EFFECTS OF THE MERGER

Section 3.01.     Conversion of Securities.  At and as of the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of Parent, Merger Sub, the Company or the Company Stockholders (other than any requisite approval of the principal terms of the Merger by the Company Stockholders in accordance with the DGCL):

(a)        Each Company Share held in treasury and each Company Share that is owned, directly or indirectly, by a wholly owned Subsidiary of the Company, Parent or Merger Sub immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be cancelled and shall cease to exist, without any conversion thereof and no payment or distribution shall be made with respect thereto.

14

(b)        Each Company Share issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than Dissenting Shares and Company Shares to be cancelled in accordance with Section 3.01(a)) shall (i) be converted automatically into the right to receive the Merger Consideration, payable to the holder thereof, in accordance with Section 3.02, (ii) no longer be outstanding, (iii) automatically be cancelled and (iv) cease to exist. Each holder of any such converted and cancelled Company Share shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive the Merger Consideration, without interest. The Company Shares that are to be so converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration are referred to herein as the “Merger Shares.”

(c)        Each issued and outstanding share of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of Merger Sub shall be converted into and become one validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable share of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Surviving Corporation.

Section 3.02.     Payment of Merger Consideration; Surrender of Company Shares; Stock Transfer Books.

(a)        Prior to the Effective Time, Parent or Merger Sub shall appoint as exchange agent a bank or trust company reasonably satisfactory to the Company (the “Exchange Agent”) for the purpose of paying the Merger Consideration to Company Stockholders. Prior to the Effective Time, Parent shall deposit with the Exchange Agent, for the benefit of the holders of Merger Shares, shares of Parent Common Stock (which shall be in non-certificated book entry form) and an amount of cash sufficient to pay the aggregate Merger Consideration required to be issued and paid in accordance with this Agreement. Parent shall promptly deposit with the Exchange Agent from time to time as needed any cash in lieu of fractional shares of Parent Common Stock to be paid in consideration thereof pursuant to Section 3.02(j) and any dividends or other distributions which a holder of Company Shares has the right to receive pursuant to Section 3.02(i). All shares representing Parent Common Stock and cash deposited with the Exchange Agent are hereinafter referred to as the “Exchange Fund.” Parent will instruct the Exchange Agent to pay the Merger Consideration out of the Exchange Fund in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, and the Exchange Fund will not be used for any purpose other than the payment of the Merger Consideration and dividends and other distributions in accordance with this ARTICLE III. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any consideration payable in respect of Company Stock Options, Company Restricted Stock and/or Company Performance Share Units will not be deposited with the Exchange Agent but will instead be paid in accordance with Section 3.03.

(b)        The cash portion of the Exchange Fund shall be invested by the Exchange Agent as directed by Parent; provided that (i) such investments will be in obligations of, or guaranteed by, the United States of America or rated A-1 or P-1 or better by Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. or Standard & Poor’s Corporation, respectively, and (ii) no gain or loss thereon shall affect the amounts payable to the holders of Merger Shares following completion of the Merger pursuant to this ARTICLE III and Parent shall take all actions necessary to ensure that the Exchange Fund includes at all times cash sufficient to satisfy Parent’s obligation under this ARTICLE III. Subject to Parent’s obligations pursuant to this ARTICLE III, any and all interest and other income earned on the Exchange Fund shall promptly be paid to Parent or an Affiliate of Parent as directed by Parent.

(c)        As promptly as practicable after the Effective Time, but in no event more than three Business Day following the Effective Time, Parent and the Surviving Corporation shall cause the Exchange Agent to mail to each holder of record of Merger Shares (other than The Depository Trust Company or its nominee (“DTC”)) as of the Effective Time (and, to the extent commercially practicable, Parent will, or will cause the Exchange Agent to, make available for collection by hand, during customary business hours commencing immediately after the Effective Time, if so elected by any such holder) (i) a letter of transmittal (each such letter, a “Letter of Transmittal”) (which shall be in customary form approved by the Company) and (ii) instructions thereto for use in effecting the surrender of certificates representing Merger Shares (the “Company Share Certificates”) and uncertificated Merger Shares held of record in book entry form (“Uncertificated Company Shares”) in exchange for the Merger Consideration, including cash in lieu of any fractional shares payable pursuant to Section 3.02(j).

15

(d)        Upon surrender to the Exchange Agent of (i) Company Share Certificates or (ii) Uncertificated Company Shares in compliance with the procedures set forth in the Letter of Transmittal and instructions thereto, together with a Letter of Transmittal duly completed and validly executed in accordance with the instructions thereto, and such other documents as may be required pursuant to such instructions, the holder of such Company Share Certificates or Uncertificated Company Shares shall be entitled to receive as promptly as reasonably practicable in exchange therefor, (A) the number of shares of Parent Common Stock (which shall be in non-certificated book entry form unless a physical certificate is specifically requested) representing, in the aggregate, the whole number of shares of Parent Common Stock that such holder has the right to receive pursuant to this ARTICLE III and (B) the amount of cash such holder has the right to receive pursuant to this ARTICLE III. DTC, upon surrender of the Merger Shares held of record by it in accordance with the customary surrender procedures of DTC and the Exchange Agent, shall be entitled to receive as promptly as practicable in exchange for each surrendered Merger Share, (i) the number of shares of Parent Common Stock representing, in the aggregate, the whole number of shares of Parent Common Stock that DTC has the right to receive pursuant to this ARTICLE III and (ii) the amount of cash DTC has the right to receive pursuant to this ARTICLE III. Each Merger Share surrendered pursuant to this Section 3.02(d) will be cancelled. No interest shall be paid or will accrue on any cash payable to holders of Company Share Certificates or Uncertificated Company Shares, cash in lieu of fractional shares, or any unpaid dividends and distributions payable to holders of Company Share Certificates or Uncertificated Company Shares. No Person beneficially owning Company Shares through DTC will be required to deliver a Letter of Transmittal to receive the Merger Consideration. Any such Person will receive its Merger Consideration in accordance with the customary payment procedures of DTC following the Effective Time.

(e)        In the event of a transfer of ownership of Merger Shares that is not registered in the transfer records of the Company, payment of the Merger Consideration in respect of the applicable Merger Shares may be made to a Person other than the Person in whose name the Company Share Certificates or the Uncertificated Company Shares so surrendered are registered if such Company Share Certificates shall be properly endorsed or otherwise be in proper form for transfer or such Uncertificated Company Shares shall be properly documented for transfer and the Person requesting such payment shall pay any transfer Tax or other Taxes required by reason of the payment of the Merger Consideration in respect thereof or establish to the reasonable satisfaction of the Surviving Corporation that such Tax has been paid or is not applicable. Until surrendered as contemplated by this Section 3.02, each Company Share Certificate or Uncertificated Company Share shall be deemed at all times after the Effective Time to represent only the right to receive upon such surrender the Merger Consideration.

(f)        If any Company Share Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the Person claiming such Company Share Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed and, if required by the Surviving Corporation, the posting by such Person of a bond, in such reasonable amount as the Surviving Corporation may direct, as indemnity against any claim that may be made against it with respect to such Company Share Certificate, the Exchange Agent shall pay in respect of Merger Shares to which such lost, stolen or destroyed Company Share Certificate relates the Merger Consideration to which the holder thereof is entitled.

(g)        At the Effective Time, the stock transfer books of the Company shall be closed and there shall be no further registration of transfers of Merger Shares thereafter on the records of the Company. From and after the Effective Time, the holders of Company Share Certificates or Uncertificated Company Shares shall cease to have any rights with respect to such shares, except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, the certificate of incorporation of the Surviving Corporation or by applicable Law.

(h)        Any portion of the Exchange Fund that remains undistributed to the holders of Merger Shares for one year after the Effective Time shall be delivered to the Surviving Corporation, upon demand, and any holders of Merger Shares who have not theretofore complied with this ARTICLE III shall thereafter look only to the Surviving Corporation for, and the Surviving Corporation shall remain liable for, payment of their

16

claim for the Merger Consideration (and Parent shall take all actions necessary to ensure that the Surviving Corporation has or has access to sufficient funds and shares of Parent Common Stock to make such payments). Any portion of the Exchange Fund remaining unclaimed by holders of Merger Shares as of a date which is immediately prior to such time as such amounts would otherwise escheat to or become property of any Governmental Authority shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, become the property of the Surviving Corporation free and clear of any claims or interest of any Person previously entitled thereto. None of Parent, the Exchange Agent or the Surviving Corporation shall be liable to any holder of Merger Shares for any such shares (or dividends or distributions with respect thereto) or cash delivered to a public official pursuant to any abandoned property, escheat or similar Law.

(i)        No dividends or other distributions with respect to shares of Parent Common Stock issued in the Merger shall be paid to the holder of any unsurrendered Company Shares until such Company Shares are surrendered as provided in this Section 3.02. Following such surrender, subject to the effect of escheat, Tax or other applicable Law, there shall be paid, without interest, to the record holder of the shares of Parent Common Stock, if any, issued in exchange therefor (i) at the time of such surrender, all dividends and other distributions payable in respect of any such shares of Parent Common Stock with a record date after the Effective Time and a payment date on or prior to the date of such surrender and not previously paid, and (ii) at the appropriate payment date, the dividends or other distributions payable with respect to such shares of Parent Common Stock with a record date after the Effective Time but with a payment date subsequent to such surrender. For purposes of dividends or other distributions in respect of shares of Parent Common Stock, all shares of Parent Common Stock to be issued pursuant to the Merger shall be entitled to dividends pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence as if issued and outstanding as of the Effective Time.

(j)        No certificates or scrip representing fractional shares of Parent Common Stock shall be issued upon the surrender for exchange of Company Shares. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, each holder of Merger Shares who would otherwise have been entitled to receive a fraction of a share of Parent Common Stock (after taking into account all Company Shares (or affidavits of loss in lieu thereof) surrendered by such holder) shall be entitled to receive, from the Exchange Agent in accordance with the provisions of this Section 3.02(j), in lieu of such fractional shares, cash in the amount equal to such fractional amount multiplied by the Parent Common Stock Price.

Section 3.03.    Treatment of Stock Options, Restricted Stock and Company Performance Share Units.  As soon as reasonably practicable following the date of this Agreement, and in any event prior to the Effective Time, the Company Board (or, if appropriate, any committee administering any Company Equity Plan) will adopt resolutions, and the Company will take all other actions as may be necessary or required in accordance with applicable Law and each Company Equity Plan (including, the award agreements in respect of awards granted thereunder) to give effect to this Section 3.03, to provide that:

(a)        Each Company Stock Option that is outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (whether or not then vested or exercisable) shall, immediately prior to the Effective Time, automatically and without any action on the part of any holder of any Company Stock Option, vest in its entirety, be cancelled and, in exchange therefor, converted into the right of each holder of such Company Stock Option to receive from the Surviving Corporation:

(i)        an amount in cash in respect thereof, if any, equal to the product obtained by multiplying (A) the Cash Percentage by (B) the excess, if any, of the Deemed Value of Merger Consideration over the per share exercise price of such Company Stock Option by (C) the number of Company Shares subject to such Company Stock Option; and

(ii)        a number, rounded down to the nearest whole number, of shares of Parent Common Stock in respect thereof, if any, equal to the quotient of (A) the product obtained by multiplying (1) the Stock Percentage by (2) the excess, if any, of the Deemed Value of Merger Consideration over the per share

17

exercise price of such Company Stock Option by (3) the number of Company Shares subject to such Company Stock Option, divided by (B) the Parent Common Stock Price, together with cash in the amount equal to (1) the fractional amount of any shares that would, absent such rounding down, be issuable pursuant to this Section 3.03(a) (after taking into account all Company Stock Options held by such holder) multiplied by (2) the Parent Common Stock Price. Each Company Share issued upon exercise of a Company Stock Option that is properly exercised prior to the Closing shall be deemed to be an outstanding Merger Share for purposes of Section 3.01.

(b)        Each share of Company Restricted Stock that is outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall, immediately prior to the Effective Time, automatically and without any action on the part of the holder thereof, fully vest and the restrictions with respect thereto shall lapse, and shall be treated as an outstanding Merger Share for purposes of Section 3.01.

(c)        Each Company restricted stock unit that is subject to vesting based on the achievement of performance conditions (“Company Performance Share Unit”) that is outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall, immediately prior to the Effective Time, vest based on the greater of: (i) 100% of the target payout and (ii) the payout that would result under the Company Performance Share Unit based on the Company’s actual performance thereunder through the trading day immediately preceding the Closing Date, as provided in the award agreements for such Company Performance Share Units (provided, however, that the “Leveraged Performance Shares” listed on Section 4.04(c) of the Company Disclosure Schedule will vest based upon the greater of (i) the closing price per share of the Company Shares on NASDAQ on the trading day immediately preceding the Closing Date and (ii) the target share price as provided in the award agreements for such Leveraged Performance Shares), and each Company Share deemed to be issued in settlement thereof shall be deemed to be an outstanding Merger Share for purposes of Section 3.01.

(d)        The cash consideration payable in respect of Company Stock Options, Company Restricted Stock, and Company Performance Share Units shall be paid through the payroll department of the Surviving Corporation as promptly as reasonably practicable after the Effective Time in conjunction with the Surviving Corporation’s regular payroll process. The Parent Common Stock payable in respect of Company Stock Options, Company Restricted Stock, and Company Share Units shall be paid by Parent as promptly as reasonably practicable after the Effective Time.

(e)        Prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall deliver to the holders of the Company Stock Options, Company Restricted Stock and Company Performance Share Units notices, in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Parent, setting forth such holders’ rights pursuant to this Agreement.

(f)        Prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall take all actions necessary to terminate all of its Company Equity Plans, such termination to be effective at the Effective Time.

(g)        In connection with the termination of the Company Equity Plans, following the Effective Time, no holder of Company Stock Options, Company Restricted Stock and/or Company Performance Share Units, or any other participant in or beneficiary of the Company Equity Plans, will have any right to acquire or receive any equity securities of Parent, Surviving Corporation or any Subsidiary thereof or any consideration in respect thereof other than as expressly contemplated pursuant to this Section 3.03.

Section 3.04.      Dissenting Shares.

(a)        Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, Company Shares that are outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and that are held by any Company Stockholder who shall have neither voted in favor of the Merger nor consented thereto in writing and who shall have demanded properly in writing appraisal for such Company Shares in accordance with Section 262 of the DGCL (collectively, the “Dissenting Shares”) shall not be converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration as provided in

18

Section 3.01(b), but rather, the holders of Dissenting Shares shall be entitled only to payment of the appraised value of such Dissenting Shares in accordance with the provisions of Section 262 of the DGCL (and, at the Effective Time, such Dissenting Shares shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be cancelled and shall cease to exist, and such holders shall cease to have any right with respect thereto, except the right to receive the appraised value of such Dissenting Shares in accordance with the provisions of Section 262 of the DGCL); provided, however, that if any such holder shall fail to perfect or otherwise shall waive, withdraw or lose the right to appraisal under the provisions of Section 262 of the DGCL, then the right of such holder to be paid the appraised value of such holder’s Dissenting Shares shall cease and such Dissenting Shares shall be deemed to have been converted as of the Effective Time into, and to have become exchangeable solely for, the right to receive the Merger Consideration, without interest, as provided in Section 3.01(b).

(b)        The Company shall notify Parent as promptly as reasonably practicable of any demands received by the Company for appraisal of any Company Shares, withdrawals thereof and any other instruments delivered to the Company pursuant to Section 262 of the DGCL, and Parent shall have the right to participate in all negotiations and proceedings with respect to such demands. Prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall not, without the prior written consent of Parent, voluntarily make any payment with respect to, or settle or offer to settle, any such demands, or agree to do any of the foregoing. Any portion of the Merger Consideration made available to the Exchange Agent pursuant to Section 3.02(a) to pay for Dissenting Shares shall be returned to Parent upon demand.

Section 3.05.     Withholding Rights.  Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Company, the Surviving Corporation, Parent, Merger Sub and the Exchange Agent, as applicable, shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the Merger Consideration and any other payment otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement to any holder of Company Shares, Company Stock Options, Company Restricted Stock or Company Performance Share Units, as applicable, 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 state, local or foreign Tax Law. Any applicable Tax withholdings with respect to the consideration payable to a holder of Company Stock Options, Company Restricted Stock or Company Performance Share Units, as applicable, pursuant to Section 3.03 shall be withheld as follows: (a) an amount equal to the total applicable Tax withholding multiplied by the Cash Percentage shall be withheld from the cash consideration payable in respect of such holder’s Company Stock Options, Company Restricted Stock, or Company Performance Share Units, as applicable, and (b) the remaining amount of applicable Tax withholding shall reduce the shares of Parent Common Stock payable in respect of such holder’s Company Stock Options, Company Restricted Stock, or Company Performance Share Units, as applicable. To the extent that amounts are so withheld or paid over to or deposited with the applicable Tax authority, such amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the holder of the Company Shares, Company Stock Options, Company Restricted Stock or Company Performance Share Units, as applicable, in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made by the Company, the Surviving Corporation, Parent, Merger Sub or the Exchange Agent, as applicable.

Section 3.06.     Adjustments to Prevent Dilution.  Notwithstanding any provision of this ARTICLE III to the contrary, if between the date of this Agreement and the Effective Time the outstanding shares of Parent Common Stock or Company Shares shall have been changed into a different number of shares or a different class by reason of the occurrence or record date of any stock dividend, subdivision, reclassification, split, combination, exchange of shares or similar transaction, the Merger Consideration, the Per Share Cash Consideration and the Per Share Stock Consideration and any other similarly dependent item, as the case may be, shall be appropriately adjusted to reflect fully the effect of such stock dividend, subdivision, reclassification, split, combination, exchange of shares or similar transaction and to provide the holders of Company Shares the same economic effect as contemplated by this Agreement prior to such event; provided, however, that nothing in this Section 3.06 shall be construed as permitting the Company to take any action or enter into any transaction otherwise prohibited by this Agreement.

19

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE COMPANY

Except (a) as set forth in the Company Disclosure Schedule or (b) as set forth in the Company SEC Reports filed from and after January 1, 2014 and prior to the date of this Agreement (excluding all disclosures in any “Risk Factors” section and any disclosures included in any such Company SEC Reports that are forward looking in nature), but only to the extent such disclosure is reasonably apparent from a reading of such Company SEC Reports that such disclosure relates to such Section of ARTICLE IV below, the Company hereby represents and warrants to Parent and Merger Sub as follows:

Section 4.01.      Organization and Qualification.  The Company is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the Laws of the State of Delaware and has the requisite corporate power and authority to own, operate and lease its properties and assets and carry on its business as now conducted. The Company is duly qualified or licensed to do business as a foreign corporation and is, to the extent applicable, in good standing under the Laws of any other jurisdiction in which the character of the properties owned, leased or operated by it therein or in which the conduct or nature of its business makes such qualification or licensing necessary, except where the failure to be so qualified, licensed or in good standing has not had and would not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Company Material Adverse Effect.

Section 4.02.      Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws.  The Company has delivered to Parent copies of the Company Certificate and Company Bylaws, and the copies of such documents are complete and correct and contain all amendments and supplements thereto as in effect on the date of this Agreement. The Company Certificate and Company Bylaws are in full force and effect and the Company is not in violation of any of their respective provisions.

Section 4.03.      Company Subsidiaries.

(a)        Each of the Company’s Subsidiaries, together with the jurisdiction of organization or formation of each such Subsidiary, is set forth in Section 4.03(a) of the Company Disclosure Schedule. Other than the Company’s Subsidiaries, the Company does not own or control, directly or indirectly, any membership interest, partnership interest, joint venture interest, other equity interest or any other capital stock of any Person. Each of the Company’s Subsidiaries is a corporation, partnership, limited liability company, trust or other organization that is duly incorporated or organized, validly existing and, to the extent applicable, in good standing under the Laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation or organization. Each of the Company’s Subsidiaries has the requisite corporate, limited partnership, limited liability company or similar power and authority to own, lease and operate its properties and assets and to carry on its business as it is now being conducted. Each of the Company’s Subsidiaries is duly qualified or licensed to do business and is in good standing (to the extent such concept is applicable) in each jurisdiction where the character of the properties owned, leased or operated by it or the conduct or nature of its business makes such qualification or licensing necessary, except for jurisdictions in which the failure to be so qualified, licensed or in good standing has not had and would not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Company Material Adverse Effect.

Morgan Securities LLC, and Barclays Bank PLC and all fee letters associated therewith (such commitment letter and related terms sheets (with all pricing terms redacted (none of which redacted provisions will adversely affect the availability of, or impose conditions on, the availability of the Bridge Financing at the Closing)), together with all annexes, exhibits, schedules and attachments thereto and each such fee letter, in each case, as amended or otherwise modified only to the extent permitted by this Agreement, collectively, the “Commitment Letter”) to provide to Parent, subject to the terms and conditions therein, debt financing in an aggregate principal amount set forth therein (being collectively referred to as the “Bridge Financing”). As of the date of this Agreement, the Commitment Letter has not been amended or modified and the respective obligations and commitments contained therein have not been withdrawn, terminated or rescinded in any respect.

48

the Commitment Letter, in the form so delivered, is in full force and effect and is a legal, valid and binding obligation of Parent, and to the Knowledge of Parent, the other parties thereto, subject to the Bankruptcy and Equity Exception. Parent has fully paid any and all commitment fees and other fees in connection with the Commitment Letter that are payable on or prior to the date of this Agreement. The net cash proceeds of the Bridge Financing contemplated by the Commitment Letter will, together with cash and cash equivalents available to Parent, be sufficient (A) to consummate the Transactions upon the terms contemplated by this Agreement and to pay all related fees and expenses associated therewith, including payment of all amounts under ARTICLE II and ARTICLE III of this Agreement and (B) to fully satisfy all of the outstanding indebtedness of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to the extent required to be repaid in connection with the consummation of the Merger and the other Transactions (the aggregate amount described in this sentence is referred to as the “Required Amount”). As of the date of this Agreement, Parent has no reason to believe that any of the conditions precedent to closing of the Bridge Financing will not be satisfied, or that the Bridge Financing will not be made available to the Parent, in each case, at or prior to the Closing. As of the date of this Agreement, no event has occurred which, with or without notice, lapse of time or both, would constitute a default, event of default or breach on the part of Parent under any term or condition of the Commitment Letter or that would permit the financial institutions party thereto to terminate, or to not make the initial funding of the Bridge Financing at or prior to the Closing upon satisfaction of all conditions thereto set forth in, in each case, the Commitment Letter. Except as set forth in the Commitment Letter, there are no (a) conditions precedent to the respective obligations of the lenders specified in the Commitment Letter to fund the full amount of the Bridge Financing at or prior to the Closing; or (b) contractual contingencies under any agreements, side letters or arrangements relating to the Bridge Financing to which any of Parent, Merger Sub or any of their respective Affiliates is a party that would permit the lenders specified in the Commitment Letter to reduce the total amount of the Bridge Financing, or that would materially and adversely affect the availability to Parent of the Bridge Financing at or prior to the Closing.

Morgan Securities LLC, the fees of which will be paid by Parent, is entitled to any brokerage, finder’s or other fee or commission in connection with the Transactions based upon arrangements made by or on behalf of Parent or any of its Subsidiaries.

Section 5.29.     Anti-Takeover Laws.  None of Parent, Merger Sub or any other affiliate of Parent has been an “interested stockholder” (as such term is used in Section 203 of DGCL) with respect to the Company at any time within three years of the date of this Agreement.

Section 5.30.     No Other Representations or Warranties.  Except for the representations and warranties contained in ARTICLE IV, Parent acknowledges that none of the Company, the Subsidiaries of the Company or any other Person on behalf of the Company makes any other express or implied representation or warranty whatsoever, and specifically (but without limiting the generality of the foregoing) that none of the Company, the Subsidiaries of the Company or any other Person on behalf of the Company makes any representation or warranty with respect to any projections or forecasts delivered or made available to Parent or any of its Affiliates or Representatives of future revenues, results of operations (or any component thereof), cash flows or financial condition (or any component thereof) of the Company and the Subsidiaries of the Company (including any such projections or forecasts made available to Parent or its Affiliates and Representatives in certain “data rooms” or management presentations in expectation of the Transactions), and Parent has not relied on any such information or any representation or warranty not set forth in ARTICLE IV.

If at any time prior to the Effective Time any information relating to the Company or Parent, or any of their respective Affiliates, directors or officers, should be discovered by the Company or Parent which should be set forth in an amendment or supplement to either the Form S-4 or the Proxy Statement, so that either such document would not include any 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, the Party which discovers such information shall promptly notify the other Parties and an appropriate amendment or supplement describing such information shall be promptly filed with the SEC and, to the extent required by Law, disseminated to the Company Stockholders. The Parties shall notify each other promptly of the receipt of any comments from the SEC or the staff of the SEC and of any request by the SEC or the staff of the SEC for amendments or supplements to the Proxy Statement or the Form S-4 or for additional information and shall supply each other with copies of (i) all correspondence between it or any of its Representatives, on the one hand,

54

and the SEC or the staff of the SEC, on the other hand, with respect to the Proxy Statement, the Form S-4 or the Transactions and (ii) all orders of the SEC relating to the Form S-4.

(b)        The Company shall take all actions necessary in accordance with applicable Law, Orders and the Company Certificate and the Company Bylaws (i) to duly call, give notice of, convene and hold a special meeting of its stockholders as promptly as practicable, and in any event (to the extent permissible under applicable Law and Orders) as soon as practicable following the mailing of the definitive Proxy Statement to the Company Stockholders (but in no event later than 45 calendar days following the date of such mailing), for the purpose of considering the adoption of this Agreement (the “Company Stockholders’ Meeting”) and (ii) unless the Company Board shall have effected an Adverse Recommendation Change in accordance with Section 6.06(d), (A) include in the Proxy Statement the Company Board’s recommendation that the holders of the Company Shares vote in favor of the adoption of this Agreement (which recommendation shall be deemed a part of the Company Board Recommendation) and (B) use its reasonable best efforts to solicit from the Company Stockholders proxies in favor of the adoption of this Agreement and secure the vote or consent of the Company Stockholders as required by the rules of NASDAQ, the DGCL or other applicable Law to effect the Merger. The Company shall give Parent no less than 10 Business Days’ advance notice (or such shorter period of time as notice is provided to NASDAQ) of the date which shall be set as the “record date” for the Company Stockholders eligible to vote on this Agreement and the Transactions. The Company shall consult with Parent regarding the date of the Company Stockholders’ Meeting and shall not postpone or adjourn the Company Stockholders’ Meeting without the prior written consent of Parent; provided, however, that nothing herein shall prevent the Company from postponing or adjourning the Company Stockholders’ Meeting if and to the extent that: (i) there are holders of an insufficient number of Company Shares present or represented by a proxy at the Company Stockholders’ Meeting to constitute a quorum at the Company Stockholders’ Meeting and the Company uses its reasonable best efforts during any such postponement or adjournment to obtain such a quorum as soon as practicable, (ii) the Company is required to postpone or adjourn the Company Stockholders’ Meeting by applicable Law or Order or a request from the SEC or its staff and the Company uses its reasonable best efforts to hold or resume the Company Stockholders’ Meeting as soon as practicable, or (iii) the Company Board shall have determined in good faith (after consultation with outside legal counsel and Parent) that it is required by Law to postpone or adjourn the Company Stockholders’ Meeting, including in order to give Company Stockholders sufficient time to evaluate any information or disclosure that the Company has sent to the Company Stockholders or otherwise made available to the Company Stockholders by issuing a press release or filing materials with the SEC; provided that (A) the preceding clause (iii) shall not apply to allow a postponement or adjournment for any information or disclosure related to an Acquisition Proposal (including any Superior Proposal) and (B) no postponement or adjournment may be to a date on or after five Business Days prior to the Outside Date.

(c)        The Company shall ensure that the Company Stockholders’ Meeting is called, noticed, convened, held and conducted, and that all Persons solicited in connection with the Company Stockholders’ Meeting are solicited, in compliance with all applicable Law and Orders.

(d)        Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company agrees that (i) its obligation to duly call, give notice of, convene and hold the Company Stockholders’ Meeting shall not be affected by the withdrawal, amendment or modification of the Company Board Recommendation and (ii) its obligations pursuant to this Section 6.04 shall not be affected by the commencement, public proposal, public disclosure or communication to the Company of any Acquisition Proposal (whether or not a Superior Proposal). Unless this Agreement is terminated in accordance with Section 8.01, the Company agrees that it shall not submit to the vote of the Company Stockholders any Acquisition Proposal (whether or not a Superior Proposal) prior to the vote of the Company Stockholders with respect to the Merger at the Company Stockholders’ Meeting.

Section 6.05.      Access to Information; Confidentiality.

(a)        Subject to applicable Laws relating to the exchange of information, from the date of this Agreement until the earlier to occur of the Effective Time and the termination of this Agreement in

55

accordance with its terms, each of the Company and Parent shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries and its Representatives to, afford the other and its Representatives (including Parent’s financing sources and their respective Representatives) reasonable access during normal working hours upon reasonable advance notice to all of its officers, employees, agents, assets, properties, offices, plants and other facilities, books and records and shall timely furnish the other with such financial, operating, business, financial condition, projections and other data and information as the other or its Representatives (including Parent’s financing sources, through their Representatives), may reasonably request. Each of the Company and Parent shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries and its Representatives to, provide to the other Party and its Representatives (including Parent’s financing sources) information that is complete and correct in all material respects and does not and will not, when taken as a whole, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements contained therein, in the light of the circumstances under which such statements are made, not misleading.

(b)        Any investigation conducted pursuant to the access contemplated by this Section 6.05 shall be conducted in a manner that does not unreasonably interfere with the conduct of the business of any of Parent, the Company or any of their respective Subsidiaries or damage or destroy any property or assets of any of Parent, the Company or any of their respective Subsidiaries. All information obtained by the Company, Parent or Merger Sub pursuant to this Section 6.05 shall be held confidential in accordance with the Nondisclosure Agreement, dated August 11, 2014 (the “Confidentiality Agreement”), between Parent and the Company; provided that nothing herein or in the Confidentiality Agreement shall prevent Parent or its financing sources from using all information obtained pursuant to this Section 6.05 or Section 6.09 as necessary and appropriate to consummate the Bridge Financing and/or Replacement Financing except that material, non-public information may not be included without the Company’s prior written consent, unless such material, non-public information has been provided specifically for inclusion in the Bridge Financing or the Replacement Financing.

(c)        After the date of this Agreement, Parent and the Company shall cooperate to establish a mechanism acceptable to both Parent and the Company by which Parent will be permitted, prior to the Effective Time or the Termination Date, as the case may be, and subject to applicable Law, to communicate directly with the Company employees regarding employee related matters.

(d)        This Section 6.05 shall not require either the Company or Parent to permit any access, or to disclose any information, that in the reasonable, good faith judgment (after consultation with outside counsel) of such Party would reasonably be expected to result in (i) any violation of any Contract or Law to which such Party or its Subsidiaries is a party or is subject or cause any privilege (including attorney-client privilege) which such Party or any of its Subsidiaries would be entitled to assert to be undermined with respect to such information and such undermining of such privilege could in such Party’s good faith judgment (after consultation with outside counsel) adversely affect in any material respect such Party’s position in any pending or, what such Party believes in good faith (after consultation with outside counsel) could reasonably be expected to be, future litigation or (ii) if such Party or any of its Subsidiaries, on the one hand, and the other or any of its Subsidiaries, on the other hand, are adverse parties in a litigation, such information being reasonably pertinent thereto; provided that, in the cases of clause (i), the Parties shall cooperate in seeking to find a way to allow disclosure of such information (including by entering into a joint-defense or similar agreement) to the extent doing so (1) would not (in the good faith belief of the Party being requested to disclose the information (after consultation with outside counsel)) reasonably be likely to result in the violation of any such Contract or Law or reasonably be likely to cause such privilege to be undermined with respect to such information or (2) could reasonably (in the good faith belief of the Party being requested to disclose the information (after consultation with outside counsel)) be managed through the use of customary “clean-room” arrangements pursuant to which non-employee Representatives of the other Party shall be provided access to such information; provided, further, that the Party being requested to disclose the information shall (x) notify the other that such disclosures are reasonably likely to violate its or its Subsidiaries’ obligations under any such Contract or Law or are reasonably likely to cause such privilege to be undermined, (y) communicate to the other in reasonable detail the facts giving rise to such notification and the subject matter of such information (to the extent it is able to do so in accordance

56

with the first proviso in this Section 6.05(d)) and (z) in the case where such disclosures are reasonably likely to violate its or its Subsidiaries’ obligations under any Contract, use reasonable commercial efforts to seek consent from the applicable third party to any such Contract with respect to the disclosures prohibited thereby (to the extent not otherwise expressly prohibited by the terms of such Contract).

(e)        No investigation, or information received, pursuant to this Section 6.05 will modify any of the representations and warranties of the Parties.

Section 6.06.      No Solicitation.

(a)        The Company shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries and Representatives to, immediately cease and terminate, or cause to be terminated, any and all discussions, solicitations, encouragements or negotiations with any Person conducted heretofore with respect to an Acquisition Proposal and shall promptly request (or, to the extent the Company is contractually permitted to do so, require) the return or destruction of all copies of confidential information previously provided to such parties by or on behalf of the Company, its Subsidiaries or Representatives. From the date of this Agreement until the earlier of the Effective Time or the termination of this Agreement in accordance with Section 8.01, subject to Section 6.06(b), the Company shall not, and shall cause its Subsidiaries and Representatives not to, directly or indirectly, (i) solicit, initiate, cause, knowingly facilitate or encourage (including by way of furnishing information) the submission of any inquiries, proposals or offers or any other efforts or attempts that constitute or may reasonably be expected to lead to any Acquisition Proposal, or engage in any discussions or negotiations with respect thereto or otherwise cooperate with or assist or participate in, or knowingly facilitate or encourage, any such inquiries, proposals, discussions or negotiations, or resolve to or publicly propose to take any of the foregoing actions, (ii) approve or recommend, or resolve to or publicly propose to approve or recommend, any Acquisition Proposal or enter into any merger agreement, agreement-in-principle, letter of intent, share purchase agreement, asset purchase agreement, share exchange agreement, option agreement or other similar agreement relating to an Acquisition Proposal or enter into any letter of intent, agreement or agreement-in-principle requiring the Company (whether or not subject to conditions) to abandon, terminate or fail to consummate the Merger or (iii) (A) withdraw, modify or qualify in a manner adverse to Parent or Merger Sub the Company Board Recommendation or the approval or declaration of advisability by the Company Board of this Agreement and the Transactions (including the Merger) or (B) approve or recommend, or resolve to or publicly propose to approve or recommend, any Acquisition Proposal (any action described in clause (A) or (B) being referred to as an “Adverse Recommendation Change”).

(b)        Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 6.06(a), if at any time following the date of this Agreement and prior to obtaining the Company Stockholder Approval, (i) the Company has received from a third party a written, bona fide Acquisition Proposal, (ii) a breach by the Company of this Section 6.06 has not contributed to the making of such Acquisition Proposal, (iii) the Company Board determines in good faith, after consultation with its financial advisors and outside counsel, that such Acquisition Proposal constitutes or is reasonably likely to lead to a Superior Proposal and (iv) after consultation with its outside counsel, the Company Board determines in good faith that failure to take such action would constitute a breach by the Company Board of its fiduciary duties to the Company Stockholders under applicable Law, then the Company may, subject to clauses (x), (y) and (z) below, (A) furnish confidential information with respect to the Company and its Subsidiaries to the Person making such Acquisition Proposal and (B) participate in discussions or negotiations with the Person making such Acquisition Proposal regarding such Acquisition Proposal; provided, however, that the Company (x) will not, and will not allow its Representatives to, disclose any non-public information to such Person unless the Company first enters into an Acceptable Confidentiality Agreement with such Person, (y) will promptly (and in any event within 24 hours) provide to Parent notice of its intention to enter into such Acceptable Confidentiality Agreement and (z) will promptly (and in any event within 24 hours) provide to Parent any and all non-public information delivered to such Person which was not previously provided to Parent.

57

(c)        From and after the date of this Agreement and prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall promptly (and in any event within 24 hours) notify Parent, in writing, in the event that the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or Representatives receives (i) any Acquisition Proposal or indication by any Person that it is considering making an Acquisition Proposal, (ii) any request for non-public information in contemplation of an Acquisition Proposal relating to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or (iii) any inquiry or request for discussions or negotiations regarding any Acquisition Proposal. The Company shall provide Parent promptly (and in any event within 24 hours) with the identity of such Person and a copy of such Acquisition Proposal, indication, inquiry or request (or, where such Acquisition Proposal is not in writing, a written description of the Company’s understanding of the material terms and conditions of such Acquisition Proposal, indication, inquiry or request), including any modifications thereto. The Company shall keep Parent reasonably informed on a current basis (and in any event no later than 24 hours after the occurrence of any material changes, developments, discussions or negotiations) of the status of any Acquisition Proposal, indication, inquiry or request (including the material terms and conditions thereof and of any material modification thereto), and any material developments, discussions and negotiations, including furnishing copies of any written inquiries, correspondence and draft documentation, and written summaries of any material oral inquiries or discussions. Without limiting the foregoing, the Company shall promptly (and in any event within 24 hours) notify Parent in writing if it determines to begin providing information or to engage in discussions or negotiations concerning an Acquisition Proposal in accordance with Section 6.06(b) and shall in no event begin providing such information or engaging in such discussions or negotiations prior to providing such notice. The Company shall not, and shall cause its Subsidiaries and Representatives not to, enter into any Contract with any Person subsequent to the date of this Agreement that would restrict the Company’s ability to provide such information relating to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to Parent, and neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries is currently party to any Contract that prohibits the Company from providing the information relating to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries described in this Section 6.06(c) to Parent. The Company (x) shall not, and shall cause its Subsidiaries not to, terminate, waive, amend or modify any provision of, or grant permission or request under, any standstill or confidentiality agreement to which it or any of its Subsidiaries is or becomes a party and (y) shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, use reasonable best efforts to enforce the provisions of any such agreement.

(d)        Notwithstanding anything in Section 6.06(a) to the contrary, if (i) the Company receives from a third party a written, bona fide Acquisition Proposal, (ii) a breach by the Company of this Section 6.06 has not contributed to the making of such Acquisition Proposal and (iii) the Company Board determines in good faith, after consultation with its financial advisors and outside counsel, that such Acquisition Proposal constitutes a Superior Proposal after giving effect to all of the adjustments to the terms of this Agreement which may be offered by Parent, including pursuant to clause (III) below, the Company Board may at any time prior to the Effective Time, if it determines in good faith, after consultation with its outside counsel, that failure to take such action would constitute a breach by the Company Board of its fiduciary duties to the Company Stockholders under applicable Law, (x) effect an Adverse Recommendation Change and/or (y) terminate this Agreement to enter into a definitive agreement with respect to such Superior Proposal; provided, however, that the Company shall not terminate this Agreement pursuant to the foregoing clause (y), and any purported termination pursuant to the foregoing clause (y) shall be void and of no force or effect, unless in advance of or concurrently with such termination the Company (A) pays, or causes to be paid, the Termination Fee to Parent in immediately available funds and (B) concurrently with such termination enters into the Alternative Acquisition Agreement; provided, further, however, that the Company Board may not effect an Adverse Recommendation Change pursuant to the foregoing clause (x) or terminate this Agreement pursuant to the foregoing clause (y) unless (I) the Company shall not have breached this Section 6.06 in a manner that contributed to the making of such Superior Proposal, (II) the Company shall have provided prior written notice to Parent, at least five Business Days in advance (the “Notice Period”), of its intention to take such action with respect to such Superior Proposal, which notice shall specify the material terms and conditions of any such Superior Proposal (including the identity of the party making such Superior Proposal), and shall have contemporaneously provided to Parent a copy of any proposed definitive agreement(s) with respect to such Superior Proposal (the “Alternative Acquisition Agreement”), (III) prior to effecting such Adverse

58

Recommendation Change or terminating this Agreement to enter into an Alternative Acquisition Agreement with respect to such Superior Proposal, the Company shall, and shall cause its financial advisors and outside counsel to, during the Notice Period, negotiate with Parent in good faith (to the extent Parent desires to negotiate) to make such adjustments in the terms and conditions of this Agreement so that such Acquisition Proposal ceases to constitute a Superior Proposal and (IV) following any negotiation described in the immediately preceding clause (III), such Acquisition Proposal (taking into account any changes to the terms of this Agreement agreed to or proposed by Parent in connection with the negotiations required by clause (III)) continues to constitute a Superior Proposal. In the event of any material revisions to the terms of an Acquisition Proposal after the start of the Notice Period, the Company shall be required to deliver a new written notice to Parent and to comply with the requirements of this Section 6.06(d) with respect to such new written notice, and the Notice Period shall be deemed to have re-commenced on the date of such new notice.

(e)        Notwithstanding anything in Section 6.06(a) to the contrary, if (i) a material development or change in circumstances in the business, results of operations or financial condition of the Company and its Subsidiaries (other than and not related to an Acquisition Proposal) that was neither known to nor reasonably foreseeable by the Company Board (assuming, for such purpose, reasonable consultation with the executive officers of the Company) on or prior to the date of this Agreement occurs or arises after the date of this Agreement and prior to obtaining the Company Stockholder Approval (such development or change, an “Intervening Event”), (ii) the Intervening Event did not result or arise from a material breach of any provision of this Agreement and (iii) the Company Board determines in good faith, after consultation with its outside counsel, that, in light of the existence of such Intervening Event, the failure to make an Adverse Recommendation Change would constitute a breach by the Company Board of its fiduciary duties to the Company Stockholders under applicable Law, the Company Board may, at any time prior to the Company Stockholder Approval, effect an Adverse Recommendation Change, provided that the Company Board shall not make an Adverse Recommendation Change in light of the existence of such Intervening Event unless (A) the Company has provided to Parent at least five Business Days prior written notice of its intention to take such action with respect to such Intervening Event, which notice shall specify, in reasonable detail, the facts underlying the Company Board’s determination that an Intervening Event has occurred and the rationale and basis for such Adverse Recommendation Change, (B) the Company shall, and shall cause its financial advisors and outside counsel to, during such five Business Day notice period, negotiate with Parent in good faith (to the extent Parent desires to negotiate) to make such adjustments in the terms and conditions of this Agreement so as to obviate the need for an Adverse Recommendation Change as a result of the Intervening Event and (C) following any negotiation described in the immediately preceding clause (B), the Company Board determines in good faith, after consultation with its outside counsel, that the failure to make such Adverse Recommendation Change in light of such Intervening Event (taking into account any changes to the terms of this Agreement agreed to or proposed by Parent in connection with the negotiations required by the immediately preceding clause (B)) would constitute a breach of its fiduciary duties to the Company Stockholders under applicable Law. In the event of any material change in the circumstances of such Intervening Event or the occurrence of another Intervening Event, the Company shall be required to deliver a new written notice to Parent and to comply with the requirements of this Section 6.06(e) with respect to such new written notice.

(f)        Any breaches by any of the Representatives of the Company of the restrictions set forth in this Section 6.06 applicable to the Company’s Subsidiaries or Representatives shall be deemed to be a breach of the restrictions set forth in this Section 6.06 by the Company for all purposes of this Agreement.

(g)        Nothing contained in this Section 6.06 shall prohibit the Company Board from taking and disclosing to the Company Stockholders a position contemplated by Rule 14e-2(a), Rule 14d-9 or Item 1012(a) of Regulation M-A promulgated under the Exchange Act; provided, however, that any disclosure other than (i) a “stop, look and listen” or similar communication of the type contemplated by Rule 14d-9(f) under the Exchange Act, (ii) an express rejection of any applicable Acquisition Proposal or (iii) an express reaffirmation of the Company Board Recommendation together with a factual description of events or actions leading up to such disclosure that have been taken by the Company and that are permitted under this Section 6.06

59

or actions taken or notices delivered to Parent by the Company that are required by this Section 6.06, shall, in each case, be deemed to be an Adverse Recommendation Change (including for purposes of Section 8.01(f)).

(h)        The Company shall not take any action to exempt any Person (other than Parent, Merger Sub and their respective Affiliates) from the provisions of “control share acquisitions” contained in any Anti-Takeover Law or otherwise cause such restrictions not to apply, in each case unless such actions are taken simultaneously with a termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.01(h).

Section 6.07.      Employee Matters.

(a)        From the Effective Time until the date that is 12 months after the Closing Date, Parent shall cause the compensation and benefits package provided to the employees of the Company and its Subsidiaries as of the Effective Time under the Company Plans listed on Section 4.12(a) of the Company Disclosure Schedule (the “Company Employees”) to be substantially comparable to the compensation and benefits package, in the aggregate, provided to (i) the Company Employees immediately prior to the Effective Time and (ii) similarly situated Parent employees, in each case excluding for purposes of this comparison any equity-based compensation; provided, however, that during such 12-month period, Parent or the Surviving Corporation, as the case may be, may reduce the compensation or benefits of such Company Employees if such reductions in compensation or benefits are made equitably and as part of an across-the-board reduction applicable to all employees within the United States.

(b)        From and after the Effective Time, Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to comply in all material respects with its obligations under all employment and severance agreements listed on Section 4.12(a) of the Company Disclosure Schedule that are in effect as of the Effective Time, in each case, subject to the terms and conditions of each such agreement.

(c)        For purposes of eligibility, vesting and, solely with respect to severance and vacation, level of benefit entitlement (but in no event for purposes of benefit accrual or eligibility for retiree medical or other retiree welfare benefits) under the Parent Plans, each Company Employee shall, subject to applicable Law and applicable Tax qualification requirements, be credited with his or her years of service with the Company and its Subsidiaries and their respective predecessors before the Effective Time, to the same extent as such Company Employee was entitled, before the Effective Time, to credit for such service under any similar Plans in which such Company Employee participated or was eligible to participate immediately prior to the Effective Time; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not apply to the extent that its application would result in a duplication of benefits.

(d)        For purposes of each Parent Plan providing medical, dental, pharmaceutical or vision benefits to any Company Employee, Parent shall use reasonable best efforts to cause all pre-existing condition exclusions and actively-at-work requirements of such Parent Plan to be waived for such Company Employee and his or her covered dependents, unless such conditions would not have been waived under a similar Plan in which such Company Employee participated immediately prior to the Effective Time and Parent shall use reasonable best efforts to cause any eligible expenses incurred by such employee and his or her covered dependents under the Parent Plans during the portion of the plan year of the Parent Plan ending on the date such employee’s participation in the corresponding Parent Plan begins to be taken into account under such Parent Plan for purposes of satisfying all deductible and maximum out-of-pocket requirements applicable to such employee and his or her covered dependents for the applicable plan year as if such amounts had been paid in accordance with such Parent Plan.

(e)        At Parent’s election, the Company shall terminate, effective as of the day immediately preceding the Effective Time, any and all 401(k) Plans sponsored or maintained by the Company. In such event, Parent shall receive from the Company evidence that the Company’s Plan(s) and/or program(s) have been terminated pursuant to resolutions of the Company Board or a committee thereof (the form and substance of

60

which shall be subject to review and approval of Parent), effective as of the day immediately preceding the Effective Time.

(f)        Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing contained in this Section 6.07 shall (i) be treated as an amendment of any particular Plan, (ii) give any third party any right to enforce the provisions of this Section 6.07 or (iii) require Parent or any of its Affiliates to (A) maintain any particular Plan or (B) retain the employment of any particular employee.

Section 6.08.      Directors’ and Officers’ Indemnification and Insurance of the Surviving Corporation.

(a)        To the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to honor all of the Company’s obligations to indemnify and hold harmless each person who is now, or has been at any time prior to the date of this Agreement or who becomes prior to the Effective Time an officer or director of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (each an “Indemnified Party”) as provided in the Company Certificate or Company Bylaws, in each case, as in effect on the date of this Agreement, or pursuant to any other agreements in effect on the date of this Agreement, accurate and complete copies of which have been provided to Parent and are listed in Section 6.08(a) of the Company Disclosure Schedule, including provisions relating to the advancement of expenses incurred in the defense of any Action or as permitted under applicable Law. Parent’s obligation under this Section 6.08(a) shall survive the Merger and shall remain in full force and effect for a period of not less than six years after the Effective Time. During such period, Parent shall guarantee the obligations of the Surviving Corporation with respect to any and all amounts payable under this Section 6.08.

(b)        In addition to Parent’s indemnification obligations pursuant to Section 6.08(a) above, prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall purchase a “tail” officers’ and directors’ liability insurance policy, which by its terms shall survive the Merger and shall provide each Indemnified Party with coverage for not less than six years following the Effective Time on terms and conditions no less favorable than the terms of the directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy currently maintained by the Company (a correct and complete copy of which has been made available to Parent) in respect of actions or omissions of such officers and directors prior to the Effective Time in their capacities as such; provided, however, that in no event shall the Company expend more than 300% of the current annual premium paid by the Company for such policy to purchase the “tail” policy (the “Maximum Amount”); provided, further, however, that if the amount of the annual premiums necessary to procure such insurance coverage exceeds the Maximum Amount, the Company shall spend up to the Maximum Amount to purchase such lesser coverage as may be obtained with such Maximum Amount. The Indemnified Parties may be required to make reasonable application and provide reasonable and customary representations and warranties to applicable insurance carriers for the purpose of obtaining such insurance.

(c)        The obligations of Parent and the Surviving Corporation under this Section 6.08 shall survive the consummation of the Merger and shall not be terminated or modified in such a manner as to adversely affect any Indemnified Party to whom this Section 6.08 applies without the consent of such affected Indemnified Party (it being expressly agreed that the Indemnified Parties to whom this Section 6.08 applies shall be third party beneficiaries of this Section 6.08, each of whom may enforce the provisions of this Section 6.08).

(d)        If 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 all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any Person, then, and in each such case, proper provision shall be made so that the successors and assigns of Parent or the Surviving Corporation, as the case may be, shall assume the obligations set forth in this Section 6.08.

Section 6.09.      Financing Arrangements.

(a)        Except to the extent Parent (or an Affiliate of Parent) has consummated Replacement Financing, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Parent will use its reasonable best efforts to

61

take, or cause to be taken, all actions and to do, or cause to be done, all things necessary, proper or advisable to arrange and obtain the Bridge Financing, if necessary, at or prior to the Closing on the terms and conditions described in the Commitment Letter, and, without the Company’s prior written consent, will not permit any amendment or modification to be made to, or any waiver of any provision or remedy under, the Commitment Letter if such amendment, modification or waiver would (i) reduce the aggregate amount of the Bridge Financing as provided in the Commitment Letter as of the date of this Agreement (except to the extent of any consummated Replacement Financing), or (ii) impose new or additional conditions, or otherwise amend, modify or expand any conditions, in each case, to the receipt by Parent at or prior to the closing of the Bridge Financing; provided, however, that Parent and Merger Sub may (i) amend the Commitment Letter to add lenders, lead arrangers, bookrunners, syndication agents or similar entities who had not executed the Commitment Letter as of the date of this Agreement if the addition of such parties individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to materially delay or prevent the consummation of the Bridge Financing or the Closing or (ii) otherwise amend or replace the Commitment Letter so long as (A) such amendment does not impose terms or conditions that would reasonably be expected to materially delay or prevent the Closing, (B) the terms are not, taken as a whole, materially less favorable to Parent or Merger Sub than those in the Commitment Letter as in effect on the date of this Agreement and (C) with respect to replacements, the replacement debt commitments otherwise satisfy the terms and conditions of an Alternative Financing set forth below. In the event of such amendment or replacement of the Commitment Letter as permitted by the proviso to the immediately preceding sentence, the financing under such amended or replaced Commitment Letter will be deemed to be “Bridge Financing” as such term is used in this Agreement. Except to the extent Parent (or an Affiliate of Parent) has consummated Replacement Financing, Parent shall notify the Company as soon as reasonably practicable if, at any time prior to the Closing Date, (i) the Commitment Letter shall expire or be terminated for any reason, (ii) any financing source that is a party to the Commitment Letter notifies Parent that such source no longer intends to provide financing to Parent or (iii) for any reason Parent no longer believes in good faith that it will be able to obtain any of the Bridge Financing substantially on the terms described in the Commitment Letter. Parent will use its reasonable best efforts to (i) maintain in effect the Commitment Letter (including any definitive agreements entered into in connection therewith), (ii) satisfy when required by the Commitment Letter as in effect on the date of this Agreement all conditions in the Commitment Letter applicable to Parent and Merger Sub to obtaining the Bridge Financing at or prior to the Closing, (iii) negotiate and enter into definitive agreements with respect to the Commitment Letter on terms and conditions contained in the Commitment Letter or consistent in all material respects with the Commitment Letter at or prior to the Closing (such definitive agreements, together with the Commitment Letter, the “Financing Agreements”) and promptly upon execution thereof provide complete executed copies of such definitive agreements to the Company, (iv) upon satisfaction of the conditions contained in the Commitment Letter, consummate the Bridge Financing at or prior to the Closing and (v) fully enforce its rights under the Commitment Letter. Parent will keep the Company reasonably informed on a timely basis of the status of Parent’s and Merger Sub’s efforts to arrange the Bridge Financing and to satisfy the conditions thereof, including, upon Company’s reasonable request, advising and updating the Company, in a reasonable level of detail, with respect to status, proposed closing date under the Financing Agreements (which shall be at or prior to the Closing) and material terms of the material definitive documentation for the Bridge Financing, provided that, except as required by Section 6.05, in no event will Parent be under any obligation to disclose any information that is subject to attorney-client or similar privilege if Parent shall have used reasonable best efforts to disclose such information in a way that would not waive such privilege.

(b)        Except to the extent Parent has consummated Replacement Financing, if the Commitment Letter shall expire or terminate for any reason, or if any portion of that amount of the Bridge Financing necessary to consummate the Transactions becomes reasonably likely to be unavailable on the material terms and conditions contemplated by the applicable Financing Agreements, (i) Parent will promptly notify the Company and (ii) Parent will use its reasonable best efforts to arrange and obtain, as promptly as practicable following the occurrence of such event, a new debt financing commitment that provides for a debt financing, the net cash proceeds of which, together with cash and cash equivalents available to Parent, will be sufficient to consummate the Transactions and to pay the Required Amount, in each case, with conditions not materially less favorable, taken as a whole, to Parent, Merger Sub and the Company than the conditions set forth in the

62

Commitment Letter as in effect on the date of this Agreement, which new commitment shall include a termination date not earlier than the Outside Date (“Alternative Financing”). In such event, (i) the term “Bridge Financing” as used in this Agreement will be deemed to include the Alternative Financing, (ii) the term “Commitment Letter” will be deemed to include any commitment letters, together with all annexes, exhibits, schedules and attachments thereto, and all term sheets and fee letters related thereto, in each case, with respect to the Alternative Financing, and (iii) the term “Financing Agreements” will be deemed to include any definitive agreement with respect to the Alternative Financing. Parent shall accept any such commitment letters if the funding conditions and other terms and conditions contained therein are not materially adverse to Parent in comparison with those contained in the Commitment Letter as in effect on the date of this Agreement.

(c)        Prior to the Closing, and without limiting its obligations pursuant to Section 6.05(a), the Company shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, and shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause their respective Representatives to, in each case, provide to Parent all cooperation reasonably requested by Parent in connection with the arrangement and consummation of the Bridge Financing and/or Replacement Financing (including the satisfaction of the conditions precedent set forth therein), including, without limitation (in each case, to the extent reasonably requested):

(i)        participating in a reasonable number of meetings, presentations, road shows, due diligence sessions, drafting sessions and sessions between senior management and prospective lenders, investors and rating agencies;

(ii)        assisting with the preparation by Parent of materials for rating agency presentations (and assisting in the obtaining of corporate, credit and facility ratings by Parent from ratings agencies), offering documents, private placement memoranda, bank information memoranda and similar documents required in connection with such financing and all documentation and, if required in writing by Parent at least 10 Business Days prior to the Closing Date, furnish Parent within three Business Days of the Closing Date all information required in connection with applicable “know your customer” and anti-money laundering rules and regulations, including the U.S.A. Patriot Act of 2001;

(iii)        using its reasonable best efforts to (A) execute and deliver any pledge and security documents, currency or interest hedging arrangements, other definitive financing documents, and any other documents reasonably requested by Parent in connection with facilitating the pledge of collateral, including Intellectual Property, in each case provided such documents, arrangements and other financing documents are effective following the Closing and are conditioned on consummation of the Merger, and (B) seek to obtain the consent of accountants for use of their reports in any materials relating to the Replacement Financing;

(iv)        (A) furnishing to Parent and its financing sources all audited and unaudited financial statements, business and other financial data, audit reports and other information regarding the Company of the type customarily included in offering memoranda for private placements pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act (other than (i) separate financial statements and footnote disclosures with respect to guarantors required by Rule 3-10 of Regulation S-X under the Securities Act, it being understood that customary non-guarantor financial information on a percentage basis shall be provided, and (ii) separate financial statements with respect to subsidiaries pursuant to Rule 3-16 of Regulation S-X under the Securities Act), to consummate a Rule 144A offering of debt securities (provided that Parent shall be responsible for the preparation of pro forma financial statements), and such information shall be of the type and form that would be necessary for the investment banks to receive from the Company’s independent accountants customary (for high yield debt securities) “comfort” (including “negative assurance” comfort) with respect to the financial information to be included in such offering documents and other pertinent information regarding the Company and its Subsidiaries as may be reasonably requested in writing by Parent; and (B) furnishing to Parent and its financing sources information required in connection with confidential information memoranda and the lenders’ presentation in respect of the Bridge Financing or Replacement Financing, in each case customarily used for the syndication of either such financing;

63

(v)        providing customary authorization and management representation letters representing (without any knowledge or similar qualifier) that the information contained in any confidential information memorandum or lender presentation does not include any material non-public information about the Company and its Subsidiaries and designating the information provided to Parent’s financing sources as suitable to be made available to lenders who do not wish to receive such material non-public information;

(vi)        providing monthly financial statements (excluding footnotes) of the Company to the extent the Company customarily prepares such financial statements and pursuant to the historical practices of the Company;

(vii)        using reasonable best efforts to assist Parent in obtaining accountants’ comfort letters, consents, surveys, legal opinions from local outside counsel (and not internal counsel) and title insurance as reasonably requested by Parent for the Bridge Financing and/or Replacement Financing; and

(viii)        subject to Section 6.05, taking all actions reasonably necessary to (A) permit the prospective lenders involved in the Bridge Financing and/or Replacement Financing to evaluate the Company and its Subsidiaries’ current assets, cash management and accounting systems, policies and procedures relating thereto for the purpose of establishing collateral arrangements, (B) establish bank and other accounts and blocked account agreements and lock box arrangements in connection with the Bridge Financing to take effect at the Closing, and (C) permit representatives of the prospective lenders to conduct commercial field examinations, inventory appraisals and an appraisal of the owned real estate, and use commercially reasonable efforts to make audits and appraisals available to the Parent for purposes of the Bridge Financing, provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this clause (vi), in no event shall Parent or any such lender be permitted to contact any customer, vendor or supplier of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries without the Company’s prior written consent.

Nothing in this Section 6.09(c) shall require such cooperation to the extent it would interfere unreasonably with the business or operations of the Company or its Subsidiaries. Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries shall be required pursuant to this Section 6.09(c) to enter into or perform under any certificate, agreement, document or other instrument that is not contingent upon the Closing or that would be effective prior to the Effective Time (other than the authorization letters and representation letters referred to in clause (iv) above). Notwithstanding the foregoing, under no circumstance shall the Company or its Subsidiaries be required to authorize (and Parent and none of Parent’s financing sources or any other lender to Parent is permitted to make), any pre-filing of any UCC-1’s or other documents which create Liens. None of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries shall be required to take any action pursuant to this Section 6.09(c) that would subject it to actual or potential liability for which it would not be indemnified hereunder or to bear any cost or expense or to pay any commitment or other similar fee or make any other payment (other than reasonable out-of-pocket costs) or provide or agree to provide any indemnity in connection with the Bridge Financing, Replacement Financing or any of the foregoing prior to the Effective Time. Parent shall, promptly upon request by the Company, reimburse the Company for all reasonable out-of-pocket costs incurred by the Company or its Subsidiaries in connection with this Section 6.09(c). Parent shall indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its Subsidiaries and their respective Representatives from and against any and all liabilities suffered or incurred by any of their officers, directors or employees in connection with the Bridge Financing or Replacement Financing, except to the extent such liabilities arose out of or resulted from (i) information provided by or on behalf of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or any of its or their respective Representatives or (ii) the gross negligence, fraud, bad faith, willful misconduct, intentional misrepresentation, or intentional breach of this Agreement by the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any of its or their respective Representatives. The Company hereby consents to the use of its and its Subsidiaries’ logos in connection with the Bridge Financing or Replacement Financing, provided that such logos shall be used solely in a manner that is not intended or reasonably likely to harm, disparage or otherwise adversely affect the Company or any of its Subsidiaries.

64

(d)        Parent and Merger Sub acknowledge and agree that the obtaining of the Bridge Financing or Replacement Financing is not a condition to the Closing. For the avoidance of doubt, if the Bridge Financing or Replacement Financing has not been obtained, Parent will continue to be obligated, subject to the fulfillment or waiver of the conditions set forth in ARTICLE VII, to complete the Merger and consummate the other Transactions.

(e)        If requested by Parent, the Company shall provide reasonable cooperation to Parent and Merger Sub in arranging for, at the Closing, the termination or redemption of (i) the indebtedness of the Company set forth on Section 6.09(e) of the Company Disclosure Schedule and (ii) any other indebtedness of the Company and its Subsidiaries, together with the procurement of customary payoff letters in connection therewith; provided that in no event shall this Section 6.09(e) require the Company to cause any indebtedness of the Company and its Subsidiaries to be terminated unless (i) the Company has received from Parent funds to pay in full the payoff amount for any such indebtedness and (ii) Parent has agreed to and has provided backstop letters of credit or cash collateralized any existing letters of credit and guarantees and hedging arrangements and other bank products thereunder in a manner reasonably satisfactory to the lenders or holders of such indebtedness, to the extent applicable.

Section 6.10.      Further Action; Efforts.

Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, prior to the Effective Time, each of the Company, Parent and Merger Sub shall, as promptly as practicable, use its reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all other actions and do, or cause to be done, all other things necessary, proper or advisable under applicable Law to consummate the Transactions.

65

(c)        In furtherance and not in limitation of the covenants of the Parties contained in Section 6.10(a) and Section 6.10(b), if any objections are asserted with respect to the Transactions under any Antitrust Law or if any suit is instituted (or threatened to be instituted) by the FTC, the DOJ or any other applicable Governmental Authority or any private party challenging any of the Transactions as violative of any Antitrust Law or which would otherwise prevent, materially impede or materially delay the consummation of the Transactions, each of Parent, Merger Sub and the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to resolve any such objections or suits so as to permit consummation of the Transactions, including in order to resolve such objections or suits which, in any case if not resolved, could reasonably be expected to prevent, materially impede or materially delay the consummation of the Transactions.

(d)        In the event that any administrative or judicial action or proceeding is instituted (or threatened to be instituted) by a Governmental Authority or private party challenging the Merger or any other Transaction, each of Parent, Merger Sub and the Company shall cooperate in all respects with each other and use its respective reasonable best efforts to vigorously contest and resist any such action or proceeding and to have vacated, lifted, reversed or overturned any decree, judgment, injunction or other Order, whether temporary, preliminary or permanent, that is in effect and that prohibits, prevents or restricts consummation of the Transactions; provided, however, that no Party shall make any offer, acceptance or counter-offer to, or otherwise engage in discussions with, any Governmental Authority with respect to any proposed settlement, consent decree, commitment or remedy, or, in the event of litigation, discovery, admissibility of evidence, timing or scheduling, except as specifically requested or agreed to by the other Parties, which agreement shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned. Each Party shall use its reasonable best efforts to provide full and effective support the other Parties in all material respects in all such negotiations and discussions to the extent reasonably requested by any such other Party.

(e)        Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision of this Agreement, (i) nothing in this Section 6.10 shall limit a Party’s right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.01 and (ii) nothing in this Agreement shall obligate Parent, Merger Sub or any of their respective Affiliates to agree to (A) sell, hold separate or otherwise dispose of all or a portion of its respective business, assets or properties, or conduct its business in a specified manner, (B) pay any amounts (other than the payment of filing fees and expenses and fees of counsel), or grant any counterparty to any Contract any material accommodation, (C) commence or defend any Action or claim in respect of any threatened Action, (D) limit in any manner whatsoever the ability of such entities to conduct, own, operate or control any of their respective businesses, assets or properties or of the businesses, properties or assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries or (E) waive any of the conditions set forth in ARTICLE VII of this Agreement. Without the prior written consent of Parent, none of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries shall, in response to any objections asserted with respect to the Transactions under any Antitrust Law or any suit instituted (or threatened to be instituted) by the FTC, the DOJ or any other applicable Governmental Authority or any private party challenging any of the Transactions as violative of any Antitrust Law, (A) sell, hold separate or otherwise dispose of all or a portion of their respective businesses, assets or properties, or conduct their business in a specified manner, (B) pay any amounts (other than the payment of filing fees and expenses and fees of counsel), or grant any counterparty to any Contract any material accommodation, (C) commence or defend any Action or claim in respect of any threatened Action or (D) limit in any manner whatsoever the ability of such entities to conduct, own, operate or control any of their respective businesses, assets or properties.

Section 8.02.     Effect of Termination.  In the event of the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.01, this Agreement shall forthwith become void, and there shall be no liability under this Agreement on the part of any Party except that the provisions of the last sentence of Section 6.05(b), Section 6.09(c), this Section 8.02, Section 8.03 and ARTICLE IX shall survive any such termination; provided, however, that nothing herein shall relieve any Party from liability for any intentional breach of any of its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements set forth in this Agreement prior to such termination.

Section 8.03.      Fees and Expenses.

(a)        Except as otherwise set forth in this Section 8.03, all fees and expenses incurred in connection with the Transactions, including all legal, accounting, financial advisory, consulting and all other fees and expenses of third parties incurred by a Party in connection with the negotiation and effectuation of the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Transactions, shall be the obligation of the respective Party incurring such fees and expenses, whether or not the Merger is consummated (it being agreed that the Company and Parent shall each bear and pay one half of (i) the expenses incurred in connection with the filing and printing of the Form S-4 and Proxy Statement included therein and for mailing it to Company Stockholders, and (ii) all required filing fees under the HSR Act).

(b)        In the event this Agreement shall be terminated:

71

the Termination Fee upon the earlier to occur of the Company’s entering into an Alternative Acquisition Agreement or the consummation of such Acquisition Proposal. For purposes of this Section 8.03(b)(ii), “Acquisition Proposal” shall have the meaning assigned thereto in Section 1.01 except that references in the definition to “15%” and “85%” shall be replaced by “50%.”

(c)        In the event this Agreement shall be terminated by Parent or the Company pursuant to Section 8.01(e) after a Bona Fide Proposal shall have been made, the Company shall promptly pay to Parent all documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by Parent and Merger Sub in connection with this Agreement and the Transactions up to a maximum amount equal to $4,000,000 (the “Expense Reimbursement”); provided that in the event the Expense Reimbursement is paid and a Termination Fee is thereafter payable pursuant to Section 8.03(b)(ii), the Termination Fee otherwise payable shall be reduced by the amount of the Expense Reimbursement.

(d)        In the event this Agreement shall be terminated by Parent or the Company pursuant to Section 8.01(b) (but for purposes of Section 8.01(b) only if one or more of the Regulatory Conditions has not been satisfied prior to the date of termination) or Section 8.01(c) (but for purposes of Section 8.01(c) only if such illegality or prohibition is attributable to an Antitrust Law or Exon-Florio or otherwise seeking approval under an Antitrust Law or CFIUS Approval) and all of the conditions to Closing set forth in ARTICLE VII (other than (i) the conditions set forth in Section 7.01(b), Section 7.01(c) (but for purposes of Section 7.01(c) only if such restraint or prohibition is attributable to an Antitrust Law or Exon-Florio or otherwise seeking approval under an Antitrust Law or CFIUS Approval) or Section 7.01(d) and (ii) those other conditions that, by their nature, cannot be satisfied until the Closing Date, but, in the case of clause (ii), which conditions could be satisfied if the Closing Date were the date of such termination) have been satisfied or waived on or prior to the date of such termination, then Parent shall pay to the Company the Reverse Breakup Fee. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contemplated in this Agreement, in the event the Closing does not occur and the Company has the right to receive the Reverse Breakup Fee pursuant to this Section 8.03(d), such Reverse Breakup Fee, together with applicable costs of collection, if any, payable pursuant to Section 8.03(e) shall be the exclusive remedies of the Company against Parent and Merger Sub for any loss, cost, liability or expense relating to or arising under this Agreement or the Transactions, including the failure of Parent and Merger Sub to consummate the Merger; provided, however, that nothing in this Section 8.03(d) shall relieve Parent or Merger Sub from any liability for, or eliminate or preclude any remedies of the Company against Parent or Merger Sub in respect of, any intentional breach of this Agreement by Parent or Merger Sub prior to the termination of this Agreement.

(e)        The Company, Parent and Merger Sub each acknowledge that the agreements contained in this Section 8.03 are an integral part of the Agreement and the Transactions and that, without these agreements, the other Parties would not enter into this Agreement. Except with respect to Section 8.01(h) (in which case the Termination Fee shall be paid by the Company in accordance with Section 6.06(d)) or in the case where the Termination Fee is payable pursuant to Section 8.03(b)(ii) (in which case the Termination Fee shall be paid by the Company in accordance with Section 8.03(b)(ii)), the Termination Fee, Expense Reimbursement or Reverse Breakup Fee, as applicable, shall be paid by Parent or the Company, as applicable, as directed by Parent or the Company in writing in immediately available funds promptly following (and in any event within two Business Days after) the date of the event giving rise to the obligation to make such payment. In the event that the Company or Parent, as applicable, shall fail to pay the Termination Fee, Expense Reimbursement or Reverse Breakup Fee required pursuant to this Section 8.03 when due, such Termination Fee, Expense Reimbursement or Reverse Breakup Fee, as the case may be, shall accrue interest for the period commencing on the date such Termination Fee, Expense Reimbursement or Reverse Breakup Fee, as the case may be, became past due, at the rate of interest per annum equal to the “Prime Rate” as set forth on the date such payment became past due in The Wall Street Journal “Money Rates” column plus 350 basis points. In addition, if a Party shall fail to pay any Termination Fee, Expense Reimbursement or Reverse Breakup Fee, as the case may be, when due, such Party shall also pay to the Party entitled to such Termination Fee, Expense Reimbursement or Reverse Breakup Fee, as applicable, such non-paying Party’s costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred in connection with efforts to collect such Termination Fee, Expense Reimbursement or Reverse Breakup Fee, as the case may be.

72

For the avoidance of doubt and notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, in no event will a Party be obligated to pay a Termination Fee, Expense Reimbursement or Reverse Breakup Fee, as the case may be, on more than one occasion.

(f)        Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Company, its Subsidiaries and the Representatives and Affiliates of the Company and its Subsidiaries shall not have any rights or claims against any Parent financing source (including, without limitation, the parties to the Commitment Letter) in connection with the Transactions, including the Bridge Financing or any Replacement Financing, whether at law or equity, in contract, in tort or otherwise.

Section 8.04.      Amendment.  This Agreement may be amended by the Parties hereto by action taken by their respective boards of directors (or similar governing bodies or entities) at any time prior to the Effective Time; provided, however, that, after Company Stockholder Approval has been obtained, no amendment may be made without further stockholder approval which, by Law or in accordance with the rules of NASDAQ, requires further approval by such stockholders. This Agreement may not be amended except by an instrument in writing signed by the Parties. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the provisions of Section 6.05(a), Section 6.05(b), Section 6.09, Section 8.03(f), this Section 8.04, Section 9.06, Section 9.07 and Section 9.08, to the extent affecting any of the Parent’s financing sources, may not be amended, modified or waived (including any defined term used therein) without the prior written consent of each of Parent’s financing sources participating in Replacement Financing or, to the extent Parent or an Affiliate of Parent has not consummated Replacement Financing, the Bridge Financing, as applicable.

Section 8.05.      Waiver.  At any time prior to the Effective Time, the Company, on the one hand, and Parent and Merger Sub, on the other hand, may (a) extend the time for the performance of any obligation or other act of the other, (b) waive any inaccuracy in the representations and warranties of the other contained herein or in any document delivered pursuant hereto and (c) waive compliance with any agreement of the other or any condition to its own obligations contained herein. Any such extension or waiver shall be valid if set forth in an instrument in writing signed by the Company or Parent (on behalf of Parent and Merger Sub). The waiver by any Party of a breach of any provision hereunder shall not operate or be construed as a waiver of any prior or subsequent breach of the same or any other provision hereunder. The failure of any Party to assert any of its rights under this Agreement or otherwise shall not constitute a waiver of those rights.

ARTICLE IX

GENERAL PROVISIONS

Section 9.01.      Non-Survival of Representations and Warranties.  The representations and warranties in this Agreement and in any certificate delivered pursuant hereto shall terminate at the Effective Time.

Section 9.02.      Notices.  All notices, requests, claims, demands and other communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be given (and shall be deemed to have been duly given upon receipt) by delivery in person, by prepaid overnight courier (providing proof of delivery), by facsimile, by email or by registered or certified mail (postage prepaid, return receipt requested) to the respective parties at the following addresses,

73

facsimile numbers or email addresses (or at such other address for a Party as shall be specified in a notice given in accordance with this Section 9.02):

Section 9.03.      Severability.  If any term or other provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any rule of Law or public policy or the application of this Agreement to any Person or circumstance is invalid or incapable of being enforced by any rule of Law or public policy, all other conditions and provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect so long as the economic or legal substance of the Transactions is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any Party. To such end, the provisions of this Agreement are agreed to be severable. 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 Transactions be consummated as originally contemplated to the fullest extent possible.

74

Section 9.04.      Entire Agreement; Assignment.  This Agreement, together with the Confidentiality Agreement, the Company Disclosure Schedule and the Parent Disclosure Schedule, constitute the entire agreement among the Parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement, and supersede all prior agreements and undertakings, both written and oral, among the Parties, or any of them, with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the forgoing, the Company acknowledges and agrees that, upon execution of this Agreement, each of Parent’s potential financing sources shall be considered a Representative (as defined in the Confidentiality Agreement) of Parent for all purposes under the Confidentiality Agreement. This Agreement shall not be assigned, whether pursuant to a merger, by operation of law or otherwise; provided that Merger Sub may assign, in its sole discretion, any or all of its rights, interests and obligations under this Agreement to any wholly owned subsidiary of Parent without the consent of the Company.

Section 9.05.      Specific Performance.  The Parties agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event any provision of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and that money damages would not be a sufficient remedy for any breach of this Agreement, and accordingly, the Parties shall be entitled to specific performance of the terms of this Agreement, without any requirement to post bond, in addition to any other remedy at law or equity. The Parties further agree not to assert that a remedy of specific enforcement is unenforceable, invalid, contrary to law or inequitable for any reason, nor to assert that a remedy of monetary damages would provide an adequate remedy.

Section 9.06.      Parties in Interest.  This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure solely to the benefit of each Party, and nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to or shall confer upon any other Person any right, benefit or remedy of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of this Agreement, other than the provisions of Section 6.08 and Section 6.09(c) (which are intended to be for the benefit of the Persons covered thereby or the Persons entitled to payment thereunder and may be enforced by such Persons). Notwithstanding the foregoing, Parent’s financing sources are intended third party beneficiaries under the provisions of Section 6.05(a), Section 6.05(b), Section 6.09, Section 8.03(f), Section 8.04, Section 9.04, this Section 9.06, Section 9.07 and Section 9.08.

Section 9.07.      Governing Law; Forum.

(b)        All Actions arising out of or relating to this Agreement shall be heard and determined in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware (or, only if the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware declines to accept jurisdiction over a particular matter, any federal court within the State of Delaware). The Parties hereby (i) submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware (or, only if the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware declines to accept jurisdiction over a particular matter, any federal court within the State of Delaware) for the purpose of any Action arising out of or relating to this Agreement brought by any Party and (ii) irrevocably waive, and agree not to assert by way of motion, defense, or otherwise, in any such Action, any claim that it is not subject personally to the jurisdiction of the above-named courts, that its property is exempt or immune from attachment or execution, that any such Action is brought in an inconvenient forum, that the venue of such Action is improper, or that this Agreement or the Transactions may not be enforced in or by any of the above-named courts. Each of the Parties agrees that mailing of process or other papers in connection with any action or proceeding in the manner provided in Section 9.02 or such other manner as may be permitted by Law shall be valid and sufficient service of process.

(c)        Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, each of the Parties agrees that it will not bring or support, nor will it permit any of its Affiliates to bring or support, any action, cause of action, claim, cross-claim or third-party claim of any kind or description, whether in law or in equity, whether in contract or in tort or otherwise, against Parent’s financing sources in any way relating to this Agreement or any

75

of the Transactions, including any dispute arising out of or relating in any way to the Commitment Letter or the performance thereof, in any forum other than the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York, or, if under applicable Law exclusive jurisdiction is vested in the federal courts, the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York (and appellate courts thereof). The Parties further agree that all of the provisions of Section 9.08 relating to waiver of jury trial shall apply to any action, cause of action, claim, cross-claim or third-party claim reference in this Section 9.07(c). The provisions of this Section 9.07(c) shall be enforceable by each of Parent’s financing sources and their respective Affiliates, successors and permitted assigns.

Section 9.08.      Waiver of Jury Trial.  EACH OF THE PARTIES HEREBY WAIVES TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY WITH RESPECT TO ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS. Each of the Parties (a) certifies that 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 that foregoing waiver and (b) acknowledges that it and the other Parties have been induced to enter into this Agreement and the Transactions, as applicable, by, among other things, the mutual waivers and certifications in this Section 9.08.

Section 9.09.      Counterparts.  This Agreement may be executed and delivered (including by facsimile or other form of electronic transmission) in two or more counterparts, and by the different Parties in separate counterparts, each of which when executed shall be deemed to be an original but all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement.
