ARTICLE I

THE CASH TENDER OFFER

1.1 The Offer.

(a) Commencement of the Offer; Acceptance of Shares. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and provided that the Company has complied in all material respects with its obligations under Section 1.1(c) and Section 1.2 in each case to the extent necessary for Purchaser to comply with its obligation under this Section 1.1, as soon as practicable, and in any event within five (5) Business Days, after the date of this Agreement, the Purchaser shall commence (within the meaning of Rule 14d-2 under the Exchange Act) the Offer to purchase any and all outstanding shares of Company Common Stock (other than shares of Company Common Stock to be cancelled or converted in accordance with Section 2.6(b)) for a price per share of Company Common Stock equal to the Offer Price. As promptly as practicable on the later of: (i) the earliest time as of which the Purchaser is permitted under the Exchange Act to accept for payment shares of Company Common Stock validly tendered (and not validly withdrawn) pursuant to the Offer and (ii) the earliest time as of which each of the Offer Conditions shall have been satisfied or waived, the Purchaser shall (and the Parent shall cause the Purchaser to) irrevocably accept for purchase all shares of Company Common Stock validly tendered (and not validly withdrawn) pursuant to the Offer. The obligation of the Purchaser to accept for payment shares of Company Common Stock validly tendered (and not validly withdrawn) pursuant to the Offer shall be subject only to the satisfaction or waiver of each of the Offer Conditions (and shall not be subject to any other conditions), without limiting the right of the Parent or the Purchaser to terminate, extend or modify the Offer to the extent permitted under the terms of this Agreement. On the terms and subject to the conditions of the Offer and this Agreement, the Purchaser shall promptly after the Acceptance Time pay, or cause the Paying Agent to pay, for all shares of Company Common Stock validly tendered (and not validly withdrawn) in the Offer.

(b) Expiration Date; Extensions and Amendment.

(i) The Offer shall initially expire at midnight, Eastern time, at the end of the day that is the 20th Business Day after commencement of the Offer (determined in accordance with Rules 14d-1(g)(3) and 14d-2 under the Exchange Act). Subject to the immediately succeeding sentence, the Parent and the Purchaser expressly reserve the right, in their sole and absolute discretion, to (A) increase the Offer Price, (B) waive any of the Offer Conditions, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time prior to the Acceptance Time and (C) make other changes in the terms and conditions of the Offer prior to the Acceptance Time to the extent not inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, neither the Parent nor the Purchaser shall (without the prior written consent of the Company in its sole and absolute discretion): (1) change the form of consideration payable in the Offer, decrease the Offer Price, increase the Offer Price in

an increment of less than $0.25 per share or change the Offer so that it is for fewer than all of the outstanding shares of Company Common Stock (other than shares of Company Common Stock to be cancelled or converted in accordance with Section 2.6(b)); (2) except pursuant to Section 1.1(b)(ii) or Section 1.1(f), terminate the Offer or accelerate, extend or otherwise change the expiration date of the Offer; (3) provide any “subsequent offering period” (or any extension thereof) within the meaning of Rule 14d-11promulgated under the Exchange Act; (4) amend, change or waive the Minimum Condition or the condition in clause (c)(v) of Annex I; (5) amend, modify or supplement any of the Offer Conditions in any manner that is adverse to holders of shares of Company Common Stock or that would, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to prevent or delay the consummation of the Offer or prevent, delay or impair the ability of the Parent or the Purchaser to consummate the Offer, the Merger or the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement; (6) amend, modify or supplement any of the terms of the Offer (other than the Offer Conditions) in any manner that is adverse to holders of shares of Company Common Stock or that would, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to prevent or materially delay the consummation of the Offer or prevent, materially delay or impair the ability of the Parent or the Purchaser to consummate the Offer, the Merger or the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement; or (7) impose any condition to the Offer other than the Offer Conditions.

(ii) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary (but subject to the last sentence of this Section 1.1(b)(ii)), the Purchaser shall extend the scheduled expiration date of the Offer: (A) as required by applicable law (including for any period required by any rule, regulation, interpretation or position of the SEC); (B) in connection with an increase in the consideration to be paid pursuant to the Offer if and only to the extent required to comply with applicable rules and regulations of the SEC; and (C) if at the then scheduled expiration date of the Offer any of the Offer Conditions has not been satisfied (and the Parent or the Purchaser has not waived such condition in accordance with the terms of this Agreement), and without limiting Purchaser’s obligation to further extend the Offer until the earlier of the Outside Date or the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1, for one or more periods specified by the Purchaser (not in excess of ten (10) Business Days each, or for such longer period as the parties may agree in writing) in order to permit the satisfaction of such conditions to the Offer. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Purchaser shall not be required to, and without the Company’s prior written consent shall not, extend the Offer beyond the Outside Date. Nothing in this Section 1.1(b)(ii) shall be deemed to impair, limit or otherwise restrict in any manner the right of the Company, the Parent or the Purchaser to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1.

On the date of commencement of the Offer, the Parent and the Purchaser shall file with the SEC a Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO (together with all amendments and supplements thereto, the “Schedule TO”) with respect to the Offer. The Schedule TO shall contain an offer to purchase (the “Offer to Purchase”) and a form of the related letter of transmittal in customary form (the “Letter of Transmittal”), and ancillary documents and instruments pursuant to which the Offer will be made (collectively, together with any supplements or amendments thereto, the “Offer Documents”).

If the Offer is terminated in accordance with this Agreement prior to the Acceptance Time, the Purchaser shall promptly return, or cause any depositary acting on behalf of the Purchaser to return, all tendered shares of Company Common Stock to the tendering stockholders.

(g) Adjustments to Offer Price.

2.4 Effects of the Merger.

In addition, subject to Section 6.6(b) hereof, the Parent shall cause the bylaws of the Surviving Corporation to be amended and restated in their entirety so that, immediately following the Effective Time, they are identical to the bylaws of the Purchaser as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, except that all references to the name of the Purchaser therein shall be changed to refer to the name of the Company, and, as so amended and

restated, such bylaws shall be the bylaws of the Surviving Corporation, until further amended in accordance with the DGCL. The Merger shall have the effects set forth in Section 259 of the DGCL.

2.6 Conversion of Capital Stock. As of the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the Company, the Purchaser, the Parent or the holder of any shares of the capital stock of the Company or capital stock of the Purchaser:

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

2.7 Surrender of Certificates.

(a) Paying Agent. Prior to the expiration of the Offer, Parent shall engage the Paying Agent. At, prior to or promptly following the Acceptance Time (but in no event later than the earlier of (i) immediately prior to the Effective Time and (ii) the Business Day during which the Acceptance Time occurs or the immediately following Business Day if the Acceptance Time does not occur on a Business Day), the Parent shall deposit with the Paying Agent, for the benefit of the holders of shares of Company Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, for payment through the Paying Agent in accordance with this Section 2.7, the Payment Fund. The Payment Fund shall not be used for any other purpose. The Payment Fund shall be invested by the Paying Agent as directed by the Parent; provided, however, that such investments shall be in obligations of or guaranteed by the United States of America, in commercial paper obligations rated A-1 or P-1 or better by Xxxxx’x Investors Service, Inc. or Standard & Poor’s Corporation, respectively, or in certificates of deposit, bank repurchase agreements or banker’s acceptances of commercial banks with capital exceeding $10 billion (based on the most recent financial statements of such bank which are then publicly available); provided, however, that no gain or loss thereon shall affect the amounts payable hereunder and the Parent shall take all actions necessary to ensure that the Payment Fund includes at all times cash sufficient to satisfy the Parent’s obligation to pay the Merger Consideration under this Agreement. Any interest and other income resulting from such investments (net of any losses) shall be paid to the Parent pursuant to Section 2.7(e). In the event the Payment Fund is diminished below the level required for the Paying Agent to make prompt cash payments as required under Section 2.7(b), including any such diminishment as a result of investment losses, the Parent shall, or shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, immediately deposit additional cash into the Payment Fund in an amount equal to the deficiency in the amount required to make such payments.

(b) Exchange Procedures.

(i) Promptly (and in any event within three (3) Business Days) after the Effective Time, the Parent shall cause the Paying Agent to mail to each holder of record of a Certificate (A) a letter of transmittal in customary form specifying that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to the Certificates shall pass, only upon delivery of the Certificates (or affidavits of loss in lieu thereof as provided in Section 2.7(g)) to the Paying Agent, and (B) instructions for use in effecting the surrender of the Certificates (or affidavits of loss in lieu thereof as provided in Section 2.7(g)) in exchange for the Merger Consideration payable with respect thereto. Upon surrender of a Certificate (or affidavit of loss in lieu thereof as provided in Section 2.7(g)) to the Paying Agent in accordance with the terms of such letter of transmittal, duly executed, the holder of such Certificate shall be promptly paid in exchange therefor a cash amount in immediately available funds equal to (1) the number of shares of Company Common Stock formerly represented by such Certificate (or affidavit of loss in lieu thereof as provided in Section 2.7(g)) multiplied by (2) the Merger Consideration, and the Certificate so surrendered shall forthwith be cancelled.

(ii) With respect to Uncertificated Shares, the Parent and the Company shall cooperate to establish procedures with the Paying Agent and the holders of Uncertificated Shares to ensure that the Paying Agent will transmit to such holder or its nominees, upon

surrender of Uncertificated Shares held of record by such holder or its nominees in accordance with customary surrender procedures (including receipt by the Paying Agent of an “agent’s message” in customary form and/or such other evidence, if any, of transfer as the Paying Agent may reasonably request), the Merger Consideration pursuant to and in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, and each such Uncertificated Share shall forthwith be cancelled.

(c) Interest; Transfers; Rights Following the Effective Time. No interest will be paid or accrued on the cash payable upon the surrender of such Certificates or Uncertificated Shares. If payment of the Merger Consideration is to be made to a Person other than the Person in whose name the surrendered Certificate is registered, it shall be a condition precedent of payment that (i) the Certificate so surrendered shall be properly endorsed or shall be otherwise in proper form for transfer and (ii) the Person requesting such payment shall have paid any transfer and other similar Taxes required by reason of the payment of the Merger Consideration to a Person other than the registered holder of the Certificate surrendered or shall have established to the satisfaction of the Parent that such Tax either has been paid or is not required to be paid. Payment of the Merger Consideration with respect to Uncertificated Shares shall only be made to the Person in whose name such Uncertificated Shares are registered. Until surrendered as contemplated by this Section 2.7, each Certificate and all Uncertificated Shares (other than Certificates or Uncertificated Shares representing Dissenting Shares) shall be deemed at any time after the Effective Time to represent only the right to receive upon such surrender the Merger Consideration as contemplated by Section 2.6(c), without any interest thereon.

(d) No Further Ownership Rights in Company Common Stock. All Merger Consideration paid upon the surrender of Certificates and cancellation of Uncertificated Shares in accordance with the terms hereof shall be deemed to have been paid in satisfaction of all rights pertaining to the shares of Company Common Stock formerly represented by such Certificates and Uncertificated Shares, and from and after the Effective Time there shall be no further registration of transfers on the stock transfer books of the Surviving Corporation of the shares of Company Common Stock which were outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time. If, after the Effective Time, Certificates or Uncertificated Shares are presented to the Surviving Corporation or the Paying Agent for any reason, they shall be cancelled and exchanged as provided in this Article II, subject to Section 2.7(e).

(e) Termination of Payment Fund. Any portion of the Payment Fund which remains undistributed to the holders of Certificates and Uncertificated Shares for one year after the Effective Time (including all interest and other income received by the Paying Agent in respect of all funds made available to it) shall be delivered to the Parent, upon demand, and any holder of a Certificate or Uncertificated Shares who has not previously complied with this Section 2.7 shall be entitled to receive only from the Parent or the Surviving Corporation (subject to abandoned property, escheat and other similar laws) payment of its claim for Merger Consideration, without interest.

(f) No Liability. To the extent permitted by applicable law, none of the Parent, the Purchaser, the Company, the Surviving Corporation or the Paying Agent shall be liable to any holder of shares of Company Common Stock for any amount required to be delivered to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar law. If any Certificates or Uncertificated Shares shall not have been surrendered prior to the date

on which the related Merger Consideration would escheat to or become the property of any governmental authority, any such Merger Consideration shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, immediately prior to such time become the property of Parent, free and clear of all claims or interest of any Person previously entitled thereto.

(g) Lost Certificates. If any Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the Person claiming such Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed, and, if reasonably required by the Parent, the posting by such Person of a bond in such reasonable and customary amount as the Parent may direct as indemnity against any claim that may be made against it with respect to such Certificate, the Paying Agent shall pay, in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate, the Merger Consideration to be paid in respect of the shares of Company Common Stock formerly represented thereby pursuant to this Agreement.

2.8 Company Stock Plans.

(a) Effective as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, each then-outstanding and unexercised Company Stock Option shall vest in full and automatically be canceled and converted into the right to receive an amount of cash from the Surviving Corporation equal to the product of (i) the total number of shares of Company Common Stock then underlying such Company Stock Option multiplied by (ii) the excess, if any, of the Merger Consideration over the exercise price per share of such Company Stock Option, without any interest thereon and subject to all applicable withholding. In the event that the exercise price of any such Company Stock Option is equal to or greater than the Merger Consideration, such Company Stock Option shall be cancelled, without any consideration being payable in respect thereof, and have no further force or effect.

(b) Effective as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, each Company RSU that is then outstanding and unvested shall vest in full and automatically be canceled and converted into the right to receive an amount of cash from the Surviving Corporation equal to the product of (i) the total number of shares of Company Common Stock then underlying such Company RSU multiplied by (ii) the Merger Consideration, without any interest thereon and subject to all applicable withholding.

(c) Effective as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, each Company PSU that is then-outstanding and unvested shall vest with respect to the maximum number of shares of Company Common Stock that could be earned thereunder and automatically be canceled and converted into the right to receive an amount of cash from the Surviving Corporation equal to the product of (i) the maximum number of shares of Company Common Stock then underlying such Company PSU multiplied by (ii) the Merger Consideration, without any interest thereon and subject to all applicable withholding.

(d) Prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall pass resolutions and take such other actions as are necessary to provide for the treatment of the Company Stock Options, Company RSUs and Company PSUs as contemplated by this Section 2.8.

(e) The Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to make the payments contemplated by the foregoing Section 2.8(a), Section 2.8(b) and Section 2.8(c) as promptly as practicable (and in any event within five (5) Business Days) after the Effective Time.

(f) As soon as practicable following the execution of this Agreement, the Company shall mail to each Person who is a holder of Company Stock Options, Company RSUs or Company PSUs a letter describing the treatment of and payment for such equity awards pursuant to this Section 2.8 and providing instructions for use in obtaining payment therefor. The Company shall provide Parent with a reasonable opportunity to review the notices described in this Section 2.8(f) reasonably in advance of providing said notices and the Company shall consider in good faith any reasonable comments provided by Parent to the Company.

(g) The Parent and the Company may agree to treat equity compensation held by Company employees subject to non-U.S. law in a manner other than that contemplated above in this Section 2.8 to the extent necessary to take into account applicable non-U.S. law or Tax or employment considerations.

2.9 Dissenting Shares.

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Dissenting Shares shall not be converted into or represent the right to receive the Merger Consideration in accordance with Section 2.6, but shall be entitled only to such rights as are granted by the DGCL to a holder of Dissenting Shares.

(b) If any Dissenting Shares shall lose their status as such (through failure to perfect or otherwise), then, as of the later of the Effective Time or the date of loss of such status, such shares shall thereupon be deemed to have been converted as of the Effective Time into the right to receive the Merger Consideration in accordance with Section 2.6, without interest, and shall not thereafter be deemed to be Dissenting Shares.

(c) The Company shall give the Parent: (i) prompt notice of any written demand for appraisal received by the Company prior to the Effective Time pursuant to the DGCL, any withdrawal of any such demand and any other demand, notice or instrument delivered to the Company prior to the Effective Time pursuant to the DGCL that relates to such demand; and (ii) the opportunity to participate in and direct all negotiations and proceedings with respect to any such demand, notice or instrument. The Company shall not settle or pay or make any payment or settlement offer with respect to any such demand, notice or instrument or agree to do any of the foregoing unless the Parent shall have given its written consent to such settlement, payment or settlement or payment offer.

2.10 Withholding Rights. Each of the Parent, the Purchaser, the Company, the Surviving Corporation and the Paying Agent shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement to any holder of shares of Company Common Stock or any other recipient of payments hereunder any amounts as it is required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under the Code, or any other applicable state, local or foreign Tax law. To the extent that amounts are so withheld and timely remitted by the Parent, the Purchaser, the Company, the Surviving Corporation or the Paying

Agent, as the case may be, to the applicable Governmental Entity, such amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the holder or other recipient in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made.

of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, nor any of their respective Affiliates, stockholders or Representatives, nor any other Person acting on behalf of the Company, has made or is making any express or implied representation or warranty with respect to such estimates, projections, forecasts, forward-looking statements or business plans (including the reasonableness of the assumptions underlying such estimates, projections, forecasts, forward-looking statements or business plans), in each case other than the express representations and warranties set forth in this Agreement.

ARTICLE VI

ADDITIONAL AGREEMENTS

(a) No Solicitation or Negotiation. Except as set forth in this Section 6.1, until the Specified Time, neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries shall, and the Company shall cause its directors, officers and senior management not to and shall use reasonable efforts to cause its other Representatives not to, directly or indirectly:

Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, subject to compliance with Section 6.1(c), if at any time prior to the Acceptance Time, (i) the Company has received after the date of this Agreement a written Acquisition Proposal that did not result from a material breach of this Section 6.1, and (ii) the Company Board determines in good faith, after consultation with its financial advisor and outside legal counsel, that such Acquisition Proposal constitutes or could reasonably be expected to result in a Superior Proposal (the Person making such Acquisition Proposal, a “Qualified Person”) and that the failure to take such action described in clause (A) or clause (B) below would be reasonably likely to be inconsistent with the Company Board’s fiduciary duties under applicable law, then the Company may (A) furnish non-public information with respect to the Company and its Subsidiaries to such Qualified Person (and the Representatives of such Qualified Person), pursuant to a confidentiality agreement not materially less restrictive with respect to the confidentiality and non-use obligations of the Qualified Person than the Confidentiality Agreement (provided, that the Company shall substantially concurrently provide to Parent, in accordance with the terms of the Confidentiality Agreement, any non-public written information and any other material non-public information concerning the Company and its Subsidiaries that is provided to (or given access to) such Qualified Person and which was not previously provided or made available to Parent), (B) engage in discussions or negotiations (including solicitation of revised Acquisition Proposals) with any such Qualified Person (and the Representatives of such Qualified Person) regarding any such Acquisition Proposal and (C) amend, or grant a waiver or release under, any standstill or similar agreement with respect to any Company Common Stock with any Qualified Person.

(b) No Change in Recommendation or Alternative Acquisition Agreement.

(i) Prior to the earlier of the Acceptance Time or the termination of this Agreement in accordance its terms, the Company Board shall not, except as set forth in this Section 6.1, (x) fail to include the Company Board Recommendation in the Schedule 14D-9,(y) withhold, withdraw or modify or publicly propose to withhold, withdraw or modify, in a manner adverse to the Parent or the Purchaser, the Company Board Recommendation or (z) approve, endorse or recommend, or publicly propose to approve, endorse, declare the advisability of or

recommend, any Acquisition Proposal (any action described in clauses (x), (y) or (z), a “Company Board Recommendation Change”);

(ii) Prior to the earlier of the Effective Time or the termination of this Agreement in accordance its terms, the Company shall not, and shall not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, enter into any letter of intent, memorandum of understanding, agreement in principle, acquisition agreement, merger agreement or similar agreement (an “Alternative Acquisition Agreement”) providing for a transaction contemplated by any Acquisition Proposal (other than a confidentiality agreement referred to in Section 6.1(a) entered into in the circumstances referred to in Section 6.1(a)).

(iii) Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement (including the provisions of this Section 6.1), at any time prior to the Acceptance Time, the Company Board may (A) effect a Company Board Recommendation Change in response to a Superior Proposal concurrently with causing the Company to terminate this Agreement pursuant to and in accordance with Section 8.1(f) in order to enter into a definitive agreement providing for such Superior Proposal or (B) effect a Company Board Recommendation Change (other than pursuant to clause (z) of the definition thereof) in response to an Intervening Event if (in the case of either clause (A) or (B): (i) the Company Board shall have determined in good faith (after consultation with outside counsel) that the failure to effect a Company Board Recommendation Change would be reasonably likely to be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under applicable law; (ii) the Company has notified the Parent in writing at least four (4) Business Day prior to taking such action that it intends to effect a Company Board Recommendation Change, describing in reasonable detail the reasons for such Company Board Recommendation Change (a “Recommendation Change Notice”) (it being understood that the Recommendation Change Notice shall not, in and of itself, constitute a Company Board Recommendation Change or a Trigger Event for purposes of this Agreement so long as such notice clearly states that it is not a Company Board Recommendation Change and that the Company Board is not changing the Company Board Recommendation); (iii) if requested by the Parent, the Company shall have made available and instructed its Representatives to discuss and negotiate with the Parent’s Representatives any proposed modifications to the terms and conditions of this Agreement (in a manner that would obviate the need to effect such Company Board Recommendation Change) during the four (4) Business Day period following delivery by the Company to the Parent of such Recommendation Change Notice; and (iv) at the end of such four (4) Business Day period, the Company Board shall have determined in good faith (after consultation with outside counsel), after giving effect to the terms of any revised offer by the Parent, that the failure to effect a Company Board Recommendation Change would still be reasonably likely to be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under applicable law and, with respect to a Company Board Recommendation Change in response to a Superior Proposal, the Company Board has determined in good faith (after consultation with financial advisor and outside counsel) that such initial or revised (as applicable) Superior Proposal continues to constitute a Superior Proposal; provided that, if there are any material amendments, revisions or changes to the terms of any such Superior Proposal (including any revision to the amount, form or mix of consideration the Company’s stockholders would receive as a result of the Superior Proposal, whether or not material), the Company shall notify the Parent of each such amendment, revision or change in compliance with Section 6.1(c) and the applicable four (4) Business Day period described above shall be extended until at least two (2) Business Days after

the time that the Parent receives notification from the Company of each such amendment, revision or change and the Company Board shall not make a Company Board Recommendation Change prior to the end of any such period as so extended and compliance with the other requirements described above during such period as so extended.

(c) Notices to the Parent. The Company shall promptly (and in any event within one (1) Business Day) advise the Parent orally and in writing of the Company’s receipt of any Acquisition Proposal, including the material terms and conditions of any such Acquisition Proposal and the identity of the Person making any such Acquisition Proposal. Thereafter, the Company shall keep Parent reasonably informed on a reasonably prompt basis of any material developments with respect to any such Acquisition Proposal, including any material changes to the terms thereof. The Company shall promptly (and, in any event, within one (1) Business Day) provide Parent with copies of all written requests, proposals or offers, including proposed agreements, and oral summaries of any material oral requests, proposals or offers, received by or made to the Company from any Person or group making an Acquisition Proposal. The Company shall not enter into any confidentiality agreement subsequent to the date hereof which prohibits the Company from providing to Parent the information required to be provided to Parent pursuant to this Section 6.1(c).

(d) Certain Permitted Disclosure. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, nothing contained in this Agreement shall prohibit the Company or the Company Board from (i) taking and disclosing to its stockholders a position with respect to a tender offer contemplated by Rule 14d-9 or Rule 14e-2 promulgated under the Exchange Act, or from issuing a “stop, look and listen” statement pending disclosure of its position thereunder (any “stop, look and listen” communication, in and of itself, shall not be deemed to constitute a Company Board Recommendation Change), or (ii) making any disclosure to the Company’s stockholders if, in the good faith judgment of the Company Board, after consultation with outside counsel, failure to so disclose would be reasonably likely to be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under applicable law; provided that this Section 6.1(d) shall not permit the Company Board of Directors to make a Company Board Recommendation Change except to the extent expressly permitted by, and in accordance with, Section 6.1(b).

(e) Cessation of Ongoing Discussions. The Company shall, and shall cause its Representatives to, except with respect to the Parent and the Purchaser, (i) cease immediately all discussions and negotiations that commenced prior to the date of this Agreement regarding any proposal that constitutes, or could reasonably be expected to lead to, an Acquisition Proposal, (ii) request the prompt return or destruction of all confidential or non-public information previously furnished to any Person within the last twelve (12) months for the purpose of evaluating a possible Acquisition Proposal and (iii) terminate access to any physical or electronic data rooms relating to a possible Acquisition Proposal; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not in any way limit or modify any of the Company’s rights under the other provisions of this Section 6.1.

6.2 Nasdaq Listing. The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to continue the listing of the Company Common Stock on the Nasdaq Stock Market until the Effective Time. Each of the parties hereto agrees to cooperate with the other parties hereto and to use its reasonable best efforts to take or cause to be taken, all actions necessary to delist the

Company Common Stock from the Nasdaq Stock Market as promptly as possible following the Effective Time and the deregistration of the Company Common Stock under the Exchange Act as promptly as practicable after such delisting.

6.3 Confidentiality; Access to Information.

(a) Except as expressly modified herein, the Confidentiality Agreement shall continue in full force and effect in accordance with its terms.

(b) During the Pre-Closing Period, notwithstanding anything in the Confidentiality Agreement to the contrary, the Company shall (and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to) afford to the Parent and the Parent’s Representatives, reasonable access, upon reasonable notice, during normal business hours and in a manner that does not unreasonably disrupt or interfere with business operations, to all of its employees (subject to this Section 6.3(b)), properties, books, contracts and records as the Parent shall reasonably request, and, during such period, the Company shall (and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to) furnish promptly to the Parent (i) a copy of each report, schedule, registration statement and other document filed or received by it during such period pursuant to the requirements of federal or state securities laws and (ii) all other information concerning its employees (subject to this Section 6.3(b)), business, properties and assets as the Parent may reasonably request; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to permit any inspection or other access, or to disclose any information, (A) to the extent related to an Acquisition Proposal or a Trigger Event (except as otherwise required by the terms of this Agreement), or (B) that in the reasonable judgment of the Company (after consultation with outside legal counsel) would: (1) violate any legal requirement or contract (including confidentiality provisions thereof), or (2) jeopardize protections afforded the Company under the attorney-client privilege or the attorney work product doctrine (so long as in connection with this clause (B) the Company has used commercially reasonable efforts to make appropriate substitute arrangements to permit reasonable disclosure, to the extent permitted by applicable law and practicable under the circumstances); provided further, that the Company shall not be required to provide access to its employees (other than senior management) other than pursuant to a reasonable integration plan that has been agreed in good faith by the Company and the Parent or as otherwise reasonably approved by the Company; provided further that the Company shall only be required to provide access to its senior management (other than the Chief Executive Officer of the Company) following reasonable advance notice from Parent to the Chief Executive Officer of the Company. Any such information shall be subject to the Confidentiality Agreement. Notwithstanding anything in the Confidentiality Agreement to the contrary, during the Pre-Closing Period, subject to compliance with applicable law, Parent and its Representatives shall be permitted to contact or communicate with any of the licensors, customers or suppliers of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries after providing notice to the Company it being understood that nothing herein shall restrict Parent’s ability to contact or interact with any such persons for reasons other than related to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby.

6.4 Reasonable Best Efforts.

(a) Subject to the terms hereof, including Section 6.1, Section 6.4(b), Section 6.4(c) and Section 6.4(d), each party hereto shall each use its reasonable best efforts to:

(i) take, or cause to be taken, all actions, and do, or cause to be done, and to assist and cooperate with the other parties hereto in doing, all things necessary, proper or advisable to consummate and make effective the transactions contemplated hereby as promptly as practicable;

(ii) as promptly as practicable, obtain any consents, licenses, permits, waivers, approvals, authorizations, or orders required to be obtained by such party (or any of its Subsidiaries) from any Governmental Entity or third party in connection with the authorization, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby; provided, however, that in no event shall the Parent, the Purchaser, the Company or any of their respective Subsidiaries be required to pay any monies (except for filings or similar fees) or (except, in the case of the Parent or the Purchaser, as contemplated by, and subject to, Section 6.4(d)) agree to any material undertaking in connection with any of the foregoing;

(iii) as promptly as practicable, make all necessary filings, and thereafter make any other required submissions, with respect to this Agreement, the Offer and the Merger required under (A) the Exchange Act, and any other applicable federal or state securities laws, (B) the HSR Act, any other applicable Antitrust Laws and any related governmental request thereunder and (C) any other applicable law;

(iv) contest and resist any action, including any administrative or judicial action, and seek to have vacated, lifted, reversed or overturned any decree, judgment, injunction or other order (whether temporary, preliminary or permanent) (a “Restrictive Order”) which has the effect of prohibiting consummation of the Offer or making the Merger illegal or otherwise prohibiting consummation of the Offer, the Merger or the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement; and

(v) execute or deliver any additional instruments necessary to consummate the transactions contemplated by, and to fully carry out the purposes of, this Agreement.

The parties hereto shall cooperate with each other in connection with the making of all such filings and submissions contemplated by the foregoing clauses (ii) or (iii), including providing copies of all such documents to the non-filing Person and its advisors prior to filing and, if requested, accepting reasonable additions, deletions or changes suggested in connection therewith. Each party hereto shall use its reasonable best efforts to furnish to each other all information required for any application or other filing to be made pursuant to any applicable law in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each party may, as each determines is reasonably necessary, designate competitively sensitive material provided to the other pursuant to this Section 6.4 as “Outside Counsel Only.” Such materials and the information contained therein shall be given only to the outside legal counsel of the recipient and will not be disclosed by such outside counsel to directors, officers or employees of the recipient unless express permission is obtained in advance from the source of the materials (Parent or Company, as the case may be) or its legal counsel. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing contained in this Section 6.4(a) shall limit any obligation under any other provision in this Section 6.4.

(b) Without limiting the generality of anything contained in this Section 6.4, each of the Parent and the Company shall as soon as reasonably practicable and in any event within ten (10) Business Days following the date of this Agreement, if required, make an appropriate filing of a Notification and Report Form pursuant to the HSR Act (including seeking early termination of the waiting period under the HSR Act) with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. None of the Parent, the Purchaser or the Company shall commit to or agree with any Governmental Entity to stay, toll or extend any applicable waiting period under the HSR Act or other applicable Antitrust Laws or enter into a timing agreement with any Governmental Entity, without the prior written consent of the other parties.

(c) Subject to the terms hereof, and without limiting the Parent’s obligations under Section 6.4(d), the parties hereto shall, and shall cause each of their respective Subsidiaries to, cooperate and use their respective reasonable best efforts to obtain any government clearances or approvals required for the Closing under any Antitrust Law, to respond to any government requests for information under any Antitrust Law, to cause any waiting periods under any applicable Antitrust Laws to expire or be terminated, and to contest and resist any action, including any legislative, administrative or judicial action, and to have vacated, lifted, reversed or overturned any Restrictive Order. The parties hereto shall consult and cooperate with one another, and consider in good faith the views of one another, in connection with, and provide to the other parties in advance, any analyses, appearances, presentations, memoranda, briefs, arguments, opinions and proposals made or submitted by or on behalf of any party hereto in connection with proceedings under or relating to any Antitrust Law. To the extent permitted by law or Governmental Entities reviewing the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, the parties will provide each other the opportunity to participate in meetings and other substantive conversations with any such Governmental Entities.

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Parent shall propose, negotiate, offer to commit and effect (and if such offer is accepted, commit to and effect), by consent decree, hold separate order or otherwise, the sale, divestiture or disposition of such assets or businesses of the Parent or, effective as of the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation, or their respective Subsidiaries, or otherwise offer to take or offer to commit to take any action which it is capable of taking and if the offer is accepted, take or commit to take such action that limits its freedom of action with respect to, or its ability to retain, any of the businesses, services or assets of the Parent, the Surviving Corporation or their respective Subsidiaries, in order to avoid the entry of, or to effect the dissolution of, any Restrictive Order, which would have the effect of preventing or delaying the Acceptance Time beyond the Outside Date; provided, however, that neither the Parent nor any of its Subsidiaries shall be required to take any of the actions under this Section 6.4(d) or any other provision of Section 6.4 that would reasonably be expected to have, either individually or in the aggregate, a material adverse effect on the Parent, the Company, or any of their respective Subsidiaries. For the purposes of this provision, a material adverse effect shall be measured relative to the size of the Company and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole, regardless of whether such actions are imposed on, or affect, the Parent, the Company, or any of their respective Subsidiaries.

(e) For the avoidance of doubt, subject to Section 6.4(d), the Parent shall take any and all actions necessary in order to ensure that (i) no requirement for a waiver, consent, approval or termination of applicable waiting periods of the Federal Trade Commission, the

Antitrust Division of the Department of Justice, any State Attorney General or other Governmental Entity and (ii) no decree, judgment, injunction, temporary restraining order or any other order in any suit or proceeding, in each case pursuant to any Antitrust Law, would preclude consummation of the Offer or the Merger by the Outside Date.

6.5 Public Disclosure. Except as may be required by law or stock market regulations, (a) the press release announcing the execution of this Agreement shall be issued only in such form as shall be mutually agreed upon by the Company and the Parent and (b) the Parent and the Company shall use their respective commercially reasonable efforts to consult with the other party before issuing any other press release or otherwise making any public statement with respect to the Offer, the Merger or this Agreement that is not limited to previously approved statements; provided, however, that these restrictions shall not apply to any Company communications (or the Parent’s or the Purchaser’s response thereto) in connection with an Acquisition Proposal, a Trigger Event or a Recommendation Change Notice.

6.6 Indemnification.

(a) From and after the Acceptance Time, each of the Parent and, from and after the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation shall, jointly and severally, indemnify and hold harmless each Indemnified Party against all claims, losses, liabilities, damages, judgments, fines and reasonable fees, costs and expenses, including attorneys’ fees and disbursements, incurred in connection with any claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, arising out of or pertaining to the fact that the Indemnified Party is or was an officer, director, manager, employee or agent of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or, while a director, manager or officer of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, is or was serving at the request of the Company or one of its Subsidiaries as an officer, director, manager, employee or agent of another Person, in respect of acts or omissions occurring or alleged to have occurred at or prior to the Effective Time, whether asserted or claimed prior to, at or after the Effective Time, in each case to the fullest extent that the Company would have been permitted to do so under applicable law. Each Indemnified Party will be entitled to advancement of expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred in the defense of any such claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation from each of the Parent and the Surviving Corporation (without duplication) within ten (10) Business Days of receipt by the Parent from the Indemnified Party of a request therefor; provided that any Indemnified Party to whom expenses are to be advanced provides prior to any receipt of such advances an undertaking, to the extent required by the DGCL or other applicable law, to repay such advances if it is determined by a final determination of a court of competent jurisdiction (which determination is not subject to appeal) that such Indemnified Party is not entitled to indemnification under applicable law.

(b) From the Effective Time through the six-year anniversary of the date on which the Effective Time occurs, the certificate of incorporation and bylaws of the Surviving Corporation shall contain, and the Parent shall cause the certificate of incorporation and bylaws of the Surviving Corporation to so contain, provisions no less favorable with respect to indemnification, advancement of expenses and exculpation of present and former directors and officers of the Company and its Subsidiaries in respect of acts or omissions occurring or alleged

to have occurred at or prior to the Effective Time than are set forth in the certificate of incorporation and bylaws of the Company as in effect on the date of this Agreement.

(c) Subject to this Section 6.6(c), the Surviving Corporation shall either (i) maintain, and the Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to maintain, at no expense to the beneficiaries, in effect for six (6) years from the Effective Time the Current D&O Insurance with respect to matters existing or occurring at or prior to the Effective Time (including the transactions contemplated by this Agreement), so long as the annual premium therefor would not exceed the Maximum Premium, or (ii) purchase a Reporting Tail Endorsement and maintain such endorsement in full force and effect for its full term;. Subject to this Section 6.6(c), if the Company’s or the Surviving Corporation’s existing insurance contemplated by the prior sentence expires, is terminated or canceled during such six-year period or exceeds the Maximum Premium, the Surviving Corporation shall obtain, and the Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to obtain, as much directors’ and officers’ liability insurance as can be obtained for the remainder of such period for an annualized premium not in excess of the Maximum Premium, on terms and conditions no less advantageous, in the aggregate, to the Indemnified Parties than the Current D&O Insurance. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Company may, and the Company shall if requested by Parent, prior to the Acceptance Time, purchase a Reporting Tail Endorsement (after reasonable consultation with the Parent), provided that the Company does not pay or commit to pay, in the aggregate, more than the Maximum Premium for such Reporting Tail Endorsement without discussing in good faith with the Parent the Company’s discussions with its insurers, the quoted cost and reasons therefor and considering in good faith any alternatives that the Parent may suggest to the Company in lieu of obtaining such Reporting Tail Endorsement. If a Reporting Tail Endorsement has been purchased by the Company prior to the Acceptance Time, the Parent shall cause such Reporting Tail Endorsement to be maintained in full force and effect for its full term and cause all obligations thereunder to be honored by the Surviving Corporation and, in such case, the Parent’s and the Surviving Corporation’s obligations under this Section 6.6(c) shall be deemed satisfied.

(d) In the event the Parent or the Surviving Corporation or any of their respective successors or assigns (i) consolidates with or merges into any other Person and shall not be the continuing or surviving corporation or entity of such consolidation or merger or (ii) transfers all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any Person, then, and in each such case, proper provision shall be made so that the successors and assigns of the Parent or the Surviving Corporation, as the case may be, shall expressly assume (or assume by operation of law) and succeed to the obligations set forth in this Section 6.6.

(e) If any Indemnified Party makes any claim for indemnification or advancement of expenses under this Section 6.6 that is denied by the Parent and/or the Company or the Surviving Corporation, and a court of competent jurisdiction determines that the Indemnified Party is entitled to such indemnification or advancement of expenses, then the Parent, the Company or the Surviving Corporation shall pay the Indemnified Party’s costs and expenses, including reasonable legal fees and expenses, incurred by the Indemnified Party in connection with pursuing his or her claims to the fullest extent permitted by law.

(f) The provisions of this Section 6.6 are intended to be in addition to the rights otherwise available to any Indemnified Party by law, charter, statute, bylaw or agreement,

and shall operate for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable by, each of the Indemnified Parties and their heirs.

6.7 Notification of Certain Matters. Prior to the Specified Time, the Parent shall give prompt notice to the Company, and the Company shall give prompt notice to the Parent, of (a) the occurrence, or failure to occur, of any event, which occurrence or failure to occur is reasonably likely to cause any representation or warranty of such Person (or, in case of the Parent’s obligation to provide notice, any representation or warranty of the Purchaser) contained in this Agreement to be untrue or inaccurate (i) in the case of any representation or warranty of the Company, in any manner that would result in the failure of the condition set forth in clause (c)(ii) of Annex I or (ii) in the case of any representation or warranty of the Parent or the Purchaser, in any material respect, in each case at any time from and after the date of this Agreement until the Specified Time or (b) any material breach by such Person (or, in case of the Parent’s obligation to provide notice, any material breach by the Purchaser) of any covenant or agreement set forth in this Agreement. The delivery of any notice pursuant to this Section 6.7 shall not affect or be deemed to modify any representation or warranty in this Agreement or the conditions to the obligations of the parties to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the remedies available to the parties hereunder.

6.8 Employee Benefits Matters.

(a) From and after the Effective Time, the Parent shall, and shall cause the Company (including the Surviving Corporation) to, carry out all employer responsibilities under all Company Employee Plans in accordance with their terms as in effect immediately before the Effective Time. For a period of one year following the Effective Time, the Parent shall provide, or shall cause to be provided, to each Company Employee (i) a base salary, commission opportunities, annual bonus opportunities and the value of annual equity awards no less favorable in the aggregate than the total compensation package (including base salary, commission opportunities, annual bonus opportunities and value of annual equity awards) provided to such Company Employee immediately before the Effective Time and (ii) other employee benefits that are substantially comparable, in the aggregate, to the other benefits provided to such Company Employee immediately before the Effective Time.

(b) For all purposes (including purposes of vesting, eligibility to participate and level of benefits) under the New Plans, each Company Employee shall, subject to applicable law and applicable tax qualification requirements, be credited with his or her years of service with the Company and its Subsidiaries and their respective predecessors before the Effective Time, to the same extent as such Company Employee was entitled, before the Effective Time, to credit for such service under any similar Company Employee Plan in which such Company Employee participated or was eligible to participate immediately prior to the Effective Time; provided that the foregoing shall not apply to the extent that its application would result in a duplication of benefits or for purposes of benefit accrual under any defined benefit plan. In addition, and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (i) each Company Employee shall be immediately eligible to participate, without any waiting time, in any and all New Plans to the extent coverage under such New Plan is of the same type as the Company Employee Plan in which such Company Employee participated immediately before the Effective Time (such plans, collectively, the “Old Plans”), and (ii)(A) for purposes of each New Plan providing medical,

dental, pharmaceutical or vision benefits to any Company Employee, the Parent shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause all pre-existing condition exclusions and actively-at-work requirements of such New Plan to be waived for such Company Employee and his or her covered dependents, unless such conditions would not have been waived under the Old Plan of the Company or its Subsidiaries in which such Company Employee participated immediately prior to the Effective Time and (B) the Parent shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause any eligible expenses incurred by such employee and his or her covered dependents during the portion of the plan year of the Old Plan ending on the date such employee’s participation in the corresponding New Plan begins to be taken into account under such New Plan for purposes of satisfying all deductible, coinsurance and maximum out-of-pocket requirements applicable to such employee and his or her covered dependents for the applicable plan year as if such amounts had been paid in accordance with such New Plan.

(c) If any Company Employee (who is not otherwise a party to an employment agreement providing for severance benefits) whose employment is terminated on or prior to the first anniversary of the Effective Time under circumstances under which such Company Employee would have received severance benefits under the Company Severance Practices, the Parent will cause the Surviving Corporation to provide that such Company Employee shall be entitled to severance benefits from the Surviving Corporation that are equal to the severance benefits that would have been paid under the Company Severance Practices as in existence on the date of this Agreement.

(d) From and after the Effective Time, the Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries to assume in accordance with their terms, all contracts, agreements, arrangements, policies, plans and commitments of the Company and the Subsidiaries of the Company as in effect immediately prior to the Acceptance Time that are applicable to any current or former employees or directors of the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company.

(e) The provisions of Sections 6.8(a) through 6.8(c) shall not apply to persons employed by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries outside the United States, it being agreed that such persons shall be treated in accordance with applicable law and the terms of any contracts covering them.

(f) At the request of the Parent made at least five (5) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, the Company shall take all steps necessary to terminate the Cynosure, Inc. 401(k) Plan and any and all of the Company Employee Plans that are intended to be qualified within the meaning of Sections 401(a) and 401(k) of the Code (such plans, the “Company 401(k) Plans”), with such termination to be effective as of the day immediately prior to the Closing Date and reflected in the resolutions of the Company Board (the form and substance of which resolutions shall be subject to the prior review and approval of the Parent). In connection with the termination of the Company 401(k) Plans, the Parent shall use commercially reasonable efforts to permit each Company Employee to make rollover contributions of “eligible rollover distributions” (within the meaning Section 401(a)(31) of the Code), in an amount equal to the full account balance distributed or distributable to such Company Employee from each Company 401(k) Plan, including, subject to vendor’s capabilities and procedures, notes evidencing any

outstanding loans, from such Company 401(k) Plan to a Parent 401(k) plan that is qualified within the meaning of Sections 401(a) and 401(k) of the Code.

(g) Without limiting Section 10.4, nothing in this Agreement shall confer upon any Company Employee any right to continue in the employ or service of the Parent, the Surviving Corporation or any Affiliate of the Parent, or shall interfere with or restrict in any way the rights of the Parent, the Surviving Corporation or any Affiliate of Parent to discharge or terminate the services of any Company Employee at any time for any reason whatsoever, with or without cause. Nothing in this Section 6.8 shall (i) be deemed or construed to be an amendment or other modification of any Company Employee Plan or employee benefit plan of the Parent or any of its Affiliates, or (ii) create any third-party rights in any current or former service provider of the Company or its Affiliates (or any beneficiaries or dependents thereof).

6.9 State Takeover Laws. If any “fair price,” “business combination” or “control share acquisition” statute or other similar anti-takeover statute or regulation (collectively, an “Anti-Takeover Law”) is or may become applicable to any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, the Company, the Company Board, Parent and Purchaser, as applicable, each shall use its respective reasonable best efforts to (a) take such actions as are reasonably necessary so that the transactions contemplated hereunder may be consummated as promptly as practicable on the terms contemplated hereby and (b) otherwise take all such actions as are necessary to eliminate the effects of any such statute or regulation on such transactions; provided that, the Parent and the Purchaser shall only be required to take any action pursuant to this Section 6.9 if they have received written notice from the Company regarding the applicability of such Anti-Takeover Law and the Company has requested in such written notice that the Parent and the Purchaser take specified actions to render such Antitakeover Law inapplicable.

6.10 Rule 16b-3. Prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall take all reasonable steps as may be required to cause any dispositions of Company equity securities (including derivative securities) pursuant to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement by each individual who is a director or officer of the Company and who would otherwise be subject to Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act to be exempt under such rule to the extent permitted by applicable law.

6.11 Rule 14d-10 Matters. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Company shall not, from and after the date hereof and until the Specified Time, enter into, establish, amend or modify any plan, program, agreement or arrangement pursuant to which compensation is paid or payable, or pursuant to which benefits are provided, in each case, to any current or former director, manager, officer, employee or independent contractor of the Company, unless prior to such entry into, establishment, amendment or modification, the compensation committee of the Company Board (each member of which the Company Board determined is an “independent director” within the meaning of the applicable Nasdaq Marketplace Rules and shall be an “independent director” in accordance with the requirements of Rule 14d-10(d)(2) under the Exchange Act at the time of any such action) shall have taken all such steps as may reasonably be necessary to (a) approve as an “employment compensation, severance or other employee benefit arrangement” within the meaning of Rule 14d-10(d)(1) under the Exchange Act each such plan, program or arrangement, and (b) satisfy the requirements of the non-exclusive safe harbor under Rule 14d-10(d)(2) under the Exchange Act

with respect to such plan, program, agreement or arrangement; provided that nothing in this Section 6.11 shall be construed to permit the Company to take any action that is expressly prohibited by the terms of this Agreement.

6.12 Control of Operations. Without in any way limiting any party’s rights or obligations under this Agreement, (a) nothing contained in this Agreement shall give the Parent or the Purchaser, directly or indirectly, the right to control or direct the Company’s operations prior to the Acceptance Time and (b) prior to the Acceptance Time, the Company shall exercise, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, complete control and supervision over its and its Subsidiaries’ operations.

6.13 Security Holder Litigation. In the event that any litigation related to this Agreement, the Offer, the Merger or the other transactions contemplated hereby is brought by any stockholder of the Company or any holder of the Company’s other securities against the Company and/or its directors or officers, the Company shall promptly notify Parent of such litigation and shall keep Parent reasonably informed with respect to the status thereof. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein (but subject to the following sentence), the Company shall have the right to control the defense of any litigation related to this Agreement, the Offer, the Merger or the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement brought by any stockholder of the Company or any holder of the Company’s other securities against the Company and/or its directors or officers, provided that the Company shall give the Parent the opportunity to participate, at the Parent’s expense, in the defense of any such litigation and the Company shall give due consideration to the Parent’s advice with respect to such litigation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Company shall not settle or enter into any negotiations or agreement with respect to the settlement of any such litigation without the prior written consent of Parent (which consent shall not be unreasonably conditioned, withheld or delayed (provided that Parent shall not withhold its consent if the settlement involves (a) solely the payment of an aggregate amount not to exceed $350,000 and supplemental disclosure (provided that the Parent shall be given reasonable opportunity to review and comment on any supplemental disclosure and the Company shall consider in good faith any reasonable changes thereto proposed by Parent) , (b) no admission of wrongdoing or liability, (c) no injunctive or similar relief, (d) a complete and unconditional release of all defendants in respect of all disclosure claims then pending relating to this Agreement, the Offer, the Merger or the other transactions contemplated hereby and (e) the withdrawal or dismissal of all claims and actions then pending relating to this Agreement, the Offer, the Merger or the other transactions contemplated hereby)). Each of the Parent and the Company shall notify the other promptly of the commencement of any such stockholder litigation of which it has received notice.

6.14 Director Resignations. Prior to the then-scheduled expiration of the Offer, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause to be delivered to Parent resignations executed by each director of the Company in office as of immediately prior to the Effective Time and effective upon the Effective Time (resigning from all directorships with the Company and its Subsidiaries).

(c) by either the Parent or the Company at any time prior to the Acceptance Time if a Governmental Entity of competent jurisdiction shall have issued a nonappealable final order, decree or ruling or taken any other nonappealable final action, in each case having the effect of permanently restraining, enjoining or otherwise prohibiting the acceptance for payment of, and payment for, shares of Company Common Stock pursuant to the Offer or consummation of the Merger; provided, however, that a party hereto shall not be permitted to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 8.1(c) if the failure of such party (or, in the case of the Parent, Purchaser) to fulfill any obligation under this Agreement has been a principal cause of or resulted in the issuance of any such order, decree, ruling or the taking of such other action;

(d) by the Parent or the Company if the Offer (as it may have been extended pursuant to Section 1.1(b)) expires as a result of the non-satisfaction of the Minimum Condition, without the Purchaser having accepted for payment any shares of Company Common Stock validly tendered (and not validly withdrawn) pursuant to the Offer; provided, however, that a party hereto shall not be permitted to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 8.1(d) if the failure of such party (or, in the case of the Parent, Purchaser) to fulfill any obligation under this Agreement has been a principal cause of or resulted in the non-satisfaction of the Minimum Condition;

(g) by the Parent, prior to the Acceptance Time, if there has been a breach of, inaccuracy in or failure to perform any of the Company’s representations, warranties, covenants or agreements set forth in this Agreement, which breach, inaccuracy or failure to perform (i) would cause any of the conditions set forth in clauses (c)(ii) or (c)(iii) of Annex I not to be satisfied, and (ii) is not capable of being cured by the Outside Date or, if capable of being cured by the Outside Date, shall not have been cured within twenty (20) Business Days following receipt by the Company of written notice of such breach, inaccuracy or failure to perform from the Parent; provided that neither the Parent nor the Purchaser is then in material breach of any of its representations, warranties or covenants under this Agreement;

(h) by the Company, prior to the Acceptance Time, if there has been a breach of, inaccuracy in or failure to perform any of the Parent’s or the Purchaser’s representations, warranties, covenants or agreements set forth in this Agreement, which breach, inaccuracy or failure to perform (i) shall have had or would reasonably likely to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Parent Material Adverse Effect and (ii) is not capable of being cured by the Outside Date or, if capable of being cured by the Outside Date, shall not have been cured within twenty (20) Business Days following receipt by the Parent of written notice of such breach, inaccuracy or failure to perform from the Company; provided that the Company is not then in material breach of any of its representations, warranties or covenants under this Agreement; or

8.2 Effect of Termination. In the event of termination of this Agreement as provided in Section 8.1, this Agreement shall immediately become void and there shall be no liability or obligation on the part of the Parent, the Company, the Purchaser or their respective Representatives, stockholders or Affiliates (except as provided in Section 8.3(d)); provided that, subject to Section 8.3(d), (a) any such termination shall not relieve any party hereto from liability for fraud or any Willful Breach and (b) the provisions of Section 6.3(a) (Confidentiality), this Section 8.2 (Effect of Termination), Section 8.3 (Fees and Expenses), Article IX (Defined Terms) and Article X (Miscellaneous) of this Agreement and the Confidentiality Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and survive any termination of this Agreement.

8.3 Fees and Expenses.

(a) Except as set forth in this Section 8.3, all fees and expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby shall be paid by the party incurring such fees and expenses, whether or not the Offer or the Merger is consummated.

(b) The Company shall pay the Parent the Termination Fee in the event that this Agreement is terminated:

(i) by the Parent pursuant to Section 8.1(e);

(ii) by the Company pursuant to Section 8.1(f); or

(iii) by either the Parent or the Company pursuant to Section 8.1(b) or Section 8.1(d) or the Parent pursuant to Section 8.1(g) (arising from a breach of the Company’s covenants or agreements set forth in this Agreement), if (A) before the date of such termination, an Acquisition Proposal shall have been publicly announced and not irrevocably withdrawn at least two (2) Business Days prior to the earlier of the date of such termination, the Outside Date and the-then scheduled expiration date of the Offer and (B) within 12 months after the date of such termination, any Acquisition Proposal is consummated or a definitive agreement with respect to any Acquisition Proposal is entered into and such Acquisition Proposal is thereafter consummated;

provided, however, that, for purposes of Section 8.3(b)(iii), all references to “20%” and “80%” in the definition of “Acquisition Proposal” shall be deemed to be references to “50%”. Any fee due under Section 8.3(b)(i) shall be paid by or on behalf of the Company to the Parent by wire transfer of same-day funds within two (2) Business Days after the date of termination of this Agreement. Any fee due under Section 8.3(b)(ii) shall be paid by or on behalf of the Company to the Parent by wire transfer of same-day funds prior to or simultaneously with (and as a condition to the effectiveness of) such termination. Any fee due under Section 8.3(b)(iii) shall

be paid by or on behalf of the Company to the Parent by wire transfer of same-day funds within one (1) Business Day after the date any transaction referenced in clause (B) of Section 8.3(b)(iii) is consummated.

(c) In no event shall the Company be required to pay the Termination Fee on more than one occasion, whether or not the Termination Fee may be payable under more than one provision of this Agreement at the same or at different times and the occurrence of different events.

(d) The agreements contained in this Section 8.3 are an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and the parties hereto would not enter into this Agreement absent such agreement. Notwithstanding Section 8.2 or any other provision of this Agreement, other than in the case of any Willful Breach of Section 1.2, Section 6.1 or Section 6.4, payment of the fees described in this Section 8.3 shall constitute the sole and exclusive remedy of the Parent and the Purchaser in connection with any termination of this Agreement in the circumstances in which such fees became payable. Other than in the case of any Willful Breach of Section 1.2, Section 6.1 or Section 6.4, in the event that the Parent shall receive the Termination Fee, the receipt of such fee shall be deemed to be liquidated damages for any and all losses or damages suffered or incurred by the Parent, the Purchaser, any of their respective Affiliates or any other Person in connection with this Agreement (and the termination hereof), the transactions contemplated hereby (and the abandonment thereof) or any matter forming the basis for such termination, and none of the Parent, the Purchaser, any of their respective Affiliates or any other Person shall be entitled to bring or maintain any other claim, action or proceeding against the Company or any of its Affiliates or any Representative of the Company or any of its Affiliates arising out of this Agreement, any of the transactions contemplated hereby or any matters forming the basis for such termination. If the Company fails promptly to pay the Termination Fee when due and payable pursuant to this Agreement and, in order to obtain such payment, the Parent commences an action or other proceeding that results in an award against the Company for such fee, the Company shall pay interest on the amount of such fee from the date such payment was required to be made until the date of payment at the prime lending rate as published in The Wall Street Journal in effect on the date such payment was required to be made.

Any term or provision (or part thereof) of this Agreement that is invalid or unenforceable in any situation in any jurisdiction shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the remaining terms and provisions (or parts thereof) hereof or the validity or enforceability of the offending term or provision (or part thereof) in any other situation or in any other jurisdiction. If the final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction declares that any term or provision (or part thereof) hereof is invalid or unenforceable, the court making such determination shall have the power to limit the term or provision (or part thereof), to delete specific words or phrases, or to replace any invalid or unenforceable term or provision (or part thereof) with a term or provision (or part thereof) that is valid and enforceable and that comes closest to expressing the intention of the invalid or unenforceable term or provision (or part thereof), and this Agreement shall be enforceable as so modified. In the event such court does not exercise the power granted to it in the prior sentence, the parties hereto shall replace such invalid or unenforceable term or provision (or part thereof) with a valid and enforceable term or provision (or part thereof) that will achieve, to the extent possible, the economic, business and other purposes of such invalid or unenforceable term (or part thereof).

10.7 Counterparts and Signature. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts (including by facsimile or by an electronic scan (including by portable document format (.pdf)) delivered by electronic mail), each of which shall be deemed an original but all of which together shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when counterparts have been signed by each of the parties hereto and delivered to the other parties, it being understood that all parties need not sign the same counterpart. This Agreement may be executed and delivered by facsimile or by an electronic scan (including by portable document format (.pdf)) delivered by electronic mail.

10.8 Interpretation. Except where expressly stated otherwise in this Agreement, the following rules of interpretation apply to this Agreement: (a) “include”, “includes” and “including” are not limiting; (b) “hereof”, “hereto”, “hereby”, “herein” and “hereunder” and words of similar import when used in this Agreement refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular provision of this Agreement; (c) “date hereof” refers to the date set forth in the initial caption of this Agreement; (d) “extent” in the phrase “to the extent” means the degree to which a subject or other thing extends, and such phrase does not mean simply “if”; (e) descriptive headings, the table of defined terms and the table of contents are inserted for convenience only and do not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement; (f) definitions contained in this Agreement are applicable to the singular as well as the plural forms of such terms; (g) references to a Person are also to its permitted successors and assigns; (h) references to an “Article”, “Section”, “Recital”, “preamble”, “Annex”, “Exhibit” or “Schedule” refer to an Article, Section, Recital or preamble of, or an Annex, Exhibit or Schedule to, this Agreement; (i) references to “$” or otherwise to dollar amounts refer to the lawful currency of the United States; (j) references to a federal, state, local or foreign statute or law include any rules, regulations and delegated legislation issued thereunder; (k) references to a communication by a regulatory agency include a communication by the staff of such regulatory agency and (l) references to “made available” mean made available through an electronic data room, through XXXXX or otherwise at least four (4) hours prior to the execution of this Agreement.

10.9 Governing Law.

10.10 Remedies; Waiver of Jury Trial.

(a) Except as otherwise provided herein, any and all remedies herein expressly conferred upon a Person will be deemed cumulative with and not exclusive of any other remedy conferred hereby, or by law or equity upon such Person, and the exercise by a Person of any one remedy will not preclude the exercise of any other remedy.

(b) Irreparable damage would occur in the event that any provision of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with its specific terms or were otherwise breached, as money damages or other legal remedies would not be an adequate remedy for any such damages. Accordingly, in the event of any breach or threatened breach by the Company, on the one hand, or the Parent and/or the Purchaser, on the other hand, of any of their respective covenants or obligations set forth in this Agreement, the Company, on the one hand, and the Parent and the Purchaser, on the other hand, shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent or restrain breaches or threatened breaches of this Agreement, by the other (as applicable), and to specifically enforce the terms and provisions of this Agreement to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of, or to enforce compliance with, the covenants and obligations of the other under this Agreement, in each case without posting a bond or other security. No party hereto shall raise any objections to the availability of the equitable remedy of specific performance to prevent or restrain breaches or threatened breaches of this Agreement, or to specifically enforce the terms and provisions of this Agreement to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of, or to enforce compliance with, the covenants and obligations of the parties under this Agreement. Time shall be of the essence for purposes of this Agreement.

(c) EACH PARTY ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT ANY CONTROVERSY WHICH MAY ARISE UNDER THIS AGREEMENT IS LIKELY TO INVOLVE COMPLICATED AND DIFFICULT ISSUES, AND THEREFORE EACH SUCH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT SUCH PARTY MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LITIGATION ARISING OUT OF, RELATING TO OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED HEREBY, INCLUDING THE OFFER AND THE MERGER. EACH PARTY CERTIFIES AND ACKNOWLEDGES THAT (I) NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER, (II) EACH PARTY UNDERSTANDS AND HAS CONSIDERED THE IMPLICATION OF THIS WAIVER, (III) EACH PARTY MAKES THIS WAIVER VOLUNTARILY, AND (IV) EACH PARTY HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION.

10.11 Submission to Jurisdiction. Each of the parties hereto (a) consents to submit itself to the exclusive personal jurisdiction of the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware, New Castle County, or, if that court does not have jurisdiction, a federal court sitting in the State of Delaware in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (b) agrees that all claims in respect of such action or proceeding shall be heard and determined in any such court, (c) agrees that it shall not attempt to deny or defeat such personal jurisdiction by motion or other request for leave from any such court, and (d) agrees not to bring any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any of the transaction contemplated by this Agreement in any other court. Each of the parties hereto waives any defense of inconvenient forum to the maintenance of any action or proceeding so brought and waives any bond, surety or other security that might be required of any other Person with respect thereto. Any party hereto may make service on another party by sending or delivering a copy of the process to the party to be served at the address and in the

manner provided for the giving of notices in Section 10.2. Nothing in this Section 10.11, however, shall affect the right of any Person to serve legal process in any other manner permitted by law.

10.12 Disclosure Schedule. The Company Disclosure Schedule shall be arranged in Sections corresponding to the numbered sections contained in this Agreement, and the disclosure in any section shall qualify (a) the corresponding section of this Agreement and (b) the other sections of this Agreement, to the extent that it is reasonably apparent from a reading of such disclosure that it also qualifies or applies to such other sections; provided that no disclosure in any Section of the Company Disclosure Schedule shall modify or qualify any provision of Section 5.1 unless such disclosure is expressly included in Section 5.1 of the Company Disclosure Schedule. The inclusion of any information in the Company Disclosure Schedule shall not be deemed to be an admission or acknowledgment, in and of itself, that such information is required by the terms hereof to be disclosed, is material, has resulted in or would result in a Company Material Adverse Effect or is outside the Ordinary Course of Business.

10.13 Parent Guarantee. The Parent agrees to take all action necessary to cause the Purchaser or, after the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation, as applicable, to perform all of its agreements, covenants and obligations under this Agreement.

ANNEX I

Conditions of the Offer

All terms defined in the Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Agreement”) of which this Annex I is a part and used in this Annex I shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Agreement.

Notwithstanding any other provisions of the Offer or the Agreement, the Purchaser shall not be required (and the Parent shall not be required to cause the Purchaser) to irrevocably accept for purchase or, subject to any applicable rules and regulations of the SEC, including Rule 14e-1(c) under the Exchange Act, to pay for any shares of Company Common Stock validly tendered pursuant to the Offer (and not validly withdrawn), and may terminate or amend the Offer in accordance with (and to the extent permitted by) the terms of the Agreement, and may postpone the acceptance of, or payment for, any shares of Company Common Stock in accordance with (and to the extent permitted by) the terms of the Agreement, if:

(a) immediately prior to the-then scheduled expiration of the Offer, the number of shares of Company Common Stock validly tendered and not validly withdrawn, together with any shares of Company Common Stock beneficially owned by the Parent or any Subsidiary of the Parent, does not equal at least one share more than half of all shares of Company Common Stock then outstanding (the “Minimum Condition”);

(b) immediately prior to the-then scheduled expiration of the Offer, any waiting period (and any extensions thereof) and any approvals or clearances applicable to the Offer or the consummation of the Merger under the HSR Act and the German Act Against Restraints of Competition of 1958, as amended, shall not have expired, or been terminated or obtained, as applicable; or

(i) any Governmental Entity of competent jurisdiction shall have enacted, issued, promulgated, enforced or entered any order, executive order, temporary restraining order, stay, decree, judgment or injunction (preliminary or permanent) or statute, rule or regulation which has the effect of prohibiting the consummation of the Offer or making the Merger illegal or otherwise prohibiting consummation of the Offer or the Merger;

(ii) (A) the representations and warranties of the Company contained in Section 3.7(a) shall not be true and correct in all respects as of the expiration of the Offer as though made on and as of the expiration of the Offer (except that representations and warranties that by their terms speak specifically as of the date of this Agreement or another date, in which case as of such date); (B) the representations and warranties of the Company contained in the third sentence of Section 3.2(a) and in the first and second sentences of Section 3.2(c) shall not be true and correct in all respects as of the expiration of the Offer as though made on and as of such date (except that representations and warranties that by their terms speak specifically as of the date of this Agreement or another date, in which case as of such date), except for any de minimis exceptions; (C) the representations and warranties of the Company set forth in the first sentence of Section 3.1 and in Section 3.4(a), Section 3.4(e), Section 3.19 and Section 3.20 shall

not be true and correct in all material respects as of the expiration of the Offer as though made on and as of the expiration of the Offer (except that representations and warranties that by their terms speak specifically as of the date of this Agreement or another date, in which case as of such date); and (D) all the other representations and warranties of the Company set forth in this Agreement shall not be true and correct as of the expiration of the Offer (without giving effect to any qualification as to materiality or Company Material Adverse Effect contained therein) as though made on and as of the expiration of the Offer (except that representations and warranties that by their terms speak specifically as of the date of this Agreement or another date, in which case as of such date), except where any failures of any such representations and warranties to be true and correct (without giving effect to any qualification as to materiality or Company Material Adverse Effect contained therein) have not had and would not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Company Material Adverse Effect.

(iii) the Company shall have failed to perform or comply with in all material respects its covenants and obligations required to be performed or complied with by it under the Agreement at or prior to the expiration of the Offer;

(iv) the Parent and the Purchaser shall not have received a certificate executed by the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, dated the expiration date of the Offer, confirming on behalf of the Company that the conditions set forth in clauses (c)(ii) and (c)(iii) of this Annex I have been duly satisfied; or

(v) the Agreement shall have been validly terminated in accordance with Article VIII of the Agreement.

The foregoing conditions shall be in addition to, and not a limitation of, the rights and obligations of the Parent and the Purchaser to extend, terminate or modify the Offer pursuant to the terms of the Agreement. The foregoing conditions may be waived by the Parent or the Purchaser in whole or in part at any time and from time to time in their sole and absolute discretion (except for the Minimum Condition), subject to the terms of the Agreement and the applicable rules and regulations of the SEC. The failure by the Parent or the Purchaser at any time to exercise any of the foregoing rights shall not be deemed a waiver of any such right and each such right shall be deemed an ongoing right which may be asserted at any time and from time to time.

If the General Corporation Law of Delaware is amended to authorize corporate action further eliminating or limiting the personal liability of directors, then the liability of a director of the Corporation shall be eliminated or limited to the fullest extent permitted by the General Corporation Law of Delaware, as so amended.

ARTICLE X

The Corporation shall provide indemnification as follows:

1. Actions, Suits and Proceedings Other than by or in the Right of the Corporation. The Corporation shall indemnify each person who was or is a party or threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of the Corporation) by reason of the fact that he or she is or was, or has agreed to become, a director or officer of the Corporation, or is or was serving, or has agreed to serve, at the request of the Corporation, as a director, officer, partner, employee or trustee of, or in a similar capacity with, another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise (including any employee benefit plan) (all such persons being referred to hereafter as an “Indemnitee”), or by reason of any action alleged to have been taken or omitted in such capacity or in any other capacity while serving as a director, officer, partner, employee or trustee, against all expenses (including attorneys’ fees), liability, loss, judgments, fines, ERISA taxes or penalties and amounts paid in settlement actually

Exhibit A – Page 3

and reasonably incurred by or on behalf of Indemnitee in connection with such action, suit or proceeding and any appeal therefrom, if Indemnitee acted in good faith and in a manner which Indemnitee reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the Corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful. The termination of any action, suit or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, shall not, of itself, create a presumption that Indemnitee did not act in good faith and in a manner which Indemnitee reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the Corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had reasonable cause to believe that his or her conduct was unlawful.

2. Actions or Suits by or in the Right of the Corporation. The Corporation shall indemnify any Indemnitee who was or is a party to or threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in the right of the Corporation to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that Indemnitee is or was, or has agreed to become, a director or officer of the Corporation, or is or was serving, or has agreed to serve, at the request of the Corporation, as a director, officer, partner, employee or trustee of, or in a similar capacity with, another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise (including any employee benefit plan), or by reason of any action alleged to have been taken or omitted in such capacity or in any other capacity while serving as a director, officer, partner, employee or trustee, against all expenses (including attorneys’ fees) and, to the extent permitted by law, amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by or on behalf of Indemnitee in connection with such action, suit or proceeding and any appeal therefrom, if Indemnitee acted in good faith and in a manner which Indemnitee reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of

Exhibit A – Page 4

the Corporation, except that no indemnification shall be made under this Section 2 in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which Indemnitee shall have been adjudged to be liable to the Corporation, unless, and only to the extent, that the Court of Chancery of Delaware or the court in which such action or suit was brought shall determine upon application that, despite the adjudication of such liability but in view of all the circumstances of the case, Indemnitee is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses (including attorneys’ fees) which the Court of Chancery of Delaware or such other court shall deem proper.

3. Indemnification for Expenses of Successful Party. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Article X, to the extent that an Indemnitee has been successful, on the merits or otherwise, in defense of any action, suit or proceeding referred to in Sections 1 and 2 of this Article X, or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, or on appeal from any such action, suit or proceeding, Indemnitee shall be indemnified against all expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by or on behalf of Indemnitee in connection therewith.

4. Notification and Defense of Claim. As a condition precedent to an Indemnitee’s right to be indemnified, such Indemnitee must notify the Corporation in writing as soon as practicable of any action, suit, proceeding or investigation involving such Indemnitee for which indemnity will or could be sought. With respect to any action, suit, proceeding or investigation of which the Corporation is so notified, the Corporation will be entitled to participate therein at its own expense and/or to assume the defense thereof at its own expense, with legal counsel reasonably acceptable to Indemnitee. After notice from the Corporation to Indemnitee of its election so to assume such defense, the Corporation shall not be liable to Indemnitee for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by Indemnitee in connection with such action, suit, proceeding or investigation, other than as provided below in this Section 4. Indemnitee shall have the right to

Exhibit A – Page 5

employ his or her own counsel in connection with such action, suit, proceeding or investigation, but the fees and expenses of such counsel incurred after notice from the Corporation of its assumption of the defense thereof shall be at the expense of Indemnitee unless (i) the employment of counsel by Indemnitee has been authorized by the Corporation, (ii) counsel to Indemnitee shall have reasonably concluded that there may be a conflict of interest or position on any significant issue between the Corporation and Indemnitee in the conduct of the defense of such action, suit, proceeding or investigation or (iii) the Corporation shall not in fact have employed counsel to assume the defense of such action, suit, proceeding or investigation, in each of which cases the fees and expenses of counsel for Indemnitee shall be at the expense of the Corporation, except as otherwise expressly provided by this Article X. The Corporation shall not be entitled, without the consent of Indemnitee, to assume the defense of any claim brought by or in the right of the Corporation or as to which counsel for Indemnitee shall have reasonably made the conclusion provided for in clause (ii) above. The Corporation shall not be required to indemnify Indemnitee under this Article X for any amounts paid in settlement of any action, suit, proceeding or investigation effected without its written consent. The Corporation shall not settle any action, suit, proceeding or investigation in any manner which would impose any penalty or limitation on Indemnitee without Indemnitee’s written consent. Neither the Corporation nor Indemnitee will unreasonably withhold or delay its consent to any proposed settlement.

5. Advance of Expenses. Subject to the provisions of Section 6 of this Article X, in the event of any threatened or pending action, suit, proceeding or investigation of which the Corporation receives notice under this Article X, any expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by or on behalf of Indemnitee in defending an action, suit, proceeding or investigation or any appeal therefrom shall be paid by the Corporation in advance of the final disposition of

Exhibit A – Page 6

such matter; provided, however, that if the General Corporation Law of Delaware requires, an advancement of expenses incurred by an Indemnitee in his or her capacity as a director or officer (and not in any other capacity in which service was or is rendered by such Indemnitee, including, without limitation, service to an employee benefit plan) the payment of such expenses incurred by or on behalf of Indemnitee in advance of the final disposition of such matter shall be made only upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of Indemnitee to repay all amounts so advanced in the event that it shall ultimately be determined by final judicial decision from which there is no further right to appeal that Indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified by the Corporation as authorized in this Article X; and further provided that no such advancement of expenses shall be made under this Article X if it is determined (in the manner described in Section 6) that (i) Indemnitee did not act in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the Corporation, or (ii) with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, Indemnitee had reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful. Such undertaking shall be accepted without reference to the financial ability of Indemnitee to make such repayment.

6. Procedure for Indemnification and Advancement. In order to obtain indemnification or advancement of expenses pursuant to Section 1, 2, 3 or 5 of this Article X, an Indemnitee shall submit to the Corporation a written request. Any such advancement of expenses shall be made promptly, and in any event within 60 days after receipt by the Corporation of the written request of Indemnitee, unless (i) the Corporation has assumed the defense pursuant to Section 4 of this Article X (and none of the circumstances described in Section 4 of this Article X that would nonetheless entitle the Indemnitee to indemnification for the fees and expenses of separate counsel have occurred) or (ii) the Corporation determines within such 60-day period that

Exhibit A – Page 7

Indemnitee did not meet the applicable standard of conduct set forth in Section 1, 2 or 5 of this Article X, as the case may be. Any such indemnification, unless ordered by a court, shall be made with respect to requests under Section 1 or 2 only as authorized in the specific case upon a determination by the Corporation that the indemnification of Indemnitee is proper because Indemnitee has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in Section 1 or 2, as the case may be. Such determination shall be made in each instance (a) by a majority vote of the directors of the Corporation consisting of persons who are not at that time parties to the action, suit or proceeding in question (“disinterested directors”), whether or not a quorum, (b) by a committee of disinterested directors designated by majority vote of disinterested directors, whether or not a quorum, (c) if there are no disinterested directors, or if the disinterested directors so direct, by independent legal counsel (who may, to the extent permitted by law, be regular legal counsel to the Corporation) in a written opinion, or (d) by the stockholders of the Corporation.

7. Remedies. The right to indemnification or advancement of expenses as granted by this Article X shall be enforceable by Indemnitee in any court of competent jurisdiction. Neither the failure of the Corporation to have made a determination prior to the commencement of such action that indemnification is proper in the circumstances because Indemnitee has met the applicable standard of conduct, nor an actual determination by the Corporation pursuant to Section 6 of this Article X that Indemnitee has not met such applicable standard of conduct, shall be a defense to the action or create a presumption that Indemnitee has not met the applicable standard of conduct. In any suit brought by the Indemnitee to enforce a right to indemnification, or brought by the Corporation to recover an advancement of expenses pursuant to the terms of an undertaking, the burden of proving that the Indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified, or to such advancement of expenses, under this Article X or otherwise shall be on the Corporation.

Exhibit A – Page 8

Indemnitee’s expenses (including attorneys’ fees) reasonably incurred in connection with successfully establishing Indemnitee’s right to indemnification, in whole or in part, in any such proceeding shall also be indemnified by the Corporation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in (i) any suit brought by the Indemnitee to enforce a right to indemnification hereunder (but not in a suit brought by the Corporation to recover an advancement of expenses) it shall be a defense that, and (ii) in any suit brought by the Corporation to recover an advancement of expenses pursuant to the terms of an undertaking, the Corporation shall be entitled to recover such expenses upon a final adjudication that, the Indemnitee has not met any applicable standard for indemnification set forth in the General Corporation Law of Delaware.

8. Limitations. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Article, except as set forth in Section 7 of this Article X, the Corporation shall not indemnify an Indemnitee pursuant to this Article X in connection with a proceeding (or part thereof) initiated by such Indemnitee unless the initiation thereof was approved by the Board of Directors of the Corporation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Article X, the Corporation shall not indemnify an Indemnitee to the extent such Indemnitee is reimbursed from the proceeds of insurance, and in the event the Corporation makes any indemnification payments to an Indemnitee and such Indemnitee is subsequently reimbursed from the proceeds of insurance, such Indemnitee shall promptly refund indemnification payments to the Corporation to the extent of such insurance reimbursement.

9. Subsequent Amendment. No amendment, termination or repeal of this Article X or of the relevant provisions of the General Corporation Law of Delaware or any other applicable laws shall adversely affect or diminish in any way the rights of any Indemnitee to indemnification under the provisions hereof with respect to any action, suit, proceeding or investigation arising

Exhibit A – Page 9

out of or relating to any actions, transactions or facts occurring prior to the final adoption of such amendment, termination or repeal.

10. Other Rights. The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by this Article X shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which an Indemnitee seeking indemnification or advancement of expenses may be entitled under any law (common or statutory), agreement or vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise, both as to action in Indemnitee’s official capacity and as to action in any other capacity while holding office for the Corporation, and shall continue as to an Indemnitee who has ceased to be a director or officer, and shall inure to the benefit of the estate, heirs, executors and administrators of Indemnitee. Nothing contained in this Article X shall be deemed to prohibit, and the Corporation is specifically authorized to enter into, agreements with officers and directors providing indemnification rights and procedures different from those set forth in this Article X. In addition, the Corporation may, to the extent authorized from time to time by its Board of Directors, grant indemnification rights to other employees or agents of the Corporation or other persons serving the Corporation and such rights may be equivalent to, or greater or less than, those set forth in this Article X.

11. Partial Indemnification. If an Indemnitee is entitled under any provision of this Article X to indemnification by the Corporation for some or a portion of the expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines or amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by or on behalf of Indemnitee in connection with any action, suit, proceeding or investigation and any appeal therefrom but not, however, for the total amount thereof, the Corporation shall nevertheless indemnify Indemnitee for the portion of such expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines or amounts paid in settlement to which Indemnitee is entitled.
