Nothing in this Section 3.01(b) shall be construed to permit any Party to take any action that is otherwise prohibited or restricted by any other provision of this Agreement.

3.02 Exchange of Certificates

Prior to the Closing, Parent shall enter into a customary paying agent agreement with a nationally recognized financial institution reasonably acceptable to the Company and Parent (the Paying Agent) for the payment of the Merger Consideration as provided in Section 3.01(a)(ii). At or prior to the Effective Time, Parent shall deposit or cause to be deposited with the Paying Agent, for payment in accordance with this Article III through the Paying Agent, cash in an aggregate amount necessary to pay the Merger Consideration (it being understood, for the avoidance of doubt, that such aggregate amount shall not include any amounts payable in respect of Company Restricted Stock Awards, Company RSU Awards or Company PSU Awards or any shares of Company Common Stock issuable pursuant thereto, which amounts Parent shall cause to be paid pursuant to Sections 3.03(a) and 3.03(b), as applicable) (the Payment Fund).

The Surviving Corporation shall pay all charges and expenses, including those of the Paying Agent, in connection with the payment of the Merger Consideration for shares of the Company Common Stock.

(b) Promptly following the Effective Time (and in any event, not later than the third (3^rd) Business Day thereafter), Parent shall cause the Paying Agent to mail to each holder of record of a Certificate or Book-Entry Share that immediately prior to the Effective Time represented outstanding shares of Company Common Stock (i) a letter of transmittal (in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Parent) which shall specify that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to the Certificates or Book-Entry Shares, as applicable, shall pass only upon proper delivery of the Certificates (or affidavits of loss in lieu thereof) or Book-Entry Shares pursuant to this Section 3.02 to the Paying Agent, and which shall be in the form and have such other provisions as Parent may reasonably specify) and (ii) instructions (which instructions shall be in the form and have such other provisions as Parent may reasonably specify) for use in effecting the surrender of the Certificates or Book-Entry Shares in exchange for cash in an amount equal to the Merger Consideration multiplied by the number of shares of Company Common Stock previously represented by such Certificates or Book-Entry Shares.

(c) Upon surrender of a Certificate (or affidavit of loss in lieu thereof) or Book-Entry Share for cancellation to the Paying Agent, together with a letter of transmittal duly completed and validly executed in accordance with the instructions thereto, and such other

Page 17

documents as may be reasonably required or requested pursuant to such instructions (including receipt of an “agent’s message” by the Paying Agent (or such other evidence as the Paying Agent may reasonably request) in respect of any Book-Entry Share), the holder of such Certificate or Book-Entry Share shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor, and Parent shall direct the Paying Agent to pay and deliver in exchange therefor as promptly as reasonably practicable, cash in an amount equal to the Merger Consideration multiplied by the number of shares of Company Common Stock previously represented by such Certificate or Book-Entry Shares.

Subject to Section 3.02(f) and Section 3.05, without prejudice to any rights in respect of the Distribution, after the Effective Time and until so surrendered, each Certificate and Book-Entry Share shall represent only the right to receive the Merger Consideration payable in respect of the Company Common Stock represented thereby.

In the event of a transfer of ownership of Company Common Stock that is not registered in the transfer records of the Company, payment of the appropriate amount of Merger Consideration may be made to a Person other than the Person in whose name the Certificate or Book-Entry Share so surrendered is registered, if such Certificate shall be properly endorsed or otherwise be in proper form for transfer (and accompanied by all documents reasonably required by the Paying Agent) or such Book-Entry Share shall be properly transferred and the Person requesting such payment shall pay any transfer or other Taxes required by reason of the payment to a Person other than the registered holder of such Certificate or Book-Entry Share or establish to the satisfaction of Parent that such Tax has been paid or is not applicable.

(e) Termination of Payment Fund

Any portion of the Payment Fund which remains undistributed to the holders of the Certificates or Book-Entry Shares for six (6) months after the Effective Time shall be delivered to Parent or its designee upon demand, and any such holders who have not theretofore complied with this Article III shall thereafter look only to Parent or the Surviving Corporation (subject to abandoned property, escheat or similar Applicable Law) as general creditor thereof for payment of their claims for Merger Consideration.

(f) No Liability

None of Parent, Merger Sub, the Company or the Paying Agent shall be liable to any Person in respect of any cash held in the Payment Fund delivered to a Governmental Authority pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Applicable Law. If any Certificate or Book-Entry Share shall not have been surrendered immediately prior to the date on which any Merger Consideration in respect of such Certificate or Book-Entry Share would otherwise escheat to or become the property of any Governmental Authority, any such Merger Consideration in respect of such Certificate or Book-Entry Share shall, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, become the property of Parent free and clear of all claims or interest of any Person previously entitled thereto.

Page 18

(g) Investment of Payment Fund

The Paying Agent shall invest any cash included in the Payment Fund as directed by Parent; provided that no such investment shall relieve Parent or the Paying Agent from making the payments required by this Article III, and following any losses resulting from such investment Parent shall promptly provide additional funds to the Paying Agent for the benefit of the holders of Company Common Stock in the amount of such losses.

regulations promulgated thereunder and the rules of the SEC and NASDAQ and, on each such applicable date, neither the Company Proxy Statement nor any Other Required Company Filing will contain any untrue statement of a material fact, or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, provided that no covenant or representation is made with respect to any information provided by Parent, Merger Sub, or any of their affiliates for inclusion or incorporation by reference in the Proxy Statement or any Other Required Company Filings. The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to resolve, and each Party agrees to consult and cooperate with the other Party in resolving, all SEC comments with respect to the Company Proxy Statement and any Other Required Company Filing as promptly as reasonably practicable after receipt thereof and to cause the Company Proxy Statement and any Other Required Company Filing in definitive form to be cleared by the SEC and mailed to the Company’s stockholders as promptly as reasonably practicable following filing with the SEC. Each of Parent, Merger Sub, and the Company agrees to correct any information (and to notify the other Parties of any fact, change, or event underlying such correction) provided by it for use in the Company Proxy Statement and any Other Required Company Filing so that the Company Proxy Statement and any Other Required Company Filing would not include a misstatement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, and the Company shall promptly prepare and mail to its stockholders, with Parent’s written approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, an amendment or supplement setting forth such correction and promptly file any required amendment of, or supplement to, such correction with the SEC and, as required by Applicable Law, disseminate the information contained in such amendment or supplement to the Company’s stockholders.

(b) As soon as reasonably practicable following the date of this Agreement, the Company shall prepare and file the ESG Registration Statement with the SEC. If the Company determines that it is required, pursuant to Applicable Law, to file any document other than (or in addition to) the ESG Registration Statement with the SEC in connection with the Spin-Off (such document, as amended or supplemented, an Other ESG Required Company Filing), then the Company shall promptly prepare and file such Other ESG Required Company Filing with the SEC. The Company shall cause the ESG Registration Statement and any Other ESG Required Company Filing at the date that it (and any amendment or supplement thereto) is first declared effective by the SEC, (i) to comply as to form and substance in all material respects with the requirements of the Exchange Act and, the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder and the rules of the SEC and NASDAQ and (ii) not to contain any untrue statement of a material fact, or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to resolve all SEC comments with respect to the ESG Registration Statement and any Other ESG Required Company Filing and to cause the ESG Registration Statement and any Other ESG Required Company Filing in definitive form to be cleared by the SEC, in each case as promptly as reasonably practicable. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Company has the sole right to control and direct all

Page 56

filings with the SEC relating to the Spin-Off (including the ESG Registration Statement) and all strategy, communications and correspondence in connection with the review by the SEC of the ESG Registration Statement and the Other ESG Required Company Filings.

(c) The Company shall as soon as reasonably practicable: (i) notify Parent of the receipt of any comments from the SEC for any amendment to the Company Proxy Statement, any Other Required Company Filing, the ESG Registration Statement or any Other ESG Required Company Filing, or for additional information; and (ii) provide Parent with copies of all written correspondence between the Company and its Subsidiaries and its and their Representatives, on the one hand, and the SEC, on the other hand, with respect to the Company Proxy Statement or any Other ESG Required Company Filing. Notwithstanding the foregoing, prior to filing or mailing the Company Proxy Statement, any Other Required Company Filing, the ESG Registration Statement or any Other ESG Required Company Filing (or any amendments thereto) or responding to any comments of the SEC with respect thereto, the Company shall, to the extent reasonably practicable, (x) provide Parent a reasonable opportunity to review the Company Proxy Statement, Other Required Company Filing, the ESG Registration Statement or any Other ESG Required Company Filing or any response thereto (including the proposed final version of the Company Proxy Statement, Other Required Company Filing, the ESG Registration Statement or any Other ESG Required Company Filing) and (y) shall consider in good faith all comments thereto reasonably proposed by Parent.

(d) The Company shall, as soon as reasonably practicable after the date on which the SEC confirms that it has no further comments on the Company Proxy Statement (the SEC Clearance Date), in accordance with Applicable Law and the Bylaws, establish a record date for, duly call, give notice of, convene and hold a special meeting of the Company’s stockholders (including any adjournment or postponement thereof, the Company Stockholder Meeting) for the purpose of obtaining the Company Stockholder Approval. The Company Stockholder Approval shall, without the prior written consent of Parent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), be the only non-procedural matter proposed to be acted on by the Company’s stockholders at the Company Stockholder Meeting. The Company shall file the definitive Company Proxy Statement with the SEC and cause the definitive Company Proxy Statement to be mailed to the holders of the Company stock as of the record date established for the Company Stockholder Meeting as promptly as practicable (and in any event within ten (10) Business Days) after the SEC Clearance Date and in advance of such meeting; provided that if the SEC has failed to affirmatively notify the Company by the date that is ten (10) calendar days after the initial filing of the Company Proxy Statement with the SEC that it will or will not be reviewing the Company Proxy Statement, then such date shall be the SEC Clearance Date. Except to the extent that the Company Board shall have effected a Company Adverse Recommendation Change as expressly permitted by Section 6.05, the Company Proxy Statement shall include the Company Recommendation. Subject to Section 6.05, the Company shall use reasonable best efforts to solicit the Company’s stockholders’ proxies in favor of the adoption of this Agreement and approval of the Merger and the other Transactions. The Company shall keep Parent and Merger Sub updated with respect to proxy solicitation results as and when requested by Parent or

Page 57

Merger Sub. Once the Company Stockholder Meeting has been called and noticed, the Company shall not postpone or adjourn the Company Stockholder Meeting without the written consent of Parent (other than: (A) in order to obtain a quorum of its stockholders, (B) to allow reasonable additional time after the filing and mailing of any supplemental or amended disclosures to the Company Proxy Statement, or (C) for compliance with Applicable Law or an Order from the SEC), and in no event more than twice (without the written consent of Parent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned). In the event that the Company Stockholder Meeting as originally called is for any reason adjourned or postponed or otherwise delayed, the Company agrees that unless Parent shall have otherwise approved in writing, it shall implement such postponement or adjournment or other delay in such a way that the Company does not establish a new record date for the Company Stockholder Meeting, as so adjourned, postponed or delayed, except as required by Applicable Law. If the Company Board makes a Company Adverse Recommendation Change as expressly permitted pursuant to Section 6.05, it will not alter the obligation of the Company to submit the Company Stockholder Approval to Company’s stockholders at the Company Stockholder Meeting to consider and vote upon, unless this Agreement shall have been terminated in accordance with its terms prior to the Company Stockholder Meeting.

6.03 Regulatory Authorizations and Consents; Efforts

(a) The Company and Parent agree that, as of the date hereof, the only notifications and approvals required to be filed and obtained under Antitrust Laws in connection with the Merger and the other transactions contemplated hereby are the filings and corresponding approvals in the jurisdictions set out in Annex 6.03(a) (such notifications and approvals, together with any such notifications and approvals arising after the date hereof (it being understood that such notifications and approvals arising after the date hereof shall not be deemed to be a condition to any Party’s obligations to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby), the Required Notifications).

(b) Subject to clause (d) below, each of the Parties will use its reasonable best efforts to cooperate with each other and to take, or cause to be taken, or do, or cause to be done, all things necessary, proper or advisable to satisfy, or cause to be satisfied, all conditions to the obligations of the Parties under this Agreement over which it has control or influence, to obtain all other necessary actions, waivers, consents, licenses, permits and registrations (or transfers of the foregoing) and approvals from Governmental Authorities or any other Person (it being understood that such actions, waivers, consents, licenses, permits and registrations shall not be deemed to be a condition to any Party’s obligations to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby unless otherwise set forth in Article VII), and to cause the Merger to be consummated as promptly as practicable in accordance with the terms hereof. In addition, each of the Parties shall use its reasonable best efforts to defend through litigation on the merits any claim asserted in court by any Party in order to avoid entry of, or to have vacated or terminated, any Order of any Governmental Authority (whether temporary, preliminary or permanent) that would prevent or materially delay the consummation of the Closing.

Page 58

(c) The Company and Parent shall prepare and file any filing required under the HSR Act as promptly as practicable, but in any event no later than ten (10) Business Days after the date of this Agreement, and Parent shall prepare and file all other Required Notifications as soon as reasonably practicable after the date of this Agreement. In no event will any Party request or otherwise seek early termination of any applicable waiting periods under applicable Antitrust Law without the other Party’s prior written consent.

(d) Notwithstanding Parent’s covenants otherwise set out in this Section 6.03, Parent will not be required to propose, negotiate, commit to or effect, by consent decree, hold separate orders, or otherwise regarding, (i) the sale, divestiture, license or disposition, in whole or in part of, or suffer any restriction on the operation of, Parent’s or its Subsidiaries’ assets, properties or businesses; or (ii) the sale, divestiture, license, or disposition, in whole or part of the assets, properties or businesses to be acquired by Parent pursuant hereto.

(e) To the extent permitted by Applicable Law, each Party shall promptly notify the other of any material communication (including oral communications) it or any of its Affiliates receives from any Governmental Authority to the extent relating to this Agreement and the Transactions and permit the other to review in advance any proposed material communication by such Party to any Governmental Authority. Neither of the Parties shall participate in or agree to participate in any material meeting with any Governmental Authority in respect of any filings, investigation (including any settlement of any such investigation), litigation or other inquiry related to the Required Notifications unless it consults with the other in advance and, to the extent permitted by such Governmental Authority, gives the other the opportunity to attend and participate at such meeting. To the extent permitted by Applicable Law, each Party will coordinate and cooperate fully with each other in exchanging such information and providing such assistance as the other may reasonably request in connection with the Required Notifications; provided that the disclosing Party may, where appropriate, limit disclosure of any information to those individuals acting as outside counsel for the other Parties, and such counsel will not disclose such information to such other Parties without the knowledge and consent of Parent or the Company, as applicable). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Parent has the sole right to control and direct all antitrust filings and antitrust strategy in connection with review of the Merger and other transactions contemplated hereby by any Governmental Authority, or any litigation by, or negotiations with, any antitrust authority or other Person relating to the transaction under the HSR Act or any other Antitrust Law and will take the lead in all meetings, discussions, and communications with any Governmental Authority relating to obtaining antitrust approval for the Transaction, provided that Parent will consult with and consider in good faith the comments of the Company in connection with any filing, communication, defense, litigation, negotiation, or strategy. Subject to this Section 6.03(e) and the confidentiality provisions of the Confidentiality Agreement, the Parties will provide each other with copies of all material correspondence, filings or communications between them or any of their Representatives, on the one hand, and any Governmental Authority or members of its staff, on the other hand, with respect to this Agreement and the Transactions; provided that materials may be redacted by any Party: (i) as necessary to comply with Applicable Law, or (ii) as necessary to address reasonable attorney-client or other privilege or confidentiality concerns.

Page 59

6.04 Access to Information; Confidentiality

Until the Closing and upon reasonable advance written notice from Parent, the Company will allow Parent and its Representatives reasonable access, at Parent’s expense, during normal business hours, under the supervision of personnel of the Company, its Affiliates or their respective Representatives and in such a manner as not to unreasonably interfere with the normal operations of the business of the Company to (a) such materials and information (including Contracts, properties, books, Tax Returns, work papers and records) about the Ex-ESG Company as Parent may reasonably request and (b) specified members of management of the business of the Ex-ESG Company as the Parties may reasonably agree, and which shall in any event include the individuals set forth on Schedule 6.04; provided, however, that except as required by Applicable Law, Parent shall not initiate any one-on-one discussion with any employee of the Company or its Subsidiaries regarding such employee’s potential compensation following the Closing without the prior written consent of the Company (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company will not be required to disclose any information to Parent or its Representatives if such disclosure would be reasonably likely, after consultation with counsel, to: (i) result in the loss of any attorney-client or other legal privilege (it being agreed that the Company will notify Parent of the fact that it is withholding such information on such basis and will provide a description of such information, and shall use reasonable best efforts to allow disclosure of such information in a manner that does not result in the loss of any such privilege, including entering into a joint defense agreement or other agreements or arrangements) or (ii) contravene any Applicable Law (including Antitrust Laws). In no event shall Parent be permitted to conduct any invasive testing of the Company Owned Real Property or the Company Leased Real Property or the building, or improvements thereon, including sampling of soil, sediment, groundwater, surface water or building material. Parent will, and will cause its Representatives to, hold all information so obtained in accordance with the terms of the Confidentiality Agreement. No investigation or access permitted pursuant to this Section 6.04 shall affect or be deemed to modify or cure any breach of, or inaccuracy in, any representation or warranty made by the Company hereunder.

6.05 No Solicitation by the Company

(a) From the date of this Agreement until the earlier of the Effective Time and the termination of this Agreement in accordance with Section 8.01, except as expressly permitted by Section 6.05(b) or Section 6.05(d) and except as related solely to the Spin-Off, the transactions contemplated by the ESG Purchase Agreement or the ESG Business or any of the assets or operations thereof, (i) the Company shall cease, shall cause its Subsidiaries to cease and shall instruct and cause its officers, directors and other Representatives to cease, and cause to be terminated all existing discussions, negotiations, solicitations, encouragement and communications with any Persons with respect to any Company Acquisition Proposal (other than the transactions contemplated by this Agreement with Parent and Merger Sub); (ii) the Company shall not, and shall not authorize or permit any of its Representatives to, directly or indirectly through another Person, (A) engage in any communication or initiate, solicit, facilitate or encourage any action that would constitute or would reasonably be expected to lead to a Company Acquisition Proposal, (B) engage in or continue negotiations or discussions with, or provide any information or data to, any Person (other than Parent or any of its Affiliates

Page 60

or Representatives) relating to or that would reasonably be expected to lead to any Company Acquisition Proposal, (C) approve, endorse, recommend, execute or enter into any Alternative Acquisition Agreement or (D) resolve or agree to do any of the foregoing and (iii) the Company shall, within one (1) Business Day of the date of this Agreement and thereafter, terminate all access by third parties to any data room (virtual or actual) containing any of the Company’s information relating to the Ex-ESG Company and request the destruction or return of all non-public information previously provided by or on behalf of the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or their Representatives to any and all such third parties.

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, at any time prior to receiving the Company Stockholder Approval, if the Company receives a bona fide written Company Acquisition Proposal that did not result directly or indirectly from a breach of Section 6.05(a) (other than breaches thereof that are inadvertent, de minimis and not intended to result in a Company Acquisition Proposal), then the Company may: (i) contact the Person who has made such Company Acquisition Proposal in order to clarify the terms of such Company Acquisition Proposal so that the Company Board (or any committee thereof) may inform itself about such Company Acquisition Proposal, (ii) furnish information concerning its business, properties or assets to such Person, but only pursuant to a confidentiality agreement with confidentiality terms that are not less favorable to the Company than those contained in the Confidentiality Agreement and (iii) negotiate and participate in discussions and negotiations with such Person concerning such Company Acquisition Proposal, in the case of clauses (i), (ii) and (iii), if (x) the Company Board determines in good faith (after consultation with outside financial advisors and legal counsel) that such Company Acquisition Proposal constitutes, or could reasonably be expected to lead to or result in, a Superior Proposal and (y) the Company Board determines in good faith (after consultation with outside financial advisors and legal counsel) that the failure to take such action would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under Applicable Law. The Company (A) shall promptly (and in any case within twenty-four (24) hours) provide Parent notice of the receipt of any Company Acquisition Proposal and any confidentiality agreement entered into with any third party, and shall disclose the identity of the third party (or parties) and the terms of such Company Acquisition Proposal (including, in the case of written terms, copies of any Alternative Acquisition Agreement and materials containing the material terms of such Alternative Acquisition Agreement and, in the case of oral terms, a reasonable description of the material terms thereof), (B) shall promptly (and in any case within twenty-four (24) hours) make available to Parent copies of all information of the Company and the same access provided by the Company to such third party but not previously made available to Parent, and (C) shall keep Parent informed on a reasonably prompt (and at Parent’s request, which shall not be more frequently than daily) basis of the status and material details of (including amendments and proposed amendments to and the negotiations or discussion of) any such Company Acquisition Proposal, or such other inquiry, offer or proposal. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not, shall cause its Subsidiaries not to and shall instruct and cause its officers, directors and other Representatives not to, provide any commercially sensitive non-public information to any competitor of the Company in connection with the actions permitted by this Section 6.05, except in a manner consistent with the Company’s past practices in dealing with the disclosure of such information in the context of considering Company Acquisition Proposals prior to the date of this Agreement.

Page 61

(c) Except as expressly permitted by Section 6.05(d) or Section 6.05(e), neither the Company Board nor any committee thereof shall (i) withdraw, qualify, withhold or modify, fail to make, or publicly propose to withdraw, qualify, withhold or modify, the Company Recommendation, (ii) adopt, approve or recommend or publicly propose to adopt, approve or recommend any Company Acquisition Proposal, Alternative Acquisition Agreement or Superior Proposal, (iii) fail to recommend against any tender offer or exchange offer for shares of Company Common Stock within ten (10) Business Days after commencement of such offer, (iv) approve or recommend or publicly propose to adopt or recommend any Company Acquisition Proposal or Superior Proposal or fail to include the Company Recommendation in the Company Proxy Statement, (v) fail to publicly reaffirm the Company Recommendation within three (3) Business Days after receipt of a written request by Parent to provide such affirmation, or (vi) adopt or approve, or publicly propose to adopt or approve, or allow the Company to execute or enter into, any Contract, arrangement or understanding that reflects, or would reasonably be expected to lead to, a Company Acquisition Proposal or would require the Company to abandon or terminate the Merger or the other transactions contemplated hereby (an Alternative Acquisition Agreement) (any action described in clauses (i) through (vi) of this sentence being referred to as a Company Adverse Recommendation Change).

(d) If, at any time after the date of this Agreement and prior to the receipt of the Company Stockholder Approval, the Company Board first receives a Company Acquisition Proposal that did not result directly or indirectly from a breach of Section 6.05(a) (other than breaches thereof that are inadvertent, de minimis and not intended to result in a Company Acquisition Proposal), that is not withdrawn, and that the Company Board determines in good faith (after consultation with outside financial advisors and legal counsel) constitutes a Superior Proposal, the Company Board may cause the Company to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.01(c)(ii) and simultaneously enter into a definitive Alternative Acquisition Agreement in respect of such Superior Proposal if: (A) the Company Board has determined in good faith (after consultation with outside financial advisors and legal counsel) that the failure to take such action would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under Applicable Law; (B) the Company has previously notified Parent in writing that it intends to terminate this Agreement and provided Parent an unredacted copy of the proposed definitive Alternative Acquisition Agreement between the Company and the Person making such Superior Proposal; (C) for a period of four (4) Business Days following its compliance with clause (B) of this Section 6.05(d), the Company shall have discussed and negotiated in good faith and made the Company’s Representatives available to discuss and negotiate in good faith (in each case to the extent Parent desires to negotiate) with Parent’s Representatives any proposed modifications to the terms and conditions of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement so that the failure to take such action would no longer be inconsistent with the Company Board’s fiduciary duties under Applicable Law (it being understood and agreed that any amendment to any material term or condition of any Superior Proposal shall require a new notice and a new negotiation period that shall expire on the later to occur of (1) three (3) Business Days following delivery of such new

Page 62

notice from the Company to Parent and (2) the expiration of the original four (4) Business Day period described in this clause (C); and (D) no earlier than the end of such negotiation period, the Company Board shall have determined in good faith, after considering the terms of any proposed amendment or modification to this Agreement, that the Company Acquisition Proposal that is the subject of the notice described in clause (B) above still constitutes a Superior Proposal.

(e) Other than in connection with a Superior Proposal (which shall be subject to Section 6.05(d) and shall not be subject to this Section 6.05(e)), prior to obtaining the Company Stockholder Approval, the Company Board may take any action in response to an Intervening Event prohibited by clause (i) of Section 6.05(c), only if (i) the Company Board determines in good faith (after consultation with outside financial advisors and legal counsel) that the failure to take such action would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under Applicable Law, (ii) the Company has notified Parent in writing that it intends to effect such a Company Adverse Recommendation Change pursuant to this Section 6.05(e) and the facts underlying the Company Board’s determination that an Intervening Event has occurred and the facts underlying the reason for the Company Adverse Recommendation Change, (iii) for a period of four (4) Business Days following the notice delivered pursuant to clause (ii) of Section 6.05(e), the Company shall have discussed and negotiated in good faith and made the Company’s Representatives available to discuss and negotiate in good faith (in each case to the extent Parent desires to negotiate), with Parent’s Representatives any proposed modifications to the terms and conditions of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement so that the failure to take such action would no longer be inconsistent with the Company Board’s fiduciary duties under Applicable Law (it being understood and agreed that any material change to the facts and circumstances relating to an Intervening Event shall require a new notice and a new negotiation period that shall expire on the later to occur of (1) three (3) Business Days following delivery of such new notice from the Company to Parent and (2) the expiration of the original four (4) Business Days period described in this clause (iii) above) and (iv) no earlier than the end of such negotiation period, the Company Board shall have determined in good faith (after consultation with outside financial advisors and legal counsel), after considering the terms of any proposed amendment or modification to this Agreement, that the failure to take such action would still be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under Applicable Law.

(f) Nothing contained in this Agreement shall prohibit the Company or the Company Board from (i) disclosing to its stockholders a position contemplated by Rules 14d-9 and 14e-2(a) promulgated under the Exchange Act, or from issuing a “stop, look and listen” statement pursuant to Rule 14d-9(f) of the Exchange Act pending disclosure of its position thereunder or (ii) making any disclosure to its stockholders if the Company Board determines in good faith (after consultation with outside legal counsel) that the failure of the Company Board to make such disclosure would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under Applicable Law; provided, however, that (A) in no event shall this Section 6.05(f) affect the obligations specified in Section 6.05(d) or Section 6.05(e) and (B) any such disclosure (other than issuance by the Company of a “stop, look and listen” pursuant to Rule 14d-9(f) of the Exchange Act or similar communication to the stockholders of the Company or a factually accurate public statement by the Company

Page 63

that only describes the Company’s receipt of a Company Acquisition Proposal and the operation of this Agreement with respect thereto) that addresses or relates to the approval, recommendation or declaration of advisability by the Company Board with respect to this Agreement or a Company Acquisition Proposal shall be deemed to be a Company Adverse Recommendation Change.

(g) Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 6.05 shall in any way limit or prohibit any action taken by the Company in furtherance of its efforts to consummate the Distribution, including holding discussions, negotiations and communications with, or providing non-public information unrelated to the Ex-ESG Company to, any Persons in connection with the Distribution (including to potential financing sources) and in connection with the solicitation of offers for an ESG Sale prior to the ESG Election Date.

(h) The Company agrees (i) not to release or permit the release of any Person from, or to waive or permit the waiver or termination of any provision of, any confidentiality, standstill or similar agreement (or any standstill or confidentiality provision of any other contract or agreement) to which any of the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company is a party or any “moratorium,” “control share acquisition,” “fair price,” “interested stockholder,” “affiliate transaction,” “business combination,” or other antitakeover Contract or Applicable Law, and the Company will use its reasonable best efforts to enforce or cause to be enforced to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law each such agreement or Applicable Law and (ii) any breach of the provisions of this Section 6.05 by any Subsidiary or Representative of the Company will be deemed to be a breach of such provisions by the Company; provided, however, that nothing in this Section 6.05(h) shall apply to standstill or similar provisions contained in any agreements that are terminated, released or waived in accordance with their terms without any action by the Company.

6.06 Directors’ and Officers’ Indemnification and Insurance

(a) Parent and Merger Sub agree that all rights to indemnification and exculpation from liabilities, including advancement of expenses, for acts or omissions occurring at or prior to the Effective Time now existing in favor of the current or former directors or officers of the Company (the D&O Indemnified Parties) as provided in the Certificate of Incorporation and the Bylaws (in each case, as in effect on the date of this Agreement) shall survive the Merger and shall continue in full force and effect. For a period of six (6) years from the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation shall, and Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, maintain in effect the exculpation, indemnification and advancement of expenses equivalent to the provisions of the Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time with respect to acts or omissions occurring prior to the Effective Time and shall not amend, repeal or otherwise modify any such provisions in any manner that would adversely affect the rights thereunder of any D&O Indemnified Parties; provided, however, that all rights to indemnification in respect of any action pending or asserted or any claim made within such period shall continue until the disposition of such action or resolution of such claim.

Page 64

(b) Prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall (or, if the Company is unable to, after the Effective Time, Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to) purchase a six (6)-year prepaid “tail” policy, with terms, conditions, retentions and limits of liability that are no less favorable than the coverage provided under the Company’s existing policies of directors’ and officers’ liability insurance and fiduciary liability insurance, with respect to matters arising on or before the Effective Time (including in connection with this Agreement and the transactions or actions contemplated by this Agreement), and Parent shall cause such policy to be maintained in full force and effect, for its full term, and cause all obligations thereunder to be honored by the Surviving Corporation, and no other party shall have any further obligation to purchase or pay for insurance hereunder; provided, however, (i) that the Company shall not pay, and the Surviving Corporation shall not be required to pay, in excess of 300% of the last annual premium paid by the Company prior to the date of this Agreement in respect of such “tail” policy and (ii) the material terms of such prepaid policies (including coverage and amount) are no more favorable in the aggregate to such D&O Indemnified Parties than the insurance coverage otherwise required under Section 6.06(a). If the Company or the Surviving Corporation for any reason fails to obtain such “tail” insurance policies prior to, as of or after the Effective Time, Parent shall, for a period of six (6) years from the Effective Time, cause the Surviving Corporation to maintain in effect the current policies of directors’ and officers’ liability insurance and fiduciary liability insurance maintained by the Company with respect to matters arising on or before the Effective Time; provided further, however, that after the Effective Time, neither the Surviving Corporation nor Parent shall be required to pay annual premiums in excess of 300% of the last annual premium paid by the Company prior to the date of this Agreement in respect of the coverage required to be obtained pursuant hereto, but in such case shall purchase as much coverage as reasonably practicable for such amount.

(c) The covenants contained in this Section 6.06 are intended to be for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable by, each of the D&O Indemnified Parties and their respective heirs only if the Merger is consummated and shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which any such Person is entitled, whether pursuant to Applicable Law, contract or otherwise.

(d) In the event that Parent or the Surviving Corporation or any of their respective successors or assigns (i) consolidates with or merges into any other Person and shall not be the continuing or surviving corporation or entity of such consolidation or merger or (ii) transfers or conveys all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any Person, then, and in each such case, reasonable provision shall be made so that the successors or assigns of Parent or the Surviving Corporation, as the case may be, shall assume the obligations set forth in this Section 6.06.

6.07 Notification of Certain Matters

Subject to Applicable Law, from and after the date hereof until the earlier to occur of the Effective Time and the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.01, the Company shall give prompt notice to Parent, and Parent shall give prompt notice to the Company (and each will subsequently keep the other informed, on a reasonably current basis, of any material developments related to such notice), of (i) any notice or other communication received by such Party or its Subsidiaries from any Governmental Authority in connection with this Agreement,

Page 65

the Merger or the other Transactions, or from any Person alleging that the consent of such Person is or may be required in connection with the Merger or the other Transactions (ii) any claims, investigations or Proceedings commenced, threatened in writing or, to such Party’s Knowledge, threatened orally against, relating to or involving or otherwise affecting such Party or any of its Subsidiaries that relate to this Agreement, the Merger or the other Transactions, (iii) any inaccuracy in or breach of any representation or warranty or breach of covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement that would reasonably be expected to cause, in the case of the Company, any of the conditions set forth in Sections 7.01 or 7.02 not to be satisfied or any conditions of the Company, its Subsidiaries, or, in the case of Parent or Merger Sub, any of the conditions set forth in Sections 7.01 or 7.03 not to be satisfied. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, no such notification shall cure any breach of, or inaccuracy in the representations, warranties, covenants or agreements of the Parties or cure any failure of the conditions to the obligations of the Parties or otherwise limit or affect the remedies available hereunder to the Party receiving such notice.

6.08 Public Disclosure

So long as this Agreement is in effect, Parent and Merger Sub and their respective Affiliates, on the one hand, and the Company and its Affiliates, on the other hand, shall consult with each other before making, and give each other a reasonable opportunity to review and comment upon, any press release or other public statements with respect to this Agreement, the Merger and the other Transactions, and shall not issue any such press release or make any such public statement prior to obtaining the other Party’s prior consent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) except (a) as may be required by Applicable Law or the rules of a national securities exchange or (b) that Parent may, without such consultation, make such statements as are not inconsistent with the disclosure in the joint press release announcing the execution of this Agreement and the ESG Purchase Agreement or as may be required by Applicable Law, court process or by obligations pursuant to any listing agreement with any national securities exchange. The text of the joint press release announcing the execution of this Agreement and the Spin-Off will be as previously agreed to by the Parties.

At any time prior to the Effective Time, subject to Applicable Law, any Party may (a) extend the time for the performance of any obligation or other act of any other Party, (b) waive any inaccuracy in the representations and warranties of the other Party contained herein or in any document delivered pursuant hereto and (c) waive compliance with any agreement or condition contained herein. Any such extension or waiver shall only be valid if set forth in an instrument in writing signed by the Party or Parties to be bound thereby. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no failure or delay by the Company, Parent or Merger Sub in exercising any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise of any other right hereunder. Any agreement on the part of a Party to any such extension or waiver shall be valid only if set forth in an instrument in writing signed on behalf of such Party.

9.04 Interpretation; Certain Definitions

(a) The Parties have participated collectively in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement. In the event an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement shall be construed as if drafted collectively by the Parties, and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any Party by virtue of the authorship of any provisions of this Agreement.

(b) The words “hereof,” “herein,” “hereby,” “hereunder” and “herewith” and words of similar import shall refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular provision of this Agreement. References to articles, sections, paragraphs, exhibits, annexes and schedules are to the articles, sections and paragraphs of, and exhibits, annexes and schedules to, this Agreement, unless otherwise specified, and the table of contents and headings in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement. Whenever the words “include,” “includes” or “including” are used in this Agreement, they shall be deemed to be followed by the phrase “without limitation.” Words describing the singular number shall be deemed to include the plural and vice versa, words denoting any gender shall be deemed to include all genders, words denoting natural persons shall be deemed to include business entities and vice versa and references to a Person are also to its permitted successors and assigns. The phrases “the date of this Agreement” and “the date hereof” and terms or phrases of similar import shall be deemed to refer to April 30, 2018, unless the context requires otherwise. References to any information or document being “made available” or “furnished” and words of similar import shall include such information or document having been posted to the Xxxxxxx “Project Kiawah” virtual data room (other than in a “clean team only” or other folder with limited access rights) hosted on behalf of

Terms defined in the text of this Agreement have such meaning throughout this Agreement, unless otherwise indicated in this Agreement, and all terms defined in this Agreement shall have the meanings when used in any certificate or other document made or delivered pursuant hereto unless otherwise defined therein. All references to “dollars” or “$” refer to currency of the United States.

9.05 Severability

If any term, provision, covenant or restriction of this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction or other authority to be invalid, void or unenforceable, the remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the Parties as closely as possible in a mutually acceptable manner in order that the Merger be consummated as originally contemplated to the fullest extent possible.

9.06 Assignment

Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations hereunder shall be assigned by any of the Parties (whether by operation of Applicable Law or otherwise) without the prior written consent of the other Parties, except that any Merger Sub may assign any or all of its rights, interests and obligations hereunder to one or more direct or indirect wholly owned Subsidiaries of Parent, or a combination thereof so long as such assignment would not materially delay, impair or prevent consummation of the Merger and so long as Parent remains primarily liable for Merger Sub’s obligations hereunder. Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement will be binding upon, inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Parties and their respective permitted successors and assigns. Any attempted assignment in violation of this Section 9.06 shall be null and void.

9.07 Entire Agreement

This Agreement (including the exhibits, annexes and appendices hereto and any other agreement entered into among Parent and/or Merger Sub, on the one hand, and the Company, on the other hand, in connection herewith) constitutes, together with the Confidentiality Agreement, the Company Disclosure Schedule and the Parent Disclosure Schedule, the entire agreement, and supersedes all other prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, among the Parties, or any of them, with respect to the subject matter hereof.

9.08 No Third-Party Beneficiaries

This Agreement is not intended to and shall not confer upon any Person other than the Parties any rights or remedies hereunder; provided, however, that it is specifically intended that the D&O Indemnified Parties (with respect to Section 6.06 and this Section 9.08 from and after the Effective Time) are intended third-party beneficiaries of such provisions.

Page 82

9.09 Governing Law

This Agreement and all Proceedings (whether based on contract, tort or otherwise) arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the actions of Parent, Merger Sub or the Company in the negotiation, administration, performance and enforcement thereof, shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the Applicable Laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to any choice or conflict of laws provision or rule (whether of the State of Delaware or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the Applicable Laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of Delaware.

9.10 Specific Performance

Each Party agrees that that irreparable damage for which monetary damages, even if available, would not be an adequate remedy, would occur in the event that any Party does not perform the provisions of this Agreement (including failing to take such actions as are required of it hereunder to consummate the Transactions) in accordance with its specified terms or otherwise breach such provisions. Accordingly, the Parties acknowledge and agree that, prior to any termination of this Agreement in accordance with Section 8.01, the Parties shall be entitled to an injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof, in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity. Each of the Parties agrees that it will not oppose the granting of an injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief on the basis that any other Party has an adequate remedy at law or that any award of specific performance is not an appropriate remedy for any reason at law or in equity. Any Party seeking an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement shall not be required to provide any bond or other security in connection with any such order or injunction.

9.11 Consent to Jurisdiction

(a) Each of the Parties hereby, with respect to any legal claim or Proceeding arising out of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (i) expressly and irrevocably submits, for itself and with respect to its property, generally and unconditionally, to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Delaware Court of Chancery and any appellate court therefrom within the State of Delaware (or, if the Delaware Court of Chancery declines to accept jurisdiction over a particular matter, any state or federal court within the State of Delaware), (ii) agrees that it will not attempt to deny or defeat such personal jurisdiction by motion or other request for leave from any such courts, (iii) agrees that it will not bring any claim or Proceeding relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement except in such courts and (iv) waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, and agrees not to assert, by way of motion or as a defense, counterclaim or otherwise, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any claim or Proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each of Parent, Merger Sub and the Company agrees that a final and nonappealable judgment in any Proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by Applicable Law.

Page 83

(b) Each Party irrevocably consents to the service of process in any claim or Proceeding with respect to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or for recognition and enforcement of any judgment in respect hereof brought by any other Party may be made by mailing copies thereof by registered or certified United States mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested, to its address as specified in or pursuant to Section 9.03 and such service of process shall be sufficient to confer personal jurisdiction over such Party in such claim or Proceeding and shall otherwise constitute effective and binding service in every respect.

9.12 Counterparts

This Agreement may be executed in multiple counterparts, all of which shall together be considered one and the same agreement. Delivery of an executed signature page to this Agreement by electronic transmission shall be as effective as delivery of a manually signed counterpart of this Agreement.

EACH OF PARENT, MERGER SUB AND THE COMPANY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE) BETWEEN ANY OF THEM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE ACTIONS OF PARENT, MERGER SUB OR THE COMPANY IN THE NEGOTIATION, ADMINISTRATION, PERFORMANCE AND ENFORCEMENT THEREOF.
