any other form of business association or entity.

27. Notices. Any notice or other communication under this Lease shall be in writing and addressed to Landlord or Tenant at their respective addresses specified at the beginning of this Lease, except that after the Commencement Date Tenant’s address shall be at the premises (or to such other address as either may designate by notice to the other), with a copy to any mortgagee or other party designated by Landlord. Each notice or other communication shall be deemed given if sent by prepaid overnight delivery service or by certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid or in any other manner, with delivery in any case evidenced by a receipt, and shall be deemed received on the day of actual receipt by the intended recipient or on the business day delivery is refused. The giving of notice by Landlord’s attorneys, representatives and agents under this Section shall be deemed to be the acts of Landlord; however, the foregoing provisions governing the date on which a notice is deemed to have been received shall mean and refer to the date on which a party to this Lease, and not its counsel or other recipient to which a copy of the notice may be sent, is deemed to have received the notice.

28. Security Deposit. Intentionally Deleted.

29. Radon Gas. Radon is a naturally occurring radioactive gas that, when it has accumulated in a building in sufficient quantities may present health risks to persons who are exposed to it over time. Levels of radon that exceed federal and state guidelines have been found in buildings in Florida. Additional information regarding radon and radon testing may be obtained from your county public health unit.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, and in consideration of the mutual entry into this Lease and for other good and valuable consideration and intending to be legally bound, Landlord and Tenant have executed this Lease.

TRANSITION SERVICES AGREEMENT

This TRANSITION SERVICES AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”), dated as of [Closing Date] (the “Effective Date”), is made by and between XXXXXX CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation (“Harris”), and XXXXXX STRATEX NETWORKS, INC., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”).

RECITALS

WHEREAS, Harris and Stratex Networks, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Stratex”), have entered into a Formation, Contribution and Merger Agreement, dated as of September 5, 2006 (the “Formation Agreement”), pursuant to which the Company was formed to acquire Stratex pursuant to the Merger (as defined in the Formation Agreement) and to receive the Contributed Assets (as defined in the Formation Agreement) from Xxxxxx in the Contribution Transaction (as defined in the Formation Agreement), in each case on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Formation Agreement; and

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the mutual covenants in the Agreements, the parties agree as follows:

ARTICLE I
SERVICES

Section 1.01 Definitions. All capitalized terms used but not defined in this Agreement shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Formation Agreement; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries shall be deemed to be a Subsidiary or Affiliate of Xxxxxx or any of its other Subsidiaries or Affiliates for purposes of this Agreement.

Section 1.02 Provision of Services. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, Xxxxxx shall, or shall cause one of its Affiliates to, provide to the Company and its Affiliates, for use in connection with the MCD Business as such business is conducted by the Company following the Closing, each of the Services described on Schedule I attached to this Agreement (each, a “Service” and collectively, the “Services”), commencing on the date of this Agreement and continuing through the Term (as defined in Section 4.01 of this Agreement) unless (a) otherwise specified for a particular Service on Schedule I, (b) a particular Service is terminated in accordance with to Section 4.02 or Section 4.03, (c) otherwise mutually agreed to by the parties in writing, or (d) this Agreement is terminated in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof prior to the expiration of the Term.

Section 1.03 Quality and Scope of Services. The Services shall be performed in a manner, amount, and quality substantially consistent with the manner, amount or quality of the Services as was being provided by Xxxxxx to the MCD Business during the six-month period

prior to the Effective Date, and in no event shall Xxxxxx shall have an obligation to perform any Service in any other manner, amount or quality (enhanced, increased or otherwise) unless expressly so specified in Schedule I with respect to a particular Service (including any advantage of systems, equipment, facilities, training, services or improvements procured, obtained or made by Xxxxxx after the Effective Date). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, with respect to any Service, Xxxxxx may, in its sole discretion and at no additional charge to the Company, (i) perform such Service substantially consistent with any improved or enhanced practice as Xxxxxx xxxxx reasonably prudent, or (ii) otherwise make changes from time to time in the manner in which such Service is provided if (A) Xxxxxx is making similar changes in the manner in which such Service is provided for its own businesses, (B) Xxxxxx furnishes to the Company substantially the same notice Xxxxxx provides to its own businesses with respect to such changes, and (C) such changes do not create a substantial risk that such changes would reasonably result in a material disruption of the MCD Business as conducted by the Company following the Closing or in the incurrence of a material loss or liability by the Company.

Section 1.04 Additional Services; Initial Costs.

(a) In the event that the Company has determined that it requires an increase or enhancement in the manner, amount or quality of any Service as compared to the manner, amount or quality of such Service as was being provided by Xxxxxx to the MCD Business during the six-month period prior to the Effective Date, the Company shall notify Xxxxxx of such determination and request that Xxxxxx so increase or enhance the manner, amount or quality, as the case may be, of such Service. Following the receipt of such notification and request, Xxxxxx shall consider in good faith such request by the Company to provide such incremental services; provided, however, that this Section 1.04 shall in no way modify or increase Xxxxxx’ obligations under Section 1.03 and Xxxxxx shall have the sole right to determine the scope, terms and fees of such incremental services to the extent that Xxxxxx elects to increase or enhance the manner, amount or quality of any Service. If Xxxxxx agrees to provide such incremental services, Schedule I to this Agreement shall be amended, without further action by any party hereto, to reflect such incremental services, the scope and terms thereof and the Service Fees therefor (such fees to be determined in accordance with Section 2.01 as if such incremental services had been included on Schedule I as of the date hereof).

(b) If Xxxxxx or any of its Affiliates are required to (i) modify, increase, alter, obtain or otherwise change any software, process, method, asset or system (for example, because previously shared hardware capacity must be duplicated) or staffing or (ii) enhance their facilities or training, in order to perform the Services pursuant to Section 1.02, then Xxxxxx shall obtain the Company’s prior written approval of any additional cost or expense that Xxxxxx or any of its Affiliates expects to incur in connection with such increase or enhancement, and the Company shall pay any such additional cost or expense incurred by Xxxxxx or such Affiliate to provide such Services to the extent so approved by the Company, and if the Company does not approve such additional cost or expense, neither Xxxxxx nor any of its Affiliates shall have any obligation to provide the Services that require such increases for their respective performances.

Section 1.05 Disclaimer of Warranties. The Company acknowledges and agrees that Xxxxxx does not as part of its usual or regular conduct of business provide any or all of the Services, or any related services, on a commercial basis and that Xxxxxx does not warrant or

XXXXXX MAKES NO REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES AS TO THE QUALITY, SUITABILITY, AVAILABILITY, RELIABILITY, SECURITY, PERFORMANCE OR ADEQUACY OF THE SERVICES, AND XXXXXX MAKES NO EXPRESS, STATUTORY OR IMPLIED REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES, AT LAW OR IN EQUITY, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR ANY PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, QUIET ENJOYMENT, NO ENCUMBRANCES, SYSTEM INTEGRATION, ACCURACY, WORKMANLIKE EFFORT AND WARRANTIES ARISING THROUGH COURSE OF DEALING OR USAGE OF TRADE, AND XXXXXX HEREBY EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ANY AND ALL SUCH REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES. NO ORAL OR WRITTEN INFORMATION OR ADVICE GIVEN BY XXXXXX OR THEIR AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVES SHALL CREATE A WARRANTY OR IN ANY WAY INCREASE THE SCOPE OF XXXXXX’ OBLIGATIONS UNDER THIS AGREEMENT.

Section 1.06 Independent Contractor; Employees. The parties acknowledge and agree that each party is engaged in a business that is independent from that of the other party and that Xxxxxx shall perform the Services under this Agreement as an independent contractor with the sole right to supervise, manage, operate, control and direct the performance of the Services, including the right to designate which such resources Xxxxxx shall assign to perform any Service and the right to remove and replace any such resources at any time or, subject to Section 6.04(b), to designate a third party provider to perform such Service. Xxxxxx shall have and maintain exclusive control over all of its own employees, agents, subcontractors and operations as of the Effective Date. Xxxxxx shall be solely responsible for payment of compensation to its employees and for any injury to them in the course of their employment.

Section 1.07 Cooperation; Resources.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, Xxxxxx and the Company shall use good faith efforts to cooperate with each other in all matters relating to the provision and receipt of Services. Such good faith cooperation shall include, subject to Section 5.01, (i) exchanging information reasonably requested by the other party (including such information reasonably requested in connection with any internal or external audit, whether in the United States or any other country); (ii) providing electronic access to data systems used in connection with the Services; (iii) performing true-ups and adjustments; and (iv) making available, as reasonably requested by the other party, timely decisions, approvals and acceptances, and obtaining all consents, licenses, sublicenses or approvals necessary or desirable in order to permit each party to perform its obligations under this Agreement in a timely and efficient manner. The Company shall use reasonable best efforts to provide information and documentation sufficient for Xxxxxx to satisfy its obligations under this Agreement. In connection with the Services, the Company shall make reasonably available for consultation with Xxxxxx those employees and consultants or other service providers of the Company reasonably necessary for the effective provision by Xxxxxx of such Services.

(b) In the event any cost is incurred by Xxxxxx or any of its Affiliates in connection with obtaining or soliciting the consent of any third party in accordance with Section 1.07(a), such cost shall be paid by the Company and the Company shall reimburse Xxxxxx or any of its Affiliates, as the case may be, upon receipt of an invoice from Xxxxxx or its Affiliates, as applicable, with respect to such costs.

Section 1.08 Information From the Company; No Duty of Verification. Xxxxxx shall not be liable for any impairment of any Service caused by its not receiving information, either timely or at all, or by its receiving inaccurate or incomplete information from the Company that is required or reasonably requested by Xxxxxx.

Section 1.09 Exceptions to Xxxxxx’ Obligation to Perform.

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Xxxxxx shall not be required to provide such Service (i) to the extent the performance of such Service would require Xxxxxx to violate any applicable Law or would result in the breach of any contract or agreement due to a failure to obtain necessary consents, licenses, sublicenses, or approvals pursuant to Section 1.07; (ii) if Xxxxxx reasonably determines that providing such Service would result in a significant disruption of Xxxxxx’ or any of its Affiliates’ businesses or operations, would materially increase the scope of Xxxxxx’ responsibilities under this Agreement, or would be impracticable; or (iii) if any such Service unreasonably inhibits any employee of Xxxxxx or any of its Affiliates from discharging his or her obligations to Xxxxxx or any of its Affiliates or places any employee of Xxxxxx or any of its Affiliates in a conflict of interest with respect to his or her employment with Xxxxxx or any of its Affiliates. If Xxxxxx reasonably determines that it is unable to provide any Service in accordance with the terms of this Agreement as a result of the circumstances set forth in subparagraphs (i) through (iii) above, the parties shall cooperate in good faith to determine the best alternative approach.

alternative approach is found or the problem is otherwise resolved to the satisfaction of the parties, Xxxxxx shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide a comparable service, or in the case of data systems, support the function to which the data system relates or permit the Company to have reasonable access to the data system so that the Company can support the function itself. In such case, the parties shall negotiate in good faith to determine the amounts to be paid for any such comparable service (such fees to be determined in accordance with Section 2.01, but including any out-of-pocket costs incurred by Xxxxxx in providing or arranging for such comparable service). To the extent that Xxxxxx provides any comparable services to the Company pursuant to this Section 1.09 and the fees for any such comparable service (as described in the immediately preceding sentence) exceed the Service Fee for the corresponding Service that Xxxxxx determined it was unable to provide pursuant to this Section 1.09, the parties shall share such excess amount equally.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement:

(i) if the Company elects to decommission, replace, modify or change its information technology or communications systems, networks, equipment, configurations, processes, procedures, practices or any other aspect of its business relationship relating to a Service in a manner that adversely affects Xxxxxx’ ability to provide such Service as required hereunder, then Xxxxxx shall have no liability whatsoever with respect to the effectiveness or quality of such Service and shall be excused from performance of such Service until the Company mitigates the adverse effect of such change, and the Company shall be responsible for all direct expenses incurred by Xxxxxx in connection with the cessation and, if applicable, the resumption of such Service; and

(ii) Xxxxxx may suspend performance of any Service and the Company’s access to information technology or communications systems used by Xxxxxx if, in Xxxxxx’ reasonable judgment, the integrity, security or performance of such systems, or any data stored thereon, is being or is likely to be jeopardized by the activities of the Company, its employees, agents, representatives or contractors.

ARTICLE II
COST OF THE SERVICES

Section 2.01 Cost of the Services. In consideration of the provision of the Services, the Company shall pay to Xxxxxx, without set-off, a service fee for each such Service in the amount equal to (a) all internal costs allocated to the maximum extent reasonably practicable to the provision of such Service on a fully allocated basis consistent with current charges to the MCD Business, and (b) any additional out-of-pocket costs or expenses incurred by Xxxxxx in connection with the provision of such Service, including without limitation, payments or costs for an ongoing license, grant or provision of rights or services (all such fees with respect to each Service, the “Service Fee”, and collectively for all Services, the “Service Fees”), in each case, with respect to the relevant payment period set forth on Schedule I. The Company shall not be obligated to pay for any individual Service that was properly terminated pursuant to Section 4.02 or Section 4.03 unless the Company knowingly accepts the benefits of such Services following any such termination. The Company will pay Xxxxxx the Service Fee relating to any terminated Service until the effective date of termination.

Section 2.02 Manner and Timing of Payments. All payments shall be made, without set-off, within thirty (30) days after receipt of an invoice therefor. Xxxxxx shall send invoices on a monthly basis for payments to be made under this Agreement. Such invoices shall specify in reasonable detail the costs and expenses to be reimbursed by the Company, and Xxxxxx shall provide such supporting detail as the Company may from time to time reasonably request. All payments made by the Company under this Agreement shall be by wire transfer of the payment amount to Xxxxxx’ account identified in Exhibit A attached hereto or other account notified in writing by Xxxxxx to the Company, or if requested in writing by Xxxxxx, by check. All such payments shall be effective upon receipt. If payment on any invoice is not received as specified herein on the applicable date, such amount shall be subject to a late payment charge calculated at one percent (1%) per month from the due date until payment is made. If the Company disputes in good faith any portion of the amount due on any invoice, then the Company shall notify Xxxxxx in writing of the nature and basis of the dispute within 10 Business Days after the Company’s receipt of such invoice. If no notification is provided to Xxxxxx in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence, the invoiced amount shall be deemed to be accurate and correct and shall not be subject to dispute or contest by the Company or any Affiliate thereof. In the event notification is so provided to Xxxxxx, the parties shall use their reasonable best efforts to resolve the dispute prior to the payment due date.

Section 2.03 Taxes. Unless the Company provides Xxxxxx with a proper tax exemption certificate, the Company shall be responsible for and pay all applicable taxes (including without limitation any sales or value added taxes) that may be imposed with respect to or in connection with the provision of the Services, except for income taxes imposed on Xxxxxx for payment received with respect to such Services. To the extent Xxxxxx pays or is required to pay any such taxes that are the responsibility of the Company in accordance with the preceding sentence, the Company shall reimburse and indemnify Xxxxxx with respect to all amounts (including without limitation attorneys fees and costs of investigation) incurred in connection with the provision of such Services.

Section 2.04 Access to Records. Xxxxxx shall keep reasonable books and records of all Services for the Company to verify all charges made by Xxxxxx under this Agreement and to comply with all applicable requirements of Law. Xxxxxx shall, upon the Company’s reasonable request and at the Company’s sole cost and expense, make such books and records available to the Company, upon reasonable notice and during normal business hours for the sole purpose of the Company’s verifying any charges made by Xxxxxx hereunder or complying with any applicable requirement of Law. Nothing in this Section 2.04 or Section 4.05 shall require Xxxxxx to maintain its books and records relating to the Services provided to the Company under this Agreement indefinitely or in a manner, or for a length of time, inconsistent with the manner or length of time that it maintains its books and records with respect to its other businesses.

Section 3.04 Indemnification Procedures. The indemnification procedures set forth in Section 12.2(b) and Section 12.4 of the Formation Agreement shall apply equally to any claims for indemnification brought pursuant to this Article 3.

Section 3.05 Maximum Liability; Limitation of Damages. Except to the extent such liability arises directly out of a Xxxxxx Indemnified Person’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, the maximum aggregate liability of all Xxxxxx Indemnified Persons under or in connection with this Agreement, in any and all events, shall be limited in the aggregate to the Service Fees paid by the Company and actually received by Xxxxxx under this Agreement. NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING TO THE CONTRARY IN THIS AGREEMENT OR AT LAW OR IN EQUITY, IN NO EVENT SHALL ANY XXXXXX INDEMNIFIED PERSON BE LIABLE FOR ANY LOSSES THAT ARE NOT REASONABLY FORESEEABLE OR FOR ANY INCIDENTAL, INDIRECT, SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY, PUNITIVE, OR

The term of this Agreement shall commence on the Effective Date and shall terminate with respect to each Service as set forth on Schedule I with respect to such Service; provided that this Agreement shall terminate with respect to all Services provided hereunder upon the earlier of (a) such time when all Services to be provided by Xxxxxx under this Agreement have been terminated (or the terms of which have expired) in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and (b) the one year anniversary of the Effective Date (the “Term”), unless this Agreement is terminated sooner in accordance with Section 4.02 or Section 4.03 or extended by mutual written agreement of the parties, which agreement shall set forth the length of the desired extension, the scope of the Services to be provided during such extension, and any fees relating to such Services, including any increase in such fees. Any termination or expiration of this Agreement with respect to any particular Service shall not terminate this Agreement with respect to any other Service provided under this Agreement. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, upon written notice received by Xxxxxx at least 30 days prior to the termination of the Information Technology Services set forth on Schedule I in accordance with this Agreement, Xxxxxx shall continue to provide such Information Technology Services that were provided to the Company immediately prior to such termination for an additional six (6) month period; provided, however, that Section 2.01 shall not apply during such six (6) month period and the parties shall negotiate in good faith to determine a commercially reasonable fee for such services during that period.

Section 4.02 Termination for Default. In the event: (a) the Company shall fail to pay for any or all Services in accordance with the terms of this Agreement (and such payment is not disputed by the Company in good faith in accordance with Section 2.02); (b) of any default by either party, in any material respect, in the due performance or observance by it of any of the other terms, covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement; or (c) either party shall

Section 4.03 Termination by the Company. This Agreement may be terminated with respect to all Services by the Company prior to the end of the Term upon the expiration of the longer of (a) thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to Xxxxxx or (b) the longest notice period applicable to any Service that has not been terminated or expired in accordance with this Agreement at the time of such termination.

Section 4.04 Effect of Termination. Upon expiration or termination of this Agreement or of any Service provided hereunder, all rights and obligations of the parties shall cease under the Agreement with respect to all Services (in the case of a termination of the Agreement) or with respect to such Service (in the case of a termination of a particular Service), except as provided in Section 4.05 and except that the Company shall pay to Xxxxxx within thirty (30) calendar days of the expiration or termination of this Agreement or any Service, as the case may be, all amounts that are or that will become due and payable as a result of the provision of the Services pursuant to this Agreement in the manner set forth in Article 2. Upon notice of termination of this Agreement in accordance with its terms with respect to any Service for any reason or, in the event of expiration, for a reasonable period time prior to such expiration, Xxxxxx will reasonably cooperate, at the Company’s expense, in order to minimize the disruption to the business of both parties and to effect an orderly transition and transfer of the responsibility for such Service(s) to the Company or to a third party designated by the Company, including the migration of the data described in Section 5.05 to the Company or its third party designee. Upon termination or expiration of this Agreement or any Service, as the case may be, each party, at the request of the other, shall return or destroy, at the option of the party in possession of such Confidential Information (as defined herein), all Confidential Information in its possession or control which belongs to the other party or any other information that contains or comprises the other party’s information and to which the returning party does not retain rights hereunder (except one copy of which may be retained in such files for archival purposes).

ARTICLE V
CONFIDENTIALITY; OWNERSHIP OF DATA

Section 5.01 Definitions of Confidential Information, Disclosing Party and Recipient. “Confidential Information” shall mean any information of a party (the “Disclosing Party”) or its customers designated as confidential and received or obtained by the other party (the “Recipient”) as a result of the exercise of the Recipient’s rights or the performance of the Recipient’s obligations under this Agreement, and includes, without limitation, any business, marketing, technical and scientific information, trade secrets, processes, designs, data, formulae, plans, prototypes, software, source code, customer information and lists, research, business opportunities, agreements and other information related to or arising from the Services and which may be in any form or medium; provided, that any such information disclosed in non-written form shall be reduced to writing within thirty (30) days of its disclosure to the Recipient. In addition to the foregoing, Xxxxxx agrees that any information relating primarily to the operations or affairs of the MCD Business as such business is conducted by the Company following the Closing that is disclosed by the Company to Xxxxxx in the course of performing Services under this Agreement and that is or should be reasonably understood to be confidential or proprietary to the Company shall be “Confidential Information” of the Company under this Agreement, regardless of whether such information is designated as confidential or reduced to writing. Notwithstanding the foregoing, “Confidential Information” shall not include any information that (a) becomes generally available other than as a result of a breach of the provisions of this Article 5; (b) was received or becomes available on a nonconfidential basis to the Recipient from a source, other than the Disclosing Party or its customers, that to the Recipient’s knowledge is not or was not bound to hold such information confidential, (c) was acquired or developed independently by the Recipient without the use of the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information and without violating this Article 5 or any other confidentiality agreement with the Disclosing Party; or (d) is approved in writing for release or disclosure to the public by the Disclosing Party.

Section 5.02 Use and Disclosure Limitations. Except pursuant to Section 5.03, unless instructed otherwise by the Disclosing Party in writing, any Confidential Information received or obtained by the Recipient as a result of the exercise of its rights or the performance of its obligations under this Agreement shall be kept in confidence and not be used for any purpose other than to provide or receive, as the case may be, the Services under this Agreement or

-10-

otherwise as required for the Recipient to perform its obligations under this Agreement and shall only be disclosed to others if the Recipient reasonably believes such disclosure is necessary or appropriate in the course of providing or receiving, as the case may be, such Services and only under obligations of confidence. The Recipient shall treat the Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party in the same manner as the Recipient treats and holds its own confidential information of a similar nature (in the case of Xxxxxx, such manner shall be determined only with respect to the commercial segment(s) of Xxxxxx’ businesses), but in no case with less than a commercially reasonable standard of care.

Section 5.03 Disclosure Required by Law. In the event that disclosure of Confidential Information is compelled by judicial or administrative process or required by operation of Law, the Recipient will (a) if permitted by such process or Law, provide prompt written notice to the Disclosing Party and, at the Disclosing Party’s cost and expense, assist the Disclosing Party in seeking a protective order or other similar remedy; (b) furnish only that portion of the Confidential Information that is, on the advice of its legal counsel, required to be disclosed pursuant to such process or Law; and (c) exercise reasonable efforts in good faith to ensure that confidential treatment is accorded to such disclosed Confidential Information.

Section 5.04 Relief. The Recipient agrees that unauthorized disclosure or use of the Confidential Information may cause irreparable harm and result in significant commercial damage to the Disclosing Party. The parties agree that the Disclosing Party shall be entitled to seek equitable relief, including injunction and specific performance, in the event of any breach of the covenants regarding Confidential Information, in addition to all other remedies available at law and in equity.

Section 5.05 Other Related Matters. With respect to any Service, the Company agrees that (i) all software, hardware or data store, procedures and materials provided to the Company by or on behalf of Xxxxxx in connection with such Service are solely for the use of the Company solely for purposes of using such Services during the Term (provided that benefits received by third parties in the ordinary course of business conducted with the Company shall not be subject to this Section 5.05); (ii) title to any software, hardware or data store or any other intellectual property or proprietary right of any kind used in performing such Service shall, as between the Company and Xxxxxx, remain in Xxxxxx; (iii) the Company shall not copy, modify, reverse engineer, decompile, distribute or in any way alter or make derivative works of any software, hardware or data store used in performing such Service without Xxxxxx’ prior written consent; and (iv) the Company shall comply with any and all usage guidelines pertaining to any Service and provided by or on behalf of Xxxxxx, including without limitation, any and all usage guidelines pertaining to software, data, or other intellectual property or proprietary rights. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any assets acquired or purchased by the Company for its own account, shall not be subject to this Section 5.05. Except as expressly set forth in this Agreement, nothing in this Agreement or in the performance or use of the Services under this Agreement shall be deemed to transfer, assign or otherwise convey any rights, title or interests in or to any intellectual property or proprietary rights of one party to the other party. Nothing in this Article 5 shall be construed as obligating any party hereto to disclose its Confidential Information to any other party or person, or as granting to or conferring on any other party or person, expressly or by implication, any rights or license to the first party’s Confidential Information; provided that the parties acknowledge that, in order to perform the Services, Xxxxxx shall have custody of and usage of

-11-

certain of the Company’s Confidential Information and the Company hereby grants to Xxxxxx the right to do so in accordance with this Agreement.

WARRANT ASSUMPTION AGREEMENT

THIS WARRANT ASSUMPTION AGREEMENT (the “Assumption Agreement”) dated as of [Closing Date], by and between XXXXXX STRATEX NETWORKS, INC., a corporation incorporated in the State of Delaware (“Newco”), and STRATEX NETWORKS, INC., a corporation incorporated in the State of Delaware (“Stratex”), is made and delivered pursuant to Section 6 of those certain Warrants to Purchase Common Stock of Stratex (the “Warrants”) issued in connection with the Purchase Agreement dated as of September 21, 2004 by and between Stratex and certain Investors listed in Schedule I attached thereto. All capitalized terms used in this Assumption Agreement and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Warrants.

Pursuant to a Formation, Contribution and Merger Agreement, dated September 5, 2006 (the “Combination Agreement”), between Stratex and Xxxxxx Corporation, Stratex will merge into a wholly-owned subsidiary of Newco (the “Merger”). In the Merger, each outstanding share, par value $0.01 per share, of Stratex Common Stock (the “Stratex Common Stock”) will be converted into one-fourth of a share, par value $0.01 per share, of Class A Common Stock of Newco (the “Class A Common Stock”). Under the terms of the Combination Agreement, Newco has agreed to enter into this Assumption Agreement pursuant to which it will assume Stratex’s obligations under the Warrants.

Effective upon the effective time of the Merger,

(i) Stratex shall be released from its obligations under the Warrants.

(ii) Newco hereby assumes the obligations of Stratex under the Warrants and agrees that it shall be the “Company” for all purposes of the Warrants. Without limiting the foregoing, the undersigned hereby agrees to perform all of the obligations of the Company under, and to be bound in all respects by the terms of, the Warrants, to the same extent and with the same force and effect as if the undersigned were an original signatory thereto. At the effective time of the Merger, pursuant to the terms and subject to the conditions contained in the Warrants, each Warrant shall automatically become exercisable for that number of shares of Class A Common Stock equal to one-fourth of the number of shares of Stratex Common Stock issuable upon exercise of such Warrant immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger at an exercise price per share of Class A Common Stock equal to four (4) times the exercise price of such Warrant per share of Stratex Common Stock immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger, or $11.80 per share of Class A Common Stock.

Upon the execution and delivery of this Assumption Agreement by Stratex and Newco, the terms of the Warrants shall be supplemented in accordance herewith, and this Assumption Agreement shall form a part of the terms of the Warrants for all purposes, and every Registered Holder of a Warrant heretofore countersigned and delivered shall be bound hereby.

Except as expressly amended and supplemented hereby, the terms of the Warrants are in all respects ratified and confirmed and all terms, conditions and provisions of the Warrants shall remain in full force and effect.

This Assumption Agreement is an agreement supplemental to and in implementation of the terms of the Warrants, and the terms of the Warrants, and this Assumption Agreement shall be read and construed together.

Any notice or demand authorized or permitted by the terms of the Warrants to be given or made by the Registered Holder of any Warrants to or on Newco shall be sufficiently given or made when and if deposited in the mail, first class or registered, postage prepaid, addressed (until another address is provided to the Registered Holders in writing by Newco), as follows:

Xxxxxx Stratex Networks, Inc.
000 Xxxx Xxxxxxx Xxx
Xxx Xxxx, XX 00000
Attn: General Counsel
fax: (000) 000-0000

All covenants and agreements in this Assumption Agreement by Newco shall bind and incur to the benefit of its successors and assigns, whether so expressed or not.

This Assumption Agreement shall be deemed to be a contract made under the laws of the State of New York and for all purposes shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of said state. The parties hereto irrevocably consent to the jurisdiction of the courts of the state of New York and any federal court located in such state in connection with any action, suit or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Assumption Agreement.

Nothing in this Assumption Agreement shall be construed to give to any person other than Newco, Stratex and the Registered Holders of the Warrants any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under this Assumption Agreement; but this Assumption Agreement shall be for the sole and exclusive benefit of Newco, Stratex and the Registered Holders of the Warrants.

This Assumption Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and each of such counterparts shall for all purposes be deemed to be an original, and all such counterparts shall together constitute but one and the same instrument.

AFFILIATES LETTER

_____________ ___, 200__

Xxxxxx Stratex Networks, Inc.
[Address]

Ladies and Gentlemen:

I have been advised that, as of the date hereof, I may be deemed to be an “affiliate” of Stratex Networks, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), as such term is defined for purposes of paragraphs (c) and (d) of Rule 145 of the Rules and Regulations (the “Rules and Regulations”) of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”).

Pursuant to the terms of the Formation, Contribution and Merger Agreement, dated as of September ___, 2006, as amended as of _______________, 2006 (as it may be further amended, supplemented or modified from time to time, the “Formation Agreement”), among the Company, Xxxxxx Corporation, a Delaware corporation, Xxxxxx Stratex Networks, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Xxxxxx Stratex”), and Stratex Acquisition Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“Merger Sub”), the undersigned will receive shares of Class A common stock of Xxxxxx Stratex (“Class A Common Stock”) in exchange for the shares of common stock of the Company (“Company Common Stock”) owned by the undersigned at the effective date of the merger provided for in the Formation Agreement. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Formation Agreement.

I have been advised that the offering, sale and delivery of Xxxxxx Stratex Common Stock pursuant to the Formation Agreement will be registered under the Securities Act on a Registration Statement on Form S-4. I have also been advised that because I may be deemed to be an affiliate of the Company at the time the Formation Agreement is submitted to a vote of the stockholders of the Company, my ability to sell, assign or transfer any shares of Class A Common Stock that I receive in exchange for any shares of Company Common Stock pursuant to the Formation Agreement may be restricted unless such sale, assignment or transfer is registered under the Securities Act or an exemption from such registration is available. I understand that such exemptions are limited and I have obtained advice of counsel as to the nature and conditions of such exemptions, including information with respect to the applicability of Rules 144 and 145(d) promulgated under the Securities Act to the sale of such Securities.

I hereby represent and warrant to and covenant to Xxxxxx Stratex that:

A. I will not sell, assign or transfer any shares of Class A Common Stock except (i) pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act, (ii) by a sale made in conformity with the volume and other limitations of Rule 145 under the Securities Act (as such rule may be hereafter from time to time amended) (and otherwise in accordance with Rule 144 under the Securities Act, if I am an affiliate of Xxxxxx Stratex and if so required at the time) or (iii) in a transaction which, in the opinion

of independent counsel reasonably satisfactory to Xxxxxx Stratex or under a “no-action” obtained by me from the Staff of the Commission, is not required to be registered under the Securities Act.

B. I understand that neither Xxxxxx Stratex nor Merger Sub is under any obligation to register the sale, assignment, transfer or other disposition of the shares of Class A Common Stock by me or on my behalf under the Securities Act or to take any other action necessary in order to make compliance with an exemption from such registration available solely as a result of the Formation Agreement.

C. In the event of a sale of shares of Class A Common Stock pursuant to Rule 145 under the Securities Act, I will supply Xxxxxx Stratex with evidence of compliance with such Rule in the form of customary seller’s and broker’s Rule 145 representation letters or as Xxxxxx Stratex may otherwise reasonably request. In the event of a sale by me of shares of Class A Common Stock pursuant to an opinion of counsel or no-action letter referred to in paragraph A above, I will provide Xxxxxx Stratex with a copy of such opinion or no-action letter concurrently with such sale.

D. I acknowledge and agree that appropriate legends will be placed on certificates representing shares of Class A Common Stock delivered to me, which legends will be removed if (i) one year shall have elapsed from the date I acquired the Class A Common Stock received pursuant to the Formation Agreement and the provisions of Rule 145(d)(2) are then applicable to me, (ii) two years shall have elapsed from the date I acquired the Class A Common Stock received pursuant to the Formation Agreement and the provisions of Rule 145(d)(3) are then applicable to me, or (iii) Xxxxxx Stratex has received either an opinion of independent counsel, which opinion and counsel shall be reasonably satisfactory to Xxxxxx Stratex, or a “no action” letter obtained by me from the staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission, to the effect that the restrictions imposed by Rule 145 under the Securities Act no longer apply to me.

E. I further understand and agree that Xxxxxx Stratex may instruct the transfer agent for Class A Common Stock not to register the transfer of any shares of Class A Common Stock held by me unless any such transfer is made in accordance with this letter agreement and any instructions contained in the legend on the certificates representing such shares of Class A Common Stock.

F. I also understand that, unless any transfer by me of my shares of Class A Common Stock has been registered under the Securities Act or is made in conformity with the provisions of Rule 145 under the Securities Act, Xxxxxx Stratex reserves the right to place an appropriate legend on any certificates issued to my transferee.

G. I agree that I will, and will cause each of the other parties (who shall be identified to Xxxxxx Stratex by me prior to the Effective Time) whose shares are deemed to be beneficially owned by me to, have all shares of Class A Common Stock owned by me or such parties registered in your name or the name of such party, as the

-2-

case may be, prior to the Effective Time of the Merger and not in the name of any bank, broker-dealer, nominee or clearing house.

H. I understand and agree that the representations, warranties and covenants and agreements by me set forth herein are for the benefit of Xxxxxx Stratex, Harris, the Company and Merger Sub and will be relied upon by such entities and their respective counsel and accountants.

I. I understand and agree that this letter agreement applies to all shares of the capital stock of Xxxxxx Stratex and the Company that are deemed beneficially owned by me pursuant to applicable federal securities laws.

Execution of this letter should not be considered an admission on my part that I am an “affiliate” of the Company as described in the first paragraph of this letter, or as a waiver of any rights I may have to object to any claim that I am such an affiliate on or after the date of this letter.

This letter agreement constitutes the complete understanding between Xxxxxx Stratex and me concerning the subject matter hereof. This letter agreement shall be governed by and construed and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware applicable to contracts to be performed wholly in the State of Delaware.

If you are in agreement with the foregoing, please so indicate by signing below and returning a copy of this letter to the undersigned, at which time this letter shall become a binding agreement between us.

Section 2. Assignment. As of the Effective Time, pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Xxxxxx hereby sells, assigns, transfers, conveys and delivers to the Company all of Xxxxxx’ and any of its Subsidiaries’ right, title and interest in and to the arrangements identified on Schedule A to this Agreement (the “Assigned Contracts”) to the extent such rights, title and interests in and to such Assigned Contracts arise out of the provision of goods and services relating to any NetBoss^® integrated communications network management platform to any Affiliate of Xxxxxx or any of its Subsidiaries (the “Assignment”).

Section 3. Assumption. As of the Effective Time, pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Company hereby accepts the Assignment and assumes and agrees to pay, honor, perform and discharge when due all of the obligations that otherwise would be provided by Xxxxxx or one of its Subsidiaries under the Assigned Contracts (the “Assumed Liabilities”) arising out of or resulting from the provision of goods and services relating to any NetBoss^® integrated communications network management platform to any Affiliate of Xxxxxx or any of its Subsidiaries.

Section 4. Payment for Goods and Services.

Section 5. No Representations and Warranties. Neither Xxxxxx nor the Company make any representation or warranty, whether express or implied, in this Agreement with respect to the Assumed Contracts or the Assumed Liabilities. Nothing contained in this Section 5 shall limit any representation or warranty contained in the Formation Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement other than this Agreement.

Section 6. Further Actions. Xxxxxx and the Company shall execute or cause to be delivered to the other party such instruments and other documents, and shall take such other actions, as the other party may reasonably request after the date hereof, for the purpose of carrying out or evidencing the Assignment or the acceptance of the Assumed Liabilities pursuant to this Agreement.

Section 7. Governing Law and Venue; Waiver Of Jury Trial. (a) THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE DEEMED TO BE MADE IN AND IN ALL RESPECTS SHALL BE INTERPRETED, CONSTRUED AND GOVERNED BY AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAW OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE WITHOUT REGARD TO THE CONFLICT OF LAW PRINCIPLES THEREOF. The parties hereby irrevocably submit to the jurisdiction of the courts of the State of Delaware and the Federal courts of the United States of America located in the State of Delaware (collectively, the “Delaware Courts”) solely in respect of the interpretation and enforcement of the provisions of this Agreement and of the documents referred to in this Agreement, and in respect of the transactions contemplated hereby, and hereby waive, and agree not to assert, as a defense in any action, suit or proceeding for the interpretation or enforcement hereof or of any such document, that it is not subject thereto or that such action, suit or proceeding may not be brought or is not maintainable in any Delaware Court or that the venue thereof may not be appropriate or that this Agreement or any such document may not be enforced in or by such courts, and the parties hereto irrevocably agree that all claims with respect to such action or proceeding shall be heard and determined in any Delaware Court; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing each party agrees that any claim which primarily seeks injunctive relief and related monetary claims that cannot be brought in any Delaware Court for jurisdiction reasons may be commenced, heard and determined in any other court having proper jurisdiction over such claim.

Delaware Court jurisdiction over the person of such parties and, to the extent permitted by law, over the subject matter of such dispute and agree that mailing of process or other papers in connection with any such action or proceeding in the manner provided in Section 9 or in such other manner as may be permitted by law shall be valid and sufficient service thereof.

If necessary to effect the intent of the parties, the parties will negotiate in good faith to amend this Agreement to replace the unenforceable language with enforceable language which as closely as possible reflects such intent.

No failure or delay by any party to take any action with respect to a breach by another party of this Agreement or a default by another party hereunder shall constitute a waiver of the former party’s right to enforce any provision of this Agreement or to take action with respect to such breach or default or any subsequent breach or default. Waiver by any party of any breach or failure to comply with any provision of this Agreement by another party shall not be construed as, or constitute, a continuing wavier of such provisions, or a waiver of any other breach of or failure to comply with any other provisions of this Agreement.

Section 10. Binding Effect; Assignment. This Agreement shall be binding upon, and inure to the benefit of, the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns, but may not be assigned by one party without the prior written consent of the other parties.
