(a) Capital Stock. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, at the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of Parent, Merger Sub, the Company, or the holders of any of the following securities, the following shall occur:

(i) Owned Company Common Stock. Each share of Company Common Stock owned by Parent, the Company, or any direct or indirect wholly owned Subsidiary of Parent or the Company, in each case immediately prior to the Effective Time, shall be cancelled and extinguished without any conversion thereof or consideration paid therefor.

(ii) Capital Stock of Merger Sub. Each share of common stock, no par value per share, of Merger Sub that is issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into one (1) validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable share of common stock, no par value per share, of the Interim Surviving Corporation, and shall constitute the only outstanding shares of capital stock of the Interim Surviving Corporation. Each certificate evidencing ownership of such shares of common stock of Merger Sub shall thereafter evidence ownership of shares of common stock of the Interim Surviving Corporation.

(iii) Company Common Stock. Each share of Company Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than shares of Company Common Stock owned by Parent, the Company or any direct or indirect wholly owned Subsidiary of Parent or the Company, in each case immediately prior to the Effective Time) shall be cancelled and extinguished, and upon the surrender of (A) certificates representing shares of Company Common Stock (the “Certificates”) and (B) uncertificated shares of Company Common Stock (the “Uncertificated Shares”) in the manner provided in Section 2.8 (or in the case of a lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate, upon delivery of an affidavit (and bond, if required) in the manner provided in Section 2.10), be automatically converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration, without interest thereon, as set forth below:

(1) Each share of Company Common Stock with respect to which an election to receive cash (a “Cash Election”) has been effectively made and not revoked pursuant

to Section 2.7(f)(vi) (each a “Cash Electing Share”) shall be converted into the right to receive the Cash Consideration, subject to adjustment pursuant to Section 2.7(b)).

(2) Each share of Company Common Stock with respect to which an election to receive stock consideration (a “Stock Election”) is properly made and not revoked pursuant Section 2.7(f)(vi) (each a “Stock Electing Share”, and together with the Cash Electing Shares, the “Electing Shares”) shall be converted into the right to receive the Stock Consideration, subject to adjustment pursuant to Section 2.7(c).

(3) Each share of Company Common Stock with respect to which no Cash Election or Stock Election is properly made (or if made, has been revoked) (each, a “Non-Electing Share”) shall be converted into the right to receive the Cash Consideration or the Stock Consideration as determined in accordance with Section 2.7(b) below and subject to adjustment pursuant to Section 2.7(c).

(b) Proration.

(i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, other than Section 2.7(c), a minimum number of shares of Company Common Stock equal to the Minimum Stock Percentage (as defined below) of the shares of Company Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (such number of shares, the “Aggregate Stock Number”) shall be converted into the right to receive the Stock Consideration. The “Minimum Stock Percentage” shall be equal to 42%; provided, however, that if the tax opinion of Parent’s counsel referred to in Section 7.2(g) or the tax opinion of the Company’s counsel referred to in Section 7.3(e) cannot be rendered as a result of the Merger potentially failing to satisfy continuity of interest requirements under applicable federal income tax principles relating to reorganizations under Section 368(a) of the Code (as reasonably determined by such counsel) taking into account the value of a share of Parent Common Stock on the last trading day immediately prior to the Closing Date and on the Closing Date, then the Minimum Stock Percentage shall be increased to the minimum extent necessary to enable such tax opinion or opinions to be rendered (such reduction and increase to be finally calculated and made immediately preceding the Effective Time).

(ii) If the aggregate number of Stock Electing Shares of Company Common Stock (the “Stock Election Number”) is less than or equal to the Minimum Stock Percentage of the Aggregate Stock Number (such difference between the Stock Election Number and the Minimum Stock Percentage of the Aggregate Stock Number, the “Shortfall Number”), then (x) all Stock Electing Shares shall be converted into the right to receive the Stock Consideration and (y) the Cash Electing Shares and Non-Electing Shares shall be treated in the following manner:

(1) If the Shortfall Number is less than or equal to the aggregate number of Non-Electing Shares, then (A) all Cash Electing Shares shall be converted into the right to receive the Cash Consideration and (B) the Non-Electing Shares of each holder of shares of Company Common Stock shall be converted into the right to receive the Stock Consideration in respect of that number of Non-Electing Shares that is equal to the product obtained by multiplying (I) the number of Non-Electing Shares of such holder by (II) a fraction, the numerator of which is the Shortfall Number and the denominator of which is the aggregate number of Non-Electing Shares, with the remaining number of such holder’s Non-Electing Shares being converted into the right to receive the Cash Consideration; and

(2) If the Shortfall Number exceeds the aggregate number of Non-Electing Shares, then (I) all Non-Electing Shares shall be converted into the right to receive the Stock Consideration and (II) a number of Cash Electing Shares of each holder of shares of Company Common Stock shall be converted into the right to receive the Stock Consideration equal to the product obtained by multiplying (I) the number of Cash Electing Shares of such holder by (II) a fraction, the numerator of which is the amount by which the Shortfall Number exceeds the aggregate number of Non-Electing Shares and the denominator of which is the aggregate number of Cash Electing Shares, with the remaining number of such holder’s Cash Electing Shares being converted into the right to receive the Cash Consideration.

(iii) If the Stock Election Number is greater than the Minimum Stock Percentage of the Aggregate Stock Number then all Non-Electing Shares shall be converted into the right to receive the Cash Consideration.

(c) Aggregate Stock Election Cap. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, including Section 2.7(b)(i), if the aggregate Stock Consideration would be greater than 35,000,000 shares of Parent Common Stock (the “Aggregate Stock Election Cap”) then (i) all Non-Electing Shares shall be converted into the right to receive the Cash Consideration, (ii) all Cash Electing Shares shall be converted into the right to receive the Cash Consideration and (iii) all Stock Electing Shares shall be converted into the right to receive an amount equal to the product of (i) the Stock Consideration and (ii) a fraction, the numerator of which is the Aggregate Stock Election Cap and the denominator of which is the aggregate Stock Consideration without giving effect to the Aggregate Stock Election Cap.

(d) Adjustment to Merger Consideration. If, during the period between the date of this Agreement and the Effective Time, any change in the outstanding shares of Company Capital Stock shall occur as a result of any reclassification, recapitalization, stock split (including reverse stock split) or combination, exchange or readjustment of shares, or any stock dividend, or any record date for any such purpose shall be established, the Merger Consideration and any other amounts payable pursuant to this Agreement shall be appropriately adjusted.

(e) Fractional Shares. In lieu of any fractional share of Parent Common Stock that otherwise would be issuable pursuant to the Merger, each holder of shares of Company Common Stock who otherwise would be entitled to receive a fraction of a share of Parent Common Stock pursuant to the Merger will be paid an amount in cash (without interest) equal to (i) such fractional part of a share of Parent Common Stock multiplied by (ii) the Parent Average Closing Price.

(f) Election Procedures.

(i) All elections in accordance with this Section 2.7 shall be made on a form designed for that purpose and mutually acceptable to the Company and Parent (a “Form of Election”) which will be filed as an exhibit to the Form S-4 and mailed to the holders of record of shares of Company Common Stock as of the record date for the Company Shareholders’ Meeting or on such other date as Parent and the Company mutually agree (the “Form of Election Date”). The Form of Election shall be used by each record holder of shares of Company Common Stock (or, in the case of nominee record holders, the beneficial owner through proper instructions and documentation) who wishes to make a Cash Election or a Stock Election or a combination of both for any and all shares of Company Common Stock held by such holder. The Company shall make available one or more Forms of Election as may be reasonably requested by any Person who becomes a holder (or beneficial owner) of shares of Company Common Stock between the Form of Election Date and the close of business on the Business Day prior to the Election Date.

(ii) For elections to be effective, (A) with respect to shares of Company Common Stock represented by Certificates, a Form of Election and a Letter of Transmittal must be properly completed, signed and actually received by the Exchange Agent and accompanied by the Certificates representing all the shares of Company Common Stock as to which such a Form of Election is being made, duly endorsed in blank or otherwise in form acceptable for transfer on the books of the Company (or an affidavit of lost certificate in accordance with Section 2.10), or (B) with respect to shares of Company Common Stock that are held in book-entry form, Parent shall establish procedures for the delivery of such shares, which procedures shall be reasonably acceptable to the Company (any election that satisfies either (A) or (B), an “Election”).

(iii) An Election must be received by the Exchange Agent not later than 5:00 p.m. California time on (A) the date of the Company Shareholders’ Meeting or, (B) if the Closing Date is more than four (4) Business Days following the Company Shareholders’ Meeting, the Business Day immediately preceding the Closing Date (either of (A) or (B), the “Election Date”) in order to be effective. Any shares of Company Common Stock for which the record holder has not, as of 5:00 p.m., California time, on the Election Date, properly submitted a properly completed Form of Election to the Exchange Agent will be deemed to be Non-Electing Shares. After a Cash Election or Stock Election is validly made with respect to any shares of Company Common Stock, no further registration of transfers of such shares shall be made on the stock

transfer books of the Company, unless and until such Cash Election or Stock Election is properly revoked. In addition, all Forms of Election shall automatically be revoked if the Exchange Agent is notified in writing by Parent and the Company that the Merger has been abandoned.

(iv) Parent and the Company shall publicly announce the anticipated Election Date at least five (5) Business Days prior to the anticipated Closing Date. If the Closing Date is delayed to a subsequent date, the Election Date shall be subsequently delayed to a subsequent date, and Parent and the Company shall promptly announce any such delay and, when determined, the rescheduled Election Date.

(v) Subject to the provisions of the agreement entered into with the Exchange Agent, the Exchange Agent shall have the discretion to determine whether Forms of Election have been properly completed, signed, and timely submitted or to disregard defects in forms. Any such determination of Parent or the Exchange Agent shall be conclusive and binding, absent manifest error. Neither Parent nor the Exchange Agent shall be under any obligation to notify any Person of any defect in a Form of Election submitted to the Exchange Agent. Any shares of Company Common Stock relating to which the record holder is deemed to have not submitted a valid Election on or prior to the Election Date shall be deemed to be Non-Electing Shares.

(vi) Any Cash Election or Stock Election may be (A) changed by written notice received by the Exchange Agent prior to 5:00 p.m., California time, on the Election Date, accompanied by a properly completed and signed revised Form of Election or (B) revoked with respect to all or a portion of the shares of Company Common Stock subject thereto by the holder who submitted the applicable Form of Election by written notice received by the Exchange Agent prior to 5:00 p.m., California time, on the Election Date. In addition, Cash Elections and Stock Elections shall automatically be revoked if this Agreement is terminated in accordance with Article VIII. If a Cash Election or Stock Election is revoked with respect to shares of Company Common Stock represented by a Certificate, such Certificate shall promptly be returned to the holder that submitted the same to the Exchange Agent.

(vii) The Exchange Agent shall make all the computations contemplated by this Section 2.7(b), including the determination of the number of Cash Electing Shares, Stock Electing Shares and Non-Electing Shares and, after consultation with Parent and the Company, all such computations will be conclusive and binding on the former holders of shares of the Company Common Stock absent manifest error. The Exchange Agent may, with the agreement of Parent and the Company, make such reasonable rules as are consistent with this Section 2.7 for the implementation of the Elections provided for herein as shall be necessary or desirable to effect fully such Elections.

(g) Company Compensatory Awards. At the Effective Time, each Company Compensatory Award then outstanding under any of the Company Plans shall be treated in accordance with the provisions of Section 6.11.

2.8 Exchange of Certificates.

(a) Exchange Agent. Prior to the Effective Time, Parent shall select a bank or trust company reasonably acceptable to the Company to act as the payment agent for the Merger (the “Exchange Agent”). The Exchange Agent shall also act as the agent for the Company’s shareholders for the purpose of receiving and holding their Certificates and Uncertificated Shares and shall obtain no rights or interests in the shares of Company Common Stock represented thereby.

(b) Exchange Fund. Parent shall deposit (or cause to be deposited) with the Exchange Agent, for payment to the holders of shares of Company Common Stock pursuant to the provisions of this Article II, (i) evidence of Parent Common Stock issuable pursuant to Section 2.7(a) in book-entry form sufficient to issue the aggregate Stock Consideration, (ii) by transfer of immediately available funds, an amount of cash sufficient to pay the aggregate Cash Consideration and (iii) by transfer of immediately available funds, an amount of cash sufficient to make the aggregate payments in lieu of any fractional shares of Parent Common Stock (such amount referenced in clauses (ii) and (iii) together with the evidence of book-entry shares of Parent Common Stock, the “Exchange Fund”).

(c) Payment Procedures. As promptly as practicable following the Effective Time, Parent and Merger Sub shall cause the Exchange Agent to mail to each holder of record (as of immediately prior to the Effective Time) of shares of Non-Electing Shares (i) a letter of transmittal in customary form and containing customary provisions (which shall specify that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title shall pass, only upon proper delivery of the Certificates or transfer of the Uncertificated Shares to the Exchange Agent) (a “Letter of Transmittal”) and (ii) instructions for use in effecting the surrender of the Certificates or transfer of the Uncertificated Shares in exchange for the Merger Consideration payable in respect thereof pursuant to the provisions of this Article II. Each holder of Electing Shares shall have previously completed and delivered to the Exchange Agent a Letter of Transmittal in accordance with Section 2.7(f)(ii) above. 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 the shares of Company Common Stock represented by a Certificate or Uncertificated Share, upon (x) 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 (y) 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 a book-entry transfer of Uncertificated Shares.

Until so surrendered or transferred, as the case may be, each such Certificate or Uncertificated Share shall represent after the Effective Time for all purposes only the right to receive the Merger Consideration payable in respect thereof pursuant to the provisions of this Article II. No interest shall be paid or accrued on the cash payable upon the surrender or transfer of such Certificate or Uncertificated Share.

(d) Transfers of Ownership. If any portion of the Merger Consideration is to be paid to a Person other than the Person in whose name the surrendered Certificate or the transferred Uncertificated Share is registered, it shall be a condition to such payment that (i) either such Certificate shall be properly endorsed or shall otherwise be in proper form for transfer or such Uncertificated Share shall be properly transferred and (ii) the Person requesting such payment shall pay to the Exchange Agent any transfer or other similar Tax required as a result of such payment to a Person other than the registered holder of such Certificate or Uncertificated Share or establish to the satisfaction of the Exchange Agent that such Tax has been paid or is not payable.

(e) Required Withholding. Each of the Exchange Agent, Parent and the Surviving Company shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any amounts payable pursuant to this Agreement such amounts as may be required to be deducted or withheld therefrom under applicable Tax laws. To the extent that such amounts are so deducted or withheld, such amounts (i) shall be remitted by Parent, Merger Sub, the Surviving Company or the Exchange Agent, as the case may be, to the applicable Governmental Entity and (ii) shall be treated for all purposes under this Agreement as having been paid to the Person to whom such amounts would otherwise have been paid.

(f) No Liability. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, none of the Exchange Agent, Parent, the Surviving Company or any other party hereto shall be liable to a holder of shares of Company Common Stock for any amount properly paid to a public official pursuant to any abandoned property, escheat or similar Applicable Law.

2.9 No Further Ownership Rights in Company Common Stock. From and after the Effective Time, all shares of Company Common Stock shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be cancelled, retired and cease to exist, and each holder of a Certificate or Uncertificated Share theretofore representing any shares of Company Common Stock shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive the Merger Consideration payable therefor upon the surrender thereof in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.8. The Merger Consideration paid in accordance with the terms of this Article II shall be deemed to have been paid in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to such shares of Company Common Stock. From and after the Effective Time, there shall be no further registration of transfers on the records of the Surviving Company of shares of Company Common Stock that were issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, other than transfers to reflect, in accordance with customary

settlement procedures, trades effected prior to the Effective Time. If, after the Effective Time, Certificates or Uncertificated Shares are presented to the Surviving Company for any reason, they shall be canceled and exchanged for the Merger Consideration as provided for, and in accordance with the procedures set forth, in this Article II.

2.10 Lost, Stolen or Destroyed Certificates. In the event that any Certificates shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, the Exchange Agent shall issue in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificates, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the holder thereof, the Merger Consideration payable in respect thereof pursuant to Section 2.7; provided, however, as a condition precedent to the payment of such Merger Consideration, the Exchange Agent shall require the owners of such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificates to furnish a bond in form satisfactory to the Exchange Agent, Parent and the Surviving Company as indemnity against any claim that may be made against Parent, the Surviving Company or the Exchange Agent with respect to the Certificates alleged to have been lost, stolen or destroyed. The value of the bond of indemnity shall be calculated by the Exchange Agent, based on the value of lost, stolen or destroyed Certificates.

2.11 Taking of Necessary Action; Further Action. If, at any time after the Effective Time, any further action is necessary or desirable to carry out the purposes of this Agreement and to vest the Surviving Company with full right, title and possession to all assets, property, rights, privileges, powers and franchises of the Company and Merger Sub, the directors and officers of the Surviving Company shall take all such lawful and necessary action on behalf of the Company and Merger Sub.

2.12 Tax Treatment. The Merger is intended to constitute a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code. The parties hereto intend that the First Step Merger and the Second Step Merger will constitute integrated steps in a single “plan of reorganization” within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Sections 1.368-2(g) and 1.368-3, which plan of reorganization the parties adopt by executing this Agreement. Except as specifically set forth in this Agreement, no party hereto shall take any action that would reasonably be expected to cause the Merger to fail to qualify as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code.

(ii) (A) a material fact, event, change, development or set of circumstances occurs or exists after the date of this Agreement with respect to the business, operations, financial condition or results of operations of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (and not relating in any way to (x) an Acquisition Proposal or (y) any fluctuation in the market price or trading volume of the Company Common Stock or Parent Common Stock, in and of itself) that was not known to the Company Board nor reasonably foreseeable by the Company Board as of or prior to the date of this Agreement (such material fact, event, change, development or set of circumstances, an “Intervening Event”) shall have occurred and be continuing, (B) the Company Board determines in good faith (after consultation with outside legal counsel) that the failure to effect such Company Board Recommendation Change would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties to shareholders of the Company under California Law, (C) prior to effecting such Company Board Recommendation Change, the Company shall have (1) given Parent at least four (4) Business Days’ prior written notice of its intention to take such action (which notice shall include a written explanation of the Company Board’s basis and rationale for proposing to effect such Company Board Recommendation Change) and (2) if requested by Parent, negotiated with Parent in good faith during such four (4) Business Day notice period any modifications to the terms of this Agreement proposed by Parent, in its discretion, and (D) Parent shall not have made, within the four (4) Business Day notice period, a written offer or proposal capable of acceptance that the Company Board determines in good faith, after consultation with its financial advisor and its

outside legal counsel, would obviate the need for the Company Board to effect such Company Board Recommendation Change.

(d) The Company shall ensure that any Company Board Recommendation Change (A) does not change or otherwise affect the approval of this Agreement by the Company Board and (B) does not have the effect of causing any Takeover Law to be applicable to this Agreement, the Voting Agreements, the Merger or any of the other transactions contemplated hereby.

(e) Nothing in this Agreement shall prohibit the Company Board from (i) taking and disclosing to shareholders of the Company a position contemplated by Rule 14e-2(a) under the Exchange Act or complying with the provisions of Rule 14d-9 or Item 1012(a) of Regulation M-A under the Exchange Act (including by issuing a “stop, look and listen” statement) or (ii) making any disclosure to the shareholders of the Company if the Company Board determines in good faith, after consultation with outside legal counsel, that the failure to take such action would be inconsistent with Applicable Law (including the Company Board’s fiduciary duties); provided that, with respect to any statement(s) made by the Company Board pursuant to Rule 14e-2(a) under the Exchange Act, Rule 14d-9 under the Exchange Act or Item 1012(a) of Regulation M-A under the Exchange Act or otherwise related to an Acquisition Proposal, it is acknowledged and agreed that any such disclosure, other than a “stop, look and listen” communication of the type contemplated by Section 14d-9(f) of the Exchange Act or any similar communication to shareholders of the Company, shall not be deemed to be a Company Board Recommendation Change if the Company Board expressly publicly reaffirms the Company Board Recommendation in such communication or in connection with such action.

(f) Each of the Company and Parent shall make any necessary filings with respect to the Merger under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that such filings after the date of this Agreement and prior to the Closing Date (and, if amended or superseded by a filing prior to the Closing Date, then on the date of such filing) will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit (or will have omitted) to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. In addition, Parent shall use reasonable best efforts to take all actions required under any applicable federal or state securities or “Blue Sky” Laws in connection with the issuance of shares of Parent Common Stock in the Merger.

Each of Parent and the Company shall promptly (i) cooperate and coordinate with the other in the making of such filings, (ii) supply the other with any information that may be required in order to effectuate such filings, (iii) supply any additional information that reasonably may be required or requested by the FTC, the DOJ or the competition or merger control authorities of any other applicable jurisdiction, and (iv) share equally all filing fees and expenses incurred in connection with filings made in connection with this Section 6.5(b) (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, all fees and expenses payable to any attorneys, accountants or other advisors incurred in connection with this Section 6.5(b), which shall be paid by the party incurring such expenses). Each party hereto shall promptly inform the other party or parties hereto, as the case may be, of any communication from any Governmental Entity regarding any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (including the Merger). If any party hereto or Affiliate thereof receives a request for additional information or documentary material from any such Governmental Entity with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (including the Merger), then such party shall use reasonable best efforts to make, or cause to be made, as soon as reasonably

practicable and after consultation with the other party, an appropriate response in compliance with such request. Subject to Applicable Law, no filing of, or amendment or supplement to, or written correspondence with any Governmental Entity or its staff with respect to such Antitrust Laws shall be made by the Company or Parent without providing the other party a reasonable opportunity to review and comment thereon.

(c) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing provisions of Section 6.5(a), in the event that any Takeover Law is or becomes applicable to this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (including the Merger), the Company, at the direction of the Company Board, shall use reasonable best efforts to ensure that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (including the Merger) may be consummated as promptly as practicable on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, and otherwise to minimize the effect of such statute or regulation on this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby (including the Merger).

In the event that the Company does not provide access to or disclose information to Parent in reliance on the final proviso of the preceding sentence, it shall use reasonable best efforts to communicate such information in a manner that does not result in the violation of any such obligation, Law or Order or the jeopardy of such protections.

The Company shall promptly advise Parent orally and in writing after becoming aware of any Legal Proceeding commenced after the date hereof against the Company or any of its directors by any shareholder of the Company (on their own behalf or on behalf of the Company) relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby (including the Merger) and shall keep Parent reasonably informed regarding any such Legal Proceeding. The Company shall give Parent the opportunity to consult with the Company regarding the defense or settlement of any such shareholder litigation and shall consider Parent’s views with respect to such shareholder litigation and shall not settle any such shareholder litigation without the prior written consent of Parent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

6.9 Confidentiality. Parent, Merger Sub, Merger Sub LLC and the Company hereby acknowledge that Parent and the Company have previously executed a Confidentiality Agreement, dated January 26, 2015 (as amended, the “Confidentiality Agreement”), which shall continue in full force and effect in accordance with its terms; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, effective as of the execution and delivery hereof, the Confidentiality Agreement shall be deemed to be amended so as to permit Parent to make any counteroffer or proposal contemplated by Section 6.2(c) or Section 8.1(e)(ii) (which deemed amendment shall survive any termination of this Agreement in accordance with its terms or otherwise).

6.10 Public Disclosure. Each of the Company and Parent shall not, without the prior written consent of the other (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or

conditioned), issue any press release or otherwise make any public statement with respect to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby (including the Merger), except (a) as may be required by Applicable Law or any listing agreement with a national securities exchange, in which case the Company or Parent, as the case may be, shall make commercially reasonable efforts to consult with the other prior to any such release or public statement and (b) with regard to a Company Board Recommendation Change.

6.11 Company Compensatory Awards.

(a) Company Restricted Stock Units. At the Effective Time, each award of Company Restricted Stock Units (or portion thereof) that is outstanding and unvested immediately prior to the Effective Time (and does not vest as a result of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby) shall, by virtue of the Merger, be assumed by Parent (each, an “Assumed RSU”). The number of shares of Parent Common Stock subject to each Assumed RSU shall be equal to the product of (i) the number of shares of Company Common Stock underlying such unvested Company Restricted Stock Unit award as of immediately prior to the Effective Time multiplied by (ii) the Exchange Ratio (with the resulting number, rounded down to the nearest whole share). Except as otherwise agreed to by Parent and a holder of such Assumed RSUs, such Assumed RSUs will be subject to substantially the same terms and conditions as applied to the related award of Company Restricted Stock Units immediately prior to the Effective Time, including the same vesting schedule applicable thereto. Any Company Restricted Stock Unit (or portion thereof) that is not an Assumed RSU (each, a “Cancelled RSU”) shall, by virtue of the Merger and at the direction of Parent (which is hereby given pursuant to this Agreement), be cancelled and terminated and converted into the right to receive an amount in cash, without interest, with respect to each share of Company Common Stock underlying such Cancelled RSU, equal to the product of the Exchange Ratio multiplied by the Parent Average Closing Price (the “Cancelled RSU Consideration”), except as may otherwise be required by Section 409A of the Code, in which case such Company Restricted Stock Unit shall be treated as an Assumed RSU. The holder of each Cancelled RSU shall receive at the Effective Time from the Company, or as soon as practicable thereafter (but in no even later than the Company’s first full payroll after the Effective Time) from the Surviving Company, an amount in cash equal to the Cancelled RSU Consideration.

(b) Company Options.

(i) At the Effective Time, each Company Option (or portion thereof) that is outstanding and vested as of immediately prior to the Effective Time (or vests as a result of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby) (each, a “Cancelled Option”) shall, by virtue of the Merger and at the direction of Parent (which is hereby given pursuant to this Agreement), be cancelled and terminated and converted into the right to receive an amount in cash, without interest, with respect to each share underlying such Cancelled Option, equal to the excess,

if any, of the product of the Exchange Ratio multiplied by the Parent Average Closing Price, over the per share exercise price of such Cancelled Option (such amount being hereinafter referred to as the “Option Consideration”). The holder of each Cancelled Option shall receive at the Effective Time from the Company, or as soon as practicable thereafter (but in no even later than the Company’s first full payroll after the Effective Time) from the Surviving Company, an amount in cash equal to the Option Consideration. If the exercise price per share of any such Cancelled Option is equal to or greater than the Cash Consideration, such Company Option shall, by direction of Parent (which is hereby given pursuant to this Agreement), be cancelled without any cash payment being made in respect thereof. The payment of Option Consideration to the holder of a Cancelled Option shall be reduced by any income or employment tax withholding required under the Code any Applicable Law or as otherwise agreed by the parties at the time the Company Option was granted.

(ii) At the Effective Time, each Company Option (or portion thereof) that is outstanding and unvested as of immediately prior to the Effective Time (and does not vest as a result of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby) shall be assumed by Parent (each, an “Assumed Option”). Each such Assumed Option shall be subject to substantially the same terms and conditions as applied to the related Company Option immediately prior to the Effective Time, including the vesting schedule applicable thereto, except that (A) the number of shares of Parent Common Stock subject to each Assumed Option shall be equal to the product of (x) the number of shares of Company Common Stock underlying such unvested Assumed Option as of immediately prior to the Effective Time multiplied by (y) the Exchange Ratio (with the resulting number rounded down to the nearest whole share), and (B) the per share exercise price of each Assumed Option shall be equal to the quotient determined by dividing (x) the exercise price per share at which such Assumed Option was exercisable immediately prior to the Effective Time by (y) the Exchange Ratio (with the resulting price per share rounded up to the nearest whole cent). Each Assumed Option so assumed by Parent shall qualify following the Effective Time as an incentive stock option as defined in Section 422 of the Code to the extent permitted under Section 422 of the Code and to the extent such Assumed Option qualified as an incentive stock option prior to the Effective Time, and, further, that the assumption of Assumed Options pursuant to this Section shall be effected in a manner that satisfies the requirements of Sections 409A and 424(a) of the Code and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder, and this Section 6.11(b) will be construed consistent with this intent.

(c) Necessary Actions; Form S-8. The Company shall, at Parent’s direction (which is hereby given pursuant to this Agreement), take all actions necessary to effect the transactions contemplated by this Section 6.11 under all Company Plans and Company Compensatory Awards or any other plan or arrangement of the Company, including delivering all required notices, obtaining all necessary consents, and making any determinations and/or resolutions of the Company Board or a committee thereof. Promptly after the Effective Time (but in no event later than fifteen (15) Business Days following the Effective Time), if available

for use by Parent, Parent shall prepare and file with the SEC a registration statement on Form S-8 (or other appropriate form) relating to the shares of Parent Common Stock issuable with respect to assumed or converted Company Compensatory Awards under this Section 6.11.

6.12 Employee Matters.

(a) The Company shall terminate, effective as of the day immediately preceding the date the Company becomes a member of the same Controlled Group of Corporations (as defined in Section 414(b) of the Code) as Parent (the “401(k) Termination Date”), any and all 401(k) plans maintained by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, unless Parent provides written notice to the Company that such 401(k) plan(s) shall not be terminated. The Company shall provide Parent evidence that the 401(k) plan(s) of the Company and its Subsidiaries have been terminated pursuant to resolutions of the Company Board or the board of directors of its Subsidiaries, as applicable. The form and substance of such resolutions shall be subject to the reasonable review and approval of Parent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. As soon as practicable following the 401(k) Termination Date, Parent shall permit all Continuing Employees who were eligible to participate in any 401(k) plan maintained by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries immediately prior to the 401(k) Termination Date to participate in Parent’s 401(k) plan, and shall permit each such Continuing Employee to elect to transfer his or her account balance when distributed from any terminated 401(k) plan maintained by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, including any outstanding participant loans from such 401(k) plans, to Parent’s 401(k) plan, except to the extent accepting such transfers would adversely affect the tax-qualified status of the Parent 401(k) plan, or as may be prohibited by Parent’s 401(k) plan.

(b) The Company shall take all action that may be necessary to: (i) cause the rights of participants in the Company ESPP with respect to all current offering periods to terminate on or prior to five (5) days from the date of this Agreement, and all accumulated payroll deductions allocated to each participant’s account as of such date under the Company ESPP shall be returned to such participant as soon as reasonably practicable following such date (without interest) and in any event in accordance with the terms of the Company ESPP, and (ii) to cause the Company ESPP to terminate effective as of the close of business on the day immediately prior to the Effective Time. The Company shall take all necessary actions so that no new offering is commenced or made under the Company ESPP on or following the date of this Agreement. Prior to the date actions must be taken under this Section 6.12(b), and subject to the reasonable review and approval by Parent, the Company shall take all actions necessary give effect to the transactions contemplated by this Section 6.12(b).

(c) From and after the Effective Time through December 31, 2015, Parent will provide, or will cause to be provided, to all Continuing Employees who remain employed by

Parent or any Subsidiary of Parent, cash compensation as favorable as that provided to such Continuing Employees immediately prior to the Effective Time.

(d) As of the Effective Time, with respect to Continuing Employees, Parent shall cause the service of each such Continuing Employee with the Company and its Subsidiaries prior to the Effective Time to be recognized for purposes of eligibility to participate, levels of benefits and vesting (but not for purposes of benefit accrual) under each severance, vacation, fringe or other welfare benefit plan, program or arrangement of the Parent or the Surviving Corporation, as applicable, but in which any Continuing Employee is or becomes eligible to participate, but solely to the extent permitted by Applicable Law and to the extent such credit would not result in a duplication of benefits. From and after the Effective Time, Parent shall, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law and the terms of the applicable plans, (i) cause any pre-existing conditions or limitations and eligibility waiting periods under any U.S. group health plans of Parent or its Subsidiaries to be waived with respect to the Continuing Employees and their eligible dependents and (ii) give each of the Continuing Employee in the U.S. credit for the plan year in which the Effective Time occurs toward applicable deductibles and annual out of pocket limits for expenses incurred prior to the Effective Time for which payment has been made. Unused vacation days accrued by Continuing Employees located in the U.S. under the plans and policies of the Company and its Subsidiaries shall carry over to Parent or the Surviving Corporation to the maximum extent permitted by Applicable Law, and each Continuing Employee shall be paid by the Company in cash for any accrued and unused vacation days that Parent and the Company mutually determine are not permitted by Applicable Law to be carried over.

(e) The Company shall terminate any and all group severance, separation, deferred compensation or salary continuation plans, programs or arrangements maintained by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, effective in each case no later than the day immediately preceding the Effective Time (excluding, for purposes of clarity, any individual severance arrangement entered into by the Company or one of its Subsidiaries with an employee of and any such plan, program or arrangement required to be maintained by the Company or one of its Subsidiaries by Applicable Law, as disclosed on Section 6.12(d) of the Company Disclosure Letter). The Company shall provide Parent evidence that such plans have been terminated pursuant to resolutions of the Company Board or the board of directors of its Subsidiaries, as applicable (the form and substance of which resolutions shall be subject to review and approval of Parent).

(f) Nothing contained herein shall be construed as requiring Parent, the Company or any of their Affiliates to continue any specific benefit plan or program, or to continue the employment of any specific person. No provision of this Agreement shall be construed to create any right to any compensation or benefits on the part of any Continuing Employee or other future, present or former employee of Parent, the Company or their respective

Affiliates. Sections 6.11 and 6.12 are intended to be for the sole benefit of the parties to this Agreement, and nothing in Sections 6.11 and 6.12 or elsewhere in this Agreement shall be deemed to confer upon any other person any rights or remedies hereunder or make any employee or other service provider of the parties or their respective Subsidiaries a third party beneficiary of this Agreement. No provision of this Agreement shall operate as an amendment to any benefit plan maintained by the Company or Parent or their respective Affiliates. Further, Parent, the Company and their respective Affiliates retain the right to amend or terminate their benefit plans at any time and from time to time, subject to the provisions of this Agreement and the terms of such plans.

6.13 Directors’ and Officers’ Indemnification and Insurance.

(a) For six (6) years after the Effective Time, Parent shall cause the Surviving Company and its Subsidiaries to honor and fulfill in all respects the obligations of the Company under its articles of incorporation and bylaws and its Subsidiaries under their respective certificates of incorporation and bylaws (and other similar organizational documents) and all agreements for indemnification (that have been disclosed to Parent prior to the date hereof), exculpation of liability or advancement of expenses, in effect as of the date hereof between the Company or any of its Subsidiaries and any of their respective current directors, officers or employees or former directors and officers or any person who becomes a director or officer prior to the Effective Time (the “Indemnified Parties”).

(b) For a period of six (6) years after the Effective Time, Parent and the Surviving Company shall maintain in effect the Company’s current directors’ and officers’ liability insurance (“D&O Insurance”) in respect of acts or omissions occurring at or prior to the Effective Time, covering each person covered by the D&O Insurance immediately prior to the Effective Time, on terms with respect to the coverage and amounts no less favorable than those of the D&O Insurance in effect on the date of this Agreement; provided, however, that the Surviving Company may, at its option, substitute therefor policies of Parent, the Surviving Company or any of their respective Subsidiaries containing terms with respect to coverage and amounts no less favorable to such persons than the D&O Insurance, provided further, however, that in satisfying its obligations under this Section 6.13(b), Parent and the Surviving Company shall not be obligated to pay annual premiums in excess of two hundred percent (200%) of the amount of the Company’s annual premium amounts as of the date hereof (such two hundred percent (200%) amount, the “Maximum Annual Premium”) (which premiums the Company represents and warrants to be as set forth in Section 6.13 of the Company Disclosure Letter), provided further that if the annual premiums of such insurance coverage exceed such amount, Parent and the Surviving Company shall be obligated to obtain a policy with the greatest coverage available for a cost not exceeding the Maximum Annual Premium. Prior to the Effective Time, notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, the Company may purchase a six-year “tail” prepaid policy (the “Tail Policy”) on the D&O

Insurance on terms and conditions no less favorable, in the aggregate, than the D&O Insurance and for an amount not to exceed three hundred percent (300%) of the Company’s annual premium amounts as of the date hereof. In the event that the Company does not purchase the Tail Policy, Parent may purchase a Tail Policy on the D&O Insurance on terms and conditions no less favorable, in the aggregate, than the D&O Insurance. In the event that either the Company or Parent shall purchase such a Tail Policy prior to the Effective Time, Parent and the Surviving Company shall maintain such Tail Policy in full force and effect and continue to honor their respective obligations thereunder, in lieu of all other obligations of Parent and the Surviving Company under the first sentence of this Section 6.13(b) for so long as such Tail Policy shall be maintained in full force and effect.

(c) The obligations under this Section 6.13 shall not be terminated, amended or otherwise modified in such a manner as to adversely affect any Indemnified Party (or any other person who is a beneficiary under a Tail Policy referred to in Section 6.13(b) (and their heirs and representatives)) without the prior written consent of such person. Each of the Indemnified Parties or other persons who are beneficiaries under the D&O Insurance or the Tail Policy referred to in Section 6.13(b) (and their heirs and representatives) are intended to be third party beneficiaries of this Section 6.13, with full rights of enforcement as if a party thereto.

(d) In the event Parent or the Surviving Company (i) consolidates with or merges into any other Person and shall not be the continuing or surviving entity of such consolidation or merger or (ii) transfers all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any Person, then proper provision shall be made so that such continuing or surviving entity or transferee of such assets, as the case may be, shall assume the obligations set forth in this Section 6.13. The rights of the Indemnified Parties (and other persons who are beneficiaries under the D&O Insurance or the Tail Policy referred to in Section 6.13(b) (and their heirs and representatives)) under this Section 6.13 shall be in addition to, and not in substitution for, any other rights that such persons may have under the certificate or articles of incorporation, bylaws or other equivalent organizational documents and any and all indemnification agreements of or entered into by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or applicable Law (whether at law or in equity).

6.14 Stock Exchange Listing. Parent shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause the shares of Parent Common Stock to be issued in the Merger, and such other shares of Parent Common Stock to be reserved for issuance in connection with the Merger, to be approved for listing on Nasdaq, subject to official notice of issuance, prior to the Effective Time.

6.15 Obligations of Merger Sub and Merger Sub LLC. Parent shall take all action necessary to cause Merger Sub, Merger Sub LLC and the Surviving Company to perform their respective obligations under this Agreement and to consummate the transactions contemplated by

this Agreement, including the Merger and payment of any amounts payable hereunder, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement.

6.16 Director and Officer Resignations. Prior to the Closing Date, unless Parent instructs the Company otherwise, the Company shall use reasonable best efforts to obtain the resignation (in form and substance acceptable to Parent) of each individual serving as a director or officer of (or comparable position with) the Company and its Subsidiaries from his or her position as a director or officer of (or comparable position with) the Company and its Subsidiaries (and not as an employee, if applicable, of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries). For the avoidance of doubt, such resignation shall not (i) prejudice in any manner any contractual rights such officer or director may have with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or (ii) cause such officer to cease to become entitled to any benefit under any Employee Plan to which he/she would otherwise be entitled in his or her position as an officer.
