(c) Subject to the provisions of Article VII and Article VIII hereof, the closing of the transactions contemplated hereby (the “Closing”) shall take place by electronic communication at such time and place as the Company and Parent mutually agree at the earliest practicable time after the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions in Article VII (other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied by actions taken at the Closing, but subject to the satisfaction or waiver of such conditions), but in no event later than ten (10) Business Days after all such conditions have been satisfied or waived, or on such other date as may be mutually agreed upon by the parties hereto (the “Closing Date”). On the Closing Date or as soon thereafter as practicable to effect the Merger, the parties hereto will cause the Certificate of Merger to be filed with the Delaware Secretary of State in accordance with the DGCL. The Merger shall be effective when the filing of the Certificate of Merger is accepted by the Delaware Secretary of State (the “Effective Time”). As used herein, the term “Effective Date” shall mean the date on which the Effective Time occurs.

2.3 Effect on Company Capital Stock and Merger Sub Capital Stock.

(a) To effectuate the Merger, and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, at the Effective Time:

(i) Each share of Company Capital Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than shares cancelled and extinguished pursuant to this Section and Dissenting Shares) shall automatically be converted into and exchangeable for that number of fully paid and nonassessable shares of Parent Common Stock equal to the number of shares of Company Capital Stock multiplied by the Exchange Ratio, such that the post-Merger capital structure of Parent shall be as set forth in Exhibit B hereto (for the avoidance of doubt, each share of Company Common Stock, Company Series A Preferred Stock and Company Series B Preferred Stock shall be converted and exchanged under this Section 2.3(a)(i) in accordance with the terms of the Company’s certificate of incorporation);

(ii) All shares of Company Capital Stock held immediately prior to the Effective Time by the Company as treasury stock or otherwise, if any, will be cancelled and extinguished and no payment will be made with respect to those shares; and

(iii) Each share of Merger Sub Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time will be converted into and become one validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable share of common stock of the Surviving Company, which shall represent all of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of the Surviving Company immediately following the Effective Time.

(b) No fraction of a share of Parent Common Stock will be issued pursuant to Section , but in lieu thereof each holder of shares of Company Capital Stock who would otherwise be entitled to a fraction of a share of Parent Common Stock (after aggregating all fractional shares of Parent Common Stock to be received by such holder) shall receive from Parent one full share of Parent Common Stock (i.e., rounded up to the nearest whole share).

2.4 Rights of Holders of Certificates Evidencing Company Capital Stock. On and after the Effective Time and until surrendered for exchange, each outstanding stock certificate that immediately prior to the Effective Time represented shares of Company Capital Stock (except Dissenting Shares) shall be deemed for all purposes, to evidence ownership of and to represent the number of whole shares of Parent Common Stock into which such shares of Company Capital Stock shall have been converted pursuant to Section . The record holder of each such outstanding certificate representing shares of Company Capital Stock, shall, after the Effective Time, be entitled to vote the shares of Parent Common Stock into which such shares of Company Capital Stock shall have been converted on any matters on which the registered holders of Parent Common Stock, as of any date subsequent to the Effective Time, shall be entitled to vote. In any matters relating to such certificates of Company Capital Stock, Parent may rely conclusively upon the record of stockholders maintained by the Company containing the names and addresses of the holders of record of Company Capital Stock at the Effective Time.

2.5 Procedure for Exchange of Company Capital Stock.

(a) After the Effective Time, holders of certificates theretofore evidencing outstanding shares of Company Capital Stock (except Dissenting Shares), upon surrender of such certificates to the corporate secretary of Parent and execution of a customary letter of transmittal prepared by Parent, shall be entitled to receive certificates representing the number of shares of Parent Common Stock into which shares of Company Capital Stock theretofore represented by the certificates so surrendered are exchangeable as provided in Section hereof. Parent shall not be obligated to deliver any such shares of Parent Common Stock to which any former holder of shares of Company Capital Stock is entitled until such holder surrenders the certificate or certificates representing such shares. Upon surrender, each certificate evidencing Company Capital Stock shall be cancelled. If there is a transfer of Company Capital Stock ownership that is not registered in the transfer records of the Company, a certificate representing the proper number of shares of Parent Common Stock may be issued to a Person other than the Person in whose name the certificate so surrendered is registered if: (i) upon presentation to the corporate secretary of Parent, such certificate shall be properly endorsed or otherwise be in proper form for transfer, (ii) the Person requesting such payment shall pay any transfer or other Taxes required by reason of the issuance of shares of Parent Common Stock to a Person other than the registered holder of such certificate or establish to the reasonable satisfaction of Parent that such Tax has been paid or is not applicable, and (iii) the issuance of such Parent Common Stock shall not, in the sole discretion of Parent, violate the requirements of the Regulation D “safe harbor” of the Securities Act with respect to the Private Placement.

(b) All shares of Parent Common Stock issued upon the surrender for exchange of Company Capital Stock, in accordance with the above terms and conditions shall be deemed to have been issued and paid in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to such shares of Company Capital Stock.

(c) Any shares of Parent Common Stock issued in the Merger will not be transferable except (i) pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act or (ii) upon receipt by Parent of a written opinion of counsel for the holder reasonably satisfactory to Parent to the effect that the proposed transfer is exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws. Restrictive legends shall be placed on all certificates representing shares of Parent Common Stock, issued in the Merger, unless issued pursuant to an effective registration statement, substantially as follows:

NO TRANSFER, SALE, ASSIGNMENT, PLEDGE, HYPOTHECATION OR OTHER DISPOSITION OF THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE MAY BE MADE EXCEPT (A) PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, AND THE RULES AND REGULATIONS IN EFFECT THEREUNDER AND ALL APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES OR “BLUE SKY” LAWS (SUCH FEDERAL AND STATE LAWS, THE “SECURITIES LAWS”) OR (B) IF THE CORPORATION HAS BEEN FURNISHED WITH AN OPINION OF COUNSEL FOR THE HOLDER, WHICH OPINION AND COUNSEL SHALL BE REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE CORPORATION, TO THE EFFECT THAT SUCH TRANSFER, SALE, ASSIGNMENT, PLEDGE, HYPOTHECATION OR OTHER DISPOSITION IS EXEMPT FROM THE PROVISIONS OF THE SECURITIES LAWS.

(d) In the event any certificate for Company Capital Stock shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, Parent shall issue in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed certificate, promptly following its receipt of an affidavit of that fact by the holder thereof, such shares of the Parent Common Stock, as may be required pursuant to this Agreement; provided, however, that Parent, in its discretion and as a condition precedent to the issuance thereof, may require the owner of such lost, stolen or destroyed certificate to deliver a bond in such sum as it may direct as indemnity against any claim that may be made against Parent or any other party with respect to the certificate alleged to have been lost, stolen or destroyed.

2.6 Dissenting Shares. Shares of Company Capital Stock held by stockholders of the Company who have not voted in favor of the adoption of this Agreement or consented thereto in writing and who have properly exercised and preserved appraisal rights with respect to those shares in accordance with Section 262 of the DGCL (“Dissenting Shares”) shall not be converted into or represent a right to receive shares of Parent Common Stock, pursuant to Section 2.3 above, but the holders thereof shall be entitled only to such rights as are granted by Section 262 of the DGCL. Each holder of Dissenting Shares who becomes entitled to payment for such shares pursuant to Section 262 of the DGCL shall receive payment therefor from the Surviving Company in accordance with such laws; provided, however, that if any such holder of Dissenting Shares shall have effectively withdrawn such holder’s demand for appraisal of such shares or failed to perfect or lost such holder’s right to appraisal and payment of such shares under Section 262 of the DGCL, such holder or holders (as the case may be) shall forfeit the right to appraisal of such shares and each such share shall thereupon be deemed to have been cancelled, extinguished and exchanged, as of the Effective Time, into and represent the right to receive from Parent shares of Parent Common Stock, as provided in Section 2.3 above. The Company shall provide Parent with (a) prompt written notice of any demands received by the Company for appraisal of shares of Company Capital Stock, any withdrawal of any such demand and any other demand, notice or instrument delivered to the Company prior to the Effective Time pursuant to the DGCL that relates to such demand, and (b) the opportunity to participate in all negotiations and proceedings with respect to such demands. Except with the prior written consent of Parent, the Company shall not make any payment with respect to, or settle or offer to settle, any such demands. Any payments in respect of Dissenting Shares will be deemed made by the Surviving Company, and no funds or other property will be provided by Merger Sub.

2.7 Directors and Officers of the Surviving Company. From and after the Effective Time, the directors and officers of the Surviving Company shall be the persons who were directors and officers of the Company immediately prior to the Effective Time, respectively. These directors and officers of the Surviving Company shall hold office for the term specified in, and subject to the provisions contained in, the certificate of incorporation and bylaws of the Surviving Company and applicable law.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 6.8(a), if at any time following the date of this Agreement and prior to obtaining the Requisite Parent Shareholder Vote, (i) Parent has not knowingly breached any material provision of Section 6.8 and Parent has received a written Alternative Proposal from a third party which did not result from a breach of Section 6.8(a) and (ii) the Board of Directors of Parent determines in good faith, after consultation with its outside counsel, that such Alternative Proposal constitutes or could reasonably be expected to lead to a Superior Proposal, then Parent may (A) furnish information with respect to Parent and its Subsidiaries to the Person making such Alternative Proposal and (B) participate in discussions or negotiations with the Person making such Alternative Proposal regarding such Alternative Proposal; provided, that Parent will not, and will use reasonable best efforts not to allow Parent Representatives to, disclose any non-public information to such Person without entering into a confidentiality agreement on terms which are consistent with the confidentiality agreement between Parent and the Company effective as of October 2, 2013.

In order for the Board of Directors of Parent to make the determination that an Alternative Proposal constitutes a Superior Proposal, Parent shall be required to provide the Company with prior written notice, at least 48 hours in advance (or, in the event of a material modification of an Alternative Proposal with respect to which prior written notice of such intention to determine has previously been provided, the period shall be 24 hours in advance) of its intention to determine that such Alternative Proposal constitutes a Superior Proposal.

(ii) “Superior Proposal” shall mean any Alternative Proposal (except the references therein to “20%” shall be replaced by “50%”) on terms which the Board of Directors of Parent determines in good faith, after consultation with Parent’s outside legal counsel, to be more favorable to the shareholders of Parent than the transactions contemplated hereby or the terms of any other proposal made by the Company after the Company’s receipt of such Alternative Proposal.

(i) the Company shall have breached or failed to perform any of its representations, warranties, covenants or other agreements contained in this Agreement, which breach or failure to perform (i) would result in a failure of a condition set forth in Sections 7.1 or 7.2, and (ii) cannot be cured by the End Date, provided that Parent shall have given the Company written notice, delivered at least thirty (30) days prior to such termination, stating Parent’s intention to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 8.1(c)(i) and the basis for such termination; or

(ii) prior to the receipt of the Requisite Parent Shareholder Approval, Parent shall have received an Alternative Proposal and the Board of Directors of Parent shall have determined in good faith that such Alternative Proposal constitutes a Superior Proposal; provided, however, that Parent shall not terminate this Agreement pursuant to this clause (ii) unless: (A) in connection with a Superior Proposal determination made after the date of this Agreement, Parent shall have provided prior written notice to the Company of the intention of the Board of Directors of Parent to determine that the Alternative Proposal constitutes a Superior Proposal at least three (3) Business Days in advance of such termination (or, in the event of a material modification of an Alternative Proposal with respect to which prior written notice of such intention has previously been provided, the advance notice period shall be one Business Day), and prior to transmitting notification to the Company of the termination of this Agreement pursuant to this clause (ii) the Board of Directors of Parent has not concluded that the Alternative Proposal is no longer a Superior Proposal; (B) Parent concurrently with transmitting notification to the Company of the termination of this Agreement pursuant to this clause (ii) pays the Termination Fee payable pursuant to Section 8.2(a); and (C) the Board of Directors of Parent concurrently with transmitting notification to the Company of the termination of this Agreement pursuant to this clause (ii) approves, and Parent substantially concurrently enters into, a definitive agreement with respect to such Superior Proposal.

(d) by the Company, if:

(i) Parent shall have breached or failed to perform any of its representations, warranties, covenants or other agreements contained in this Agreement, which breach or failure to perform (i) would result in a failure of a condition set forth in Section 7.1 or 7.3 to be satisfied and (ii) cannot be cured by the End Date, provided that the Company shall have given Parent written notice, delivered at least thirty (30) days prior to such termination, stating the Company’s intention to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 8.1(d)(i) and the basis for such termination; or

(ii) the Board of Directors of Parent shall have effected a Recommendation Withdrawal.

In the event of termination of this Agreement pursuant to this Section 8.1, this Agreement shall terminate (except for the confidentiality obligations under Section 6.3 and the provisions of Section 8.2 and Article IX), and there shall be no other liability on the part of Parent or the Company except liability arising out of the provisions of Section 8.2 and 8.3, respectively, or any willful and material breach of any of the representations, warranties or covenants in this Agreement by Parent or the Company (subject to any express limitations set forth in this Agreement). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, (X) entry by Parent into a definitive agreement with respect to a Superior Proposal in accordance with clause (C) of Section 8.1(c)(ii) hereof shall not be deemed a breach of Section 6.8 of this Agreement, and (Y) the last sentence of Section 3.4 shall be read without the Knowledge qualification therein for purposes of determining whether such representation has been breached.

8.2 Termination Fees.

(a) In the event that:

(i) (A) after the date hereof, a bona fide Alternative Proposal shall have been made known to Parent or shall have been made directly to its shareholders generally or any person shall have publicly announced a bona fide intention (not subsequently withdrawn) to make an Alternative Proposal and (B) following the occurrence of an event described in the preceding clause (A), this Agreement is terminated by Parent or the Company pursuant to Section 8.1(b)(iii) (so long as the Alternative Proposal was publicly disclosed prior to, and had not been withdrawn at, the time of the Parent Shareholder Meeting) or Section 8.1(d)(i), and (C) Parent consummates a transaction with respect to an Alternative Proposal within six (6) months of the date this Agreement is terminated or enters into a definitive agreement with respect to any Alternative Proposal within six (6) months of the date this Agreement is terminated and consummates a transaction with respect to such Alternative Proposal (provided that for purposes of this Section 8.2(a)(i), the references to “20%” in the definition of Alternative Proposal shall be deemed to be references to “50%”); or

(ii) this Agreement is terminated by Parent pursuant to Section 8.1(c)(ii); or

(iii) this Agreement is terminated by the Company pursuant to Section 8.1(d)(ii);

then in any such event under clause (i), (ii) or (iii) of this Section 8.2(a), Parent shall pay to the Company the Termination Fee, it being understood that in no event shall Parent be required to pay the Termination Fee on more than one occasion.

(b) Any payment required to be made pursuant to clause (i) of Section 8.2(a) shall be made to the Company promptly following the consummation of the transaction referred to therein (and in any event not later than two (2) Business Days after delivery to Parent of notice of demand for payment); any payment required to be made pursuant to clause (ii) of Section 8.2(a) shall be made to the Company concurrently with the termination of this Agreement by Parent pursuant to Section 8.1(c)(ii); any payment required to be made pursuant to clause (iii) of Section 8.2(a) shall be made to the Company promptly following termination of this Agreement by the Company pursuant to Section 8.1(d)(ii) (and in any event not later than two (2) Business Days after delivery to Parent of notice of demand for payment), and such payment shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account to be designated by the Company.

8.3 Expenses following Termination. Upon a termination occurring pursuant to Section , each party hereto shall be responsible for and pay its own fees and expenses, including the fees of any professional service providers incurred in connection with the Subject Transactions; provided, however, that if this Agreement is terminated by Parent pursuant to 8.1(c)(i), the Company shall pay to Parent the Parent Professional Fees within two (2) Business Days of the date Parent furnishes to the Company a schedule setting forth in reasonable detail the fees, costs and expenses comprising the Parent Professional Fees, and such payment shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account to be designated by Parent; provided, however, that solely for purposes of this Section 8.3, the Company shall only be required to pay a maximum of $400,000 of such Parent Professional Fees.

8.4 Failure to Pay. In the event that Parent or the Company shall fail to pay the Termination Fee or the Parent Professional Fees required pursuant to Section 8.2 and 8.3, respectively, when due, such fees shall accrue interest for the period commencing on the date such fees became past due, at a rate equal to the rate of interest publicly announced by JPMorgan Chase Bank, National Association, in the City of New York from time to time during such period, as such bank’s prime lending rate. In addition, if Parent or the Company shall fail to pay such fees when due, such party shall also pay to the other all of the other’s reasonable costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) in connection with efforts to collect such fees. Each party acknowledges that the fees and the other provisions of Sections 8.2, 8.3 and 8.4 are an integral part of the Merger and that, without these agreements, neither party would enter into this Agreement. Each of the parties hereto acknowledges that the agreements contained in Sections 8.2, 8.3 and 8.4 are an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and that neither the Termination Fee nor the Parent Professional Fees are penalties, but rather liquidated damages in a reasonable amount that will compensate the receiving party for the efforts and resources expended and opportunities foregone while negotiating this Agreement and in reliance on this Agreement and on the expectation of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, which amount would otherwise be impossible to calculate with precision.

9.10 Enforcement; Jurisdiction; Service of Process.

(a) The parties agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached, and that money damages or other legal remedies would not be an adequate remedy for any such damages. It is accordingly agreed that prior to the termination of this Agreement in accordance with Article VIII, in the event of any breach or threatened breach by the Company, on the one hand, or Parent and Merger Sub, on the other hand, of any of their respective covenants or obligations set forth in this Agreement, the Company, on the one hand, and Parent and Merger Sub, on the other hand, shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent or restrain breaches or threatened breaches of this Agreement by the other (as applicable), and to specifically enforce the terms and provisions of this Agreement to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of, or to enforce compliance with, the covenants and obligations of the other under this Agreement. Each party hereby agrees not to raise any objections to the availability of the equitable remedy of specific performance to prevent or restrain breaches or threatened breaches of this Agreement by such party, and to specifically enforce the terms and provisions of this Agreement to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of, or to enforce compliance with, the covenants and obligations of such party under this Agreement. Any party seeking an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement shall not be required to provide any bond or other security in connection with any such order or injunction. The parties hereto further agree that (x) by seeking the remedies provided for in this Section 9.10(a), a party shall not in any respect waive its right to seek any other form of relief that may be available to a party under this Agreement in the event that the remedies provided for in this Section 9.10(a) are not available or otherwise are not granted, and (y) nothing set forth in this Section 9.10(a) shall require any party hereto to institute any proceeding for (or limit any party’s right to institute any proceeding for) specific performance under this Section 9.10(a) prior or as a condition to exercising any termination right under Article VIII, nor shall the commencement of any legal action or legal proceeding pursuant to this Section 9.10(a) or anything set forth in this Section 9.10(a) restrict or limit any party’s right to terminate this Agreement in accordance with the terms of Article VIII, or pursue any other remedies under this Agreement that may be available then or thereafter.

(b) Any action or proceeding seeking to enforce any provision of, or based on any right arising out of, this Agreement must, to the extent such courts will accept such jurisdiction, be brought against any of the parties in the courts of the State of Delaware, or, if it has or can acquire jurisdiction, in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware, and each of the parties consents to the jurisdiction of those courts (and of the appropriate appellate courts) in any such action or proceeding and waives any objection to venue laid therein. Process in any such action or proceeding may be served by sending or delivering a copy of the process to the party to be served at the address and in the manner provided for the giving of notices in Section . Nothing in this Section , however, affects the right of any party to serve legal process in any other manner permitted by law.

9.11 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING BETWEEN THE PARTIES HERETO ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

9.12 Disclosure in Schedules. For purposes of this Agreement, with respect to any matter that is clearly disclosed on any Schedule hereto with respect to any Section hereof in such a way as to make its relevance to the information called for by another Section hereof or any other Schedule, as the case may be, reasonably apparent, such matter shall be deemed to have been disclosed in response to such other Section or Schedule, notwithstanding the omission of any appropriate cross-reference thereto; provided, however, that each of Parent and the Company hereby covenants to make a good faith diligent effort to make all appropriate cross-references within and to any and all Sections of this Agreement and Schedules hereto.
