WHEREAS, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, it is intended that the Merger and the Subsequent Merger, taken together, shall qualify as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and that this Agreement will be, and hereby is, adopted as a “plan of reorganization” for purposes of the Code;

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

ARTICLE I

THE MERGER AND THE SUBSEQUENT MERGER

Section 1.1 The Merger.

(a) On the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, and in accordance with the DGCL, Merger Sub shall be merged with and into the Company at the Effective Time. At the Effective Time, the separate corporate existence of Merger Sub shall cease and the Company shall continue as the surviving corporation (the “Surviving Corporation”). The Merger shall have the effects set forth in this Agreement and specified in the DGCL.

(b) At the Effective Time, the certificate of incorporation of the Company shall be amended and restated to read as set forth on Exhibit A hereto (with such changes as may be required by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) or any other Governmental Entity) and shall thereafter be the certificate of incorporation of the Surviving Corporation until thereafter amended in accordance with the provisions thereof and hereof and applicable Law. At the Effective Time, the bylaws of Merger Sub in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be the bylaws of the Surviving Corporation until thereafter amended in accordance with the provisions thereof and hereof and applicable Law.

Section 1.2 Closing. The closing (the “Closing”) of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (such transactions, including the Merger, the Subsequent Merger and the Share Issuance, the “Transactions”) will take place at 10:00 a.m., Chicago time, on a date to be specified by the parties, such date to be no later than the fifth Business Day after satisfaction or waiver of all of the conditions set forth in Article VI (other than conditions that may only be satisfied on the Closing Date, but subject to the satisfaction of such conditions), by electronic exchange of documents and signatures, unless another time, date or place is agreed to in writing by the parties hereto; provided that notwithstanding the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in Article VI, if the Marketing Period has not ended at the time of the satisfaction or waiver of such conditions (other than those conditions that may only be satisfied on the Closing Date, but subject to the satisfaction or waiver of such conditions), the Closing shall occur instead on (a) the date following the satisfaction or waiver of such conditions that is the earliest to occur of (i) any Business Day during the Marketing Period specified by Parent to the Company on no less than three (3) Business Days’ written notice to the Company and (ii) the third (3rd) Business Day after the final day of the Marketing Period, but subject, in each case, to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in Article VI (other than those conditions that by their terms may only be satisfied on the Closing Date, but subject to the satisfaction or waiver of those conditions at such time) at such time or (b) such other date, time, or place as agreed to in writing

by the parties hereto. The date on which the Closing actually occurs is referred to herein as the “Closing Date.”

Section 1.3 Effective Time. On the Closing Date (or on such other date as Parent and the Company may agree), the Company and Merger Sub shall file with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware a certificate of merger (the “Certificate of Merger”) executed in accordance with, and containing such information as is required by, the relevant provisions of the DGCL in order to effect the Merger. The Merger shall become effective at the time the Certificate of Merger shall have been duly filed with, and accepted by, the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware or such later date and time as is agreed upon by the parties and specified in the Certificate of Merger, such date and time hereinafter referred to as the “Effective Time.”

Section 1.4 Subsequent Merger.

(a) Immediately after the Effective Time, Parent will cause the Surviving Corporation to merge with and into Merger LLC, the separate corporate existence of the Surviving Corporation shall thereupon cease, Merger LLC shall continue as the surviving entity (the “Surviving Company”) and all of the rights and obligations of the Surviving Corporation under this Agreement shall be deemed the rights and obligations of the Surviving Company. The Subsequent Merger shall have the effects set forth in Section 18-209(g) of the LLC Act. Immediately following the completion of the Subsequent Merger, the Certificate of Formation and operating agreement of the Surviving Company shall be in the forms attached hereto as Exhibit B and Exhibit C, respectively (with such changes as may be required by the SEC or any other Governmental Entity).

(b) The Merger and Subsequent Merger, taken together, are intended to be treated for federal income tax purposes as a “reorganization” under Section 368(a) of the Code (to which each of Parent and the Company are to be parties under Section 368(b) of the Code) in which the Company is to be treated as merging directly with and into Parent, with the Company Shares converted in such merger into the right to receive the consideration provided for hereunder.

(c) Each of the parties hereto shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, treat the Merger and Subsequent Merger for all tax purposes consistent with Section 1.4(b) unless required to do otherwise by applicable Law.

Section 1.5 Directors and Officers of the Surviving Corporation. The directors of Merger Sub immediately prior to the Effective Time shall, from and after the Effective Time, be the directors of the Surviving Corporation, and the officers of the Company immediately prior to the Effective Time shall, from and after the Effective Time, be the officers of the Surviving Corporation, in each case until their respective successors shall have been duly elected or appointed and qualified, or until their earlier death, resignation or removal in accordance with the Surviving Corporation’s certificate of incorporation and bylaws and applicable Laws.

Section 1.6 Directors and Officers of Surviving Company; Directors of Certain Subsidiaries. Parent shall take all actions as may be necessary such that (i) the directors of the Surviving Corporation immediately prior to the effective time of the Subsequent Merger shall be

the directors of the Surviving Company from and after the effective time of the Subsequent Merger and (ii) the officers of the Surviving Corporation immediately prior to the effective time of the Subsequent Merger shall be the officers of the Surviving Company from and after the effective time of the Subsequent Merger, in the case of clause (i) or (ii), as applicable, until their respective successors shall have been duly elected or appointed and qualified, or until their earlier death, resignation or removal in accordance with the Surviving Company’s certificate of formation and operating agreement and applicable Laws.

ARTICLE II

MERGER CONSIDERATION; CONVERSION OF STOCK

Section 2.1 Effect on Capital Stock.

(a) At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the holder of any shares of Company Common Stock (each a “Company Share” and collectively, the “Company Shares”) or any shares of capital stock of Merger Sub:

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

(ii) Each Company Share that is owned by any Parent Company or any Acquired Company shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be cancelled and retired and shall cease to exist, and no shares of Parent common stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Parent Common Stock”), or other consideration shall be delivered or deliverable in exchange therefor.

(b) At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the Company, Merger Sub or the holders of any securities of the Company or Merger Sub:

(i) Subject to Sections 2.1(b)(iii), 2.1(c), 2.2 and 2.4, each issued and outstanding share of Company Non-Voting Common Stock and each issued and outstanding share of Company Voting Common Stock (in each case, other than Company Shares to be cancelled in accordance with Section 2.1(a)(ii) and any Appraisal Shares (to the extent provided in Section 2.1(c))), which immediately prior to the Effective Time will be the only classes of common stock of the Company then outstanding, shall thereupon be canceled and extinguished and automatically converted into and shall thereafter represent only the right to receive the following consideration, without interest

thereon, upon the surrender of Company Shares in non-certificated book-entry form (“Company Book-Entry Shares”):

(ii)

(A) Each Company Share with respect to which an election to receive a combination of stock and cash (a “Mixed Election”) has been effectively made and not revoked or lost pursuant to Section 2.3 (each, a “Mixed Consideration Electing Share”) and each Non-Electing Company Share shall be converted into the right to receive the combination (which combination shall hereinafter be referred to as the “Mixed Consideration”) of (x) $10.00 in cash (the “Per Share Cash Amount”) and (y) 0.3201 of a share of validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable shares of Parent Common Stock (the “Mixed Election Stock Exchange Ratio”), subject to adjustment in accordance with Section 2.1(b)(iii).

(B) Each Company Share with respect to which an election to receive only cash (a “Cash Election”) has been effectively made and not revoked or lost pursuant to Section 2.3 (each, a “Cash Electing Company Share”) shall be converted (provided that the Available Cash Election Amount equals or exceeds the Cash Election Amount) into the right to receive in cash, without interest, an amount (rounded to two decimal places) (the “Per Share Cash Election Consideration”) equal to the sum of (i) the Per Share Cash Amount plus (ii) the product of the Mixed Election Stock Exchange Ratio multiplied by the Closing Volume-Weighted Average Price; provided, however, that if (x) the product of the number of Cash Electing Company Shares and the Per Share Cash Election Consideration (such product being the “Cash Election Amount”) exceeds (y) the difference between (I) the product of the Per Share Cash Amount and the total number of Company Shares (other than Company Shares to be cancelled in accordance with Section 2.1(a)(ii)) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time minus (II) the product of the number of Mixed Consideration Electing Shares (including any Non-Electing Company Shares) and the Per Share Cash Amount (such difference being the “Available Cash Election Amount”), then each Cash Electing Company Share shall be converted into a right to receive (1) an amount of cash (without interest) equal to the product (rounded to two decimal places) of (p) the Per Share Cash Election Consideration and (q) a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the Available Cash Election Amount and the denominator of which shall be the Cash Election Amount (such fraction being the “Cash Fraction”) and (2) a number of validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable shares of Parent Common Stock equal to the product of (r) the Exchange Ratio and (s) one (1) minus the Cash Fraction.

(C) Each Company Share with respect to which an election to receive only stock consideration (a “Stock Election”) has been effectively made and not revoked or lost pursuant to Section 2.3 (each, a “Stock Electing Company Share”) shall be converted (provided that the Cash Election Amount equals or exceeds the Available Cash Election Amount), into a number of shares of validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable shares of Parent Common Stock (the

“Exchange Ratio”), subject to adjustment in accordance with Section 2.1(b)(iii), equal to (i) the Mixed Election Stock Exchange Ratio plus (ii) the quotient (rounded to four decimal places) of the Per Share Cash Amount divided by the Closing Volume-Weighted Average Price; provided, however, that if the Available Cash Election Amount exceeds the Cash Election Amount, then each Stock Electing Company Share shall be converted into the right to receive (1) an amount of cash (without interest) equal to the amount (rounded to two decimal places) of such excess divided by the number of Stock Electing Company Shares and (2) a number of validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable shares of Parent Common Stock equal to the product (rounded to four decimal places) of (x) the Exchange Ratio and (y) a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the Per Share Cash Election Consideration minus the amount calculated in clause (1) of this paragraph and the denominator of which shall be the Per Share Cash Election Consideration.

(iii) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, if, from the date of this Agreement until the Effective Time, the outstanding shares of Parent Common Stock or the outstanding Company Shares or the securities convertible into or exercisable for shares of Parent Common Stock or Company Shares shall have been changed into a different number of shares or a different class by reason of any reclassification, stock split (including a reverse stock split), recapitalization, split-up, combination, exchange of shares, readjustment or other similar transaction, or a stock dividend or stock distribution thereon shall be declared with a record date within said period, the Merger Consideration and the Exchange Ratio and any other similarly dependent items, as the case may be, shall be appropriately adjusted to provide the holders of Company Shares the same economic effect as contemplated by this Agreement prior to such event.

(iv) The shares of Parent Common Stock to be issued, and cash payable, upon the conversion of Company Shares pursuant to this Section 2.1(b) and cash in lieu of fractional shares of Parent Common Stock as contemplated by Section 2.2(e), are referred to collectively as “Merger Consideration.”

(c) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, Company Shares that are outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and that are held by any Person who is entitled to demand and properly demands appraisal of such Company Shares pursuant to, and who complies in all respects with, Section 262 of the DGCL (“Appraisal Shares”) shall not be converted into Merger Consideration as provided in Section 2.1(b), but rather the holders of Appraisal Shares shall be entitled to payment by the Surviving Corporation of the fair value of such Appraisal Shares in accordance with Section 262 of the DGCL; provided, however, that if any such holder shall fail to perfect or otherwise shall waive, withdraw or lose the right to appraisal under Section 262 of the DGCL, then the right of such holder to be paid the fair value of such holder’s Appraisal Shares shall cease and such Appraisal Shares shall be deemed to be Mixed Consideration Electing Shares that have been converted as of the Effective Time into, and to have become exchangeable solely for the right to receive, the Merger Consideration as provided in Section 2.1(b)(ii)(A). The Company shall serve prompt notice to Parent of any demands received by the Company for appraisal of any Company Shares, and Parent shall have

the right to participate in and direct all negotiations and Actions with respect to such demands. Prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall not, without the prior written consent of Parent, make any payment with respect to, or settle or offer to settle, any such demands, or agree to do any of the foregoing.

Section 2.2 Exchange of Company Shares.

(a) Prior to the Effective Time, Parent shall deposit with a nationally recognized financial institution designated by Parent and reasonably acceptable to the Company (the “Exchange Agent”), for the benefit of the holders of Company Shares, for exchange in accordance with this Article II, through the Exchange Agent, certificates representing the full number of shares of Parent Common Stock issuable pursuant to Section 2.1 in exchange for outstanding Company Shares. Prior to the Effective Time, Parent shall provide or shall cause to be provided to the Exchange Agent all of the cash necessary to pay the cash portion of the Merger Consideration, and shall, after the Effective Time on the appropriate payment date, if applicable, provide or cause to be provided to the Exchange Agent any dividends or other distributions payable on such shares of Parent Common Stock pursuant to Section 2.2(c) (such shares of Parent Common Stock and cash provided to the Exchange Agent, together with any dividends or other distributions with respect thereto, being hereinafter referred to as the “Exchange Fund”). For the purposes of such deposit, Parent shall assume that there will not be any fractional shares of Parent Common Stock. Parent shall make available to the Exchange Agent, for addition to the Exchange Fund, from time to time as needed, cash sufficient to pay cash in lieu of fractional shares in accordance with Section 2.2(e). The Exchange Agent shall deliver the Parent Common Stock and cash contemplated to be issued pursuant to Section 2.1 out of the Exchange Fund. The Exchange Fund shall not be used for any other purpose.

(b) Each registered holder of one or more Company Book-Entry Shares shall automatically upon the delivery of a Form of Election be entitled to receive, the Merger Consideration. Payment of the Merger Consideration with respect to Company Book-Entry Shares shall only be made to the Person in whose name such Company Book-Entry Shares are registered.

(c) No dividends or other distributions with respect to Parent Common Stock with a record date after the Effective Time shall be paid to the holder of any Company Book-Entry Shares with respect to the shares of Parent Common Stock issuable upon surrender thereof, and no cash payment in lieu of fractional shares shall be paid to any such holder pursuant to Section 2.2(e), until delivery of a Form of Election, in accordance with this Article II. Subject to applicable Law, following delivery of a Form of Election, there shall be paid to the holder of the shares of Parent Common Stock issued in exchange therefor, without interest, (i) at the time of such delivery, the amount of any cash payable in lieu of a fractional share of Parent Common Stock to which such holder is entitled pursuant to Section 2.2(e) and the amount of dividends or other distributions with a record date after the Effective Time theretofore paid with respect to such whole shares of Parent Common Stock and (ii) at the appropriate payment date, the amount of dividends or other distributions with a record date after the Effective Time but prior to such delivery and a payment date subsequent to such surrender payable with respect to such whole shares of Parent Common Stock.

(d) The Merger Consideration issued (and paid) in accordance with the terms of this Article II upon conversion of any Company Shares shall be deemed to have been issued (and paid) in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to such Company Shares (other than the right to receive dividends or other distributions, if any, in accordance with Section 2.2(c)). After the Effective Time there shall be no further registration of transfers on the stock transfer books of the Surviving Corporation of Company Shares that were outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time.

(e) No certificates or scrip representing fractional shares of Parent Common Stock shall be issued upon the conversion of Company Shares pursuant to Section 2.1, and such fractional share interests shall not entitle the owner thereof to vote or to any rights of a holder of Parent Common Stock. For purposes of this Section 2.2(e), all fractional shares to which a single record holder would be entitled shall be aggregated, and calculations shall be rounded to three decimal places. In lieu of any such fractional shares, each holder of Company Shares who would otherwise be entitled to such fractional shares shall be entitled to an amount in cash, without interest, rounded down to the nearest cent, equal to the product of (i) the amount of the fractional share interest in a share of Parent Common Stock to which such holder is entitled under Section 2.1(b) (or would be entitled but for this Section 2.2(e)) and (ii) an amount equal to the Closing Volume-Weighted Average Price. The amount of cash, if any, to be paid to holders of Company Common Stock in lieu of any fractional share interests in Parent Common Stock shall be paid by the Exchange Agent, without interest, to the holders of Company Common Stock entitled to receive such cash at the time of payment of the other Merger Consideration to which such holders are entitled.

(f) Any portion of the Exchange Fund that remains undistributed to the holders of Company Common Stock for 12 months after the Effective Time shall be delivered to Parent, and any holder of Company Common Stock who has not theretofore complied with this Article II shall thereafter look only to Parent for payment of its claim for the Merger Consideration and any dividends or distributions with respect to Parent Common Stock as contemplated by Section 2.2(c)(i).

(g) None of Parent, Merger Sub, the Company, the Surviving Corporation, the Surviving Company or the Exchange Agent shall be liable to any Person in respect of any shares of Parent Common Stock (or dividends or distributions with respect thereto) or cash from the Exchange Fund (including any amounts delivered to Parent in accordance with Section 2.2(f)) delivered to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Law.

(h) The Exchange Agent shall invest any cash included in the Exchange Fund, as directed by Parent, on a daily basis, provided that no such investment or losses thereon shall affect the Merger Consideration payable hereunder and following any losses Parent shall promptly provide additional funds to the Exchange Agent for the benefit of the holders of Company Shares in the amount of any such losses to the extent that the amount then in the Exchange Fund is insufficient to pay the cash portion of the Merger Consideration. Any interest and other income resulting from such investments shall be paid to Parent.

(i) Parent, the Surviving Corporation, the Surviving Company or the Exchange Agent, as applicable, shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise payable to any Person pursuant to this Agreement such amounts as may be required to be deducted and withheld with respect to the making of such payment under the Code, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, or under any provision of state, local or non-U.S. Tax Law. To the extent that amounts are so withheld and paid over to the appropriate taxing authority, such amount deducted or withheld shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of which such deduction or withholding was made, and, in the case of any amounts withheld from any payments not consisting entirely of cash, Parent shall be treated as though it withheld an appropriate amount of the type of consideration otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement to any holder of Company Common Stock, sold such consideration for an amount of cash equal to the fair market value of such consideration at the time of such deemed sale and paid such cash proceeds to the Person in respect of which such deduction or withholding was made.

Section 2.3 Company Election Procedures.

(a) Each Person who, on or prior to the Election Deadline, is a record holder of Company Shares other than Appraisal Shares shall be entitled to specify the number of such holder’s Company Shares with respect to which such holder makes a Cash Election, a Stock Election or a Mixed Election.

(b) Parent shall prepare and file as an exhibit to the registration statement on Form S-4 to be filed with the SEC by Parent in connection with the Share Issuance (together with any amendment or supplements thereto, the “Form S-4”) a form of election (the “Form of Election”) in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Company. The Company shall mail the Form of Election with the proxy statement relating to the adoption and approval of this Agreement by the Company’s stockholders and the approval of the Share Issuance by Parent’s stockholders (together with any amendment or supplements thereto, the “Joint Proxy Statement”) to all Persons who are record holders of Company Shares as of the record date for the Company Stockholder Meeting. The Form of Election shall be used by each record holder of Company Shares (or, in the case of nominee record holders, the beneficial owner through proper instructions and documentation) to make a Cash Election, a Stock Election or a Mixed Election. In the event that a holder fails to make a Cash Election, a Stock Election or a Mixed Election with respect to any Company Shares held or beneficially owned by such holder by the Election Deadline, then such holder shall be deemed to have made a Mixed Election with respect to those Company Shares (each such Company Share, a “Non-Electing Company Share”). The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to make the Form of Election available to all Persons who become record holders of Company Shares during the period between the record date for the Company Stockholder Meeting and the Election Deadline.

(c) Any holder’s election shall have been properly made only if the Exchange Agent shall have received at its designated office by 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the date that is two (2) Business Days preceding the Closing Date (the “Election Deadline”), a Form of Election properly completed and signed and accompanied by any additional documents required by the procedures set forth in the Form of Election. After a Cash Election, a Stock Election or a Mixed Election is validly made with respect to any Company Shares, no further registration of transfers

of such Company Shares shall be made on the stock transfer books of the Company, unless and until such Cash Election, Stock Election or Mixed Election is properly revoked.

(d) Parent and the Company shall publicly announce the anticipated Election Deadline at least three (3) Business Days prior to the anticipated Election Deadline. If the Closing Date is delayed to a subsequent date, the Election Deadline shall be similarly delayed to a subsequent date, and Parent and the Company shall promptly announce any such delay and, when determined, the rescheduled Election Deadline.

(e) Any Cash Election, Stock Election or Mixed Election may be revoked with respect to all or a portion of the Company Shares subject thereto by the holder who submitted the applicable Form of Election by written notice received by the Exchange Agent prior to the Election Deadline. In addition, all Cash Elections, Stock Elections and Mixed Elections shall automatically be revoked if this Agreement is terminated in accordance with Article VII. If a Cash Election or Stock Election is revoked, the Company Shares as to which such election previously applied shall be treated as Mixed Consideration Electing Shares in accordance with Section 2.1(b)(i) unless a contrary election is submitted by the holder within the period during which elections are permitted to be made pursuant to Section 2.3(c). The accounts of holders of Company Book-Entry Shares will not be credited at the Depository Trust Company, unless the holder so requests.

The Exchange Agent (or Parent and the Company jointly, in the event that the Exchange Agent declines to make the following computation) shall also make all computations contemplated by Section 2.1(b), and absent manifest error this computation shall be conclusive and binding. The Exchange Agent may, with the written agreement of Parent (subject to the consent of the Company, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), make any rules as are consistent with this Section 2.3 for the implementation of the Cash Elections and Stock Elections provided for in this Agreement as shall be necessary or desirable to effect these Cash Elections and Stock Elections.

Section 2.4 Treatment of Company Stock Awards.

(a) Each option (or portion thereof) to purchase Company Common Stock granted under any Company Stock Plan (a “Company Stock Option”), whether vested or unvested, that is outstanding and unexercised immediately prior to the Effective Time shall cease, at the Effective Time, to represent a right to acquire Company Shares and shall be converted at the Effective Time, without any action on the part of any holder of any Company Stock Option, into an option to purchase Parent Common Stock (a “Parent Stock Option”), on the same terms and conditions (including vesting schedule) as were applicable to such Company Stock Option (for the avoidance of doubt, taking into account any changes thereto (including any acceleration or vesting thereof, as may be provided for in the relevant Company Stock Plan, the applicable award document or any applicable employment agreement or retention policy) in connection

with the Transactions). The number of shares of Parent Common Stock subject to each such Parent Stock Option shall be equal to (i) the number of Company Shares subject to each such Company Stock Option immediately prior to the Effective Time, multiplied by (ii) the Exchange Ratio (subject to adjustment in accordance with Section 2.1(b)(iii)), rounded down to the nearest whole share of Parent Common Stock, and each such Parent Stock Option shall have an exercise price per share of Parent Common Stock (rounded up to the nearest whole cent) equal to (x) the exercise price per Company Share specified in such Company Stock Option, divided by (y) the Exchange Ratio (subject to adjustment in accordance with Section 2.1(b)(iii)); provided, that in the case of any Company Stock Option to which Section 421 of the Code applies as of the Effective Time (after taking into account the effect of any accelerated vesting thereof, if applicable) by reason of its qualification under Section 422 or Section 423 of the Code, the exercise price, the number of shares of Parent Common Stock subject to such option and the terms and conditions of exercise of such option shall be determined in a manner consistent with the requirements of Section 424(a) of the Code; provided, further, that the exercise price, the number of shares of Parent Common Stock subject to such option and the terms and conditions of exercise of each Company Stock Option shall be determined in a manner consistent with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code.

(b) As of the Effective Time, each outstanding award of restricted Company Common Stock (“Company Restricted Shares”) granted pursuant to a Company Stock Plan that is outstanding and unvested immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be assumed by Parent and shall be converted into an award of restricted shares of Parent Common Stock (“Parent Restricted Shares”). Each such Parent Restricted Share shall be subject to the same terms and conditions (including vesting schedule) that applied to the corresponding Company Restricted Share immediately prior to the Effective Time (but taking into account any changes thereto provided for in this Agreement). As of the Effective Time, the number of Parent Restricted Shares into which the Company Restricted Shares are so assumed and converted shall be equal to the product of (i) the total number of outstanding Company Restricted Shares immediately prior to the Effective Time multiplied by (ii) the Exchange Ratio.

(c) Prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall take all actions necessary to terminate the Company Stock Purchase Plan and all outstanding rights thereunder as of immediately prior to the Effective Time; provided that from and after the date hereof, the Company shall take all actions necessary to (i) ensure that no new Offering Period (as such term is defined in the Company Stock Purchase Plan) commences after the date hereof, (ii) ensure that no new participants are permitted to participate in the Company Stock Purchase Plan and that the existing participants thereunder may not increase their elections with respect to the Offering Period in effect on the date hereof (the “Final Payment Period”) and (iii) provide notice to participants describing the treatment of the Company Stock Purchase Plan pursuant to this Section 2.4(c). If the Effective Time occurs during the Final Payment Period, the Final Payment Period shall terminate no later than the day immediately prior to the Closing Date, and the Company shall cause the exercise date applicable to the Final Payment Period to accelerate and occur on such termination date with respect to any then-outstanding options. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, (A) all amounts allocated to each participant’s account under the Company Stock Purchase Plan at the end of the Final Payment Period shall thereupon be used to purchase from the Company whole Company Shares at the applicable price under the Company Stock Purchase Plan for such Final Payment Period, which Company Shares shall be canceled at

the Effective Time and converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration in accordance with Section 2.1(b), and (B) as promptly as practicable following the purchase of Company Shares in accordance with the foregoing clause (A) each participant in the Company Stock Purchase Plan shall be returned the funds, if any, that remain in such participant’s account after such purchase.

(d) Prior to the Effective Time, the board of directors of the Company (the “Company Board”) (or an appropriate committee thereof) shall adopt such resolutions as are necessary for the treatment of the Company Restricted Shares, Company Stock Options and rights under the Company Stock Purchase Plan (collectively, the “Company Stock Awards”) as contemplated by this Section 2.4.

The Company shall not terminate, waive, amend, release or modify in any respect any provision of any confidentiality agreement to which any Acquired Company or any of its Affiliates or Representatives is a party with respect to any Company Acquisition Proposal or any proposal, inquiry or offer that could reasonably be expected to lead to a Company Acquisition Proposal, and shall enforce, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, the provisions of any such agreement, including obtaining injunctions to prevent any breaches of such agreements and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions thereof; provided, however, that the Company shall be entitled to waive any standstill provision included in any such confidentiality agreement or any standstill provision contained in any standstill agreement to which any Acquired Company or any of its Affiliates or Representatives is a party with respect to any Company Acquisition Proposal or any proposal, inquiry or offer that could reasonably be expected to lead to a Company Acquisition Proposal if the Company Board determines in good faith (after consultation with the Company’s outside legal counsel) that failure to waive such standstill would reasonably be expected to be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties to the stockholders of the Company under applicable Law.

(b) The Acquired Companies shall not, and shall direct their respective Representatives not to, directly or indirectly, (i) solicit, initiate or knowingly encourage or knowingly induce or facilitate the making, submission or announcement of any inquiries or the making of any proposal or offer constituting, related to or that could reasonably be expected to lead to a Company Acquisition Proposal, (ii) make available any information regarding any of the Acquired Companies to any Person (other than Parent and Parent’s or the Company’s Representatives acting in their capacity as such) in connection with or in response to a Company Acquisition Proposal or any proposal, inquiry or offer that could reasonably be expected to lead to a Company Acquisition Proposal, (iii) engage in discussions or negotiations with any Person with respect to any Company Acquisition Proposal or any proposal, inquiry or offer that could reasonably be expected to lead to a Company Acquisition Proposal (other than to state that they currently are not permitted to have discussions), (iv) approve, endorse or recommend any Company Acquisition Proposal or any proposal, inquiry or offer that could reasonably be expected to lead to a Company Acquisition Proposal, (v) make or authorize any statement, recommendation or solicitation in support of any Company Acquisition Proposal or any proposal, inquiry or offer that could reasonably be expected to lead to a Company Acquisition Proposal, (vi) enter into any letter of intent or agreement in principle or any Contract providing for, relating to or in connection with any Company Acquisition Proposal or any proposal, inquiry or offer that could reasonably be expected to lead to a Company Acquisition Proposal (other than a Company Acceptable Confidentiality Agreement in accordance with Section 5.3(c)) or (vii) reimburse or agree to reimburse the expenses of any other Person (other than the Company’s Representatives) in connection with a Company Acquisition Proposal or any inquiry, discussion, offer or request that could reasonably be expected to lead to a Company Acquisition Proposal.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 5.3, if at any time prior to obtaining the Company Stockholder Approval, (i) the Company receives, after the date of this Agreement, an unsolicited bona fide written Company Acquisition Proposal, (ii) such Company Acquisition Proposal did not result from a breach of this Agreement and (iii) the Company Board determines in good faith (after consultation with the Company’s outside legal counsel and outside financial advisors) that such Company Acquisition Proposal constitutes or would reasonably be expected to lead to a Company Superior Proposal, then, prior to obtaining the Company Stockholder Approval, the Company may (x) make available information with respect to the Acquired Companies to the Person making such Company Acquisition Proposal pursuant to a Company Acceptable Confidentiality Agreement; provided, that any non-public information provided or made available to any Person given such access shall have been previously provided or made available to Parent or shall be provided or made available to Parent prior to or concurrently with the time it is provided or made available to such Person, and (y) participate in discussions or negotiations with the Person making such Company Acquisition Proposal regarding such Company Acquisition Proposal; provided, however, that the Acquired Companies shall, and shall cause its and their respective Representatives to, cease any activities described in clause (x) or (y) of this Section 5.3(c) immediately following the time the applicable Company Acquisition Proposal ceases to be a Company Superior Proposal or a Company Acquisition Proposal that could reasonably be expected to lead to a Company Superior Proposal. The Company shall promptly (and in any event within twenty-four (24) hours) advise Parent in writing of the receipt of any Company Acquisition Proposal or any inquiry, proposal or offer that could reasonably be expected to lead to a Company Acquisition Proposal (including the identity of the Person making or submitting such Company Acquisition Proposal or inquiry, proposal or offer, and the terms and conditions thereof) that is made or submitted by any Person prior to the Effective Time. The Company shall keep Parent informed, on a reasonably current basis, of the status of, and any financial or other changes in, any such Company Acquisition Proposal, inquiry, proposal or offer, including providing Parent copies of any correspondence related thereto and proposed documents to effect such Company Acquisition Proposal.

(d) Except as otherwise provided in Section 5.3(e), 5.3(f) or 5.3(g), neither the Company Board nor any committee thereof shall (i) (A) directly or indirectly, fail to make, withhold, withdraw or qualify (or modify in a manner adverse to Parent) the Company Recommendation or the approval of this Agreement, the Merger, the Subsequent Merger or any of the other Transactions, take any action (or permit or authorize any of the Acquired Companies or any of their respective Representatives to take any such action) inconsistent with the Company Recommendation or resolve, agree or propose to take any such actions (each such action set forth in this Section 5.3(d)(i)(A) being referred to herein as a “Company Adverse Recommendation Change”) or (B) adopt, approve, recommend, endorse or otherwise declare advisable any Company Acquisition Proposal or resolve, agree or propose to take any such actions, (ii) cause or permit the Company to enter into any letter of intent, memorandum of understanding, agreement in principle, acquisition agreement, merger agreement, option agreement, joint venture agreement, partnership agreement or other agreement related to a Company Acquisition Proposal (other than a Company Acceptable Confidentiality Agreement in accordance with Section 5.3(c)), (iii) take any action to make the provisions of any Takeover Laws or any restrictive provision of any applicable anti-takeover provision in the certificate of incorporation or bylaws of the Company, inapplicable to any transactions contemplated by a Company

Acquisition Proposal (including approving any transaction under the DGCL) or (iv) resolve, agree or propose to take any such actions.

(e) Notwithstanding Section 5.3(d), at any time prior to obtaining the Company Stockholder Approval, provided that the Acquired Companies have complied with the applicable provisions of this Section 5.3, then, prior to obtaining the Company Stockholder Approval, the Company Board may, solely in response to a Company Superior Proposal received on or after the date hereof that has not been withdrawn or abandoned and that did not result from a breach of this Agreement, make a Company Adverse Recommendation Change and may cause the Company to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 7.1(d)(iv) (including payment of the Termination Fee) and concurrently enter into a binding definitive agreement to effect such Company Superior Proposal. Neither the Company Board nor any committee thereof shall make a Company Adverse Recommendation Change or terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 7.1(d)(iv) or cause the Company to enter into a binding definitive agreement to effect such Company Superior Proposal unless the Company has first complied with the provisions of Section 5.3(f) and, after so complying, the Company Board determines in good faith (after consultation with the Company’s outside legal counsel) that such Company Acquisition Proposal continues to constitute a Company Superior Proposal.

(f) The Company Board shall not take any action set forth in Section 5.3(e) unless the Company has first (i) provided written notice to Parent (a “Notice of Company Superior Proposal”) advising Parent that the Company has received a Company Superior Proposal, specifying the terms and conditions of such Company Superior Proposal, identifying the Person making such Company Superior Proposal and providing copies of any agreements intended to effect such Company Superior Proposal, and that the Company Board has made the determination required under Section 5.3(e), (ii) negotiated, and caused the Company and its Representatives to negotiate, during the five (5) Business Day period following Parent’s receipt of the Notice of Company Superior Proposal (the “Company Superior Proposal Notice Period”), in good faith with Parent to enable Parent to make a counteroffer or propose to amend the terms of this Agreement (to the extent Parent wishes to do so) so that such Company Acquisition Proposal no longer constitutes a Company Superior Proposal, and (iii) after complying with clauses (i) and (ii), reaffirmed such determination in light of any counteroffer or proposed amendment to the terms of this Agreement; provided, however, that if during the Company Superior Proposal Notice Period any revisions are made to a Company Acquisition Proposal and such revisions are material (it being understood and agreed that any change to consideration with respect to such proposal is material), the Company shall deliver a new Notice of Company Superior Proposal to Parent and shall comply with the requirements of this Section 5.3(f) with respect to such new Notice of Company Superior Proposal.

(g) Nothing in this Agreement shall prohibit or restrict the Company Board, in circumstances not involving or relating to a Company Acquisition Proposal, from effecting a Company Adverse Recommendation Change in response to the occurrence of a Company Intervening Event if the Company Board determines in good faith (after consultation with the Company’s outside legal counsel) that the failure to do so would reasonably be expected to be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties to the stockholders of the Company under applicable Law and the Company has first (i) provided written notice to Parent (a “Notice of Company Intervening Event”) describing the Company Intervening Event and advising Parent that the

Company Board intends to take such action and specifying the reasons therefor in reasonable detail; (ii) negotiated, and caused the Company and its Representatives to negotiate, during the five (5) Business Days following Parent’s receipt of the Notice of Company Intervening Event (the “Company Intervening Event Notice Period”), in good faith with Parent regarding any revisions to the terms of the Transactions proposed by Parent in response to such Company Intervening Event; and (iii) at the end of the Company Intervening Event Notice Period, the Company Board determines in good faith, after consultation with the Company’s outside legal counsel (and taking into account any adjustment or modification of the terms of this Agreement proposed by Parent), that a Company Intervening Event continues to exist and that the failure to make a Company Adverse Recommendation Change would reasonably be expected to be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties to the stockholders of the Company under applicable Law.

(h) The Company agrees that it shall take all actions necessary so that any Company Adverse Recommendation Change shall not change the approval of this Agreement or any other approval of the Company Board or any committee thereof in any respect that would have the effect of causing any of the Takeover Laws of any state (including Delaware) or other similar statutes to be applicable to the Transactions, including the Merger and the Subsequent Merger.

(i) Nothing contained in this Section 5.3 shall prohibit the Company Board from taking and disclosing a position contemplated by Item 1012(a) of Regulation M-A, Rule 14e-2(a) under the Exchange Act or Rule 14d-9 under the Exchange Act; provided, however, that neither the Company nor the Company Board (or any committee thereof) shall be permitted to recommend that the stockholders of the Company tender any securities in connection with any tender or exchange offer (or otherwise approve, endorse or recommend any Company Acquisition Proposal), unless in each case, in connection therewith, the Company Board effects a Company Adverse Recommendation Change in accordance with Section 5.3(e); provided, further that any such disclosure (other than a “stop, look and listen” communication or similar communication of the type contemplated by Rule 14d-9(f) under the Exchange Act) shall be deemed to be a Company Adverse Recommendation Change unless the Company Board expressly reaffirms the Company Recommendation and rejects any Company Acquisition Proposal within the later of (A) three (3) Business Days after such stop, look and listen communication and (B) if applicable, the deadline for filing a Schedule 14D-9 with respect to such Company Acquisition Proposal.

(j) Any action taken or not taken by any Representative of any of the Acquired Companies acting on behalf of any of the Acquired Companies that if taken or not taken by the Company would constitute a breach of this Section 5.3 shall be deemed a breach of this Agreement by the Company.

allow the other party to the agreement to (x) make a confidential Company Acquisition Proposal to the Company Board or (y) make confidential requests to the Company for amendments, waivers or consents under, or agreements not to enforce, such “standstill”, similar provision or other provision that prohibits the making of a Company Acquisition Proposal and (ii) shall not prohibit compliance by any of the Acquired Companies with any of the provisions of this Agreement.

Section 5.5 Preparation of the Form S-4 and Joint Proxy Statement; Stockholder Meetings.

(a) As soon as practicable following the date of this Agreement, Parent and the Company shall prepare, and Parent shall file with the SEC, the Form S-4, in which the Joint Proxy Statement will be included as a prospectus. Each of Parent and the Company shall cooperate in the preparation and filing of the Form S-4 and Joint Proxy Statement. The Company and Parent shall provide the other with the opportunity to review and comment on such documents prior to their filing with the SEC. Each of Parent and the Company shall use reasonable best efforts to have the Form S-4 declared effective under the Securities Act as promptly as reasonably practicable after such filing and to keep the Form S-4 effective as long as necessary to consummate the Merger and the Subsequent Merger. Each of Parent and the Company shall use reasonable best efforts to cause to be delivered to the other a “comfort letter” of its independent auditors, dated the date that is two (2) Business Days prior to the date on which the Form S-4 becomes effective. No filing of, or amendment or supplement to, the

Form S-4 or the Joint Proxy Statement will be made by Parent or the Company, as applicable, without the other’s prior consent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) and without providing the other the reasonable opportunity to review and comment thereon. Parent or the Company, as applicable, will advise the other promptly after (i) it receives oral or written notice of the time when the Form S-4 has become effective, (ii) any supplement or amendment to the Form S-4 has been filed, (iii) it becomes aware of the issuance of any stop order with respect to the Form S-4, (iv) it becomes aware of the suspension of the qualification of the Parent Common Stock issuable in connection with the Merger for offering or sale in any jurisdiction, (v) the receipt of (A) any oral or written request by the SEC for amendment of the Joint Proxy Statement or the Form S-4 or (B) comments thereon from the SEC or (vi) providing responses to the SEC with respect to (A) or (B) of the foregoing clause (v). Parent or the Company, as applicable, will promptly provide the other with copies of any written communication received from the SEC or any state securities commission with respect to the Form S-4, the Joint Proxy Statement or the qualification of the Parent Common Stock issuable in connection with the Share Issuance. If at any time prior to the Effective Time any information relating to Parent or the Company, or any of their respective Affiliates, officers or directors, is discovered by Parent or the Company which should be set forth in an amendment or supplement to the Form S-4 or the Joint Proxy Statement, so that any such document would not include any misstatement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, the party that discovers such information shall promptly notify the other party and an appropriate amendment or supplement describing such information shall be promptly filed with the SEC, after the other party has had a reasonable opportunity to review and comment thereon, and, to the extent required by applicable Law, disseminated to the respective stockholders of Parent and the Company. Parent will cause the Joint Proxy Statement to be mailed to Parent’s stockholders, and the Company will cause the Joint Proxy Statement to be mailed to the Company’s stockholders, in each case as promptly as reasonably practicable after the Form S-4 is declared effective under the Securities Act.

(b) The Company shall, as soon as reasonably practicable following effectiveness of the Form S-4, duly call, give notice of, convene and hold a meeting of its stockholders (the “Company Stockholder Meeting”) for the purpose of seeking the Company Stockholder Approval. Subject to Sections 5.3(e), 5.3(f) and 5.3(g), the Company shall, through the Company Board, recommend that its stockholders adopt and approve this Agreement and the Transactions, including the Merger (the “Company Recommendation”), and shall use reasonable best efforts to (i) solicit from its stockholders proxies in favor of the adoption of this Agreement and (ii) take all other action necessary or advisable to secure the Company Stockholder Approval, and the Company Board shall not withhold, withdraw, modify or qualify, or propose publicly to withhold, withdraw, modify or qualify the Company Recommendation in a manner adverse to Parent. The Company shall have the right to postpone or adjourn the Company Stockholder Meeting (A) for the absence of a quorum, (B) to allow reasonable additional time to solicit additional proxies to the extent that at such time the Company has not received a number of proxies that it reasonably believes sufficient to obtain the Company Stockholder Approval at the Company Stockholder Meeting, (C) to the extent required by applicable Law or (D) with the written consent of Parent. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company’s obligations pursuant to this Section 5.5(b) shall not be affected by the commencement, public proposal, public disclosure or public or private communication to the Company of any Company

Acquisition Proposal or by a Company Adverse Recommendation Change unless this Agreement has been terminated in accordance with Section 7.1(d)(iv).

(c) Parent shall, as soon as reasonably practicable following effectiveness of the Form S-4, duly call, give notice of, convene and hold a meeting of its stockholders (the “Parent Stockholder Meeting”) for the purpose of seeking the Parent Stockholder Approval. Subject to Sections 5.4(e), 5.4(f) and 5.4(g), Parent shall, through the Parent Board, recommend that its stockholders approve the Share Issuance (the “Parent Recommendation”) and shall use reasonable best efforts to (i) solicit from its stockholders proxies in favor of the approval of the Share Issuance and (ii) take all other action necessary or advisable to secure the Parent Stockholder Approval, and the Parent Board shall not withhold, withdraw, modify or qualify, or propose publicly to withhold, withdraw, modify or qualify the Parent Recommendation in a manner adverse to Parent. Parent shall have the right to postpone or adjourn the Parent Stockholder Meeting (A) for the absence of a quorum, (B) to allow reasonable additional time to solicit additional proxies to the extent that at such time Parent has not received a number of proxies that it reasonably believes sufficient to obtain the Parent Stockholder Approval at the Parent Stockholder Meeting, (C) to the extent required by applicable Law or (D) with the written consent of the Company. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Parent’s obligations pursuant to this Section 5.5(c) shall not be affected by the commencement, public proposal, public disclosure or public or private communication to Parent of any Parent Acquisition Proposal or by a Parent Adverse Recommendation Change unless this Agreement has been terminated in accordance with Section 7.1(c)(iv).

(d) The Company and Parent shall use reasonable best efforts to hold the Company Stockholder Meeting and the Parent Stockholder Meeting on the same date, including by postponing or adjourning the Company Stockholder Meeting or the Parent Stockholder Meeting, as applicable, if the other party postpones or adjourns the Parent Stockholder Meeting or the Company Stockholder Meeting, as applicable.

Section 5.6 Access to Information; Confidentiality. Subject to contractual and legal restrictions applicable to the Company or Parent or any of their respective Subsidiaries, each of the Company and Parent shall, and shall cause each of its respective Subsidiaries to, afford to the other party and to the Representatives of such other party, reasonable access during normal business hours during the period prior to the Effective Time or the termination of this Agreement to all of their respective properties, books, contracts, commitments, personnel and records (including the work papers of independent accountants, if available and subject to the consent of such independent accountants), and, during such period, each of the Company and Parent shall, and shall cause each of its respective Subsidiaries to, furnish promptly to the other party (a) a copy of each report, schedule, registration statement and other document filed by it during such period pursuant to the requirements of federal or state securities laws and (b) all other information concerning its business, properties and personnel as such other party may reasonably request; provided, however, that such access does not unreasonably disrupt the normal operations of the Acquired Companies or the Parent Companies, as applicable. No investigation pursuant to this Section 5.6 shall affect any representation or warranty in this Agreement of any party hereto or any condition to the obligations of the parties hereto. This Section 5.6 shall not require any Acquired Company or Parent Company to permit any access, or to disclose any information, that in the reasonable judgment of such party would reasonably be expected to result in (i) the

disclosure of any trade secrets of third parties or a violation of any of its obligations with respect to confidentiality if such party shall have used commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the consent of such third party to such inspection or disclosure, (ii) the loss of attorney-client privilege with respect to such information or (iii) in the case of documents or portions of documents relating to pricing or other matters that are highly sensitive, a violation of applicable Law (including any Regulatory Law). If any material is withheld by such party pursuant to the preceding sentence, such party shall inform the other party as to the general nature of what is being withheld. All information exchanged pursuant to this Section 5.6 shall be subject to the Mutual Confidentiality and Non-Disclosure Agreement, dated August 3, 2016, between the Company and Parent (the “Confidentiality Agreement”).

Section 5.7 Further Action; Efforts.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, each party will use reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions and to do, or cause to be done, all things necessary, proper or advisable under applicable Law to consummate the Transactions, and no party hereto shall fail to take or cause to be taken any action that would reasonably be expected to prevent, impede or materially delay the consummation of the Transactions; provided, however, that the parties hereto acknowledge and agree that all obligations of Parent, Merger Sub, Merger LLC and the Company relating to the Debt Financing shall be governed exclusively by Section 5.19, and not by this Section 5.7. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Agreement shall require Parent, Merger Sub or Merger LLC to, and no Acquired Company shall, without the prior written consent of Parent, agree to any modification to or accommodation under any Contract or pay any fee, penalty or other consideration to any third party for any consent or approval required for the consummation of the Transactions. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, each party hereto agrees to make, if required, appropriate filings under any Regulatory Law, and each party hereto agrees to make an appropriate filing of a Notification and Report Form pursuant to the HSR Act with respect to the Transactions within a reasonable time period not to exceed thirty (30) days from the date hereof and to supply as promptly as reasonably practicable and advisable any additional information and documentary material that may be requested pursuant to the HSR Act and to take all other commercially reasonable actions necessary, proper or advisable to cause the expiration or termination of the applicable waiting periods under the HSR Act as soon as practicable, including by requesting early termination of the waiting period provided for in the HSR Act.

(b) The Company agrees to submit to the staff of the SEC a draft form of the necessary documents required in connection with the approval contemplated by Section 6.1(g)(i), as soon as reasonably practicable after the date hereof (but in any event within twenty (20) days after the date of this Agreement), and thereafter to supply as promptly as reasonably practicable and advisable any additional information and documentary material that may be requested, and to take all other commercially reasonable actions necessary, in connection therewith. Parent will reasonably cooperate promptly with the Company in connection with the preparation of the necessary documents required in connection with the approval contemplated by Section 6.1(g)(i) and in responding to any requests from the SEC in connection therewith.

(c) Each of Parent, Merger Sub and Merger LLC, on the one hand, and the Company, on the other hand, shall, in connection with the efforts referenced in Section 5.7(a) to obtain all

requisite approvals and authorizations for the Transactions under the HSR Act or any other Regulatory Law, use its reasonable best efforts to (i) cooperate in all respects with each other in connection with any filing or submission and in connection with any investigation or other inquiry, including any Action initiated by a private party, (ii) keep the other party reasonably informed of any communication received by such party from, or given by such party to, the Federal Trade Commission (the “FTC”), the Antitrust Division of the Department of Justice (the “DOJ”) or any other U.S. or non-U.S. Governmental Entity and of any communication received or given in connection with any Action by a private party, in each case regarding any of the Transactions and (iii) permit the other party a reasonable opportunity to review any substantive written communication given by it to (including the documentation referenced in Section 5.7(a)), and consult with each other in advance of any scheduled substantive meeting or conference with, the FTC, the DOJ or any other Governmental Entity or, in connection with any Action by a private party, with any other Person, and to the extent permitted by the FTC, the DOJ or such other applicable Governmental Entity or other Person, give the other party the reasonable opportunity to attend and participate in such meetings and conferences. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company and Parent may, as each deems advisable and necessary, reasonably designate any competitively sensitive material provided to the other side under this Section 5.7(c) as “Antitrust Counsel Only Material.” Such materials and the information contained therein shall be given only to the outside counsel regarding Regulatory Law of the recipient and will not be disclosed by outside counsel to employees, officers, directors or consultants of the recipient or any of its Affiliates unless express permission is obtained in advance from the source of the materials (the Company or Parent, as the case may be) or its legal counsel. Each of the Company and Parent shall cause its respective counsel regarding Regulatory Law to comply with this Section 5.7(c).

(d) No party hereto and no Parent Company or Acquired Company shall, without the prior written consent of the other parties hereto (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) consent to or accept or enter into any operational restriction, consent decree or hold separate order or make any divestiture or other undertaking to obtain requisite approvals and authorizations for the Transactions from any Governmental Entity; provided that, without the prior written consent of the other parties hereto, either party hereto and any Parent Company or Acquired Company may divest or dispose of any assets or business that generated $1,000,000 or less in net revenue during 2015. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, no Parent Company or Acquired Company shall be obligated to, and no party hereto shall, without the prior written consent of the other parties hereto (which consent shall be in the sole discretion of such other parties) consent to accept or enter into any operational restriction, consent decree or hold separate order or make any divestiture or other undertaking to obtain requisite approvals and authorizations for the Transactions from any Governmental Entity, in each case, that, individually or in the aggregate, would reasonably be expected to (i) have a material adverse effect on the business, assets, liabilities, financial condition or results of operations of the Acquired Companies, taken as a whole, or (ii) have a material adverse effect on the business, assets, liabilities, financial condition or results of operations of the Parent Companies, taken as a whole, after giving effect to the Merger (provided that for the purpose of determining whether a potential adverse effect on the Parent Companies, taken as a whole, after giving effect to the Merger, would constitute a material adverse effect, the Parent Companies, taken as a whole, after giving effect to the Merger, shall be deemed to be a consolidated group of entities of the size and scale of a hypothetical company that is 100% of the

size and scale of the Acquired Companies, taken as a whole) (each of the effects described in clauses (i) and (ii) of this sentence being referred to herein as a “Burdensome Effect”).

Section 5.8 Employee Benefits Matters.

(a) For a period ending not earlier than December 31, 2017 (or, if the Closing Date occurs after March 31, 2017, for a period of not less than 12 months after the Closing Date), Parent shall, or shall cause its Affiliates (including the Surviving Company) to, provide each Continuing Employee with (i) a base salary or wage or commission rate, in each case, at least equal to the base salary or wage or commission rate provided to such Continuing Employee immediately prior to the Closing Date (except as otherwise may be agreed upon by any Continuing Employee), (ii) severance pay and benefits no less favorable than the severance pay and benefits provided to such Continuing Employee immediately prior to the Closing Date and (iii) other compensation, fringe benefits and employee benefits (other than defined benefit pension benefits and retiree health and welfare benefits) that are substantially comparable in the aggregate to the other compensation, fringe benefits and employee benefits (other than defined benefit pension benefits and retiree health and welfare benefits, if any) provided to such Continuing Employee immediately prior to the Closing Date. Parent agrees to honor, or shall cause its Affiliates (including the Surviving Company) to honor and assume, the contractual obligations of the Acquired Companies under the provisions of each Company Plan as such plan or agreement relates to each Continuing Employee. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no provision of this Section 5.8(a) is intended to prevent Parent or any of its Affiliates (including the Surviving Company) from amending or terminating any such Company Plan in accordance with its terms.

(b) Following the Effective Time, Parent shall, or shall cause its Affiliates (including the Surviving Company) to, provide each Continuing Employee with full credit for prior service with the Acquired Companies (as well as service with any predecessor employer) for all purposes under any Parent Employee Plan in which any Continuing Employee is or becomes eligible to participate on or after the Closing Date, including for purposes of eligibility, vesting, level of benefits (including for purposes of vacation and severance) and benefit accruals (but not for benefit accrual purposes under any defined benefit plan of any of the Parent Companies or for purposes of determining eligibility for retiree health and welfare benefits), in each case, (i) to the extent such service was recognized by any Acquired Company prior to the Closing and (ii) except where such credit would result in a duplication of benefits. For the avoidance of doubt, no Continuing Employee shall be retroactively eligible to participate in any Parent Employee Plan, including any such Parent Employee Plan that was frozen prior to the Effective Time. With respect to the relevant health and welfare benefit plans in which each Continuing Employee (and his or her eligible dependents) is eligible to participate from and after the Closing Date, Parent shall, or shall cause its Affiliates (including the Surviving Company) to, (i) waive any limitations or exclusions on benefits relating to pre-existing conditions, actively-at-work requirements, waiting periods and similar limitations and requirements to the same extent such limitations, exclusions and requirements would not have been applicable to such Continuing Employee (or his or her eligible dependents) under the terms of any comparable plan of the Acquired Companies and (ii) recognize, or cause to be recognized, the dollar amount of all co-payments, deductibles and similar expenses incurred by each Continuing Employee (and his or her eligible dependents) during the calendar year in which the Closing Date occurs for purposes of satisfying

such year’s co-payments, deductibles and similar expenses to the same extent as such Continuing Employee was entitled, prior the Closing Date, to recognition of such co-payments, deductibles, and similar expenses under any comparable plan of the Acquired Companies. For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Parent Employee Plan” means any (i) “employee benefit plan” (as defined in Section 3(3) of ERISA), (ii) “employee pension benefit plan” (as defined in Section 3(2) of ERISA), (iii) “employee welfare benefit plan” (as defined in Section 3(1) of ERISA) and (iv) any other benefit plan or policy maintained from time to time by Parent or any of its Affiliates (including the Surviving Company) for the benefit of, or relating to, the employees of Parent or its Affiliates (including the Surviving Company) and with respect to which eligibility has not been frozen prior to the Effective Time.

(c) On or prior to the Closing Date, the Company shall pay, or cause to be paid, to each individual participating in any incentive compensation plan or program of any of the Acquired Companies for which bonuses have not yet been paid in respect of the performance period ending on December 31, 2016, a bonus under each such plan or program based on actual achievement of the performance goals through a specified date, as determined by the Company in its sole discretion (but in no event later than the earlier of (x) December 31, 2016 and (y) the Closing Date), which such bonuses shall be payable in the form of cash and/or equity or equity-based awards, as determined in the good faith discretion of the Company in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice (provided that in no event shall such equity or equity-based awards vest solely as a result of the consummation of the Transactions). For the performance year ending December 31, 2017, Parent shall, or shall cause its Affiliates (including the Surviving Company) to, provide each Continuing Employee with equity and nonequity incentive compensation no less favorable to such Continuing Employee than the equity and non-equity incentive compensation provided to such Continuing Employee immediately prior to the Closing Date.

(d) The Company shall take (or cause to be taken) all actions necessary or appropriate to terminate, effective no later than the day immediately preceding the Closing Date, any Company Plan set forth on Section 5.8(d) of the Company Disclosure Letter, unless Parent, in its sole and absolute discretion, agrees to sponsor and maintain any such Company Plan by providing the Company with written notice of such election at least five (5) days before the Effective Time. Unless Parent so provides notice to the Company in accordance with the preceding sentence, the Company shall deliver to Parent, prior to the Closing Date, evidence that the Company Board has validly adopted resolutions to terminate such Company Plans, effective no later than the date immediately preceding the Closing Date.

(e) In connection with any termination of the Company’s 401(k) Plan (the “Company 401(k) Plan”) pursuant to Section 5.8(d) or otherwise, Parent shall permit each Continuing Employee to make rollover contributions of “eligible rollover distributions” (within the meaning of Section 401(a)(31) of the Code) in cash in an amount equal to the eligible rollover distribution portion of the account balance distributed to each such Continuing Employee from the Company 401(k) Plan to an “eligible retirement plan” (within the meaning of Section 401(a)(31) of the Code) of Parent or any of its Affiliates (the “Parent 401(k) Plan”). Parent shall take all actions necessary to cause the Parent 401(k) Plan to accept rollovers by Continuing Employees from the Company 401(k) Plan, including participant loans, after the Closing Date.

(f) Nothing contained herein shall be construed as requiring, and the Company shall take no action that would have the effect of requiring, Parent or the Surviving Company to continue any specific employee benefit plans or to continue the employment of any specific person. Without limiting the generality of Section 8.6, the provisions of this Section 5.8 are for the sole benefit of the parties to this Agreement and nothing herein, expressed or implied, is intended or shall be construed to (i) constitute an amendment or termination of any of the compensation and benefits plans maintained for or provided to Continuing Employees prior to or following the Effective Time, (ii) impede or limit Parent, the Company, the Surviving Company or any of their Affiliates from amending or terminating any Company Plan following the Effective Time or (iii) confer upon or give to any Person (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any Continuing Employee or any current or former employees, labor unions, directors or independent contractors (including any representative, beneficiary or dependent thereof) of any of the Acquired Companies, or on or after the Effective Time, the Surviving Company or any of its Subsidiaries), other than the parties hereto and their respective permitted successors and assigns, any legal or equitable or other rights or remedies under or by reason of any provision of this Agreement.

Section 5.9 Notification of Certain Matters. The Company and Parent shall promptly notify each other of the receipt of any written communication received from any Person alleging that it is or may be required to obtain a consent of such Person in connection with the Transactions or from any Governmental Entity in connection with the Transactions. The delivery of any notice pursuant to this Section 5.9 shall not (a) cure any breach of, or non-compliance with, any other provision of this Agreement or (b) limit the remedies available to the party sending or receiving such notice.

Section 5.10 Indemnification, Exculpation and Insurance.

(a) Parent, Merger Sub and Merger LLC agree that all rights to exculpation or indemnification arising from, relating to or otherwise in respect of, acts or omissions occurring prior to the Effective Time now existing in favor of the current or former directors or officers of any of the Acquired Companies as provided in their respective certificates of incorporation, bylaws or other organizational documents shall survive the Merger and the Subsequent Merger and shall continue in full force and effect in accordance with their terms. For a period of no less than six (6) years from the Effective Time, Parent shall, shall cause the Surviving Company to, and the Surviving Company shall, maintain in effect the exculpation, indemnification and advancement of expenses provisions of each Acquired Company’s certificate of incorporation and bylaws or similar organizational documents in effect as of the date of this Agreement or under any indemnification agreements of the Acquired Companies with any of their respective directors, officers or employees in effect as of the date of this Agreement. None of Parent, the Surviving Corporation or the Surviving Company shall amend, repeal or otherwise modify any such provisions in any manner that would adversely affect the rights thereunder of any individuals who immediately before the Effective Time were current or former directors, officers or employees of any of the Acquired Companies; provided, however, that all rights to exculpation, indemnification and advancement of expenses in respect of any Action pending or asserted or any claim made within such period shall continue until the final disposition of such Action.

(b) Each of Parent and the Surviving Company shall, to the fullest extent permitted under applicable Law, indemnify and hold harmless (and advance funds in respect of each of the foregoing and costs of defense to) each current and former director or officer of any of the Acquired Companies (each, together with such individual’s heirs, executors or administrators, an “Indemnified Party”), in each case against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities, fees, costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees and disbursements), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement (collectively, “Losses”) in connection with any actual or threatened Action, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, arising out of, relating to or in connection with the fact that such Indemnified Party is or was an officer, director or fiduciary of any of the Acquired Companies at or prior to the Effective Time; provided, however, that the Indemnified Party to whom expenses are advanced provides an undertaking, if and only to the extent required by applicable Law, to repay such advances if it is ultimately determined by a court of competent jurisdiction that such Indemnified Party is not entitled to indemnification for such expenses. No Indemnified Party shall settle, compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment in any threatened or actual Action for which indemnification could be sought by an Indemnified Party hereunder unless Parent consents in writing to such settlement, compromise or consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

(c) The Company shall obtain, at or prior to the Effective Time, prepaid (or “tail”) directors’ and officers’ insurance and indemnification policies that provide coverage for events occurring prior to the Effective Time for an aggregate period of not less than six (6) years from the Effective Time (the “Continuing D&O Insurance”) with terms, conditions, retentions, deductibles and limits of liability that are no less favorable than the Company’s existing policy or policies or, if such insurance coverage is unavailable, the best available coverage; provided, however, that the Company shall not pay an annual premium for the Continuing D&O Insurance in excess of 200% of the last annual premium paid prior to the date of this Agreement (the “Company’s Current Premium”). If such premiums for such insurance would at any time exceed 200% of the Company’s Current Premium, then Parent shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause to be maintained policies of insurance which, in Parent’s good faith determination, provide the maximum coverage available at an annual premium equal to 300% of the Company’s Current Premium.

(d) If Parent, the Surviving Company or any of their respective successors or assigns (i) consolidates with or merges into any other Person and is not the continuing or surviving corporation or entity of such consolidation or merger or (ii) transfers or conveys all or substantially all its properties and assets, then, and in each case, Parent and the Surviving Company shall ensure that such surviving corporation or entity or the transferees of such properties or assets assume the obligations set forth in this Section 5.10.

(e) The rights of each Indemnified Party under this Section 5.10 shall be in addition to any rights such Person may have under the certificate of incorporation or bylaws of any of the Acquired Companies or under any agreement of any Indemnified Party with any of the Acquired Companies, in each case in effect as of the date of this Agreement, or under applicable Law. These rights shall survive consummation of the Merger and the Subsequent Merger and are intended to benefit, and shall be enforceable by, each Indemnified Party.

Section 5.11 Section 16 Matters. Prior to the Effective Time, Parent and the Company shall take all such steps as may be required or reasonably appropriate to cause any dispositions of Company Common Stock (including derivative securities with respect to Company Common Stock) or acquisitions of Parent Common Stock (including derivative securities with respect to Parent Common Stock) resulting from the Transactions by each individual who is subject to the reporting requirements of Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act with respect to the Company or who will become subject to such reporting requirements with respect to Parent, to be exempt under Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act. Parent and the Company shall provide to counsel to the other party copies of the resolutions to be adopted by their respective boards of directors to implement the foregoing.

Section 5.12 Anti-Takeover Statutes. If any Takeover Law is or may become applicable to this Agreement (including the Merger, the Subsequent Merger and the other Transactions), each of the Company, Parent, Merger Sub and Merger LLC and their respective boards of directors (or other governing body) shall grant all such approvals and take all such actions as are reasonably necessary or appropriate so that such transactions may be consummated as promptly as practicable hereafter on the terms contemplated hereby and otherwise act reasonably to eliminate or minimize the effects of such Law on such transactions.

Section 5.13 Control of Operations. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall give Parent, directly or indirectly, the right to control or direct the Company’s operations prior to the Effective Time. Prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall exercise, consistent with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, complete control and supervision over its operations.

Section 5.14 Stockholder Litigation. Each of the Company and Parent shall promptly advise the other orally and in writing of any Action commenced after the date of this Agreement against any Acquired Company or Parent Company, as applicable, or any of its directors or officers by any stockholder of the Company or Parent, as applicable, arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the Transactions and shall keep the other reasonably informed regarding any such Action. The Company or Parent, as applicable, shall give the other the opportunity to participate in the defense or settlement of any such stockholder Action, shall give due consideration to the other’s advice with respect to such stockholder Action, and the Company shall not settle or offer to settle any such Action without the prior written consent of Parent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), unless such settlement is solely for monetary damages entirely paid for with proceeds of insurance (other than the deductible under insurance policy(ies) in effect as of the date hereof).

Section 5.15 Public Announcements.

Section 5.18 Tax Treatment.

(a) Parent, the Company, Merger Sub and Merger LLC intend that the Merger and the Subsequent Merger, taken together, be treated, and each of them shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause the Merger and the Subsequent Merger, taken together, to be treated, for federal income tax purposes as a “reorganization” under Section 368(a) of the Code (to which each of Parent and the Company are to be parties under Section 368(b) of the Code) in which the Company is to be treated as merging directly with and into Parent, with the Company Shares converted in such merger into the right to receive the consideration provided for hereunder, and each shall file all Tax Returns consistent with, and take no position inconsistent with, such treatment unless required to do so by applicable Law. The parties to this Agreement agree to make such reasonable representations as requested by counsel for the purpose of rendering the opinions described in Sections 6.2(d)and 6.3(d), including representations in the Company Tax Certificate (in the case of the Company) and in the Parent Tax Certificate (in the case of Parent).

(b) If there is a determination within the meaning of Section 1313(a) of the Code that the Merger and the Subsequent Merger, taken together, do not qualify as a reorganization described in Section 368(a) of the Code, Parent, the Company, Merger Sub and Merger LLC shall take the position for federal income tax purposes that the Merger was a qualified stock purchase within the meaning of Section 338 of the Code and the Subsequent Merger qualified as a liquidation described in Section 332 of the Code.

(c) Parent, the Company, Merger Sub and Merger LLC hereby adopt this Agreement as a “plan of reorganization” within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Sections 1.368-2(g) and 1.368- 3(a).

(d) As of the date of this Agreement, the Company is able to make the representations in the Company Tax Certificate, assuming the Merger and Subsequent Merger occurred as of the date of this Agreement, and expects to be able to make such representations at such time or times as may be reasonably requested by counsel, including the effective date of the Form S-4 and the Closing Date, for purposes of rendering the opinions described in Sections 6.2(d)and 6.3(d). The Company shall immediately notify Parent, if, at any time before the Effective Time, the Company becomes aware of any fact or circumstance that could reasonably be expected to (i) prevent or impede the Company from making the representations contained in the Company Tax

Certificate or (ii) prevent or impede the Merger and the Subsequent Merger, taken together, from being treated as a “reorganization” under Section 368(a) of the Code.

(e) As of the date of this Agreement, Parent is able to make the representations in the Parent Tax Certificate, assuming the Merger and Subsequent Merger occurred as of the date of this Agreement, and expects to be able to make such representations at such time or times as may be reasonably requested by counsel, including the effective date of the Form S-4 and the Closing Date, for purposes of rendering the opinions described in Sections 6.2(d) and 6.3(d). Parent shall immediately notify the Company, if, at any time before the Effective Time, Parent becomes aware of any fact or circumstance that could reasonably be expected to (i) prevent or impede Parent from making the representations contained in the Parent Tax Certificate or (ii) prevent or impede the Merger and the Subsequent Merger, taken together, from being treated as a “reorganization” under Section 368(a) of the Code.

Section 5.19 Financing.

(a) Parent, Merger Sub and Merger LLC shall use reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all such actions as may be necessary to arrange the Debt Financing on substantially the terms and conditions described in the Debt Commitment Letter, including (i) to negotiate and enter into the definitive agreements with respect thereto on the terms and conditions described in the Debt Commitment Letter (including, as necessary, any “flex” provisions contained in the Fee Letter) by the Closing Date and (ii) to satisfy or obtain the waiver of, on a timely basis, all conditions to obtaining the Debt Financing in accordance with the terms thereof and to comply with all of the obligations applicable to Parent pursuant to the Debt Commitment Letter and the definitive agreements related thereto. Parent, Merger Sub and Merger LLC shall use reasonable best efforts to cause the Lenders and other Persons to fund the Debt Financing required to consummate the Merger on the Closing Date. In the event that all conditions to funding the commitments contained in the Debt Commitment Letter have been satisfied, Parent, Merger Sub and Merger LLC shall use reasonable best efforts to cause the Lenders and other Persons to fund the Debt Financing required to consummate the Transactions contemplated by this Agreement, pay related fees and expenses (including paying all commitment fees when due, for repaying or refinancing the Credit Agreement or other indebtedness of the Company) and satisfy all requirements applicable to Parent, Merger Sub or Merger LLC related to or arising out of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby on the date of Closing. Parent, Merger Sub and Merger LLC shall give the Company prompt notice of any breach (or threatened breach) or default (or threatened default) by any party to the Debt Commitment Letter or the definitive agreements related thereto of which any of Parent, Merger Sub or Merger LLC has become aware or any termination of the Debt Commitment Letter or such definitive agreements. In the event that any portion of the Debt Financing becomes unavailable, Parent, Merger Sub and Merger LLC shall use reasonable best efforts to arrange to obtain substitute financing as promptly as practicable in equivalent amounts commitments in respect of other financing for such portion of the Debt Financing from the same

or alternative bona fide third-party financing sources on terms no less favorable to Parent, Merger Sub and Merger LLC as those contained in the Debt Commitment Letter, including with respect to the conditions precedent to funding of such financing that are in the aggregate, in respect of certainty of funding, are equivalent to (or more favorable to Parent, Merger Sub and Merger LLC than) the conditions precedent set forth in the Debt Commitment Letter, to replace the Debt Financing contemplated by such expired, replaced, terminated or unavailable commitments or agreements, and on terms that do not make the timely funding of the financing or the satisfaction of the conditions to obtaining the financing less likely to occur (“Alternative Financing”) and promptly notify the Company of the foregoing. If obtained, Parent, Merger Sub and Merger LLC shall deliver to the Company true and complete copies of all commitment letters, agreements (including copies of fee letters (provided that fees, “market flex” and other economic terms which do not affect the amount, availability or conditionality of any portion thereof may be redacted)) pursuant to which any such alternative source shall have committed to provide Parent, Merger Sub and Merger LLC with Alternative Financing, including the definitive agreements related thereto. Parent, Merger Sub and Merger LLC shall (i) keep the Company reasonably informed of to the status of their efforts to arrange the Debt Financing and (ii) provide the Company with final copies of the Debt Commitment Letter, the Fee Letter (provided that fees, “market flex” and other economic terms which do not affect the amount, availability or conditionality of any portion thereof may be redacted), and the definitive agreements related thereto or any debt commitment letter, fee letter and definitive agreements in connection with any Alternative Financing, if any, and (iii) provide the Company a reasonable opportunity to review all drafts of the Debt Commitment Letter, any debt commitment letter in connection with any Alternative Financing and, in each case, the definitive agreements related thereto and to approve the final versions of each of the foregoing.

(b) Parent, Merger Sub and Merger LLC shall not, without the Company’s prior written consent, permit any amendment or modification to, or any waiver of any provision or remedy under, the Debt Commitment Letter or any definitive agreements related thereto that (w) shall add any condition to obtaining the funding of the Debt Financing on the Closing Date, (x) shall reasonably be expected to (i) adversely affect the ability or likelihood of Parent, Merger Sub and Merger LLC timely consummating the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or (ii) make the timely funding of the Debt Financing or the satisfaction of the conditions to obtaining the Debt Financing less likely to occur or shall reduce the amount of the Debt Financing or (z) shall adversely affect the ability of Parent, Merger Sub or Merger LLC to enforce its rights against other parties to the Debt Commitment Letter or the definitive agreements relating thereto. Parent, Merger Sub and Merger LLC shall provide the Company with prompt written notice of the receipt of any written notice or other written communication from the Debt Financing Sources with respect to any Debt Financing Sources’ failure or anticipated failure to fund its commitments under the Debt Commitment Letter or definitive agreements in connection therewith. Parent, Merger Sub and Merger LLC shall not release or consent to the termination of the commitments and obligations of the lenders under the Debt Commitment Letter other than in accordance with the terms thereof, nor shall Parent, Merger Sub and Merger LLC terminate the Debt Commitment Letter.

(c) Parent shall have the right to substitute in equivalent amounts commitments in respect of other financing for all or any portion of the Debt Financing from the same or alternative bona fide third party financing sources so long as such alternative sources would not

reasonably be expected to (i) adversely affect the ability or likelihood of Parent, Merger Sub and Merger LLC timely consummating the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (ii) make the timely funding of the Debt Financing or the satisfaction of the conditions to obtaining the Debt Financing less likely to occur or (iii) adversely affect the ability of Parent, Merger Sub or Merger LLC to enforce its rights against other parties to the Debt Commitment Letter or the definitive agreements relating thereto (collectively with the Debt Financing, the “Available Financing” it being understood that for purposes of this Section 5.19, for the avoidance of doubt, Available Financing may include any offering of debt securities or incurrence of loans).

Section 8.7 Governing Law.

(a) This Agreement, 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 Transactions, or the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement, shall be governed by the internal Laws of the State of Delaware applicable to agreements made and to be performed entirely within such state, without regard to the conflicts of law principles of such state to the extent that such principles would have the effect of applying the laws of, or directing a matter to, another jurisdiction.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 8.7(a), the Company on behalf of itself and each Company Related Party agrees that, except as specifically set forth in the Debt Commitment Letter, all Actions, including any action, cause of action, claim, cross-claim or third-party claim of any kind or description, whether in law or in equity, whether in contract or in tort or otherwise, against any of the Debt Financing Sources in any way relating to this Agreement or any of the Transactions, including any dispute arising out of or relating in any way to any agreement entered into by the Debt Financing Sources in connection with the Debt Commitment Letter or the performance thereof or the financings contemplated thereby, shall be exclusively governed by, and construed in accordance with, the internal laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to principles or rules or conflict of laws to the extent such principles or rules would require or permit the application of law of another jurisdiction. The parties hereto further agree that all of the provisions of Section 8.13 relating to waiver of jury trial shall apply to any action, cause of action, claim, cross-claim or third-party claim referenced in this Section 8.7(b).

Section 8.8 Jurisdiction; Enforcement.

(a) Each of the parties irrevocably agrees that any Action with respect to this Agreement and the rights and obligations arising hereunder, or for recognition and enforcement of any Judgment in respect of this Agreement and the rights and obligations arising hereunder brought by the other party hereto or its successors or assigns, shall be brought and determined exclusively in the Delaware Court of Chancery and any state appellate court therefrom within the State of Delaware (or, if the Delaware Court of Chancery declines to accept jurisdiction over a particular matter, any state or federal court within the State of Delaware). The parties further agree that no party to this Agreement shall be required to obtain, furnish or post any bond or similar instrument in connection with or as a condition to obtaining any remedy referred to in this Section 8.8(a), and each party waives any objection to the imposition of such relief or any right it may have to require the obtaining, furnishing or posting of any such bond or similar instrument. Each of the parties hereby irrevocably submits with regard to any such Action for itself and in respect of its property, generally and unconditionally, to the personal jurisdiction of the aforesaid courts and agrees that it will not bring any action relating to this Agreement or any of the Transactions in any court other than the aforesaid courts. Each of the parties hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert, by way of motion, as a defense, counterclaim or otherwise, in any Action with respect to this Agreement, (i) any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of the above named courts for any reason other than the failure to serve in accordance with this Section 8.8(a), (ii) any claim that it or its property is exempt or immune from jurisdiction of any such court or from any legal process commenced in such courts

111

(whether through service of notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution of judgment, execution of judgment or otherwise) and (iii) to the fullest extent permitted by the applicable Law, any claim that (A) the Action in such court is brought in an inconvenient forum, (B) the venue of such Action is improper or (C) this Agreement, or the subject matter hereof, may not be enforced in or by such courts. Each of the Company, Parent, Merger Sub and Merger LLC hereby consents to service being made through the notice procedures set forth in Section 8.2 and agrees that service of any process, summons, notice or document by registered mail (return receipt requested and first-class postage prepaid) to the respective addresses set forth in Section 8.2 shall be effective service of process for any Action in connection with this Agreement or the Transactions.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 8.8(a), the Company on behalf of itself and each Company Related Party (i) agrees that it will not bring or support any Action, including any action, cause of action, claim, cross-claim or third-party claim of any kind or description, whether in law or in equity, whether in contract or in tort or otherwise, against any of the Debt Financing Sources in any way relating to this Agreement or any of the Transactions, including any dispute arising out of or relating in any way to any agreement entered into by the Debt Financing Sources in connection with the Debt Commitment Letter or the performance thereof or the financings contemplated thereby, in any forum other than the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York, or, if under applicable Law exclusive jurisdiction is vested in the federal courts, the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York (and appellate courts thereof), (ii) submits for itself and its property with respect to any such action to the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts, (iii) agrees that service of process, summons, notice or document by registered mail addressed to it at its address provided in Section 8.2 shall be effective service of process against it for any such action brought in any such court, (iv) waives and hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of, and the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of, any such action in any such court and (v) agrees that a final judgment in any such action shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. The parties hereto further agree that all of the provisions of Section 8.13 relating to waiver of jury trial shall apply to any action, cause of action, claim, cross-claim or third-party claim referenced in this Section 8.8(b).

Section 8.9 Assignment; Successors. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations under this Agreement may be assigned or delegated, as a whole or in part, by operation of law or otherwise, by any party without the prior written consent of the other parties, and any such assignment without such prior written consent shall be null and void. Any purported assignment without such consent shall be void. Subject to the preceding sentences, this Agreement will be binding upon, inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the parties and their respective successors and assigns.

Section 8.10 Remedies.

(a) The parties agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. Accordingly, each of the Company, Parent, Merger Sub and Merger LLC

112

shall be entitled to specific performance of the terms hereof, including an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement in the Delaware Court of Chancery, this being in addition to any other remedy to which such party is entitled at law or in equity. Each of the parties hereby further waives any requirement under any law to post security as a prerequisite to obtaining equitable relief.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Company agrees on behalf of itself and each Company Related Party that none of the Debt Financing Sources shall have any liability or obligation to the Company or any Company Related Party relating to this Agreement or any of the Transactions (including the Debt Financing). This Section 8.10(b) is intended to benefit and may be enforced by the Debt Financing Sources.

Section 8.11 Currency. All references to “dollars” or “$” or “US$” in this Agreement refer to United States dollars, which is the currency used for all purposes in this Agreement.

Section 8.12 Severability. Whenever possible, each provision or portion of any provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable Law, but if any provision or portion of any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect under any applicable Law or rule in any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision or portion of any provision in such jurisdiction, and this Agreement shall be reformed, construed and enforced in such jurisdiction as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision or portion of any provision had never been contained herein, so long as the economic or legal substance of the Transactions is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any party. Upon such a determination, the parties shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner in order that the Transactions be consummated as originally contemplated to the fullest extent possible.

Section 8.13 Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH OF THE PARTIES TO THIS AGREEMENT KNOWINGLY, INTENTIONALLY AND VOLUNTARILY WITH AND UPON THE ADVICE OF COMPETENT COUNSEL IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ALL RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS.

Section 8.14 Counterparts; Execution. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, all of which shall be considered one and the same instrument and shall become effective when one or more counterparts have been signed by each of the parties and delivered to the other parties. The exchange of a fully executed Agreement (in counterparts or otherwise) by facsimile or by electronic delivery in .pdf format shall be sufficient to bind the parties to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

Section 8.15 Disclosure Letters. The Company Disclosure Letter and the Parent Disclosure Letter are not intended to constitute, and shall not be construed as constituting, representations or warranties of the Company, Parent, Merger Sub or Merger LLC, except and to the extent expressly provided in this Agreement. The fact that any item of information is disclosed in the Company Disclosure Letter or the Parent Disclosure Letter shall not be

113

construed to mean that such information is required to be disclosed by this Agreement. Inclusion of any item in the Company Disclosure Letter or the Parent Disclosure Letter shall not be deemed an admission that such item is material or that such item has had or would reasonably be expected to have a Company Material Adverse Effect or Parent Material Adverse Effect, as applicable. Descriptive headings in the Company Disclosure Letter and the Parent Disclosure Letter are inserted for reference purposes and for convenience of the reader only and shall not affect the interpretation thereof or of this Agreement. Nothing contained in the Company Disclosure Letter or the Parent Disclosure Letter shall be construed as an admission of liability or responsibility in connection with any pending, threatened or future Action.
