AGREEMENT

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and promises contained in this Agreement and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which are hereby acknowledged, and intending to be legally bound by this Agreement, the parties to this Agreement agree as follows:

ARTICLE I

THE MERGER

Section 1.1 The Merger.

(a) Upon the terms and subject to the satisfaction or waiver (to the extent permitted by applicable Law) of the conditions set forth in Article VI (other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing, but subject to the satisfaction or waiver (to the extent permitted by applicable Law) of such conditions at the Closing), as of and at the Effective Time, Merger Subsidiary shall be merged with and into the Company in accordance with the Delaware General Corporation Law (the “DGCL”) whereupon the separate existence of Merger Subsidiary shall cease, and the Company shall be the surviving corporation (the “Surviving Corporation”) as a wholly-owned direct Subsidiary of Parent.

(b) The consummation of the Merger shall take place at a closing (the “Closing”) to be held remotely via electronic transmission of related documentation or similar means, on the fifth (5th) Business Day after the satisfaction or waiver (to the extent permitted by applicable Law) of the conditions set forth in Article VI (other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing, but subject to the satisfaction or waiver (to the extent permitted by applicable Law) of such conditions at the Closing), or at such other location, date and time as Parent and the Company shall mutually agree upon in writing. The date upon which the Closing actually occurs pursuant hereto is referred to herein as the “Closing Date.”

(c) At the Closing, the Company shall file a certificate of merger in requisite and customary form and substance with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware and make all other filings or recordings required by the DGCL in connection with the Merger. The Merger shall become effective at such time as the certificate of merger is duly filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware (or at such later time as may be mutually agreed to by the parties and as specified in the certificate of merger). The time as of which the Merger becomes effective is referred to herein as the “Effective Time.”

(d) From and after the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation shall possess all the rights, powers, privileges and franchises and be subject to all of the obligations, liabilities, restrictions and disabilities of the Company and Merger Subsidiary, all as provided under the DGCL.

Section 1.2 Conversion of Shares of Common Stock. At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any further action on the part of Parent, Merger Subsidiary, the Company or any holder of any shares of Company Common Stock or any shares of capital stock of Parent or Merger Subsidiary:

(a) except as otherwise provided in Section 1.2(b) or Section 1.4, each share of Company Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be cancelled and cease to exist and shall be converted into the right to receive $231.00 in cash, without interest (such amount, as may be adjusted in accordance with Section 1.7, the “Merger Consideration”), and each holder of (i) a certificate formerly representing any such shares of Company Common Stock (each, a “Certificate”) or (ii) any book-entry shares which immediately prior to the Effective Time represented shares of Company Common Stock (each, a “Book-Entry Share”) shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive the Merger Consideration in accordance with this Article I;

(b) each share of Company Common Stock held by the Company as treasury stock or owned by Parent, Merger Subsidiary or any other Subsidiary of Parent or any Company Subsidiary (other than, in each case, shares of Company Common Stock that are held in a fiduciary or agent capacity and are beneficially owned by third parties) immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be cancelled and cease to exist, and no payment shall be made with respect thereto;

(c) each share of common stock of Merger Subsidiary outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into and become one share of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Surviving Corporation with the same rights, powers and privileges as the shares so converted and shall constitute the only outstanding shares of capital stock of the Surviving Corporation.

Section 1.3 Surrender and Payment.

(a) Prior to the Effective Time, Parent shall appoint a nationally recognized exchange agent reasonably acceptable to the Company (the “Exchange Agent”) for the purpose of paying the Merger Consideration as provided in this Article I. At or prior to the Effective Time, Parent shall deposit with (or shall cause to be deposited with) the Exchange Agent cash sufficient to pay the full Merger Consideration as provided in this Article I in respect of shares of Company Common Stock (the “Exchange Fund”). If, for any reason (including losses) the Exchange Fund is inadequate to pay the Merger Consideration as provided in this Article I in respect of the shares of Company Common Stock, Parent shall take all steps necessary to enable or cause the Surviving Corporation promptly to deposit with the Exchange Agent additional cash sufficient to pay all such amounts, and Parent and the Surviving Corporation shall in any event be liable for the timely payment thereof. All cash deposited with the Exchange Agent shall only be used for the purposes provided in this Agreement. Any income from investment of the Exchange Fund will be payable to the Surviving Corporation. Promptly after the Effective Time (but in no event later than five (5) Business Days after the Effective Time), Parent shall cause the Exchange Agent to send to each holder of shares of Company Common Stock as of immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than the Company, Parent, Merger Subsidiary or any Company Subsidiary or Parent) a letter of transmittal, in form and substance reasonably approved by the Company prior to the Effective Time, and instructions for use in such exchange (which shall specify that the delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title shall pass, only upon delivery of the Certificates or transfer of the Book-Entry Shares to the Exchange Agent).

(b) Each holder of shares of Company Common Stock that have been converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration shall be entitled to receive the Merger Consideration in respect of such holder’s shares of Company Common Stock represented by a Certificate or Book-Entry Share upon (i) surrender to the Exchange Agent of a Certificate, together with a duly completed and validly executed letter of transmittal and such other documents as may reasonably be requested by the Exchange Agent, or (ii) receipt of an “agent’s message” by the Exchange Agent (or such other evidence, if any, of transfer as the Exchange Agent may reasonably request) in the case of Book-Entry Shares. Until the Merger Consideration in respect of a given Certificate or Book-Entry Share has been paid, such Certificate or Book-Entry Share shall represent after the Effective Time for all purposes only the right to receive such Merger Consideration. No interest will be paid or accrue on any Merger Consideration payable upon the surrender or transfer of any Certificate or Book-Entry Share.

(c) If any portion of the Merger Consideration is to be paid to a Person other than the Person in whose name a transferred share of Company Common Stock is registered, it shall be a condition to such payment that (i) such share of Company Common Stock must be properly transferred and (ii) the Person requesting such payment shall pay in advance to the Exchange Agent any transfer or other Taxes required as a result of such payment to a Person other than the registered holder of such share of Company Common Stock or establish to the satisfaction of the Exchange Agent that such Tax has been paid or is not payable.

(d) At or after the Effective Time, the transfer books of the Company shall be closed and thereafter there shall be no further registration of transfers of shares of Company Common Stock. If, after the Effective Time, shares of Company Common Stock are presented to the Surviving Corporation or the Exchange Agent, they shall be cancelled and exchanged for the Merger Consideration provided for, and in accordance with the procedures set forth, in this Article I.

(e) Any portion of the Merger Consideration made available to the Exchange Agent pursuant to Section 1.3(a) that remains unclaimed by the holders of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares one year after the Effective Time shall be returned to Parent, upon demand, and any such holder who has not exchanged shares of Company Common Stock for the Merger Consideration in accordance with this Section 1.3 prior to that time shall thereafter look only to Parent for payment of the Merger Consideration, in respect of such shares without any interest thereon. Notwithstanding the foregoing, none of Parent, the Surviving Corporation or the Exchange Agent shall be liable to any holder of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares for any amounts paid to a public official pursuant to applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Laws. Any amounts remaining unclaimed by holders of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares immediately prior to such time when such amounts would otherwise escheat to or become property of any Governmental Authority shall become, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, the property of Parent free and clear of any claims or interest of any Person previously entitled thereto.

(f) The agreement with the Exchange Agent shall provide that the Exchange Agent shall invest any cash included in the Exchange Fund as directed by Parent or, after the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation; provided that (i) no such investment (including any losses thereon) shall relieve Parent or the Exchange Agent from making the payments required by this Article I, (ii) no such investment shall have maturities that could prevent or delay payments to be made pursuant to this Agreement and (iii) all such investments shall be in short-term obligations of the United States of America with maturities of no more than thirty (30) days or guaranteed by the United States of America and backed by the full faith and credit of the United States of America. Any interest or income produced by such investments will be payable to the Surviving Corporation or Parent, as directed by ▇▇▇▇▇▇. To the extent that (A) there are any losses with respect to any investments of the Exchange Fund; (B) the Exchange Fund diminishes for any reason below the level required for the Exchange Agent to promptly pay the cash amounts contemplated by this Article I; or (C) all or any portion of the Exchange Fund is unavailable for Parent (or the Exchange Agent on behalf of Parent) to promptly pay the cash amounts contemplated by this Article I for any reason, Parent shall, or shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, promptly replace or restore the amount of cash in the Exchange Fund so as to ensure that the Exchange Fund is at all times fully available for distribution and maintained at a level sufficient for the Exchange Agent to make the payments contemplated by this Article I.

(g) Any portion of the Merger Consideration made available to the Exchange Agent in respect of any Dissenting Shares shall be returned to Parent, upon demand.

(h) 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 (including a customary indemnity in respect thereof), the Exchange Agent shall issue, in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate, the Merger Consideration to be paid in respect of the shares of Company Common Stock formerly represented by such Certificate as contemplated under this Article I.

Section 1.4 Dissenting Shares. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, shares of Company Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than shares of Company Common Stock cancelled in accordance with Section 1.2(b)) and held by a holder who has not voted in favor of adoption of this Agreement or consented thereto in writing and who has properly exercised appraisal rights of such shares in accordance with the DGCL (such shares being referred to collectively as the “Dissenting Shares” until such time as such holder fails to perfect, withdraws or otherwise loses such holder’s appraisal rights under the DGCL with respect to such shares) shall not be converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration. At the Effective Time, all Dissenting Shares shall no longer be outstanding and shall be cancelled and cease to exist, and each holder of Dissenting Shares shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto except such rights as are granted by the DGCL to a holder of Dissenting Shares; provided, however, that if, after the Effective Time, such holder fails to perfect, withdraws or

otherwise loses such holder’s right to appraisal pursuant to the DGCL, such shares of Company Common Stock shall be treated as if they had been converted as of the Effective Time into the right to receive the Merger Consideration in accordance with Section 1.2(a), without interest thereon, upon surrender of such Certificate formerly representing such share or transfer of such Book-Entry Share, as the case may be, in compliance with Section 1.3. The Company shall provide Parent prompt written notice of any demands received by the Company for appraisal of shares of Company Common 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 Parent shall have the opportunity and right to participate in and control all negotiations and proceedings with respect to such demands under the DGCL, in all cases consistent with the obligations of the Company thereunder. Except with the prior written consent of Parent, the Company shall not make any payment with respect to, or offer to settle or settle, any such demands. From and after the Effective Time, a holder of Dissenting Shares shall not be entitled to exercise any of the voting rights or other rights of an equity owner of the Surviving Corporation or of a stockholder of Parent.

Section 1.5 Company Equity Awards.

(a) Company RSUs.

(i) Company Accelerated RSUs. As of the Effective Time, and conditioned upon the occurrence of the Effective Time, and without any action on the part of any holder of Company RSUs, each Company RSU which is outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time that is (A) vested but not yet settled as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, (B) by its terms becomes vested in all respects as a result of the occurrence of the Closing or (C) is held by a non-employee member of the Company Board or a member of the Technical Advisory Board as of immediately prior to the Effective Time (collectively, the “Company Accelerated RSUs”), (1) shall, to the extent not vested, become fully vested, and (2) whether payable in cash or shares of Company Common Stock, shall be cancelled, with the former holder of such cancelled Company Accelerated RSU becoming entitled to receive an amount in cash, without interest, equal to the product of (x) the Merger Consideration multiplied by (y) the applicable number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to such Company Accelerated RSU (the “Company Accelerated RSU Merger Consideration”). Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation or its applicable employing Subsidiary to pay the Company Accelerated RSU Merger Consideration, without interest thereon and subject to deduction for any required withholding as contemplated in Section 1.6, promptly after the Closing Date (but in no event later than five (5) Business Days after the Closing Date).

(ii) Converted RSUs. As of the Effective Time, and conditioned upon the occurrence of the Effective Time, and without any action on the part of any holder of Company RSUs, each Company RSU which is outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time other than a Company Accelerated RSU (each, a “Converted RSU”) shall be assumed by Parent and converted into a restricted stock unit award denominated in shares of Parent Common Stock. Each Converted RSU shall continue to have and be subject to the same terms and conditions as were applicable to such Company RSU immediately before the Effective Time (including vesting conditions and dividend equivalent rights), except that: (A) each Converted RSU shall cover that number of shares of Parent Common Stock equal to the product (rounded down to the nearest whole number) of (1) the number of shares of Company Common Stock underlying such Company RSU and (2) the Conversion Ratio; and (B) each Converted RSU shall be subject to such terms and conditions that become operative and applicable pursuant to its terms in connection with the Closing.

(b) Company PSUs. Neither the Surviving Corporation nor Parent shall assume any Company PSU or substitute for any Company PSU any similar award for Surviving Corporation or Parent stock, in connection with the Merger or the other Transactions. As of immediately prior to the Effective

Time, and conditioned upon the occurrence of the Effective Time, and without any action on the part of any holder of Company PSUs, each Company PSU (i) shall, to the extent not vested, become fully vested; provided that to the extent that such award is subject to performance conditions, any performance conditions shall be deemed to have been satisfied at the level of performance as set forth in Section 1.5(b) of the Company Disclosure Schedules and (ii) shall be cancelled and converted into the right to receive an amount in cash, without interest, equal to the product of (A) the Merger Consideration multiplied by (B) the applicable number of Earned Units subject to such Company PSU (the “Company PSU Merger Consideration”). Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation or its applicable employing Subsidiary to pay the Company PSU Merger Consideration, without interest thereon and subject to deduction for any required withholding as contemplated in Section 1.6, promptly after the Closing Date (but in no event later than five (5) Business Days after the Closing Date).

(c) The Company Board (or, if appropriate, any committee thereof administering the Stock Plan) and the Company, as applicable, shall take such actions as are necessary to approve and effectuate the foregoing provisions of this Section 1.5, including making any determinations and/or resolutions of the Company Board or a committee thereof or any administrator of a Stock Plan as may be necessary; provided, however, that such actions shall not include the obligation to seek any consent, acknowledgment, representation, covenant or release from any holder of any Company Equity Award.

(d) To the extent not approved on or prior to the Agreement Date, as soon as practicable following the Agreement Date, the Company Board (or, if applicable, any committee thereof administering the Company ESPP) shall adopt such resolutions or take such other necessary actions to provide that, (i) with respect to any outstanding Main Offering Period(s) (as used herein, “Main Offering Period” shall be inclusive of any Sub-Offering Periods thereunder, as each such term is defined in the Company ESPP) under the Company ESPP as of the Agreement Date, no participant in the Company ESPP may increase the percentage amount of his or her payroll deduction election in effect on the Agreement Date for such Main Offering Period and no new participants may participate in such Main Offering Period; (ii) no new Main Offering Period shall be commenced under the Company ESPP on or after the Agreement Date; (iii) any such Main Offering Period under the Company ESPP that does not end prior to the Effective Time shall terminate and a Purchase Date (as such term is defined in the Company ESPP) shall occur under the Company ESPP on the applicable date determined by the Company Board (or, if applicable, any committee thereof administering the Company ESPP or its designee) that occurs prior to the Effective Time with respect to such Main Offering Period, in which case any shares of Company Common Stock purchased pursuant to such Main Offering Period shall be treated the same as all other shares of Company Common Stock in accordance with Section 1.2(a); and (iv) immediately prior to, and subject to the occurrence of the Effective Time, the Company ESPP shall terminate.

Section 1.6 Withholding Rights. Notwithstanding any provision contained herein to the contrary, each of the Company, Exchange Agent, Surviving Corporation, Parent and their respective Affiliates shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any amounts otherwise payable to any Person pursuant to this Agreement such amounts as it is required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under any provision of Tax Law. If the Company, Exchange Agent, Surviving Corporation, Parent or any of their respective Affiliates, as the case may be, so withholds amounts and properly pays such amounts over to a Governmental Authority, such amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the holder of shares of Company Common Stock, Company RSUs, or Company PSUs as applicable, in respect of which the Company, Exchange Agent, Surviving Corporation, Parent or any of their respective Affiliates, as the case may be, made such deduction and withholding.

Section 1.7 Adjustments to Merger Consideration. The Merger Consideration 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), reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification,

combination, merger, issuer tender offer, exchange of shares or other like change with respect to Company Common Stock occurring on or after the Agreement Date and prior to the Effective Time, and such adjustment to the Merger Consideration shall provide to the holders of Company Common Stock the same economic effect as contemplated by this Agreement prior to such action and shall, as so adjusted from and after the date of such event, be the Merger Consideration; provided, however, that nothing in this Section 1.7 shall be construed to permit the Company to take any action with respect to the Company Common Stock that is prohibited by the terms of this Agreement, including Section 5.2.

ARTICLE II

Section 2.1 Certificate of Incorporation. At the Effective Time, the certificate of incorporation of Merger Subsidiary as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be the certificate of incorporation of the Surviving Corporation (except that all references to the name of Merger Subsidiary therein shall be modified to refer to the name of the Company), until thereafter amended in accordance with the DGCL and such certificate of incorporation; provided that, subject to Section 5.9, the certificate of incorporation of the Surviving Corporation shall contain provisions no less favorable with respect to exculpation, indemnification of, and advancement of expenses to the Indemnified Persons for periods at or prior to the Effective Time than are currently set forth in the certificate of incorporation of the Company.

Except as set forth in (i) the reports, schedules, forms, registration statements, definitive proxy statements and other documents (including exhibits and all information incorporated by reference) filed or furnished by the Company with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on or after January 1, 2024 and prior to the Agreement Date (collectively, the “Company SEC Reports”) (excluding, in each case, any disclosures contained (other than those disclosures to the extent related to specific historical events or circumstances affecting the Company and not to the extent related to any forward-looking events or circumstances) under the captions “Risk Factors,” “Cautionary Statement,” “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk” and any other disclosures contained therein

to the extent they are predictive, cautionary or forward-looking in nature) or (ii) the Company Disclosure Schedules (each section of which qualifies the correspondingly numbered representation and warranty or covenant to the extent specified therein; provided that any disclosure set forth with respect to any particular Section shall be deemed to be disclosed in reference to any other Section if its relevance to such other Section is reasonably apparent on its face) delivered by the Company to Parent in connection with the execution of this Agreement (the “Company Disclosure Schedules”), the Company hereby represents and warrants to Parent and Merger Subsidiary as follows:

Section 3.1 Organization. Each of the Company and the Subsidiaries of the Company (the “Company Subsidiaries”) is a corporation, limited liability company, limited partnership or other legal entity duly organized, validly existing and, where applicable, in good standing under the Laws of the jurisdiction of its organization (to the extent the “good standing” concept is applicable in the case of any jurisdiction outside the United States), except where the failure to be so organized, existing or in good standing would not reasonably be expected to have a Company Material Adverse Effect. Each of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries has all requisite corporate or similar power and authority to enable it to own, operate and lease its properties and to carry on its business as now conducted, except for such power or authority, the lack of which would not reasonably be expected to have a Company Material Adverse Effect. Complete copies of the certificate of incorporation and bylaws of the Company are incorporated by reference as exhibits to the Company SEC Reports (the “Company Charter Documents”). The Company is not in violation of the Company Charter Documents. No Company Subsidiary is in violation of any of its equivalent organizational documents, except where such violation would not have or reasonably be expected to have a Company Material Adverse Effect.

Section 3.2 Capitalization.

(a) The authorized capital stock of the Company consists of (i) 250,000,000 shares of Company Common Stock and (ii) 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Company Preferred Stock”). As of the close of business on February 2, 2026 (the “Capitalization Date”): (A) 32,955,929 shares of Company Common Stock were issued and outstanding; (B) no shares of Company Preferred Stock were issued or outstanding; (C) no shares of Company Common Stock were held by the Company in its treasury; (D) 1,128,257 shares of Company Common Stock were subject to issuance pursuant to outstanding Company RSUs; (E) 447,780 shares of Company Common Stock were subject to issuance pursuant to outstanding Company PSUs (assuming all applicable performance conditions with respect to such Company PSUs are satisfied at maximum levels); (F) 1,156,187 shares of Company Common Stock were reserved for the future grant of Company Equity Awards under the Stock Plan (excluding shares reserved for issuance upon settlement of the outstanding Company RSUs); and (G) 657,539 shares of Company Common Stock were reserved for future issuance under the Company ESPP. Such issued and outstanding shares of Company Common Stock have been, and all shares that may be issued pursuant to any Stock Plan, the Company ESPP, or as contemplated or permitted by this Agreement will be, when issued in accordance with the respective terms thereof, duly authorized and validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and free of preemptive rights. As of the Agreement Date, there are no outstanding contractual obligations of the Company of any kind to redeem, purchase or otherwise acquire any Equity Interests of the Company. Other than the Company Common Stock, as of the Agreement Date, there are no outstanding bonds, debentures, notes or other Indebtedness or securities of the Company having the right to vote (or, other than the outstanding Company Equity Awards, convertible into, or exchangeable for, securities having the right to vote) on any matters on which stockholders of the Company may vote. As of the Agreement Date, neither the Company nor any Company Subsidiary is a party to any voting agreement with respect to any of its Equity Interests, other than as may be set forth in the organizational documents of any wholly-owned Company Subsidiary. There are no accrued or authorized and unpaid dividends with respect to any shares of Company Common Stock as of the Agreement Date.

(b) Exceptions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, at any time prior to the time the Company Stockholder Approval is obtained, the Company and its Representatives may (i) provide information in response to a request therefor by a Person who has made an Acquisition Proposal after the execution of this Agreement if the Company did not violate Section 5.3(a) in any material respect with respect to such Person or Acquisition Proposal, and entered into with such Person a confidentiality agreement executed by such Person and the Company which (A) is on terms that, taken as a whole, are not materially less restrictive to the other party than those contained in the Confidentiality Agreement (it being understood that such confidentiality agreement need not contain a standstill provision or otherwise prohibit the making, or amendment, of an Acquisition Proposal) and (B) does not contain any provisions that prohibit the Company from complying with its obligations pursuant to this Section 5.3 (any confidentiality agreement satisfying the criteria of this clause (i) being an “Acceptable Confidentiality Agreement”), and promptly (and in any event within thirty-six (36) hours thereafter) makes available to Parent any non-public information concerning the Company or the Company Subsidiaries that the Company provides to any such Person that was not previously made available to Parent; (ii) engage or participate in any discussions or negotiations with any Person who has made such an Acquisition Proposal; or (iii) after having complied with Section 5.3(e), authorize, adopt, approve, recommend or otherwise declare advisable or execute or enter into or propose to authorize, adopt, approve, recommend or declare advisable (publicly or otherwise) such an Acquisition Proposal, if and only to the extent that, (A) prior to taking any action described in any of clauses (i) or (ii) above, the Company Board determines in good faith (after consultation with its financial advisor and outside legal counsel) based on the information then available that (x) such Acquisition Proposal either constitutes a Superior Proposal or is reasonably likely to result in a Superior Proposal and (y) the failure to take any such action would be reasonably likely to be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under applicable Law, and (B) prior to taking any action described in the foregoing clause (iii) above, the Company Board determines in good faith (after consultation with its financial advisor and outside legal counsel) that such Acquisition Proposal is a Superior Proposal.

(c) Notice of Acquisition Proposals.

conditions of such Acquisition Proposal (including, if applicable, unredacted copies of any written inquiries, proposals or offers, including proposed agreements).

(ii) cause or permit the Company or any Company Subsidiary to enter into an Alternative Acquisition Agreement (other than any Acceptable Confidentiality Agreement entered into in accordance with Section 5.3(b)) relating to any Acquisition Proposal.

(e) Change of Recommendation / Superior Proposal Termination. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, (i) at any time prior to the time the Company Stockholder Approval is obtained, the Company Board may make a Change of Recommendation (A) with respect to an Acquisition Proposal that did not arise from a violation in any material respect of Section 5.3(a) and which the Company Board has determined in good faith (after consultation with its financial advisor and outside legal counsel) constitutes a Superior Proposal or (B) other than in connection with an Acquisition Proposal, in response to a Change occurring after the Agreement Date that was not known or reasonably foreseeable by the Company Board as of the Agreement Date, or if known or reasonably foreseeable by the Company Board as of the Agreement Date, the consequences of which were unknown or not reasonably foreseeable by the Company Board as of the Agreement Date (in each case, other than any such Change which relates to (x) any Acquisition Proposal, (y) any change in the Company Common Stock price, in and of itself, or (z) the fact, in and of itself, that the Company exceeds any internal or published projections, estimates or expectations of the Company’s revenue, earnings or other financial performance or results of operations for any period; provided, however, that the exceptions contained in clauses (y) and (z) shall not prevent any of the underlying causes thereof from being taken into account in determining whether an Intervening Event has occurred) (any such Change, an “Intervening Event”), (1) in either case of clauses (A) and (B), only if prior to making such a Change of Recommendation the Company Board determines in good faith (after consultation with its financial advisor and outside legal counsel) that the failure to take such action would

be reasonably likely to be inconsistent with the Company Board’s fiduciary duties under applicable Law and (ii) if the Company Board is permitted to make a Change of Recommendation pursuant to clause (i) with respect to an Acquisition Proposal, the Company may also terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 7.1(f) to enter into an Alternative Acquisition Agreement with respect to the applicable Superior Proposal; provided, however, that neither the Company Board nor the Company shall take any of the foregoing actions unless:

(i) the Company did not violate in any material respect Section 5.3(a) in respect of such Superior Proposal;

(ii) the Company shall have provided prior written notice (a “Determination Notice”) to Parent at least three (3) Business Days in advance (the “Notice Period”) to the effect that the Company Board intends to take such action and specifying in reasonable detail the circumstances giving rise to such proposed action, including, in the case such action is proposed to be taken in connection with an Acquisition Proposal, the information specified by Section 5.3(c) with respect to such Acquisition Proposal (it being understood and agreed that the delivery of a Determination Notice shall not, in and of itself, be deemed a Change of Recommendation);

(iii) the Company shall have during the Notice Period negotiated with Parent and its Representatives in good faith (to the extent Parent desires to negotiate) to make such adjustments to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the other documents contemplated hereby so that with respect to (A) an Intervening Event, the Company Board no longer determines in good faith (after consultation with its outside legal counsel) that the failure to make a Change of Recommendation in response to such Intervening Event would be reasonably likely to be inconsistent with the Company Board’s fiduciary duties under applicable Law, or (B) an Acquisition Proposal, such Acquisition Proposal ceases to constitute a Superior Proposal and the need to effect a Change of Recommendation or terminate this Agreement is obviated; provided, however, that in the event of any material revision, update or supplement to the terms of such Superior Proposal, then in each case the Company shall be required to deliver a new Determination Notice to Parent and to comply with the requirements of Section 5.3(e)(ii) and this Section 5.3(e)(iii) with respect to such new Determination Notice and the revised, updated or supplemented Superior Proposal contemplated thereby (it being understood that the “Notice Period” in respect of such new Determination Notice will be two (2) Business Days instead of three (3) Business Days);

(iv) at or following the end of such applicable Notice Period, the Company Board shall have determined in good faith (after consultation with its financial advisor and outside legal counsel) based on the information then available that with respect to any such action to be taken in connection with (A) such Acquisition Proposal, such Acquisition Proposal continues to constitute a Superior Proposal, or (B) an Intervening Event, a failure of the Company Board to make a Change of Recommendation in response to such Intervening Event would be reasonably likely to be inconsistent with the Company Board’s fiduciary duties under applicable Law, in each case, taking into account any revisions to this Agreement and the other documents contemplated hereby made or proposed in writing by Parent prior to the time of such determination pursuant to clause (iii) above; and

(v) solely in the event of a termination of this Agreement to enter into an Alternative Acquisition Agreement with respect to such Superior Proposal, the Company shall have validly terminated this Agreement in accordance with Section 7.1(f) (including with respect to complying with its obligation to pay the Company Termination Fee in accordance thereto).

(f) Certain Permitted Disclosure. Nothing contained in this Section 5.3 shall be deemed to prohibit the Company or the Company Board from (i) complying with its disclosure obligations under applicable Law with regard to an Acquisition Proposal, including taking and disclosing to the

Company’s stockholders a position contemplated by Rule 14d-9 or Rule 14e-2(a) promulgated under the Exchange Act (or any similar communication to the Company’s stockholders), or (ii) making any “stop-look-and-listen” communication to the Company’s stockholders pursuant to Rule 14d-9(f) under the Exchange Act (or any similar communications to the Company’s stockholders); provided, however, that the Company Board shall not make a Change of Recommendation except in accordance with Section 5.3(e).

(g) Existing Discussions. Subject to Section 5.3(b) and Section 5.3(e), upon execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Company agrees that it will (i) cease and cause to be terminated any activities, discussions or negotiations with any parties conducted with respect to any Acquisition Proposal, (ii) cease providing any information to any such Person or its Representatives, and (iii) terminate all access granted to any such Person and its Representatives to any physical or electronic data room. In addition, as promptly as practicable following the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Company will request the prompt return or destruction of all non-public information concerning the Company and Company Subsidiaries theretofore furnished to any Person with whom a confidentiality agreement was entered into since November 1, 2025 (and which remains in effect) in connection with its consideration of an Acquisition Proposal.

(a) The Company shall prepare and file with the SEC, as promptly as reasonably practicable, and in any event no later than twenty-five (25) Business Days after the Agreement Date, a proxy statement in preliminary form relating to the Stockholders Meeting (such proxy statement, including any amendment or supplement thereto, the “Proxy Statement”) and, subject to Section 5.3, shall include the Company Board Recommendation in the Proxy Statement. Each of Parent and the Company shall provide the other with the information contemplated by Section 5.6(b) and shall otherwise reasonably assist and cooperate with the other in connection with any of the actions contemplated by this Section 5.4, including the preparation, filing and distribution of the Proxy Statement and the resolution of any comments in respect thereof received from the SEC.

Section 5.5 Stockholders Meeting. Subject to Section 5.4(a), the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to take, in accordance with applicable Law and the Company Charter Documents, all action necessary to convene a meeting of the stockholders of the Company Common Stock (the “Stockholders Meeting”) to consider and vote upon the adoption of this Agreement as promptly as reasonably practicable following the Agreement Date (but in any event, no later than thirty-five (35) days following the mailing of the Proxy Statement to the Company’s stockholders). Unless the Company Board shall have effected a Change of Recommendation, the Company shall use reasonable best efforts to solicit proxies in favor of the adoption of this Agreement. Following the mailing of the Proxy Statement pursuant to Section 5.4, the date of the Stockholders Meeting may not be changed, and the Stockholders Meeting may not otherwise be adjourned or postponed, without the prior written consent of Parent (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) or as required by applicable Law; provided, however, that the Company may, without the prior written consent of Parent, adjourn, recess or postpone the Stockholders Meeting if (a) as of the time for which the Stockholders Meeting is originally scheduled (as set forth in the Proxy Statement), there are insufficient shares of Company Common Stock represented or voted (either in person or by proxy) to constitute a quorum or necessary to obtain the Company Stockholder Approval (provided that, the Company may not, without the prior written consent of Parent (not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), adjourn or postpone the Stockholders Meeting more than five (5) Business Days on any single occasion), (b) the Company Board has determined, after consultation with the Company’s outside legal counsel, that it is necessary to adjourn or postpone the Stockholders Meeting to ensure that any required supplement or amendment to the Proxy Statement is delivered, or (c) to the extent that the Company Board has determined, after consultation with the Company’s outside legal counsel, such adjournment or postponement of the Stockholders Meeting is required by applicable Law; provided, that, in each case of clauses (a)-(c), without the prior written consent of Parent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), the Company shall not postpone or adjourn the Stockholders Meeting by more than twenty (20) days in the aggregate.

Nothing in this Agreement shall require the Company or the Company Subsidiaries to take or agree to take any action with respect to its assets, business or operations unless the effectiveness of such agreement or action is conditioned upon the Closing. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither Parent nor the Company may extend any waiting period, withdraw any filing or enter into any agreement or understanding with any Governmental Authority without the prior written consent of the other party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

(b) Information. Subject to applicable Laws, the Company and Parent each shall, upon request by the other, furnish the other with all information concerning itself, its respective Subsidiaries, directors, officers and stockholders and such other matters, in each case, as may be reasonably necessary or advisable in connection with the Proxy Statement, the HSR Act, any other applicable Regulatory Laws or any other statement, filing, notice or application made by or on behalf of Parent, Merger Subsidiary, the Company or any of their respective Subsidiaries to any third party and/or any Governmental Authority in connection with the Merger, and shall provide the other party with final copies of any filings made with a Governmental Authority; provided, that in any event the parties hereto may redact information to the extent it is subject to attorney-client privilege, relates to valuation of the Company, or to comply with applicable Laws. To the extent necessary to comply with Law or to protect reasonable confidentiality considerations, the Parties may exchange information hereunder on an outside-counsel-only, or outside-consultant-only, basis.

(c) Status. Subject to applicable Laws and the instructions of any Governmental Authority, the Company and Parent each shall keep the other reasonably apprised of the status of matters relating to completion of the Merger, including promptly furnishing the other with copies of filings, submissions, notices or other substantive communications sent or received by Parent or its Affiliates, Merger Subsidiary, the Company or the Company Subsidiaries, as the case may be, to or from any third party and/or any Governmental Authority with respect to the Transactions.

(d) Regulatory Matters. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, and without limiting the generality of the other undertakings pursuant to this Section 5.6, each of the Company (in the case of Section 5.6(d)(i)) and Parent shall take or cause to be taken (and Parent agrees to cause its controlled Affiliates to take or cause to be taken) the following actions:

(i) the prompt provision to each and every federal, state, local or foreign court or Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over enforcement of any applicable Regulatory Laws (“Government Regulatory Entity”) of non-privileged information and documents requested by any Government Regulatory Entity that are necessary, proper or advisable to permit consummation of the Transactions, including but not limited to promptly complying with any Request for Additional Information issued under the HSR Act by the Federal Trade Commission or Antitrust Division of the U.S. Department of Justice; provided, that each of the Company and Parent may take reasonable steps to negotiate and limit the scope of any such requests;

(ii) (a) any and all steps to avoid the entry of any permanent, preliminary or temporary injunction or other order, decree, decision, determination or judgment that would, or would reasonably be expected to, prevent, enjoin or otherwise prohibit or materially delay the consummation of the Transactions, including by defending through litigation on the merits and appealing any claim asserted in any court, agency or other proceeding by any Person, including any Governmental Authority or third party, seeking to prevent, enjoin or otherwise prohibit or materially delay the consummation of such transactions and (b) the proffer and agreement by Parent of its willingness and agreement to sell, lease, license or otherwise dispose of, or hold separate pending such disposition, and promptly to effect the sale, lease, license, disposal and holding separate of, such assets, rights, product lines, licenses, categories of assets or businesses or other operations, or interests therein, of Parent, its Subsidiaries or controlled Affiliates, or of the Company or any Company Subsidiary (and the entry into agreements with, and submission to orders of, the relevant Government Regulatory Entity giving effect thereto) if such action should be necessary or advisable to, or is requested by any Government Regulatory Entity as a requirement or condition to, satisfy the conditions to the Merger and consummate the Merger and the other Transactions, or if such action would otherwise avoid, prevent, eliminate or remove the actual, anticipated or threatened (x) commencement of any proceeding or (y) issuance of any order, decree, decision, determination, judgment or Law by any Government Regulatory Entity, in each case, that would, or would reasonably be expected to, prevent, enjoin or otherwise prohibit or materially delay the consummation of the Merger or the other Transactions (it being understood that any such action affecting the assets, business or operations of Parent, the Company or any of their respective Subsidiaries shall be contingent upon the occurrence of the Closing). Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, in no event will Parent, its Subsidiaries or any of their respective controlled Affiliates be required to take or agree to take, and neither the Company nor any Person acting on its behalf shall agree to take (or refrain from taking), any action that, individually or in the aggregate, would reasonably be likely to result in (i) a Company Material Adverse Effect or (ii) a material adverse effect on Parent and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole (with Parent and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, deemed for this purpose to be the same size as the Company and the Company Subsidiaries, taken as a whole); and

(iii) in the event that any permanent, preliminary or temporary injunction, decision, order, judgment, determination, decree or Law is entered, issued or enacted, or becomes

reasonably foreseeable to be entered, issued or enacted, in any proceeding, review or inquiry of any kind that would make consummation of the Transactions in accordance with the terms of this Agreement unlawful or that would prevent, enjoin or otherwise prohibit or materially delay the consummation of the Transactions, any and all steps (including the appeal thereof, the posting of a bond or the taking of the steps contemplated by clause (ii) of this paragraph (d)) necessary to resist, vacate, modify, reverse, suspend, prevent, eliminate, avoid or remove such actual, anticipated or threatened injunction, decision, order, judgment, determination, decree or enactment so as to permit such consummation on a schedule as close as possible to that contemplated by this Agreement.

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, neither Parent, the Company nor any of their respective Subsidiaries will be required to agree to the payment of a consent fee, “profit sharing” payment or other consideration (including increased or accelerated payments) or the provision of additional security (including a guaranty) (in each case, other than any filing fees), in connection with the Merger, including in connection with obtaining any consent pursuant to any Company Material Contract, in each case, unless such payment, consideration or security is contingent upon the occurrence of the Closing.

(f) Neither the Company nor Parent shall, and shall each cause their respective controlled Affiliates not to, enter into, agree to enter into, or consummate any Contracts, or any arrangements for an acquisition (by stock purchase, merger, consolidation, purchase of assets, license or otherwise) of any ownership interest, equity interests, assets or rights in or of any Person, in each case, that would reasonably be expected to (i) materially delay or materially increase the likelihood of not obtaining the applicable action, nonaction, waiver, clearance, consent or approval under the HSR Act or any other Regulatory Laws in connection with the Merger or (ii) prevent the consummation of the Merger.

Section 5.7 Stock Exchange De-listing. Prior to the Closing Date, the Company shall cooperate with Parent and use reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions, and do or cause to be done all things, reasonably necessary, proper or advisable on its part under applicable Laws and rules and policies of Nasdaq to enable the delisting by the Surviving Corporation of the Company Common Stock from Nasdaq and the deregistration of the Company Common Stock under the Exchange Act as promptly as practicable after the Effective Time. Parent will use reasonable best efforts to cause the Surviving Corporation to file with the SEC (a) a Form 25 on the Closing Date and (b) a Form 15 on the first (1st) business day that is at least ten (10) calendar days after the date the Form 25 is filed (such period between the Form 25 filing date and the Form 15 filing date, the “Delisting Period”). If the Surviving Corporation is reasonably likely to be required to file any quarterly or annual reports in accordance with the Exchange Act during the Delisting Period, the Company will deliver to Parent at least two (2) Business Days prior to the Closing, a substantially final draft of any such reports reasonably likely to be required to be filed during the Delisting Period (“Post-Closing SEC Reports”).

Section 5.8 Public Announcements. The initial press release regarding this Agreement shall be a joint press release in a form agreed to by the parties hereto. Thereafter, the Company and Parent each shall consult with the other prior to issuing any press releases or otherwise making public statements with respect to this Agreement, the Merger and the other Transactions and shall not issue any such press release or make any such public statement without the prior consent of the other party (which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed); provided, that a party may, without the prior consent of the other party, issue such press release or make such public statement (a) so long as such statements are consistent with previous public statements made in compliance with this Agreement or otherwise agreed to between the Company and Parent or (b) after prior consultation (to the extent practicable in the circumstances) to the extent required by Law or by obligations pursuant to any listing agreement with or rules of any national securities exchange or interdealer quotation service or by the request of any Governmental Authority. None of the limitations set forth in this Section 5.8 shall apply to the disclosure of any information or

communications (i) by the Company regarding an Acquisition Proposal or from and after a Change of Recommendation effected in accordance with Section 5.3, or by Parent in response thereto, or (ii) in connection with any dispute between the parties relating to this Agreement or the Transactions.

Section 5.9 Directors and Officers Exculpation, Indemnification and Insurance.

(a) Existing Agreements and Protections. From and after the Effective Time through the sixth (6^th) anniversary of the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation and Parent shall (and Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation and the Company Subsidiaries to) honor and fulfill in all respects the indemnification, exculpation, and advancement obligations of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries to any of their respective current or former directors and officers and any person who becomes a director or officer of the Company or any of the Company Subsidiaries prior to the Effective Time (the “Indemnified Persons”) for any matters arising out of acts or omissions occurring at or prior to the Effective Time, or matters by reason of an Indemnified Person’s status as such, in each case as provided in the Company Charter Documents, the certificate of incorporation and bylaws (or other similar organizational documents) of the Company Subsidiaries, any prior charter or bylaw provision that may apply under Section 145(f) of the DGCL, and any indemnification or other agreement between any Indemnified Person and the Company or any Company Subsidiary (an “Indemnification Agreement”) as in effect (i) on the Agreement Date or (ii) after the Agreement Date to the extent such Indemnification Agreement is substantially similar and no more restrictive on the Company or any Company Subsidiary than the Indemnification Agreements in effect on the Agreement Date, taken as a whole. In addition, during the period commencing at the Effective Time and ending on the sixth (6th) anniversary of the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation and Parent shall (and Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation and the Company Subsidiaries to) cause the certificate of incorporation and bylaws (and other similar organizational documents) of the Surviving Corporation and the Company Subsidiaries to contain provisions with respect to indemnification, exculpation and the advancement of expenses with respect to any matters arising out of acts or omissions at or prior to the Effective Time, or matters by reason of an Indemnified Person’s service for or status with the Company or any of the Company Subsidiaries, that are at least as favorable to the Indemnified Persons as the indemnification, exculpation and advancement of expenses provisions set forth in the Company Charter Documents, the certificate of incorporation and bylaws (or other similar organizational documents) of the Company Subsidiaries as of the Agreement Date, and any Indemnification Agreement between any Indemnified Person and the Company or any Company Subsidiary, and such provisions shall not be repealed, amended or otherwise modified (whether by operation of Law or otherwise) in any manner adverse to any Indemnified Person except as required by applicable Law.

(b) Indemnification. Without limiting the generality of the provisions of Section 5.9(a), during the period commencing at the Effective Time and ending on the sixth (6th) anniversary of the Effective Time, Parent and Surviving Corporation shall (and Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation and the Company Subsidiaries to) indemnify and hold harmless each Indemnified Person from and against any costs, fees and expenses (including a duty to advance and indemnify for attorneys’ fees and investigation expenses), judgments, fines, losses, claims, damages, liabilities and amounts paid in settlement in connection with any claim, proceeding, investigation or inquiry, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, to the extent such claim, proceeding, investigation or inquiry arises directly or indirectly out of or pertains directly or indirectly to any action or omission or alleged action or omission in such Indemnified Person’s capacity as a director, officer, employee or agent of the Company or any of the Company Subsidiaries or other Affiliates for any matters arising out of acts or omissions occurring, or an Indemnified Person’s status as such, at or prior to the Effective Time; provided, however, that if, at any time prior to the sixth (6th) anniversary of the Effective Time, any Indemnified Person delivers to Parent a written notice asserting a claim for indemnification or advancement under this Section 5.9(b), then the claim asserted in such notice shall survive the sixth (6th) anniversary of the Effective Time until such time as such claim is fully and finally resolved. In the event of any such claim, the Surviving Corporation shall

pay and/or advance all reasonable fees and expenses of any counsel retained by an Indemnified Person promptly after statements therefor are received.

(c) Insurance. Prior to the Effective Time, notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, the Company shall purchase a six-year “tail” prepaid policy on the Company’s current or renewal directors’ and officers’ liability insurance or reasonable replacement insurance policies with insurers at the Company’s sole discretion (“D&O Insurance”); provided, however, that in no event shall Parent or the Surviving Corporation be required to expend more than three hundred percent (300%) of the current annual premium paid by the Company for such policy. The Surviving Corporation shall (and Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to) maintain such “tail” policy in full force and effect and continue to honor their respective obligations thereunder.

(d) Successors and Assigns. If the Surviving Corporation (or Parent) or any of its successors or assigns shall (i) consolidate with or merge into any other Person and shall not be the continuing or surviving corporation or entity of such consolidation or merger, or (ii) transfer all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any Person, then, and in each such case, proper provisions shall be made so that the successors and assigns of the Surviving Corporation (or Parent) shall assume all of the obligations of the Surviving Corporation (or Parent) set forth in this Section 5.9.

(e) No Impairment; Third-Party Beneficiaries. The obligations set forth in this Section 5.9 shall not be terminated, amended or otherwise modified in any manner that adversely affects any Indemnified Person (or any other person who is a beneficiary under the D&O Insurance or the “tail” policy referred to in Section 5.9(c) (and their heirs and representatives)) without the prior written consent of such affected Indemnified Person or other person who is a beneficiary under the D&O Insurance or the “tail” policy referred to in Section 5.9(c) (and their heirs and representatives). Each of the Indemnified Persons or other persons who are beneficiaries under the D&O Insurance or the “tail” policy referred to in Section 5.9(c) (and their heirs and representatives) are intended to be third-party beneficiaries of this Section 5.9, with full rights of enforcement as if a party thereto. The rights of the Indemnified Persons (and other persons who are beneficiaries under the D&O Insurance or the “tail” policy referred to in Section 5.9(c) (and their heirs and representatives)) under this Section 5.9 shall be in addition to, and not in substitution for, any other rights that such persons may have under the Company Charter Documents, the certificate of incorporation and bylaws (or other similar organizational documents) of the Company Subsidiaries, and any Indemnification Agreement between any Indemnified Person and the Company or any Company Subsidiary, or applicable Law (whether at law or in equity).

(f) Joint and Several Obligations. The obligations and liability of the Surviving Corporation, Parent and their respective Subsidiaries under this Section 5.9 shall be joint and several.

(g) Preservation of Other Rights. Nothing in this Agreement is intended to, shall be construed to or shall release, waive or impair any indemnification, advancement, exculpation, or insurance rights of Indemnified Persons, and any such rights are primary rights and not secondary to, limited by, or adversely affected by any Indemnified Person’s rights under any policy of insurance.

Section 5.10 Transaction Litigation. During the Interim Period, the Company shall promptly notify Parent of all Legal Proceedings commenced or threatened in writing against the Company or any of the Company Subsidiaries, in each case, in connection with, arising from or otherwise relating to the Merger or any of the other Transactions (“Transaction Litigation”) (including by providing copies of all pleadings with respect thereto) and thereafter keep Parent reasonably informed with respect to the status thereof. The Company shall (a) give Parent the opportunity (at Parent’s sole expense and subject to a customary joint defense agreement) to participate in the defense, settlement or prosecution of any Transaction Litigation; (b) consult with Parent with respect to the defense, settlement and prosecution of any Transaction Litigation and (c) to

the extent practicable, give Parent the opportunity to review and propose comments with respect to any such filings, pleadings and responses and consider such comments in good faith. Further, the Company may not compromise, settle or come to an arrangement regarding, or agree to compromise, settle or come to an arrangement regarding, any Transaction Litigation unless Parent has consented thereto in writing (which consent will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). For purposes of this Section 5.10, “participate” means that Parent will be kept reasonably apprised of proposed strategy and other significant decisions with respect to the Transaction Litigation by the Company (to the extent that the attorney-client privilege between the Company and its counsel is not undermined or otherwise affected), and Parent may offer comments or suggestions with respect to such Transaction Litigation, but will not be afforded any decision-making power or other authority over such Transaction Litigation except for the settlement or compromise consent set forth above.

Section 5.11 Rule 16b-3. Parent, Merger Subsidiary and the Company shall take all such steps as may be required to cause the Transactions, and any other dispositions of equity securities (including derivative securities) of the Company resulting from the Transaction by each individual who is or will be subject to the reporting requirements of Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act with respect to the Company, to be exempt under Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act.

Section 5.12 Employee Matters.

(a) For purposes of this Section 5.12, (i) the term “Covered Employees” means employees who are employed by the Company or any Company Subsidiary as of immediately prior to the Effective Time; and (ii) the term “Continuation Period” means the period beginning at the Effective Time and ending on the first anniversary of the Effective Time.

(b) During the Continuation Period, Parent shall, or shall cause the Surviving Corporation or any Company Subsidiary to, provide to each Covered Employee for so long as such Covered Employee remains employed by Parent, the Surviving Corporation or any Company Subsidiary during the Continuation Period, (i) compensation (such term to include salary, annual cash bonus opportunities, and commissions) that is no less favorable in the aggregate than the compensation provided to such Covered Employee immediately prior to the Effective Time, (ii) equity or equity-based compensation opportunities that are no less favorable in the aggregate than the equity or equity-based compensation opportunities that are provided to similarly situated employees of Parent, and (iii) benefits, benefit plans, programs, policies and arrangements (including the costs thereof to Company Employee Benefit Plan participants) that are substantially comparable in the aggregate to the benefits (excluding, any defined benefit pension plan or retiree medical benefits) provided to such Covered Employee immediately prior to the Effective Time. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Parent agrees that during the Continuation Period, it will cause each Covered Employee to be provided with severance benefits that are no less favorable than the greater of the severance benefits (x) provided immediately prior to the Closing pursuant to the Company’s severance benefits practices as disclosed in Section 3.9(a) of the Company Disclosure Schedules, or (y) made available to similarly situated employees of Parent or its Affiliates; provided that Parent may condition such payments and benefits upon the execution and non-revocation by the applicable Covered Employee of a commercially standard release of claims in a form reasonably satisfactory to Parent.

(c) In the event any Covered Employee first becomes eligible to participate under any employee benefit plan, program, policy, or arrangement of Parent or the Surviving Corporation or any of their respective Subsidiaries (“Parent Employee Benefit Plan”) following the Effective Time, Parent shall, or shall cause the Surviving Corporation to use commercially reasonable efforts to: (i) waive any preexisting condition exclusions and waiting periods with respect to participation and coverage requirements applicable to any Covered Employee under any Parent Employee Benefit Plan providing medical, dental, or vision benefits to the same extent such limitation would have been waived or satisfied

under the Company Employee Benefit Plan the Covered Employee participated in immediately prior to coverage under the Parent Employee Benefit Plan and (ii) provide each Covered Employee with credit for any copayments and deductibles paid prior to the Covered Employee’s coverage under any Parent Employee Benefit Plan during the calendar year in which such amount was paid, to the same extent such credit was given under the Company Employee Benefit Plan in which the Covered Employee participated immediately prior to coverage under the Parent Employee Benefit Plan, in satisfying any applicable deductible or out-of-pocket requirements under the Parent Employee Benefit Plan.

(d) As of the Effective Time, Parent shall recognize, or shall cause the Surviving Corporation and their respective Subsidiaries to recognize, all service of each Covered Employee prior to the Effective Time, to the Company (or any predecessor entities of the Company or any of the Company Subsidiaries) for all purposes, including vesting, eligibility and vacation and benefit accrual levels (but excluding benefit accrual purposes under any defined benefit pension plan or retiree medical benefits) to the same extent as such Covered Employee was entitled, before the Effective Time, to credit for such service under any similar Company Plan in which such Covered Employee participated immediately prior to the Effective Time. In no event shall anything contained in this Section 5.12(d) result in any duplication of benefits for the same period of service or the funding thereof.

(e) At the request of Parent to be made at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall adopt written resolutions terminating any Company Plans intended to qualify under Section 401(a) or 401(k) of the Code, to be effective no later than the Business Day prior to the Effective Time, drafts of which resolutions shall be provided by the Company to the Parent for Parent’s review and comment at least three (3) Business Days prior to the Effective Time.

(f) As soon as reasonably practicable, but in no event later than sixty (60) Business Days following the Agreement Date, the Company shall provide Parent with copies of preliminary calculations of any “excess parachute payments” with respect to any “disqualified individual,” in each case within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code. At least fifteen (15) Business Days prior to the Closing, the Company shall provide Parent with copies of the updated estimated calculations.

(g) Nothing in this Section 5.12 shall (i) be construed to limit the right of Parent, the Company, or any of the Company Subsidiaries (including, following the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation) to amend or terminate any Company Plan or other employee benefit or compensation plan, program, agreement or arrangement to the extent such amendment or termination is permitted by the terms of the applicable plan, (ii) be construed as an amendment to any Company Plan or other employee benefit or compensation plan, program, agreement or arrangement, or (iii) be construed to require Parent, the Company, or any of the Company Subsidiaries (including, following the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation) to retain the employment of any particular Person for any fixed period of time following the Effective Time.

Section 5.13 Confidentiality. The parties hereto acknowledge that Parent and the Company have previously executed a nondisclosure agreement, dated as of December 4, 2025 (the “Confidentiality Agreement”), which Confidentiality Agreement shall continue in full force and effect in accordance with its terms, except as expressly modified herein. All information subject to the Clean Team Agreement shall remain so subject.

Section 5.14 Obligations of Merger Subsidiary. Parent shall take all action necessary to cause Merger Subsidiary and the Surviving Corporation to perform their respective obligations under this Agreement and to consummate the Merger and the other Transactions upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement. Parent and Merger Subsidiary will be jointly and severally liable for the failure by either of them to perform and discharge any of their respective covenants, agreements and obligations pursuant to and in accordance with this Agreement.

Section 5.15 Parent Vote. Immediately following the execution and delivery of this Agreement, Parent, in its capacity as the sole stockholder of Merger Subsidiary, will execute and deliver to Merger Subsidiary and the Company a written consent approving the Merger in accordance with the DGCL.

Section 5.16 Takeover Statutes. If any “takeover law” is or may become applicable to the Transactions, the Company and the Company Board shall grant such approvals and take such actions as are necessary so that such transactions may be consummated as promptly as practicable on the terms contemplated by this Agreement and otherwise act to eliminate or minimize the effects of such statute or regulation on such transactions.

Section 5.17 Filing of Form S-8. Parent agrees to file on, or as soon as practicable following, the Closing Date a registration statement on Form S-8 (or any successor form) (if available) with respect to any shares of Parent Common Stock issuable with respect to the Converted RSUs and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to maintain the effectiveness of such registration statement or registration statements (and maintain the current status of the prospectus or prospectuses contained therein) for so long as the offer and sale of securities underlying Converted RSUs issuable pursuant to Section 1.5 remains in effect. Parent shall at all times ensure that there will remain a sufficient number of unissued shares of Parent Common Stock to meet its share issuance obligations in connection with the Converted RSUs.

Section 5.18 Treatment of Company Indebtedness. The Company shall deliver all notices and take all other actions required to effectuate and/or facilitate, at or prior to the Effective Time, the termination of all commitments under the Company Credit Agreement, the repayment in full of all obligations outstanding thereunder and the release of all Liens and guarantees securing or supporting such obligations (the “Credit Facility Termination”), including using its reasonable best efforts to deliver to Parent at least five (5) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, a customary draft payoff letter from the administrative agent, acting for the lenders and letter of credit issuers, under the Company Credit Agreement (including credit support arrangements with respect to any then-outstanding letters of credit issued under the Company Credit Facility, and forms of all applicable lien release documentation), which payoff letter shall provide that, upon the payment of the aggregate payoff amount set forth therein, all liens and guarantees supporting the Company Credit Agreement shall be automatically released and terminated without any requirement for any further action by any Person. In no event shall this Section 5.18 require the Company to cause the Credit Facility Termination to be effective unless and until the Effective Time has occurred and Parent has provided or caused to be provided to the Company funds to effect the Credit Facility Termination.

For purposes of this Agreement, “Willful Breach” means a material breach of this Agreement that is a consequence of an intentional act or omission undertaken by the breaching party with the knowledge that the taking of or the omission of taking such act would, or would reasonably be expected to, cause or constitute a breach of this Agreement.

(a) Company Termination Fees.

(i) In the event that this Agreement is terminated pursuant to (A) Section 7.1(b) and following the execution of this Agreement and prior to the Termination Date (as extended pursuant to Section 7.1(b)) an offer or proposal for a Competing Acquisition Transaction is publicly announced or becomes publicly known and is not publicly withdrawn prior to the termination of this Agreement, (B) Section 7.1(c) and following the execution of this Agreement and prior to the time at which a vote is taken on the adoption of this Agreement at the Stockholders Meeting (or an adjournment or postponement thereof) an offer or proposal for a Competing Acquisition Transaction is publicly announced or becomes publicly known and is not publicly withdrawn prior to the Stockholders Meeting, or (C) Section 7.1(g) and following the execution of this Agreement and prior to a material breach by the Company that gives rise to Parent’s termination right pursuant to Section 7.1(g), an offer or proposal for a Competing Acquisition Transaction is publicly announced or becomes publicly known or shall be made or communicated to the Company or the Company Board and is not publicly withdrawn prior to the termination of this Agreement, and in any such case of clauses (A), (B), or (C), within twelve (12) months following the termination of this Agreement, either (x) such Competing Acquisition Transaction is consummated or (y) the Company enters into an Alternative Acquisition Agreement with respect to such Competing Acquisition Transaction, then concurrently with the earlier of the consummation of such Competing Acquisition Transaction or entry into any such Alternative Acquisition Agreement, the Company shall pay to Parent (or its designee) the Company Termination Fee by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account or accounts designated in writing by Parent. “Company Termination Fee” means an amount equal to $259,000,000.

(ii) In the event that this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 7.1(f), then substantially concurrently with (and as a condition to) such termination of this Agreement, the Company shall pay to Parent (or its designee) the Company Termination Fee by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account or accounts designated in writing by Parent.

(iii) In the event that this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 7.1(h), then within two (2) Business Days after demand by Parent (or its designee), the Company shall pay to Parent (or its designee) the Company Termination Fee by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account or accounts designated in writing by Parent.

(iv) The parties hereto acknowledge and hereby agree that in no event shall the Company be required to pay the Company Termination Fee on more than one occasion, whether or not the Company Termination Fee may be payable under more than one provision of this Agreement at the same or at different times and the occurrence of different events.

(b) Parent Termination Fee. If (i) (A) the Company or Parent terminates this Agreement pursuant to Section 7.1(b) or Section 7.1(d) and (B) at the time of such termination, all of the conditions under Article VI have been satisfied or waived other than (1) the conditions set forth in Section 6.1(b) and Section 6.1(c) (solely to the extent such Legal Restraint relates to any Regulatory Law) and (2) any such conditions which by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing, or (ii) the Company terminates this Agreement pursuant to Section 7.1(e) due to Parent’s or Merger Subsidiary’s material breach of Section 5.6 which results in any of the conditions set forth in Section 6.1(b) or Section 6.1(c) (solely to the extent such Legal Restraint relates to any Regulatory Law) being incapable of being satisfied by the Termination Date, then Parent shall pay to the Company a fee equal to $499,000,000 (the “Parent Termination Fee”) by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account or accounts designated in writing by the Company, with such payment to be made (x) in the case of Parent’s termination of this Agreement, prior to or concurrently with, and as a condition to, such termination, or (y) in the case of the Company’s termination of this Agreement, within two (2) Business Days of such termination.

(c) Recovery. Parent, Merger Subsidiary and the Company hereby acknowledge and agree that the covenants set forth in this Section 7.4 are an integral part of this Agreement and the Merger, and that, without these agreements, Parent, Merger Subsidiary and the Company would not have entered into this Agreement. Accordingly, if the Company or Parent fails to promptly pay any amounts due pursuant to Section 7.4 and, in order to obtain such payment, Parent or the Company, as the case may be, commences a Legal Proceeding that results in a judgment against the Company or Parent, as the case may be, for the amount set forth in Section 7.4 or any portion thereof, such non-prevailing party will pay to such other party its reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs) in connection with such Legal Proceeding, together with interest on such amount or portion thereof at the annual rate equal to the prime rate as published in The Wall Street Journal in effect on the date that such payment or portion thereof was required to be made through the date that such payment or portion thereof was actually received, plus 2% per annum, or a lesser rate that is the maximum permitted by applicable Law.

(d) Acknowledgement. Each of the parties acknowledges and agrees that:

(i) the agreements contained in this Section 7.4 are an integral part of this Agreement and the Merger, and that, without these agreements, Parent, Merger Subsidiary and the Company would not have entered into this Agreement;

(ii) the damages resulting from termination of this Agreement under circumstances where a Company Termination Fee or a Parent Termination Fee is payable are uncertain and incapable of accurate calculation and therefore, the amounts payable pursuant to Section 7.4(a) or Section 7.4(b) are not a penalty but rather constitute liquidated damages in a reasonable amount that will compensate Parent or the Company, as the case may be, 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;

(iii) without limiting the rights of specific performance pursuant to Section 8.5, if this Agreement is terminated in accordance with Section 7.1 and Parent is entitled to receive the Company Termination Fee pursuant to Section 7.4(a) or the Company is entitled to receive the Parent Termination Fee pursuant to Section 7.4(b), the Company Termination Fee or the Parent Termination Fee, as applicable,

shall, subject to Section 8.5, and except in the event of fraud or Willful Breach, be the sole and exclusive remedy for monetary damages available to the applicable party and its Affiliates, on the one hand, against the other party and its former, current and future holders of any equity, directors, officers, employees, agents, Affiliates, or other Representatives, on the other hand, for any loss suffered as a result of any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement in this Agreement or the Transactions; and

(iv) for the avoidance of doubt, Parent or the Company, as applicable, may seek specific performance to cause the other party to consummate the Transactions in accordance with Section 8.5 and the payment of the Company Termination Fee or a Parent Termination Fee, as applicable, pursuant to Section 7.4(a) or Section 7.4(b), but in no event shall Parent or the Company, as applicable, be entitled to both (i) specific performance to cause the Company to consummate the Transactions in accordance with Section 8.5 and (ii) the payment of the Company Termination Fee or a Parent Termination Fee, as applicable, pursuant to Section 7.4(a) or Section 7.4(b).

ARTICLE VIII

MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS

Section 8.1 Amendment or Supplement. Subject to applicable Law, this Agreement may be amended by the parties hereto at any time only by execution and delivery of an instrument in writing signed on behalf of each of Parent, Merger Subsidiary and the Company, and any other purported amendment shall be null and void; provided, however, that after the Company Stockholder Approval shall have been obtained, no amendment shall be made to this Agreement that requires the further approval of such stockholders of the Company without such further approval.

Section 8.2 Extension of Time, Waiver, etc. At any time prior to the Effective Time, any party may, subject to applicable Law: (a) waive any inaccuracies in the representations and warranties of any other party hereto; (b) extend the time for the performance of any of the obligations or acts of any other party hereto; or (c) to the extent permitted by applicable Law, waive compliance by the other party with any of the agreements or other covenants contained in this Agreement; provided, however, that after adoption of this Agreement by the holders of Company Common Stock (if applicable), no waiver shall be made which would pursuant to applicable Law require further approval by such holders without obtaining such further approval. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no failure or delay by the Company, Parent or Merger Subsidiary in exercising any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver of rights, nor shall any single or partial exercise of such rights preclude any other or further exercise of such rights or the exercise of any other right hereunder. Any agreement on the part of a party hereto to any such extension or waiver shall be valid only if set forth in an instrument in writing signed and delivered on behalf of such party, and any other purported extension or waiver shall be null and void.

Section 8.3 No Survival. None of the representations, warranties, agreements and covenants in this Agreement or in any instrument delivered pursuant to this Agreement shall survive the Closing. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 8.3 shall not limit the survival of any covenant or agreement of the parties hereto contained in this Agreement which by its terms contemplates performance in whole or in part after the Closing.

Section 8.4 Entire Agreement; No Third-Party Beneficiary. This Agreement, including the exhibits hereto, the Company Disclosure Schedules and the documents and instruments relating to the Merger referred to in this Agreement, including the Confidentiality Agreement and the Clean Team Agreement, constitutes the entire agreement, and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, among the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement, provided, however, the Confidentiality Agreement and the Clean Team Agreement shall not be superseded, shall survive any termination of this Agreement and shall continue in full force and effect until the earlier to occur of (a) the Effective Time and

(b) the date on which the Confidentiality Agreement or the Clean Team Agreement, as applicable, is terminated in accordance with its terms. Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the Company Disclosure Schedules are “facts ascertainable” as that term is used in Section 251(b) of the DGCL, and do not form part of this Agreement but instead operate upon the terms of this Agreement as provided herein.

This Agreement is not intended, and shall not be deemed, to create any agreement of employment with any person, to confer any rights or remedies upon any person other than the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns or to otherwise create any third-party beneficiary hereto, except (i) with respect to the Indemnified Persons who are express third-party beneficiaries of Section 5.9, (ii) from and after the Effective Time, the rights of the holders of Company Common Stock and Company Equity Awards to receive the Merger Consideration, the Company Accelerated RSU Merger Consideration, and the Company PSU Merger Consideration payable in accordance with Section 1.3 and Section 1.5, and (iii) prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall have the right, on behalf of the holders of shares of Company Common Stock or Company Equity Awards (each of which are express third-party beneficiaries of this Agreement to the extent required for this provision to be enforceable) to pursue claims for damages (which may include, if proven and as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction, damages based on the loss of the economic benefits of the Merger to holders of shares of Company Common Stock and Company Equity Awards, taking into account the amount of Merger Consideration and the loss of premium offered to such holders) under this Agreement in the event of a Willful Breach of this Agreement by Parent or Merger Subsidiary (provided, that the Company shall have the sole and exclusive right to enforce the rights granted under this clause (iii) as agent for such holders of shares of Company Common Stock and Company Equity Awards (it being agreed that in no event shall any such holder be entitled to directly enforce any rights in the event of such Willful Breach), and any amounts received by the Company in connection therewith may be (x) distributed, in whole or in part, by the Company to the holders of shares of Company Common Stock of record as of any date determined by the Company or (y) retained by the Company for the use and benefit of the Company on behalf of the holders of shares of Company Common Stock and Company Equity Awards in any manner the Company deems fit).

Section 8.5 Applicable Law; Jurisdiction.

(a) THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE DEEMED TO BE MADE AND ALL CLAIMS OR CAUSES OF ACTION (WHETHER IN CONTRACT OR TORT) THAT MAY BE BASED UPON, ARISE OUT OF OR RELATE TO THIS AGREEMENT, OR THE NEGOTIATION, EXECUTION OR PERFORMANCE OF THIS AGREEMENT OR THE MERGER, SHALL BE INTERPRETED, CONSTRUED AND GOVERNED IN ALL RESPECTS BY AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE, REGARDLESS OF THE LAWS THAT MIGHT OTHERWISE GOVERN UNDER APPLICABLE CONFLICTS OF LAW PRINCIPLES. The parties hereto hereby irrevocably submit to the personal jurisdiction of the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware or, if such Court of Chancery shall lack subject matter jurisdiction, the federal courts of the United States of America located in the County of New Castle, Delaware, solely in respect of the interpretation and enforcement of the provisions of (and any claim or cause of action arising under or relating to) this

Agreement and of the documents referred to in this Agreement, and in respect of the Transactions, and hereby waive, and agree not to assert, as a defense in any action, suit or proceeding for the interpretation or enforcement hereof or of any such document, that it is not subject thereto or that such action, suit or proceeding may not be brought or is not maintainable in said courts or that the venue thereof may not be appropriate or that this Agreement or any such document may not be enforced in or by such courts, and the parties hereto irrevocably agree that all claims relating to such action, suit or proceeding shall be heard and determined in such courts. The parties hereto hereby consent to and grant any such court jurisdiction over the person of such parties and, to the extent permitted by Law, over the subject matter of such dispute and agree that mailing of process or other papers in connection with any such action, suit or proceeding in the manner provided in Section 8.8 or in such other manner as may be permitted by Law shall be valid and sufficient service thereof.

(b) EACH PARTY ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT ANY CONTROVERSY WHICH MAY ARISE UNDER THIS AGREEMENT IS LIKELY TO INVOLVE COMPLICATED AND DIFFICULT ISSUES, AND THEREFORE EACH SUCH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW ANY RIGHT SUCH PARTY MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY ACTION, SUIT OR PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS.

(c) The parties hereto agree that irreparable damage for which monetary damages, even if available, would not be an adequate remedy would occur in the event that the parties hereto do not perform the provisions of this Agreement (including any party hereto failing to take such actions as are required of it hereunder in order to consummate this Agreement) in accordance with its specified terms or otherwise breach such provisions. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that: (i) the parties hereto will be entitled, in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity, to an injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief to prevent breaches (or threatened breaches) of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof; (ii) the provisions of Section 7.4 are not intended to and do not adequately compensate the parties hereto for the harm that would result from a breach of this Agreement, and will not be construed to diminish or otherwise impair in any respect any party’s right to an injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief; and (iii) the right to an injunction, specific enforcement and other equitable relief is an integral part of the Transactions and without that right, none of the parties hereto would have entered into this Agreement.

(d) The parties hereto hereby agree 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 any party hereto, 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 any party under this Agreement. Any party hereto seeking an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement will not be required to provide any bond or other security in connection with such injunction or enforcement, and each party hereto irrevocably waives any right that it may have to require the obtaining, furnishing or posting of any such bond or other security. The parties hereto further agree that (i) by seeking the remedies

provided for in this Section 8.5, a party hereto 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 this Agreement has been terminated or in the event that the remedies provided for in this Section 8.5 are not available or otherwise are not granted, and (ii) nothing set forth in this Section 8.5 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 8.5 prior or as a condition to exercising any termination right under Article VII (and pursuing damages after such termination), nor shall the commencement of any Legal Proceeding pursuant to this Section 8.5 or anything set forth in this Section 8.5 restrict or limit any party’s right to terminate this Agreement in accordance with the terms of Article VII or pursue any other remedies under this Agreement that may be available then or thereafter; provided, that under no circumstances will the Company, directly or indirectly, be permitted or entitled to receive both a grant of injunction, specific performance or other equitable remedy to consummate the Closing on the one hand, and payment of any monetary amounts pursuant to this Agreement (including in the Parent Termination Fee), on the other hand.

Section 8.9 Severability. Any term or provision of this Agreement that is invalid or unenforceable in any situation in any jurisdiction shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the remaining terms and provisions of this Agreement or the validity or enforceability of the offending term or provision in any other situation or in any other jurisdiction.

In the event such court does not exercise the power granted to it in the prior sentence, the parties hereto agree to replace such invalid or unenforceable term or provision with a valid and enforceable term or provision that will achieve, to the extent possible, the economic, business and other purposes of such invalid or unenforceable term or provision.
