This Agreement and Plan of Merger (this “Agreement”) is dated as of March 14, 2008, among Walgreen Co., an Illinois corporation (the “Buyer”), Putter Acquisition Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of the Buyer (“Acquisition Sub”), and I-trax, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”).

RECITALS

WHEREAS, the respective Boards of Directors of the Buyer, the Acquisition Sub and the Company have approved the acquisition of the Company on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement.

WHEREAS, in furtherance of such acquisition, the Acquisition Sub will (i) make a cash tender offer (as it may be amended from time to time as permitted under this Agreement, the “Common Offer”) to purchase all of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share of the Company (the “Company Common Stock”), at a price of $5.40 per share, net to the sellers in cash, without interest thereon (such amount, or any different amount per share that may be paid pursuant to the Offer in accordance with the terms hereof, being hereinafter referred to as the “Common Offer Price”) and (ii) make a cash tender offer (as it may be amended from time to time as permitted under this Agreement, the “Preferred Offer” and, together with the Common Offer, the “Offers”) to purchase all of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company’s Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share of the Company (the “Preferred Stock” and, together with the Company Common Stock, the “Shares”), at a price per share equal to $54.00 plus the Dividend Amount, net to the sellers in cash, without interest thereon (such amount, or any different amount per share of Preferred Stock that may be paid pursuant to the Preferred Offer in accordance with the terms hereof, being hereinafter referred to as the “Preferred Offer Price” and, together with the Common Offer Price, the “Offer Prices”), on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement.

WHEREAS, to effectuate the acquisition of the Company, following consummation of the Offers, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, the Acquisition Sub will be merged with and into the Company, with the Company continuing as the surviving corporation in such merger (the “Merger”).

WHEREAS, the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Company Board”) has (i) determined that the Offers, the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement are fair to, and in the best interest of, the Company and its stockholders; (ii) approved this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, including the Offers and the Merger, in accordance with the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the “DGCL”); (iii) declared the advisability of this Agreement; and (iv) resolved to recommend that the holders of the Shares tender their Shares in the Offers and adopt this Agreement.

WHEREAS, Buyer, Acquisition Sub and the Company desire to make certain representations, warranties, covenants and agreements in connection with the Offers and the Merger and to prescribe certain conditions to the Offers and the Merger.

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises, and the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements set forth in this Agreement, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, and intending to be legally bound, the Buyer, the Acquisition Sub and the Company agree as follows:

ARTICLE I

THE OFFERS AND THE MERGER

Section 1.1 The Offers.

(a) Commencement of the Offers. On the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, as promptly as practicable, but in any event within ten (10) Business Days after the date of this Agreement, the Buyer shall cause the Acquisition Sub to commence (within the meaning of Rule 14d-2 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (and including the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, the “Exchange Act”)) the Offers to purchase any and all outstanding Shares at a price per Share equal to the applicable Offer Price (as adjusted as provided in Section 1.1(e) hereof, if applicable).

(b) Expiration and Extension of the Offers; Subsequent Offering Period. The initial expiration date of the Offers shall be the twentieth (20^th) Business Day after commencement of the Offers (determined in accordance with Rule 14d-1(g)(3) under the Exchange Act) (such date, or such subsequent date to which the expiration of the Offers is extended pursuant to and in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the “Expiration Date”). Without the prior written consent of the Company, the Buyer and the Acquisition Sub shall not extend or otherwise change the Expiration Date except (i) as required by applicable Law (including for any period required by any rule, regulation, interpretation or position of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) or the staff thereof), (ii) that if, prior to the scheduled Expiration Date (as it may be extended), any condition to the Offers has not been satisfied or waived, the Buyer and the Acquisition Sub may, in their sole discretion, extend the Expiration Date for one or more periods not in excess of twenty (20) Business Days each (for this purpose calculated in accordance with Rule 14d-1(g)(3) promulgated under the Exchange Act)) but in no event beyond the Outside Date, (iii) in connection with an increase in the consideration to be paid pursuant to the Offers so as to comply with applicable rules and regulations of the SEC, or (iv) that the Buyer and the Acquisition Sub may, in their sole discretion, extend the Expiration Date for one or more periods of ten (10) Business Days each if there shall not have been tendered a number of shares that constitutes at least 90% of the outstanding shares of Company Common Stock or Preferred Stock, but in no event beyond the Outside Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Buyer and the Acquisition Sub may elect to, without the consent of the Company, and shall, if requested by the Company, provide a subsequent offering period for the Offers in accordance with Rule 14d-11 of the Exchange Act following their acceptance for payment of Shares in the Offers.

(c) Payment for Shares. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement and the Offers, the Acquisition Sub shall accept for payment and pay for all Shares validly tendered and not withdrawn pursuant to the Offers as promptly as practicable after the applicable Expiration Date and in any event in compliance with applicable statutes, common

laws, rules, ordinances, regulations, codes, licensing requirements, orders, judgments, injunctions, writs, decrees, licenses, governmental guidelines or interpretations having the force of law, permits, rules and bylaws, in each case, of a Governmental Authority (“Law”). The Offer Price payable in respect of each Share validly tendered and not withdrawn pursuant to the Offers or during any subsequent offering period contemplated by Section 1.1(b) hereof shall be paid net to the holder thereof in cash, subject to reduction only for any applicable federal back-up withholding or other Taxes payable by such holder. To the extent any such amounts are so deducted or withheld, such amounts shall be treated for all purposes under this Agreement as having been paid to the Person to whom such amounts would otherwise have been paid.

(d) Terms and Conditions of the Offers. The obligation of Acquisition Sub to accept for payment and to pay for any Shares tendered (and the obligation of the Buyer to cause Acquisition Sub to accept for payment and to pay for any Shares tendered) in the Offers and not withdrawn shall be subject only to the conditions set forth in Annex A hereto. The conditions to the Offers set forth in Annex A hereto are for the sole benefit of the Buyer and Acquisition Sub and may be waived by the Buyer and Acquisition Sub, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time, in their sole discretion, other than the Minimum Condition, which may be waived by the Buyer and Acquisition Sub only with the prior written consent of the Company. The Buyer and Acquisition Sub expressly reserve the right to increase an Offer Price or to waive or make any other changes in the terms and conditions of the Offers; provided, however, that unless otherwise provided in this Agreement or previously approved by the Company in writing, neither Buyer nor Acquisition Sub may make any change to the terms or conditions of the Offers that (A) decreases an Offer Price, (B) changes the form of consideration to be paid in the Offers, (C) reduces the number of Shares sought to be purchased in the Offers, or (D) imposes conditions to the Offers in addition to those set forth in Annex A hereto.

(e) Adjustments to Offer Prices. Each Offer Price shall be adjusted appropriately to reflect the effect of any stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend (including any dividend or distribution of securities convertible into Company Common Stock), cash dividend, reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification, combination, exchange of shares or other like change with respect to Company Common Stock or Preferred Stock occurring on or after the date hereof and prior to Acquisition Sub’s acceptance for payment of, and payment for, Shares pursuant to the Offers.

(f) Schedule TO and Offer Documents. On the date of commencement of the Offer, the Buyer and the Acquisition Sub shall file with the SEC a tender offer statement on Schedule TO (together with all amendments and supplements thereto, the “Schedule TO”) with respect to the Offers. The Schedule TO shall contain an offer to purchase (the “Offer to Purchase”), a form of the related letters of transmittal (the “Letter of Transmittal”), and ancillary documents and instruments pursuant to which the Offers will be made (collectively, together with any supplements or amendments thereto, the “Offer Documents”). The Buyer and the Acquisition Sub agree that the Offer Documents shall comply in all material respects with the requirements of applicable U.S. Federal securities laws and, on the date first filed with the SEC and on the date first published, sent or given to the Company’s stockholders, shall not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, except that no covenant, agreement, representation or

warranty is made by the Buyer or the Acquisition Sub with respect to information supplied by the Company or any of its stockholders for inclusion or incorporation by reference in the Offer Documents. The Company hereby agrees that the information provided by or on behalf of the Company in writing specifically for inclusion or incorporation by reference in the Schedule TO or the Offer Documents shall not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. The Buyer and the Acquisition Sub shall cause the Offer Documents to be disseminated to holders of Shares, as and to the extent required by applicable U.S. federal securities laws. Each of the Buyer, the Acquisition Sub and the Company shall promptly correct any information provided by it for use in the Schedule TO or the Offer Documents if and to the extent that such information shall have become false or misleading in any material respect, and the Buyer and the Acquisition Sub shall take all steps necessary to amend or supplement the Schedule TO and, as applicable, the Offer Documents and to cause the Schedule TO as so amended and supplemented to be filed with the SEC and the Offer Documents as so amended and supplemented to be disseminated to holders of Shares, in each case as and to the extent required by applicable U.S. federal securities laws. The Company and its counsel shall be given reasonable opportunity to review and comment upon the Offer Documents and any amendments thereto prior to the filing thereof with the SEC or dissemination to the stockholders of the Company, and the Buyer and the Acquisition Sub shall give reasonable and good faith consideration to any comments made by the Company and its counsel. The Buyer and the Acquisition Sub shall (i) provide the Company and its counsel with a copy of any written comments or telephonic notification of any oral comments the Buyer, the Acquisition Sub or their counsel may receive from the SEC or its staff with respect to the Offer promptly after the receipt thereof, (ii) consult in good faith with the Company and its counsel prior to responding to any such comments, and (iii) provide the Company and its counsel with a copy of any written responses thereto and telephonic notification of any oral responses thereto of the Buyer or the Acquisition Sub or their counsel.

(g) Top-Up Option.

(i) Subject to Section 1.1(g)(ii) and Section 1.1(g)(iii) hereof, the Company grants to the Buyer and the Acquisition Sub an assignable and irrevocable option (the “Top-Up Option”) to purchase from the Company the number of newly-issued shares of Company Common Stock equal to the lesser of (i) the number of shares of Company Common Stock that, when added to the number of shares of Company Common Stock owned by the Buyer or the Acquisition Sub at the time of exercise of the Top-Up Option, constitutes more than 90% of the number of shares of Company Common Stock that would be outstanding immediately after the issuance of all shares of Company Common Stock subject to the Top-Up Option (determined on a “fully diluted basis” (which assumes conversion or exercise of all derivative securities regardless of the conversion or exercise price, the vesting schedule or other terms or conditions thereof)) and (ii) the aggregate number of shares of Company Common Stock that the Company is authorized to issue under its certificate of incorporation but that are not issued and outstanding (and are not subscribed for or otherwise committed to be issued) at the time of exercise of the Top-Up Option.

(ii) The Top-Up Option may be exercised by the Buyer or the Acquisition Sub, in whole or in part, at any time following the Acceptance Time, so long as the

total number of shares of Company Common Stock beneficially owned by the Acquisition Sub and the Buyer constitutes at least 80% of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding. The aggregate purchase price payable for the shares of Common Stock being purchased by the Buyer or the Acquisition Sub pursuant to the Top-Up Option shall be determined by multiplying the number of such shares by the Common Offer Price. Such purchase price may be paid by the Buyer or the Acquisition Sub, at its election, either entirely in cash or by paying in cash an amount equal to not less than the aggregate par value of such shares and by executing and delivering to the Company a promissory note on terms reasonably satisfactory to the Company.

(iii) In the event the Buyer or the Acquisition Sub wishes to exercise the Top-Up Option, the Buyer or the Acquisition Sub shall deliver to the Company a notice setting forth (i) the number of shares of Company Common Stock that the Buyer or the Acquisition Sub intends to purchase pursuant to the Top-Up Option, (ii) the manner in which the Buyer or the Acquisition Sub intends to pay the applicable exercise price and (iii) the place and time at which the closing of the purchase of such shares of Company Common Stock by the Buyer or the Acquisition Sub is to take place. At the closing of the purchase of such shares of Common Stock, the Buyer or the Acquisition Sub shall cause to be delivered to the Company the consideration required to be delivered in exchange for such shares, which consideration shall be paid (i) in cash, by wire transfer or cashier’s check or (ii) by issuance by the Buyer or the Acquisition Sub, as applicable, to the Company of a promissory note on terms reasonably satisfactory to the Company, and the Company shall cause to be issued to the Buyer or the Acquisition Sub (as the case may be) a certificate representing such shares. The obligation of the Company to issue such shares will be subject to compliance with all applicable regulatory requirements.

(h) Company Actions.

(i) Approval and Consent. The Company Board, at a meeting duly called and held, has adopted resolutions: (A) determining that the terms of the Offers, the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement are fair and in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders, and declaring it advisable to enter into this Agreement; (B) approving the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, including the Offers and the Merger; (C) recommending that the stockholders of the Company accept the Offers, tender their Shares pursuant to the Offers and, if required by the DGCL, vote their Shares in favor of the adoption of this Agreement in accordance with the applicable provisions of the DGCL (the “Recommendation”); (D) rendering the limitations on business combinations contained in Section 203 of the DGCL inapplicable to the Offers, this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby; and (E) electing that the Offers and the Merger, to the extent of the Company Board’s power and authority and to the extent permitted by Law, not be subject to any “moratorium,” “control share acquisition,” “business combination,” “fair price,” or other form of anti-takeover laws and regulations (collectively, “Takeover Laws”) of any jurisdiction that may purport to be applicable to this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated hereby. The Company hereby consents to the inclusion of the foregoing determinations and approvals, including the Recommendation, in the Offer Documents.

(ii) Schedule 14D-9. As soon as practicable on the date that the Schedule TO is filed with the SEC, and subject to the remainder of this clause (ii), the Company shall file with the SEC a Solicitation/Recommendation Statement on Schedule 14D-9 with respect to the Offer (together with all amendments and supplements thereto and including all exhibits thereto, the “Schedule 14D-9”) and disseminate the Schedule 14D-9, to the extent required by Rule 14d-9 promulgated under the Exchange Act and any other applicable Laws, to the stockholders of the Company. Except as permitted by Section 6.1, the Offer Documents and the Schedule 14D-9 shall contain the Recommendation, and the Company hereby consents to the inclusion of the Recommendation in the Offer Documents. The Company agrees that the Schedule 14D-9 shall comply in all material respects with the requirements of applicable U.S. federal securities laws and on the date first filed with the SEC and on the date first published, sent or given to the Company’s stockholders, shall not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, except that no covenant, agreement, representation or warranty is made by the Company with respect to information supplied by the Buyer or the Acquisition Sub for inclusion or incorporation by reference in the Schedule 14D-9. Each of the Buyer and Acquisition Sub hereby agrees that the information provided by or on behalf of the Buyer and Acquisition Sub in writing specifically for inclusion or incorporation by reference in the Schedule 14D-9 shall not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. Each of the Company, the Buyer and the Acquisition Sub each shall promptly correct any information provided by it for use in the Schedule 14D-9 if and to the extent that such information shall have become false or misleading in any material respect, and the Company shall take all steps necessary to amend or supplement the Schedule 14D-9 and to cause the Schedule 14D-9 as so amended or supplemented to be filed with the SEC and disseminated to the Company’s stockholders, in each case as and to the extent required by applicable U.S. federal securities laws. The Buyer and its counsel shall be given reasonable opportunity to review and comment upon the Schedule 14D-9 and any amendments thereto prior to the filing thereof with the SEC or dissemination to stockholders of the Company and the Company shall give reasonable and good faith consideration to any comments made by the Buyer and the Acquisition Sub and their counsel. The Company shall provide the Buyer and its counsel with a copy of any written comments or telephonic notification of any oral comments the Company or its counsel may receive from the SEC or its staff with respect to the Offers promptly after the receipt thereof, and shall consult in good faith with the Buyer and its counsel prior to responding to any such comments, and shall provide the Buyer and its counsel with a copy of any written responses thereto and telephonic notification of any oral responses thereto of the Company or its counsel.

(iii) Provision of Information. The Company shall supply to the Buyer and the Acquisition Sub, in writing, for inclusion in the Offer Documents, all information concerning the Company, and the Buyer and the Acquisition Sub shall supply to the Company, in writing, for inclusion in the Schedule 14D-9, all information concerning the Buyer and the Acquisition Sub, in each case, required under applicable U.S. federal securities laws to be included in the Offer Documents or the Schedule 14D-9 or that may reasonably be requested by the Buyer and the Acquisition Sub or the Company, as applicable, in connection with the preparation of the Offer Documents or the Schedule 14D-9, as applicable.

(iv) Stockholder Lists. In connection with the Offer and the Merger, the Company shall as soon as reasonably practicable furnish the Acquisition Sub or its designated agent with mailing labels, security position listings, any available non-objecting beneficial owner lists and any available listing or computer list containing the names and addresses of the record holders of the Shares as of the most recent practicable date, and shall furnish to the Acquisition Sub such information and assistance (including updated lists and information) as the Acquisition Sub may reasonably request for the purpose of communicating the Offers to the Company’s stockholders. Subject to the requirements of applicable Laws and except for such steps as are necessary to disseminate the Offer Documents and any other documents necessary to consummate the Offers, the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement, the Buyer and the Acquisition Sub shall, until consummation of the Offers, hold in confidence the information contained in any of such labels and lists, and shall use such information only in connection with the communication of the Offers to the Company’s stockholders and the dissemination to the Company’s stockholders of any proxy or information statement relating to the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement. If this Agreement shall be terminated in accordance with Article VIII, the Buyer and the Acquisition Sub shall, upon request, deliver to the Company all copies of such information then in their possession or under their control.

(i) Directors.

(i) Election of Buyer Designees. From and after the time the Acquisition Sub accepts Shares tendered pursuant to the Offers (the “Acceptance Time”), the Buyer shall be entitled to designate such number of members of the Company Board (the “Buyer Designees”), rounded up to the nearest whole number, as will give the Buyer representation on the Company Board equal to the product of the total number of members of the Company Board (after giving effect to the directors elected pursuant to this sentence) multiplied by the percentage that the voting power of the Shares beneficially owned by the Buyer and the Acquisition Sub at such time (including Shares so accepted for payment) bears to the total voting power of the Shares then outstanding; provided, that in no event shall Buyer have the right to designate any member of the Company Board unless and until Acquisition Sub has accepted for payment Shares tendered pursuant to the Offers representing a majority of the total outstanding voting power of the Company on a fully diluted basis (and therefore, at such time as the Buyer has the right to designate any Buyer Designees, the Buyer shall have the right to designate no less than a majority of the members of the Company Board). Subject to applicable Law, the Company shall take all actions necessary, including by increasing the size of the Company Board or securing the resignations of such number of the Company’s incumbent directors, or both, to enable the Buyer Designees to be so elected or appointed to the Company Board and to cause the Buyer Designees to be so elected or appointed. From time to time after the Acceptance Time, the Company also shall take all actions necessary to cause the Buyer Designees to constitute substantially the same percentage (rounding up where appropriate) as is on the Company Board (i) on each committee of the Company Board and (ii) each board of directors of each of the Company’s subsidiaries, each to the fullest extent permitted by all applicable Laws.

(ii) Continuing Directors. The Buyer and the Acquisition Sub shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that the Company Board shall, at all times prior to the Effective Time, have at least two Continuing Directors (as defined below). Subject

to applicable Law, the Company shall promptly take all action pursuant to Section 14(f) of the Exchange Act (“Section 14(f)”) and Rule 14f-1 promulgated thereunder (“Rule 14f-1”) in order to fulfill its obligations under Section 1.1(i)(i) and (ii), and shall include as an appendix to the Schedule 14D-9 such information with respect to the Company and its directors and officers as is required under Section 14(f) and Rule 14f-1 in order to fulfill its obligations under Section 1.1(i)(i) and (ii). Buyer shall provide to the Company in writing any information with respect to itself and its nominees, directors, officers and Affiliates, required by Section 14(f) and Rule 14f-1. The provisions of this Section 1.1(i)(ii) are in addition to, and shall not limit, any right that Acquisition Sub, Buyer or any of their respective Affiliates may have with respect to the election of directors or otherwise under applicable Laws as a holder or beneficial owner of shares of the Common Stock. If at any time prior to the Effective Time there shall be in office only one Continuing Director for any reason, the Company Board shall be entitled to appoint a person who is not an officer or employee of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries designated by the remaining Continuing Director to fill such vacancy (and such person shall be deemed to be a Continuing Director for all purposes of this Agreement), and if at any time prior to the Effective Time no Continuing Directors then remain, the other directors of the Company then in office shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to designate two persons to fill such vacancies who are not officers or employees or affiliates of the Company, its Subsidiaries, Buyer or Acquisition Sub or any of their respective affiliates (and such persons shall be deemed to be Continuing Directors for all purposes of this Agreement). “Continuing Director” shall mean (1) any member of the Company Board, while such person is a member of the Company Board, who is not an Affiliate, representative or designee of the Buyer or the Acquisition Sub and who was a member of the Company Board prior to the date of the Agreement, and (2) any successor of a Continuing Director while such successor is a member of the Company Board, who is not an Affiliate, representative or designee of the Buyer or the Acquisition Sub and was recommended or elected to succeed such Continuing Director by a majority of Continuing Directors.

(iii) Required Approvals of Continuing Directors. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, in the event that (x) Buyer Designees are elected or appointed to the Board of Directors pursuant to Section 1.1(i)(i) and (y) for the period commencing when Buyer Designees are so elected or appointed and ending upon the Effective Time, there shall be any Continuing Directors, then the approval of a majority of such Continuing Directors (or the sole Continuing Director if there shall be only one (1) Continuing Director) shall be required in order to (i) amend or terminate this Agreement, or agree or consent to any amendment or termination of this Agreement, in any case on behalf of the Company, (ii) extend the time for performance of, or waive, any of the obligations or other acts of Buyer or Acquisition Sub under this Agreement, (iii) waive any of the Company’s rights under this Agreement, (iv) amend, rescind, repeal or waive the certificate of incorporation or bylaws of the Company, or (v) make any other determination with respect to any action to be taken or not to be taken by or on behalf of the Company relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, including the Offers and the Merger.

ARTICLE II

CONVERSION OF SECURITIES

Section 2.1 Conversion of Capital Stock. As of the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the holder of any shares of the capital stock of the Company or capital stock of the Acquisition Sub:

(a) Capital Stock of the Acquisition Sub. Each share of the common stock of the Acquisition Sub issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into and become one fully paid and nonassessable share of common stock, $0.01 par value per share, of the Surviving Corporation (“Surviving Corporation Stock”).

(b) Cancellation of Treasury Stock and Buyer-Owned Stock. All shares of Company Common Stock that are owned by the Company as treasury stock and any shares of Company Common Stock owned by the Buyer or the Acquisition Sub immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than Shares held on behalf of third parties) (“Cancelled Shares”) shall be cancelled and shall cease to exist and no consideration shall be delivered in exchange therefor. Each share of Company Common Stock held by any wholly owned Subsidiary of the Company or any wholly owned Subsidiary of the Buyer (other than the Acquisition Sub) immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into such number of fully paid and nonassessable shares (or fractions thereof) of Surviving Corporation Stock that preserves the relative ownership interest represented by such share of Company Common Stock immediately prior to the Merger.

(c) Merger Consideration for Company Capital Stock. Subject to Section 2.2, each share of Company Common Stock (other than shares to be cancelled or to be converted into Surviving Corporation Stock in accordance with Section 2.1(b) and Dissenting Shares (as defined in Section 2.4(a) below)) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be automatically converted into the right to receive $5.40 in cash or such greater amount as may have been paid to any holder of shares of Company Common Stock pursuant to the Common Offer (the “Common Merger Consideration”). Each share of Preferred Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than Dissenting Shares) shall be

converted into the right to receive $54.00 plus the Dividend Amount (the “Preferred Merger Consideration” and, together with the Common Merger Consideration, the “Merger Consideration”). The “Dividend Amount” with respect to each share of Preferred Stock shall mean the product of (1) (A) the amount of accrued and unpaid dividends on such share of Preferred Stock at the Acceptance Time, in the case of shares of Preferred Stock sold pursuant to the Preferred Offer, or at the Effective Time, in the case of shares of Preferred Stock converted in connection with the Merger, divided by (B) $3.84, which amount reflects the average Market Price (as defined in the Certificate of Designations, Preferences and Rights of the Preferred Stock) of the Company Common Stock for the ten (10) consecutive Trading Days (as defined in the Certificate of Designations, Preferences and Rights of the Preferred Stock) prior to, and including, the date hereof and (2) an amount equal to the Common Merger Consideration. As of the Effective Time, all such shares of Company Common Stock and Preferred Stock (together, the “Company Capital Stock”) shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be cancelled and shall cease to exist, and each holder of a certificate representing any such shares of Company Capital Stock shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive the Merger Consideration pursuant to this Section 2.1(c) upon the surrender of such certificate in accordance with Section 2.2, without interest.

(d) Adjustments to Merger Consideration. The Merger Consideration shall be equitably adjusted to reflect fully the effect of any reclassification, stock split, reverse split, stock dividend (including any dividend or distribution of securities convertible into Company Common Stock), reorganization, recapitalization or other like change with respect to Company Common Stock or Preferred Stock occurring (or for which a record date is established) after the date hereof and prior to the Effective Time.

Section 2.2 Exchange of Certificates. The procedures for exchanging outstanding shares of Company Capital Stock for the Merger Consideration pursuant to the Merger are as follows:

(a) Exchange Agent. At or prior to the Effective Time, the Buyer shall deposit with a bank or trust company reasonably acceptable to the Company (the “Paying Agent”), for the benefit of the holders of shares of Company Capital Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, for payment through the Paying Agent in accordance with this Section 2.2, cash in an amount sufficient to make payment of the Merger Consideration in exchange for all of the outstanding shares of Company Capital Stock that are converted pursuant to Section 2.1(c) (the “Exchange Fund”). The Exchange Fund shall not be used for any other purpose. The Exchange Fund shall be invested by the Paying Agent as directed by the Buyer; provided, however, that such investments shall be in obligations of or guaranteed by the United States of America, in commercial paper obligations rated A-1 or P-1 or better by Xxxxx’x Investors Service, Inc. or Standard & Poor’s Corporation, respectively, or in certificates of deposit, bank repurchase agreements or banker’s acceptances of commercial banks with capital exceeding $1 billion (based on the most recent financial statements of such bank which are then publicly available).

(b) Exchange Procedures. Promptly (and in any event within five (5) Business Days) after the Effective Time, the Buyer shall cause the Paying Agent to mail to each holder of record of a certificate which immediately prior to the Effective Time represented

outstanding shares of Company Capital Stock (each, a “Certificate”) (i) a letter of transmittal in customary form and (ii) instructions for effecting the surrender of the Certificates in exchange for the Merger Consideration payable with respect thereto. Upon surrender of a Certificate for cancellation to the Paying Agent, together with such letter of transmittal, duly completed and validly executed and such other documents as may reasonably be requested by the Paying Agent, the holder of such Certificate shall be paid promptly in exchange therefor cash in an amount equal to the Merger Consideration that such holder has the right to receive pursuant to the provisions of this Article II, and the Certificate so surrendered shall immediately be cancelled. No interest will be paid or accrued on the cash payable upon the surrender of such Certificate or Certificates. In the event of a transfer of ownership of Company Capital Stock which is not registered in the transfer records of the Company, the Merger Consideration may be paid to a Person (as defined in this Section 2.2(b)) other than the Person in whose name the Certificate so surrendered is registered, if such Certificate is presented to the Paying Agent, accompanied by all documents required to evidence and effect such transfer and by evidence that any applicable stock transfer Taxes have been paid. Until surrendered as contemplated by this Section 2.2, each Certificate shall be deemed at any time after the Effective Time to represent only the right to receive upon such surrender the Merger Consideration as contemplated by this Section 2.2. As used in this Agreement, “Person” means any individual, corporation, partnership, limited liability company, joint venture, association, trust, Governmental Authority, unincorporated organization or other entity.

(c) No Further Ownership Rights in Company Common Stock. All Merger Consideration paid upon the surrender of Certificates in accordance with the terms hereof shall be deemed to have been paid in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to the shares of Company Capital Stock formerly represented by such Certificates, and from and after the Effective Time there shall be no further registration of transfers on the stock transfer books of the Surviving Corporation of the shares of Company Capital Stock which were outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time. If, after the Effective Time, Certificates are presented to the Surviving Corporation or the Paying Agent for any reason, they shall be cancelled and exchanged as provided in this Article II.

(d) Termination of Exchange Fund. Any portion of the Exchange Fund which remains undistributed to the holders of Company Common Stock for one (1) year after the Effective Time shall be delivered to the Buyer or the Surviving Corporation, as directed by the Buyer, upon demand, and any holder of Company Capital Stock who has not previously complied with this Section 2.2 shall be entitled to receive only from the Buyer payment of its claim for Merger Consideration, without interest.

(e) No Liability. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, none of the Buyer, the Acquisition Sub, the Company, the Surviving Corporation or the Paying Agent shall be liable to any holder of shares of Company Capital Stock delivered to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Law.

(f) Withholding Rights. Each of the Buyer, the Acquisition Sub, the Surviving Corporation and the Paying Agent shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement to any holder of shares of Company Capital Stock, Company Stock Options or any rights under a Company Stock Plan such amounts

as it is required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under the Code, or any other applicable state, local or foreign Tax Law. To the extent that amounts are so withheld by the Surviving Corporation, the Buyer or the Paying Agent, as the case may be, such withheld amounts (i) shall be remitted by the Buyer, the Surviving Corporation or the Paying Agent, as the case may be, to the applicable Governmental Authority and (ii) shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the holder of the shares of Company Capital Stock, Company Stock Options or rights under a Company Stock Plan in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made.

(g) Lost Certificates. If any Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the Person claiming such Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed, the Paying Agent shall pay, in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate, the Merger Consideration to be paid in respect of the shares of Company Capital Stock formerly represented thereby pursuant to this Agreement.

(h) Expenses. The Buyer or the Acquisition Sub shall bear and pay all charges and expenses, including those of the Paying Agent, incurred in connection with the payment for the shares of Company Capital Stock.

Section 2.3 Warrants, Options and Company Stock Plans.

(a) Cash-Out of Warrants. At the Effective Time, each outstanding warrant to purchase shares of Company Common Stock (“Company Warrants”), in each case whether or not then exercisable, shall without any action on the part of the Company or the holder of such warrant, automatically be cancelled and exchanged for a cash payment provided by the Buyer, the Acquisition Sub or the Surviving Corporation (which shall be made promptly after the Effective Time) in an amount equal to (i) the excess, if any, of (x) the Merger Consideration per share of Company Common Stock over (y) the exercise price per share of Company Common Stock subject to such Company Warrant, multiplied by (ii) the number of shares of Company Common Stock for which such Company Warrant is exercisable immediately prior to the Effective Time without interest and less any amounts required to be deducted and withheld under applicable Law.

(b) Treatment of Options. At the Effective Time, each outstanding option to purchase shares of Company Common Stock (“Company Stock Option”), in each case whether or not then exercisable, shall without any action on the part of the Company or the holder of such Company Stock Option, automatically be cancelled and exchanged for a cash payment provided by the Buyer, the Acquisition Sub or the Surviving Corporation (which shall be made promptly after the Effective Time) in an amount equal to (i) the excess, if any, of (x) the Merger Consideration per share of Company Common Stock over (y) the exercise price per share of Company Common Stock subject to such Company Stock Option, multiplied by (ii) the number of shares of Company Common Stock for which such Company Stock Option is exercisable immediately prior to the Effective Time without interest and less any amounts required to be deducted and withheld under applicable Law.

(c) No Continuing Interest. The parties agree that, following the Effective Time, no holder of a Company Stock Option or Company Warrant or any participant in any

stock plan or other equity-related or equity-based plan of the Company or a Subsidiary, including, without limitation, any plan or arrangement which provides for Company Stock Options, restricted stock, restricted stock units, phantom stock, stock appreciation rights or stock purchase rights (each, a “Company Stock Plan”) or other Company Employee Plan or employee benefit arrangement of the Company or under any Employment Agreement shall have any right thereunder to acquire any equity interest (including any “phantom” stock or stock appreciation rights) in the Company, any Subsidiary of the Company or the Surviving Corporation.

(d) Action by the Company. Prior to the Effective Time, the Company will (i) make any amendments to the terms of any Company Stock Plan that are reasonably necessary to give effect to the transactions contemplated by Section 2.3(b) and (ii) adopt such resolutions and take such other actions as may be reasonably required to effectuate the actions contemplated by this Section 2.3, without paying any consideration or incurring any debts or obligations on behalf of the Company or the Surviving Corporation.

Section 2.4 Dissenting Shares.

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, shares of Company Capital Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than Cancelled Shares or shares to be converted into Surviving Corporation Stock in accordance with Section 2.1(b)) that are held by a holder who has not voted in favor of the adoption of this Agreement or consented thereto in writing and who is entitled to demand and has properly exercised appraisal rights of such shares of Company Capital Stock in accordance with Section 262 of the DGCL (any such shares being referred to as “Dissenting Shares” until such time as such holder fails to perfect or otherwise loses such holder’s appraisal rights under the DGCL with respect to such shares) shall not be converted into or represent the right to receive Merger Consideration in accordance with Section 2.1, but shall be entitled only to receive payment of the appraised value of such Dissenting Shares in accordance with Section 262 of the DGCL unless and until such holder fails to perfect or effectively withdraws or loses its rights to appraisal and payment under the DGCL.

(b) If any Dissenting Shares shall lose their status as such (through failure to perfect or otherwise), then, as of the later of the Effective Time or the date of loss of such status, such shares shall automatically be converted into and shall represent only the right to receive Merger Consideration in accordance with Section 2.1, without interest thereon, upon surrender of the Certificate formerly representing such shares.

(c) The Company shall give the Buyer: (i) prompt notice of any written demand for appraisal received by the Company prior to the Effective Time pursuant to the DGCL, 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 relate to such demand; and (ii) the opportunity to participate in all negotiations and proceedings with respect to any such demand, notice or instrument. The Company shall not make any payment or settlement offer prior to the Effective Time with respect to any such demand, notice or instrument unless the Buyer shall have given its written consent to such payment or settlement offer.

ARTICLE VI

ADDITIONAL AGREEMENTS

Section 6.1 No Solicitation.

(a) Prior to the Effective Time, neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries shall, nor shall the Company authorize or permit any of its or its Subsidiaries’ directors, officers, employees, affiliates, agents, investment bankers, financial advisors, attorneys, accountants, brokers, finders, consultants or representatives (collectively, “Representatives”) to, directly or indirectly, (i) solicit, initiate, knowingly encourage or knowingly facilitate (including by way of furnishing or disclosing nonpublic information or permitting access to personnel or facilities) any inquiries, proposals or offers with respect to, or that would reasonably be expected to lead to, any Acquisition Proposal, (ii) enter into, continue or otherwise engage or participate in any discussions or negotiations with, or provide any information to, any Person (other than the Buyer) with respect to, or that would reasonably be expected to lead to, any Acquisition Proposal, (iii) enter into any agreement providing for an

Acquisition Proposal, or (iv) approve, endorse, recommend, or propose publicly to approve, endorse or recommend, any Acquisition Proposal.

(b) Notwithstanding Section 6.1(a), prior to the Acceptance Time, the Company or its Representatives may furnish information with respect to the Company, and negotiate or otherwise engage in discussions with, any Person that has made, after the date hereof, an unsolicited and bona fide written Acquisition Proposal, if and only to the extent that (i) such Acquisition Proposal did not result from or arise from the breach of Sections 6.1(a), (c), or (d), (ii) the Company Board determines in good faith, after consultation with outside counsel and the Company’s financial advisor, that (x) such Acquisition Proposal is, or is reasonably likely to lead to, a Superior Proposal and (y) the failure to do so would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under applicable Law, and (iii) prior to furnishing any nonpublic information to such Person, the Company shall enter into a confidentiality agreement with such Person that contains confidentiality and other provisions that are, including after taking into account any amendments or waivers with respect thereto, substantially similar to and no less favorable to the Company than the Confidentiality Agreement; provided, however, that the Company shall provide or make available to the Buyer any non-public information concerning the Company or any of its Subsidiaries that is provided to the Person making such Acquisition Proposal or its Representatives which was not previously provided or made available to the Buyer prior to or concurrently with providing such information to such other Person.

(c) The Company shall cease immediately and cause to be terminated any and all existing activities, discussions or negotiations with any parties conducted heretofore with respect to, or that may reasonably be expected to lead to, an Acquisition Proposal and promptly, following the date hereof, request that all confidential information with respect thereto furnished on behalf of the Company be returned or destroyed.

(d) Neither the Company Board nor any committee thereof may take, or resolve, agree or publicly propose to take, any of the following actions: (i) withhold, withdraw, qualify or modify in any manner adverse to the Buyer, the Recommendation, or fail to reaffirm the Recommendation within five (5) Business Days following a request by the Buyer (any of the foregoing, including if effected by amendment to the Schedule 14D-9, an “Adverse Recommendation Change”), (ii) recommend or approve an Acquisition Proposal, or (iii) authorize or permit the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to enter into any letter of intent, agreement in principle, merger agreement, acquisition agreement, option agreement or other similar agreement relating to any Acquisition Proposal (each, an “Alternative Acquisition Agreement”).

(e) Notwithstanding Section 6.1(d), if the Company Board determines in good faith, after consultation with outside counsel, that failure to take such action would be inconsistent with the directors’ fiduciary duties under applicable Law, then the Company Board may, prior to the Acceptance Time, (i) make an Adverse Recommendation Change or (ii) accept a Superior Proposal, enter into an agreement for such Superior Proposal and terminate this Agreement immediately prior to, or immediately after, such acceptance of a Superior Proposal; provided, however, that (A) the Company shall take no action under this Section 6.1(e) until the date that is five (5) Business Days after delivery of written notice to the Buyer setting forth the Company’s intention to take such action (which notice shall specify the material terms of any

applicable Acquisition Proposal, including the identity of the party making such Acquisition Proposal) (the “Notice Period”), (B) the Company shall not terminate this Agreement pursuant to the foregoing clause (ii), and any purported termination pursuant to the foregoing clause (ii) shall be void and of no force or effect, unless, concurrently with such termination the Company pays the Termination Fee pursuant to Section 8.3, (C) the Company shall not have breached this Section 6.1, and (D) prior to effecting such Adverse Recommendation Change or terminating this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1(d)(ii), the Company shall, and shall cause its Representatives to, negotiate in good faith with the Buyer, if the Buyer is still willing to do so, during the Notice Period (which Notice Period shall recommence in the event of any modification to a material term of a Superior Proposal) to make such adjustments in the terms and conditions of this Agreement so that (1) the Company Board reaffirms the Recommendation or (2) such Acquisition Proposal ceases to be a Superior Proposal, as applicable. If, as of the date on which the written notice contemplated by clause (A) of the proviso to the immediately preceding sentence is given by the Company to Buyer, there are less than three (3) Business Days remaining prior to the initial Expiration Date, then (without limiting any of the extension rights or other rights that Buyer or Acquisition Sub may have pursuant to this Agreement), Buyer shall extend the Offer to a date no earlier than the date that is five (5) Business Days following the date of such notice.

(f) The Company shall notify the Buyer as promptly as practicable, and in any event within 24 hours, of its receipt, directly or indirectly, of (i) any inquiries, negotiations, proposals, requests for information, offers or expressions of interest with respect to, or that would reasonably be expected to lead to, an Acquisition Proposal (including a copy of such Acquisition Proposal and a summary of the material terms and conditions thereof, including price, and the identity of the Person or Persons involved), and (ii) any amendment to a previously disclosed Acquisition Proposal (including the terms of such amendment).

(g) Nothing in this Section 6.1 shall prohibit the Company from complying with Rule 14e-2 promulgated under the Exchange Act with regard to an Acquisition Proposal if, in the good faith judgment of the Company Board, after consultation with outside counsel, it is required to do so under applicable Law or the failure to do so would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under applicable Law; provided, however, that in no event shall this Section 6.1(g) affect the obligations of the Company specified in Sections 6.1(a), (c), (d) or (e); and provided, further, that any disclosure required to comply with Rule 14e-2 promulgated under the Exchange Act shall be deemed to be an Adverse Recommendation Change unless the Company Board expressly publicly reaffirms the Recommendation, either in such communication or within two (2) Business Days after a request to do so from the Buyer. The Company shall, at soon as practicable but in any event prior to any such disclosure pursuant to this Section 6.1(g), provide the Buyer with a copy of the text of any disclosure made or proposed to be made pursuant to this Section 6.1(g).

(h) For purposes of this Agreement, “Acquisition Proposal” means (i) any proposal or offer from any Person or group of Persons other than the Buyer or one of its Subsidiaries for a merger, reorganization, share exchange, joint venture, consolidation, business combination, recapitalization, dissolution, liquidation, or similar transaction involving the Company (or any Subsidiary or Subsidiaries of the Company the business of which constitutes twenty percent (20%) or more of the net revenues, net income or assets of the Company and its

Subsidiaries, taken as a whole), (ii) any proposal for the issuance by the Company of over twenty percent (20%) of its equity securities or (iii) any proposal or offer to acquire in any manner, directly or indirectly, beneficial ownership (as such term is defined pursuant to Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act) of equity securities representing twenty percent (20%) or more of the Company’s voting power or assets representing twenty percent (20%) or more of the consolidated total assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries, in each case other than the Offers or the Merger.

(i) For purposes of this Agreement, “Superior Proposal” means any bona fide written Acquisition Proposal that did not result from a breach of this Section 6.1 and (A) on terms that the Company Board determines in good faith, after consultation with the Company’s outside legal counsel and financial advisors, to be more favorable to the holders of Shares from a financial point of view than the Offers and the Merger, taking into account all the terms and conditions of such proposal and this Agreement (including any changes to the terms of this Agreement proposed by the Buyer in good faith to the Company in response to such proposal or otherwise) and (B) that the Company Board believes is reasonably capable of being completed, taking into account all financial, regulatory, legal and other aspects of such proposal; provided, however, that for purposes of the definition of “Superior Proposal,” the references to “twenty percent (20%)” in the definitions of Acquisition Proposal shall be deemed to be references to “fifty percent (50%).”

Section 6.2 Access to Information. During the Interim Period, the Company shall (and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to) (i) provide to the Buyer, the Acquisition Sub and their respective Representatives full and complete access, at reasonable times upon prior notice, to the officers, employees, consultants, affiliates, customers, suppliers, agents, properties, offices and other facilities of the Company and its Subsidiaries and to the books and records thereof and (ii) furnish promptly such information concerning the business, properties, contracts, assets, liabilities, personnel, customers, suppliers and other aspects of the Company and its Subsidiaries as the Buyer, the Acquisition Sub or any of their respective Representatives may reasonably request. Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries shall be required to provide access to or disclose information where such access or disclosure would result in a loss or impairment of any attorney-client or attorney work product privilege or violate applicable Law or existing confidentiality obligations of the Company, in which case the parties hereto will use reasonable efforts to make appropriate substitute disclosure arrangements. For avoidance of doubt, no investigation by the Buyer, the Acquisition Sub or any of their respective Representatives, whether prior to the execution of this Agreement or pursuant to this Section 6.2, shall affect any representation or warranty in this Agreement of any party hereto or any condition to the obligations of the parties hereto. All information obtained by the Buyer and its representatives pursuant to this Section 6.2 shall be treated as “Disclosure Material” for purposes of the Confidentiality Agreement.

Section 6.3 Reasonable Best Efforts.

(a) Subject to Sections 6.3(b) and 6.3(c) hereof, each of the Company, the Buyer and the Acquisition Sub shall use its reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions, and do, or cause to be done, and to assist and cooperate with the other parties in doing, all things reasonably necessary, proper or advisable to consummate and make effective

the transactions contemplated hereby as promptly as practicable, including (i) obtaining from any Governmental Authority or any other third party any consents, licenses, permits, waivers, approvals, authorizations, clearances, or orders required to be obtained or made by the Company, the Buyer or any of their respective Subsidiaries (including the Acquisition Sub) in connection with the authorization, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby; and (ii) making all necessary filings, and thereafter making any other required submissions, with respect to this Agreement and the Merger required under (A) the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, and any other applicable federal or state securities laws, (B) the HSR Act and any related governmental request thereunder and (C) any other applicable Law; provided, however, that nothing in this Agreement shall require the Buyer and the Acquisition Sub to (and the Company shall not) become subject to, or consent or agree to or otherwise take any action with respect to, any requirement, condition, understanding, agreement or order of a Governmental Authority to sell, to divest, to hold separate or otherwise dispose of, or to conduct, restrict, operate, invest or otherwise change assets or businesses of the Company, the Buyer, or any of their subsidiaries.

(b) Until the Effective Time, each party shall promptly notify the other parties in writing of any pending or, to the knowledge of the first party, threatened action, proceeding or investigation by any Governmental Authority or any other Person (i) challenging or seeking material damages in connection with the Merger or any of the other transactions contemplated hereby or (ii) seeking to restrain or prohibit the consummation of the Merger or any of the other transactions contemplated hereby or otherwise limit the right of the Surviving Corporation to own or operate any material portion of the businesses, assets or properties of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries.

(c) Each party shall consult and cooperate with each other in connection with their duties set forth in this Section 6.3. The Company, the Buyer and the Acquisition Sub shall use their respective commercially reasonable efforts to furnish each other all information required for any application or other filing to be made pursuant to applicable Law in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. In addition, the Company shall cooperate with Buyer in making any filings or submissions in connection with, or obtaining any clearance required pursuant to, the HSR Act in connection with the Additional Transaction.

(d) Each of the Company, the Buyer and the Acquisition Sub shall give (or shall cause their respective Subsidiaries to give) any notices to third parties, and use, and cause their respective Subsidiaries to use, their commercially reasonable efforts to obtain any third-party consents.

Section 6.4 Public Disclosure. The Company, the Buyer and the Acquisition Sub shall consult with each other before issuing any press release or otherwise making any public statements with respect to this Agreement, the Offers, the Merger or any of the transactions contemplated herein. Prior to the Closing, none of the Company, the Buyer or the Acquisition Sub shall issue any press release or otherwise make any public statement without the prior consent of the other parties hereto (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), except as may be required by applicable Law or any listing agreement with any national securities exchange to which the Company, the Buyer or the Acquisition Sub is a party and, in such case, shall use reasonable efforts to consult with all the parties hereto prior to such release or statement

being issued. The parties shall agree on the text of a joint press release by which the Company, the Buyer and the Acquisition Sub will announce the execution of this Agreement.

Section 6.5 Indemnification and Insurance.

(a) The Buyer and the Surviving Corporation shall jointly and severally indemnify, defend and hold harmless each person who is now, or has been at any time prior to the date hereof, or who becomes prior to the Effective Time, a director or an officer of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (the “Indemnified Parties”) to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL from and against all liabilities, costs, expenses and claims (including without limitation reasonable legal fees and disbursements, which shall be paid, reimbursed or advanced by the Surviving Corporation in a manner consistent with applicable provisions of the Company’s certificate of incorporation as in effect on the date hereof) arising out of the actions taken in performance of their duties as directors or officers of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries whether asserted or claimed prior to, at or after the Effective Time; provided, however, the Buyer’s and Surviving Corporation’s obligations to the Indemnified Parties under this Section 6.5(a) shall not be effective until consummation of the Merger; provided, further, neither the Buyer nor the Surviving Corporation shall have any obligation hereunder to any Indemnified Party if the indemnification of such Indemnified Party in the manner contemplated hereby is determined pursuant to a final non-appealable judgment rendered by a court of competent jurisdiction to be prohibited by applicable Law.

(b) The Surviving Corporation shall either: (i) maintain in effect, and the Buyer shall cause the Surviving Corporation to maintain, for six (6) years from and after the Effective Time, directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policies covering the persons who are currently covered in their capacities as such directors and officers by the Company’s current directors’ and officers’ policies and on terms not materially less favorable than the existing insurance coverage with respect to matters occurring prior to the Effective Time so long as the premium for such coverage does not exceed an amount equal to 300% of the last annual premium paid immediately prior to the date hereof by the Company for such coverage (the “Maximum Premium”) or (ii) purchase a six (6)-year extended reporting period endorsement with respect to the Company’s current directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policies (a “Reporting Tail Endorsement”) and maintain such endorsement in full force and effect for its full term. If the Company’s existing insurance expires, is terminated or cancelled during such six-year period or exceeds the Maximum Premium, the Surviving Corporation shall obtain, and Buyer shall cause the Surviving Corporation to obtain, as much directors’ and officers’ liability insurance as can be obtained for the remainder of such period for an annualized premium not in excess of the Maximum Premium, on terms and conditions no less advantageous to the Indemnified Parties than the Company’s existing directors’ and officers’ liability insurance. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Company may, with the Buyer’s prior written consent, prior to the Effective Time, purchase a Reporting Tail Endorsement, provided that the Company does not pay more than six (6) times the Maximum Premium for such Reporting Tail Endorsement, in which case, the Surviving Corporation shall, and the Buyer shall cause the Surviving Corporation to maintain such Reporting Tail Endorsement in full force and effect for its full term, the Buyer shall be relieved from its obligations under the preceding two sentences of this Section 6.5(b) prior to the date hereof by the Company.

(c) Except as may be limited by applicable Laws: (i) for six (6) years from and after the Effective Time, the indemnification obligations set forth in the Company’s certificate of incorporation and the Company’s By-Laws, in each case as of the date of this Agreement, shall survive the Merger and shall not be amended, repealed or otherwise modified after the Effective Time in any manner that would adversely affect the rights thereunder of the individuals who on or at any time prior to the Effective Time were entitled to indemnification thereunder with respect to matters occurring prior to the Effective Time; and (ii) the indemnification obligations of the Company, as set forth in other indemnification agreements to which it is a party and as disclosed in Section 6.5 of the Company Disclosure Letter, shall not be amended, repealed or otherwise modified after the Effective Time except as permitted by the terms and provisions of those agreements.

(d) The Buyer shall pay all expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, that may be incurred by the persons referred to in this Section 6.5 in connection with the enforcement of their rights provided in this Section 6.5.

(e) The provisions of this Section 6.5 are intended to be in addition to the rights otherwise available to the current officers and directors of the Company by Law, charter, statute, bylaw or agreement, and shall operate for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable by, each of the Indemnified Parties, their heirs and their representatives.

Section 6.6 Notification of Certain Matters. During the Interim Period, the Buyer and the Acquisition Sub shall give prompt notice to the Company, and the Company shall give prompt notice to the Buyer and the Acquisition Sub, of (a) the occurrence, or failure to occur, of any event, which occurrence or failure to occur is reasonably likely to cause any representation or warranty of such party contained in this Agreement to be untrue or inaccurate in any material respect, in each case at any time from and after the date of this Agreement until the Effective Time, or (b) any material failure of the Buyer and Acquisition Sub or the Company, as the case may be, or of any officer, director, employee or agent thereof, to comply with or satisfy any covenant, condition or agreement to be complied with or satisfied by it under this Agreement. Notwithstanding the above, the delivery of any notice pursuant to this Section 6.6 will not limit or otherwise affect the remedies available hereunder to the party receiving such notice or the conditions to such party’s obligation to consummate the Merger.

Section 6.7 Employee Benefits.

(a) Following the Effective Time, and except for purposes of determining eligibility for retiree health and welfare benefits, the Buyer will give each employee of the Company or the Surviving Corporation or their respective Subsidiaries who shall have been employees of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries immediately prior to the Effective Time (“Continuing Employees”) full credit for prior service with the Company or its Subsidiaries to the extent such service would be recognized if it had been performed as an employee of Buyer for purposes of (i) eligibility and vesting under any Buyer Employee Plans (as defined below), and (ii) unless covered under another arrangement with or of the Buyer or the Surviving Corporation, determination of benefit levels under any Buyer Employee Plan or policy of general application relating to vacation or severance, in either case for which the Continuing Employees are otherwise prospectively eligible and in which the Continuing Employees are offered

participation, but except where such credit would result in a duplication of benefits. For the avoidance of doubt, no Continuing Employee shall be retroactively eligible for any Buyer Employee Plan, including any such Buyer Employee Plan that was frozen prior to the Effective Time. In addition, the Buyer shall waive, or cause to be waived, any limitations on benefits relating to pre-existing conditions to the same extent such limitations are waived under any comparable medical and dental plan of the Buyer. For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Buyer Employee Plan” means any “employee pension benefit plan” (as defined in Section 3(2) of ERISA), “employee welfare benefit plan” (as defined in Section 3(1) of ERISA), and any other formal written plan or policy under which service with the Buyer is relevant to eligibility, vesting and/or level of benefits, for the benefit of, or relating to, the current employees of the Buyer or its Subsidiaries and with respect to which eligibility has not been frozen.

(b) The Buyer shall cause the Surviving Corporation to administer the I-trax, Inc. Transition Compensation Plan (the “Retention Plan”) in accordance with its terms and satisfy its obligations under any retention and bonus agreements entered into pursuant to the Retention Plan (“Bonus Agreements”), including, but not limited to, paying transaction bonuses and retention bonuses and accelerating certain severance obligations at the times provided for in such agreements, with the understanding that the aggregate amount of transaction bonuses and retention bonuses payable thereunder shall not exceed $1,480,000 and $810,000, respectively. The Retention Plan shall not be amended, repealed or otherwise modified after the Effective Time in any manner that would adversely affect the rights of individuals who entered into Bonus Agreements at any time prior to the Effective Time.

(c) Nothing contained herein shall be construed as requiring, and the Company shall take no action that would have the effect of requiring, Buyer or the Surviving Corporation to continue any specific employee benefit plans or to continue the employment of any specific person. The provisions of this Section 6.7 are for the sole benefit of the parties to this Agreement and nothing herein, expressed or implied, is intended or shall be construed to (i) constitute an amendment to any of the compensation and benefits plans maintained for or provided to Continuing Employees prior to or following the Effective Time or (ii) confer upon or give to any person (including for the avoidance of doubt any current or former employees, directors, or independent contractors of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or on or after the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation or any of its subsidiaries), other than the parties hereto and their respective permitted successors and assigns, any legal or equitable or other rights or remedies (with respect to the matters provided for in this Section 6.7) under or by reason of any provision of this Agreement.

(d) Buyer will in good faith develop a severance program to provide reasonable severance benefits to any Continuing Employee who has not entered into an agreement with the Company providing for severance benefits and whose employment is terminated by the Buyer or any of its Subsidiaries or the Surviving Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries during the first twelve (12) months following the Effective Time. Buyer will take into account length of service and any other factors deemed relevant in setting benefits payable under such severance program. The eligibility requirements and benefits payable under such severance program will be no less favorable than those prescribed under the terms and conditions of Buyer’s Salary Continuation Plan.

Section 6.8 Takeover Statute. If any Takeover Law shall become applicable to the Offers, the Merger or the other transactions contemplated hereby, each of the Company, the Buyer and the Acquisition Sub and their respective Boards of Directors shall grant such approvals and take such actions as are reasonably necessary so that the transactions contemplated hereby may be consummated as promptly as practicable on the terms contemplated hereby and otherwise act to eliminate or minimize the effects of such Takeover Law.

Section 6.9 Stockholder Litigation. The Company shall give the Buyer the opportunity to participate, subject to a customary joint defense agreement, in, but not control, the defense or settlement of any stockholder litigation against the Company or its directors or officers relating to the Offer, the Merger or any other transactions contemplated hereby; provided, however, that no such settlement shall be agreed to without the Buyer’s consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

Section 6.10 Additional Transaction. The Buyer will not complete the proposed acquisition of Whole Health Management (the “Additional Transaction”) prior to the expiration or early termination of the waiting period or obtaining any clearance required under the HSR Act applicable to the purchase of Shares pursuant to the Offers.

ARTICLE VII

CONDITIONS TO MERGER

Section 7.1 Conditions to Each Party’s Obligations to Effect the Merger.

(iii) the Buyer or the Acquisition Sub shall not have commenced the Offer on or prior to ten (10) Business Days following the date of the initial public announcement of the Offer due to an occurrence that if occurring after the commencement of the Offer would result in a failure to satisfy any of the conditions set forth in Annex A hereto; provided that the Buyer may not terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 8.1(b)(iii) if the Buyer or the Acquisition Sub is in material breach of this Agreement; or

(i) due to an occurrence or circumstance that would result in a failure to satisfy any condition set forth in Annex A hereto (it being understood that the Buyer may not terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 8.1(c)(i) if (A) such occurrence or

circumstance is curable by the Company through the exercise of its commercially reasonable efforts on or prior to the Outside Date and (B) the Company within ten (10) days of receiving notice of such failure shall have initiated, and shall continue to use, commercially reasonable efforts to cure such failure);

(iv) prior to the purchase of Shares pursuant to the Offers, (A) the Company breaches any covenant or other agreement contained herein or (B) any representation or warranty of the Company set forth in this Agreement shall have been inaccurate when made or shall have become inaccurate as of any scheduled expiration date of the Offer (as if made on such scheduled expiration date), but in either case only to the extent that such breach or inaccuracy would reasonably be expected to result in any of the conditions set forth in Sections 3, 4, or 9 of Annex A not being satisfied as of any scheduled expiration date of the Offer; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that such breach of covenant by the Company is, or such inaccuracies in the representations and warranties of the Company are, curable by the Company through the exercise of commercially reasonable efforts, then Buyer shall not be permitted to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 8.3(c)(iv) until thirty (30) days after delivery of written notice from Buyer to the Company of such breach or inaccuracy, as applicable; provided that such cure period shall not extend beyond the Outside Date.

(d) by the Company, if:

(i) prior to the purchase of Shares pursuant to the Offers, (A) the Buyer or the Acquisition Sub breaches any covenant or other agreement contained herein in any material respect, (B) any of the representations or warranties of the Buyer or the Acquisition Sub set forth in Section 4.1, Section 4.2 and Section 4.4 shall have been inaccurate when made or shall have become inaccurate as of any scheduled expiration date of the Offer (as if made on such scheduled expiration date) or (C) any other representation or warranty of the Buyer or the Acquisition Sub set forth in this Agreement shall have been inaccurate when made or shall have become inaccurate as of any scheduled expiration date of the Offer (as if made on such scheduled expiration date), but in the case of (C) only to the extent that such breach or inaccuracy would reasonably be expected to result in a Buyer Material Adverse Effect; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that such breach of covenant by Buyer

or Acquisition Sub is, or such inaccuracies in the representations and warranties of Buyer and/or Acquisition Sub are, curable by Buyer and/or Acquisition Sub through the exercise of commercially reasonable efforts, then the Company shall not be permitted to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 8.3(d)(i) until thirty (30) days after delivery of written notice from the Company to Buyer of such breach or inaccuracy, as applicable, provided that such cure period shall not extend beyond the Outside Date; or

(c) The Buyer shall pay the Company a termination fee of $10.0 million (the “Reverse Termination Fee”) if (i) this Agreement is terminated (A) pursuant to Section 8.1(b)(i)(B), (B) by the Buyer pursuant to Section 8.1(b)(ii), provided that such termination was

due to a non-appealable final action attributable to the HSR Act, (C) pursuant to Section 8.1(c)(i), provided that such termination was attributable to a failure of the condition set forth in Section 1 of Annex A, or (D) by the Buyer pursuant to Section 8.1(b)(i)(A) (provided that, in the case of this clause (i)(D) only, (1) in the case of a termination attributable to the expiration of the Offers, the Minimum Condition is satisfied as of such termination or (2) the Buyer or the Acquisition Sub shall have breached its obligations pursuant to Section 6.10 hereof), (ii) at the time of such termination, the waiting period under the HSR Act applicable to the purchase of Shares pursuant to the Offers shall not have expired or otherwise been terminated, and (iii) the Buyer completes the Additional Transaction at any time prior to the one-year anniversary of such termination. If required under this Section 8.3(c), the Reverse Termination Fee shall be paid by the Buyer in immediately available funds within two (2) days after the event triggering such obligation.

(d) In the event that this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 8.1(c)(iv), Section 8.1(b)(iii) or Section 8.1(c)(i) (in the case of a termination pursuant to Section 8.1(b)(iii) or Section 8.1(c)(i), only if such termination was due to a failure to satisfy any of the conditions set forth in Sections 3, 4 or 9 of Annex A), the Company shall reimburse the Buyer and the Acquisition Sub for all out-of-pocket fees and expenses (including reasonable fees and expenses of counsel, accountants, consultants, financial advisors and investment bankers of the Buyer and its Affiliates) incurred by or on behalf of the Buyer or the Acquisition Sub in connection with this Agreement and all other matters related to the Offers and the Merger (together, the “Buyer Expenses”); provided, however, that (i) such reimbursable fees and expenses shall not exceed $2,000,000 in the aggregate and (ii) any amounts paid pursuant to this Section 8.3(d) shall be offset against any Termination Fee required to be paid pursuant to Section 8.3(b).

(e) In the event that this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 8.1(d)(i), the Buyer shall reimburse the Company for all out-of-pocket fees and expenses (including reasonable fees and expenses of counsel, accountants, consultants, financial advisors and investment bankers of the Company and its Affiliates) incurred by or on behalf of the Company in connection with this Agreement and all other matters related to the Offers and the Merger (together, the “Company Expenses”); provided, however, that (i) such reimbursable fees and expenses shall not exceed $2,000,000 in the aggregate and (ii) any amounts paid pursuant to this Section 8.3(e) shall be offset against any Reverse Termination Fee required to be paid pursuant to Section 8.3(c).

(f) In the event that the Company or the Buyer shall fail to pay the Termination Fee, Reverse Termination Fee, Buyer Expenses and/or Company Expenses when due, such Termination Fee, Reverse Termination Fee, Buyer Expenses and/or Company Expenses, as the case may be, shall accrue interest for the period commencing on the date such fee became past due, at a rate equal to the rate of interest publicly announced by Citibank, in the City of New York from time to time during such period, as such bank’s Prime Lending Rate. In addition, if the Company shall fail to pay the Termination Fee and/or Buyer Expenses or the Buyer shall fail to pay the Reverse Termination Fee or Company Expenses, as the case may be, when due, the Company or the Buyer, as applicable, shall also pay to the Buyer or the Company, as applicable, all of the Buyer’s or the Company’s, as applicable, costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) in connection with efforts to collect such Termination Fee, Reverse

Termination Fee, Buyer Expenses and/or Company Expenses, as the case may be. The parties acknowledge that the agreements contained in this Section 8.3 and Section 9.11are an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and that, without these agreements, the parties would not enter into this Agreement and that neither the Termination Fee nor the Reverse Termination Fee is a penalty, but rather is liquidated damages in a reasonable amount that will compensate the Buyer and the Company, as applicable, 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.

(a)

The Corporation shall indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to my threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of the Corporation), by reason of the fact that he or she is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the Corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him or her in connection with such action, suit or proceeding if he ox she acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful. The termination of any action, suit or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement or conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, shall not, of itself, create a presumption that such person did not act in good faith and in a manner which he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had reasonable cause to believe that his or her conduct was unlawful.

A-2

	(b)		The Corporation shall indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in the right of the Corporation to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that he or she is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the Corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by him or her in connection with the defense or settlement of such action or suit if he or she acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation, except that no indemnification shall be made in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable to the Corporation unless and only to the extent that the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware or the court in which such action or suit was brought shall determine upon application that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all the circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses which such Court of Chancery or such other court shall deem proper.

	(c)		To the extent that a director, officer, employee or agent of the Corporation has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any action, suit or proceeding referred to in paragraphs (a) and (b) of this Section 2, or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, he or she shall be indemnified against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by him or her in connection therewith.

	(d)		Any indemnification under paragraphs (a) and (b) of this Section 2 (unless ordered by a court) shall be made by the Corporation only as authorized in the specific case upon a determination that indemnification of the director, officer, employee or agent is proper in the circumstances because he or she has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in paragraphs (a) and (b) of this Section 2. Such determination shall be made (i) by the Board of Directors by a majority vote of a quorum consisting of directors who were not parties to such action, suit or proceeding, (ii) if such a quorum is not obtainable or, even if obtainable, a quorum of disinterested directors so directs, by independent legal counsel in a written opinion or (iii) by the stockholders.

	(e)		Expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by a director or officer in defending any civil, criminal, administrative or investigative action, suit or proceeding may be paid by the Corporation in advance of the final disposition of such action, suit or proceeding upon receipt of any undertaking by or on behalf of such director or officer to repay such amount if it shall ultimately be determined that he or she is not entitled to be indemnified by the Corporation pursuant to this Section 2. Such expense (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by other employees and

A-3
